Chapter 1411 Qualcomm is in trouble
Chapter 1411 Qualcomm is in trouble
In the evening, Lu Feng returned to Xianyun Manor.
Although he spoke very casually during the day, the difficulty of breaking through the numerous blockades and obtaining various raw materials was so great that even just thinking about it made him shake his head.
But even if it's very difficult, there's no other way. It's the path I chose, and I have to finish it no matter how hard it gets.
Back in his own study, he took out his phone and dialed Qian Xuejun's number, asking him to help him get some raw materials.
The reason he made the first call to Qian Xuejun was also due to his own considerations. Unlike other raw materials, chip raw materials cannot be produced without advanced technology.
It's not something that an ordinary company or group can handle.
Of course, this certainly doesn't include the Central Academy of Sciences. As the most prestigious scientific institution in China, Lu Feng believes that the Central Academy of Sciences must have its own unique path.
And the facts proved that his idea was correct. After using the personal favor that Qian Xuejun owed him, the president of the Intermediate People's Court also agreed to help him get a batch of raw materials.
The only regret is that Qian Xuejun only agreed to bring over a batch, rather than a continuous supply.
However, for the current Landwind, this is better than nothing.
After hanging up with Qian Xuejun, Lu Feng then dialed the phone numbers of Robert, the vice president of the Caesar Group in the United States, as well as Hernjed, Snake, Enzo, and others.
He wants to use these people's influence abroad to help him get through this difficult time.
Of course, in addition to these connections, Lu Feng also made a second preparation, which was to directly purchase the raw materials for the chips from the system store.
However, since building the Heart of the Ocean Island requires a large number of building modules, he would not use his reputation points unless absolutely necessary.
After making all the calls, it was already past 10 p.m.
Lu Feng, lying in bed, still didn't rest.
Although the people he made those calls all agreed to help, he knew that this could only solve his immediate problems. As long as he couldn't resolve the issue of raw materials, Tenglong would not be able to take off completely.
"Looks like I'll have to go to the island tomorrow to see if the research institute can help solve this problem!"
Looking at the clock hanging on the wall, Lu Feng gradually drifted off to sleep.
Silent all night.
The next morning, after a simple breakfast, Lu Feng set off for the Heart of the Ocean.
At the same time, in the United States, at Qualcomm headquarters, the board meeting had just ended, and Lyman Monroe dragged his tired body back to his office.
At the meeting just now, those board members who only knew how to take money not only did not thank him for turning the tide and saving Qualcomm, but also complained that he had leaked some of Qualcomm's core information, causing Qualcomm to lose up to one billion dollars in just a few days.
If it weren't for his stable position at Qualcomm and the tough methods he displayed, he would have even had reason to suspect that the incompetent board of directors would have directly ousted him from the chairman's position.
"These ignorant fools, if it weren't for the fact that you're still somewhat useful to Qualcomm, I would have kicked you out long ago!"
In the chairman's office, Lyman Monroe angrily threw the neatly organized documents off the table.
As he said, if it weren't for the powerful forces behind each of those directors, he would have kicked them out as soon as he took over Qualcomm.
However, Qualcomm still needs these people's backgrounds as a backer and as a source of support.
Therefore, even if he wanted to kill these people right now, he couldn't drive them out.
After venting his frustrations, Lyman Monroe pressed the call button, instructing his secretary to summon Hawkins.
Shortly after receiving the order, Hawkins arrived at the office.
Upon seeing the documents scattered all over the floor, Hawkins immediately realized that his chairman was angry again, and his heart leaped into his throat in an instant.
"Chairman... is there something you need me for?"
He looked at Lyman Monroe cautiously, his voice as soft as could be.
"The internal network is now set up, but I'm telling you, I hope what happened before is the last time."
"If this happens again, don't say anything more, just pack your bags and leave!"
"do you understand?"
Lyman Monroe placed his hands on the table, exuding an aura of oppressive power, like a mountain.
"Yes... Don't worry... The engineering department has already implemented special defenses against the unknown virus from last time, and that will definitely not happen again!"
Hawkins swallowed hard and quickly made a promise.
However, despite his nice words, he and the entire engineering department actually had no good solutions for that unknown virus.
The only thing we can do is build more firewalls.
But this kind of thing definitely can't be reported. Otherwise, if Lyman Monroe finds out the truth, what a blow it would be to the entire engineering department and to him.
Lyman Monroe, who was sitting in the chair, nodded in satisfaction upon hearing this.
"Now that the internal network issue is resolved, we should start preparing to continue suppressing Tenglong and quell the public's criticism of us!"
It would be better if this matter weren't mentioned, but as soon as the recent insults directed at their group by the people of the United States are brought up, even Lyman Monroe feels a terrible headache.
Lu Feng's counterattack was absolutely disgusting.
It seems that Huayu's various agents did not directly suppress Qualcomm.
However, in reality, because of Liu Ruyan's righteous speech, people in the United States, Europe, and even other countries on Earth have developed a great aversion to Qualcomm.
The reaction from the public in the United States was the most intense. They not only cursed online, but some even went to the Qualcomm building with various banners, shouting that Qualcomm should get out of the United States.
These outrageous statements have had a significant impact on Qualcomm's overall reputation.
Therefore, after resolving the internal network issues, addressing public opinion became Qualcomm's top priority.
"How about... we lift the blockade against China?"
Hawkins' eyes lit up, and he came up with a plan.
In his view, since the public opinion incident was caused by their cutting off the supply of chips to China, why not just restore the supply directly?
However, no sooner had he uttered those words than he was met not with praise from Lyman Monroe, but with a pen holder thrown at him at lightning speed.
"Boom!"
A crisp collision sounded, and before Hawkins could even understand what had happened, a sharp pain shot through his forehead, followed by Lyman Monroe's furious voice:
"Fool! We paid such a high price to suppress the Chinese market. Now you want me to give up? Wouldn't all our previous efforts have been in vain?"
