At the beginning, the first mobile phone that Chen Muwu bought, the brand was "Suo Ai".

"Sony" refers to Ben's Sony, and "love" naturally refers to this Ericsson of Sweden.

Even if a person no longer understands history, when he travels back to 1924 and sees a company that is still in the 21st century a hundred years later, he can understand that this company must have its means to make money and survive.

Historically, Ericsson did eventually become one of the companies controlled by the Wallenberg family, but that was not until the thirties of the twentieth century.

Now the Ericsson who is struggling to make ends meet, his upcoming new owner, is the Kruger mentioned by both the Crown Prince of Sweden and Chen Muwu.

Kruger is a very complicated person who can't evaluate him in just a few words.

At its peak, the Swedish match trust in Kruger's hands accounted for more than 75% of the world's match production, and one-third of the world's population used matches produced by Kruger.

And matches were not his main business, and Kruger's reputation in the world was for issuing bonds with the credit of the Swedish match company, which had a worldwide sales reach, and then lending nearly $400 million to fifteen countries.

In the 21st century, this is about $10 billion.

In fact, his bonds and loans are nothing more than a "Ponzi scheme" of tearing down the east wall and making up the west wall on a global scale.

The worldwide economic crisis of the twenties and thirties of the twentieth century completely ruined Kruger's dream.

The Swedish match company's share price has been falling, doubts have begun to arise about his bonds, and Germany and Eastern European countries seem unable to repay Kruger's loans.

The last hundred straws that crushed the camel were all rushed together.

In 1932, the match king Kruger committed suicide by drinking a bomb in Paris, France, and his match empire collapsed.

After that, the Wallenberg family took over the Swedish telecommunications company from Kruger, the short-lived head of Ericsson, and held on until the 21st century, a hundred years later.

Therefore, Chen Muwu's advice to Marcus Jr. basically follows the trajectory of historical development.

If it succeeds, it will only allow Ericsson to skip the Kruger stage and go straight to the Wallenberg era.

Hearing Chen Muwu mention Ericsson, Marcus Jr. was not so surprised.

"Dr. Chen, the Ericsson company you are talking about has also been discussed in the family before.

"But contrary to what you have said, several directors agree that Ericsson is not a company worth buying.

"Now the telecom market in Sweden as a whole, and even in Northern Europe as a whole, has basically reached a state of saturation.

The family once sent someone to investigate Ericsson's business territory and found that their current focus is on Brazil and other places in South America.

"It was too far away from Sweden and within the sphere of influence of the United States, and the family didn't think it would take the risk to open up the South American market, so they decided that buying Ericsson was not a wise choice.

"Dr. Chen, do you have any other thoughts on this matter?"

This......

Chen Muwu actually just wanted to brag about it, and he happened to know about Ericsson, so he happened to see in the newspaper that this company was not making ends meet, and he also knew that someone was about to buy it, so he thought about sending a favor to Little Marcus.

But you have to ask him how to run a communication equipment company well, which is really not what Chen Muwu is good at.

Chen Muwu felt that his proposal might be self-defeating, and his brain was spinning rapidly, wanting to find some reason to fool this matter over.

Then, Chen Muwu suddenly remembered a person.

This time, Kapitsa, Zhao Zhongyao and Shi Ruwei came to Stockholm, Sweden from Cambridge, England, and a reporter from the Manchester Guardian named James Crowther.

Although Crowther was also an alumnus of Trinity College, Cambridge, Chen Muwu did not know this person until he met in Stockholm.

He didn't know why, the Manchester media came to interview him, was it because his teacher Rutherford had a teaching position at the Victoria University in Manchester?

After the award ceremony, Chen Muwu and the journalist Crowther met in Stockholm.

After meeting, Chen Muwu learned the true purpose of Capitsa's introduction to Crowther.

In addition to being an alumnus of Trinity College and a reporter for the Manchester Guardian, there is another layer of this gentleman, who is one of the members of the CPGB.

And the reason why this organization suddenly contacted Chen Muwu was because they found out that when Chen Muwu, Kapitsa and Ye Gongchao visited Blackett's house during the British King's birthday holiday last summer, Chen Muwu had donated a ten-pound maintenance fee for the burial place of one of them at Highgate Cemetery, not far from Blackett's home.

This made the CPGB regard Chen Muwu as one of its own, thinking that he might be a member of a certain branch of Uh-hum International and a member of a brotherly party.

That's why they sent Crowther to visit Chen Muwu in Stockholm with Kapitsa from Su Lianlai, ostensibly to interview the new Nobel laureate in physics trained by Cambridge University in the United Kingdom, but in fact, they also wanted to get in touch with him.

After learning the real purpose of this reporter's visit, Chen Muwu couldn't laugh or cry.

His donation of money at Highgate Cemetery was actually only out of admiration for a great man, and he had no intention of getting in touch with the British side.

Crowther tried to develop Chen Muwu as a member of the Uh-Uh-Mm International, but Chen Muwu ultimately rejected his offer.

First, he did not want to get involved in local politics in England, and second, his teacher Rutherford was very disgusted with bringing politics into the Cavendish laboratory.

But Chen Muwu also made it clear to Crowther that he was a person who had a good impression of their organization.

He hoped that through this organization, he could get in touch with Su Lian in the future.

Although he is still in the stage of making money everywhere, if one day, his wealth has accumulated enough, Chen Muwu thought with some bad taste, maybe he can turn that fishing post of gold rubles into reality.

Although the figure of 350 million gold rubles is really a bit exaggerated, it seems that it can still be done with tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of "gold rubles", right?

Thinking of Crowther, Chen Muwu thought of Su Lian behind him.

The Wallenberg family's assessment of Ericsson was that the South American market was too far from Sweden and that it was all within sight of the United States.

But no matter how far the United States stretches its hand and manages it widely, they can't reach the emerging market of Sulian, right?

Soon after the Iron Father came to power, Su Lian ushered in a stage of rapid development.

The American Hammer can go to Sulian to do business, so Ericsson can also go to the vast Sulian to open up the market.

So Chen Muwu told the idea he had just thought of to Marcus Jr. and the Swedish crown prince who accompanied him.

Marcus Jr. will be skeptical, and he is apparently less optimistic about the emerging red regime near Sweden, like most people in the world.

"Dr. Chen, do you really think it's a good place to invest?"

"I can't say if it's suitable for investment, maybe the family behind you should have more research on this matter.

"But I only think about it from the perspective of Ericsson, Sulian has a huge territory and a very large population, and the demand for telecommunications services in such a country should be very large.

"I once read in a book the British economic commentator T. John Denning said: 'As soon as there is a proper profit, capital is emboldened; If there is a ten percent profit, it is guaranteed to be used everywhere; If there is a twenty percent profit, it is active; With a 50 percent profit, it takes a risk; With 100 percent profits, it dares to trample on all human laws; With 300 per cent profits, it dares to commit any crime, even to the risk of hanging its head.'"

"In the face of a vast market and huge profits, what is Sulian, a country with some mysteries?"

Fortunately, Chen Muwu stopped in time and did not continue, because if he said it again, he would have to say the famous sentence "Capital came to the world, from head to toe, every pore is dripping with blood and filth".

However, his words seemed to have an effect, fooling the fledgling little Marcus into a daze.

"Dr. Chen, I definitely can't be the master of this matter you said, so I guess I have to go back to SEB Bank and discuss it with my family.

"The same is true for the school in Stockholm. Don't know when you'll leave Sweden and return to the UK? If time is short, I may not be able to speak to you in England until after Christmas.

"Mr. Wallenberg, of course, the sooner the better.

"But I also know that the family behind you will definitely discuss this matter for a long time before they can come up with a final solution.

"If nothing else, I'll probably leave Sweden in a few days, but not necessarily just back to the UK, maybe Denmark, then the Netherlands, then France.

"It is expected that I will not be able to return to the UK until after the New Year as soon as possible."

Bohr still did not give up on leaving Chen Muwu at the Institute of Theoretical Physics at the University of Copenhagen.

After the award ceremony, Bohr invited everyone to Copenhagen, where he planned to hold another award ceremony for his younger brother Chen Muwu.

Stretching out his hand and not hitting the smiling person, Chen Muwu will definitely not refuse Bohr's kindness.

He has offended Einstein a little hard in recent times, and he can no longer lose Bohr's backing to support him.

Bohr had already returned to Copenhagen early to prepare for the celebrations.

In Chen Muwu's plan, after leaving Denmark, he will not be invited by the University of Göttingen to visit Germany for exchanges.

Instead, he planned his trip to Germany's neighbor Netherlands.

Chen Muwu plans to go to Leiden University on the way back, and continue to fool Ren Kefangxiong to patiently go down in the direction of superconductivity.

At the same time, he also wants to buy some corresponding experimental equipment and cryogenic materials at the World Center for Low Temperature Physics at Leiden University.

On the one hand, Chen Muwu is doing a full set of dramas, which makes Ren Ke believe that he has indeed shifted the focus of his work to low-temperature physics.

On the other hand, he felt that there were a few peaches on the big tree of cryogenic physics, and it was time to pick them.

And after leaving the Netherlands, of course, I have to go to France.

After the Nobel Prize ceremony, Christmas is coming.

Eve had already returned to France from Sweden with de Broglie and his party.

The four Capitsa who came from England have also returned to England with Blackett, who had come from the University of Göttingen.

In addition to his eldest brother, only Oppenheimer and Ye Gongchao are still left by Chen Muwu's side.

Chen Muqiao also had the intention of leaving Sweden to return to China, but as soon as he put forward this idea, he was directly rejected by Chen Muwu.

Even if he leaves Sweden now, it will be difficult for him to return to his home in 1925 before the Lunar New Year.

It is better to stay in Europe, spend the year with Chen Muwu, and then return to China without hurrying.

Of course, in addition to this, Chen Muwu has another thought.

My eldest brother finally came to Europe for a trip, how could he not meet Eve's mother's family?

He also hoped that after Chen Muqiao went back, he could successfully fool the old lady abroad with this incident.

Although Chen Muqiao did not return to China, Chen Muwu won the Nobel Prize in Physics and raised in his acceptance speech that the universe may have originated from a process similar to "Pangu opening the world", which was finally transmitted back to China along the telegraph line and published in various large, medium and small newspapers in various large and medium-sized cities.

Although the Second Zhifeng War had ended, the direct warlords Cao Kun and Wu Peifu had been overthrown, and the domestic politics were somewhat leaderless, the Beiyang government of the People's Republic of China still made a decision quickly.

They continued to reward Chen Muwu, who won glory for the country, but only promoted him to the first-class Grand Ribbon Baoguang Jiahe Medal and the First Class Medal, which had been awarded once before.

The former is already the top one in the Baoguang Jiahe medal system.

And the latter is already the highest level of medal that an ordinary person can get in the medal system.

Further up, whether it is a grand medal or a grand medal, it is an honor that only the president of the Republic of China can wear.

Within a year, Chen Muwu's two medals jumped two levels from the third class to the first class.

This promotion speed is estimated to be unprecedented and unprecedented.

On the other hand, Chen Muwu's conjecture about the origin of the universe attracted most of the attention of Europeans and Americans before Christmas.

It's just very unfriendly to Hubble, because he has previously concluded that these nebulae are outside the Milky Way by observing the Andromeda Nebula, which should have been very exciting news.

As a result, Chen Muwu used his data, combined with the receding speed of the nebula observed by Shriver, to come up with a conjecture that was even more explosive than the extragalactic galaxy, completely obscuring Hubble's edge.

Although Chen Muwu's conjecture is very bold, the resistance it has received in European and American academic circles and all walks of life is far less than the probability wave and uncertainty principle he proposed.

Because after all, there is irrefutable data out there.

However, when the news was transmitted back to China, Chen Muwu's Pangu-style cosmic origin was fiercely resisted by the academic community.

Of course, this academic community does not refer to the physics and astronomy circles, and in today's China, the voices of these two academic circles are basically negligible.

The loudest opposition was made by the radicals of the New Culture Movement, those who advocated total Westernization while at the same time declaring that traditional culture should be completely repudiated.

Although they did not understand either astronomy or physics, they were confident that they would never believe that Pangu, a very fanciful and ignorant ancient Chinese myth, could reveal how the universe originated.

In order to deny the traditional culture of their own country, some people who claim to be a scholar of literature and history have even dug out the "mythological works" written by themselves, pointing out that Pangu is not a local god in China, but a foreign product from ancient India along with Buddhism.

Only "Xueheng" magazine stood up to support Chen Muwu.

Of course, their original intention was simply to use Chen Muwu's reputation to continue to promote their conservative retro views in line with the New Culture Movement.

Chen Muwu, who is not in China, of course he doesn't know that there is a mess in China because of the Pangu theory of the origin of the universe that he proposed.

After the meeting with Marcus Jr., Chen Muwu stayed in Sweden for a few days, and then left Sweden with his eldest brother Chen Muqiao, as well as Oppenheimer and Ye Gongchao, and went to Copenhagen, Denmark.

Whether the Wallenberg family will buy Ericsson is also unpredictable.

Regarding the matter of that school, it is estimated that there will be no result for a while.

It seems that it can only be as Marcus Jr. said, and the future is long.

Taking advantage of this time, Chen Muwu had to hurry up and get some money.

What's that, I wish you all a happy 520!
