1610. Chapter 1610 Chapter New goals for Brother Ki

“Feng, there is a British semiconductor Corporation, my team said it is very good, I plan to buy it.”

Semiconductor Corporation? British?

“Oh? What is the Corporation, what products are mainly produced, and how much is it?” Feng Yu asked casually.

Obviously, Brother Ki is hesitant and would like to ask his opinion. Feng Yu’s opinion is generally the very interesting Corporation that he has heard in previous lives. He suggested that Brother Ki should acquire it. If he has never heard of it before, he naturally does not recommend acquisition unless the price is very low.

“It is a Corporation that designs electronic semiconductor microprocessors. Their Corporation name is called Advanced Reduced Instruction Set Processor, or ARM.”

At the beginning, Feng Yu still had a look of indifference, but when he heard the abbreviation of ARM, he slammed straight.

What is this Corporation? Is this Corporation British?

To put it simply, the core of past tablets and smartphones, 95%, ARM architecture, embedded control, multimedia numbers, etc., they also have a dominant position.

They have designed a large number of cost-effective, low-power processors, the most patented technology of their kind, and even designed a lot of software for this.

This is a Corporation with a very high technology and potential. Feng Yu has never been remembered.

However, there is no real tablet computer today. The sales volume of smart phones is far less than that of functional computers. As for embedded control and multimedia digital, there are competitions for other semiconductor organizations. But even so, the number of their mobile phone cores is huge.

But the most interesting thing about this Corporation is that they don’t produce processors at all. They only do technical licensing to get a patent fee.

“The stake in this Corporation is complex, and many of the world’s top semiconductor companies have shares, but their major shareholder is the Acorn Computer Corporation, which has the same status in the UK as Apple’s Apple Corporation.”

“Apple Corporation, VLSI Corporation, Industrial Technology Corporation, Texas Instruments, Qualcomm Corporation, etc., all have shares in it, and no one is the controlling party.”

“This Corporation is listed on the Corporation, listed separately in London and Nasdaq. It has a market capitalization of around £2.6 billion and an annual profit of less than £200 million. My team contacted the Acorn Computer and they agreed to sell it to us. , but asked for a premium of 30%.”

“Corporation requirements such as Texas Instruments are even more excessive. They demanded us a premium of 30%. Even Apple Corporation is also planning to acquire, but the price given by Apple Corporation is almost parity, so it was directly rejected.”

“Feng, do you say that the premium 30% is worthwhile? The profit is too low. It is only two hundred million pounds a year. But my team told me that I can sell the processor core myself, like Intel and Chaowei. I can definitely make money.”

When Kirilenko saw that Feng Yu acquired the semiconductor Corporation and so on, it was not a low premium, and eventually it brought a huge profit to Feng Yu.

But when Feng Yu acquired the Corporation, most of them were unlisted Corporation. The market value of this listed company is obviously high.

Feng himself said that after two years, many listed companies’ stock prices will dive again. Next year is the peak market value of many Corporations. At this time, will there be some losses?

“Brother Ki, my suggestion is to become the major shareholder of this Corporation, but don’t evict all the other organizations. Keep cooperation and facilitate the technology license. I can let the company such as Chaowei also acquire a share, which is enough to guarantee you. You have complete control over the Corporation.”

This is ARM, not only the current mobile phone processor is beginning to break out, but also the organic top box, the future of smart TV, tablet and other products, ARM is the absolute Boss.

By patenting a patent, it is already guaranteed that they have a lot of profits. Just like Ericsson, it was also the top of the mobile phone manufacturers, but now it is slowly, is it not gradually withdrawing from production?

In the future, Ericsson specializes in communication technology research and development, and then relying on patent licensing, it can also have a lot of profit, but also more secure, and the risk is extremely low.

“Feng, why not directly become a controlling shareholder?” Kirilenko is somewhat dissatisfied. Even if it is not wholly-owned, it should be acquired as a controlling shareholder.

With more than two-thirds of the shares, and more than 50% of the shares, the power is completely different.

“Brother Ki, you have to know that ARM’s business model is completely different from Intel, Chaowei, etc. He does not produce processors himself, but only does core design, relying on patent licenses to make money.”

“How can I license more organizations? That can’t be boycotted by other organizations, so ARM needs more allies.”

“So your patents can be licensed to more companies and adopted by more companies. The more companies buy ARM patent licenses, the higher the profit.”

“And the operating costs of this Corporation will be very low. I guess the company is now less than 2,000 employees? Think about it, how many employees does Intel have?”

“There are a small number of people, and there is also a big advantage, that is, the ability to resist risks is strong. Whether it is the rise in material prices or other risk factors, as long as people use electronic products such as mobile phones, your patents will not profit.”

“And this kind of profit is still showing an upward trend. The more patents you have, the more profits you can get, and the longer the flow, not a hammer.”

“My shareholding is to help you have the same right to speak with absolute control interest. If you are not satisfied, then these shares can be transferred to you in two years.”

Kirilenko immediately said: “Feng, what do you mean? Many of the good projects you found have invested with me. You want to invest in this Corporation together. How can I object? Since you say this is more reasonable, then I am sure. I believe you.”

“In this way, I first negotiated with the Acorn computer, and then we acquired a portion of the shares of other Corporation. Finally, we can directly invest in the company such as Chaowei, which expands our camp.”

“Feng, if Japan and other Corporations are coming to buy our patented technology, sell it?”

“Sell, why not sell it!” Feng Yu said immediately. “We are authorized, but not a one-time sell. Anyway, they will follow our architectural standards to produce products such as processors. They don’t make money, let’s Can make money.”

“And in this way, they will slowly rely on our product structure, thus losing the ability of independent research and development, so that their lifeblood is in our hands.”

“Brother Ki, the market value of this Corporation may be several times in a few years, buy it now, absolutely no loss!”
