Broadcom had hoped to enter the Qualcomm board of directors, and the attempt to buy Qualcomm had been destroyed. Paul Jacobs, now a member of Qualcomm’s Founding Fathers, continued to propose the privatization of Qualcomm’s intentions. Whether or not Jacobs’ desires could be reached It is clear that the motivation for Jacobs and Broadcom CEO Hock Tan to buy Qualcomm is completely different. Jacobs seems to want to protect his father founded Qualcomm would want to privatize to own Qualcomm, and Chen Fuyang is to have conquered and To meet the financial engineering intent of cutting costs and creating profits, the outside world believes that Broadcom may want to establish a monopoly of radio frequency (RF) technology in the 5G mobile era. In any case, the two parties' acquisition goals are obviously very different. The direct line of blood is not willing to see the high pass again. Injury According to EE Times and other media reports, Paul Jacobs is the son of Qualcomm founder Irwin Jacobs. He served as chief executive of Qualcomm from 2005 to 2014. After leaving office, he still served as executive director of Qualcomm until it was announced on the 17th. China, reiterating that it wanted to use the plan to get Qualcomm off the market, was expelled from the board. Anyway, from Jacobs put forward to buy high The plan to privatize the company shows that he sees Qualcomm as a jewel that must be protected at all costs, whether or not the cost needs to be achieved with the help of overseas companies or competitors. In short, after privatizing Qualcomm In the future, Qualcomm will no longer face potential potential threats such as Broadcom's acquisition. Jacobs wants to buy Qualcomm out of a very personal emotional factor. After all, this is a company founded by his father. It is rumored that Jacobs currently only holds Qualcomm. 0.1% shares, the proportion is obviously very low, and based on this personal emotional factors, Qualcomm’s board has ejected Jacobs from the board of directors in order to avoid its influence on the basis of the founder’s son’s identity and unwillingness to fall into the hands of others’ emotional factors. Shareholders' equity. However, the latest confirmed that on March 23, Qualcomm shareholders meeting will no longer nominate Jacobs as a new board member, meaning that Jacobs will not be able to exert influence through the board of directors. Therefore, how to achieve its goal of protecting Qualcomm will remain to be seen. On the other hand, Chen Fuyang is proud of his acquisition strategy, and his company's post-acquisition style is also known to the outside world. After testing Chen Fuyang's purchase of Qualcomm, it will make good use of Qualcomm's resources, which may lead to the stagnation or sale of Qualcomm 5G technology. This is also the concern of the US government and it is clearly the starting point for Jacobs' desire to protect Qualcomm from 'love' Qualcomm. Completely different. Broadcom buy Qualcomm to establish a 5G mobile radio monopoly may be true. On the other hand, although Broadcom has been outdated in the acquisition of Qualcomm, but the outside world is still highly interested in Broadcom's acquisition motives. Foreign media from a technical point of view, that the most current It is possible that Broadcom could buy Qualcomm and create an invisible monopoly of radio frequency technology in the immediate 5G mobile era. Of course, this will not only be limited to radio frequency technology, but also hopefully will help bring from Broadcom's existing radio technology to Qualcomm's leading edge. Application processors, Modem chips and other fields have formed monopoly positions. As forecasted by Stuart Carlaw, chief researcher of ABI Research, if Broadcom merges with Qualcomm, the merger of new companies is expected to capture 59% of market share in the Wi-Fi area, in Bluetooth. (Bluetooth) Including 46% market share, Positioning chip field can grab 67% market share, In honeycomb chip field, it can win 41% market share Occupy rate. Therefore, even if the Trump administration is blocking the case on the basis of the political rhetoric of worrying national security and 5G competition, then worrying about monopoly ghosts and being evoked should be the biggest concern.
