Fight to the third generation

As soon as Su Yehao went to sit down in the private room, the travel-worn Zhang Rujing rushed over, put the suitcase by the wall after entering the door, and said with a smile: "The call just happened to happen, I just came back from Japan by plane, and there was beef brisket when I landed. Brother Lin, you haven't seen each other for a while, I remember the last time it was at a communication meeting in Hsinchu?"

"Well... It should be three or four years. I am in a different industry from yours. I have a limited technical level and I don't have many opportunities to communicate with each other."

Hearing this, Zhang Rujing said with a smile: "If you say such things, then we will all stand aside. I have been paying attention to the paper you wrote a long time ago, and many people in the industry recognize it. Although the light source technology does not seem to be yours. Research expertise, but also because of this, have a unique perspective, a different way of thinking, may be able to open a new path in the lithography machine industry."

A few years ago, Lin Baojian proposed to make an immersion lithography machine in his paper.

However, Nikon, Canon, ASML and other companies are now making dry lithography machines, which have been stuck in the field of light source technology for a long time, and have been unable to find a new direction.

Fortunately, for now, the performance of the lithography machine is sufficient for the time being, so no one is willing to invest a huge amount of research and development funds and change to a new track...except Su Yehao who is very ambitious.

For a very uncertain possibility.

This time, Su Yehao even dared to give a guarantee of investing one billion US dollars in ten years. If there is a breakthrough and the funds are not enough, he can add more at any time.

Money or not, Su Yehao, who is currently worth over tens of billions of dollars, really doesn't care much.

Taking this money to win a chance to monopolize the cutting-edge lithography machine is undoubtedly quite cost-effective in his opinion. It is tantamount to betting on this part of the bargaining chip, betting that he can earn more in the future, and in turn getting stuck in the necks of Europe, America and Japan .

Su Yehao will provide funds for this research and development, and Canon Japan will provide technical support.

The two parties plan to establish a new joint venture company, and Canon will be able to invest in technology and talents, accounting for 20% of the shares, without paying a dime.

no way.

Although Canon's lithography machine is only the second largest in the market, nearly half of the market share has been taken away by Nikon, but in terms of patents and talents, it is still not comparable to Su Yehao.

If you want to save time and avoid detours, you have no choice but to recruit Canon Company.

If it weren't for the help of Jincheng sages from First Quanye Securities, it is said that they invited their executives to have several meals and carefully analyzed the truth of the three caves with the other party, otherwise, even if Su Yehao was willing to give Canon shares, Canon might not be willing to agree.

As I said before, these Japanese companies regard the patented technology of the bottom of the box as more important than their lives.

The reason why Canon agreed to the joint venture was firstly because the lithography machine business accounted for a relatively small proportion of Canon’s revenue and profit; money, and can also earn patent fees for technology authorization. Fourth, Nikon's technology has surpassed Canon, and the second child is almost a Buddhist.

Mobile phones with camera functions have not yet come out, but related concepts have appeared on the market, and many companies are researching and developing them.

For example, Sharp Corporation has established a research and development department with South Korea's Samsung.

Canon is also quite optimistic about this new business. It involves the field of digital cameras, which is what it is good at. Fearing that there is no suitable partner for cooperation, Su Yehao's Black Diamond Mobile Phone Company came out first and offered to cooperate in development. Share most of the R&D funding.

There are both intangible and practical benefits. Facing Su Yehao's money-making ability, even the top management of Canon Company couldn't stand it.

No way, he was too sincere.

Jincheng Xianren personally made his white gloves, and sent out a total of [-] million yen, completely dispelling the last reason for being rejected...

Central Nine Kee Beef Brisket.

A large pot of beef brisket was quickly brought to the table, and there were some tripe and oxtail in it, which Su Yehao added specially.

Eat and drink.

Su Yehao was able to interject at first, but as Lin Baojian and Zhang Rujing chatted, he gradually lost his comprehension and concentrated on eating.

This time I went to the Maldives to eat seafood first, and then lived in Silicon Valley for more than ten days, and my mouth almost faded away, otherwise I would not have chosen a beef brisket restaurant...

Chapter 621 Super Challenge

Finish a meal.

As soon as I left the beef brisket shop, I saw some people watching something not far away.

Su Yehao didn't want to join in the fun, and was about to send Lin Baojian to a hotel for a temporary resettlement. Unexpectedly, someone ran up, followed by a young brother with a camera in his hand. Both of them were out of breath.

For a moment, Su Yehao pretended to be affectionate, thinking that they were here to interview him.

After watching it carefully, I realized that the shorter middle-aged man was not the supporting role of Master Xing, Chen Boxiang. He was wearing red short-sleeved sleeves and had a name tag on his back.

Blinking his eyes, Su Yehao glanced at the camera, already made some guesses, and asked, "Brother Boxiang, what are you doing?"

When Chen Boxiang heard this, he immediately lost his temper, pointed at him, and said out of breath:

"Wow, is there any mistake, we are filming the "Super Challenge" variety show you conceived, let me hang outside the building to wipe the glass in the morning, and now I am out of breath, you don't know what we are doing? How can I offend Prince Edward, can I change my career, this is more tiring than filming, I am almost 50 years old, I almost had a cerebral hemorrhage."

Rubbing his nose, Su Yehao said awkwardly:

"I have a lot of things to do recently. I have been dealing with business in the United States. I didn't expect to start shooting so soon. Brother Boxiang, you don't look like you are in your 40s. People believe you when you say [-]. Come on, I am optimistic about you."

Chen Boxiang shook hands with him with a smile, and began to introduce Su Yehao to the camera, reassuring that it was really just a coincidence.

This introduction, of course, is for the audience to hear.

At this moment, Xu Jiangjing, the Asian version of the God of Thunder, also came running profusely in sweat. He didn't know what had happened, and his face was covered with white paint.

Seeing this, Chen Boxiang was afraid of being eliminated by the strong Xu Jiangjing, so he hurried away.

It was Xu Jiangjing's turn to stop and say hello to Su Yehao. He also complained, telling him that he ran to chop pork this morning, and his hands still smelled fishy, ​​so he stopped shaking hands.

The "Super Challenge" program was conceived by Su Yehao, and it almost copied the future ideas. Right now, they are tearing up their famous brands.

That's right.

ATV has been purchased by Su Yehao.

Some time ago, he asked Zhuang Wei's assistant to tell the two major shareholders of ATV that they would lower the offer by [-] million Hong Kong dollars if they refused to agree within three days. Before the deadline, the two major shareholders chose to cash out and leave.

One after another, several other shareholders who were not optimistic about the company's prospects also decided to sell ATV's shares to him at a premium, spending a total of 15 billion Hong Kong dollars. Now Su Yehao holds 84% ​​of ATV's shares and has an additional TV station under his name.

The plan to shoot a variety show had been discussed with Xiao Nizi a long time ago, and Su Yehao bumped into it for the first time today.

Wanting to experience it with my own eyes, Linda Yun asked Lin Baojian to check in at Hi~o (＊￣▽￣＊) Garden Hotel, while he continued to stay in the filming crew.

The filming team has a total of more than ten people and has been busy for most of the day, preparing to shoot two episodes in a row.

Since it was the first time to shoot, I tried to make the content interesting, so I have been planning to shoot until tonight. Later, I will let them go to Temple Street to set up a stall to see who earns the most and decide the final winner.

Su Yehao chatted with the chief director in his 30s, and learned that Chen Boxiang was paid [-] Hong Kong dollars for one episode, and Xu Jiangjing and Qian Jiale [-] Hong Kong dollars.

There are 52 weeks in a year, if calculated according to one episode per week, the annual income is only 200 million Hong Kong dollars.

Since they are willing to accept it, it means that they agree with this treatment.

Some supporting actors who often appear in TV dramas and movies have a fixed salary of more than 1 yuan when they sign a contract with the TV station.

I have to say that due to the small market and fierce competition, Hong Kong City's salary is really low.

For example, Zhang Weijian, who Su Yehao was looking for earlier, was filming the 1996 version of Journey to the West, and the total film salary for the whole TV series was only 80 Hong Kong dollars.

Among the resident guests of the "Super Challenge" variety show, in addition to the three of them, there is also a newly signed Xiao Xianrou from Tianyu Entertainment, who belongs to the newly formed boy group "Tianwang", plus a member of the girl group, The group name is "Empress".

From this point of view.

After all, Nangong Tian didn't hold back Su Yehao, she just deleted half of the "nine-legged empress" to appear more domineering.

Regardless of whether it is a boy group or a girl group, the scope of selection is expanded to the mainland, Taiwan and Taiwan. It has to be said that the members must be good-looking, talented and talented.

With Su Yehao as the background, there is no need to worry about resources.

On NO.19 of last month, TVB held a celebration event at the Thousand Stars Awards Ceremony. The Heavenly Kings and Empresses showed their faces on stage, and some of them had good acting skills. They began to try to develop in the film and television industry.

As for the two sent to participate in the variety show, they are both extroverted and have a strong sense of humor.

Staying on the shooting scene to watch for a while, Su Yehao called Nangong Tian and learned that she was at the headquarters of Tianyu Entertainment, so he asked her out to go shopping...

We separated in the Maldives, and we haven't seen each other for more than ten days in a blink of an eye.

After meeting Su Yehao, Xiao Nizi told in a dissatisfied tone: "You are so bad, you didn't take me with you when you invited someone to eat. I thought I could have a big meal. I have been hungry since noon."

Su Yehao pointed to Qian Jiale who was being pinned to the ground, and said with a smile: "They are going to set up a stall in Temple Street, Yau Ma Tei later. You just take care of the business. I didn't expect Tianyu Entertainment to give you Jiang Yu. You are so eloquent, I really underestimated you."

Hear this.

Xiao Nizi proudly replied:

"Of course, you are so good at doing business. I have studied with you for a long time, and I must have learned some experience. The main reason is that you are amazing, and you are not lenient in spending money and investing. Since you bought the TV station, we have contacted a lot of actors recently. They all want to jump ship to work with us.”

"Oh? Are there any celebrities I know?"

Touching his chin, Su Yehao continued: "Actually, I have thought about completely disbanding the stars signed by ATV, but it is not easy for them to make a living, and the artists signed with the TV station in Hong Kong City spend less money, and the disadvantages are It is to restrict the freedom of shooting, if they all find the protagonist from outside, they will definitely not be happy."

"The famous people from ATV have all quit their jobs now, right? If we terminate the contract with them and produce through Tianyu Entertainment, it should be fine. The TV station only needs to be responsible for the broadcasting."

After finishing speaking, Xiao Nizi lowered her voice and added:

"Ms. Meng Jiahui, who is very beautiful, you know. She was nominated for the best new actor at the Academy Awards last year. Her agent has contacted me, but she is not the one who signs with us. Let us have roles to consider She, I think it is suitable to play the heroine in the "Myth" movie."

For this, Su Yehao was a bit impressed, and nodded after thinking about it:

"When the time comes, let her try out the mirror. Anyway, I don't plan to only develop on the three-acre land in Hong Kong City. Compared with saving costs, how to open source is more important. The selection of candidates does not have to be limited to whether to sign a contract with us. I will take you to dinner first. Well, where is Jiang Yu?"

"She accompanies her mother to cut her hair. It takes a long time to blow-dry her hair. I want to cut it short too. What do you think?"

"It's fine, the key is that people are beautiful, even with an afro."

"..."

Chapter 622 Fishing...

The next day.

The escort vehicle drove into the yard and brought over several pieces of art that Mr. Tang had just bought for Su Yehao at the Christie's auction in London.

These include a fine watercolor by Van Gogh, which sold for just over £200 million.

Compared with the artist's oil paintings, the price is undoubtedly much cheaper. There are only more than 100 known Van Gogh watercolor works, and most of them are still in museums and art galleries, which are also valuable for collection.

After the handover, it's time to pack things up.

When Su Yehao saw Jiang Yu approaching, he immediately praised: "Huh? You have a new hairstyle. You look so pretty."

Jiang Yu happily replied:

"Yeah, the stylist who often cut my hair left, and I changed to a hairstylist from the Philippines. I didn't expect the craftsmanship to be so good!"

In fact, if Xiao Nizi hadn't tipped off the news yesterday, Su Yehao would have seen a ghost. The girl's hair was more than ten centimeters short, and she wouldn't be able to see it unless she looked carefully.

At this moment, Jiang Yu was very happy, feeling that he was taken seriously, and asked with a smile:

"Buying so many things again? When you were not at home, you sent two containers with six oversized sculptures inside. Nangong and I almost died of anxiety, and we found a few porters to move them into the small castle smoothly. "

"They are the twelve zodiac sculptures I ordered from Jeff Koons in the United States. Recently, the works of this modern artist have appreciated rapidly, and the stainless steel balloon dog is also made by him."

Su Yehao personally carried the suitcase containing Van Gogh's watercolors, and asked Jiang Yu to help hold the square box containing the Xuande furnace.

When I met Jeff Koons in New York earlier, I wanted to speculate on speculation, but I didn’t expect this guy to be quite lucky. At the same time, he was also targeted by other art dealers and helped him to hype.

The last piece of work "Balloon Dog" on the market has just been auctioned in New York, and was acquired by a certain Houston oil tycoon for more than 400 million US dollars.

There is also a heart-shaped sculpture made of stainless steel, which also sells for nearly $200 million.

This means that the value of Jeff Koons's works collected by Su Yehao has risen. No matter whether it is really worth that price or not, as long as there are people who are taken advantage of and are willing to take over, there is indeed a market.

He is the only person in the world who can sell works made of stainless steel at sky-high prices, and he is barely considered a talent.

It took some time to put the newly purchased collections in the display cabinet and insulate them with bulletproof glass.

Su Yehao put his arms around Jiang Yu's shoulders and said with emotion: "Great, I will collect a batch if I have the opportunity. I don't know how many things can be stored here when I get old. For these antiques and works of art, I may It’s just a passer-by, such as this Xuande stove, maybe 1000 years after my death, it will still be the same as it is now, just like the bronze ware next to it.”

Jiang Yu turned to look at him, and said with a smile: "If you say that, the stones on the roadside may have a history of hundreds of millions of years, and you can't compete with time. I feel that our generation should not be able to live forever. Becoming a robot is a luxury."

"...be more confident and remove the word should."

Su Yehao walked a few steps, and went to visit the imitation of "Along the River During the Qingming Festival". This painting was made by a court painter. It is expected that ordinary people will not have access to the original "Along the River During the Qingming Festival", let alone have time to copy it slowly .

As a layman in the field of appraisal, even if the original and imitation were placed in front of him and Jiang Yu, if they didn't distinguish the seals, it would be difficult to distinguish the authenticity from the fake.

However, this thing is long enough and grand enough, and it is very eye-catching to put here. It costs more than 40 Hong Kong dollars just to customize the showcase for it.

The "A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains" created by Lan Ying next to it is more valuable, and a dynamic sensor alarm device is installed in the corner.

Nangong Tian was busy organizing the wrap-up banquet of "Boys Over Flowers", which was nothing more than a campus youth idol film, with a total of 32 episodes, and the shooting speed was relatively fast.

It was a rare opportunity to be alone with Jiang Yu, and Su Yehao accompanied her in the glass room where the red pandas were kept, chatting a lot.

now.

Jiang Yu asked him, "A few days ago, I heard from my dad that the hotels in the casino are almost fully booked. He seems to be planning to buy one or two more hotels. I want to ask your opinion."

"I think there is no problem. The gaming industry in Las Vegas is very attractive, and the north side has no intention of canceling it. The next 20 years will be the peak season. Even if Mr. Jiang doesn't mention it, I have plans in this regard."

Su Yehao wanted to hug the little panda, but the little guy clung to the railing tightly and didn't let go.

The one in Jiang Yu's arms was so obedient that she didn't move at all, allowing her to trample on it. It seemed that these little guys would recognize their lives.
