"Dong Dong --"

"come in."

In a spacious office full of luxurious details and showcasing the style of Hollywood regent, Andy sits in front of a very large and heavy mahogany desk and looks up at the little assistant who comes in twisting his waist.

"What is it?"

"Mr. avertrey and Mr. bardstone are here."

Andy nodded quietly. "Let them in." He said he kept looking down at the announcement made by Qualcomm after it realized that the secondary market stock market was abnormal.

"Boss x2"

Andy looks up at the two most powerful men coming in, smiles and reaches for a sign. "Sit down."

When they sat opposite him, Andy raised his hand and shook the document. "Did you receive the announcement Qualcomm just released?" he said?

As you can hear, Qualcomm's board of directors and management have continued to implement their strategy to keep the company financially sound and well capitalized while focusing on investing in opportunities that can extend its leadership in the mobile sector to new areas.

Accurate positioning, meet the next stage of profit growth. As its technology and product roadmap expands into new industries, Qualcomm has tremendous opportunities to create significant added value for shareholders.

In conclusion, Qualcomm is not willing to be acquired, and can create a new round of value for shareholders by relying on its own strength.

Ha ha, the time they chose is very smart. On Christmas Eve on the 24th tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, it will be released two hours before the holiday. They are fighting! "

"Boss, Qualcomm's response is within expectations. It's very difficult for us to steadily attract funds for such a long time. There's not much room for operation in the secondary market.

This time, Qualcomm realized that it was also because we and our partners contacted their minority shareholders to acquire shares.

At present, I hold 15.2% of the shares. According to the position information of investment institutions given in the latest 13F document, 63.01% of Qualcomm's shares are held by major institutions, which are the key target of our acquisition of Qualcomm's company.

Boss, I think it's time to go to the front desk and officially announce the decision to acquire Qualcomm. If the board of directors composed of 11 directors refuses our acquisition, we will directly launch a takeover offer to shareholders, which will turn into a hostile acquisition. Although Qualcomm can launch a "poison pill plan" to fight back according to the rules of the US capital market.

However, the major institutions will never agree to launch the poison pill program to hurt their own interests. As long as our shares exceed 20%, we can launch a new board election.

We can divide the shares into six and submit them to the candidates. As long as we can control the board of directors, we can complete the first step plan. "

As Andy's chief think tank and the first person in charge of the plan to acquire Qualcomm, alvette naturally pays close attention to Qualcomm's response all the time. When he received Qualcomm's announcement, he held a think tank meeting. The final result of the discussion is to launch the Black Knight plan - hostile acquisition in advance.

"Bypass Qualcomm's board directly?" Andy frowns and mumbles. To be honest, he is worried about a possible capital war in the future.

But it's not the idea of privatization. As long as he can control six to seven seats on Qualcomm's board of directors, his first acquisition plan will be basically completed.

"At present, how many of the largest holders of Qualcomm stock are likely to accept our offer?"

"Boss, we don't need to focus on the top ten institutions, whether Blackstone, pioneer group, Fidelity International Investment Fund, State Street and Wellington management group. We just need to get their support. What we have to do is to impress those small and medium-sized institutions with the quotation.

We can take the lead to promise that the current senior management of Qualcomm will be like a stay in office. After all, our purpose is not to make Qualcomm into turmoil. You just want Qualcomm's authority and shares, don't you? "

According to bardstone's timely analysis, the more in-depth understanding of Qualcomm, the more optimistic bardstone is about the future of the company.

Since its establishment in 1985, Qualcomm has been mainly engaged in the application services of mobile communication technology in the transportation industry. In 1989, Qualcomm first launched a mobile communication solution based on CDMA technology, and has since become the standard setter of this emerging communication industry.

In the evolution and development process from 2G to 3G technology, Qualcomm has accumulated more than 4000 CDMA patent technologies, always leading the technological development pace of the mobile industry.

With the advent of the era of smart phones, Qualcomm's mobile microprocessors are the first to support Android operating systems. It can be imagined that with the widespread popularity of free Android systems, Qualcomm will definitely become the leader of the mobile chip industry.

Bardstone knew that the acquisition would eventually become a capital war for several months, which would be an unimaginable game for the cash consumption in the hands of the boss. However, at this time, at the most serious node of the financial storm, it is the best way to make a commitment to cash transactions that can hit these institutional investors. Seeing the deep lock brow of the big boss, he said again Avenue."Qualcomm's success is very similar to Intel's. In a high-tech field, through high investment in R & D, far ahead of the technical level, a wide range of patent barriers, almost all competitors can be blocked to survive. No one can threaten Qualcomm's position in the future unless there is a major change in the industry.

With the increasing popularity of IT technology, many traditional industries have undergone profound changes. Whoever can adapt to the times and introduce IT technology into the traditional industries at the earliest will gain the ability to subvert the giants. "

"Paul Jacobs, the current CEO, is the son of Owen Jacobs, the company's founder. It may be a difficult link to break." Andy looked down at Qualcomm's acquisition plan, fingered the desktop, and frowned.

"Boss, this should not be a big problem. Qualcomm's shareholders are the real leaders. After Paul Jacobs took over the post of Qualcomm's CEO from his father Owen in 2005, he has experienced patent wars with Nokia and conflicts with regulatory authorities. Although these disputes were finally resolved, Nokia's counterclaim has attracted many shares Dong denounced his ability. Now, Qualcomm's stock price has dropped to around $28, nearly halved from the highest $56, and shareholders' trust in him has been basically exhausted.

Jacobs owns about 0.13% of Qualcomm's shares, including publicly held, restricted shares and options. Some restricted shares will be attributed based on Qualcomm's performance over the next few years.

Although it's the founder family, they hold too few shares. I don't believe that emotional relationships can counter the prevailing economic considerations, especially the large shareholders, including Blackstone and vanguard, who, ha ha... "

Alvette is ironic. Andy and bud know that these private fund institutions are the real interests first, and Nai is the typical representative of mother.

"I remember that in July, Blackstone, together with NBC global, acquired the weather channel of landmark Communications Co., Ltd..." Although it's a tone of doubt, Andy, who has the skill of never forgetting, naturally remembers it very clearly. "It seems that I should contact with him personally. There is no regulatory problem in our acquisition, which is undoubtedly the biggest advantage. Don't worry about the obstruction of the regulatory authorities."

Mr. bardstone and Mr. alvert agreed with each other. If a foreign company acquires a high-tech company like Qualcomm, it will undoubtedly face a headache of strict review and regulatory procedures. Even if all aspects are agreed, if one of them threatens the national security of the United States, it can directly terminate the transaction, which will really cause heavy losses 。

"After Christmas, I will send these friends tickets to the rockets and the Lakers for the Christmas War. I will hold a Christmas party in Houston. First, I will contact them in advance to explore their attitude." Andy ponders and makes a decision.

Qualcomm, he is bound to gain, which is related to the power of the future mobile Internet era, but also the most important part of making money for a better future. He will never give up the opportunity of annexation when Qualcomm is at its lowest point!
