The wafer foundry is still just a concept.

Even if Su Yehao wanted to discuss cooperation with Qualcomm, he couldn't offer any concrete plans or prices. It's a bit too early to talk about these things now.

Then there's Qualcomm's mobile phone production business.

Coo Gray's meaning was quite clear: as long as Qualcomm could gain benefits in other areas, they could lower the price of transferring the mobile phone business as a package.

Although these Qualcomm executives no longer cared about the mobile phone business and didn't want to keep investing in it,

the real money had been spent, so they had to sell it for a good price to give the board of directors and shareholders an explanation, and to avoid making the pdQ mobile phone project look like too much of a failure.

The question of how much the price could be lowered depended on what bargaining chips Su Yehao could bring to the table. If he agreed to purchase two or three billion US dollars worth of mobile phone chips, it probably wouldn't be a problem to give it away for free.

Currently, Qualcomm has divested its other businesses and is focusing on communication technology research and development, as well as semiconductor chip research.

If Su Yehao could purchase chips in large quantities and pay patent fees for producing mobile phones, it would undoubtedly be a huge benefit for Qualcomm, with the opportunity to stimulate the stock price to reach new highs.

The specific cooperation plan still needs to be studied further.

Therefore, today was just an initial contact, and Su Yehao quickly excused himself, saying he had something to do, and left Qualcomm with his people.

Before leaving, he even specifically requested to visit the Cdma laboratory.

As one of the major shareholders of Yahoo, yet single-handedly snatching Yahoo's market share in the search engine field through Google, Su Yehao himself felt a little sorry for Yang Zhiyuan, so he was a little apprehensive when he received the call.

They say that personal feelings are personal feelings, and business is business, but how can these things be easily separated?

After hanging up the phone, Su Yehao said with a headache:

"Could it be that he's going to interrogate me? Although the increase in the number of new internet users makes the data look good, the decline of Yahoo's market share by three percentage points is the key concern for investors. I really don't understand why these people always like to gather together. Only a fool would sit next to a competitor and share good ideas. Are we supposed to meet and shamelessly pretend nothing happened?"

Yin Liuli didn't know the details, only saying, "We can go to the aquarium next time. It's okay, if you have something to do, you can go ahead."

"Come with me, it's just some Silicon Valley businessmen, playing cards and drinking."

Su Yehao sighed, adding, "If it's a blessing, it's not a disaster; if it's a disaster, you can't avoid it. I already refused to visit his home last time, another refusal would make me seem petty. I'll talk to him face to face."

Unknowing, Yin Liuli was slightly bewildered upon hearing this.

On the way to the cigar salon, she learned the whole story and felt it was no big deal, after all, there was no stealing or robbing, just fair competition.

Arriving at a villa located in Menlo Park.

In broad daylight, the curtains were drawn, and the indoor lighting was dim.

Yang Zhiyuan saw Yin Liuli and said with a polite smile, "Miss Yin is here too. I just saw a bottle of pink sweet sparkling wine on the shelf, should I have someone pour you a glass to try? I may not admire Little Su's business skills, but in terms of aesthetics, I truly admire him."

Su Yehao spoke with a smile, taking the initiative to tease,

"Of course, I was captivated by Liuli at first sight. By the way, you're still in the mood to organize a poker game? Be careful, I'll complain to the other shareholders. The development speed of the Google I invested in is so fast, you should think about why."

Having built such a large business, Yang Zhiyuan seemed carefree, but he also had pride in his heart.

After hearing Su Yehao's words, he replied,

"You don't need to remind me, I've already studied it, okay? Even without your Google, there would probably be other companies appearing as our competitors."

"Google is indeed very useful, the algorithm is better than the Yahoo I developed, and user reviews are particularly high. It's a pity that if you don't sell ads, you'll eventually drain your wallet. Without long-term advantages, you'll still have to bow down to advertisers in the end."

"Besides, Yahoo's stock price is still rising, there are so many new internet users, there's enough market for everyone to share."

Hearing this,

Yin Liuli remained silent, stifling a laugh as she glanced at Su Yehao, instantly recalling his earlier statement that "only a fool would sit next to a competitor and share good ideas."

Su Yehao realized that Yang Zhiyuan didn't take Google seriously, and suddenly realized that he had worried for nothing.

Yahoo's current scale is almost ten times that of Google, and its advertising business is also developing well.

In contrast, Google is relying on his investment to support it, like a money-guzzling beast, burning more than 80 million US dollars in half a year.

As the number of users increases, the speed of burning money is constantly accelerating.

The number of Google employees quickly exceeded three hundred, meaning that labor costs alone amount to as much as 50 to 60 million US dollars per year. The annual salary of some professional managers and top engineers is as high as 500,000 US dollars or more.

Compared with labor costs, the cost of attracting users is the real big expense.

Calculating the cost of acquiring new users, it averages around twenty-two US dollars, equivalent to burning money all the way to get where it is today.

Yahoo is well-known, and the cost of acquiring users is only one-third of Google's.

According to venture capital firms, it's not enough to just look at the scale of users. In the end, the true value of a company will be determined by its performance and revenue.

Looking at it this way,

it's no wonder that Yang Zhiyuan is not only not worried but even seems to be looking forward to Su Yehao's misfortune.

Sitting next to the poker table, chatting while waiting for other poker buddies, a hot blonde waitress trimmed a large Havana cigar for Su Yehao.

Staring at the waitress without blinking, Yang Zhiyuan, like many married men, waited for the waitress to leave before whispering,

"Her name is Laura. Last time, she wrote her number on a napkin and handed it to me. Later, afraid of being discovered at home, I threw it into the trash can. I really envy you unmarried guys, handsome and rich, you can be as unrestrained as you want."

"So proactive? That's right, I've long heard that American girls are very open, it would be strange if a diamond bachelor like you wasn't targeted."

After Su Yehao finished speaking, he stared at the waitress's hourglass figure.

When he caught a glimpse of Yin Liuli out of the corner of his eye, he pretended to be nonchalant, looking up at the ceiling, looking around.

Smoking a cigar, Yang Zhiyuan spoke again, asking,

"Let's talk about something serious. SoftBank of Japan will be here later. Is your Google willing to be sold externally? For around 1.2 billion US dollars..."
