Chapter 668 Technology Partner System

After returning to Berlin from Dresden, Hu Yang spent two more days with his wife and son, and then took the opportunity to arrive in Paris.

Tian Sichun has always wanted to come to Paris for shopping, but in the past two years, all his energy has been focused on Xiao Yifei, and he really doesn't have much free time.

This time I’m in Germany, so there’s no reason why I shouldn’t come to Paris to see it.

However, Tian Sichun got bored after two days in Paris. The key is that the little guy seems a little uncomfortable with the environment here.

Hu Yang made a prompt decision and asked Wu Xinhui to apply for a route and return directly to the deep sea.

Anyway, if I want to come to Paris again, there will be many opportunities in the future. It is really easy to spend an occasional weekend shopping.

"Brother Hu, you've done a good job building your family."

The day after returning to Shenhai, Chen Jialin asked Populus euphratica out for dinner. He knew that Populus euphratica was taking Tian Sichun and Xiao Yifei with him on this trip to Europe, so he was a little envious.

"I think it's great! If I hadn't suddenly thought of taking them to Europe, I might have missed an important investment opportunity..."

Hu Yang smiled and then told Chen Jialin about meeting Yi Jun in Germany.

"Anyway, it has always been your ideal to build the entire semiconductor industry chain. If Elbe Semiconductor can develop smoothly, our Huijia department will have made up for another important shortcoming.

However, this company has only been established recently, so we still need to do a risk assessment later. Okay, let’s not talk about these things and just drink and drink..."

Chen Jialin is very familiar with the current situation of the semiconductor industry, especially the semiconductor equipment market, which has been almost divided up by international giants. Starting to develop etching equipment now is really like grabbing some meat from a tiger's mouth, and the risks are not small.

.

He reminded him casually and said no more.

Hu Yang has his own style and considerations in doing things, and Chen Jialin doesn't think he can see more clearly than others.

The next day.

Not long after Hu Yang sat down in the office, Wu Xinhui walked in and said, "Mr. Hu, Director Yi from Elbe Semiconductor called and asked if you are free to see him?"

"Huh? How did he know that I had returned to the deep sea? I originally wanted to call him later today."

Hu Yang was a little surprised, could this Yi Jun be able to count?

"Mr. Hu, Mr. Yi has been in Shenhai for two days. He is calling today just to ask if you are back. If you are back, he wants to come and visit you. I'm sorry, I didn't express myself clearly enough."

Wu Xinhui smiled apologetically. She omitted the middle paragraph of what she just said. It was not a big deal at first, but who made Hu Yang suddenly become curious.

"Oh, that's right. That's okay. Just call Yi Dong back and tell him that I'll be waiting for him in the office in the morning and he can come directly."

Hu Yang smiled and waved his hand, asking Wu Xinhui to call Yi Jun.

Then, he called Xia Bing to the office.

"Boss, Dingcheng Precision Machinery is interested in having in-depth cooperation with us. I have learned more about it during this period, and so far Dingcheng Precision Machinery is the preferred partner."

Before Xia Bing could sit down, she started talking about looking for cooperative companies in the field of precision machinery.

"Okay, you can have a formal discussion with them. My requirements are not high. There is no problem in establishing a joint venture, but it must be dominated by our side and the initiative cannot be handed over."

Hu Yang also thought about setting up a wholly foreign-owned enterprise directly in China, but he was not familiar with the domestic precision machinery market, so setting up a joint venture was still his first choice.

"Okay, I'll send someone back to start negotiations with them. Boss, you asked me to come up. Do you have anything else?"

Xia Bing nodded, she must be in charge of the negotiation, and there is no need for Hu Yang to personally take part in such matters.

"Well, Mr. Yi Jun, the chairman of Elbe Semiconductor, is coming soon. His company's main business projects are the production and research and development of etching equipment, MOCVD equipment, etc. He wants us to finance Elbe Semiconductor."

Hu Yang briefly introduced Yibei Semiconductor and Yi Jun's team. He planned to ask Xia Bing to meet Yi Jun with him. If both parties were interested, the investment would be left to Xia Bing.

Xia Bing is indeed very busy recently, but as long as the issue of principle is settled, the specific negotiations can be held in Shanghai.

Huijia International Investment (Pudong) Company is fully qualified for this job, and Wang Qingquan can be arranged to take charge when the time comes.

Hu Yang was talking to Xia Bing while handling official duties. Half an hour passed before he knew it. Wu Xinhui knocked on the door and came in and said that Yi Jun had arrived.

"Mr. Xia, let's go to the reception room to meet this Director Yi."

Hu Yang closed the documents on the table, stood up and walked out with Xia Bing to the small reception room.

"Hello, Mr. Hu! Duden came to China with me this time. He also wanted to meet you, so I brought him with me."

Yi Jun came to see Hu Yang this time with the idea of ​​getting in touch first. After all, it was a large investment, and it was impossible to finalize it after just one meeting.

Hu Yang smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, I am also very interested in Mr. Duden."

Yi Jun and Du Deng looked at each other, with a hint of joy in their eyes. Du Deng was originally thinking about whether he could get closer to Hu Yang, and he also wanted to go to Bolong Optics to develop. Seeing Hu Yang's attitude, this matter

Children have fun.

Before Hu Yang sat down, he introduced Xia Bing to Yi Jun and others.

Yi Jun didn't pay much attention to Xia Bing at first, but this introduction made him immediately take Xia Bing seriously.

The four of them sat in the reception room and chatted for almost forty minutes. The topics involved were not too specific, just general.

Hu Yang showed sufficient interest in Yibei Semiconductor and also hinted to Yi Jun that he had plans to invest.

Yi Jun also expressed his hope to win the favor of Huijia Department. He and his team are confident that they can develop rapidly with the support of Huijia Department.

"Director Yi, please take the time to talk to Mr. Xia in detail later. Mr. Xia is responsible for all the business of Huijia International Investment, and the decisions she makes can completely represent me.

You two, it’s noon now, how about you stay and have lunch together?”

Hu Yang looked at his watch and saw that it was almost lunch time again, so he said politely.

However, this sentence also dispelled Xia Bing's idea of ​​handing over the negotiation matter to Wang Qingquan.

"Would it be too intrusive? If not, Duden and I would be honored."

After all, Yi Jun couldn't let go in front of Hu Yang, and he was very polite in everything he said and did.

"Don't bother me, it's just a light meal."

Hu Yang smiled and asked Wu Xinhui to make arrangements. After sitting for a while, the four of them came to the small restaurant next door.

"Mr. Hu, I really envy your office environment."

When coming out of the reception room, Xia Bing introduced the layout of the entire floor to the guests. Hu Yang saw looks of surprise and envy in the eyes of Yi Jun and Du Deng.

Especially Yi Jun, he has never seen such a luxurious office environment in his more than 20 years in Silicon Valley.

"Please, you two, let's have something for lunch."

Yi Jun's words were difficult for Hu Yang to answer, so he simply asked everyone to start eating.

There were no drinks arranged for lunch, but the dishes were very rich, mainly Cantonese cuisine. It was not surprising that Yi Jun was used to it, but Du Deng was not expected to be very adaptable to such tastes.

"Mr. Hu, I came from Germany this time just because I want to develop in China. To be honest, I would rather like to visit Bolong Optics. Can you introduce me to it?"

Duden knew that Hu Yang would not care about the specific affairs of Bolong Optical, but with the other party's introduction, he would definitely attract people's attention when he went there.

"Mr. Duden, you are welcome to come to China for development. I will call Mr. Zhang from Bolong Optics later. You can go to him directly by then."

Of course there is no problem with this kind of thing. Du Deng's quality will be verified by Zhang Xiao and others. Hu Yang is just doing a favor.

If Duden's ability can match his reputation, Bolong Optics will naturally give him generous treatment.

"Haha, thank you Mr. Hu."

Duden was very happy because Populus euphratica gave him face.

After the meal was finished, the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves.

In the afternoon, Duden left the investment building and went shopping alone with his bag on his back. Yi Jun stayed and started substantive negotiations with Xia Bing.

Before leaving get off work, Xia Bing came to Hu Yang's office again.

"Boss, Director Yi's financing plan has a relatively high equity premium. He hopes that we can invest 2 billion yuan, but he can only give us 45% of the equity. At the same time, he can only give us one of the five board seats. In other words,

We only have 20% of the voting rights."

Xia Bing didn't think the conditions proposed by Yi Jun were very harsh.

Introducing a behemoth like Huijia to become a shareholder of the company has advantages and disadvantages. The biggest disadvantage is that the entrepreneurial team is afraid of losing control of the company.

Therefore, when Yi Jun introduced the state-owned assets of Modu, he only gave the other party 10% of the voting rights. Naturally, the Huijia system would not be an exception.

"The voting rights don't matter. I don't intend to control Elbe Semiconductor Equipment anyway. You can discuss the investment amount and share ratio with the other party. I think 49% of the shares is more appropriate."

Hu Yang knew that the other party would not give him 50% of the equity, so he tried his best to fight for the upper limit.

"I think so too... Don't worry, boss, I think the other party will agree. I learned from other channels that the research and development of Elbe Semiconductor's first-generation etching equipment has reached the most critical period.

.

However, they are such a money-burning bunch. Except for the funds to maintain the normal operation of the company, all the rest of the funds have been invested in research and development. If they can't get financing again, what will they do?"

Xia Bing didn't say a word. Yi Jun, who was in his sixties, really had the temperament of a gambler. Anyway, she had never seen anyone doing business like this, leaving no escape route.

“Mr.

Hu Yang couldn't help but laugh. Yi Jun was an interesting person, but overall he still didn't get rid of the temperament of a science and engineering man.

In fact, Hu Yang doesn't have to be so fussy. A few percentage points of equity does not mean much to the Huijia Group.

However, this arduous negotiation process cannot be omitted, and both he and Xia Bing are well aware of the implications.
