Chapter 396: The wolf cub who came to stir up the situation

Since Bell invented the telephone in 1876, it has experienced more than a century of development, and telephone communication services have entered thousands of households.

In 1972, when Martin Cooper, the father of mobile phones, received a plan from Motorola to develop a mobile phone, he was surprised to respond: "What is a mobile phone?"

In 1983, the first mobile phone, the DynaTAC-8000X, was born, and in 1984, the first Big Brother mobile phone was launched.

No one could have imagined that in just ten years, more than 70 million copies of this thing would be sold.

Telephone technology and business have changed dramatically, and the location of communication has shifted from a fixed mode to a mobile mode.

The rapid development of mobile communication has made the pace of modern life faster and faster, and the upgrading of mobile communication products and the market competition have become more and more intense.

This is a large market with a scale of tens of billions of dollars, and the market size of the mobile phone field will reach hundreds of billions of dollars in the future.

Add a series of games, software, accessories and other peripherals, and the market size can reach trillions of dollars.

The sooner the smartphone comes out, the sooner the website of the hope technology company can play a role a day earlier.

Han Xuan has capital and talents, and based on the above set of data alone, he will definitely not miss it.

The old man has completed the early accumulation, and what Han Xuan needs to do now is to expand the scale of the family business, achieve diversified development, and thus grow into a towering tree.

It is no exaggeration to say.

The liquid money that his grandfather had in the bank was losing hundreds of thousands of dollars a day due to the depreciation.

Keeping money in the bank can make money, but it's just a scam to deceive the people, and investing it is the king.

And the current phone call really made Han Xuan suffer enough to make him call for so long. His hands were already sore, and he desperately needed a small phone.

From 1984 to the present in 1994, Motorola has been very prosperous, relying on the huge technology patents in its hands to quickly seize the market.

It accounts for 60% of global mobile phone sales, and more than nine million units were shipped last year alone. Together with other products, the revenue reached $22 billion, and the profit was close to $2 billion!

At present, Siemens in Germany, Nokia in Finland, IBM in the United States and other companies have intervened in the mobile phone industry, and many emerging mobile phone brands have just entered the market.

Or buy patent rights from large companies, OEM production, or do everything possible to bypass Motorola's technical barriers.

Among them, Nokia also has a large number of patented technologies due to its early development, and has been able to develop rapidly.

Due to the current battery capacity limitations, the need for large antennas for analog modulation technology, and the development of integrated circuits, etc.

These phones have a boxy appearance. It can only be moved, not portable.

Han Xuan also wanted to get involved in this profiteering industry, and replied to Christopher: "That's right, the detailed situation will be arranged when I come back from the UK."

You ask those hardware engineers to figure out the manufacturing process, list all the technologies they need, and those that have been registered, and I will arrange for someone to buy them. ”

Christopher shares are not yet in their hands. Think about the problem from a different angle.

After coming to the conclusion that he could make money in this business, he said decisively: "The hardware engineering department is there." Some were poached from Motorola.

I'll have a meeting with them later, and I'll select an experienced person to lead the hardware engineering department for development, and it's almost time to go to work, and now I'm going to take the employees for a run. ”

"Run?" Han Xuan asked curiously.

"Yes, running, they are so weak that they can climb two flights of stairs and gasp. I've only been working overtime for a few days, and I'm tired of a lot.

Physical fitness is a big problem, so I decided to take them for a kilometre jog before going to work, which would also improve their productivity and save them from dozing off all day. ”

"Mr. Christopher, don't bother. As long as the traffic is closed in front of the company, they walk to the textile mill, more than a kilometer. ”

"Haha! This is to take care of the people who live in the staff dormitory, and besides, we are no longer in the old factory, the new building was just built last week, and we have been moving in recently.

Harris is a good learner, he is quite talented in this area, and one more thing I want to ask you, who is that girl named Isabelle?

She has been to the company several times in the past few days, followed by four Portuguese-speaking bodyguards. ”

Han Xuan was stunned when he heard this.

I had heard Harris say that Isabeli's school file had the address of Vale in Brazil.

The people who live in it may be the management or ordinary employees, and after a period of contact, I feel that Isabeli's family conditions are not bad.

She didn't say what it was, and she didn't ask.

Now it certainly doesn't look bad.

As soon as I gossiped, I wanted to ask her, but this involved personal privacy issues, so I thought about it or forget it.

said: "My classmate, don't worry about her, then that's it, hang up first." ”

"Well, goodbye......"

Han Xuan turned his head and asked Gabriel, "The girl who lived with me at Brown University, you know, Isabelle, she has bodyguards with her?"

Gabriel was talking to Gonzalez, and judging by the expression on his face, it must be the topic of the Eighteen Forbidden.

Hearing the boy's inquiry, he was stunned and said, "No, there are other bodyguards in the school, but we are the only ones guarding the vicinity of Principal Gregory's villa. ”

These top Ivy League schools are Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, and the world's richest people sharpen their heads and stuff their children into them.

In their view, ordinary universities are just technical schools for training workers, and they will never get ahead.

Only the atmosphere of these top schools can cultivate true leadership talents.

It is not uncommon for some of the wealthy to arrange bodyguards to protect their children, and Han Xuan also met the granddaughter of Warren Buffett at school.

The rich say that it is right to let children grow up freely, but these people have not relaxed on the issue of safety.

Thinking that the next time I saw Isabeli, I had to ask, and suddenly realized that this clever ghost might be rubbing his bodyguard, and this idea lingered after it was born.

Lehe shook his head.

Take off your jacket and wear only your sweater, and as you get closer to Seattle, the temperature gradually rises above freezing.

The sun shines warmer in a helicopter, and compared to Montana, one is heaven and the other is hell.

At half past nine in the morning, the Rainier Snow Mountain appeared in their field of vision.

There are more towns on the ground, and the Space Needle in the distance in the city of Seattle is also exposed among the mountains on the horizon.

Big Microsoft signs can be seen everywhere, and across the highway you can see a dark green truck, which is Starbucks.

The acquisition of a listed company is cumbersome, and it takes time to audit accounts, distribute shares, adjust management, etc.

Now Starbucks is in a state of suspension on the NASDAQ market, the stock is temporarily closed from circulation, and the former store is still open.

This is great news for shareholders who own Starbucks stock, and they already know that Snow Mountain Investment Company has made a move!

Is Han Xuan a genius?

Judging by the growth trajectory published in the New York Times, he is indeed a genius.

There are rumors through the grapevine that he interfered in the family business very early, and the authenticity is unknown for the time being.

But just because there are two big Buddhas standing behind him, he can clearly know that this business cannot be lost.

What's more, the Wall Street Journal recently published a photo: SOS 24-hour convenience store hanging a Starbucks signboard at the door.

All coffee producers in the U.S. feel like they've been shot in the chest, crying out for the wolf cubs who are stirring up the trouble.

Who can stand such a plug-in (to be continued.) )
