Chapter 5273 Split
The era of big data!
"Then what do we need to do?" Fengjian Huilisha asked.
"Software, I think the 'Second World' is now divided into the hardware development department and the software development department. I plan to separate it into two companies. One is a separate software company, which mainly provides big data software services, which is also the core of the future. The other is the hardware of big data, and I plan to let 'Phantom Technology' acquire the hardware development department." Lin Feng said.
Fengjian Huilisha thought about it, nodded, and agreed with Lin Feng's proposal.
At present, the main profit point of the 'Second World' comes from the software development department, games and 'Pangu system', which are the main revenue points at present. Especially with the launch of the 'Fuxi' mobile phone, more and more mobile phone development software is developed based on the Pangu system, which also brings a lot of revenue to the company. In this case, the software department's income is getting higher and higher, bringing tens of billions of dollars in net profit every year, while the hardware department is barely maintaining operations, and even has to make a slight loss. This is certainly partly for the sacrifice of the company as a whole, but the profit is too weak, which is inevitably disliked by the software department. After all, apart from the hardware department, the software department has higher income, which is a good thing.
As for 'Meiying Technology', to build the 'Fuxi' mobile phone, it needs hardware development capabilities, and 'Meiying Technology' is a cash cow. The huge cash brought by the 'Fuxi' mobile phone allows 'Meiying Technology' to have the strength to acquire the hardware department and continue to develop. This kind of cooperation between the two parties is naturally a good thing!
"Then announce it to the public!" Lin Feng said with a smile.
Lin Feng holds nearly 40% of the company's shares, plus the shares held by Li Zekai, basically what Lin Feng decides is the final result. Of course, from a procedural point of view, a shareholders' meeting is still required.
However, the process is very easy and simple. All the people in the software development department agree that the company should sell the hardware department and turn the company into a pure software company. As for the hardware development department, all the staff unexpectedly agree with this. Over the years, they have been bullied in the company. There is no way, their hardware development department is purely a department that drags down their feet. Not only is it not profitable, but it will even lose a lot of money next year. This makes them look aggrieved every time they see the software development department. Now it is separated, it couldn't be better. That way, they can start over in another place without having to suffer here. And in the future, the two sides will be in a cooperative status, instead of always being inferior to each other like now.
After getting the approval of all members, Fengjian Huilisha immediately announced that the "Second World" would sell the company's hardware development department to "Phantom Technology" for $23 billion for company strategic considerations. As soon as the news came out, the stock price of "Second World" soared!
In one day, it soared to $730 per share, and the market value of the entire "Second World" also reached a shocking $511 billion.
This is the company with the highest market value in the history of the earth. $511 billion, which also makes Lin Feng's net worth, just in the "Second World", as high as $187.1 billion!
And the industry is also optimistic about this transformation of the "Second World". In the past few years, the Second World has been focusing on software. To the outside world, the Second World is a software company. The previous acquisition of the hardware department was a bit of a rush. At that time, it was mainly to fight against Intel. After that, Intel is no longer a big threat. It is a wise move to separate it now. And it was sold at a high price of 23 billion US dollars. This is a very cost-effective deal.
As for Phantom Technology, it is mainly hardware-based, but it needs to find the Second World to buy key accessories. Although the company is owned by Lin Feng, there are still connection problems. There is still a delay in time. Now that it has been acquired, these problems will not exist. It can be said that it is a good thing for both parties. This is a win-win situation.
Of course, Tang Jun of Phantom Technology felt a little shocked when he heard the news. Because he just learned the news. Lin Feng told him that "Meiying Technology" would acquire the hardware department of "Second World" for 23 billion US dollars. Before he could come to his senses, chew on it carefully, and think carefully about what benefits it would bring to the company, "Second World" had already announced the news.
In this regard, Tang Jun could only smile bitterly. His boss was too fast and too amazing. Of course, this is a good thing. It is a good thing for "Meiying Technology". In particular, "Meiying Technology" now has so much cash. If it is kept in hand, it would be a waste and a waste. It is the best thing to use it to acquire a company. For the company, the best acquisition is a hardware company that can produce mobile phone hardware. At present, the hardware department of "Second World" is the most suitable object.
Of course, even if it is not suitable, Tang Jun will not say anything. The reason is very simple. Lin Feng holds an absolute controlling stake of 90%, which gives Lin Feng absolute say in this company. No matter what is acquired, Lin Feng has the final say, and he can only support it and must support it. If he doesn’t support it, he will have to leave. And he doesn’t think there is any company with more development potential than ‘Phantom Technology’.
With the completion of this transaction, the Second World has become a pure software company, and the company has been divided again in detail. In addition to the ten major game departments, it is also divided into the Operating System Department and the Application Software Department. These are the newly re-divided independent departments. In the past, these two departments were just a vassal department of the Hardware Development Department, serving the Hardware Development Department. Now, they will have completely independent rights. "Everyone, the company has become a completely independent software company. The company will also give you greater rights, more voice, and more independent development rights. But at the same time, your responsibilities and pressures are also heavier!" Lin Feng also held a shareholders' meeting after the acquisition was completed.
Everyone was refreshed. The company became a pure software company, and all the company's resources would be tilted towards them, unlike before, when most of the resources were invested in the hardware development department. After all, the hardware development department has always spent several times more money than the software development department, but the result is that the company's overall profit is needed to subsidize it. This naturally made the software development department feel unfair.
Of course, this kind of unfairness, most of them just expressed it privately, and no one dared to bring it up at such a shareholders' meeting. This is naturally because of Lin Feng's absolute dominance. Facing Lin Feng, no one dared to question Lin Feng's decision, because it was Lin Feng who asked for the acquisition. And this fear, even if Lin Feng was no longer the president of the company, and Fengjian Hui Lisa took over as the president, no one dared to question Lin Feng's original decision.
Because for the "Second World", Lin Feng is unique, and none of them is unique. Without them, the "Second World" can spend money to hire better people, and without Lin Feng, the company has lost its soul and leader.
"Since the company's resources will be tilted towards three departments in the future, then I will put forward my request here. The game department, "Game Parallel Space", this must be solved. At present, Mr. Hawking's theory has been completed, and the final practice is missing. Currently, there is "Nu Wa" to help it verify it. I am afraid that the mature theory will be proposed by the end of the year at the earliest. And I hope that the game department can launch the "Parallel Space Theory" at the latest next year, so that players can break the void and enter the parallel world!" Lin Feng asked.
The breathing of the top ten game departments has become rapid. This really needs to be worked hard. They really didn't expect Hawking's theory to be established so quickly. Of course, Hawking was able to establish the theory so quickly because Hua Shiqi's body was well taken care of. Although he still couldn't speak, his spirit was much better. With the help of the artificial synthetic voice system, he could speak like a normal person. This also led to Hawking having more time to deduce his space theory.
"As for the system department, I hope to launch the second-generation system as soon as possible, that is, the 'Nuwa system'. This time, we must completely defeat 'Microsoft'. Now is the Internet era, and the era of 'Microsoft's' stand-alone system is outdated. What we have to do is to surpass 'Microsoft' and make the 'Nuwa system' the only system of choice for humans in the future, and it is a three-network system. Personal computers, servers, mobile phones, three systems merged into one!" Lin Feng asked.
This time, it was the turn of the newly independent 'system department' to take a deep breath. Completely defeating 'Microsoft' is a very high requirement! However, they are confident that they will definitely be able to surpass 'Microsoft'.
"As for the 'Application Software Development Department', what I want to say is that now is the era of big data. What I want to do is to make humans rely on our software to live. If we can't do this, it will be our failure! I don't care how you do it, you must develop software that makes humans rely on us. Food, clothing, housing, transportation, everything depends on us. And at present, the best medium is the mobile phone. In this regard, you need to coordinate and communicate more with 'Phantom Technology'. The mobile phone as a medium will be the main device for humans to access the Internet. You must develop application software more with mobile phones as a medium! And this market has a bright future. Because spending on computers is far less easy and direct than spending on mobile phones." Lin Feng ordered.
The era of big data is coming. If Lin Feng wants to become a world leader and a pioneer of this era, he must take the lead in the era of big data! And in the era of big data, the mobile phone interface is the key! (To be continued...)
