657, mobile phone name
Make mobile phones.
Of course, Xia Yang had to think clearly. Mobile phones are definitely high-tech products, such as processing chips, baseband chips and other chips. Each of these requires a large number of engineers and R&D costs of at least several hundred million dollars to be successful.
A company like Apple spends at least several billion dollars on research and development every year, and even tens of billions of dollars more.
This is still mobile phone hardware.
There are also mobile phone software, such as the wds system developed by Microsoft, which cost at least 20 billion US dollars, and the ios system developed by Apple, which also cost at least 10 billion US dollars.
Successful research and development is not enough; large sums of money must be continuously invested in upgrading and iterating every year.
If you don’t want to spend money on patent royalties, you can say that if you want to make a mobile phone, you can only rely on money.
Xia Yang is not afraid of throwing money, and he also has money to throw. The problem is, Liu Taobao doesn't have that much money to throw.
Friends are friends, and business is business.
Obviously, he is constantly spending money on investment, but Liu Taobao cannot keep up. There is no doubt that Liu Taobao's shares in UMC will be continuously diluted, and he may eventually be reduced to a small shareholder holding only 23% of the shares.
This situation is something Xia Yang doesn't want to see. After all, UMC was left to her by Liu Taobao's grandfather.
Liu Taobao was very smart and guessed Xia Yang's worries, but he didn't care, "Sister Chushuang once told me that starting a business may be for money, but if one day you feel that running a business is not for money, then this person is a
an entrepreneur.”
"When my grandfather handed over UMC to me, I just wanted to keep UMC. After that, I wanted to work hard to make money and continue to expand UMC. After that, I suddenly felt that every employee of UMC should have a stable job.
Working and getting paid on time every month is the happiest thing.”
"So I don't care how many shares I hold in UMC. Even if my shares are diluted to only 1% in the end, I don't care. I just want to make the mobile phone myself and don't have to look at the faces of foreigners. Xia Yang, don't you
You know, how hateful those foreigners are, the patent royalties are so expensive, especially for Texas Instruments, the patent royalties are actually charged at 5% of the selling price of the product, it’s so bullying.”
Liu Taobao seemed to be extremely angry, hugging Xia Yang and shaking his arms.
Originally Liu Taobao could say these words, Xia Yang thought that Liu Taobao had finally grown up and matured, but he succeeded at the last moment and found the same delicate and savage Liu Taobao.
Liu Xincheng turned his face away, a little unable to bear to look directly at Liu Taobao, the dignified CEO of UMC with a market value of tens of billions, transformed into a cute little girl.
Chen Hong also opened her beautiful eyes, a little unbelievable. This is Miss Liu, whose face is usually as cold as ice outside.
On the contrary to Liu Xincheng and Chen Hong, Pan Huijing's eyes narrowed with laughter. If things continue like this, she might be able to hold her grandson in her arms soon.
"Okay, I support you in making mobile phones. By the way, besides funds, the most important thing is talents. You have to recruit people quickly."
Xia Yang reminded that in the high-tech field, sufficient funds are one aspect, but the key is talent.
However, Liu Taobao smiled playfully and said, "No need to dig, I have already opened a branch in the United States. Many talents in big companies such as Motorola and Texas Instruments are from our Bay Island. So far, I have recruited many talents.
Otherwise, how could I dare to boast to you, a big boss?"
"Not bad!"
Xia Yang Laohuai was relieved, Liu Taobao learned that before the soldiers and horses were moved, food and grass went first, and they entered the village quietly without using guns.
In his happiness, Xia Yang forgot that Pan Huijing and the others were present, hugged Liu Taobao over, and kissed her smooth forehead with a squeak.
After being praised by Xia Yang, Liu Taobao smiled so hard that her eyes turned into crescent moons. But when she came back to her senses and saw the joking looks in Pan Huijing and the other three's eyes, her face immediately turned red.
"I went upstairs to prepare information for Xia Yang. By the way, the name of the phone is Banana."
After leaving the words, Liu Taobao ran upstairs with a red face.
Banana phone?
Xia Yang was about to object, but Liu Taobao, who ran upstairs, seemed to have guessed that Xia Yang was going to object, and shouted loudly from upstairs, "The objection is invalid. This was decided unanimously by Sister Hong, Sister Hong, and Sister Chushuang."
name."
Named by Han Chushuang.
Xia Yang suddenly felt that Banana was a good name for a mobile phone.
In addition, since there are apples, it is normal to have more bananas, and bananas are more famous than apples because bananas are the most sold fruit in the world.
"Xia Yang, you guys chat, I'll go see how the lunch is prepared."
Maybe he saw that Xu Xincheng had other things to do with Xia Yang. After Liu Taobao went upstairs, Pan Huijing also left the living room.
Xu Xincheng really had something else to do with Xia Yang this time. He took out a beautifully made invitation from his briefcase, stood up and handed it to Xia Yang with both hands solemnly.
"Mr. Xia, this is the industrial expo held by our Zhuxin, please be sure to go and take a look."
Obviously, Xu Xincheng not only wanted Xia Yang's investment, but also wanted Xia Yang's orders.
Xia Yang took the invitation and shook his head with a smile, "If I have time, I will go over and have a look. If time does not allow, I will also send someone over."
"If you have time, the expo will be held in three days. I would like to invite Mr. Xia to visit us."
Xu Xincheng begged again.
Xu Xincheng made such a request, and three days was not a long wait.
Xia Yang only thought about it for a moment, then nodded and agreed, "Okay, I will go there then."
Xu Xincheng was overjoyed, "Thank you, Mr. Xia, for your support to Zhuxin Industries. By the way, I will fully cooperate with Lianhua Electronics to withdraw its shares. Also, how does Mr. Xia need my cooperation with the DuPonts consortium?"
Xia Yang smiled and said, "I will trouble you if UMC withdraws its shares. As for the Duponts consortium, there is no need to trouble Mayor Xu. I have already made arrangements."
It is not a trivial matter for a company with great potential like UMC to delist without letting anyone take a bite out of it. Once it is delisted, the impact on public opinion alone will be considerable, so Xu Xincheng is needed to help smooth things over.
Chen Hong sat aside and watched, feeling that Xu Xincheng was very sincere, but she had no idea that Xia Yang and Xu Xincheng had completed an exchange of interests.
Xu Xincheng helped resolve the delisting crisis of Lianhua Electronics. Xia Yang supported Zhuxin Industries.
Of course, support does not mean going to Zhuxin Industrial Expo twice. You must leave some orders.
"Okay, Mr. Xia, if you need help, please call me at any time. I will fully cooperate. Then don't disturb Mr. Xia and resign."

When leaving, Xu Xincheng was very happy. It was the greatest success to invite Xia Yang to the Zhuxin Industrial Expo this time.
"I feel like you have an exchange of interests, but I can't figure out what you exchanged with Mayor Xu?"
After Xu Xincheng left, Chen Hong asked Xia Yang curiously and very keenly.
"It's very simple. I will leave some industrial processing orders for Mayor Xu, and Mayor Xu will help me deal with the impact of UMC's delisting."
Xia Yang explained with a smile.
Chen Hong had a strange look on his face, and with a pleasant scent, he approached Xia Yang and asked mysteriously, "Is this the legendary collusion between government and businessmen?"
Suddenly Xia Yang shook his head and laughed, raised his hand and lightly tapped Chen Hong on the head, "It's just an exchange of interests, and there's no collusion between government and business, because the exchange between me and Mayor Xu did not occupy the interests of other people, or
Let other people's interests suffer."
Chen Hong covered her head and seemed to understand something, "Maybe the mayor is the mayor after all, and seeing that you have a very good relationship, you always have such clear calculations, isn't it?"
Xia Yang laughed again, "On the contrary, this is better. Just like when you go shopping to buy clothes, you pay and then take the clothes away, clean and fresh. Do you want to make friends with the person who sells clothes when you buy them?"
Even if you think about it, it's still annoying to have people selling clothes, after all, friends and stuff can sometimes be considered a burden."
Now Chen Hong understood a little bit, nodded and said, "You are right, it is most refreshing to exchange things with each other like buying things. No one owes anyone anything, and having friends is a burden. I understand this very well. I have
A good best friend has a very fragile mentality. She will come to me and cry non-stop when she encounters the smallest things. In order to take care of her, I sometimes can't sleep all night, but she sleeps like a pig. She is so annoyed.
I really regret knowing her."
Chen Hong looked regretful. Xia Yang laughed twice and tried to comfort her. At the same time, he was thinking that Chen Hong, his best friend, was that female star.
"By the way, how do you plan to deal with the DuPonts Consortium? I heard from Kexin and Taobao that the Duponts Consortium is very powerful. Even in the United States, it is a giant company with too many assets to count."
Chen Hong asked worriedly.
Xia Yang waved his hands easily, "It's okay, even giant companies have to deal with the law. It just so happens that what I don't lack most is a team of lawyers."
