Chapter 350 Acquisition of "Ripper"

Xia Bing introduced the basic situation of Riper Company, and then said: "We analyzed that the reason why Riper Company failed to obtain the first round of financing is related to the fact that its three co-founders could not see their own strength."

Yan Hanzhang pondered for a moment and said: "Mr.

Xia Bing shook his head, "I haven't contacted Ripper yet, and I don't know Yang Chenglin's character and behavior. It's difficult for me to answer this question."

Next, Xu Younian and Wan Qingshan both expressed their opinions. Generally speaking, they tended to only poach people and not acquire companies.

"I have listened to everyone's opinions. Your ideas are all very good. However, you may have overlooked one thing, that is, Ruipo Company is a newly founded company by Yang Chenglin and two other people. Although their current financing situation is not very good,

I am optimistic, but I think Dr. Yang Chenglin will not easily give up the project he founded.

Well, today's regular meeting ends here. I plan to go to the United States in person to meet with Dr. Yang Chenglin and see what he thinks."

Hu Yang thought for a while and decided to go to the United States in person.

After lunch, Xu Younian and others left the investment building. Before Xia Bing left, she made a special trip to Hu Yang's office.

"Mr. Hu, how about I go there?"

Xia Bing felt that the North American company was in charge of itself, and it seemed a bit unreasonable that the boss would have to personally handle a small acquisition.

Hu Yang smiled and said, “Mr.

When Xia Bing saw Populus euphratica saying this, he stopped saying anything and then returned to Xiangjiang.

Hu Yang immediately asked Lin Yan to arrange the trip. This time when he went to the United States, in addition to taking the people around him, he also named Shao Qing to take with him.

Shao Qing acted as Hu Yang's translator last time and accompanied him to the United States.

Lin Yan quickly applied for the visa, and Hu Yang and his party set off from Shenhai, passed through Tokyo, and then flew directly to San Francisco.

"Hello, Mr. Hu! Hello, Assistant Lin!"

The person who came to greet us at the airport was the person in charge of the North American company, whose surname was Liao. He used to work at the Huijia International Investment Headquarters in Xiangjiang and was transferred here after the establishment of the North American company.

"Hello, Manager Liao. You can send us to the hotel first, and I will go to the company to see you tomorrow."

Hu Yang smiled and shook hands with Manager Liao, and then everyone got in the car.

This trip, in addition to Lin Yan, Han Wen, Li Jie, Shao Qing, and Hu Yang, Lu Dacheng was also brought along, so there were a larger number of people. Fortunately, Manager Liao brought a government car to pick him up, so everyone could sit down.

The hotel is still booked at the Ritz-Carlton.

"Mr. Hu, Assistant Lin, then you should have a good rest. You just came from China, so the jet lag is quite hard. It's morning time now. I'll pick you up for dinner in the evening."

Manager Liao sent Hu Yang and his party to the hotel, then said goodbye and left. In the evening, he arranged a small dinner party, mainly attended by internal personnel from North American companies and research institutions.

Hu Yang did not refuse. If he met everyone in an informal setting first, the atmosphere would be better.

We had something to eat at the hotel at noon, and everyone went back to their rooms to rest. Due to jet lag, Populus euphratica only took a nap for a while and then got up.

"Mr. Hu, have you arrived in San Francisco? I'm so sorry, I didn't even go to the airport to pick you up. Where are you now? If it's convenient, I'll take someone to see you."

The call was from Sun Yunyi. He knew that Hu Yang would arrive in San Francisco today. He had also said before that he would pick up Hu Yang, but since Manager Liao was there to pick him up, Hu Yang didn't bother him.

"Haha, you're talking about Dr. Yang Chenglin? Okay, let's meet at the hotel's coffee shop in an hour."

Hu Yang did not expect that Yang Chenglin would not hide his urgent mood. As soon as the plane landed today, Yang Chenglin asked Sun Yunyi to bring him to see Hu Yang.

After calculating the time, Hu Yang and Lin Yan arrived at the coffee shop in advance. Not long after they sat down, Sun Yunyi came over with a man in his thirties wearing glasses.

"I'm Hu Yang, nice to meet you two. This is my assistant, Miss Lin Yan."

Hu Yang stood up and introduced himself first.

"Mr. Hu, your progress looks good. This is my good friend Dr. Yang Chenglin, the CEO of Ripper."

Sun Yunyi talked and laughed happily and introduced Yang Chenglin to Hu Yang and Lin Yan.

"Hello, Mr. Hu, I am Yang Chenglin. This is my business card."

Yang Chenglin smiled and greeted him, and immediately took out his business card and handed it to Hu Yang with both hands.

"Please take a seat. You can order whatever you want to drink."

Hu Yang took the business card and several people sat down one after another.

"Mr. Hu, you must stay a few days longer this time. I remember you said you wanted to treat me to a drink, right? I've been waiting for you."

After sitting down, Sun Yunyi and Yang Chenglin each ordered a cup of coffee, and Sun Yunyi and Hu Yang began to chat.

"What's the big deal? I'll treat you to a drink in two days, I'm afraid you won't be able to drink enough."

Hu Yang smiled and was not in a hurry to get to the point.

Yang Chenglin felt a little restless and glanced at Sun Yunyi several times, but the other party pretended not to see him.

After chatting for about ten minutes, Sun Yunyi stopped and said with a smile: "Mr. Hu, you see Dr. Yang is anxious. Well, my company still has something to do, so you can talk slowly, and I will take the first step."

Hu Yang waved his hand and said, "Go and do your work. I'll give you a call when I get back. Then we'll get drunk and rest."

Lin Yan stood up and sent Sun Yunyi out on behalf of Hu Yang.

Hu Yang looked at Yang Chenglin and smiled: "Dr. Yang, I know that your Ripper company is looking for its first investment, so what can you tell me next? I will definitely listen."

Hu Yang actually had no intention of contacting Yang Chenglin as soon as he arrived in the United States, but since he took the initiative, he went straight to the point.

Yang Chenglin immediately sat up straight, took out some information from the briefcase he carried with him, and began to introduce his company to Hu Yang.

Yang Chenglin and the other two co-founders all have technical backgrounds, and all three of them have previous experience in Micron. Therefore, his introduction focused on the technical level.

"Mr. Hu, in order to avoid the technical patent barriers of other companies, our design structure is not yet mature. However, please rest assured that as long as you give us a little time, these problems will be solved."

Yang Chenglin talked a lot, and Hu Yang finally understood that the reason why Riper Company had difficulty finding investment was because their technology was not yet mature.

"Dr. Yang, I believe you also understand that your company is different from some innovative companies. Although the technology of some companies is not mature yet, because the project itself has unlimited possibilities, it will certainly be favored by big funds.

As for your Ripper company, please forgive me, your company's development path will be very difficult. You are engaged in technology, so you must know better than me. In the field of chip design, most of the market share has been monopolized by some giants.

."

Hu Yang’s statement is very objective. If a small company lacks funds and markets, it will be difficult for it to make major progress in technology. After all, R&D is also very expensive.

Yang Chenglin was slightly disappointed. It seemed that Hu Yang was not optimistic about his Ripper Company either.

Before coming, he had thought that he could try his best to persuade Hu Yang so that he could invest part of the capital, even if he had to make a larger concession on the shares.

But Hu Yang's words dispelled his extravagant hopes, and the miracle did not happen after all.

"Mr. Hu, I'm sorry, I think I should leave."

Yang Chenglin took a sip of coffee, put down the cup, put away the materials he brought, and then said something to Hu Yang with a smile.

"Don't worry, Dr. Yang. I don't agree with your financing plan, but it doesn't mean that I don't have the willingness to invest. Let me tell you my thoughts. I plan to fully acquire Ripper Company at a price you decide. As a joint venture of the company

Founders, the three of you can remain as the company’s management team, and you can also retain a small amount of equity.”
