Chapter 319: Authority
"Jobs, if you start with the PC, it is difficult to kill a brand in this field, and the further you go, more companies will enter the PC industry. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info" After Li Mo finished speaking, he took out a book, which was the previous editions of the Jurassic Park novels he wrote.
Li Mo looked through the illustrations, and there was a mobile phone inside.
Only early editions of Jurassic Park had this illustration, and later Motorola gave Bantam a little money and replaced the phone with Big Brother.
Li Mo pretended not to know.
To make it clear, Motorola will inevitably develop on it, which is not the result that Li Mo wants to see.
So Motorola continued to develop Big Brother, and then in the early nineties launched the 9900, which was lighter, but still Big Brother. In 1992, Nokia released its first portable phone. Then in '95, Motorola introduced the first flip phone...... The era of the real mobile phone has arrived.
At this time, Li Mo can still have time to grab it.
"Steve Jobs, Motorola gave Bantam some money for their clumsy mobile phone, but in my mind I didn't think it was a real phone, it was a phone that I drew in this illustration. ”
"Li, are you saying that with this highly imaginative mobile phone, the status of the new company will be raised, and after it is raised, no matter what products are made, including PCs, as long as they are not bad, they will have a brand effect?"
"Not bad. ”
This is the path that Apple will take in the future.
Apple will continue to keep the PC and laptop business in the future, and it seems that the sales volume is very ordinary, but what about the profit? The profit from selling one unit can be equivalent to the profit of an ordinary company selling dozens of units!
Li Mo also remembered that Apple's annual revenue in 15 years was $233.715 billion, and the annual net profit reached a terrifying $53.394 billion. And Huawei is $60.8 billion and $5.7 billion, Huawei is good, Xiaomi is $12.5 billion and more than a billion dollars.
The profit-to-profit ratio is close to 23 percent, 9.0 percent, and 8.00 percent.
"This is a technical ...... No, why doesn't your phone have an antenna?"
If you have used an old-fashioned mobile phone before, you know that whether it is a big brother or a mobile phone in the 90s, there is a small tail, that is, an antenna.
Mobile phones without antennas actually have antennas, but the antennas are built-in.
However, if you want to build an antenna, you need some hardware and material support, especially the antenna with a metal shell, which not only needs material and technical support, but also some tips.
But this technology is also a rotten street technology for later people, of course, some materials and hardware still can't keep up.
Li Mo also said it one by one, and for the time being, he can use it as a selling point in the future, and he is not in a hurry to launch it. In fact, the effect of the antenna's built-in receiving signal is indeed not as good as that of the antenna's external reception. Not only the technology of the mobile phone itself, but also the temporary technology of each mobile phone signal station cannot keep up.
Mobile phones have been developed, and many hardware technologies are also related to PCs, but the focus is different, not only PCs, but also home appliances.
"Home appliances?" Jobs's imagination was good, and he was also frightened by Li Mo's leapfrog thinking.
"It's not just any appliance. Li Mo finally opened his box and took out many drawings, which not only showed a variety of beautiful mobile phones from the 90s and the beginning of the new century, or representative models, but also VCDs and DVDs, MP3s and MP4s, but would not immediately register patents.
If it is registered, if it is leaked by the patent offices of various countries, someone will pay attention to it, and this shape patent is the easiest to bypass.
Even if he was ready to register a patent when he was ready to go on the market, Li Mo would register countless patents with similar appearances in the same way as he protected his intellectual property rights, forming patent barriers.
Li Mo is already very familiar with these products, and he explained them in detail.
Jobs listened quietly, yes, the current technology can not support it for the time being, but in the past ten years, the technology is developing rapidly, that is, in a few years, these products have the possibility of realization.
Think about it, once you take the lead in realizing them one by one, what kind of high quality will this new company form in the eyes of customers in the future?
Li Mo carefully put the drawings back into the safe.
Jobs also said carefully: "Lee, be sure to hide them." ”
What is wealth, this is the real wealth.
"The one who knows, and knows their true value, is the two of you, and am I not at ease with you?"
Having said that, Jobs already knew about Li Mo's plan, and Li Mo didn't figure it out himself when he planned and arranged it more carefully.
"Lee, you're going to take the route of an empire that is bigger than HP. ”
". ”
To be precise, it's the Samsung route.
Even if Apple goes downhill later, no one dares to underestimate Apple, as Huawei President Ren Zhengfei said, no one is allowed to mention defeating Apple and knocking down Samsung, because even if it is Huawei, it is far from being able to fight Apple for profit, and it is also far from fighting for Samsung in terms of comprehensive ability and strength.
"Lee, how much capital does this need?" muttered Jobs.
Li Mo stretched out his hand and gestured an approximate number.
Although this is a terrifying number, funds are still very tight to realize Li Mo's ideas. First of all, if you want not to be strangled by Motorola in the future, you must hire someone to develop a large number of patents, or use a lot of money to buy patents, at least you have me, I have you, Motorola has to sigh.
"So much money...... Li, I've heard that you have a disagreement with Tiger Fund?"
"They think only of good things. Li Mo told me about the last meeting.
"Hehe, but Lee, you can't take it lightly either. ”
"Jobs, they have a lot of people and a lot of money, but let's put it this way, if there is really a head-on conflict, I estimate that sixty percent of the results will be a defeat for both, and the rest of the time, I will occupy a twenty-five chance of failure, but less than one percent is a fiasco. They account for a 5 percent chance of failure, but also half a percent of the failures. Maybe I'm a little weaker, but why clash head-on with them. ”
Conflict is inevitable at the end of next year.
Don't imagine how perfect these markets in the West are, with the strength of these people, it is easy to find out the approximate whereabouts of your money.
Therefore, it will inevitably bring some losses to Li Mo at that time.
For example, originally, Li Mo pondered that the stock market index reached its peak on December 19, that is, at this time, Japanese stocks were the most valuable, Li Mo would definitely not wait until that day to make a move, it was too risky, but it could be placed in mid-November.
With Japan's daily trading volume of tens of billions or tens of billions next year, his stocks will be cashed out unknowingly within two or three days at most, and the funds will be withdrawn from the market, and then he will prepare for future shorting.
At the beginning of the new year, the financial report came out, a large number of short orders appeared in the market, people panicked, and the first part of the trilogy of the Japanese stock market crash began.
But in order to prevent these people from pitting off the funds in their hands, Li Mo is very likely to sell them all in October, which will undoubtedly reduce a lot of income.
Even Li Mo has to be on guard to prevent these funds from expanding the stock market in advance and starting to do so next fall...... However, these are not too many problems, compared to the funds in their own hands, the Japanese stock market in the tens of billions of dollars is the main target of their hunting.
They let Li Mo cause some losses, but if Li Mo was careful in the final battle, he would also let these funds cause some losses. Regarding the operation in the past two years, Li Mo already has an approximate plan.
"Jobs, with my prudence and wisdom, you don't have to worry about these PCs and mobile phones, anyway, you don't have to worry about wealth in your life. ”
"Hahaha," Jobs grinned for a moment.
Indeed, Li Mo took a fancy to his wisdom, but he has always been very good to Jobs, and Jobs can also feel Li Mo's friendship.
If nothing else, just these wonderful ideas, if he doesn't trust himself, can he show himself?
"Jobs, I have an idea about this new company, and I really can't withdraw funds this year, but you and Hao Lick pay attention to it, including talents, patents, and some small valuable companies, and start to acquire and recruit one after another next year, maybe I will be able to draw a lot of money the year after next year to formally research and develop. And in the past two years, the relevant technology will be more developed, and some technologies and hardware will still not be able to keep up with the current research and development. ”
"Yes, indeed. ”
"I said that I would invite you with an annual salary of $150 million, which is an insult to your talent. ”
"Li, 100 million dollars, no, 10 million is fine, give me a small share, and I'll be satisfied. Lee, I know you trust me, but don't hold me in high esteem. Jobs said with some shame that he couldn't be a little proud of the ideas in Limer's box.
"Jobs, don't be unconfident, in my plan, it is arranged like this, in the future, I will give you 20 percent of the dry shares, and also take out 15 percent of the shares, which will be used to recruit talents, and the remaining shares will be mine, as well as the small shareholders in the fund. In addition, as I said before, give you the right to say anything in the company, even if what I said, if there is a conflict with your opinion, your opinion must be the criterion, and this article will also be written in the contract. ”
Li ...... It really doesn't work. ”
"Jobs, it's easy to get acquainted and difficult to get along, once you cooperate, you must take one person as the leader, if it is two leaders, get along, there will inevitably be some bumps, including management opinions, research and development opinions, then if you don't get it right, it will become the second Cisco. And this clause is permanent, and it will never end you up like Apple. ”
After Li Mo applied a drop of eye drops to Apple, he said: "As for the huge amount of funds for the company's expansion and research and development, you don't have to worry, I am here." ”
Jobs amused again, then pondered.
He will not have any dissatisfaction with Li Mo's arrangement.
In fact, it was this thrill of developing new technologies that Joe wanted, and he was later invited to Apple, which only gave him a 1% stake. But he was given one of the most important things, and that was to have supreme rights.
This authority, Li Mo also gave it.
However, this stall is far more than the apple stall that was about to fall in 96, and it was founded from scratch, even the self-confident Jobs did not feel too sure.
Li Mo was also pondering.
He will not give much of the shares of minority shareholders, at most ten percent.
Jobs's shares are also not much, and what happened to Apple later, Li Mo does not know, but as long as Apple can continue to stand for 20 years, the wealth it earns can almost reach 2 trillion US dollars. What kind of concept is this: The cost of the USS Ford aircraft carrier was only $30 billion! China's military expenditure is only $100 billion a year!
And in '96, Apple was a company that was on the verge of bankruptcy.
And so many shares must be given, otherwise Apple will ask Jobs to go back in the future, with Jobs' feelings for Apple, Li Mo can't get it right, and he really can't keep it. It has nothing to do with Jobs's dedication, Li Mo is absolutely relieved that with these shares, Apple will bring an eighty-person sedan chair in the future, and he will not be able to return Jobs.
In addition, the Americans occupy nearly half of the shares in it, and it will not be easy for anyone to make trouble when the time comes.
Theoretically, the new company would have access to both the U.S. and Chinese markets.
The U.S. market is open, and the European market won't be too difficult.
And with his own prophetic reminders, what kind of height Jobs can take this company to, which also makes Li Mo look forward to it.
But this is a theory, and when it comes to Apple in the future, many Americans will feel dazzled by their shares.
Just in case, it's a good idea to find one or two more backup companies...... He looked at the world map on the wall, of course, this backup company could not be located in Singapore, nor in Xiangjiang, his eyes turned on one country, and finally turned to two countries in Europe. Europe also excludes China, especially the developed countries of Western Europe, which are even worse than the United States for China, and the main thing for the United States is to prevent China from becoming big and to discriminate against China, which is much better than that of Western European countries.
But there is a chance, a very risky one.
Li Mo was a little undecided.
Charlize ran in, and Hollick immediately put his finger to his mouth and told her not to interrupt the two of them. This is not a joke, if Li Mo and Steve Jobs really join forces to establish this company, it will be the most important thing in the technology industry.
Charlize obediently prepared to go downstairs.
"Come in," said Limer,
Jobs also came to his senses and asked, "Lee, aren't you afraid that I'll mess up?"
Li Mo was overjoyed, he knew that when Jobs asked this question, it was time for Jobs to make a decision.
