Super Tycoon - Chapter 822
This time Zhang Yang came to Silicon Valley to come to the shareholders meeting of Chaowei Eagle Weida. At this shareholders meeting, there will be a major event. Jerry Sanders, the founder and helm of Chaowei Semiconductor, is finally retiring.
Jerry Sanders sat on the main table of the long table, looked at the representatives of other shareholders, and sighed.
In fact, he had plans to retire a few years ago, his health is not as good as a year, is it not good to enjoy life in retirement? There are so many female models waiting for him, and there are so many parties to attend.
However, Chaowei Semiconductor and Eagle Weida merged. He was worried that the selected people would not be able to overwhelm the field, and Jason Huang took away all rights, so he continued to serve as chairman.
Of course, it was also related to Zhang Yang’s unintended competition for the position of chairman at that time.
In the past two years, Super Eagle Eagle Weida has made great progress. Originally, in 2007, the share of CPU and GPU increased rapidly, and even the CPU once approached 50%.
But in 2008, it went downhill again, because of the Intel and launched a series of low-end CPUs specifically for netbooks.
And netbooks are the fastest growing notebook products in the past two years, and even many companies’ netbooks sell much faster than business office books.
If it is not Chaowei Eagle Weida launched APU, I am afraid that the share will fall below 40%. How can the market share that has been improved finally fall again?
And the solution solution business of Chaowei Eagle Weida also went downhill last year. Many of their customers went bankrupt last year. This kind of thing Sanders did not expect before.
As a shareholder representative, Jason Huang questioned his work on the board of directors in the fourth quarter of last year, and then proposed that Sanders retire.
Fortunately, it was Zhang Yang who said something, so that Sanders did not leave the get out of class halfway.
This year also happens to be in office. Jerry Sanders will officially retire after this meeting and retire from all management positions, only as an idle shareholder plus a nominal advisor.
“Cough.” Jason Wong coughed, reminding Sanders, what else do you insist on, and do not have a meeting to announce your retirement decision?
Face has been given to you, if you don’t know it, it will become more embarrassing.
Jerry Sanders sat up straight: “Everyone, today is Chaowei Eagle Weida’s first shareholders meeting this year. There are many important issues at this meeting. But before that, please allow me to resign as chairman The title.”
Other shareholder representatives have been notified long ago, so there is no surprised expression, but it is polite to say that Sanders has devoted so long, it should be a break.
“So the first issue of this general meeting of shareholders is to elect a new board member, especially the new chairman. As a shareholder representative, I nominate Zhang to serve as chairman.”
“I will not introduce Zhang’s resume, everyone should be familiar with it, and know that he is the richest man in the world for two years. And he is so young, he is ahead of his mind, and the APU developed under his leadership has opened up new markets for the company. .”
“Other shareholders, do you have a new nomination for the chairman? No? Then raise your hand to vote. I agree with Zhang becoming the new chairman of Chaowei Eagle Weida.”
Sanders raised his hand for the first time, and all other shareholder representatives also raised their hands. The voting right here has already passed half, and it will naturally take effect.
Sanders stood up and sat down on the empty seat next to him, making a gesture of welcoming to Zhang Yang. Zhang Yang was also polite, got up from the side, and sat down on the throne.
“Everyone, since I have chosen to support me as the new chairman of Chaowei Eagle Weida, I also promise to lead the company to a higher level.”
“The next issue, select the new board members, all shareholder representatives can nominate.”
Unsurprisingly, except Sanders withdrew from the board of directors, the previous members of the board of directors continued to serve, and also added Pan Xiaoming, president of the Greater China Region, as a director.
“I remember Sanders implemented the company reorganization before. At that time, because APU research and development entered a critical period, some business reorganization was not thorough.”
“This year, I hope to be able to complete the reorganization completely, and all the subsidiaries coordinate with each other and make progress together. Can you take responsibility for this matter?”
Jason Huang immediately stated: “No problem, I will definitely complete the reorganization as soon as possible, so that the company’s business will be taken to the next level.”
“Very good. Then proceed to the next issue, increase APU’s technology research and development costs, this is one of our fastest-growing products, the company has recently received a lot of orders, there will be more next year.”
Next year there will be more companies producing tablet computers, and an APU developed by Chaowei Eagle Weida specifically for tablet computers is the first choice of all manufacturers.
In fact, when Apple started to make tablets in the previous life, everyone chose the ARM architecture more, but this time is different. ARM is definitely not an opponent of Chaowei Eagle Weida.
This issue was quickly passed. It was nothing more than how much the research and development expenses increased. As soon as Zhang Yang said that it was enough to add two hundred million dollars, no one objected.
Jason Huang is not interested in these issues. He is more interested in whether the company’s management will change, for example, will the two co-CEOs become one?
The burden of reorganizing the company’s business has been given to him, should it be okay? But I am not sure, after all, he is not too young.
“Our goal this year is to get more than 45 percent of the CPU market, and 50 percent next year. I have a habit that I don’t like to fall behind others.”
“GPU I hope to be able to suppress ~www.mtlnovel.com~ this year to take up more share and continue to eat away from Intel’s share. Before entering the field of engineering chips, the development is general, this year I hope to go further.”
“This matter, Jason, can you guarantee it?”
Jason Huang has a bitter face. He will fight against Intel next year. The GPU share will increase and the field of engineering chips will also increase. This is too difficult.
If it is a job, he is confident, but it is not just a job.
“I can guarantee that the GPU suppresses ATI, others dare not promise.”
Zhang Yang nodded, did not assume any responsibility, and wanted to be the only CEO? This matter is difficult to accomplish, but you have to show confidence.
“Hegter, are you responsible for the CPU surpassing, are you confident?”
“Yes!” Hegart Ritz replied loudly. He thought that after Zhang Yang came to power, his position as co-CEO would not be guaranteed.
Now that the other party has given a chance, how can he give up?
“Well, then this is the main topic of this meeting, who has any issues to propose?” Zhang Yang looked around for a week, and no one said anything.
“Then let’s break up. Tonight, I arranged a banquet. Thank you Mr. Sanders for your dedication to the company. Come here every time you have time and bring a female companion.”
