    Wang Yaocheng and his party lived an idyllic life in the Nordic Netherlands, but a series of heavy financial news came from the outside world.

    Since the Internet high-tech bubble burst in early 2000, the U.S. economy has been hit particularly hard, and the national economy has slipped from weakness to recession since the second half of the year.

    The beginning of 2001

    The U.S. economy is in recession, and all walks of life are bleak. The economic rise period that lasted for more than ten years has ended, and the national economy has experienced a negative growth of 1.3%.

    Under such a general environment, business operations are particularly difficult.

    Some large companies that were already on the verge of difficulty collapsed as if they were hit by the last straw.

    April 6, 2001

    The Pacific Gas and Electric Company of the United States declared bankruptcy and filed for bankruptcy protection, involving assets of 36.15 billion U.S. dollars. The news shocked the American society.

    at the same time

    One of the top ten corporate giants in the United States, the energy giant Enron has been bombarded continuously. From the company's CEO to the chief financial officer and other high-level executives, scandals of fake accounts have broken out one after another.

    Enron was busy putting out fires everywhere, and launched a strong crisis public relations, but unfortunately the results were not great.

    The securities market was the first to respond. Enron's stock plummeted like taking laxatives under the continuous impact of scandals, and its market value shrank sharply. This huge energy industry giant is in a precarious state.

    April 27, 2001

    Polaroid, a well-known large conglomerate in the United States, officially announced that it has filed for bankruptcy protection, dealing a heavy blow to the gloomy US and world economies.

    ? From New York to the Tokyo Stock Exchange, from the London Stock Exchange to Frankfurt, the financial markets have been falling endlessly.

    Who is the Polaroid company?

    What made Polaroid an instant hit was the Polaroid camera. This kind of Polaroid camera, which can produce images immediately after shooting, became popular in European and American societies as soon as it was launched. It is so cool!

    Since the 1960s, in a short period of time, Polaroid cameras have occupied the mainstream market, and almost every European and American family with conditions has one.

    From the 1960s to the 1980s, the Polaroid company had a great reputation.

    As a follower, the color imaging giant Kodak has also entered the Polaroid market to compete for the cake, and it is almost a younger brother in the imaging market.

    It's a pity that the good times didn't last long. After the introduction of advanced digital camera products, Polaroid, which was ossified and unwilling to make progress, gradually entered a desperate situation.

    In the St. Regis Hotel

    Wang Yaocheng held the "Amsterdam Chronicle" in his hand and browsed the news leisurely. As the most important news in the world financial news category, the bankruptcy protection of Polaroid Corporation was placed in the eye-catching headlines.

    These are not what Wang Yaocheng cares about, his focus is different from others.

    In the eyes of all financial commentators, the imaging patents held by Polaroid are outdated, far behind Kodak, which is now gaining momentum, and its Japanese and German counterparts.

    In today's difficult economic recession, real estate and plant equipment can't be sold for much money, and they are almost equivalent to a pile of junk.

    Wang Yaocheng also doesn't like the pile of junk, what he values ??is Polaroid, a trendy brand that is well-known in Europe and America.

    In China, few people may know the brand of Polaroid.

    Most of those who play with color Polaroid cameras are photography stall owners in some famous scenic spots. Ordinary people have little contact with Polaroid Polaroid cameras, and they don¡¯t know much about them.

    When the mainland's economy was booming, Polaroid had already declined.

    The biggest problem with Polaroid is that it doesn¡¯t want to make progress. It used to have the world¡¯s most advanced imaging technology, and it held hands full of bombs.

    Without embracing the booming high-tech digital imaging, we missed the market dividends and opportunities again and again, and eventually fell behind the times and were eliminated.

    But European and American consumers are different.

    The Polaroid brand camera accompanied them from childhood to teenager, from youth to successful middle age, almost the whole life growth memory, especially precious.

    As long as the brand "Polaroid" is mentioned, many elderly people often smile warmly recalling it. In those good old days, "Polaroid" cameras were the most loyal companions.

    According to the understanding of the Internet high-tech era, "Polaroid", a world-renowned brand, almost has its own fan traffic, its own protagonist halo, its own topicality, and has all the elements for a resurgence.

    If the Wang consortium took it down and turned the old hen into a phoenix in minutes, it would definitely not run away.

    theIt has always been stronger than the Dutch ASML company and occupies a dominant position in the market.

    Belonging to the mainstream manufacturers in the market, it is also the favorite provider of lithography equipment for mainstream Japanese chip factories.

    At this time, Atlantic Jinko Group chose the Netherlands asml company as a partner, which is really a blessing. No wonder they accepted it happily, without any trouble.

    Everyone is willing to hug the thigh, and the Dutch ASML company has found an organization.

    This behind-the-scenes transaction was uneventful.

    Even the local media in the Netherlands did not attract attention. They just sent a newsletter about the size of a tofu block, and there was nothing else.

    Everyone's eyes are still drawn by the big news of Cathay Pacific Airways' acquisition of KLM Royal Airlines, and the attention of the two is incomparable.

    After all, whether it is work, life, tourism, or business travel, air travel is a matter of vital interest to every Dutch citizen, and it is impossible not to pay attention to it.

    As for the asml company, it is too niche, who knows which green onion it is?  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
