Chapter 1826 chaos

Looking at Smith, who winked at him, Louis Jackson felt helpless. He finally knew why this guy had a bad reputation within Chuko.

He told Smith about this, just to make Smith more cooperative with 3DFX this time, and to cooperate with and help all the best. This is a completely different concept, but it was directly led by this guy.

Louis Jackson led the 3DFX team to New York, and not many people were paying attention. However, North American Trust and Investment Banks began to raise funds again, which made many rumors begin to appear. The technology industry will look at AMD and ATI toward North American Trust and Investment Banks.

The outside world began to speculate whether North American trust and investment banks or Chuke Technology have made any big moves, but they have not yet linked this matter with ATI.

After all, although the 3DFX graphics card is famous now, it is still more than apart from Nvidia, ATI, and AMD. With the support of Chuke, Onyx Technology and SG games, 3DFX can survive. This is the concept of the entire technology industry. However, if you want to replace Nvidia, ATI, etc., no one will have such an idea. The times have changed, and the glory of 3DFX has indeed disappeared.

When the IT technology industry was rumored that AMD was about to acquire ATI, the entire graphics card industry was in chaos. AMD launched a fierce attack on ATI. AMD wanted to swallow the entire ATi in one go and take over all business markets, personnel and production equipment in North America, Europe and Asia!

For this reason, AMD directly called out a purchase price that made the entire technology industry dumbfounded. At a price of 25% higher than ATi's current price per share, it earned 20 US dollars per share, and it earned ATi with a cash purchase of up to 4.2 billion US dollars!

Almost as soon as the news came out, ATi's stock price soared while AMD fell sharply. Obviously, investment institutions were not optimistic about AMD's shocking moves this time.

Such news has shocked the entire technology industry and it is a bit unreliable. The technology industry has been very popular in recent years, but is the ATi worth 4.2 billion US dollars?!

You know, in the graphics card industry, ATi is not irreplaceable. There are also a group of competitors. AMD actually called out such a high price, which is really beyond the expectations of the outside world.

What is even more surprising is that ATi seems to be a little unsatisfied with this price. He Guoyuan, founder and president of ATi in New York, directly rejected AMD's first offer, claiming that this offer "seriously underestimated the value of ATi"!

Later, the outside world learned why ATi had such confidence. After rejecting AMD's first offer, it was soon reported that Intel seemed to be preparing to enter the market, and directly raised the acquisition price by 15% on AMD's offer, and at a price of $23 per share, he wanted to maliciously swallow ATi.

It is unknown whether Intel wants to maliciously acquire ATi, but this news is definitely malicious for AMD. A rumor directly made AMD pay another $600 million. Some media called this acquisition a Boolean War, meaning that AMD will lose the last drop of blood for this acquisition.

After Intel made news, Nvidia also jumped out to make trouble, which made AMD very disgusted, claiming that Nvidia will also join the acquisition, and was not afraid of anti-monopoly at all, and wanted to buy ATi to build the world's largest graphics card manufacturer.

AMD, who originally wanted to make a quick decision, seemed to be trapped in a quagmire in an instant, and the acquisition cost began to rise. However, this did not seem surprising to AMD. AMD president Heitke Lu Yizhi, who arrived in New York, still claimed when facing the media that this was "expected".

Facing the reporter and the camera, Heitke Lu Yizhi looked relaxed and seemed to be sure to win, saying that AMD had sufficient ammunition. As for the reporter who jumped out of nowhere, he questioned whether AMD's acquisition would be too big and eventually put AMD in a quagmire and entered the embarrassing situation of fighting against Intel and Nvidia. Heitke Lu Yizhi still said that AMD is absolutely sure.

But after entering the car, Heitke Lu Yizhi's expression instantly became solemn. Only he himself understood whether he was in an awkward situation.

The reason why I have to go all out this time is that AMD has been losing money for seven consecutive years. With the hopelessness of defeating Intel in the processor industry in a short period of time, Heitke Lu Yizhi had to take risks and want to open up in the graphics card industry after acquiring ATi.

As for what Nvidia Lao Huang, who had a good relationship but was not wearing a pair of pants, he no longer cared about what his opinion was. He would not care about AMD's books and lead AMD to become the world's second largest chip manufacturer, he would be about to be swept out.

Sitting in the car and thinking about this acquisition, Heitke Lu Yizhi couldn't help but take off his glasses, his expression was a little dim. He also understood that this time he took the risk and the acquisition was successful and AMD's situation changed, then he would still be a legend in the IT technology industry, staged a drama where veterans never fade.

But if the acquisition of ATi costs far more than expected, and after the acquisition, AMD will make things worse, then this acquisition will become a death talisman for Heitke Lu Yizhi to leave the market in disgrace. Maybe it will take a long time to be swept out by the AMD board of directors.

"President Lu Yizhi," said the assistant sitting next to Heitek Lu Yizhi, looking at Heitek Lu Yizhi carefully, "Smith, President of North American Trust and Investment Bank, Smith, I'm sending you an invitation and want to invite you to attend today's party!"

"Little Smith?" Heitke Lu Yizhi asked, but his mind was not on Little Smith, but remembered a call he received a few days ago.

For Heitke Lu Yizhi, who has been immersed in the processor and graphics card industry for 22 years, if he had not become the general manager of 3DFX, then Louis Jackson would be just an insignificant junior. Even now, he is far inferior to Heitke Lu Yizhi.

But a few days ago, Louis Jackson suddenly called Heitke Lu Yizhi on behalf of 3DFX, who was in the Intel camp. Now he received an invitation from Smith Jr., which made Heitke Lu Yizhi feel that something must have happened.

"Has Louis Jackson, general manager of 3DFX also arrived in New York?!"

The assistant beside him saw Heitke Lu Yizhi who suddenly changed his face. He didn't know why Heitke Lu Yizhi suddenly mentioned the 3DFX graphics card. "I don't know, I'll go find out the news now..."

"No need," Heitke Lu Yizhi, who had a more tired face, began to close his eyes and rest. "If it was really like I thought, they would come and pick us up!"

When he was sitting in the car where Smith Jr. picked up Hetec Lu Yizhi and others and went to the party, the assistant looked at Hetec Lu Yizhi and felt a shocking feeling. He didn't know how Hetec Lu Yizhi was sure that Smith Jr. would definitely send someone over.
