On March 2, Lin Qi arrived in San Francisco, USA, from Japan.

When Boeing landed, the United States was still in the middle of a hazy night, but the airport was busy.

This was the time of the United States, and compared to the 70s, although the middle class had shrunk in size, it was a golden age for capital. The rich and large companies at the head may earn more profits. On the one hand, the financial innovation in the United States and the popularization and promotion of credit cards have stimulated the domestic consumer market in the United States.

In addition, the Reagan administration in the 80s implemented neoliberal policies, which were essentially to increase the U.S. government's fiscal deficit and cut taxes on the wealthy. The wool of the mattress middle class and some easily bullied allies overseas. At the same time, more countries are fooled into buying U.S. bonds and financial assets, and the risk is shared by allies and more countries for the United States.

Of course, although in the fields of finance, manufacturing, etc., the United States has been overdrawing the future. However, from the perspective of emerging industries such as computers and the Internet, at present, the United States is still ahead of the world, and most of the standards are formulated by the United States, and for a long time, the United States is still the most important consumer market.

And this is also the reason why Lin Qi is optimistic about the American market, the United States, unlike other Western countries, is also plundering war resources, but because of the geographical location, the United States occupies an extremely advantageous position.

In both world wars, the United States itself was not hit hard, and limited by the technology of the time, it was not a feasible plan to cross the ocean.

As for the so-called sneak attack on Pearl Harbor, it can be said that it is not worth mentioning at all compared to other countries.

The United States followed the opportunity of the war, resold arms, and made a lot of war windfalls, and later imported a large number of talents, so that the technology accumulated from the war was used by the United States.

Many high-tech industries and technology industries were developed first in the United States and then began to develop all over the world.

In this era, investing in the U.S. market is easy to deploy first-hand scientific and technological innovation technology, while other countries may have accepted the second-hand and third-hand technology of the United States.

In later generations, there was a saying that the new technology created by Europe and the United States was improved and carried forward by the Japanese, and the Koreans further expanded their production capacity. In the end, the Chinese made it into a cabbage price, and all the way to the death of the industry, leaving only China alone.

"Mr. Lin, you have finally come to the United States, and if you don't come, I will go to look for you. ”

The people who came to pick up the plane this time were in addition to the executives of the US branch of the new venture group. There is also a second venture, and Jobs, who has a slight capital connection with the new entrepreneurship department.

Jobs was in good spirits, with excitement on his face, and hugged Lin Qi enthusiastically, and gave a hug by the way.

"How's it going?"

Lin Qi smiled, and the current Jobs can be said to have been taken by Lin Qi to a different route from history. Historically, after Jobs left Apple, he made anime movies and operating system companies. Tossed in the mid-90s, it returned to Apple. And, began a series of reforms, for example, continue to develop cooler products, in the era of mobile Internet, Apple can be said to be the mentor of many companies. Many companies, on the surface, don't want to, but in fact, even Apple's design, which is recognized as the worst, is copied by a bunch of people.

And now, Steve Jobs founded the new Apple company, mainly to make televisions, and to promote the concept of high-definition Internet TV, which is currently booming in the American market. Not only ordinary consumers, but also major TV media giants have to start introducing NTV, or introducing Jobs' NTV set-top boxes. In the field of television networks, Jobs is already disrupting the American market.

"Very good, Mr. Lin, I recently learned about Chinese kung fu tea, Mr. Lin must appreciate it. ”

Jobs tried his best to choose words and sentences according to Chinese habits, and after hearing that Lin Qi was coming, he went to learn the tea ceremony in his busy schedule.

"It's nature. ”

Lin Qi smiled and agreed, Jobs's special car was a lengthened Lincoln, the interior of the car was very comfortable, and the temperature was just right.

Lin Qi and Xiao Xiao were both a little jet lag, their heads hurt slightly, and after a short greeting with Jobs, they closed their eyes and rested for a while.

"Lei Deng, Mr. Lin came here this time to inspect the American market, and I am afraid that it will set off another storm. ”

Jobs was excited, chatting quietly with the driver.

……

After resting for a long day, Lin Qi felt a little better, but he was so sleepy that he couldn't get up from bed.

Lin Qi didn't bother him, and went out into the living room, Jobs' new Apple. This company is an asset-light company, and the production center is not in the United States, where labor costs are expensive and inefficient, but in China.

It's not that Chinese workers are now more efficient than American workers. Rather, the cost of hiring an American worker, which can currently employ dozens of people in China. Moreover, American workers are more interested in unions than they are now, and less enthusiastic about working for their bosses. It can be said that without the destructive power of trade unions, the United States would not have frantically transferred manufacturing to the world, even if labor costs are more expensive.

"How's the development of the new Apple recently?" Lin Qi sat on the sofa and watched Jobs make kung fu tea a little clumsily.

Jobs showed a little smug on his face and said: "Mr. Lin's words in Hong Kong were really insightful, and I felt that a new world had been opened. Giving up the fiercely competitive computer market and entering the field of smart TV, it can only be said that it is invincible in the United States! And now the new Apple's NTV is basically similar to a platform like Pangu, hardware profits are not the key, and content such as film and television, games, etc., is the gold mine that continuously generates revenue!

Lin Qi nodded, admitting that Jobs was indeed a genius.

The concept of Internet TV and smart TV, although he proposed it. But the new venture electronics group,Konka,At present,Although there is an Internet TV foundation,But the high-end TV equipped with PanguTVIntellar operating system,The sales results are very average。

At present,Konka still sells most of traditional TVs,Although,Some smart chips are added to the internal structure,You can use remote control and handle to play some games with low configuration。

However, compared with the new Apple's NTV, there is still a huge gap.

And the current new AppleNTV,Although the hardware,Most of them use the scheme of the new venture electronics,But,UnfortunatelyNTV's operating system,It has not been used PanguTV operating system。 INSTEAD, THE EXPERIENCE IS CLOSE TO PANGU TV,BUT IT'S AN INDEPENDENTLY DEVELOPED NEXTTV OPERATING SYSTEM。

This has also led to the fact that Xinai Industrial Group, a subsidiary of Xinchuang Electronics Group, can only make hard-earned money although it provides important businesses such as screens, CPUs, circuit boards and assembly. The real windfall profits, such as the exclusive benefits of software and content distribution on the platform, are entirely eaten by the new Apple itself.
