Chapter 762: Awesome My Brother
The war in Afghanistan has broken out!
In the cold winter of the northern hemisphere in 02, the US military was still as strong as ever, as if it was not affected by the weather at all. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
The U.S. aircraft carrier battle group has once again sailed into the Arabian Sea, and U.S. military bases are busy......
Fighter jets, bombers, and cruise missiles took turns to name key targets in Afghanistan, a country that had only ended its war with the Soviet Union more than a decade ago and had no time to recover from the wounds of the war, and was once again facing a desperately powerful enemy, the world's number one power, the United States.
Years of war have taught them that it is useless to cry and mourn......
The men took up their guns, left the city, and plunged into the mountains and forests, and the only way they could choose to fight was guerrilla warfare.
In a few days, the United States once again flexed its muscles to the whole world, and the confidence of the American people who had been severely hit by the Double 11 terrorist attack once again found its footing......
It is through this war that the United States has expressed that I am strong, I am strong, and I can fight five at a time! The United States now wants to ask, who else is there?
For a time, the entire Arabian Sea and the Middle Eastern countries along the Persian Gulf were all shocked by the arrogance of the United States, and the atmosphere did not dare to breathe.
The world is also focused on that tragic part of Afghanistan.
Now the Americans are clamoring with high spirits to kill the Taliban and bin Laden, and all the enemies of the United States will finally be swept into the scrap of history...... No one could have imagined that this time the United States would also be completely mired in a quagmire like the former Soviet Union!
In recent years, everyone has been trained for a long time, and when it comes to guerrilla warfare, the Afghan people are probably the most experienced.
Afghanistan this year, Iraq next year!
In later generations, Bush Jr., who was smeared as having an IQ of just over 90 and had just gotten rid of the mildly mentally handicapped, completely dragged the United States into a quagmire.
In this regard, Yang Fan can only say that this Nima American politician is really not ordinary and deep!
After all, Yang Fan didn't go to see Lima's catwalk, but rushed to San Francisco.
On the plane flying from New York to San Francisco, Zhao Sheng read the war report, and the US military was once again in a state of overwhelm, and one target after another was still being eliminated.
Because at this stage, it is all air raids, and there is no ground operation, and the United States still maintains a record of zero casualties......
After a pause, Zhao Sheng asked Yang Fan, "What impact do you think this war will have on the world?" ”
Yang Fan thought for a while and said, "The situation in Central Asia will deteriorate, and the SCO in the first half of last year, oh, in the first half of last year, ......"
Because he had just stepped into the New Year, Yang Fan almost forgot for a while that it was now 02 years.
China, Russia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan and Uzbekistan signed a declaration on the establishment of the SCO in June last year, just over half a year ago, to strengthen cooperation between them...... In just half a year, the situation in Central Asia has suddenly deteriorated, and many cooperation efforts have naturally not been able to proceed normally.
When it did not have the strength to break out of the first island chain for the time being, China's strategy of uniting with Russia, which was being pressed in Eastern Europe, to prepare for a land breakthrough from Central Asia was frustrated as soon as it was implemented.
The United States has wedged a big nail in Afghanistan at once, and it is impossible for the surrounding countries not to be affected, and the diplomatic efforts of the previous years have at least regressed a lot, if not to mention in vain.
But think about the cost of the United States in later generations......
It can only be said that the United States has definitely not taken advantage, trillions of dollars of investment, 2,000 lives in exchange for the mayor of Kabul.
That's right, the Taliban, who were defeated by the U.S. military in the early days of later generations, have returned, and the U.S.-backed Afghan president is roughly equal to the mayor of Kabul.
Thinking about it, Yang Fan smiled and said, "I don't think the United States is much better than the Soviet Union." There was not much that could be done against the guerrillas who had burrowed into the mountains. Well, the USSR held out in this quagmire for ten years, and the United States is not expected to be much stronger. ”
Although it has undermined the strategic layout of China and Russia, there is a serious gap between input and output, and it has also stripped off the last coat of the United States, which has also changed the strategic posture of the United States in the world.
From this point of view, everyone can't say who takes advantage, but the United States has paid trillions of dollars for this, so the United States has lost a lot on the whole!
Iraq is similar......
I don't know how many American GIs have gone crazy after more than ten years of cold shooting.
Listening to Yang Fan's judgment, Zhao Sheng nodded, "The United States is much weaker than it was thirty years ago......
Yang Fan couldn't say that he was gloating, but he didn't have any sympathy and said, "Since the United States began to focus on finance and light on industry after World War II, I only think that the bitter fruits of sheep shearing all over the world have begun to enter a bumper harvest period." ”
Zhao Sheng thought for a while and asked uncertainly, "Hollowing out the industry?" ”
The hollowing out of European and American industries is not a new phenomenon, and for people of insight, the signs can be seen a long time ago.
Whether it is the Asian Four Little Tigers or the Four Little Tigers, it is essentially a process of capacity transfer, but now this capacity transfer has basically been taken over by China.
"Yes!" Yang Fan nodded, "The Internet can't save the United States, and the only opportunity for the United States now is to seize the opportunity of the Internet to follow up on the industrial intelligence represented by the Internet of Things and other unmanned ones to rise again, otherwise the United States will inevitably decline." ”
"Is this what Sail is doing?"
Zhao Sheng is also worthy of being one of the elites in China, and he can see at a glance what Qihang wants to do.
What big data, cloud computing, is also preparing for industrial intelligence and unmanned. In other words, if the industry wants to achieve real intelligence, unmanned must grow on the fertile soil for sufficient development in data and computing.
The preparations for the Qihang mobile phone flagship store in San Francisco have been completed, and we are waiting for Yang Fan to open it in the next few days!
Not only San Francisco, but also Los Angeles and Seattle flagship stores are ready to be completed. Compared with the East Coast of the United States, with the development of Silicon Valley, the strength of the West Coast of the United States is much stronger.
The entire West Coast of the United States is only less populated and less prosperous than the East Coast, but in terms of personal wealth, the West is much stronger than the East.
Take a look at a few of the big cities in the west......
Whether it is Los Angeles, or the urban agglomeration of Northern California, even the area around Portland, which is the main population concentration of Gangler in North Russia, and the area around Seattle, the main population concentration of HSD, are among the wealthier areas in the United States, and most of the top IT companies in the United States are either in Silicon Valley or Seattle.
And apart from these areas, there aren't many people on the West Coast......
The entire West Coast is sunshine, sandy beaches, good climate, good natural conditions, low pollution, and economic vitality in the eyes of Americans.
Therefore, the activities of Qihang on the west coast are not weaker than those in the east, anyway, no matter which city in the west is not bad, it basically belongs to the target market of Qihang mobile phones, and the difference is that there are only fewer cities.
Back in San Francisco, of course, meeting James is indispensable.
Seeing James, Yang Fan first thanked him, "Thank you for the car." ”
James waved his hand, "Something less than a million dollars, trivial, and thank you for bringing in a bunch of rich people from Texas!" ”
A hundred years ago, Houston had a mostly unimpressed impression on Americans.
In terms of domestic division, it is a first- and fifth-tier broken city, and even people who went to Houston 50 years ago probably think that Houston is hot, mediocre, and ugly. And the whole of Texas seems to be cowboys except cowboys, which is a vast and inhospitable plain.
But in the past half century, Houston, Dallas and other cities have directly erupted......
Saying that Houston is a space city, what space shuttles, rockets are more famous, in fact, its dominant industry has always been energy.
Well, with the help of excellent ports, a lot of oil from the Middle East is also through large oil tankers around the Cape of Good Hope, across the South Atlantic, along South America, Central America to Houston. Houston is also the center of the excellent oil resources around the Gulf of Mexico, so it is not surprising that Houston alone accounts for more than one-fifth of the entire U.S. petroleum refining.
Almost all of the top oil companies in the United States, including the world's oil majors, are headquartered in Houston......
Therefore, many Americans look at Texas, especially the rich people in Houston, and the rich people in China look at SX, and they feel that they are all coal bosses.
People all over the world have similar ideas in many ways......
Yang Fan smiled and asked, "What, it seems that the business is going well?" ”
James nodded lightly, "The funds you promised to set sail for the mobile phone are enough." ”
"Awesome!"
Yang Fan praised from the bottom of his heart that hundreds of millions of dollars can be raised in a short period of time, and James has really grown up in Silicon Valley in recent years. remembered that when he first came to Silicon Valley in '99, James and his gang had to grit their teeth when they scraped together more than 10 million.
Now not only do we have a large number of high-quality shares in hand, but it is enough to raise hundreds of millions of dollars in just over a month...... It's amazing!
James, "......"
"Well, it's all thanks to you, right?" James laughed and said, "There's no need to point these out every time, right?" ”
Of course, James knows who he is because of the doubling of his net worth in recent years.
Two or three years ago, he did have a net worth of tens of millions, but after removing the fixed assets of real estate or something, plus the shares that he was reluctant to let go of for a while, there was really not much activity capital.
However, in the past two years, Google has gone around in circles, and Nasdaq has then made a handful of high-tech stocks.
Now in addition to holding some shares of various companies that set sail, there are some companies such as Google and Apple, and it is really not a pressure to scrape together tens of millions of cash. really calculates the net worth, and the $500 million has gone up.
But compared to the evil guy in front of him, it doesn't seem to be enough to see.
What the outside world estimates his net worth of two or three billion!
Where's the calf......
An expedition is now worth three billion dollars.
PayPal now dares to call more than one billion on eBay, why doesn't the expedition dare to call three billion?
However, the high premium half a year in advance is only two or three billion valuation of PayPal shares, who knows why they dare to call one billion now...... The expedition is considered to have broken out, but what about the more ruthless outbreak?
Still in the outbreak period, Qihang mobile phone has created tens of millions of dollars in profits in two months, and the price of Qihang mobile phone is billions?
Yang Fan began to bury his shares everywhere two or three years ago, others don't know, but a lot of it is through James to find someone to handle it, can he still not know?
In addition to the expedition is slightly less, Yang Fan accounts for 60% of the entire system of Qihang, and waits for another year or two, waiting for what TX and BD in China to set sail in the United States, and the guy in his early twenties in front of him is worth tens of billions.
Well......
Awesome!
Who the hell is Yang Fan talking about?
Thinking about it, James said speechlessly, "Our group of investors now has more than a billion assets, even if there are no such Texas rich people, it is not difficult to raise hundreds of millions of funds." It's you! ”
Their wave of investors is now regarded as an expedition or a sailing system, and it is already a well-known scale in the Silicon Valley venture capital circle.
The venture capital circle is not like Goldman Sachs, Da Mo and other investment banks, many of us rely on personal funds, rather than customer funds, and the strength is much smaller.
……#……
Well, Merry Christmas to you all again!
Hey, happy you will never understand a bank card, ID card double loss, is reporting the loss, and the man who has little money on his body has the pain of powerlessness when he meets his sister on Christmas Eve to invite Christmas dinner!
And then yesterday turned grief and anger into strength......
Come together in the morning, why didn't I remember to ask someone to borrow money...... So turn grief and anger into strength again!
So although these two days are three watches, they are all big chapters, and the number of words is usually four or even five watches!
How about the story? (To be continued.) )
