Shuanghu District, Green Lake Hotel.
The two senior vice presidents of Intel and AMD were staying in the same four-star hotel. Shuanghu District was a teaching area, so there were no five-star hotels. This was the only four-star hotel in the city.
At 1: 85 p.m., something strange happened at the Green Lake Hotel. Intel and AMD announced a press conference at the same time!
Both companies were world-class giants in the chip industry. Although AMD's assets and status were far inferior to Intel's, it was still the only company that could compete with Intel in the consumer market. They definitely couldn't miss out on their press conference. Intel's press conference could not be missed either!
Therefore, the news media in Shuanghu City could only make a painful choice. Choose one of the two press conferences to interview.
As for the other press conference?
Of course, they could not give up!
It was a must to arrange for other colleagues to interview and report. After the press conference, it would be interesting to compare the press conferences of Intel and AMD together!
At Intel's press conference, Craig Berett stood on the rostrum and said with a smile, "Welcome to all our friends from the press. I am Craig Berett, the senior vice president of Intel. I believe that all of you who are resourceful already know the purpose of my visit to Shuanghu City in Xia Xia. "
The reporters present all laughed kindly. Craig used the Chinese Pinyin to say the word "Great Divine Ability", which was quite funny.
"Intel and Dream Entertainment have made a good start in the personal game server industry. Our products have created a global sales miracle. This is not only an acknowledgment of Intel's products, but also an acknowledgment of the Brave World. "
Craig continued to praise the Brave World, "I'm a fan of the Brave World! The World of Bravehearts was simply too amazing. Only players who had personally experienced the game would know how amazing it was. It can no longer be described with words! "
A reporter from Shuangqing Evening News, a local media outlet in Shuangqing City, said somewhat unconventionally, "Mr. Craig, please forgive me for interrupting you at an inappropriate time. I would like to ask, has your Intel Company reached a final cooperation agreement with Dream Entertainment?"
Craig didn't blame the reporter. Instead, he said in a pleasant tone, "Intel has already reached a series of cooperation intentions with Dream Entertainment, including the exclusive right to negotiate!"
"Exclusive negotiation!" The reporter from Shuangqing Evening News exclaimed, "Mr. Craig, do you mean that Dream Entertainment won't negotiate with other companies unless the negotiations between Intel and Dream Entertainment break down?"
"That's right!" Craig's face was full of pride as he spoke loudly.
The reporter from Shuangqing Evening News played along and asked, "Does that include AMD? According to our sources, AMD is also in Dream Entertainment today. May I ask if you guys are in a three-way negotiation? Are you dissatisfied with Dream Entertainment holding a three-party meeting? "
Although the question raised by the reporter from Shuangqing Evening News was a little sharp, Lin Fan did not care about it at all. However, not only was Craig not angry, he was secretly happy in his heart. This was truly a sleepy encounter with a pillow!
"We, Intel, have the exclusive right to negotiate with Dream Entertainment, including the exclusion of AMD!" Craig paused for a moment before continuing, "Today's negotiation with Dream Entertainment isn't a three-way negotiation. AMD is only an observer. They don't have the right to speak and can only watch the negotiation between us and Dream Entertainment with grievances. Yes, they can only watch silently! "
The reporters at the scene secretly recorded this point. AMD did not have the right to negotiate. It seemed that Intel and Dream Entertainment's negotiation was more likely to be successful.
After all, something like exclusive negotiation rights, once it was confirmed, it was basically the rhythm of reaching a final agreement.
On the other side, the atmosphere at AMD's press conference was also very lively.
Tom Clusi stood on the rostrum and spoke passionately, "Hello everyone, I'm Tom Clusi, AMD's Senior Vice President. Today, AMD has successfully participated in the negotiation between Dream Entertainment and Intel. We've already understood the entire negotiation process between Intel and Dream Entertainment, and we also know Intel's bottom line. "
At this point, Tom laughed and teased Intel. "I have to say, Intel is a little too stingy. They earned at least one billion USD from their last collaboration with Dream Entertainment. However, this time, they are still unwilling to share too much of their profits with Dream Entertainment. We, AMD, are a company that focuses on win-win situations. Our final sincerity is greater than Intel's. I believe that AMD will obtain the final victory in this competition! "
Shuangqing TV Station's Hu Ke chose to report at AMD's press conference. She looked at Tom Clusi with a smile and said, "Hello, Mr. Tom!"
"Hello, beautiful lady. How may I help you?" Tom spoke politely like a gentleman.
"Mr. Tom, I wonder if you can tell us the details of the collaboration between Intel and Dream Entertainment? Also, how will AMD surpass Intel and reach an agreement with Dream Entertainment? "Hu Ke blinked her beautiful eyes and tried to get more details from Tom.
However, Tom Clusi was not an idiot who only thought with his lower body. Some things could be revealed to the media, and some things could not be revealed to the media.
If he revealed the details of the collaboration between Intel and Dream Entertainment, he was afraid that Intel and Dream Entertainment would boycott him.
Commercial negotiations were called commercial negotiations because they were classified as commercial secrets. The details could not be revealed to the public easily. Some commercial details could affect the company's share price and development. How could they be exposed?
"I'm sorry, beautiful lady. I'm afraid I can't answer this question. I'm really sorry to disappoint you. I can't do anything about it, "Tom said jokingly.
The reporters at the scene took pictures of Tom's funny look. It seemed that they were preparing to write some gossip.
The two big shots in the chip manufacturing industry held two press conferences. The news first spread from China's media. Some foreign reporters stationed in Shuangqing City also sent back news reports, synchronizing the news with the news to their own countries.
The media in Lijian reported the press conferences of the two companies in detail. Intel and AMD were both in Lijian Province. The actions of the two companies in Lijian Province affected the media in Lijian Province. Some of the big news media in Lijian had already sent corresponding work teams to be temporarily stationed in Shuangqing City to report the entire negotiation process between the two companies and Dream Entertainment.
…
On the 83th floor of the Jade Building.
At 4: 85 in the evening, the Nasdaq stock market opened. Intel's share price rose by 35 cents due to the "exclusive negotiation rights".
On the other hand, AMD's stock price didn't fluctuate much. It was still at $7.58 for the time being. It didn't fall because of the exclusive negotiation between Intel and Dream Entertainment, nor did it rise because of Tom Clusi's bold words.
The lowest price of AMD's share price was $7.55. If they wanted to continue falling, they would have to have some shocking negative news. It was not a rubbish stock, nor was it a concept stock. It was a high-tech company's share and had real value.
In Mu Shuang's office, a three-screen display platform was set up temporarily. It was convenient for Mu Shuang to use the accounts registered by the three offshore companies to buy AMD's shares on the Nasdaq stock market.
Although Shi Lei had prepared twelve offshore companies, it was more than enough to use three offshore companies at once. As long as the shares were distributed among the twelve offshore companies, there was a chance to avoid alerting AMD.
"Mu Shuang, what should we do now?" Shi Lei stood behind Mu Shuang and asked softly.
Mu Shuang said calmly, "We will buy all of AMD's shares at this low price. Buy as much as you can!"
"Buy as much as you can? Won't this push up the price of AMD's shares? "Shi Lei was an idiot when it came to stocks, but he still knew the relationship between supply and demand.
As long as a large number of purchase orders were placed, AMD's share price would definitely be pushed up!
"Yes, we must push up AMD's share price!" Mu Shuang smiled. "If we want to suppress those speculators and get AMD's shares out of their hands, we must push up the price of AMD's shares. Only then will they release the shares."
"Uh! Is 8 billion USD enough? "Shi Lei was a little worried.
Mu Shuang rolled her eyes at Shi Lei. "Big idiot, Shi Lei. You calculated wrongly. AMD's total share price is about 6.2 billion USD. In addition to their debt of more than 6 billion USD, we can even buy all of AMD's shares! "
Shi Lei smiled embarrassedly. "Did I really calculate wrongly?"
"You must be, you idiot! You don't even understand stocks, how could you calculate correctly! "Mu Shuang was like a melting iceberg, smiling like a blooming flower.
"Ahem, Mu Shuang, do as you see fit! I don't understand stocks anyway, ahem! " Shi Lei said awkwardly. He was only a world-class hacker, not a world-class stock trader!
"Shi Lei, the World of Heroes will be completely open for beta testing at midnight tonight, right?" Mu Shuang asked before buying AMD's shares.
Shi Lei suddenly remembered that today was the 9th of May. At midnight on the 0th of May, the World of Heroes would welcome an unlimited global open beta test.
"Ah! That's right! At midnight today, the World of Heroes will have an unlimited global open beta test. Oh no, I forgot about this! "Shi Lei said with some shame.
"Hmph! It's okay that you forgot. Xie Hui remembers! Don't worry, Xie Hui has already arranged for Dream Entertainment to work overtime. There shouldn't be any mistakes! "Mu Shuang snorted.
"Oh, thank God! Old Xie came to the rescue at the most crucial moment again! "Shi Lei drew a cross in front of his chest. Actually, he was not a believer of God. He could only say that he had a certain amount of faith in God, but he also hoped that God would reward him and bless him. This was definitely the sign of a pseudo-believer or a pseudo-believer!
The World of Heroes was about to have an unlimited global open beta test. Shi Lei was secretly guessing how many players would enter the World of Heroes at the first moment and what miracles the World of Heroes would create …
