Age of Dreams

Others only know that there are antivirus software such as Kaspersky, Norton, and Red Umbrella, but they don't know that there are actually many foreign companies that do computer antivirus software.

I dare not say that it is too many to describe it, but the number of a few is used, otherwise the security kernel technology of 360 would not be so easy to buy.

Xiao Qi will not buy the technology of American antivirus software companies. These companies are like the American military. They are not honest people. They like to keep some backdoors. Don’t cause trouble for yourself. That’s called it. Crying without tears.

Teenagers will not buy the technology of China’s anti-virus software company, because no matter which one they are, they are very weak in real technology, otherwise they will not be beaten by Kaspersky almost without a foothold in a year or two. .

Therefore, from the very beginning, Xiao Qi set the target of the acquisition in European countries.

Compared to the treacherous Americans, Europeans are still much more kind.

Kaspersky...No, not to mention its large scale and high cost. People are not short of money at all and it is impossible to sell it.

There is another Russian anti-virus software Dr.web (dr.web), the technology is also very good, but if you look at its research and development unit-the Russian National Academy of Sciences, you will know that it is impossible to sell technology to Chinese people. Uncle Putin uses this software in his office. The core technology is sold to you. Is it for you to steal Russia's top secrets?

The Little Red Umbrella is from Germany. Xiao Qi has a natural lack of favor with Germans, so he put it aside for the time being.

There are two antivirus software companies in the Czech Republic, one is called a.vg and the other is called a.vast, both of which are among the top ten excellent security protection products in the world, and both companies are not expensive. One can cost about 400 million US dollars. If you buy it, the other one is slightly more expensive, and it only costs 500 million U.S. dollars, and the package is less than 1 billion.

The Czech Republic is a small country. The Fairy Company will not be much hindrance to buying their core technology and recruiting their research and development personnel.

In addition, Xiao Qi has another choice, and that is Romania's Bitdefender. This company is very good in the technology of personal computer user security protection. Kaspersky's comprehensive strength will lose to it. In the ranking of several authoritative websites in the past few years, Kaspersky ranked second. One is Bitdefender.

And in terms of the proportion of users in Western Europe, Bitdefender is better than Kaspersky.

The key point is that Bitdefender has not directly entered China for development. Its focus has always been the surrounding developed countries in Western Europe, so its reputation is not obvious.

Of course, one person is better. It does not mean that he will always be strong.

The same is true for a company.

Bitdefender was stronger than Kaspersky a few years ago, but Kaspersky has expanded in the world over the past few years and invested in technology research and development after making money. It has improved very quickly, and it has been completely overwhelmed last year. Bitdefender.

But it is undeniable. The group of engineers in Romania also have their own outstanding abilities, but their character and company expansion are obviously not good at keeping up with the market.

Because Bitdefender's development is only in the Western European circle, its current market value is similar to that of the two software companies in the Czech Republic, which is 500 million U.S. dollars.

One thing that is good for Xiao Qi is at the end of last year. An investment company injected capital into Bitdefender, and the major shareholder of this company is Green Pine Capital, which is Xiao Qi’s old friend!

If Xiao Qi wants to buy Bitdefender, it is definitely a good choice to find Green Pine Capital to negotiate on the one hand, and to buy the shares in Green Pine Capital on the other.

In contrast. The two Czech companies a.vg and a.vast are all controlled by several major Czech groups. As a country with underdeveloped electrical industries, these two anti-virus software companies are already the pride of the Czech Republic. The key lies in the establishment of the framework. After getting up. Its investment does not need to be large, and at present they are not planning to expand on a large scale, and there is no need for financing.

However, Xiao Qi will not give up hope. He will find the most professional brokerage company and negotiate with this antivirus software company at the same time. If he can buy one is one, he can buy all of them for less than one billion US dollars. In a super market with over 3 billion users and an overall output value of over 100 billion U.S. dollars, this amount of money is really not worth mentioning.

As for professional brokers?

Of course it is super multinational giants like Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan Chase and Citigroup!

Only they have great influence all over the world and can do this!

Xiao Qi didn't feel guilty at all for he had cheated them before, and now he has to ask them to help again and again.

That's how it is to do business!

Do you dare to say that Goldman Sachs stopped earning Xiao Qi's money because Xiao Qi pitted them several times?

What a joke!

When there is a business commission, they have to climb over!

After leaving the antivirus software company a little, Xiao Qi thought about another plunder in Europe.

Starting next year, Greece, a lazy country, will be punished, and then it will directly detonate the sovereign debt crisis of Spain, Portugal, Italy...and so on. To put it bluntly, it is a group of lazy and delicious goods!

However, several of them are the main forces in the entire Eurozone, and therefore the two giants, France and Germany, have suffered considerable losses.

Poor France and Germany were beaten up during the subprime mortgage crisis and the financial turmoil. They were able to recover a little bit, and they had to give blood to these countries. No wonder the Germans almost overthrew Merkel from office. .

If it weren’t for Merkel’s tearful cry in the House of Congress: “It’s so hard to unite as a whole. If we let our companions collapse, then our dream of a Europe will be shattered!” Such words would have reluctantly. Let Germany continue to push the EU forward.

Of course, what about these European countries has nothing to do with Xiao Qi. He can't wait to be like Britain, thinking about how to destroy Europe as a whole! ——Don’t doubt that during the financial crisis and the sovereign debt crisis, Britain’s image is absolutely negative, and it does not aid its “comrades” at all, because a whole Europe is not in the interests of the United Kingdom!

In the next few years in Europe, the economy will definitely be sluggish. For example, the unemployment rate of young people in Spain has reached 50%. You can imagine how miserable they are.

As for Greece?

Haha, the unemployed population in their country exceeds 50%, and there is nothing worse than them.

So in the next few years, Greece will sell almost everything.

Ports, airports, municipal buildings, land, islands... military bases can all be discussed if you are interested!

See!

Greece has already collapsed. In order to get rid of the national debt, they almost want to privatize all state-owned assets so that they can get rid of the debt.

Although it is shameless and has no bottom line, Xiao Qi has to say that this method is indeed useful and can help Greece to get out of the debt crisis in a certain way-if someone is really willing to take over these things.

If we say that in the future, Xiao Qi may be interested in certain things sold in Greece, but now, what he cares about is not these infrastructures, but some excellent electricity companies in Europe.

It should be noted that European electricity companies are not large in scale. They are not like Silicon Valley in the United States, where there are tens of thousands of engineers at every turn. Sometimes a few of them can form a company with 80% of the electricity. The number of company engineers does not exceed 100.

Because of their small size...

, So it is not as good as Silicon Valley companies in terms of development potential.

But don’t forget, the small scale does not mean that their technology is not good. In fact, the technology of European engineers is not inferior to that of the United States. If the United States had not absorbed talents from all over the world, they would definitely lose to Europe. Engineer's.

Xiao Qi also likes such small-scale companies, because it is convenient for him to buy these companies and send them directly to China to work.

Even if they don't want to come to Chengdu, Xiao Qi is willing to arrange a good working and living environment for them in the big cities of the East and Guangdong, which are many foreigners.

If it really doesn’t work, Xiao Qi can still sign a five-year work contract with them. After five years, they can leave China and do what they want to do with generous remuneration—for five years anyway. Time is enough for the engineers in the Fairy Lab to absorb their technical knowledge and experience.

There are actually many European companies that Xiao Qi covets.

First is the arm company, which is responsible for the chip plan of the cpu. Although dreampad and dreamstars are trying to use their own technology to weaken the technology of the arm, there is still no way to be completely independent in a short period of time.

For example, the British Imagine Technology Company, the company that makes GPU image processors for Xiao Qi ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ The Netherlands NXP Semiconductors, which provides fingerprint recognition technology to Xiao Qi, is also very good.

There is also Italy's STMicroelectronics, the world's leading semiconductor company, which also provides accelerators and other electrical components for the iPad.

In addition, the British csr company has world-leading technologies on chips, gps chips and Bluetooth chips. Xiao Qi said that he also likes it.

...

I think so, but basically none of the above-mentioned companies can be won.

Because the West has considerable technical barriers to Chinese companies.

In the past, Xiao Qi bought their mature technology, and it was a publicly disclosed technical solution. There is no problem, but if these technologies and talents are put together, the institutions in the country where they are located, I am afraid they will not agree.

If you want to truly master these advanced technologies, I'm afraid you have to mediate and work harder during the debt crisis!
