Chapter 339 Private Matter - Monopolizing the Mobile Phone Industry?
Tesla, in another world, mass-produced more than one pure electric sports car, also because of demand.
Wenming is naturally able to manufacture various types of pure electric vehicles, in addition to two-wheeled electric vehicles, four-wheeled business cars, coupes, sports cars, SUVs, MPVs, pickups, and even trucks Wenming can also be made.
The battery technology and motor technology he mastered far surpassed Tesla in another world. In addition to these two technologies, the most attractive thing for pure electric vehicles is the central control system, which has mastered Apple's Wenming, and does not even need to design the central control system by itself.
In the final analysis, the most critical place for pure electric vehicles is the battery, which has mastered the nuclear fuel cell technology and has been ahead of the world in battery technology for a decade and a half.
"Then let's make a city-class SUV first."
After listening to the report, Wen Ming made a decision, and it was considered to be a city-level SUV. Although his technology can make a pure electric off-road vehicle with off-road performance no less than that of a fuel off-road vehicle, the cost will rise, and few people can accept it when it is passed on to consumers. Second, the charging pile of pure electric vehicles is a trouble, in the case of no thorough popularization, where can users go off-road and run out of power?
City-level SUVs do not have these problems, and Tesla has begun to build fast charging piles in many major cities, not only in the United States, but also in many other countries. Wen Ming's goal is to make his fast charging station an existence comparable to a certain petrochemical and a certain oil.
After the huge amount of money is smashed, the harvest is also very obvious, at least the current users who have purchased Tesla's pure electric vehicles have not yet responded to the after-sales problem of inconvenient charging.
Cage proposed, "Can we start developing pure commercial electric vehicles?" The market for pure commercial vehicles is very extensive, and this part of the users can also afford to buy relatively expensive pure electric vehicles. ”
Tesla's development in another world is relatively slow, the main reason is the lack of production capacity, it is difficult to buy Tesla pure electric vehicles in stock, and the delivery time is often calculated in months. And the reason for the lack of production capacity is that they don't have money.
Although he successfully went public, some of the cash-out money was taken by Elon Mascu and used to develop his space career.
Moreover, Tesla's pure electric vehicles in another world are not as good as the pure electric vehicles launched by Wenming in terms of quality, so the sales are not as hot as Wenming's Tesla cars. In addition, the technical difficulties have not been solved, the cost remains high, and the profit has naturally decreased a lot.
But these problems are not a problem for Wen Ming.
His Tesla pure electric car is of good quality, low cost, high selling price, and naturally high profits. He has no other needs other than the last time he bought a stake in Facebook, when he used the money on Tesla's books.
Therefore, his Tesla can continue to invest in its own factories to increase its supply capacity. This is also why, when Wen Ming said that he wanted to develop a pure electric urban SUV, Cage also proposed to develop a pure business pure electric vehicle.
With production capacity, it is natural to vigorously develop new models.
Wen Ming said: "If there is no problem with the production capacity, you can start research and development and production, as for the technical difficulties, you remember, you must send it here as soon as possible and hand it over to me." ”
The last sentence was said by Wen Ming to the current head of Tesla's R&D department, he didn't have time to go to Tesla's headquarters to do research, and if there was a problem, he would naturally take it to Jurassic Island to solve it for him.
The person in charge of Tesla's R&D department naturally agrees with 10,000, and he only has a share of his boss's R&D capabilities.
After talking about some of Tesla's development plans, this wave of meetings also ended.
But Cage didn't leave, and the Sith, who had left earlier, came in.
After the two of them sat down, Wen Ming knocked on the table and said, "Now let's talk about the point, Cage, how did you go about acquiring Nokia's shares in the hands of the three deceased shareholders of Nokia by leaving the company." ”
The previous meetings were all official matters, and the current meetings are Wen Ming's private affairs.
Cage replied: "I have reached a preliminary agreement with two of them, but at the moment Nokia's market value has been falling, and I suggest waiting a little longer." Another reason is that you used too much cash when you bought a stake in Facebook. So, the cash you have at your disposal is actually a bit insufficient. ”
When he bought Facebook's stake before, Wen Ming originally only wanted to use $5 billion to get it, but because of an accident, he ended up paying a total of $10.05 billion in cash. Although it is far beyond the previous preparation, the harvest is also very large.
Wen Ming didn't ask him how much money he could mobilize now, because he also wanted to wait, the Android market is still developing, and it has not yet reached the point where non-Android must be IOS. So, he can wait until Nokia's market value drops a little more.
Sith didn't know about the separate task that Wen Ming gave Cage, and asked curiously, "Didn't you say that we would buy Nokia's mobile phone business?" Now again...... Do you want to repair the plank road in the light and dark? ”
Wen Ming laughed and said, "Sith, why did you start learning Chinese culture too?" You're a very good word, though. ”
Sith smiled, he was still Wen Ming's elder in name, so it was naturally impossible for him to explain that he was trying to pat Wen Ming's ass, and said: "In other words, you want to use us as a cover to achieve your personal goal of acquiring Nokia's mobile phone business?" ”
Wen Ming nodded and said, "Yes, first of all, Apple is not my own at present, and the shareholders are Teresa Roy, Bill Gates, and Li Jiacheng." Second, if I can buy Nokia's mobile phone business, the benefits I will create in the future will not be much lower than Apple's. Finally, as both of you know, I'm used to being in control and not used to having someone meddle in my decisions. ”
The last time he bought a stake in Facebook, Mr. Li used his Facebook stake to buy a small stake in Apple in exchange for a huge amount of cash. Therefore, Apple now has 4 shareholders, of course, this is not a shareholder similar to Sith who owns option shares, their shares only have the right to dividends, not ownership.
Normally, the equity incentive system of an enterprise will be directly given to employees after a certain number of years of service. Ke Wenming's company does not have this statement, and his equity incentive system only gives the right to dividends, not ownership.
But no one has any doubts, because Apple's valuation has risen too fast, and Wen Ming is a fool to give it. Moreover, Apple's profitability is very high, and their dividend rights can be reaped a lot every year.
Sith pondered for a moment and asked, "I don't doubt your vision, I'm just curious how Nokia can make profits that are not lower than Apple's?" You know, we now have 90% of the hardware profits in the global mobile phone business. ”
90% is removed, and the rest is naturally 10%.
Sith felt that it was impossible for Wen Ming to harm Apple's interests for the benefit of Nokia. After all, Wen Ming holds more than 90% of the equity in Apple, and no one will object to saying that Apple is his. Teresa Roy, for example, would never object to Wen Ming's words now.
Wen Ming smiled: "That's because you can't see how many sales of Android phones will be in the future." And the profit of Android phones does not depend on hardware alone. ”
Wenming wants to copy Samsung's development path, but not just Samsung. Samsung, another world, does not dominate sales in China, and that is because of the rise of various domestic machines.
But in this world, the products of the companies under Wenming's name can be said to be domestic.
So he doesn't just want to copy Samsung, but also Huawei.
EVEN, COPY THE ROAD OF XIAOMI, VIVO, OPPO.
Wen Ming is not afraid of anyone than quality, Wen Ming is not afraid of anyone in the price war, and Wen Ming is not good at marketing methods, but he has money, and if he has money, he can invite capable people.
Wen Ming's goal is to monopolize the market, although it is unlikely to be done, but he is confident that in the future non-Android must Ios era, let Nokia become the hegemon again, but this hegemony is limited to Android phones.
Although Sith could guess Wen Ming's Ming Xiu Dao and secretly Chen Cang, he couldn't see the future of Android. But it doesn't matter if you don't understand, you can just implement it.
"I know, and I'll follow up on this matter with the head of the investment department in the future, so as not to increase the market value of Nokia because of our acquisition intentions."
