Chapter 127: Hamdan's Ambition
What is happening in the exhibition area of the Coastline Company, where the Huaxia Pavilion is located, is shared on social networks through short videos taken by tourists at the scene, and reported first-hand by media reporters on the spot.
The holographic technology of the shoreline company made a stunning appearance, like a hurricane sweeping the world at the fastest speed.
Visitors at the scene snapped with their mobile phones, and videos of the coastline display area gradually spread on the Internet, and major media outlets were also using exaggerated headlines to push headlines.
It was already night in the Silicon Valley tech circle, but at this moment, many Silicon Valley bigwigs were woken up from their sleep and held an emergency meeting overnight.
The listed companies in the domestic display business, as soon as the World Expo opened, the coastline company display area was shocked at the moment, the stocks of these listed companies immediately plummeted, and the leading enterprises, including Jingdongfang, fell on the same day, and the market value once fell to 102 billion yuan, and it is conceivable that if the market opens the next day, it will definitely fall below the 100 billion yuan mark.
The major earthquake in the display screen industry is not only the fall of Jingdongfang, Samsung, LG, and other overseas companies are definitely not spared.
Even, some manufacturers of VR equipment have also been implicated, the "rhythm lightsaber" experienced by tourists in the exhibition area of the coastline company, without any peripherals can achieve a better effect than VR, the key is that the VR equipment will not be as diverse as the experience products in the coastline exhibition area.
The originally hot VR industry gives people the feeling that it has changed from a sunrise industry to a sunset industry overnight, and countless investors may lose their money.
Because of the interactive experience that VR electronic devices can do, Coastline Company's computing holographic products can do, and it can also do countless functions that VR can't achieve.
Many listed VR companies have all plummeted in stock prices.
It's night in the Western Hemisphere, but countless investors or companies are particularly afraid of tomorrow at this moment, and it is probably inevitable that Nasdaq technology stocks will usher in a wave of blood decline.
Now that the market expectation has been set, there is no doubt that the entire market will plummet, and the only thing I don't know is how much it will plummet. And Microsoft may have to bear the brunt, and even if Microsoft, which has a market value of more than 890 billion, falls below double digits on the same day, Wall Street will not be surprised.
It wouldn't hurt if Shoreline was just hitting Microsoft's Windows operating system business, which now accounts for less than 7% of Microsoft's revenue.
But it is clear that the impact of the coastline company is not only the Windows business, but also the game business and the Office office software business, these two businesses now occupy a double-digit proportion in Microsoft, which can be said to be pivotal.
There are many people who pay attention to the technology show of the Coastline Company at the Dubai World Expo, and they all predict that there will definitely be a good start, but they never expected that it will open up as soon as it comes up, and the damage of this ultimate move is still so explosive, and it comes with AOE damage.
At the Dubai World Expo, as time went by, more and more tourists rushed to the Huaxia Pavilion through various channels, and the coastline display area inside was so popular that there were no friends, and the exhibition area and the outside line were overcrowded.
Because the entire exhibition area is actually a large independent flat space, those projected walls, warning lines, and sidewalks are all illusory holographic projections, and there is actually no physical collision with them, which causes some unintentional tourists to break into the quarantine area of the game experience.
The main reason why the exhibition area of the coastline company is so popular is that tourists can participate in the interactive experience, which is a condition that many other exhibition halls and exhibition areas do not have.
"The feedback from the scene is not bad!" Ye Hua, who was behind the scenes, couldn't help but smile when he saw the landscape of the display area in front of the stage.
Other exhibition halls can basically only be seen, photographed, group photos or something like that, but the coastline display area can not only do these things, but also experience it in person, and the popularity is not explosive but abnormal.
Ye Hua stayed behind the scenes of the exhibition area for almost an hour, communicated with Jing Ping and others for a while, and handed over the affairs here to them, while he himself left the exhibition hall from the backstage.
The exhibition area of the Shoreline Company was free of staff interference throughout the whole process, and there were only some security personnel who maintained order, but those were not from the Shoreline Company.
The purpose of this is to allow visitors to experience the fun of exploration on their own, in fact, the function is not fundamentally different from people's common PCs, the same games, the same search engine, the same streaming video.
However, from the two-dimensional flat display with a screen to the three-dimensional display without a screen, it immediately ushered in a qualitative sublimation.
From a two-dimensional plane to a three-dimensional one, it is a subversive innovation and an unprecedented experience.
……
Evening.
In a luxurious room, Crown Prince Hamdan of Dubai is looking at the video footage, which is the video image of the Shoreline Company exhibition area, which is hot and popular, and the noisy discussion is endless.
At this time, Prince Hamdan turned off the video when he saw a middle-aged man approaching, and the room suddenly fell silent.
"Your Royal Highness the Prince, as you might expect, Nasdaq opened with a large area of technology stocks plummeting, of which Microsoft has now plummeted 7%, evaporating $60 billion, and it may fall by double digits if nothing else."
At this time, the time in the United States is almost eleven o'clock, and at this point in time, technology stocks around the world are not wailing, but they have been affected to varying degrees, of which the biggest impact is the global screen hardware development company.
The "big move" of the coastline company is equivalent to a death sentence with a screen display, giving people the feeling that it has suddenly become a sunset industry.
There is no doubt that the screenless era has come, even if the screen-free display will not be completely replaced by the screenless display, but it is basically replaced, but it is just the length of the replacement process, which is the inevitable progress of science and technology, and it is also the inevitable trend of technological upgrading, and no one can stop it.
But the most obvious hit is Microsoft, a supergiant that has lost $60 billion in market value and has not yet bottomed out, a staggering figure.
"In my personal name, I sincerely invite Mr. Ye to come to my private dinner tonight, a special banquet." Prince Hamdan pondered for a moment and then said.
"Yes, Your Highness the Prince."
"Wait a minute." Hamdan stopped him abruptly, and then added, "Invite Princess Shanna too, she probably won't refuse this invitation." ”
"As you wish, Your Highness."
Prince Hamdan gradually fell into deep thought, and after a while, he opened the video again, staring at the crowded exhibition area: "I will definitely prove to the world that I am not only the qualified successor of the Emirate of Dubai, but also the one who can lead Dubai to a brighter and the entire UAE to a more brilliant place." ”
Dubai is one of the seven hereditary emirates of the UAE, the current president of the UAE is held by Khalifa of the Emirate of Abu Dhabi, and Hamdan's father is the current vice president and part-time prime minister.
He is clearly an aspiring Crown Prince of Dubai, or rather ambitious, who wants to lead the entire UAE nation in the future and works tirelessly towards this goal.
"Good sister, you must ...... It's best to fall in love with this young Chinese tycoon. Hamdan muttered to himself, perhaps the current top level of the entire UAE is the most concerned about the development of science and technology, and firmly believes that the future of Dubai and even the UAE only depends on technology, and more importantly, he is still a Chinese.
In the future, the Americans will be unreliable, so they will have to find a new, thick and reliable thigh to hold and plant a seed of friendship first.
Moreover, the Emirate of Abu Dhabi accounts for more than 90% of the oil reserves of the entire UAE, while Dubai's oil reserves are quite small.
Dubai's prosperity is not due to oil, which has grown by 270% in GDP over the past decade, of which only 6% is generated from oil.
And Dubai, as the second of the seven emirates in the United Arab Emirates, has always believed that "when the second place will starve to death", so its development and construction is all-round diversification, opening the canal in the 70s, doing trade in the 80s, and promoting sightseeing tourism in the 90s, Dubai in the 21st century has been a transit center in the Middle East, a sightseeing and shopping city, and a developed tertiary industry.
Over the next decade, Dubai's will depend on how much it embraces technology, hence the current Dubai Expo.
Hamdan firmly believes that Dubai's next 10 years cannot rely on the financial industry, but only on technology.
Ye Hua is so valued by Prince Hamdan because the coastline company he founded represents the future to a large extent, and even, Hamdan looks further and sees that the country behind Ye Hua is also a new future and opportunity to a large extent.
It is true that the United States is now the global boss, but in recent years, this boss has been very incompetent, and he has put the United States first, and his influence in the Asian region has been weakened year by year, and it is not as good as a year after year.
All these factors make Hamdan firmly believe that embracing technology is the future of Dubai and the future of the UAE.
Then Ye Hua, whether in terms of science and technology or his identity as a Chinese, has enough reasons to arouse his great attention.
