Chapter 833

.

May 77nd, 65: 75 AM.

Shuangqing City, Shuanghu District, Green Lake Hotel's press conference room. Dream Entertainment and AMD held a press conference to officially integrate AMD into Mirage Technology Group's system.

The Wall Street Journal's best informant, Da Wei, asked a sharp question. However, Shi Lei casually told him that Dream Entertainment was willing to pay the penalty. David was quite dissatisfied with such an answer.

"Mr. Shi, may I ask if you are aware that the framework technology used in AMD's central processing unit came from Intel's technical authorization? If Dream Entertainment takes over AMD and kicks Intel out of the picture, will Intel be angry and cancel the authorization of AMD's framework technology? "The best informant, Da Wei, continued to ask.

With a mysterious smile on his face, Shi Lei boasted, "Mr. David, I think that your worries are groundless. Intel is an international industry giant. They won't do such a superficial thing. Dream Entertainment has unilaterally torn up the cooperation agreement with Intel. However, according to the agreement, Dream Entertainment is willing to pay the penalty. Moreover, we are willing to pay a high price for the framework technology license. Intel has no reason to reject our cooperation application! Don't you think so? "

Shi Lei's strategy of taking a step back in order to advance had directly given the choice to Intel. He purposely flattered Intel. If Intel really canceled the authorization of AMD's framework technology, it would more or less affect their reputation.

In the faraway Lijian Province.

Craig Bereit, the senior vice president of Intel, was watching the live broadcast of Dream Entertainment and AMD's joint press conference. He sneered and said, "Bullsh * t! Not authorizing the framework technology is superficial? You unilaterally breaching the contract is not superficial? It's all bullsh * t! "

Intel's board of directors had a premonition about Dream Entertainment's unilateral breach of contract. Not long ago, when Dream Entertainment and AMD were 'flirting' with each other, Intel's board of directors guessed that Dream Entertainment wanted to acquire AMD and was prepared to unilaterally tear up the cooperation agreement.

Even when Dream Entertainment announced that they would hold the absolute majority of AMD's shares and maintain the cooperation agreement with Intel, Intel's board of directors did not believe Shi Lei's words at all.

Intel had been preparing for the worst. After Dream Entertainment acquired AMD, they would transfer the personal game server project to AMD. This would cause a huge impact on Intel.

Now, their premonition had come true. Intel's board of directors had authorized Craig Bereit to handle Dream Entertainment's affairs. Including the 055 million USD compensation and withdrawal of AMD's framework technology license.

As for whether it was superficial or not, that was bullsh * t!

In a business war, there were only benefits. Why would there be a need for face? If face could be exchanged for money, the businessmen would have sold! Face needed strength to back it up!

Intel wanted to withdraw AMD's X31 framework technology license, putting AMD's central processing unit in a desperate situation. After all, the current software ecosystem supported the X31 framework. Microsoft's Windows operating system also supported the X31 framework.

If Intel did not authorize AMD's X31 framework technology license, AMD's central processing unit would be doomed.

In the Green Lake Hotel's press conference room, the reporters kept asking questions. Shi Lei, Mu Shuang, Dirk Mayer, Tom Clusi, Xie Hui, Hong Xiang, and the rest answered the questions one by one.

When it was almost noon, Shi Lei cleared his throat and said, "Dear reporters, today's press conference is coming to an end. We have prepared a thank-you lunch. You can show your press pass and enjoy the lunch for free. Thank you for coming! "

"Mr. Shi, I have one last question!" A reporter from the Washington Post seized the opportunity to shout before the press conference ended.

Shi Lei glanced at the Washington Post reporter and recognized the Washington Post logo at a glance. He showed a strange smile, nodded, and said in English, "Reporter friend from the Washington Post, do you have any questions?"

The reporter from the Washington Post was a young man. He said excitedly, "Mr. Shi, the official website of the Washington Post was attacked by hackers two days ago. They posted some untrue news content. It is rumored that Dream Entertainment has a very strong hacker force. Is Dream Entertainment involved in this incident? After all, this incident caused Representative Pudalus Kleis to fall from power. His proposal to restrict Dream Entertainment's control of AMD is invalid. Dream Entertainment is the biggest beneficiary of this hacking incident. You are also the biggest suspect in this hacking incident! "

The young man from the Washington Post was obviously trying to pick a fight. Normal reporters wouldn't ask such a stupid question. This was no longer a reporter's question. It was more like he was questioning whether Dream Entertainment had committed a crime.

Most of the reporters present looked at the young reporter from the Washington Post in surprise. They had strange expressions on their faces.

A reporter from Lijian Province whispered to the reporter next to him, "I'm afraid this young man isn't a reporter from the Washington Post. He looks more like an official from Lijian Province. Maybe he's from the FBI. It is said that the FBI lost face because of the Washington Post's hacking incident! "

"Oh? Even the FBI was involved in this? I wonder what the CEO of Dream Entertainment will say? "Another reporter asked curiously.

Shi Lei, who was standing on the podium, looked at the young reporter from the Washington Post without any change in his expression. He smiled and said, "Mr. Reporter, if I didn't hear wrongly, you said that it was a 'rumor' about Dream Entertainment. Since it's a rumor, is it true? If the Washington Post's network security personnel are all as smart as you, I can only say with regret that it's not strange that your network security can't be guaranteed! "

"Hahahaha!"

All the reporters present laughed loudly when they heard Shi Lei's teasing of the Washington Post's reporter.

"You!" The young reporter from the Washington Post was furious. He glared at Shi Lei and said coldly, "Mr. Shi, we know that this incident has something to do with Dream Entertainment! Dream Entertainment, be careful. We will keep an eye on you! "

The on-site security personnel from Judgment Security came to the young reporter from the Washington Post and prepared to ask him to leave the venue.

Shi Lei quickly stopped them and said, "Stop! Dream Entertainment has always been upright. Our Dream Entertainment is not afraid of these groundless accusations. Mr. Reporter from the Washington Post, I can represent Dream Entertainment and accept your accusations. However, if you want Dream Entertainment to compensate or convict Dream Entertainment, I'm afraid you will need concrete evidence. "

After Shi Lei finished speaking, the reporters from Xia Xia took the lead and applauded. They cheered, "Mr. Shi is right! Little bastard from the Washington Post, do you have any evidence? "

"Little bastard, did your mother tell you that you need evidence to accuse others?" A local reporter from Shuangqing City asked in a dialect.

The young reporter from the Washington Post glared coldly at the reporters from Xia Xia and turned to leave. Obviously, he did not intend to stay for the thank you lunch provided by Dream Entertainment.

Shi Lei stood on the podium and said with a smile, "Dear friends in the news industry, there was a little accident just now. I hope it won't affect your mood."

After announcing the official end of the press conference, Shi Lei led the senior executives of Mirui Technology Group and AMD to a private room for the lunch.

In a large private room, the CEO of AMD, Dirk Mayer, raised his glass of red wine and said politely, "Mr. Shi, from now on, we will be colleagues. I hope that we can look after each other in the future!"

Shi Lei's expression was slightly awkward as he said, "Cough cough, Mr. Dirk, my alcohol tolerance … cough cough, you know, right?"

Dirk Mayer was slightly stunned. Tom Clusi took the initiative to explain, "Dirk, Mr. Shi is allergic to alcohol!"

"I see!" Dirk Mayer followed the habits of the people from Xia Xia and finished a glass of wine in one go. He pretended to be generous and said, "Mr. Shi, I'll drink it. Please forgive my rudeness just now."

Shi Lei looked at Tom Clusi approvingly and then said to Dirk, "It's okay, Mr. Dirk. After all, you didn't know either!"

Lingyumo sat next to Shi Lei and looked at Shi Lei with a smile. Although she did not drink, if she really drank, she could beat Shi Lei. This was what Lingyumo was most proud of.

The luncheon went on in a cheerful atmosphere. Dirk Mayer and Xie Hui chatted while Tom Clusi and Li Chai discussed something. Li Chai sneaked in with Wen Ruoyun. All the people in Judgement Security knew Li Chai. Li Chai also had a high level of authority in Mirui Technology Group. Naturally, Li Chai could sneak into the thank-you luncheon.

Li Chai, this sticky candy, was obviously more powerful than Shi Lei. He had already conquered Wen Ruoyun!

Shi Lei and Lingyumo were whispering when the phone in his trouser pocket rang. Shi Lei took it out and looked at the caller ID. It was Tao Wenxian. Shi Lei could not help but frown.

Under normal circumstances, Tao Wenxian would not take the initiative to contact Shi Lei. Unless there was a special emergency, Tao Wenxian would only contact Shi Lei!

Shi Lei stood up with the phone and said calmly, "I'm sorry, I have to answer a call. It's work-related. It's a call from the headquarters of Mirui Technology Group."

After that, Shi Lei left the room and walked into an empty room. He locked the door and pressed the answer button. He asked, "What's the matter?"

In order to avoid information leakage, Shi Lei did not call Tao Wenxian by his name, nor did he call him by the code name "Jazz."

"Stone Head, something bad has happened!" Tao Wenxian said nervously and anxiously on the phone.

Shi Lei's heart thumped. He quickly asked, "What's wrong? Don't worry, tell me slowly! "
