‘……

Tonight, I ask you to join me in praying for those who have been hurt in this incident, for those who have been hurt, for those who have been hurt, for those whose sense of security has been broken. I prayed that they would be appeased by God, as the Bible has been written for generations, "Though I walk in the valley of the shadow of death, I fear not evil, for you are with me." ”

……’

The president's speech was still in my ears, and there was a candlelight at the door of HH Company to mourn the deceased, and the entire Silicon Valley and the United States became a sea of candlelight.

"Americans are so united!"

"That's the good thing about an elected government, no matter how much people scold the government and the president, but it's elected by their votes, and they will take the regime as their own. ”

Li Jiaming never participated in this kind of discussion among compatriots, nor did he stop it, but he would draw a red line for everyone. Just like in the flood relief three years ago, seven reporters with a strong sense of justice did not listen to the greetings, he gave them gifts out of Sohu, and when the company went public, he gave them shares according to the average treatment of old employees.

The dead are gone, and the living are like this, but the situation is developing as Li Jiaming expected.

In the aftermath of the incident, U.S. investors began to panic-sell stocks, causing the stock market to plummet. During the week, the Dow Jones, Nasdaq and S&P fell 14.3%, 16.1% and 11.6%, respectively, and the stock market shrank by more than $1.4 trillion.

Under the nest, Ann has finished eggs?

Sohu's share price also plummeted, from $62.58 to $4.162 billion, and Mr. Lee's stock shrank by nearly one-third in a week, forcing him to pledge his shares in HH to banks. Not only did the value of the stock shrink, but HH's business also suffered a heavy setback, and the sales of the iPod2 suddenly plummeted, from more than 30,000 units sold in one day to about 10,000.

The sales of the iPod 2 took a heavy hit, and the market value of Hanhua also took a heavy hit, and the shares he pledged to the bank immediately shrank, and he had to mortgage more shares. The consequences of these disasters to the pond fish are far more serious than Li Jiaming imagined, which is the risk that he will easily press all the chips.

If it is replaced by someone else, the real estate has swelled into a large commercial real estate company with assets of hundreds of billions, and Li Jiaming, as the second largest shareholder, can completely mortgage its shares and recover the original loan. But he still didn't do that, and even Kyle's proposal to mortgage the Sohu property was rejected by him.

When he goes out, he reports good news but not bad news, and when he is not exhausted, how can Li Jiaming let his family follow him in fear?

But Li Jiaming, who was troubled, still had to pretend, pretending to be confident in everything, and pretending to be light-hearted. At this moment of panic, the first thing for a private company like HH to settle down is people's hearts.

The same is true for Yahoo, the stock market crash has seriously affected Yang's plans, but fortunately, the cash he cashed out last year has not been invested much, otherwise the company will be in big trouble. Therefore, when Li Jiaming tentatively offered a financing invitation, both Yang Zhiyuan and David politely declined.

"Jiaming, the current FT is just like Yahoo at the beginning, it is the child of me and David, can you understand?"

"I understand, if I don't understand the impact of this time, it will have to last for a few years. Brother Zhiyuan, are you really going to press it all?"

Yang Zhiyuan, who is not as good as Li Jiaming is good at hiding his emotions, smiled bitterly, 200 million US dollars in cash has been invested, and he has made the whole United States know about it, and even Taiwan is a household name, so can he still escape?

"How can there be an arrow back when you open a bow?"

"Sort of, to be precise, it should be difficult to ride a tiger."

This mentality is not good, since you have to gamble, you have to be single, Li Jiaming joked: "You don't understand this, tragic heroes are far more touching than successful people!"

"It's better to say than to sing, how many people still remember Wang An?"

Yes, it's only been eleven years, except for industry insiders, who still remembers the Chinese legend who beat IBM all over the ground and flattered Bill Gates?

"Hey, I ran into Steve Jobs the other day, do you know what he thinks of you?"

Li Jiaming, who was in pain in his head, perked up and said curiously: "You didn't scold the iPod for, right?"

"How is this possible, our iPod is far superior to them, isn't scolding us just scolding himself? He said, you will definitely surpass Wang An. ”

"Hahaha", Li Jiaming, who was praised by others, was so proud that he couldn't help laughing.

Wang An, if it weren't for the old man's reluctance to hand over the company to professional managers, if he wasn't too conceited, if his son could complete the company's second strategic turn, there might not be Apple in this world, let alone Microsoft's ....... Now Cisco's CEO, John Chambers, has brought Cisco from a market value of $600 million to $180 billion, and he was only a regional head at Wang An Computer.

can be proud and proud, bidding farewell to Yang Zhiyuan, Li Jiaming still has to worry about funds. No one knows how serious the impact of 911 will be and how long it will last. Although the iPod2's nine-month hot sales have brought the company nearly a billion dollars in cash flow, it has consumed more than 500 million. Now that the iPod2 is starting to be unsalable, can it still support the company, and can the project of the research institute be successfully completed?

Even worse is the news from Capitol Hill that the supplementary provisions on intellectual property rights have been drafted and that the time for individuals to distribute free music on the Internet is coming to an end. This means that HH will officially establish its position as a leader in digital music players and digital music sales, and it will be followed by lawsuits from other manufacturers and music websites. The United States is not as much as China, there are more laws, there are more lawyers than dogs, and there are existing anti-monopoly laws, so they will not be demonstrated? Even if HH can force those manufacturers to give in and consume those small music websites, the company will face a huge fine of unknown amounts, which is also the price of HH's ascension to the throne, and it is also the path that Microsoft has taken before.

What's more, the research and development of new products is a monster of funds, devouring huge cash flow, but it may not be able to pull out gold. What's more, the research and development of the iPhone is too advanced, so advanced that even the LCD screen can only be developed by its own company, because the Japanese and Koreans do not believe that such a small LCD screen has market value, and people are staring at the application of liquid crystal and plasma on TVs, and they want to fight the battle of liquid crystal and plasma.

When the money is used, you hate less!

Fortunately, people's hearts have stabilized, and the company has finally woken up from the panic, and everyone knows that the sales of iPod2 suddenly halved, not because of product problems, but because of the general environment. As long as everyone persists, there will be a day when the clouds will open and the moon will be bright.

The U.S. market is weak, so increase publicity and sales in Europe and East Asia, with better performance than similar products, a large number of advertising, iPod2 sales finally began to slowly pick up, and finally let Li Jiaming breathe a sigh of relief.

Of course, his thesis did not pass the second round of the E Awards, and was only selected by the school as the outstanding paper of the year, and it is said that he can get a prize of 5,000 US dollars.

However, the effects of the terrorist attacks are still unfolding, and the US government has poured a lot of money into the stock market, and after the reopening of the market on September 17, panic selling is still inevitable, and the major stock indexes continue to fall to their lowest point in three years. The market value of US equities is still plummeting, with the Dow Jones down another 14% and the Nasdaq down 16% in just one week.

In addition to the financial sector, aviation, insurance, and travel have also suffered heavy losses, and the decline of these industries has affected business, and iPod2 sales in the United States continue to decline, all supported by the East Asian and European markets, in order to barely maintain a slow recovery in sales. And in this case, the iPod2 improved launch event, which was originally scheduled to be launched in October, can only be postponed.
