1631 Industry Standards

Andy Morgan's question is difficult to answer. If the answer is: no interest, his previous statement will be in vain.

If answered: Interested. Jinghua is not short of funds, and listing on the NASDAQ is essentially plundering the listed capital.

Andy Morgan drank the juice softly, waiting for Lu Jing's answer. JPMorgan Chase Chairman Frank Pittman called him the day before yesterday and brought up the old story.

Lu Jing was very calm.

It is certainly impossible to get Jinghua to be listed on the NASDAQ.

Lu Jing chuckled and asked, "Andy, it seems that you don't agree with Nokia's point of view." How long do you think the S7 can be ahead of other mobile phone manufacturers? A year? Two years?

And how long does it take for Jinghua to go public? Half? A year? ”

Don't Jinghua has just been listed, and there are mobile phones on the market that are comparable to S7. So how long can the capital on the NASDAQ stock market actually enjoy the windfall profits of the S7 mobile phone?

Andy Morgan pondered for a moment and asked, "Lu, what do you think?" ”

Lu Jing smiled and raised a finger, "1 year." Or even less. ”

In the previous life, it is said that not long after the iphone came out, Huaqiangbei had a copycat machine and a similar mobile phone made with MTK modules. Knockoff apples.

As far as Lu Jing knows now, Apple's Steve Jobs has launched the iPhone project. In the previous life, Apple released the iPhone in 2007. Now that the S7 is coming out, it may stimulate Apple's progress.

The progress of Android, which is 100% controlled by the Rainbow Fund, is still a little slow, and it is expected that it will not produce results until a year and a half later.

Andy Morgan was silent.

If Jinghua's excess profits can only last for a year, he will not be interested in promoting Jinghua's listing. Figures of his caliber make investments. layout, at least more than three years. In this way, profits can be maximized.

Lu Jing knew what he was saying, and Andy Morgan listened. He added another fire and said, "Andy." It is better to put the profits of smart phones in the capital market and share them with everyone, so it is better for one person to enjoy them exclusively.

As far as I know, Apple is working on smartphones. They will be able to come up with a prototype very quickly. You can plan ahead to buy Apple shares. ”

Andy Morgan was slightly moved, and said with a smile: "Lu, you are really a first-class lobbyist. I'm very interested in your mention. ”

Lu Jing smiled calmly, and added another fire, "Andy, since everyone expects you to lead them to make profits on the smartphone." Your acquisition of Apple's stake on your own may make some people unhappy.

I have a mention yΓ¬. Would you like to hear it? ”

Andy Morgan shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile, "Who can say no to Lu's TiyΓ¬?" ”

Lu Jing smiled slightly and said: "Jinghua HX system and Apple system are both closed systems, and external personnel will not be allowed to participate in research and development. I also have a company that develops operating systems for mobile devices. The code can be open source. ”

Andy Morgan didn't understand the technical stuff, a little bit and asked, "What company?" ”

β€œandroid。” Lu Jing whispered a name that was incomparable in his previous life. And then he said: "

Developers from all over the world can participate. Hardware companies, software companies. All mobile phone manufacturers can choose Android as their own system. The source code is publicly available on the web. Free to download.

What Android has to do is release the standard version and maintain the updated version. Set interface standards with hardware and software vendors. ”

Andy Morgan understood, and clasped his hands together in front of his chest, "Lu." Do you mean that Andriod is going to be the industry standard for mobile operating systems? ”

First-class enterprises do standards, second-rate enterprises do products, and third-rate enterprises do marketing.

How to use industry standards to make money, as an American. Andy Morgan has been familiar with such a business environment for a long time.

Lu Jing nodded and replied affirmatively: "Yes." ”

Jinghua's HX system and ios system are both closed systems. Not affected by Andriod's industry standards. However, most manufacturers have to accept the Android standard.

For example, Samsung has achieved the first place in the market in the era of smart phones. But no one would think that Samsung's system is the industry standard. The standard is still the official version released by Android.

Andy Morgan laughs: "Very interesting idea. If Android becomes the standard for mobile operating systems worldwide. Those who are ready to get a piece of the pie don't have much to say.

Lu, how many shares can you sell to me? ”

Lu Jing smiled, drank the juice and said, "20%." It's up to you to decide how the equity is distributed. ”

If Lu Jing wants to promote the Android system to the world, he must become a company with "American roots". Without the recognition of first-class electronic companies and markets in Europe and the United States, it is funny to say that global standards are standard.

Just look at what happened to Samsung. Who made Americans the global boss now?

Andy Morgan shook his head, "Too little. A 20% stake is not enough to guarantee my voice in Android. ”

He was not interested in opening up a market for Lu Jing.

Lu Jingdao: "Andy, this is just the payment to you. The follow-up development of Android is still funded by Hehualai.

As for the right to speak, if I hold 80% of the shares, I believe that many partners will be dissatisfied. My equity will be sold gradually. I need to get an adequate return on my investment. This is the reward I deserve.

In terms of discourse, I think your influence in European and American companies is enough to determine the choice of Android companies in standards. ”

It's not that Lu Jing doesn't want to control the company. But for Android to become a world-class standard, he must give up control. Because, the rules of the game in the current world are set by the Americans. It's a harsh reality.

If the Chinese were the boss of the world, Lu Jing's 0.1 percent stake would not be given to Andy Morgan. He can promote the Andriod standard on a global scale on his own. Hehua is not short of these billions of dollars of investment.

Of course, that's just YY. Lu Jing will not be too ambitious.

However, he will use the shares of Android to exchange enough benefits for himself. And to maintain a certain voice in the Android company.

Andy Morgan smiled in relief. "Okay, I'm persuaded by you again." Land. You're too shrewd. ”

Lu Jing smiled and sucked the juice.

Andy Morgan asked the waiter to change the mellow head and come right away. After a few drinks with Lu Jing, he said, "I don't care about you and the Asia-Pacific Foundation." I just want my friends to get along. And Chairman Takeshita and you still have business cooperation, obviously my understanding is wrong. ”

Lu Jing got up and refilled Andy Morgan's drink. He knew that the small gap between him and Andy Morgan had been bridged.

As for Jinghua's inability to go public, it will naturally be blocked by Andy Morgan. Today's lobbying is complete.

He didn't expect that the S7's booming sales would attract the greedy eyes of Wall Street. Fortunately, Marvin Krone reported in advance. Otherwise, today's lobby is highly likely to fail.

Andy Morgan raised his glass and toasted Lu Jing again, and said, "Lu, Jessica likes S7 very much. Love. You can't take on the work of the machine. I want to order a premium S7 for her. ”

Lu Jing understood what Andy Morgan meant, and sipped the wine. said: "Of course." The S7 costs $480. Jinghua has $30,000 for sale in the S7 Seiko Edition. Just modify it according to your requirements. ”

Lu Jing didn't think that the rich guests on the night of the 10th would use $480 products. He had already prepared a $30,000 product. The S7 can be both a beautiful craft and a luxury.

Andy Morgan said excitedly, "That's good." I need to think about it. Think about it. Have you been in Palm Beach lately? ”

Lu Jingdao: "I will leave Palm Beach for Los Angeles tomorrow afternoon. ”

The Spring Festival is approaching, and he is preparing to return to China. Before returning to China, he would travel alone with Bai Lu. The route is from Miami to Los Angeles. The planned time is five days.

"Okay, I'll visit you at home in the evening, and we'll talk in detail." Andy Morgan Road.

After Lu Jing and Andy Morgan said goodbye, they returned to Villa 87 by car. Blue sky and white clouds under coconut trees. The breeze blows into the car window, which is refreshing. Lu Jing's mind couldn't help but have Andy Morgan's impatient expression.

This is really suspicious. His cousin is like a boy in love. Hasn't he caught up with Jessica Fulming?

Truth be told, Andy Morgan is handsome. The figure is well maintained. Wealth and power can be ranked among the top five in the United States. Proper diamond king.

Of course, age is his disadvantage. He was 46 years old and Jessica was 27 years old. It is not known whether age creates a generation gap. After all, Jessica has no worries about food and clothing. There is no need to value wealth.

Lu Jing completed the purpose of coming to Palm Beach and solved the problem of relisting. In a good mood, gossiping about Andy Morgan, Jessica Fulming. With a lot of questions, I returned to Villa 87. shared his joy with Feng Bailu, Xu Xue, Song Yuqi, and Ye Jingyu waiting in the villa.

…

…

New York, in an apartment at 600 73rd Street, Manhattan. The moon is in the sky.

Stuart Gauld and AIG (American International Group) director Edmund Abbott drinking in the living room. The atmosphere was a bit somber.

Drank two glasses. Stuart Gauld couldn't help but complain: "Why did Chairman Pittman change his tune? The listing of Jinghua mobile phone is the trend of the times. ”

Edmund Abbott was a little more well-informed than Stuart, his narrow eyes narrowed and he smiled. "It was Mr. Morgan who said hello." Mr. Morgan looked for another high-growth company. Android.

At present, there are 5% of about 50 million shares to be distributed to everyone. Stuart, we have to join forces. ”

Stuart's round fat face was stunned, and then he said, "It's natural." Would you like to say hello from Sam's side? ”

Edmund Abbott sneered, "He's been getting close to Marvin Krone lately. You tell me? ”

After all, Sam McCormick and Marvin Crown are families from the same Chicago consortium.

…

…

At the same time, the Langham Place Hotel, Fifth Avenue, New York. The distinguished box is staggered. Shuichi Takeshita and Renard Rockefeller whispered by the window, avoiding the crowd at the party.

"That's it?" Shuichi Takeshita's elegant face was filled with regret. He had just learned about Andy Morgan's decision.

Renard Rockefeller nodded and said with a meaningful smile: "Lu has always been very popular with women. He has a good personal relationship with Jessica Fulming. ”

Renard thinks that Lu Jing must have asked Jessica Fulin to help intercede. At the level of him and Andy Morgan, billions of dollars in profits are really not as important as the smile of the beloved woman.

Shuichi Takeshita smiled and shook his head, "It's a pity." ”

Jinghua is the core enterprise of Hehua Consortium. If Lu Jing loses Jinghua, he will lose his basic position in the Hehua consortium.

It's a pity. (To be continued......)
