Seeing that the huge amount of property that is about to shrink sharply, or even go down the drain, may become a gold mountain in the future, Li Jiaming can be said to be in a good mood. 【鳳\/凰\/Update fast without pop-ups, please search for f/h/xiao/shuo/c/o/m】

Of course, there is also a reason why Shui Tsai is here, and this kid has relied on his excellent resume to sneak into the University of San Francisco. Li Jiaming, who never treated his brother badly, was also very happy, bought a three-story villa in a wealthy area on the outskirts of the city and gave him a second-hand old Dodge car for him to travel. After receiving this entrance gift, the water boy who likes to show off turned around and showed off in the classmates and BBS, and praised his boss as a god.

As a result, a few people from the garden next door slipped in and added a sentence at the back of the post, 'Daxia Wencheng Wude, Ze is born by the common people, thousands of years, and dominates the rivers and lakes!', and then was immediately followed by countless people, and even shouted 'Yan Yuan is crazy, with vast magical powers, dominates the rivers and lakes, and lives and Tianqi'.

What the is this called?

The funny Li Jiaming glanced at the ridicule and slander on the Internet, discussed with Gui Ming on the phone about the establishment of a venture fund, and then turned his head and called Wharton into the office.

"Andre, if I don't try to take a controlling stake in Qualcomm, will the law prohibit it?"

"This is normal investment behavior, and we can also send directors, but it is better not to be the largest shareholder. We can do this by setting up several investment funds and holding each other's shares separately. ”

This is the standard pants off fart, but in the United States, you have to do it, otherwise you have to alarm the FBI to do the routine.

"Jerry is going back to Taiwan next month to visit relatives, and you ask him to help you introduce the senior management of Lianke to see if they are interested in cooperating. Well, if they have funding issues, I can help appropriately. ”

Using legal counsel as an assistant makes Wharton like a sweet eater, "yes/sir".

Will it be successful?

God knows!

Even Li Jiaming, who dared to gamble on everything, didn't know that if he messed things up so much, he knew if Qualcomm could become the overlord of smartphone chips in the future. If Owen is a fake stroke, Li Jiaming is still a little sure; But people have really had a stroke, and they are already facing difficulties, and only God knows about it.

Anyway, Qualcomm needs cash flow, and if it has cash in its hands and no technical strength, it will bring in another Chinese-funded chip manufacturer. Owen can play the game of the Three Kingdoms, Li Jiaming can also play four* chess, and can even dance on three eggs.

But Wharton walked to the door of the office, and as soon as he put his hand on the door lock, he suddenly turned back and said, "Boss, I know that your career is going well, and you became a billionaire at a very young age. I want to ask you, do you know what hundreds of millions of dollars of wealth means in the eyes of the middle class like us? ”

As long as he doesn't talk about things he doesn't understand, Li Jiaming is much better than these foreigners, looked at the young man, and asked, "Andre, do you know why I chose you to be a private lawyer in the first place?" ”

“hy?”

"Because of Larry's recommendation, Larry and I are the same kind of people, both people who want to change the world. I believe in his vision, so I singled you out of so many lawyers in your law firm to be my personal lawyer. It turns out that he has a really good eye, and you can be trusted. ”

After a few meaty words, they fell on Wharton's ears, and there was a kind of emotion of gratitude. This kind of behavior of the superior to buy people's hearts has become instinct if he does too much, and in fact, it has become a kind of magnanimity, otherwise it cannot explain why there is still a dead man at the moment when materialism is rampant.

"Andre, do you know that the U.S. government is willing to spend millions of dollars, decades, to recover the bones of a soldier who died in war decades ago?"

“thank\/you,boss!”

"Go ahead, and do your best to convince the Taiwanese that they will be our allies in the new world."

“yes\/boss”.

When the young lawyer left, Li Jiaming became relaxed, unless there was any other investor who dared to gamble like himself, Qualcomm was left with only himself as a potential ally. Money is not a problem, the big deal is to mortgage the shares of HH Company, plus 500 million in cash, which is enough to make Qualcomm breathe a sigh of relief.

In fact, Qualcomm's strategy is right, opportunities cannot wait, can only be created and fought for. Rather than letting those telecom operators snake and rat at both ends, it is better to take the initiative to enter the field of operation, but their former CEOs are too good to be happy, perhaps this is a common problem of foreigners. If you want to replace Li Jiaming to do it, you will first be careful with those telecom bigwigs, and describe the operating company as an experimental platform. After it is done, it is necessary to sow discord and open a gap from within them, rather than blindly attacking.

Now there is no way, the grass has been startled, and there is only one way left to attack. That would require ammunition, strategy, and allies, and the fact that he inadvertently caused their stock prices to plummet, and now it is even more difficult to get into the sky.

This is not a kind of schadenfreude, but a worry, if the cooperation is successful, everyone is in the same boat. After dealing with the matter at hand, Li Jiaming went to the marketing department and called two young people to go to the telecom operator who provided services to the company to have a look.

There are 17 telecom operators in Silicon Valley, and in addition to a few giants, the closest to the company is GET (United Telephone Company). Regardless of the fact that it mainly provides telecommunications services to rural areas, its business accounts for only 8% of all telephones in the United States, ranking among the top five in the United States, and its annual turnover exceeds $8 billion.

HH Company is a major customer of this business hall, and the monthly telecommunications business volume exceeds 100,000 US dollars, and Li Jiaming and the three of them are of course warmly received. The manager of the business hall put down all his official duties and specially accompanied Li Jiaming to visit and introduce their services.

The services and the like are all similar, and Li Jiaming is most interested in the mobile phone counter in the business hall. Good guys, almost all major mobile phone brands can be found here, and mortgage purchase services are also available. This is also one of the characteristics of the United States, mobile phone sales channels, after-sales, and maintenance are almost all telecommunications operators, and it is difficult to find mobile phone stores on the market.

The curious Li Jiaming picked up a black Motoro mobile phone, and the manager hurriedly introduced: "Ming, this is Motoro's i1000Plus, which integrates digital communication, two-way radio, digital pager, Internet browser and fax and other functions, and the purchase price reached 310 US dollars, and we only sold it for 320 US dollars." ”

The appearance of this plastic shell is really ugly, and Li Jiaming, who was smiling, suddenly sighed at Jobs's shrewdness, and the young man next to him spoke.

"Ming, don't listen to Rissen, their package is $35/month, plus a $35 first-time activation fee. Even if you give away a mobile phone for nothing, you can earn it in two years, Scott, how much can you earn? ”

The Americans are really bad at math, and another young man who came with him hurriedly pressed the calculator and muttered something in his mouth: "At least a two-year contract must be signed, that is, 24 months,"

"875 minus 310 equals 565, and after deducting 31.5% of taxes, you made about $390. God, how did you get out of college? ”

The red-haired Scott pressed the calculator for a while and exclaimed, "Wow, you're amazing!" boss, it's really profitable to be a telecom operator. ”

"Stupid, people don't want infrastructure investment, labor costs, and bank interest?"

"How much is that?"

Li Jiaming was not interested in being a math teacher, so he turned his head and asked the manager: "Ruisen, if I buy a phone at one time, is there a discount in terms of phone bills?" ”

Ruisen smiled strangely, pulled Li Jiaming to the side, and whispered, "Ming, didn't you find a problem?" You Chinese are good at math, we Americans are bad at math and are used to paying in installments. ”

"So, you don't have a deal for that, do you?"

"Yes, but it doesn't save much compared to getting a free phone."

, the one who bought is not the one who sells! This is the same as those domestic telecom operators, but it is called 'pre-deposited phone bills' under a different name.
