Monday, March 29.

Lin Zuhui came to the mainland, and he now often runs around the world, so he plans to buy a private jet. Although he has long been the richest man in China, and this year he has become the richest man in the world, but the Chinese have always been low-key, and so is Lin Zuhui, so the plane has not been on the agenda.

Since he decided to buy a private jet, Lin Zuhui plans to build a Boeing 747 large passenger aircraft for modification at one time; Considering that there will be a waiting period of several years, you will have to buy a Gulfstream private jet and use it first.

As for why not buy Airbus for modification, it is because Airbus has not yet developed a large passenger aircraft to compete with the Boeing 747.

Pengcheng, Nanshan District.

Lin Zuhui came to the Xiaomi Science and Technology Park to feel the charm of science and technology.

To be honest, in addition to electronic consumer products, Lin Zuhui also attaches more importance to: semiconductors, liquid crystal displays, and lithium batteries, but of these three industries, only semiconductors can enter, and the remaining two industries have no chance at present.

For example, LCD screens currently monopolize 95% of the global market, and the other 5% may be in the United States, and even South Korea has just invested. The production line of LCD screens, even if it is the first generation, it is impossible for stupid people to sell it to Hong Kong and Chinese capital now.

But as far as Lin Zuhui knows, in 1994, the LCD screen seemed to be in a trough, and a large number of engineers lost their jobs; South Korea immediately made counter-cyclical investments, poaching stupid engineers, and finally overtook stupid engineers at the end of the 90s. As a result, the stupid people were not happy, and immediately transferred the production line to Taiwan Island at a high price to support its LCD display industry on Taiwan Island.

The mainland BOE only entered this field in 1998, and only acquired a low-generation production line in South Korea in 2001, and after more than ten years of development, it can be regarded as a real foothold.

Hard!

Lin Zuhui plans to let Xiaomi Technology set up a project team next year, dig up some stupid engineers, even if they do research work first, they will occupy the pit first, and when the time is ripe to acquire a production line.

In terms of lithium batteries, it is also said that Ben has just been put into commercial use and occupies an absolute monopoly position.

Hard!

If it's difficult, you have to do it, and next year will also let Xiaomi Technology set up a project department to poach people everywhere for research. For future development, do a good job of preliminary research first.

In the final analysis, the development of semiconductors, liquid crystal displays, lithium batteries, these three industries, may invest hundreds of billions, or even more; Because of this, the reason why the mainland really developed in the previous life may be because it received low-level technology from Japan and South Korea, and then the state supported it, so that it would not be stuck by others, or even surpassed.

Thinking about Huaxia is also very 'miserable', it is always said by some people that science and technology are underdeveloped, but in fact, Huaxia is almost single-handed, developing the world's industrial chain.

For example, the stupid LCD screen, lithium battery, and semiconductor industries were actually developed by the Americans at the beginning; However, the United States will not impose a strict technological ban on the stupid people, and this is why the stupid people will carry forward.

In fact, Little Day is a dog supported by the United States, which can give you food, but also educate you. When Ben semiconductors were developed, the United States supported Taiwan and South Korea, and engaged in a square agreement to train dogs.

Therefore, no matter how stupid Xiao Yue is, he is actually a dog in the United States.

Lin Zuhui asked Xiaomi Technology to lay out semiconductors, LCD screens, and lithium batteries as early as possible, in fact, he was also preparing to use the 'money ability' to acquire some low-end technologies and production lines from Japan and South Korea that day, and then consider overtaking.

Of course, the 'money capacity' comes from there, in addition to Lin Zuhui's 'financial aid', mainly from consumer electronics, as well as raising funds through listing in Hong Kong.

Lin Zuhui came to Zou Kaixuan's office in a low-key manner, and he is now leaving his office without Xiaomi Technology; He will not participate in any activities of Xiaomi Technology, and completely let Zou Kaixuan be in charge.

At present, Lin Zuhui accounts for 80% of the equity of Hong Kong Xiaomi Technology, and the other 20% of the equity is in the hands of Zou Kaixuan.

"How are VCD players selling?" Lin Zuhui sat on the sofa and said.

Zou Kaixuan is naturally sitting on the sofa, how can she act as a boss in front of Lin Zuhui!

"After a year of advertising, about 10% of the citizens of important cities know about VCD players. And our Xiaomi VCD shipments have risen to about 20,000 units per month, which is in an absolute leading position in China."

After listening to this, Lin Zuhui said: "What about Japanese and Korean brands, what is the situation? ”

Zou Kaixuan said: "Japan's Panasonic's VCD has been sold in the mainland in the middle of this month, and the specific sales situation is still unknown, but Japanese brands are popular in the mainland and are our great enemies." ”

Lin Zuhui said with a smile: "VCD is just a high-tech product, and the so-called foreign brands are not to be worried." As long as we insist on advertising on CCTV, and then pass the price reduction, any foreign brand is not worried. ”

Zou Kaixuan nodded and said: "Well, I think so too, now the patent fee of the VCD machine, we can also charge $10 per patent fee, which can be regarded as a big boost in the morale of the Chinese." ”

Of course, there are patent fees, just like if Xiaomi Technology produces DVDs, it has to pay patent fees to Sony and Philips, and it is very expensive.

However, the picture quality of VCD is enough in China, DVD sales are far less high than VCD, and overseas sales of DVD, Xiaomi Technology is at a disadvantage, after all, it has only been established for a few years, and the brand is not loud enough.

Lin Zuhui asked again: "Now, how much does VCD cost?" ”

Zou Kaixuan said: "Excluding the R&D and advertising investment in the early stage, only the material cost is 1,800 yuan. This is mainly the reason why we control a decoder chip company and have a large number of supply contracts with Philips. ”

For this cost price, Lin Zuhui is very acceptable, even if it is another three or four years, those copycat factories use foreign parts to support the price to 2000 yuan, Xiaomi VCD can still ensure enough competitiveness; Of course, Xiaomi VCD will not drop below 3000, after all, the brand established in the early stage is enough to make it a mid-range brand, and the price is reduced to 2000 yuan, which is simply a self-surrendering identity, and it is mixed up with a copycat.

Why Lin Zuhui insisted on letting Cheng Long advertise was because in this era, mainlanders recognized Cheng Long, and Li Lianjie couldn't do it. In the previous life, the products endorsed by Cheng Long were very good at the beginning, such as the Xiaobawang learning machine and Aiduo VCD in the previous life, which were the bosses of the industry. The reason why it closed down is that the boss is not good at management.

"Very good, when Japanese and Korean brands enter the mainland in a big way, we will directly reduce the price to 3999 yuan; In the future, if the mainland copycat factory is attacked, we can slowly reduce it to the level of 3,000 yuan. ”

Zou Kaixuan said: "Well, the boss has a good method, after all, according to your prediction, the market sales will exceed 3 million next year (1994), and small profits and quick sales are the best plan." Moreover, we can also use the VCD player to establish the brand of Xiaomi Technology. ”

Lin Zuhui nodded, these products seem to sell a lot, but in fact, they don't make much money for the technology industry. is like the Tianyu mobile phone in the previous life, which once achieved the first sales of mobile phones in China, but it went out of business when it was said to be bankrupt.

Generally speaking, a 10% profit margin in the tech industry is very good; But this 10% of the profit, you have to continue to invest, once you choose the wrong direction, the result is the end of the game.

In the previous life, the Tianyu mobile phone was betting on Microsoft's smartphone system, but it disappeared, of course, it may only be part of the reason; The fundamental reason is that he does not have his own core technology.

"The company is short of funds, do you need me to inject another 500 million. Forget it, I'll inject another 500 million this year! ”

Zou Kaixuan was dumbfounded, and hurriedly said: "The company now has fist products, and there is a Xiaomi Science and Technology Park, there is no problem with the loan, you don't need the boss to pay any more, you have already invested more than a billion." ”

In the Xiaomi Science and Technology Park alone, it has invested more than 700 million yuan, as well as the acquisition of Sun Yansheng's chip company in the United States, the acquisition of a semiconductor company, and the investment in research and development of VCDs, mobile phones, fixed phones, and cordless phones; As for the R&D funds for pagers, they have already recovered their costs and have begun to make a profit.

Lin Zuhui said with a smile: "It's only 500 million, sprinkle water for me." You use this money to invest in R&D technology, and I have only one requirement for Xiaomi Technology, that is, to master its own core technology, and to have a lot of patents. ”

Zou Kaixuan nodded seriously, in her heart, Lin Zuhui was originally great, and the high-level in the mainland called him a 'patriotic businessman' (Li Chaoren is now also called so by the high-level).

Then, Lin Zuhui and Zou Kaixuan exchanged ideas about LCD screens and lithium batteries, and Zou Kaixuan took them to heart.

"I'm not letting you ascend to the sky in one step, but letting you develop gradually, ten years without results, just twenty years, as long as you accumulate technology for a long time, sooner or later one day you will make achievements in this field. As for the investment during this period, we can make a profit through 'consumer electronics', or we can raise funds through listing, and even before the listing, I can continue to support you. We have a certain advantage in funding, so you can find ways to get talent, equipment, and technology from overseas. ”

"Well, I remember."

Lin Zuhui said with satisfaction: "If one day Xiaomi Technology can become a high-tech giant, I can also profit from the stock market, but you can be famous all over the world, and if our son becomes a talent, he can also take over your class." ”

Zou Kaixuan nodded happily, almost moved to tears. She won't understand that Lin Zuhui decided not to go to the road of technology companies because he was worried that he would have to choose a side in the future, but many of his industries were abroad, so he couldn't express his position.

Although he knows that Xiaomi Technology was founded by him, he will do it for others by cashing out in a big amount and not holding any position in Xiaomi Technology.

Of course, it is also possible that Lin Zuhui is worried, and Xiaomi Technology can't do it to the extent of Huawei.

Lin Zuhui continued: "How is the situation of the little overlord? ”

Zou Kaixuan replied: "The second-generation learning machine developed last year is selling very well. At present, Xiaobawang can sell almost 30 million turnover per month, and it seems that it can pay a dividend of 20 million this year. ”

There is not much money, and Lin Zuhui can't look down on it at all.

Therefore, he said: "If it is possible, you can let Xiaobawang's talents recruit Xiaomi Technology." After all, Xiaobawang has nothing to develop now. And the joint venture, it is impossible to give them shares, and even a high salary is unlikely. And our Xiaomi technology is different, high salary is certain, important future listing, management and technical personnel, can get shares. You can reveal this and get those people to work harder. ”

Let's write a blank check first, even if the employee shares in the future, it will not be a real stock, Lin Zuhui plans to set up a trade union, a fund or something, and then hold a certain number of listed stocks; Employees and management, on the other hand, hold shares in the fund and the union, which only have the right to dividends and nothing else.

Zou Kaixuan said: "A high salary is enough, do you still need to give them shares?" After all, in China, those who can afford their high wages are almost our enterprises. ”

Lin Zuhui told Zou Kaixuan his thoughts, and this woman understood Lin Zuhui's little abacus.

"Okay, I got it!"
