Chapter 169: Only Names and Instruments, No Dummies (II)

Whether you admit it or not, the United States is the center of the world.

Whether you are happy or not, the world's political, economic, cultural, and scientific and technological centers are all in the United States, which is also where the United States has the confidence to be the world's policeman.

When KLE pointed out the technological backwardness of Hanhua Technology in a euphemistic way, Li Jiaming immediately understood that this was just a matter of facts, and had nothing to do with national feelings.

Taking a step back, even if Wang Zhidong's skills are fine, the level of the programmers under his command is definitely not as high as that of the United States. Not to mention those whites, Indians, and even the best talents among the Chinese have come to Silicon Valley, how can Wang Zhidong alone make the software the best? Kle is indeed very careful, and he has thought of this layer, and he has not even thought about it in this direction, and he has always been very superstitious about Wang Zhidong's ability.

"Where's the hardware?"

"Under the current technical conditions, that's the best solution, and they can do it at a very high level."

Li Jiaming breathed a sigh of relief, if the hardware design scheme is also backward, then the follow-up research and development of iPod2 can only be put in the United States, not to mention that the cost will be very high, and it is not conducive to his own domestic plans.

"Okay, I'll go back and discuss with my seniors, since the technical capabilities here are stronger, let's put software development in the United States. We are a technology company, and technology leadership is the most important thing. ”

"No, no, you didn't understand what I meant."

It's good to put software development in the United States, but the labor cost is too high, and now a better programmer dares to shout an annual salary of 100,000 US dollars, how can it compare with 5000RMB/month in China?

Klee, who pays attention to cost control, persuaded: "Ming, Chinese Americans are the smartest in the world, but they don't master the most cutting-edge technology and trends. I want to set up a research institute in Silicon Valley, let them come here to study regularly, and then return to China to do R&D work. ”

Outsourcing, this old boy is the idea, using the advanced concepts and technologies of the United States, combined with cheap domestic human resources, to minimize the cost of research and development.

Li Jiaming's kindness made KLE very happy, in this kind of substantive private company, the most afraid boss would not listen to different opinions and insist on going his own way.

"Good! is outrcing, we are a high-tech commercial company, in addition to the pursuit of technological advancement, but also consider cost and profit."

"Make a plan, I'll take it back to China to discuss."

Although kle is the CEO of a high-tech company, he only focuses on high-tech, this old boy is from a marketing background, that is, a businessman in Li Jiaming's mouth, and pursues the maximization of profits.

"Also, that's your capital, and you're a mainland country, and the land price and salary level in the capital will be very high in the future, so we have to find a place with perfect infrastructure and lower costs. Believe me, we will be a mega enterprise in the future, and we can't help but think about these factors in advance. ”

Yes, the iPod is just a gadget, which requires more than 300 people to work overtime for more than a year to develop and develop, and the future research and development work will be more arduous and require more human resources. If it grows to a scale of tens of thousands of employees, the rent of office space alone will be frighteningly high, but it is not that the Chinese do not know the psychology of the Chinese people, nor do they understand the national situation.

Li Jiaming thought for a while and vetoed: "No, we exported 40 million US dollars in December last year alone, how much will it be for the whole year?" Have you forgotten how Real Estate worked with you in the first place? ”

Yes, after staying in Beiping for five years, KLE suddenly realized that Hanhua's export volume this year is at least hundreds of millions of dollars, and it will become the government's treasure. China's economy has begun to take off, and it is foreseeable that commercial real estate will appreciate rapidly, and the income from this piece alone will be astronomical.

"Kle, you can do it."

"Ok, foreign and good menstruation!"

"Monks from outside are good at chanting! It just so happens that you have to coordinate the cooperation between the two sides, straighten out the relationship between the two sides, and arrange the dividends. ”

Dividends? Now is the time for the company to develop, what is the red?

"You don't understand, China is not as good as the United States, our legal system and integrity system are not perfect, we don't let everyone see the real benefits, D is just a small plan, I have a greater plan, we will need a large number of the best talents!"

“boss?”

Now that the iPod has succeeded, Li Jiaming wants to make smartphones, and he also has funds to support research and development. That thing is the most profitable product in the future, and as long as it preempts Apple and makes a smartphone with a quality no less than IE, it will leave a strong mark on China's economic history.

"Kle, do you remember when IBM came out with a mobile phone that integrated the functions of the phone with a PDA handheld computer?"

This is a bit long ago, it can be said that the kle of IBM's old courtier recalled for a while, and said uncertainly: "Simonicator? It seems to be released in '92 or '93, and the sales are very low, and it is a failed product. ”

"No, that's not a failed product, that's a milestone product, the essence of the Internet is sharing and connectivity, and Simonicator has realized the connection with the Internet, but it is subject to the technical level at that time, so it has not been recognized by consumers."

"But with a laptop + wireless network card, you can also complete the connection to the Internet? Ming, that's not the mainstream of the future. ”

"No, that's the future!"

It was too risky, and the dissenting Klee hurriedly pulled out his Motorola phone and clumsily pressed the top buttons at the same time with ten fingers to prove him right.

"Ming, whether it is for work and entertainment, or to obtain information, the screen and panel of the mobile phone are too small, and it is difficult to achieve human-computer interaction. You see, we use a PC keyboard, it is easy to achieve human-computer communication, but how to achieve it with a mobile phone? Twenty-six letters, how much area do they have? And how much area is given to the screen? ”

The reason why a genius is a genius is because he can jump out of habitual thinking, and people who can't jump out of habitual thinking can only be called talents.

Li Jiaming picked up a piece of white paper with a smile, added 26 letters and number keys, drew them in a mobile phone-sized frame, and then put the white paper on the back side of the mobile phone, holding it with both hands and using two thumbs to quickly demonstrate.

"Kle, using the touch screen as the entire panel of the phone is just a matter of habit. If you want to achieve fast human-machine interaction, isn't that enough? ”

"Is that okay?"

Klee took the paper and his phone and tried it, still feeling uncomfortable, but he knew it was just a matter of habit.

"Yes, the laptop is too clumsy, and the phone is lightweight, and you can use the mobile network directly. Of course, the premise is that mobile network technology needs to be developed to a level that can be equal to or similar to that of fixed networks; Or, the i-Fi technology is fully mature. ”

This thing is not comparable to an iPod, the R&D expenses will be astronomical, and the sales prospects are uncertain, the calm Kle thought about it for a long time, and then agreed: "OK, we can try it, but the main force of early R&D must be Wang He Ren and them, with the current salary level in Silicon Valley, it is difficult for our company to afford it." ”

In fact, it doesn't matter whether KLE answers or not, Hanhua Electronics and HH are absolutely controlled by themselves, and no matter whether everyone agrees or disagrees, they can only dance with their own baton. Whether he agrees or not, it is related to subjective initiative, as long as he agrees, he will fully cooperate.

"You let the people on the website help collect the latest technical information, this is a great plan, if the development is successful, we will control the future mobile network terminal system, all kinds of information platforms, and even e-commerce and so on!"

It seemed that yes, Klee thought for a while, and suddenly he was ecstatic, and said excitedly: "Okay, you have to authorize me first." I want to go to IBM to buy patents, and they can't use Simonicator patents anymore, but for us, we can avoid a lot of detours, and we can also set patent traps for possible latecomers. ”

"Okay, you have full authority to deal with it."

Thousands of troops are easy to get, and it's hard to find, and this old boy is the 'one general' that is hard to find and ask for! As long as the company's dominance and control are clear, you have to let him do it. Although Li Jiaming, who is accustomed to being the boss, attaches great importance to power, he does not dare to delegate power or is reluctant to delegate power.

How can you be a person? If you want to succeed, you have to rely on the strength of the team, not the individual alone. How to say that, no matter how strong an individual is, he is a sheep, and a strong team is a wolf!
