Chapter 519: Friendship (I)
"There is a big gap between us and others...... Qian Tianbai said.
After they arrived in Switzerland with Limer and Jobs, they had just arranged a hotel in front of them, and they went to Tim's research room in the back.
There are many Chinese students in it, they are all assistants, and there are more than 60 of them, and Tim uses the funds funded by Li Mo to invite top experts in the industry from various countries, because it involves the root server, which must also be invited, otherwise even if Tim's talent is learned, he will not be able to keep up.
The group watched and communicated, and this exchange found that the gap with others was too big.
"Professor Qian, don't be discouraged, China is catching up from nothing in this industry, and besides, the topics studied here, even if they are placed internationally, are the top technical topics." Li Mo comforted.
Another expert asked: "Xiao Li, I heard that many ideas came from your inspiration?" ”
Li Mo nodded.
"You're also funding the money?"
Li Mo nodded again.
"Why not develop it domestically?"
Li Mo was speechless, he was stunned for a moment and said: "If you say to an ordinary person that Pan Renmei is actually a very good person, how will this ordinary person react?" Why, because there is a romance "Yang Jiajiang". If you say to an ordinary person that Zhang Fei is actually a white-faced beautiful man, good at calligraphy and painting, and his two daughters are also a great beauty with outstanding morality, and they have been recorded as queens by the queen Liu Chan one after another, what is the reaction of this common people? Why, because there is "Romance of the Three Kingdoms". I don't say whether the level of domestic experts can keep up, nor whether some advanced equipment can be bought. Let's talk about this World Wide Web and Domain Name Server Group, why study it, first, Tim initiated the research and development of the regional network first, and second, left Europe and the United States, can it still become an international standard? ”
"Why can't it become an international standard?"
"Once you are controlled by China, people will not play with you, and it is very easy to redevelop a set of standards with other people's technology. However, if China wants to develop, it must be in line with international standards, and in line with international standards, it must follow other people's standards. Therefore, regardless of what kind of person Pan Renmei is in history and what Zhang Fei looks like, in the eyes of ordinary people, Pan Renmei is a big villain, and Zhang Fei is a reckless man. ”
"It can't be that serious, can it?"
"It is different from the battery of China Power Workshop, the information warfare of the multinational armies of the Gulf War has attracted worldwide attention, but at present, this kind of information warfare only involves satellite navigation technology and some computer technology. In the future, information warfare will include network information warfare, which is directly related to the survival and security of a country. ”
What Li Mo said was a bit strong.
However, if these two technologies are not regarded as open platforms and open to all countries, it will indeed be difficult for them to be recognized by all countries, and it is not conducive to the vigorous development of the Internet industry...... Not to mention anything else, Li Mo still has a lot of IT industry stocks in his hands.
In fact, Li Mo is even more urgent than this expert who can be put into the pot.
But for these people to come to visit, Li Mo is happy to see them.
At present, China's Internet is facing two major policy factors, rather than technical factors. The external policy must be connected to the outside world as soon as possible, although later China built a firewall that goes directly to Pluto, but it is not connected to the outside world, is it called the Internet?
The first is the internal policy factor, Li Mo painstakingly invested in the research and development of the root server, of course, not too many people will notice its importance now, at most think that the combination with the World Wide Web, as well as the existing networking technology in Europe, will have a great role in promoting the Internet that Li Mo said.
But in the future, it will not only have an important impact on national cybersecurity, but also have an important impact on some of Li Mo's future plans.
But now, China is in a period of ideological transition, and there are ...... ideas of any kind of demon moth Maybe if you go back and look at it again, you think it's funny. But being in the bureau is not funny at all. Just like during the Republic of China, Hu Shi and others felt that China was backward, and since then they have put forward the idea of overthrowing Kongjia Village, radical, and even wanted to eliminate Chinese characters for a time. Isn't it funny? At that time, it was not funny at all, these people had a sense of sacred mission in their hearts, and even more so patriotism.
They still have some technical problems that they haven't overcome, but they're really fast.
Once successful, Li Mo will bring them back to China and place them in Europe and the United States, where people will realize their importance and universities will be interested.
But in China, if you don't get it, it will be launched, and you must agree from the above to bring it back to China, so that you can settle several sets of root servers in China.
Limer left these experts behind and took Jobs to Finland again.
Where is there also one of his investments, GSM.
In 2017, GSM was closed. But in the era of 2G communication, it is an extremely important technology.
The reason why the two came was because their research team called and said that their technology was basically mature and had reached the testing stage.
This made Li Mo feel stunned, didn't he only succeed in research and development next year, could it be that he got the help of his own funds and advanced it by more than a year?
Actually, Li Mo doesn't remember it clearly.
In Limer's previous life, this technology was also successfully developed in 91, and in this year, the first GSM system was launched in Europe, but a few months later than now. As for 92, it was its technology that became more mature, allowing the European Committee for Standardization to recognize it as a standard for communication systems and officially promote it to the whole of Europe and even the world.
The two watched the test process.
After the test was successful, Limer, Jobs, and various members of the research team cheered and embraced.
Li Mo was happy, and so was Jobs.
This technology is about to succeed and is about to enter the market.
The mobile phone studied by Li Mo and Jobs is also about to mature, but it relies on this GSM system, which is water, and it doesn't matter if there is no fish, and the mobile phone is a fish, and it is absolutely inseparable from water.
Jobs called Jacobs again and asked him to send someone over and take the relevant technical data with him, because the processor of the new mobile phone must also be synchronized with GSM technology.
Li Mo gave red envelopes to each research member.
His investment is not a sponsorship, and he also has a 40% stake in it, and he also puts forward some conditions, such as providing Qualcomm with relevant data on GSM in a timely manner, and giving priority to China in the promotion.
Of course, there is also the right to send red envelopes...... Even its research committee hopes that Li Mo's red envelope will be a little bigger.
Jobs has returned to the United States, GSM technology has been successfully studied, and he has to speed up the development of mobile phones.
Limo returned to Switzerland.
In the words of his parting from Jobs, Jobs, you are in charge of the technical things, and I am in charge of making money...... Jobs shook his head and smiled bitterly, but he also hit his heart. When he was at Apple, if the R&D funds were sufficient, even if he faced the pressure of IBM, he would not have brought that computer to the market in advance, and of course, there was no later ending.
This is also the biggest difference he felt when he was invited to Yihua by Li Mo.
Regardless of trust and friendship, at least there is no need to worry about R&D funds.
Even if he didn't even see a shadow of the product, Li Mo dared to transfer a large sum of money for him to burn.
He smiled wryly and got on the plane.
Li Mo then got on the plane, but he didn't go back to Geneva, but Zurich, and after the plane landed, he took Uncle Qin and the others directly to the Balrak Hotel. This time, the people who came here were the top second generation of the Soviet Union, and of course, they also had to stay in the best hotels.
But these yamen are not concerned about housing, they are concerned about money......
Li Mo's transaction with them is divided into two parts, the first part is technology, which must be traded at the Northeast Port.
The second part is gold and precious stones, which can also be traded at the northeast port, but Li Mo will not sell these gold and precious stones at the moment, but will mortgage them into cash, and get them abroad, not to mention the complicated procedures, and unnecessary tariffs will be generated.
Therefore, Li Mo will also put them in Switzerland for trading.
Switzerland is a neutral country in Europe, and so are banks...... In fact, this neutrality became a good place for legal money laundering, so many high-ranking corrupt officials in China later registered accounts in Swiss banks. But this policy of ignoring the lives of other countries has created a boom in the Swiss banking industry, and even blatantly embezzled some black money that the owner had accidentally had.
But this kind of policy will indeed facilitate some gray transactions, such as Li Mo's transactions with the Soviet Union.
First valued in Switzerland, and then valued with banks, mortgaged them to various Swiss banks, and Li Mo could use the money to invest again.
The specific transaction is more complex.
These Yanai returned to the Soviet Union last year and became a commercial bank called Virikatov, which can also be translated as the Giant Bank.
On the basis of rapidly promoting market economy, Gorbachev carried out a 500-day plan to transform the Soviet Union.
To put it simply, it is to attract foreign capital, to carry out the denationalization of state assets, not to privatize completely, but to "denationalize" with a mixture of collective ownership and private ownership, to compensate the residents for their losses in price reforms, and to abolish the Union budget and taxes.
The latter one, as anyone who is smart a year later, understands, invisibly provided a catalyst for the collapse of the Soviet Union.
This compensation, which is also easy to understand, is to increase the intensity of printing money.
In fact, in 92, after the chief designer toured south, he deepened the reform and further replaced the planned economy with a market economy, and he also had to print money wildly, which also brought a series of problems, and then there was the reform of Premier Tie......
But in the process, many of the two countries' approaches are very different.
The Soviet Union's approach was very wild, and it even sent money directly to the people, not once or twice, but several times......
Petrov's giant bank opened at the right time, in accordance with the law, in line with the policy, and in line with the times.
I just happen to have a lot of money in my hand, and I can't buy anything suitable for spending it. If you want to save, you are also afraid of depreciation. But no matter how much it is depreciated, it will not be possible to depreciate by 75% in a year, so many residents have deposited their money in Giant Bank after hearing about the ultra-high interest rate of Giant Bank.
It is impossible for Li Mo to believe the accounts of the Giant Bank, and in order to avoid suspicion and reduce the attention of others, it is impossible for him to plant people in the Giant Bank.
Therefore, the nature of this transaction is to buy gold and precious stones from these Yanai in disguise, and as for the various things of the Giant Bank, it has nothing to do with Li Mo.
As for the settlement of the transaction, Li Mo asked someone to value these gold and gemstones, of course, these yamen will also invite some appraisers to come over, based on the results of the valuation on both sides, supplemented by the accounts of the Giant Bank, and the final result is the amount of rubles for the transaction.
Then the stocks and shares mortgaged by Li Mo were re-evaluated, and after the re-evaluation, Li Mo treated the stocks or shares with value, and asked the notary public to notarize them.
Four years later, Li Mo came over with the funds and exchanged them for rubles first...... There is no doubt about it, because in the process, these offices did not pay much money, and all the money came from various Soviet savings households in rubles. Li Mo returned the ruble, the bank did not default, and the officials also received a lot of benefits, and everyone was happy, and the transaction was successfully concluded.
According to the contract, Li Mo must repay the rubles that were six times the original valuation, and then get back the shares and shares pledged to Giant Bank. If these officials do not agree, sorry, according to the contract, Li Mo has the right to forcibly withdraw these stocks and shares.
Moreover, what these officials brought back to the Soviet Union was not stocks and shares, but mortgage documents notarized by a notary public, and as long as Li Mo repaid them, whether they accepted them or not, after four years, they had nothing to do with these stocks and shares. At the same time, in this mortgage process, Li Mo has no right to use these stocks and shares, including enterprises that sell or hollow out the mortgaged shares in disguise, etc., once the mortgage is out, these offices will hire accountants to supervise the accounts of the pledged companies, but these offices also do not have any right to use these stocks and shares.
In addition to these two parties, they will also hire appraisers to come over, and several Swiss banks will also hire appraisers to come over and value these gold and gems, and then compromise with Li Mo's appraisers, and Li Mo will put these gold and gems in these banks and leave with loans.
The amount of the two final valuations can be very different, the latter is a mortgage, and the amount of the valuation may be much less.
The interest is not the same.
The former Li Mo paid Giant Bank an ultra-high interest, but it is impossible to pay these Swiss banks a very high interest, which can only be regarded as normal loan interest. There is also a difference, that is, the latter takes longer to repay, and it must wait until 98 years for Li Mo to repay the principal and interest.
In 98, Li Mo casually sold a little Microsoft stock, and the principal and interest were repaid.
Although it was the peak of China's layoffs, the country's total purchasing power gradually increased, just in time to turn these gold gems into jewelry and disguise them into cash. It is impossible to delay it for too long, although Hao Lick negotiates the annual interest to about 10 percent, but the accumulated interest in seven or eight years rolls down, and the interest will exceed the principal at that time.
The whole transaction process, several parties will be happy. There are people who laugh, and there are people who cry, and there are more people who cry.
Hollick came with the appraiser.
The whole transaction process seems reasonable, but it is actually a gray transaction, and it is very complicated, but there are some transactions that are more complicated, so to speak, the entire financial system has been played by the Western investors, and everyone is basically acceptable to this transaction. However, it will involve a huge amount of money, and each party will arrange for a close confidant, or someone who can be trusted, to lead the team into the assessment.
This was the first transaction, and it was also a model for future transactions, and Li Mo stayed in Zurich.
Three days later, an unexpected person came to him.
Aunt Mo found it.
However, Zurich is on the southern edge of Germany, very close, and Quan Dang Li Mo returned to his hometown from the magic capital.
"Li, you're digging into the foot of the socialist wall again."
"Merkel, you are now a politician in the Western camp, you have to remember who you are."
Merkel pouted and said, "Lee, in short, it's not right for you to do this." ”
"Hey, is there a Stasi in West Germany?"
"Lee, you're not the only smart person in this world."
"Merkel, I'm a businessman, a businessman, understand?"
But Li Mo was thinking in his heart, if he didn't know about it, he couldn't do it unless he did. You are careful, if someone pays attention, you can still know what you do, and the other party is not an individual, nor an enterprise, but a country, no matter how rich you are, in front of the state machine, it is nothing, unless the country is a small country.
The Germans knew it, and the Soviets knew it even more.
Fortunately, with Gorbachev's 500-day plan, the supporters were the Soviet "elite" academician Shatarin, and the opponent was Yeltsin, but Yeltsin was a false opponent and a real seizure of power...... Later he went even further than Gorbachev. Therefore, a small poem was later circulated in Russia:
Lenin won the revolution, Stalin won the war, Khrushchev changed the currency, and Brezhnev changed the constitution.
Gorbachev and Yelitsin, better than all of them, brought down the whole country according to the "500-day plan".
If we had said this kind of thing before, we might not have believed our ears: what Hitler didn't do, the people did.
The whole country was bleeding, the people were crying, but the president said on television: "The process is going well!"
There are also people who really oppose it, but there are also people who fake support it, and they really seek power and benefits.
In short, since the launch of this 500-day plan, the Soviet Union has become a mess, otherwise Li Mo would not dare to initiate this transaction. The KGB is not a dry meal, they are ruthless and can do anything...... Even if Li Mo is killed, it is not surprising.
But it also sounded a wake-up call for Li Mo, the Soviet Union was very chaotic, and the magnates were all reaping the benefits, and this time more than 80 people were involved in the government, and ninety percent of them were the second generation of the military, which also meant that there were more than 80 powerful people standing behind it.
And he is using real gold and silver assets as collateral, but this is a gambling risky transaction, even if he gets some technology from these ya, it can barely be within the range that some people can bear, but if he ventures to participate in military technology transactions for China, he will die a miserable death if he doesn't get it right.
Of course, after the collapse of the Soviet Union, Russia was even more chaotic, and at that time it was not involved in it, and these second generations traded with the Chinese military, and it was about safe. However, until the collapse of the Soviet Union, it is better not to mess around in Europe.
