625. Incredible
Huo Bufan said with a smile: "The reason is very simple, I want to leave room for the downstream industrial chain." With New Hope's current level of technology, we can actually do all the industries ourselves. But if there is no market competition, the market will never progress. If you don't make progress, you will go backwards. Only those who are full of competitors can extract the essence from the infinite wisdom of all people for my use. So, I'm giving up some of my profits to fish farming. And while we only provide technology, that doesn't mean we don't need money. When they use our technology, they agree to our networking protocol. To put it simply, all the people who will produce smart homes in the future, as long as they use our technology, are helping us promote the market. When our technology takes over the world, it's incredibly easy to do anything. Moreover, in this process, we have saved a lot of promotion costs, and the things saved are not to say that they can make up for it by occupying a smart home market. β
Tang Zhongwei didn't seem to understand, she only understood one thing, Huo Bufan wanted the whole world.
When New Hope's technology spreads all over the world, it is equivalent to attracting billions of traffic.
With the support of such traffic, the word market is no longer important.
The high-level officials of Tang International heard some meaning, and immediately ran over and said with a smile: "Mr. Li's idea is really earth-shattering, crying ghosts and gods." Such a brilliant strategy, we would never have imagined. β
"However, New Hope can't look at smart homes, and we are still very interested in Tang's International. Especially the things in this laboratory, if Mr. Li agrees, I hope that in the future, we at Tang's International can become the first company to apply New Hope technology! β
Huo Bufan said with a smile: "If I promise you now, it seems too perfunctory, and the company is not my own, and there are countless shareholders to be responsible." Even if I am not responsible to the shareholders, I have to inform my wife. Therefore, whether Tang's International can obtain the right to apply the first technology, I can't agree immediately for the time being. β
The senior management of Tang's International was a little disappointed in their hearts, but there was a smart one, and they immediately said: "It's easy to say, the relationship between Mr. Li and Mr. Ning has always been a model in the industry, and it is appropriate to inform him." You can tell Mr. Ning that as long as we can obtain the right to apply this technology, Tang's International is willing to provide at least 100 billion yuan as a support fund for the experiment! β
Several other Tang International executives opened their mouths, and they subconsciously wanted to stop their companions' promises.
But on second thought, if Tang's International can obtain the right to apply this technology, how much money will be earned back in the future?
The current smart home market has reached as much as 200 billion, and in China, the market penetration rate is only less than one percent.
In other words, in the future, the domestic market alone will have tens of trillions!
Whoever can occupy this market first will be able to get the largest piece of cake from this tens of trillions of markets!
What's more, the smart home itself is, to put it bluntly, an electronic product, which is updated quickly.
This market of tens of trillions does not mean that you will be gone when you sell out, but it will continue to expand over time, and it is a never-ending business.
Just 100 billion, is it expensive to get the priority of market occupancy?
Not expensive at all!
How many top companies are willing to invest hundreds of billions in order to compete for a market.
This account can still be easily understood by the senior management of Tang's International.
So after the initial hesitation, they all readily agreed with their companions' statements.
Huo Bufan smiled and said, "Okay, I'll explain your thoughts to her, there shouldn't be too much of a problem." β
This is what the people of Tang's International want, they are very happy, this visit to the laboratory, the biggest gain may be the opportunity to spend the 100 billion.
This also made Huo Bufan see the background of Tang International, and he used to think that Tang International was not much more powerful than the Huo family, and the difference in assets was at most two or three hundred billion.
But now it seems that Tang International is far more powerful than the Huo family.
At the very least, even if the Huo family's assets are doubled, it will be difficult to immediately come up with more than 100 billion in cash in such a short period of time.
Whether or not there is sufficient cash flow is an indication of the true operating condition of a company.
Many companies seem to be on top of the list, but in fact they have debt ratios as high as 70 or 80 percent.
Such a company, even if it has trillions of assets, is in vain, and if it is not well managed, it will go out of business at any time. Because of the problem in the capital chain, they simply can't repay so many debts.
Therefore, Tang's International is indeed a good company worthy of in-depth cooperation!
With the possibility of this cooperation, the atmosphere between the two sides is more harmonious.
After visiting the laboratory, Huo Bufan arranged for them to taste the food, which was a special food delivered from all over the country.
At present, New Hope's overseas headquarters is also starting to establish a corresponding logistics and distribution system.
According to the domestic experience, and then according to the foreign environment to change the situation, according to the plan, within three years, the logistics system should be initially formed, and fully mature within five years. And within ten years, it will become the world's top logistics company!
Huo Bufan doesn't look down on the smart home industry, but he has a soft spot for the logistics system.
Because he believes that no matter what product, under the general trend of globalization in the future, logistics is definitely the most important and the most critical link.
If you buy a handmade bag 10,000 kilometers away, do you hope to see it in the next second?
Do you think a restaurant on the other side of the Atlantic is delicious, and do you want to have a hot meal a few minutes after placing your order?
The ultimate goal of New Hope's logistics is to let everyone in the world feel the rocket-like delivery speed.
Only by doing so can globalization be truly realized.
Otherwise, according to the current delivery speed of more than two weeks across the Atlantic, customers will have to wait impatiently.
Logistics has always been an important factor that restricts the sale of products!
Therefore, the potential of this industry is huge, and the more prosperous other markets, the more money it can make, which is much more potential than smart home.
Huo Bufan's business does not look at how much money he can make in the short term, but at the overall valuation and future development potential.
If an industry has to stop cooking in less than two years, even if it can make a trillion in a year, he will not touch it. That's a waste of your time and energy, life is too short to waste.
What New Hope wants to do is a great industry that has never been done before or after it, and making quick money is never the first priority.
Considering the secrecy of the laboratory, Huo Bufan did not take these people around, but took them to experience a brainwave access to the virtual world.
As the host, Huo Bufan naturally wanted to go in.
After this period of optimization, today's brainwave access communication has almost completely failed to feel the stimulation of nerves. Even the feeling of dizziness has been relieved by half.
Now you only feel a slight shock in your head, and then your eyes go dark, and when you open your eyes again, it is already another world.
Since the virtual world has not yet been opened to the outside world, only the basic framework has been built, so it is still as desolate as the last time I came.
The top management of Tang International was teleported to different locations according to their personal wishes.
Huo Bufan and Tang Zhongwei came to the vicinity of the Qinling Mountains, in front of the log cabin where Huo Jiaming was.
Compared to the last time, there are still a lot of changes here.
What Huo Bufan saw before was a wasteland, but now, there are flowers and plants everywhere, and a few towering ancient trees are growing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Tang Zhongwei's face was full of novelty, such a world made her so interested.
"Let's go, Garmin is over there, let's go over and see what he's doing." Huo Bufan greeted.
"Okay." Tang Zhongwei responded casually, turned her head, and subconsciously glanced at Huo Bufan, and was stunned for a moment.
Because in front of her, it is not the familiar Li Shuheng, but the ex-fiancΓ© who is almost forgotten.
When she saw this familiar and unfamiliar face, Tang Zhongwei was stunned in place for a long time and didn't come back to her senses.
"What, don't you remember me?" Huo Bufan said with a smile.
Tang Zhongwei covered her mouth with one hand and pointed at him with the other: "You, you...... Why are you ...... here?"
"I brought you in, of course I'm here." Huo Bufan replied.
"You brought me in?" Tang Zhongwei's face was stunned, as if she couldn't understand the meaning of this sentence.
Huo Bufan smiled and said, "For specific things, you can ask Jia Ming, and he should give you a satisfactory explanation." β
