In Li Mo's mind, it is much more important than acquiring the copyrights of various essences of Marvel. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

But at the moment, not many people will think about it.

Li Mo accepted many questions from reporters, some Li Mo answered, and some Li Mo did not answer.

This press conference ends.

Limer went to San Francisco again and met with Bill Gates, Paul and Ballmer.

At the beginning, Li Mo was indeed using them, but after getting along for so long, it was impossible to say that there was no friendship.

Seeing the three of them coming, Li Mo was still very happy.

"Lee, I heard you're having a big deal with Jobs?" asked Paul with interest.

Li Mo nodded.

What kind of big guy is it, it is impossible for someone who knows the inside story to reveal his mouth.

But Bill Gates and Paul have always been interested in this.

Paul, in particular, spends money not only on profligacy, but also on reckless investment.

But it also depends on what kind of investment, such as Yili and Yimei, Paul will not be interested. However, it was jointly developed by Jobs and Jacobs, and most of them were related to electronic communications or computers, and these industries were not only of interest to Paul, but also to Bill Gates.

And in the past few years, Li Mo has made a lot of money with them, and it happened that Li Mo came to the United States, and they made several phone calls and made tentative inquiries.

So Li Mo asked them to come over before leaving.

"What big guy?"

"It will be Yihua's flagship product in the future, and it will be kept secret for the time being, and I will notify you when the technology is mature, and of course, I will invite you to join the shares." ”

At the moment, its stake has not yet been determined.

But when the shares are determined, Bill Gates may not be able to take much advantage, because Yihua also includes Qualcomm's shares, Qualcomm has TSMC and Asus's shares, Yihua also has the shares of China Power Square, and by 92 years, these companies will have great development.

Li Mo can't say any of this.

And in his mind, even if it is delayed until 92 for valuation, it is a more cost-effective investment.

You have to think about hundreds of times thousands of times returns, where to find it, even if the current Microsoft stock will not have a hundred times the return in the future.

Li Mo expressed his attitude, and the three of them tacitly did not ask.

In general, Li Mo's investment in Microsoft has taken a lot of advantage, but it has brought them more returns in recent years.

Even Microsoft itself, Li Mo has played a role in some guidance.

However, Li Mo said another thing, with Li Mo's appropriation, Qualcomm, TSMC and Asus control many technologies, although they still need further support from Li Mo's funds to allow them to grow rapidly. However, they have also launched some products one after another, and have received a lot of orders. ASUS has also begun to march into PCs and notebooks, among which the biggest confidence is that not only several companies have bought many technical patents, but also many parts that can be produced by several companies, and there are many parts ASUS itself has begun to produce. There are other confidences, such as the battery of China Power Fang, which is sold to other companies at a price, and sold to ASUS may only be nearly half of the price.

Undoubtedly, ASUS will have a lower production cost, and if the cost is low, it will have a better competitive advantage.

This is the hardware, but also the software.

ASUS also belongs to the company under Li Mo's name, so when buying Microsoft software, Microsoft must fulfill the original contract and sell it to ASUS at a market price of 70%.

"Don't worry, Li, but I'm worried that you may not be able to compete with your Chinese computer ...... with genuine software," Bill Gates said.

This is also divided into two parts, by 90 years, there are more computers in China, and there are very few genuine ones, even if there are, they are also domestic companies such as Lenovo. Abroad, it is mostly parallel imports, or counterfeit products, and the other is the assembly machine, which is actually not good, and Lenovo is also equivalent to the assembly machine.

But it can only be said that it has grown compared to previous years, and this market is still not taken into account by major computer companies.

As for the software, almost all of them are copycats.

Later, some people said that Microsoft was playing big chess, and Bill Gates was smart, but could he think of the Chinese computer market in more than ten years?

Moreover, China is now a non-WTO country, and enterprises from all countries do not have the ability to impose patent penalties on China.

Later, China paid more and more attention to intellectual property rights, and Microsoft came, but if it has money and does not make money, is Microsoft a fool? At least Microsoft is much better than Qualcomm in Li Mo's previous life.

There are also people who say that Chinese IT workers are incompetent and have not launched their own operating systems.

Going back to the 70s, 80s, and early 90s, how big is the gap between China and the United States in the IT industry? Later, China was rapidly catching up, but people's operating systems have become the standard, and a large number of patents have been registered, forming a thick patent barrier, and it is almost impossible to bypass it. In fact, in the IT industry, China has done a very good job in the future. Think about India, although they claim to be an IT power, they are actually outsourcing for American companies, how many IT industries are there?

Therefore, Bill Gates still can't look at Li Mo's computer.

But this, Bill Gates really underestimated.

Although ASUS will use genuine software, in the future, almost all parts can be produced by themselves, and the cost alone is still stronger than most companies, even better than Lenovo.

Although China does not attach importance to intellectual property rights, it is just genuine software, which will also give customers a good impression.

This is domestic, foreign, can produce their own parts, and borrowed Chinese manpower advantages, from genuine software to batteries and save a lot of costs, and Li Mo is also willing to inject investment, then ASUS products will at least have a greater cost advantage than Dell.

Li Mo smiled.

He thought to himself, if you don't mention foreign, it's domestic, and you can't underestimate me.

With a contract in hand, Li Mo just said hello.

After finishing business, Li Mo held a small party, and at the same time invited a group of his classmates over.

With the growth of Microsoft's market capitalization, Bill Gates and the three gradually have a lot of fame in the United States. Li Mo asked his classmates to come to the party, one is to cultivate communication skills, and the other is to cultivate some vision, especially when encountering some big people, he can't have stage fright.

The party ended, and the next day Bill Gates and the three of them returned, and Li Mo hosted a meeting at his house.

The senior management of Yili, Yibao, Aiao Studio, and Rongdeke came together. There are also Qualcomm and Yihua, Qualcomm began to have some orders of its own, but like Asus, because of Li Mo's promotion, the steps are too big, and the benefits of orders can't keep up with the speed of burning money, and in the next two years, Li Mo still needs support, but next year, with more products and orders in hand, Li Mo's support funds will be less and less. As for Yihua, Li Mo has already bought General Xu's patent, only research and development, with the support of these patented technologies, the money spent will not be too much. Either it is the cost of future production and construction.

Specifically, Li Mo also said what he should have said in Jobs' laboratory a few days ago, so the two companies do not need to send senior executives to attend this meeting.

In addition, there are his classmates.

If it weren't for Yihua's mobile phone, the development of these four companies could be put on the table, and Li Mo asked his classmates to participate in this meeting to cultivate their insight and thinking ability.

Li Mo shook Todd's hand first.

As Li Mo guessed, although Pereman got a lot of money this time, because he bought Marvel itself to make money, he was reluctant to give dividends to employees, and the core intellectual property was sold, which led to the dissatisfaction of many employees within Marvel.

Shelfman came to Todd and dug him up almost without much effort, not only did Todd come over, but he also brought several capable young cartoonists to Io Studios. This is only the first batch, and there will be later, according to Todd's own words, he can at least recruit twenty or thirty capable cartoonists for Io Studios, who are capable and incapable, let them continue to stay at Marvel.

Todd's arrival also officially marked the development of IoStudio into a regular company......

The four senior executives reported to Li Mo on the status of the four companies.

After Li Mo listened, he didn't get down to business, but talked about the noodle shop of the little fat man's father.

Lao Du didn't worry about his son, his son came to the magic capital to go to college, and he also came to the magic capital to open a noodle shop.

This spring, the little fat man came to the United States to study.

It is impossible for Lao Du to come to the United States to open a noodle shop.

Moreover, Li Mo took care of the study abroad expenses of more than a dozen students, and Lao Du felt very at a loss. The son grew up, studied abroad again, and even his girlfriend talked about it, for Xie Yuhe, Li Ming thought it was a little feminine, but Lao Du liked it very much, thinking that this girl was filial and self-reliant...... But here's the problem, after studying abroad, there is no doubt that they don't have to worry about their work after studying abroad, and even if they get married, they don't want to worry about it, so what else does he need to do for his son?

Old Du Si thought about it and brought his daughter to the magic capital. The son's problem is solved, let the daughter help, and in the future, she can prepare some dowry for her daughter in the future. Of course, if the son's problem is not solved, continue to let the daughter stay in her hometown.

Regarding Lao Du's patriarchy, Li Mo did not express his opinion.

He won't take it out and say it either.

What he said was another thing, this semester, Li Mo stayed in school for most of the time, and occasionally went to Lao Du Noodle Restaurant to eat a bowl of noodles.

The business of Lao Du's noodle restaurant is getting better and better, so Li Mo chatted with Lao Du.

Lao Du gave two answers, one is real materials, just like meat, many restaurants buy neck meat in order to save costs.

As we all know, the first procedure for killing pigs is to let blood, otherwise the blood will choke on the pork, and the pork will become fishy, but even if the blood is released, the meat on the neck will also choke on blood, so that piece of meat is the most unpalatable.

These restaurants buy them back at a very cheap price and then use rice wine and other condiments to cover up the fishy smell.

However, no matter how much you try to cover it up, it is not as tasty as normal pork.

Lao Du has never bought neck meat, but tries to buy the best ingredients to come back for processing.

Even Lao Du is still studying what kind of pork and mutton is delicious.

The second is that Lao Du will take time out every summer vacation to eat some famous noodles in various places and figure out how people make noodles.

Of course, as a diner, they don't think about the story behind this, they only know that Lao Du noodles taste good, and from time to time there can be a surprise with a new pattern, so every time it is time to eat, the business of Lao Du Noodle Restaurant will be in a state of explosion, not only many students come to eat, but also residents around the left and right come to eat.

The business is good, and the money is more, under Li Mo's suggestion, the son doesn't seem to need much money from him anyway, so Lao Du put down his façade room.

This is not a meeting in the conference room, but a meeting in the large living room of Li Mo's mansion, everyone sits casually, and when they hear this, all the high-level executives look at the little fat man together.

The little fat man blushed.

His father pondered that the taste of noodles and workmanship had nothing to do with Li Mo, but it was Li Mo's idea to go out later to steal the teacher and learn the arts.

Hao Like said: "Boss, do you mean that a company, no matter how big or small, should pay attention to quality and innovation?"

"Exactly. ”

Li Mo began to get down to business.

Let's start with IPOH.

The first thing Yibao did after acquiring Jiafukang was to use the technology of Jiafukang and Yibao to convert Jiafukang's arcade IB machine into an arcade machine, and also to make the IB machine an arcade machine, so as to squeeze the last waste heat of the arcade. In Li Mo's memory, after actually entering the new century, arcade machines have not been eliminated in China, but the general trend is still computerized and mobile phones.

After Kenzo Mimoto himself entered the headquarters of Yibao, he learned about the entire future development strategy of Yibao, and he was also frightened by these development strategies.

If Jia Fukang is planned according to his stubbornness, Jia Fukang will have to play sooner or later.

Didn't play either, in Li Mo's memory, it seems that this company also caught the tail of the arcade in the nineties, but after entering the new century, it did start to be worse every year.

The second is restructuring and integration.

Until now, Yibao will completely integrate Jiafukang.

So Li Mo instructed them to do another thing, and that was to initiate an acquisition of Enix Games.

But this acquisition is not so urgent, it can be premium, not too much. Once acquired, it must be restructured immediately, especially in case of bloat.

There are many benefits to acquiring Enix Games, which owns a lot of games, enriches the IB platform, has some of its own independent intellectual property rights, and has a lot of management and technical talent that Yibao needs.

After winning Namco, Square Enix, Gafulkang and Enix Games in a row, although the four companies together still can't compete with Nintendo, they can still occupy a place in Japan.

It also eliminates a potential game giant in the future for Yibao and reduces a strong competitor.

With Yibao's sales and profits, taking on more debt will not generate too much pressure. In the future, is a company that does not owe debts called a company?

And Li Mo is different from Nintendo, who considers itself a game giant and boss, becoming more and more arrogant and not paying attention to new technologies. But Li Mo has been in the IT and mobile phone industries for a long time, so Li Mo firmly believes that at most after the new century, Yibao will be able to pull Nintendo down.

But once Enix Games is acquired, there will be a phenomenon that Yibao will become bloated. Nintendo's previous strategy was the same as that of IoStudio today, which was to streamline the government, so it maintained high turnover and high profits.

But now Nintendo has some bloated trends, and Yibao cannot follow in the footsteps of Nintendo after entering the new century, and from now on, this hidden danger must be nipped in the bud.

This is a good saying, a bad one, that is the one who really does things, and the talent stays. If you are not talented and do things at ease, let them all get out, and be sure to keep every department running efficiently.

Mimoto Ken Sanyi took a note of it.

Li Mo began to say Yili.

In order to promote Bes, Elico spent a lot of money this time.

But after the achievements of Zhang Ting and Liu Wanruo, the actual sales of Besi are not too ideal.

There is an opinion within Yili that Beth promotes the oriental style, so it is not recognized by more customers.

Li Mo looked at several senior executives of Yili and said: "Within Yili, you can put forward different opinions, and even put forward some different opinions on my decision-making, but these opinions are for my reference. Once decided, there can be opinions, but there can be no doubts and objections. ”

Originally, Li Mo was opposed to Yili's desire to enter the cutting-edge clothing brand. Just like L'Oreal, L'Oreal's positioning is similar to that of Little Nurse, which is a low-end brand, but the most profitable of the brands under the L'Oreal Group is precisely this low-end brand, not some cutting-edge brands.

Li Mo finally gave in due to various considerations, but now there are different voices, which is already a very bad trend.

Li Mo said again: "For companies, I take a hands-off attitude, but I don't want to see a trend...... Kick me out!"

This sentence is too heavy, and it was criticized by Li Mo in front of everyone, so I can imagine Li Mo's mood.

If Li Mo really had this kind of thought, Li Mo would inevitably carry out a purge of the top management of Yili's parent company.

Tyler Nilger's forehead was beaded with sweat.

"Why did I launch this cultural style of clothing? Because clothing has developed to this day, all kinds of cultural styles have been dug up, even African cultural styles have been dug up. As a new brand, can we compete with any of the old brands? So I put Bisi on the Chinese style, because China's previous lockdown policy has led to the Chinese cultural style being both mysterious and unpopular, and even the world's understanding of China is like a Great Wall. Moreover, silk culture has a long history, and the connection between the two will play a role of one plus one equals three. The main reason why sales are not good at the moment is not the oriental cultural style, but the lack of time for gestation as a top luxury brand. What is pregnancy? If you don't conceive in October, can you croak? Can you enter adulthood without more than ten years of growth? Also, Yili is the Yili of Yi Group, not Mattel's Yili! I allow opinions, but I don't allow different voices! Taylor, give you three months!"

Three months refers to the time to rectify Yili.

Not only do the people installed by Mattel want to be the masters of the house, but Yili has developed to the present, and some people are too confident.

Li Mo can let go, but he can't let the companies out of his control.

Unless Yili's senior management has the skills of Jobs, even Jobs will not have the idea of kicking Li Mo out.

Li Mo said a little heavily, but it is true that these voices within Yili are developing in a bad direction.

Then it was time for the Io studio.

In the past, Li Mo had been managed by Hollick and Scherfman, but now that Todd is here, he must also make a plan.

Li Mo proposed the vine strategy, which seems to have its own independent distribution channels, including sales channels and publishing channels, etc., which is very beneficial to Io Studios. In fact, it is not, firstly, it damages the interests of the collaborators, makes them suspicious, and makes Io Studio, like Marvel, form a situation of fighting alone, and secondly, it is difficult to produce the bloated that Li Mo said.

Of course, Todd has poached many people from Marvel, and in addition to relying on Li Mo's creativity in the future, Io Studio will also have its own creative plan, and other development routes will continue to remain unchanged, that is, the strategy of cooperating with various collaborators and maximizing the benefits of each intellectual property is cooperation, not autonomy, so Li Mo said that it is a vine plan. Although there is a lot less autonomy, it can give the various partners peace of mind, and at the same time, they can continue to maintain the line of simplicity and high profits.

Rong Dike is still the best, almost no need for Li Mo to worry about it, but after the Spring Festival, Li Mo will let "The Lion King 1" be handed over to Disney, then in the summer of the next year, this cartoon will inevitably be able to be moved to the big screen.

In Li Mo's previous life, it was not until the arrival of the new century that Hollywood gradually perfected the derivatives industry.

Therefore, in the previous life, although the cartoon received many derivative benefits, it did not maximize it.

But then again, before the 90s, cartoons that could sell well were almost as rare as pandas. Cartoons can't sell big, and it's impossible to drive the profits of derivatives.

So Li Mo mentioned it by the way, so that Rong Deke can't despise this cartoon, and from now on, it is necessary to make preparations.

And with the big sale of this cartoon, the technology is developing faster and faster, so there will be more animated blockbusters on the big screen, and it is also time for Rong Dirk to really rise.

After Li Mo finished talking about the situation, the senior executives of the four companies had dinner and went back one after another.

His classmates are still staying at Li Mo's house.

"Guys, I'm going back. After Li Mo finished speaking, he looked at the expressions on the faces of his classmates...... He wants to go back, but because the winter vacation of the two countries is different, China is about to celebrate the Spring Festival, but he is still going to school here. When you are in school, it is impossible to go back for the New Year.
