Chapter 690

.

May 8rd, 66: 85 am.

The media personnel left the Jade Building happily. They had already gotten the news they wanted. Now, they had to race against time to get the news that the audience wanted to see out before noon.

In 7552, online news was already on the rise. Although it did not reach the level of coverage of future generations, online news had already occupied a niche.

In terms of timeliness, online news had more advantages. As long as there was news, it could be updated on the portal anytime. It did not have to wait for the printing process like newspapers and magazines.

After the interview with Craig Bereit, the senior vice president of Intel, some media personnel were preparing to release online news about the second round of cooperation between Intel and Dream Entertainment. They would first announce it on the Internet.

The first media reporter to complete the press release was from the BBC Television Station. Although there was an eight-hour difference between Great Britain and Xia Country, which was around 67 noon in Xia Country, and around 9 in the morning in Great Britain, the BBC Television Station reporter did his job and posted the news on the official BBC website for readers from other regions to watch.

…

"Intel's victory! AMD's defeat! "

Dream Entertainment in Shuangqing City, Xia Xia, announced a while ago that they would be developing a second game, Doomsday War. This news stimulated Intel and AMD, the two CPU manufacturing giants.

On May 8rd, Intel's Senior Vice President, Craig Berrett, personally led a negotiation team to Shuangqing City to start the negotiations with Dream Entertainment.

According to the interview with Intel's Senior Vice President, Mr. Craig Berrett, we learned that Intel and Dream Entertainment have reached an agreement. Both parties will start the second round of cooperation.

Intel and Dream Entertainment had successfully cooperated once before. They jointly released a personal game server for "Brave World." This cooperation provided Intel with a conservative estimate of 6 billion USD in profits. At the same time, Intel's share price rose by more than 6 USD. Intel's share price reached a high of 71.76 USD.

If Intel was the biggest beneficiary of this cooperation, then AMD would be the sacrificial lamb. It was rumored that AMD's Senior Vice President, Tom Clusi, was also in Shuangqing City. However, there was no news about AMD and Dream Entertainment's cooperation.

The above news was reported by BBC's reporter in Shuangqing City, Kermorton Andorra.

…

Shuangqing City's Shuangqing Television Station also reported this matter on their news channel. The news host, Hu Ke, reported this with a smile on her face during the afternoon news.

"Good afternoon, everyone. This is Shuangqing TV's noon news channel." Hu Ke greeted the audience with a dignified expression and a faint smile.

"Today is the third day of the seven golden days of May Day. Today, something big happened in Shuangqing City. The senior vice presidents of the world-renowned chip manufacturing giant Intel and the senior vice presidents of AMD appeared in Shuangqing City. Shuangqing City's Dream Entertainment is the reason why the two chip manufacturing giants are moving together. " Hu Ke intentionally treated Dream Entertainment as a local company in Shuangqing City. This was to increase the topic of the news and arouse the pride of the local audience in Shuangqing City.

"We were fortunate enough to interview Mr. Craig Berrett, the senior vice president of Intel. According to Mr. Berrett's answer, Intel and Dream Entertainment have reached an agreement on cooperation. This agreement is definitely not good news for AMD, especially since AMD's current situation is not good. They hope to cooperate with Dream Entertainment to turn their bad situation around. " Hu Ke spoke with fervor and assurance. Some schematic diagrams of AMD's troubles were shown on the news screen.

"Although we don't know the details of the cooperation agreement between Intel and Dream Entertainment, it's not difficult to guess that Dream Entertainment will gain a lot of benefits from the cooperation this time. They might even get a share of the profits." Hu Ke guessed the truth but not the outcome.

Intel and Dream Entertainment would never be able to work together!

…

Shuanghu District, Green Lake Hotel.

Not only did Intel's Craig Bereit live here, but AMD's Tom Clusi also lived here!

In Tom Clusi's room, he was furious. He scolded angrily, "D * mn Intel, d * mn Craig, when did they come to Shuangqing City? How dare they reach an agreement with Dream Entertainment before us! "

AMD's think tank staff, Kira Katara, sat opposite Tom Clusi calmly. He held a glass of soda water and swirled it like wine.

"President Tom, don't worry. Intel and Dream Entertainment didn't reach an agreement!" Kira Katara said calmly.

Tom Clusi was stunned. "They didn't reach an agreement?"

"Of course!" Kira Katara said seriously. "It's such an important cooperation. If Dream Entertainment and Intel really reached an agreement, how could they not hold a press conference? They held a press conference the first time they cooperated. How could they forget this time? The only explanation is that they didn't reach an agreement. "

Tom Clusi calmed down and thought carefully for a moment. Indeed, it was as Kira Katara had analyzed. He had just been disturbed by the news of Intel and Dream Entertainment's cooperation, causing him to lose his most basic judgment.

"Hmph! What a good Craig, to actually play these little tricks! "After Tom Clancy understood, a cold smile appeared on his face. "Intel and Dream Entertainment must have reached an agreement on a preliminary cooperation. Kira, what should we do now? "

Kira Katara smiled easily. "Intel can't compete with us. We can share 05% or even 35% of the profits with Dream Entertainment. Can Intel do that? They can't share most of the profits with Dream Entertainment! President Tom, we're already on the winning side! "

Tom Clusi was relieved after listening to Kira Katara's analysis. As long as AMD could obtain the final victory, it didn't matter if they had to pay a price.

"Kira, when are we going to negotiate with Dream Entertainment? This afternoon? "Although Tom Clusi had his own ideas, he was willing to listen to the suggestions of the think tank staff.

"That's a good idea!" Kira Katara seconded in agreement. "This afternoon is a good opportunity. We can discuss with Dream Entertainment and list out AMD's advantages."

Although Kira Katara and Tom Clusi deduced that Intel and Dream Entertainment didn't sign an agreement, they didn't know that Dream Entertainment didn't intend to sign an agreement with AMD either.

At two in the afternoon, Tom Clusi called Dream Entertainment. He was confident that he could convince Dream Entertainment to sign a cooperation agreement with AMD to suppress their competitor, Intel.

Tom Clusi had even thought of how magnanimous he should be during the negotiation with Dream Entertainment. He would directly use high profits to split the profits, smashing Dream Entertainment's negotiators into a daze before finally signing the agreement.

However, Tom Clusi was overthinking! Everything was just Tom Clusi's own fantasy!

Tom Clusi called Dream Entertainment and got the answer that the person in charge wasn't in the company and couldn't handle the negotiation.

This result was completely different from what Tom Clusi had imagined!

“Fu.ck！” Tom Clusi angrily threw the hotel phone on the floor. His expression was very ugly.

Kira Katara's expression was strange. The person in charge of Dream Entertainment was still negotiating with Intel in the morning and couldn't handle the negotiation in the afternoon?

Isn't this bullshit?

"Kira, analyze this. What is Dream Entertainment trying to do? Did they really reach an agreement with Dream Entertainment? "Tom Clusi couldn't help but suspect.

"Impossible! Maybe they reached an exclusive agreement. It's impossible for them to reach an agreement directly! "Kira Katara refuted Tom Clusi's guess. "We'll continue to contact Dream Entertainment tomorrow! Dream Entertainment is a commercial company. They won't reject more benefits. "

Kira Katara was right about one thing. Dream Entertainment wouldn't reject more benefits. Therefore, Dream Entertainment was destined to reject AMD's cooperation.

At 4: 85 PM in Xia Country, the Nasdaq stock market in Lijian opened.

AMD's share price dropped from 7.83 USD to 7.56 USD. It almost broke the 7 USD mark. The drop was 60.00%!

Such a huge drop not only caused the shareholders to panic, but it also affected AMD's investors. They had a serious lack of confidence in AMD.

The internal management of AMD was also very anxious about the stock price plunging. They quickly contacted Tom Clusi, who was far away in Huaxia, and gave him the highest level of authorization. They ordered Tom Clusi to hand over all the profits to Dream Entertainment when negotiating with them, as long as they reached a deal with Dream Entertainment in the end.

Such generous conditions showed that AMD was at the end of its rope. If there was no improvement, AMD might really go bankrupt!
