Late happiness is sweeter, the tortuous process is perfect. There is a famous saying in Hollywood: even the worst rehearsal can mean the best performance.

On July 18, Ziguang group announced that its acquisition of radico with a total value of $907 million was completed. After three quarters of twists and turns from Ziguang's offer to redico on October 25 last year to the completion of the transaction, the merger and acquisition has finally come to an end.

Behind the perfume is sweat that ordinary people can't see. People who pay close attention to the case of Ziguang's acquisition of radico must know the twists and turns and hardships behind it. According to the announcement, Ziguang group completed the acquisition through overseas financing through its overseas subsidiaries. In this tortuous process, Ziguang group must have had closer communication with relevant ministries and commissions of the state; and explained that before the international merger and acquisition, the internationalization of Ziguang group should have been quietly launched: the overseas branches of Ziguang group completed the overseas financing, which showed that their overseas branches obviously had strong asset strength and financing ability, which was the reason why Ziguang group's overseas branches had strong asset strength and financing ability After that, more international mergers and acquisitions have laid a solid foundation.

When we mention redico, we have to mention Pudong branch investment. Different from Ziguang's adherence to radico, Pudong ketou wisely chose to acquire LanChi technology this year. Interestingly, if Ziguang has contributed to the national information security industry through the integration of Spreadtrum and radico in the product terminal, then Pudong Science and technology investment has contributed to the national information security industry through the layout of LanChi Technology (which has signed the contract, and the acquisition has not been completed yet). For the country, for the first time, it has independent and controllable chip level solutions that can be industrialized in both terminal and cloud.

Compared with the impact on the integrated circuit industry, the contribution and influence of Ziguang's integration and LanChi technology's privatization on national information security is more "all in one's mouth": as we all know, in the increasingly urgent consideration of information security, building an independent and controllable information security industry system has become the top priority of the development of information industry. The core of building an independent and controllable information security system is to control key core technologies and enhance the ability of independent innovation. Only by mastering the core technology and combining the international leading technology with the domestic security needs can we truly solve the key problems existing in the field of information security. This may be the deep-seated reason for Ziguang to integrate Spreadtrum and radico.

More impacts of Ziguang's acquisition of Spreadtrum and radico on information security and integrated circuit industry were described in detail in my article "chain reaction causes great changes in the industry --" on the far-reaching impact of Ziguang's acquisition of Spreadtrum and radico on China's integrated circuit industry ". Also, as I analyzed in my article, after Ziguang acquired Spreadtrum and radico, this year's domestic There have been some heavy integration cases, such as the joint acquisition of LanChi technology by Pudong scientific investment and CEC, and the acquisition of xuyao by Duntai. It can be said that Ziguang's great efforts have just begun to have a profound impact on China's IC industry.
