All men are created equal, and their Creator has endowed them with a number of inalienable rights, including the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. - Declaration of Independence

Since 1776, generations of Americans have been convinced that a better life can be achieved through hard work and perseverance, that people must prosper through their own hard work, courage, creativity, and determination, rather than relying on the assistance of a particular social class and others.

This is the American Dream, which inspires countless young people around the world who have dreams, whether they have immigrated or studied or smuggled away, who have left their homeland and gone through a lot of hardships just to come to this land to create their own value.

Li Jiaming once joked that the American Dream is the thirst and pursuit of wealth, and the crazy pursuit of money is the eternal theme of the 'American Dream'. But Li Jiaming also has to admit that this kind of completely secularized and monetized dream is far cleaner than those illusory and demagogic political religions. At least in this land, everyone has equal opportunities, and everyone can succeed on the basis of individual ability, not family ties.

The launch of the iPod2 was far more successful than the iPod1, not only because it was a truly epoch-making product that fully realized human-machine communication, but also because its creator, Li Jiaming, told an inspirational story that could satisfy the vanity of Americans. Americans worship heroes, and the aura of grassroots and prestigious schools has made Li Jiaming a hero of self-struggle and success, which is in line with the American dream they believe in.

Good advertising can make a poor product die quickly, D2 is an excellent product, humanized design, art-like appearance, excellent performance, plus the halo of heroes, overwhelming advertising, once again perfectly replicated the success of iPod1, and even surpassed.

With a price of $216 and 422,500 units sold in North America and 985,100 units worldwide in two days, there was a long queue in front of Best Sales' counter, a sales miracle that made its competitors despair and made HH ecstatic. Even Yang Zhiyuan, a major shareholder who was worried about the negotiations, went around to HH to congratulate everyone.

"Jiaming, can you pass 15 million?"

Li Jiaming, who had just been interviewed by the Los Angeles Times, smiled like a chimpanzee, and coaxed: "15 million can't be guaranteed, 18 million is definitely no problem." This time it is developed, and the net profit is at least more than one billion!

Brother Zhiyuan, Lao Tzu didn't lie to you, did he? Your $600 million investment is worth it, it's just a chance to make a fortune for nothing!"

Since the acquisition of QC6522, the cost of a single machine has plummeted, and profits have risen sharply. In addition, there is an export tax rebate policy in China, and HH company has been officially classified under Hanhua, and all the taxes that can be avoided have been avoided, and the profit margin of iPod2 has increased to 61.58%, which is simply a miracle of modern industry.

People must have competition and contrast, Zhang Zhaoyang was stimulated by a demon like Li Jiaming, and Sohu fought with Yahoo (Huaguo), and Yang Zhiyuan also became enterprising under the stimulation of his monster friends. Now that HH is thriving, he is more confident that he can run the new company well, even if he can't buy QC6522 from Kyle.

But when he told Li Jiaming his thoughts, it caused the other party to shake his head.

"It doesn't work, we used to ask Yahoo to invest, that was to do our own research institute and invest in Qualcomm. Now that Qualcomm's shares have been cashed out, and the company's performance is so good, how can Kyle let Yahoo buy shares so easily?"

"We're not buying from a company, we're just buying from you personally, as long as you agree, what's not going to work?"

said so, but the meaning revealed in the words made Li Jiaming very unhappy. It's not that everyone has no money, this guy cashed out nearly 3 billion at the beginning of the year, and all of them were lying on his stomach in the bank, why should he let himself make concessions?

But if he didn't agree to this, Li Jiaming was really afraid that the other party would shrink back. Successful people are paranoid, and Lee Ka Ming is no exception, leaving a historical mark on the future communication standards of the Chinese, which is very tempting for him to use money as a tool rather than wealth.

Only delay, when Owen's basic patents are taken over, and the new company is on the right track, it is estimated that this guy will be difficult to ride a tiger. has been friends with Yang Zhiyuan for almost two years, Li Jiaming knows that this guy has a good face, and if he really forces it, he will probably grit his teeth and go down.

"Brother Zhiyuan, I have to think about this matter, and I have to discuss it with everyone, at least say hello to my family. It's not a little bit of money, it's a multi-billion dollar acquisition, and it's impossible for me to say yes without asking everyone. ”

This guy is a filial son, and he is the twenty-fourth filial brother, such a big matter should indeed be discussed with the family, Yang Zhiyuan agreed: "Okay, anyway, I need time to campaign, is there a letter after the year?"

"I'll fight for it, but don't expect it to be worth 12 billion, now iTunes/Store is starting to break even, and it is expected to start sharing negotiations with record labels by April next year. ”

Short-sighted, short-sighted, if the acquisition of HH was strongly promoted, Yahoo would be able to share HH's growth dividends. Now if you want to buy another share, you have to pay a higher price.

The two chatted a few more words, and finalized the matter of Yang Zhiyuan going to discuss the location of the research institute with the Haidian District Government, although he was not pinched by himself, but he had his own major interests, last time Larry played a little trick to anger Tim, so much time has passed, it's time to forgive others.

"No way, it's not a question of getting angry or not, it's a question of competition.

Jiaming, Yahoo started as a search, we missed the strangulation of sogo in China, we can exist as a subsidiary of Yahoo, we can even increase the advertising share, but definitely not let it become a potential threat. ”

Then there is no need to negotiate, so I can only wait for this guy to build a new company, and then find an opportunity to encourage Larry to start preparing for independence. It is true that the two have friendship, but they are not so bad as to sacrifice their own interests and contribute to each other's careers.

When the two were chatting, assistant Nakamura sent the company's reward draft in, and Li Jiaming signed it with a glance. can see his subordinates make a fortune, Li Jiaming is not like other bosses, on the contrary, he is happy to give out a lot of bonuses.

"Boss, many employees in the company want to exchange bonuses for stocks, how do we respond?"

There are few stupid white ghosts, bonuses have to be taxed, and stocks are not taxed and can appreciate. I really want to come to something, I want to force Yang Zhiyuan to engage in mobile phone chips, and I just have such an opportunity to reassure him.

"You can consider that I will reply to you before the tax return date. ”

Nakamura Daiki, this time he also has a bonus of more than 10,000 US dollars, if it can be exchanged for the company's shares, not only can avoid taxes but also appreciate, why not?

Li Jiaming can give technical personnel futures stocks, or arrange futures stocks for his henchmen, but he is not generous enough to give those sales personnel who don't need much technology futures stocks, seeing Nakamura's repeated thanks, he hurriedly said: "Don't be busy being happy first, this is not necessarily, I just promised to consider it." ”

Nakamura, who is also an assistant, came to the meeting, but Yang Zhiyuan was overjoyed. The sale of shares to employees must be a reference, and the acquisition with Yahoo is the best reference, which is a disguised promise to sell a part of the shares to Yahoo.

I think it's good to think so, Li Jiaming, who secretly dug a small hole for his friend, is happy,
