Reborn Capital Madman

France's Thomson Company is indeed a yellow croaker - Liubianyou, because objectively, the Japan-US semiconductor war has impacted all other semiconductor companies outside the semiconductor industry, and Thomson Company cannot survive alone.

It wants to acquire mostec and ease the business problems it faces in a limited way, with more or less speculative meaning. When it encounters strong competition, it gives up without hesitation.

Afterwards, Thomson's dynamics explained its logic. Instead of wasting resources on mostec's joint technology company's sales of products, it is better to join forces with IDELIN's peer Microelectronics General Semiconductor Company to keep warm. Then, STMicroelectronics

produce.

It can be said that this period is another important reshuffle of the global semiconductor industry. For example, TSMC, which is famous in the "old script", has begun to be brewed.

The Xiangjiang Foreign Exchange Fund Administration, led by Gao Xian, has such abundant surplus and of course it has to constantly look for investment opportunities. Sometimes, the official can coordinate all parties, which can achieve the best results. The rise of the Asian semiconductor industry is

A best example.

Yiben and other member economies of the "Four Asian Tigers" have such a layout. Xiangjiang Development Investment Fund, a subsidiary of the Xiangjiang Foreign Exchange Fund Administration, will of course take action. It is working with Huanyu Electronics to establish Xiangjiang Semiconductor Company.

Gao Xian picked up "crash" in the United States, which is also to lay the foundation for Xiangjiang Semiconductor Company. Although Intel's semiconductor memory business and mostec's operations have declined, it is still enough to transfer to Xiangjiang compared to a backward technology that its peers have.

To operate it specifically, skills are still needed here. As the saying goes, people need clothes, Buddha needs gold.

The first-class semiconductor industry introduced technology from the US semiconductor industry in the early stages of development, and the first-class semiconductor industry in the South Korean semiconductor industry in the early stages of development, and the first-class semiconductor industry in the United States, the source of technology introduced was also rca and Philips.

a world-renowned company.

The psychological effect here naturally has its own reasons, and at least it can form enough authority to eliminate the noise of saying strange words in the specific implementation process.

Gaoxian introduced the starting resources of Xiangjiang Semiconductor Company, including Intel's semiconductor memory department and mostec, but in terms of global popularity, it has to be admitted that there are still some shortcomings.

So, when Gao Xian was picking up the "dirty" of the US semiconductor industry, his eyes gradually fell on the bigger settlement - Fairchild Semiconductor Company.

In beautiful words, the role of Fairchild Semiconductor Company in the history of semiconductor development is often the same. It occupies an important position in the development history of Silicon Valley and can be called the cradle of Silicon Valley. It has provided a large number of talents to Silicon Valley technology companies.

ZTE, founded by Intel and Super Micro, as well as National Semiconductor Corporation, have a close relationship with Fairchild Semiconductor Corporation.

But the facts behind this are ridiculous. Is Fairchild Semiconductor really that selfless? In fact, it cannot retain talents at all!

The root of Fairchild Semiconductor Company's decline lies in the fact that the "Eight Rebellions" led by Robert Noyce left Shockley Semiconductor Laboratory and, with the support of capital, founded Fairchild Semiconductor Company, fell into the root of being subject to capital.

.

Specifically, although Fairchild Semiconductor, located in Silicon Valley on the West Coast of the United States, contributes two-thirds of the sales revenue of the entire group, it is greatly restricted by its parent company on the East Coast of the United States.

Fairchild Semiconductor Company has made so much money, but it has been taken away by its parent company to do something else. The technical elites of Fairchild Semiconductor Company have seriously neglected the demand for equity subscription.

Everyone worked so hard, what did you want? If you don’t get satisfactory treatment, you will naturally accumulate it over time. The first big guy who left was Charles Spock, the operation manager, who brought a bunch of confidants to the country.

Semiconductor companies are the bosses.

In the late 1960s, due to the intensification of competition in the semiconductor industry, new and old technologies began to iterate again, Fairchild Semiconductor Company's profits turned sharply, which further intensified internal contradictions.

First of all, the parent company's CEO John Cartley was held accountable by the board of directors, and the old man was quite straightforward and resigned directly.

Originally, with Robert Noyce's credit and qualifications, it was naturally enough to take over as the CEO of the parent company, but the board of directors selected Richard Hodgson.

A soldier can be killed but not humiliated. Robert Noyce took Gordon Moore to start Intel.

The vacancy left by Robert Noyce is so important, and someone must take it. As a result, the board of directors of Fairchild Photography Equipment Company, the parent company of Fairchild Semiconductor, made a big move and put Les, the head of Motorola's semiconductor department.

Te Hogan dug it up.

This time, Lester Hogan took away a lot of subordinates in addition to joining Fairchild Semiconductor Company. How could Motorola not be anxious and immediately sued. Although he didn't win in the end, Fairchild was not a winner.

In order to compromise, semiconductor companies demoted Leicester Hogan to vice president.

In this process, Lester Hogan first brought a lot of confidants, inevitably squeezed away some old employees of Fairchild Semiconductor Company; then Lester Hogan was thrown into the cold palace, so

His confidants' morale dropped sharply and they were seeking a way out. How could the loss of talents not be serious?

In the following 1970s, Fairchild Semiconductor's business was like a headless fly, and even launched home TV game console products. It was declining, and finally in 1979, with the parent company

Fairchild Photography Equipment Company was acquired by the oil field service company Schlumberger.

The reason why we take a look at the decline of Fairchild Semiconductor Company is mainly to illustrate that technology is important, but not absolute. When it comes to Xiangjiang Semiconductor Company, as long as we achieve organic integration of all aspects, we can achieve good results.

Gao Xian's eyes are very simple. Fairchild's semiconductor company's value is at a low point. In contrast, the years of accumulation in technology, patents, products, etc. are worth it, especially suitable.

The situation where the semiconductor industry like Xiangjiang needs to start from the basics, and in terms of brand awareness, Fairchild Semiconductor Company can still support the situation.

After several rounds of contact with Schlumberger, the news brought back was that Schlumberger has indeed made up his mind to sell Fairchild Semiconductor. The key issue is the surplus value of Fairchild Semiconductor and the corresponding quotation.

Game.

The motivation for Schlumberger to acquire Fairchild Photography Equipment Company was the advanced imaging technology and products of Fairchild Photography Equipment Company, which was of great value to Schlumberger's oil field service business. Fairchild Semiconductor Company was equivalent to taking over by the way.

Strictly speaking, Fairchild Semiconductor Company is not making no contribution to Schlumberger. It established an artificial intelligence research laboratory in 1980, which is very pleased Schlumberger.

William Miller said: "This AI research lab was released not long ago and is obviously not on the sale list."

Gao Xian nodded indifferently. He was also using his resources to conduct artificial intelligence research without showing off, so that "small outfits" can have more places to accommodate. Schlumberger's company treats it as a treasure.

, he really doesn't like it, and even the artificial intelligence that ibm is engaged in, he doesn't take it seriously. After all, the gap between the starting points is not an exaggeration to describe it as a gap.

William Miller continued: "Shromberger is very smart. It also listed the testing department of Fairchild Semiconductor, which designs and produces automated testing equipment for the semiconductor manufacturing industry, and is operating in a good state."

Gao Xian was amused, "What is the valuation of the assets of Fairchild Semiconductor Company?"

"It's about $200 million, Schlumberger has basically no objection." William Miller replied: "I just received the news that National Semiconductor Corporation has also shown interest in acquiring Fairchild Semiconductor."

There are still three thousand nails on the Broken Ship, and Gao Xian has no objection. He made a decision: "Then you can take over Xiantong Semiconductor Company as soon as possible, and then integrate resources with Intel's semiconductor memory business and mostec. In the name of Xiantong Semiconductor Company, you can invest in Xiangjiang.

Semiconductor companies, with their cost advantages there, can at least bring Fairchild Semiconductors back to life.”

The "resurrection" in Sir Gao's words is quite knowledgeable. This is the mystery of his unimpeded picking up "dirty" in the US semiconductor industry and his ability to win gratitude.

In the process of acquiring Fairchild Semiconductor, the National Semiconductor Company under Charles Spock did not constitute a substantial obstacle because it did not have the confidence to compete for financial resources.

When Charles Spock left Fairchild Semiconductor and became the CEO of National Semiconductor, National Semiconductor was in a period of financial difficulties.

Charles Spock's response strategy was to focus on the large-scale production of low-cost computer chips, thereby leading the national semiconductor company through difficulties and creating a ZTE period with remarkable corporate operations.

But facing a more competitive chip for its peers, although the National Semiconductor Company has not been as shocked as Intel and Mostec, the pressure is real. I dare not really consume the acquisition of Fairchild Semiconductor Company.

Valuable funds beyond budget.

When the $50 million Intel semiconductor memory department, $80 million Mostec, and $200 million Fairchild Semiconductor Company were pinched together by Gaoxian, the technical foundation of the Xiangjiang Semiconductor Company was built. Next,

The focus can be turned to the human relationships around Xiangjiang Semiconductor Company, such as investment ratio, profit distribution, team allocation, incentive plans, etc.
