Chapter 637: Take advantage of the void

When Wang Weidong went to the United States again in October, he first went to San Francisco, and then rushed to Silicon Valley.

The reason why he went to Silicon Valley was because Holley Optoelectronics on Taiwan Island had its R&D center located here.

Wang Weidong went with Li Yueshi this time, and Fan Wenfu of Holley Optoelectronics was already waiting for him in Silicon Valley.

Taiwan enterprises to the world much earlier than mainland enterprises, so Fan Wenfu is also more experienced, this time Xiangyang Electronics to build a factory in Utah Wang Weidong hopes to get Fan Wenfu's help.

Fan Wenfu was very happy to see Wang Weidong's arrival, although Silicon Valley is now in a depression, but it is mainly software and Internet companies that are bankrupt.

"People have gone crazy in recent years, and the price of dogs can increase dozens of times by adding some com! After this time, everyone will be much more rational. It is also a good opportunity to set up an R&D center here, and the rent is much cheaper than half a year ago. Fan Wenfu said.

He took out a box and handed it to Wang Weidong and said, "This is a gift I prepared for you, and this phone should not be sold in China." ”

Wang Weidong opened the box, which contained a straight mobile phone.

"Weidong, there is a camera on it, and it is the first mobile phone that can take pictures! The camera has 110,000 pixels, and the shooting is very clear! Fan Wenfu said.

Wang Weidong flipped to the back of the phone and found a camera.

This is a small book Sharp's mobile phone.

"Weidong, this is the future research direction of our Holley Optoelectronics, maybe every mobile phone will have a camera in the future! At that time, the prospect of our Holley Optoelectronics is incomparably broad! Fan Wenfu said excitedly.

"Now that the first camera phone has appeared, other mobile phone manufacturers will definitely follow suit." Wang Weidong said.

"This is not necessarily, now all mobile phone manufacturers are staring at Nokia, what new elements are on Nokia mobile phones, everyone immediately rushes to follow the learning, Sharp mobile phones are not good." Fan Wenfu said.

"I'm about to build a factory in Utah, and I hope you can give me some advice." Wang Weidong said.

"Now that there are more and more people from the mainland who are studying in the United States and staying in the United States, it is better not to hire them to manage the enterprise, but to find professional managers in the United States." Fan Wenfu said.

"Since the fifties, there have been Taiwan islands that let people stay in the United States, and since they have decided to stay in the United States, they will feel uncomfortable working in the company set up by the Chinese, and their work performance is not as good as they are in the United States company." Fan Wenfu explained.

Wang Weidong nodded.

Some Chinese work harder in foreigners' companies and don't mess around.

Wang and Li Yueshi rushed to Salt Lake City, and with Robert Jr., Wang Weidong signed a contract with a construction contractor to build a factory on 10 acres of land.

Wang Weidong thinks that if it were in China, such a project would take half the time at most.

On the day of the groundbreaking, not only Robert Sr., the father of Robert Jr., but also the governor of Utah and a host of politicians rushed to the scene, all hoping to appear in front of the 10,000 residents of Park City, as if they were responsible for the construction of this large factory that could employ 200 workers.

"Wang, after half a year after installing the equipment, I will invite my father to come over when I give birth! Thank you so much! Robert Jr. said.

Wang Weidong and Li Yueshi returned to Silicon Valley, and Wang Weidong wanted to see how Fan Wenfu recruited people and conducted research and development.

Li Yueshi paid attention to the rise and fall of the Dow Jones, especially the NASDAQ.

In half a year, the NASDAQ has fallen from 5,000 points to more than 2,000 points, and it has not stopped falling and stabilized. More than 50 percent of Internet companies went bankrupt.

In 2000, when China's major web portals were listed on the NASDAQ, the stock prices of these Chinese Internet companies fell so badly that they even fell below one dollar per share.

"Miss Li, I bought a lot of Nokia shares in the London stock market on Hong Kong Island, and when you go back, you will help me sell all of them, and all of them will be used to buy shares of Nasdaq China Internet stocks!" Wang Weidong said.

"Boss, looking at the current situation in the stock market, it should still fall." Li Yueshi said.

"No matter, enter the market at this price now!" Wang Weidong said.

China's stock market has very strict restrictions on foreign investment, but it is much easier in places like Hong Kong Island, where you can buy stocks from the major stock markets of the United States and Europe without having to open an account in the United States and Europe.

Every year, after Wang Weidong sold the fish from the fishing company in Vladivostok to the small book country and the peninsular country, three or four hundred thousand dollars were remitted to his bank account on Hong Kong Island, and then the money was immediately bought into Nokia shares in the London stock market.

So far, we have bought nearly $5 million.

Nokia stock has been rising over the years, and Nokia mobile phones have also risen to become the world's mobile phone giants.

Stocks bought ten years ago naturally rose a lot, while stocks bought in the past two years naturally rose very little.

After the establishment of the R&D center, in order to develop resins for the production of lenses, Fan Wenfu spent high salaries from companies such as DuPont to poach people, and he recruited people from Texas Instruments and other companies to study the optoelectronic part.

Due to the bursting of the dot-com bubble and the poor economic situation in the United States, now is a good time to recruit.

Wang Weidong flew from San Francisco to Shanghai and then to Beijing.

He wanted to go to the university construction site to see the construction progress, but he didn't expect Song Yu and Ou Xiaoyang to follow and see.

Song Yu went abroad for more than a month to get married and traveled abroad, and when he returned to the capital, he has been hiding here and not going there, and now he is still thinking about it.

"When I first got married, I forgot to tell you to wash your filthy body for more than ten years with a hundred tons of holy water! It's only been so long since you've been married that you're tired of it? I didn't misread you, you're not a good thing! Wang Weidong asked.

Song Yu said with a smile: "After getting married, I found out that this is what happened, and I have no desire for anything now!" ”

"It's okay to go there, but you have to go the same day and come back the same day!" Wang Weidong said.

The Chinese have been good at doing big projects since Dayu controlled the water, and ancient books say that Dayu connected the yellow water and the long water together. Later, the construction of the Great Wall to the Grand Canal had already been practiced, as long as it was done quickly by relying on the project that consumed time with manpower.

Wang Weidong, Song Yuou, and Xiaoyang came to the university construction site and saw four huge deep pits, and there was only one basement under the main building of liberal arts teaching, which was not deep.

"The experts of the northern powers designed a three-story underground laboratory, I thought that a depth of more than ten meters would be enough, but I didn't expect it to be more than thirty meters deep!" Song Yu said.

"A few months ago I went to Magadan, a small city in the Far East near Kamchatka, where many of the underground fortifications were built tens of meters deep! They were afraid that the Mi Guokees would attack them, so they were ready forty years ago! Wang Weidong said.
