Are you interested in Texas Instruments’ fab Lee Kun-hee?

Jester guessed that he was interested because he knew Lee Kun-hee’s inner thoughts very well. He wanted Samsung to rise as soon as possible and was already worried about eating and sleeping. Obtaining the world’s most advanced wafer factory production line is very helpful for him to enhance Samsung Electronics’ competitiveness.

Moreover, based on the later generations of Lee Kun-hee's construction of Samsung Group, Jester found that although Samsung hates Japan, their corporate management philosophy is very similar to that of Japanese companies, that is, they are open-minded, but in fact they are closed.

Many people now criticize the Japanese company's own system, which is a self-contained system and is almost closed to the outside world. However, Samsung was not the case later. Samsung can actually complete all the processes of a product, from raw materials to finished products, all the accessories needed in this production process.

How narrow is this in the world business landscape with integrated thinking? You should know that even Americans and European large passenger aircraft still purchase parts from all over the world and then assemble them, so as to improve work efficiency and reduce production costs as much as possible. Samsung's model, which works from beginning to end, can certainly ensure that many Samsung's departments, with millions of employees in the future, will make profits - but these profits are actually bleeding from the company.

This is also why, in later generations, Samsung's family had a great business but its profit was not very high, because they did too many things and shared the profits they should have as a whole.

But this is a future thing, and Jester doesn't need to worry about it now.

Moreover, the reason why Samsung can have such a high status in South Korea in the future and Lee Kun-hee is respected as the shadow president by the benevolent people is that it is because Samsung has forcibly kidnapped the entire South Korea economically through this influence that is spreading and ubiquitous influentially?

Samsung today, or Lee Kun-hee, should still not have such courage. Although Samsung is indeed a first-class consortium in Korea today, it is not without its hint that it is more wealthy and powerful than Samsung. Maybe Lee Kun-hee is just trying to make Samsung become the largest consortium in South Korea as soon as possible.

One of the things that kidnapped the South Korean economy and became the shadow president of South Korea, from now on, this is a complete joke. You should know that the current South Korea is not the later South Korea, and the current South Korea is still a veritable dictatorship.

After the meeting, Jester immediately contacted Lee Kun-hee. As for his daughter whom Lee Kun-hee entrusted to him to take care of him, Lee Kun-hee could only find someone to accompany him on his behalf. He really couldn't get rid of himself now.

Although it was late at night in South Korea, Jester's phone number had just dialed. In the United States, a few seconds, the sound from the other side came. Moreover, Jester seemed to be a little tired when he heard the sound. It should be because he has not yet gone to bed.

Lee Kun-hee's voice was a little hoarse. He just heard the director of the amusement park project report to him today. His daughter insisted on staying with Jester, so he said in a joke: "It's not my daughter who caused you trouble. Come and call me to complain, right?"

Of course, Jester or Lee Kun-hee knows it. This sentence is just a joke. Not to mention whether there is one or not. Even if there is one, according to Jester's character, he would not call Lee Kun-hee to complain about the other party's daughter late at night. How annoying is his woman?

"no."

Jester was also amused by Lee Kun-hee's words. He denied it first, then he thought about his own language before starting to say: "It's about several world-class wafer fabs."

“Faster?”

Hearing Jester's words, Lee Kun-hee didn't react for a while. He wondered why Jester suddenly mentioned the problem of the wafer factory. Could it be that Jester wanted to enter this industry? However, when this idea was just born, he instantly rejected it himself. His Samsung Electronics has a wafer factory, but it was because of the wafer factory that he realized that it was not a smart move to join this industry rashly. In Lee Kun-hee's eyes, Jester is a person who is smarter than time. He could not do such a thankless thing at the beginning.

"Yes, the wafer fab, but it's not that I plan to do it, but..." Sure enough, Jester just spoke up and confirmed Lee Kun-hee's guess in his heart, and then continued, "It's Texas Instruments. They plan to move several large wafer fabs in the United States to Asia and are looking for partners. They have contacted Wang Yongqing, but the Formosa Plastics is now busy with Liu Qing, so there is no time to do any wafer fabs. And I heard that Wanwan is still interested in this project, and I remembered that you have complained about your wafer fabs being backward before? So I contacted Texas Instruments. After they learned that you are interested, they were very excited and wanted me to check with you again."

“Texas Instruments’ Fabs?”

Maybe it was because it was late at night in South Korea, Lee Kun-hee was still a little drowsy. She didn't understand what Jester was saying for a while. After he followed Jester's original words and repeated them, he could no longer sit still. He stood up and asked in an incredible tone: "Is it Texas Instruments?"

"Of course, I thought CEO had talked about this."

Jester said in a positive tone, and this answer made Lee Kun-hee even more interested. He rubbed his palms unconsciously, and then said in an extremely eager tone: "Can you confirm which wafer fabs are theirs?"

"Hold on."

Jester said this first. When he talked to Texas Instruments people, the other party mentioned it before, but he was not familiar with him after all, and he didn't remember it. Fortunately, the other party left a document about this matter at that time. Jester casually searched it and took out a stack of not very thick documents, looked it through and browsed it quickly, and then said to Lee Kun-hee: "It's four, one is in Louis..."

Hearing Jester's answer, there was no sound from Lee Kun-hee on the other end. Obviously, he was also looking for some documents or someone in charge of this aspect. It took ten minutes before Lee Kun-hee's voice came back from the other end of the phone. Although you could still hear the unconcealed fatigue in the voice, this time it became obvious that he had become extremely excited.

"Jess, I just checked the documents on this aspect. These fabs are very important to us. Although this is not the most advanced fab for Texas Instruments, it is still very advanced for us. The most important thing is that I saw a report before, which seemed to mention that Texas Instruments seemed to be planning to stop their fab production lines, including the most advanced ones. This time, I think they might be testing the waters."

"Are you sure you want to take down these four fabs of Texas Instruments?" Although he had heard this from Lee Kun-hee's words, Jester still made a statement to confirm that this matter was unscrupulous. If he didn't ask clearly, he would cough himself in a shameful way in the future.

"certainly."

Lee Kun-hee said in an extremely anxious tone, and even, of course, the two words could not express his mood at this moment. He continued to say unsatisfiedly: "If it weren't for the fact that I really couldn't live without playing it now, I really wanted to... No, this fact is too important, almost related to our Samsung's future. I will go to the United States again this time no matter what."

Jester did not persuade him, because Lee Kun-hee didn't do it himself, and he could not show his importance. Moreover, in Texas Instruments, they would be satisfied when they saw the current head of Samsung discussing this matter in person. This shows that Samsung attaches great importance to them. Besides, although he is the second largest shareholder of Samsung, it is impossible for him to do these things for Samsung, because he did not hold any position except for a nominal executive director.

"About what time? I can reply to Texas Instruments to prepare them." Jester asked Lee Kun-hee directly about the time he came to the United States in neatly.

Hearing Jester's question, Lee Kun-hee should have been in the process of thinking. After all, going to the United States to discuss such an important thing is not a day or two, it may take at least a week or even more than half a month. Now he is in the process of reform, and he must make all arrangements.

After waiting for three or five minutes, Lee Kun-hee seemed to figure it out. He said to Jester: "Three days! I will set off for the United States in three days, and because my own time is very tight, I hope you will briefly talk to Texas Instruments on my behalf. I am personally very interested in your wafer fab. I can also show my sincerity when I come in person, but due to internal reasons, I cannot leave for too long. I personally and for my strong personal wish, I really want to negotiate this matter in a short time."

"No problem." Jester naturally had no objection to this. As for the meeting with Texas Instruments, we can also see the other party's attitude from the other party's words. Texas Instruments does not want to wait for a price, because there is nothing to sell. There are many people who want wafer fabs, but few have the conditions. So far, the ability and urgent thing may be TSMC and Samsung.
