After a pause for a few seconds, he answered:

"To say that Qualcomm is the most advanced chip company, this evaluation is definitely biased."

"Let's not mention Apple and Samsung's technology in application processors. Let's take the domestic SMIC as an example. They announced the 40nm process technology last year."

"And, according to their predictions, as long as the problems with the lithography machine are solved, they can move the application chip to the 20nm level in the shortest possible time."

"This short period of time will definitely not exceed two years."

"Brother Liu, can you understand what I mean?"

"What I mean is that not only is Qualcomm not the 'strongest' now, it's even still a generation behind SMIC."

Liu Hai nodded silently and did not answer immediately.

In fact, regardless of technology, Liu Hai knew that Qualcomm could not beat SMIC, even if it was just analyzed from the perspective of industry development, so he was a little uneasy about speaking out of conscience.

But the problem is, this is what you are talking about. Even if you tell lies with your eyes open, you still have to get to the bottom of it.

So, he continued to speak:

"SMIC's current strength is indeed very strong, but you also know that their business is newly developed."

"The process is not fully understood, the management is relatively extensive, and even the salary is only half of Qualcomm's."

"Look, we are all ordinary people. When we think about problems, we can't be too macroscopic. We have to consider ourselves."

"Qualcomm's salary of RMB 17,000 and SMIC's salary of more than RMB 5,000 are quite different, right?"

Bu Kai smiled and asked:

"How many years can Qualcomm's salary of 17,000 last?"

"What's the meaning?"

Liu Hai was stunned and asked subconsciously.

"What I mean is that Qualcomm's current high wages are entirely based on their technology monopoly."

"But what if one day, their technology monopoly is completely broken?"

“It’s not just mobile phone application processor technology, but also other storage, wireless, transmission and even the monopoly on ‘industry standards’, have all been completely broken?”

"When the time comes, will they still be able to maintain such high wages?"

"What should I do if I can't maintain it or even lay off employees?"

"You know, you have to sign a non-competition agreement to join this kind of company. I don't want to be held up by it for the rest of my life."

".But the possibility you described won't actually happen in the short term, right?"

Liu Hai's tone was a little hesitant. He was not that familiar with the semiconductor industry. If it weren't for making money, he would not take up this job.

"That's not necessarily true. It might be 10 years, it might be five years, or it might only take one year."

"In short, this choice is not safe. If we can't get more preferential conditions, it is really difficult for me to consider choosing Qualcomm."

At this point, Bu Kai's intention was also exposed.

To put it bluntly, it's just bargaining.

Liu Hai finally breathed a sigh of relief. As long as the other party is willing to counteroffer, there is still a chance.

So, he opened his mouth and said:

"Within my personal authority, I can tell you that the ceiling for this position is 20,000."

"If you go further up, there won't be much possibility - of course, I can also say some good words for you and try my best to do so."

"Twenty thousand is still not enough."

Liu Hai frowned and continued:

"If you perform outstandingly in subsequent technical aspects, you can also apply to join the equity incentive plan, which is not a small number."

"It's still not enough."

".Signing bonus, this is the last condition I can apply for."

"At least, you have to go see me, and I will do my best to help you push it."

Bu Kai's firm expression finally began to loosen, while the bangs on the opposite side were so nervous that they were about to collapse.

This is really all he can throw out.

If such conditions still can't impress the other party, then you really have no other choice.

For more than a month, I called every day to inquire about my intentions, inquire about my concerns, and worked hard to learn and absorb knowledge about semiconductors, especially Bu Kai's hobbies.

All he did was to close the relationship with the other party and increase the chance of his invitation being successful by a few percentage points.

He thinks that he has done everything he can, and even the top headhunter may not be able to do it better than him.

This time, it should be successful, right?

Liu Hai looked at the other party expectantly, but just when Bu Kai was about to speak, the cell phone he put aside suddenly rang.

Bu Kai answered the phone, and a man's voice came from the other end.

"Hello?"

"Yes, I am Bu Kai."

"SMIC strategy team? Nanniwan project? I have no problem!"

"Yes, completely acceptable!"

"Then let's meet and chat! Thank you!"

After a few short words, Bu Kai hung up the phone.

Then, he looked up at Liu Hai apologetically and said:

"Brother Liu, I'm sorry, I won't consider this opportunity."

Liu Hai nodded numbly. From the moment the call was connected, he knew that he had no chance.

Don't get it easily when others only need a phone call to get something that you have worked hard for.

Such a sense of disparity caused his mood to hit rock bottom.

Seemingly noticing Liu Hai's expression, Bu Kai hesitated for a moment and continued:

"Brother Liu, I think there's something wrong with your job."

"Of course some people are willing to join foreign companies, but there are really not many people who are serious about doing scientific research."

"You also know that in terms of scientific research strength, we are still not as good as foreign companies, but if we look at the potential, I am afraid no one can compete with us."

"The facts of the past two years are enough to illustrate the problem. If you continue to fight like this, there will be no results."

"I have an idea, do you want to listen?"

"Then just listen."

Liu Hai sighed and replied.

"We need talents now. Look, you can introduce people to foreign companies, why can't you bring people from outside to us?"

Bangs was stunned.

At this moment, he felt like he was enlightened.

Yes, why do we have to go against the market and the general environment?

Why can't we think differently?

Indeed, talent introduction is also a good route

He immediately made a decision in his mind.

However, at this moment, he could never imagine that long in the future, his decision would make him the most famous "human trafficker" in the world.
