Chapter 1617: Preparation (2)

The University of Cambridge will start in March.

As a doctoral student, Han Xuan didn't care if he went late, the teacher couldn't teach too much, mainly relying on him to teach himself, and called the dean of Trinity College in advance, and the other party asked him not to forget the upcoming University League Games.

Anya was also going back to the Royal Academy of Art recently, and Han Xuan made a special call to Mrs. Cecilia, saying that she would hold a New Year's gift for her daughter and then send her to the United Kingdom.

It's just a trivial matter, Lady Cecilia, as a professor, promised to inform the school, it doesn't matter if she goes a week or two late, in fact, Anya is not an official student of the Royal Academy of Art now, her status is more like an auditor.

Cousin Wang Mengmeng went to Xueshan Middle School to attend classes, and in the past two days, she often called and harassed Anya, asking her to go back to middle school as well, saying that she was bored over there alone, and was taught a lesson by Han Xuan, so she settled down.

Ramirez sent the recorded song to Han Xuan, the arrangement is different from the two songs in the previous life, but it is still a good song, even Fat Ding is addicted to listening to it, shaking his head and meowing all day long.

Invitations to the Rite of Passage have been sent out, and celebrities from all walks of life around the world, as long as they can spare time, have mostly replied that they will be there when the time comes.

For the girl, the coming-of-age ceremony is extraordinary, the more people come and have more status, the more they can show the status of the master, most of them are selling Han Xuan's face, but the family doesn't talk about the two families, so they don't have to care about these small details.

The two buildings on the Bund in Shanghai have recently been completed, which is not a small piece of good news, and it will take some time to renovate.

The person in charge of the Huaxia branch of Snow Mountain Group presided over the topping ceremony, and the news was reported on the news that night, and the title of "the world's second and third" high-rise building was enough to make people excited about it!

The good news from the Pacific Ocean is that there is another one - Huawei mobile phones are also officially on sale after long-term preparations!

It has been a year and a half since the decision to invest in the factory in Pengcheng, and the progress is much slower than Han Xuan imagined, the local situation is special, the workers need training, and it is very troublesome to choose suppliers.

Blueberry mobile phones are of better quality, but after counting tariffs, the high price is not acceptable to most people in China, the emergence of Huawei's low-cost mobile phones, the price has been reduced by about 30%, and it has achieved a hot response as soon as it is on the market, almost how many are sold, and it will always be out of stock!

The buyers parked the truck outside the assembly plant and pulled it away every time it was shipped, and it is worth mentioning that the name of the assembly plant was Foxconn......

This subsidiary of the Baodao Hon Hai Precision Group entered the mainland as early as the 80s to carry out business, and the annual growth rate of performance has remained above 50 percent, and Han Xuan invested in it in 1997 using a shell company in the Maldives, holding only about 7 percent of the shares.

Knowing that Huawei was preparing to produce mobile phones, in April 1998, Mr. Terry Gou personally came to the United States to find Han Xuan and proposed the idea of "global assembly and delivery" to Han Xuan.

It refers to the assembly of products on a global scale to ensure that the goods are delivered to the customer's designated location with "the right product, the right time, the right quality, and the right amount".

To this end, Foxconn has carried out global logistics layout and channel construction in line with customer needs to achieve the goal of "having goods in stock and zero inventory when not goods".

To put it bluntly, it is to help assemble the product, and then send it to the designated place, the company does not have to worry about it after designing the product, and Foxconn will complete the rest.

The name of this company is familiar to Han Xuan, and Apple, which can make the door in the previous life, has maintained long-term cooperation with it, and I have to say that Foxconn's "global assembly and delivery" project does have unique characteristics.

After calculation, it was found that the production cost could be reduced by about four to seven percent, which was enough for Han Xuan to agree to his request for cooperation and achieve a win-win situation.

Seeing the bright prospects and terrifying profits of the mobile phone market, recently, large, medium and small mobile phone manufacturers have sprung up.

Steve Jobs' Apple is also on the list, and it is still having a hard time, but it has turned a profit last year, with a turnover increase of 16 percent, which led to a slight increase in market value.

Microsoft announced the announcement of the development of mobile phones, which was a bit unexpected by Han Xuan, but it thundered and rained, and more than a year has passed, and no mobile phone products have been listed.

From time to time, the news of the intention to acquire Nokia is also released, and again, there is no substantial progress at all, but it seems that the two companies are cooperating with each other to sing a double reed, using fake news to increase the company's stock price, and the effect is really good.

Han Xuan is determined to win the mobile phone market, Blueberry Group invested a full 2.1 billion US dollars last year for research and development of various new products, Ihope music player still maintains a dominant position in the market, and the market share of laptop Bebook is also steadily rising.

The annual new product launch conference will be held in March, and the flagship mobile phone N99 has greatly improved the camera, built-in memory, display and other hardware, and the fool semi-intelligent system has also been upgraded.

has already gotten the N99 mobile phone in advance, and every time Han Xuan calls recently, the reporters are staring at him like wolves, and it can only be said that the Blueberry Group has done too well in secrecy, and no clear pictures have been circulated until now......

*****************************

February 1999 was only twenty-eight days.

The numbers on the electronic clock screen slowly get bigger, the seconds skip from "59", and the date displayed is already March 1.

Han Xuan was sitting at the desk and writing something, when he raised his head and looked at the time, and found that it was already late.

I simply put down the pen and sorted out the manuscript of the tenth finale of "Harry Potter", which was about to be made into a movie by my grandfather's Imperial Pictures Company, and it has entered the casting stage.

It doesn't matter who the male protagonist is in the end, he likes the little girl named Emma Watson, you can see the shadow of Natalie Portman from her, the two have similar personalities, remember that Emma Watson's parents both graduated from Cambridge University, and it is not difficult to find her.

Thinking of Natalie, Han Xuan found that he hadn't contacted her for a long time.

Stretch by the window and see the bustling city of New York at night, with many high-rise buildings lights out, and the city never seems to rest, and for many people, the nightlife is just beginning.

took out his mobile phone and found Natalie's name from the long list of contacts, Han Xuan sent a message to her, writing: "Hey, I have a movie here, do you want to play a supporting role?" ”
