    After a smile, Zhou Liwen and Cai Mingjie felt much more relaxed. To put it bluntly, the previous grievances and grievances were just the good positions of both of them. Moreover, from a business point of view, each of them had their own tricks, which is beyond reproach.  of.  In fact, from a basic point of view, whether it is Zhou Liwen or Cai Mingjie, there is no life-or-death cause.  What¡¯s more, now that Zhou Liwen and even Lee Jae-chun can cooperate again, what about Cai Mingjie?  Moreover, judging from the current main business of both parties, including the company's development direction, there is no longer much conflict.  Due to the development of smart phones, Taiwan Unicom has gradually shifted from customizing copycat phones to chip system suppliers.  For example, Tsai Mingjie has signed an agreement with Apple to become one of the chip system suppliers for Apple mobile phones.  And began to reduce the production of copycat mobile phones. In other words, Tsai Mingjie's Taiwan Unicom almost withdrew from the ranks of smartphone brand manufacturers in this way and turned into an accessories and system supplier.  From this point of view, there is no direct competition between Taiwan Unitech and Or before. On the contrary, Taiwan Unitech's strength is still very good in terms of chip system supply.  You must know that the original chip system concept for smartphones was proposed by Tsai Mingjie. Although the previous MediaTek no longer exists, the essence and technology of MediaTek are still inherited by Taiwan Unicom.  "Dr. Cai came to the United States this time?" Zhou Liwen raised his hand and added some water to the teacups of both parties.  "The main reason is the chip system supply contract for Apple that Chairman Jay just mentioned. Thanks to Chairman Jay, Apple has already handed over orders from the second half of this year to next year to our company." Cai Mingjie replied with a smile.  "Haha, I know something about this, but you said it was thanks to me, which is too much. I didn't help much in it," Zhou Liwen said cheerfully.  "But you didn't tear me down. I'm very satisfied with this." Cai Mingjie said with a deliberate wink, and then the two of them laughed at the same time.  After the conversation started, the two sides got much closer.  Cai Mingjie is also more calm than before. He even lamented what would have happened if the two sides did not confront each other, but joined forces to fight for each other.  Regarding this point, Zhou Liwen naturally echoed a few words, but the past is the past. To put it another way, if it were not for the pressure Cai Mingjie put on Zhou Liwen back then, maybe Zhou Liwen would not have achieved what he does today.  "By the way, I have something important to do when I come to visit Director Jay this time." Cai Mingjie talked for a while and finally mentioned the purpose of today's visit. Zhou Liwen smiled without surprise and waited for him to continue.  "You know, because of Samsung's problems, I was a little sorry to Director Jay. I hope that Director Jay will not take it to heart." Zhou Liwen waved his hands and said: "I can understand this. If I were in Director Cai's position, I would also be unable to refuse Samsung Group's offer.  The request, and I also made some mistakes for Director Cai. These things have passed, so there is no need to mention them again. "" Mr. Zhou, I admire you a lot." Cai Mingjie nodded with a smile, and then said: "Actually.  I came here today because of the Samsung Group, mainly because I was entrusted by others. " "Is it Li Zaicun?" Zhou Liwen asked without surprise.  "Haha, Chairman Jay is worthy of being Chairman Zhou. You can hit the mark with just one guess." Cai Mingjie sat upright and said, "Samsung's situation is more complicated now. You also know Mr. Li's situation, and Mr. Li can't come forward on his own.  There was a fierce fight between their uncles and brothers. It is said that Mr. Lee Jae-hyun even sent people to keep an eye on Mr. Lee, so his every move was monitored. Unfortunately, Mr. Lee knew what was going on between me and Director Jay.  , I originally thought it was inappropriate for a villain like me to come forward, but I couldn¡¯t find a more suitable candidate for a while. After much deliberation, I decided to take this opportunity to meet Director Jay directly. On the one hand, I was entrusted by Mr. Li to  You build a bridge, and on the other hand, you also apologize for what happened back then. "In fact, when he heard Cai Mingjie visiting him, Zhou Liwen had a little guess.  Li Zaicheng has a good relationship with Cai Mingjie, and it can even be said that Li Zaicheng is grateful to Cai Mingjie.  You know, when MediaTek was forced to close down by Zhou Liwen, Cai Mingjie revived the company and started anew to create Taiwan MediaTek.  On the surface, Taiwan Liantech is the successor of MediaTek, but in fact, the new Taiwan Liantech has been greatly damaged in terms of its foundation and overall strength.  At that time, Tsai Mingjie could only rely on counterfeit mobile phones to restore his vitality and give Taiwan United Technologies room for development.  But don't forget, MediaTek's failure means failure in copycat mobile phones. Every time you learn a lesson, you will learn something. Tsai Mingjie no longer dares to go back, and voluntarily gave up the largest market in the world, that is, the Chinese mainland market, avoiding Zhou Liwen's sharp edge.  Turn to these places in Southeast Asia.  It is this kind of development that allowed Taiwan United Technology to begin to recover and gradually come back to life.  However, judging from the rapid development and competition of smartphones later, if United Technologies relies solely on this aspect, it will not be able to become the large group that Tsai Mingjie is determined to build.  At that time, there were not many choices for Cai Mingjie. Apart from HTCf handing over part of its foundry business to Cai Mingjie, he could hardly find a new way out.  ? ?In this case, HTC started out as a foundry, and the scale of its own foundry is much larger than that of Taiwan United Technologies.  Working with HT, Cai Mingjie is just a helper, and it is not of great benefit to the development of the company.  At this time, the olive branch extended by Samsung Group was truly an important part of the success of Taiwan United Technologies.  Lee Jae-chun is quite good to Cai Mingjie. He not only handed over Samsung's foundry to Taiwan Unicom, but also entrusted Taiwan Unicom to produce and develop the latest smartphone chip system.  Especially the latter, this has allowed the most elite and most important departments of Taiwan United Technology to be retained. Coupled with the cooperation with Samsung, it has further developed its chip system, and on the premise of accumulating experience, technology and funds  Only then can Taiwan United Technologies get to this point.  From this point, it can even be said that the current cooperation between Taiwan Unicom and Apple would have been impossible to succeed without the support of Samsung Group.  Therefore, in Cai Mingjie's eyes, Li Zaichuo is his benefactor.  It is for this reason that Li Zaicheng decided to team up with Zhou Liwen to target Shasha Hao's foundry. Although Cai Mingjie no longer wanted to fight Zhou Liwen because of this matter, he finally agreed to the other party, which led to what happened next.  A series of things.  Now, Lee Jae-chun and his son have lost control of the Samsung Group. In order to regain the Samsung industry, they turned to Cai Mingjie for help, and Cai Mingjie could not refuse.  What¡¯s more, Cai Mingjie must do this regardless of whether it¡¯s public or private.  As for the personal side, there is no need to say more. As mentioned before, Li Jae Chrome was kind to him.  As for the public aspect, of course, it is a series of measures taken by Lee Jae-hyun after he came to power. Because of the previous cooperation between Taiwan Unicom and Samsung Group, Lee Jae-hyun has already begun preparations to change foundries and chip system suppliers.  If it loses the Samsung Group as a major customer, even if there are current orders from Apple, then Taiwan Lianhe Technology will inevitably suffer huge losses.  It is for this reason that from Cai Mingjie's position, helping Li Zaichuo is helping himself.  And when Li Zai Chrome found him through normal business and entrusted him with help privately, Cai Mingjie agreed without much consideration.  "So that's it." After listening to Cai Mingjie's complaint, Zhou Liwen nodded in understanding.  No wonder a whole month has almost passed since Li Zaichun's visit to Shanghai, and he still hasn't given himself any reply.  After a long time of turmoil, the internal battle within the Samsung Group has reached a point of dire straits.  He is indeed a descendant of the Li family. The moves used by both sides are almost exactly the same, but the positions back then are now reversed.  "Lee Jae-chun and I have said that cooperation requires sincerity. I wonder if Director Cai brought sincerity to me today?" "Don't worry, Director Jay. If Mr. Li didn't make arrangements, I will  No matter how good the lobbyist is, he probably won't be able to convince Chairman Jay." Cai Mingjie laughed, then picked up the bag he was carrying with him, then took out a few pieces of information and handed it to Zhou Liwen.  "Dr. Jay, please look at it. This is Mr. Li's sincerity." Zhou Liwen took the information and was stunned after looking at it for a moment. He then raised his eyes and looked at Cai Mingjie, seeming to ask with doubts.  Cai Mingjie didn't say anything, he just nodded slightly at him and motioned for him to continue reading.  Zhou Liwen then continued to read, and it was not until he saw the end that he suddenly realized it, and a smile appeared on his face.  "Thankfully, Li Zaicun could come up with such a trick. Based on my understanding of him, I'm afraid this is not his style, right?" Zhou Liwen closed the document in his hand and asked with a smile.  Cai Mingjie showed an expression of appreciation in his eyes. He nodded and said, "Yes, this is what Mr. Li told me. Mr. Li is just following Mr. Li's arrangement." "No wonder" Zhou Liwen thought in his heart.  The answer was affirmative. He had this feeling after reading it just now. Such a complicated but truly sincere method could never have been thought up by Li Zaichuo, and only the old fox could think of it.  Then, Zhou Liwen looked at these things carefully again, feeling a little emotional while reading them.  Then he asked: "But Mr. Cai, this arrangement seems to have some losses for your company. Aren't you worried that I will go back on my words and follow Li Zai Chrome's bamboo basket to get nothing?" "Hahaha, if it were someone else, maybe I would.  I'm worried, but I'm definitely not worried about you, Director Jay." Cai Mingjie shook his head and laughed, who is the person who knows you best?  Not friends, not relatives, but former enemies.  Cai Ming took care of the grudges between Zhou Liwen and the two sides had been fighting openly and secretly for so many years, and they both knew each other well.  No matter what, although Zhou Liwen was ruthless, his business reputation was very good.  If nothing else, let¡¯s talk about the current Lee Jae-hyun and his son.  If it weren't for Zhou Liwen's strong support, how could they become the current controllers of Samsung Group?  Although Zhou Liwen is not the kind of person who is easily praised by others, it is the best affirmation for him to be able to say this from his former opponent.  What's more, with the thing that Cai Mingjie was entrusted to bring, although it was not Li Zaichun who directly transferred the Samsung Group equity he needed to Zhou Liwen in advance, it was?Not far off.  And there are some restrictions in it. It can be said that you can advance, attack, retreat or defend. Coupled with Cai Mingjie's endorsement from Taiwan United Technology, this is enough to express the sincerity of their father and son.  Of course, Zhou Liwen is not an unreasonable person, not to mention that this request was made by him.  In addition, now that Li Zaixian is keeping a close eye on Li Zaicheng, it is impossible for Li Zaicheng to directly transfer the equity in their father's and son's names to Zhou Liwen. If this is the case, not only will it not be effective, but it will be true.  Leading to the failure of Zhou Liwen's plan.  "After careful consideration, the old fox is an old fox. He can actually fight his way out of a dead end and use this method to achieve his goal.  If it were Zhou Liwen himself, he might not be able to think of this step. Zhou Liwen admired this very much.  "Chou, do you think?" Seeing Zhou Liwen flipping through the documents and not talking for a long time, Cai Mingjie wondered whether Zhou Liwen accepted this plan. After a while, he broke the calm and asked.  "I personally have no objection." Zhou Liwen said. Cai Mingjie was immediately happy. Zhou Liwen raised his hand and continued: "However, this plan is somewhat unexpectedly complicated. I have to discuss the overall implementation with professionals. Of course,  Don't worry, I will reply to you as soon as possible." "Okay, that's no problem." After hearing this, Zhou Liwen didn't agree directly, but at least he didn't refuse.  And based on Cai Mingjie's understanding of Zhou Liwen, he shouldn't miss this opportunity.  As for discussing with professionals, this is of course a must, and Cai Mingjie would do the same thing.  "I will stay in the United States for two more days. If Chairman Jay needs more time, please call me on this personal phone number then." Cai Mingjie took out a personal business card from his pocket, the kind that only has your name on it.  and a business card with a phone number that was for his personal use and unknown except to those very close to him.  "OK, I will contact you as soon as I have news." Zhou Liwen took the business card and glanced at it, then put it in his pocket and nodded with a smile.  Then, Cai Mingjie stood up and left, and Zhou Liwen personally escorted him out of the office until he watched the elevator go downstairs.  Zhou Liwen, who then returned to the office, picked up the phone and called the legal department, assets department and investment bank respectively, asking the principals of these departments to come to the meeting as soon as possible.  Two days later, Zhou Liwen contacted Cai Mingjie before he left the United States. Cai Mingjie rushed over as soon as he received the call.  This time, Cai Mingjie was received not only by Zhou Liwen, but also by his full-time lawyer from the legal department, and even Aaron from the investment bank.  "Director Cai, the plan is generally OK, but the details still need to be modified." Seeing Cai Mingjie enter, Zhou Liwen invited him to sit down first, and then said directly, "Detailed modifications? What are the specific ones?" Cai Mingjie asked.  Zhou Liwen pointed to the full-time lawyer and Aaron, first introduced their identities to Cai Mingjie, and then said: "Let them talk about this. If Director Cai thinks it is okay, I will deal with something first." "Of course you can.  , Chairman Jay, please do it." Cai Mingjie nodded in agreement without any surprise.  Then Zhou Liwen walked out of the office directly. He did not deal with anything, but went to another office next to him, drinking coffee and waiting leisurely for the outcome of their discussion.  About half an hour later, the phone on the table suddenly rang. Zhou Liwen picked it up, listened, said a few words, and then hung up the phone.  A few minutes later, the full-time lawyer from the legal department walked into the office with Aaron and nodded to Zhou Liwen with a relaxed smile.  "Mr. Cai has left. We sent someone to escort him out of the company." "He didn't complain about anything, did he?" Zhou Liwen asked with a smile.  "How is that possible? He is a businessman." Aaron replied with a smile.  "Let's talk about the specific situation, let's talk about the legal aspect first." Zhou Liwen turned his attention to the full-time lawyer of the legal department.  "There are basically no legal problems. After all, this involves legal issues in the United States, South Korea and the Taiwan Strait. Some conflicts in the previous plan have been adjusted. The other party has confirmed this." The full-time lawyer said.  Zhou Liwen thanked him for his hard work, and this result was normal for him. It was expected in advance.  Then, Zhou Liwen looked at Aaron, who shrugged and said: "I only solved half of it. As we discussed, the details of the plan were adjusted. However, Mr. Cai told me that he was not the final decision-maker, so in  He needs authorization on some issues that go beyond the previous boundaries, so" "What are those specifically?" Zhou Liwen interrupted him and asked directly.  Aaron took out a piece of paper and wrote down the detailed adjustment plan on it, with notes at the end.  Questions that required authorization were all marked. Zhou Liwen looked at them carefully and said nothing. This was basically what he had expected before. However, there were some conditions that Cai Mingjie agreed to for Li Zaichuo that surprised him. It seemed that  This time Li Zaicheng has authorized Cai Mingjie in advance, and Cai Mingjie??He is not just a lobbyist or a microphone, on the contrary, he also plays a big role in it.  Cai Mingjie has already left. If everything goes well, he will contact Li Zaichuo as soon as possible to convey his request in this regard.  After all, this is a big deal that cannot be taken lightly, and it is not as simple as going to the mall to buy something. Coordination between the two parties, including bargaining, is also necessary.  Zhou Liwen is not in a hurry, and he also knows that this matter cannot be rushed.  Besides, it was just an unexpected surprise that Li Zaicheng found him to cooperate. Now Aaron has almost arranged some steps in terms of capital. Even without Li Zaicheng, Zhou Liwen can still get what he needs by spending more time and energy.  .  However, Li Zaicheng came over by himself, which made Zhou Liwen much more relaxed. And in Zhou Liwen's opinion, if Li Zaixian stepped down and someone else came to power, it might not be as good as Li Zaicheng and his son. At least they had a basis for cooperation, and  Judging from Li Zaichuo's current mentality and steady work, at least Zhou Liwen can control this guy.  (I have something to do today, so I will post a big post asking for votes and recommendations)
