Global Monopoly of Technology

Before leaving the science and technology complex building, Liu Jianwei wrote a handwritten letter, naturally to recommend his old friend to teach and lead the nano-robot science team at Harbin Institute of Technology to jump ship to Star Arrow International.

This kind of long-term subject research from the application stage, apart from the support of national scientific research institutions, really has no capital willing to invest, and the state's funding is limited, and it is more inclined to give priority to funding for technologies that can be quickly applied. field.

However, Luo Sheng is undoubtedly an exception. Not only does he like to invest in these areas of partial basic research, but the key is that he is also the richest man in the world and the master of money.

It is unexpected to know that a top nanotechnology research team may even join Star Arrow International. Luo Sheng is also very happy.

This is the invisible benefit. God knows if Liu Jianwei's old friend will recommend him again?

The fact that has to be acknowledged is that even academics are divided into circles, and even the atmosphere of the circles is stronger.

There is no need to think about the space ladder project in the short term. In the next ten to fifteen years, breakthroughs and precipitation of cutting-edge technologies may be carried out. There are four key technical pain points that can really advance the space ladder plan to the actual stage Must be resolved.

The first is the breakthrough of the new material carbon fiber nanotube technology, the second is also the breakthrough of the new material normal temperature superconductor, and the third is the breakthrough of nanotechnology.

The fourth is the problem of air and space transportation.

Luo Sheng chose recyclable rocket technology. In addition to commercial space launch, star chain plan and unmanned autopilot, Star Arrow International ’s vision is to be the largest mission of Star Arrow International.

As long as these four major technical pain points are resolved, the space ladder is bound to enter the actual planning stage.

As for the infrastructure of the space station, ground base station, and aerospace launch port that this ladder has, human beings have already had a long-term technological sedimentation. The biggest problem of these problems is the incredible amount of engineering and the scale of the project budget.

Century Engineering is not just a literal meaning, it means a huge investment of human and material resources.

The budget for this project is impossible to complete without trillions of dollars, but as long as it is completed, humans will no longer be confined to the cradle of the earth, and at least the range of activity will be normal around the Earth's orbit. This is the existence of the space ladder. In the best sense.

Such a super project of the century did not happen overnight. It took more than three months to build a model by hand. Of course, future planning is important, but focusing on the present is more important.

Luo Sheng needs money, he needs to make a lot of money.

Only by earning enough money now can Star Arrow International become the major shareholder of the space ladder project and gain control. Ten or twenty years later, the space ladder project cannot be achieved by Luo Sheng alone. It must be a transnational cooperation project, and the participating giant groups are not one or two, and national capital will also participate.

Even if there is really this capital to carry out this project alone, Luo Sheng will not do it, the risk is too great.

As soon as Liu Jianwei left, Luo Sheng accepted the recommendation letter he wrote, returned to the private office and set the envelope aside, and immediately opened the list of work emails and found that there were two unchecked emails.

This is the 2012 financial report of Blue Star Technology from Zhang Bowen, and the 2012 financial report of the Blue Coast from Yao Jianhong.

Luo Sheng clicked in and took a look.

In 2012, the annual revenue of Bluestar Technology Group was 115.97 billion U.S. dollars, which was almost eliminated compared with the brilliant performance of 2030 billion U.S. dollars in the previous year. The net profit for the year was 100 million U.S. dollars, compared with 72 billion U.S. dollars in the previous year. It's about 28%.

This financial report also met the expectations of Wall Street analysts. At the same time, because Bluestar Technology has stabilized the European market, Blackstone Group previously predicted that Bluestar Technology's annual revenue was less than 100 billion US dollars, but then supplemented the risk report and adjusted it to 1128. 100 million US dollars, very close to the real data.

Although the performance is not as good as the previous year, it is still a multinational technology giant with annual revenue of more than 100 billion US dollars. Taking last year's data as an example, a company that can achieve annual revenue of 100 billion US dollars has thousands of people worldwide. Only a few of the 65 companies have done it. We must know that the number of companies in the world is measured in units of 10,000.

For companies with hundreds of billions of dollars in revenue, any one who casually took out the existence of either a giant or an industry overlord, sneezing the entire industry is following a cold.

Blue Star Technology's turmoil last year is the best explanation, and countless companies that follow the "ill".

Because last year's revenue was almost cut, Bluestar Technology fell to 40th place in the world's top 500 rankings, second only to French retail giant Carrefour Group.

Although profits have plummeted, when it is still sitting in the top five in the world, it is still one of the most profitable companies in the world.

After reading the content of the email, Luo Sheng directly edited a piece of content and sent it to Zhang Bowen, and then opened Yao Jianhong's email.

In the past year, the annual sales of the Cote d'Azur companies have reached $ 175 billion, an increase of 27% compared to the previous year. Last year, the sibling company Bluestar Technology suffered miserably, but the Cote d'Azur has not suffered much. The impact, that is, once forced by Wall Street to adjust the company's asset allocation, did not have a substantial impact on the company's operations.

North America has not started at the same time, and now it is fortunate that it has not started at the same time. Just hitting Blue Star Technology has caused so many moths.

The French Riviera recorded a net profit of 100 million US dollars last year, an increase of% over the previous year. The net profit margin is a bit low compared to its high technology, only about 11.5%.

But it can't stand the huge base. The azure coast broke the net profit of 20 billion US dollars for the first time last year. Even with crazy investment in research and development, high human resource costs and business operating costs, it still made money.

From this perspective, the high-tech industry is indeed the most profitable.

It is worth mentioning that the Azur Coast Company did not release new products last year. The smartphone is still selling Azure-3, and it is still a best-selling product. The continued sales of ieP tablets have further boosted the sales of Azure-3 mobile phones.

In January of this year, the cumulative sales volume of the console has exceeded 100 million units, and it has undoubtedly become another phenomenal product for home game consoles.

Hardware sales are the biggest player on the French Riviera, but the more profitable software business is also growing at a satisfactory rate, with the AOS ecosystem contributing $ 16.5 billion in sales.

The sales of games on the console platform are also quite pleasing. In the third quarter of last year, the platform's revenue has been balanced with the amount of subsidies paid to third parties, and finally achieved a profit of $ 170 million for the whole year.

This means that starting this year, the mainframe has started to make a full profit.

But to say the biggest bright spot is the company's smart phone open source system WOS.

After the French Riviera has completed the bottom layer of the system, it will be used free of charge by friends. Now domestic smartphone brands such as Xiaomi, Xiweiwei, Coolpad, Apple's iPhone and other mobile phone brands all use the WOS ecosystem.

However, there is still a relatively maverick, the mobile phone business of Lianxiang chose the Android system, the explanation given by the other is to do global business, so I chose a relatively suitable global Android system.

There are always gangsters.

It is worth mentioning that there are also six or seven foreign mobile phone brands using the WOS operating system, which are basically small brands that are optional, but the biggest brand is not Apple's iPhone.

Last year's iPhone shipments ranked third in the world in terms of annual shipments, second only to ung (Samsung). What I have to say is that Cook, who has been in charge of Apple for two years, is indeed a marketing master.

The WOS open source system is free, but it has brought quite amazing advertising revenue to the French Riviera. WOS contributed 15 billion yuan (2.2 billion US dollars) in advertising revenue during the whole year of last year.

Nowadays, the pattern of the global smartphone market is that the Azure brand, which belongs to the French Riviera, stands at the top of the food chain and seeks defeat. It is in the first echelon.

The second echelon is a situation where the two camps face each other. The WOS camp, which is dominated by domestic brands, is the iPhone. The most representative brand is the iPhone. Although it is an American company, Apple was facing a crisis and Luo Sheng decisively pinched it. , Also strangled the birth of iOS.

The competitors of WOS are the Android camp. The most representative brand is Samsung mobile phones. HTC has been surpassed.

The second echelon is the competition between the two major open source systems.

The third echelon is "other", such as Microsoft's mobile phone business, Sony's mobile phone business, and traditional old-fashioned manufacturers such as Nokia. These are not to mention, in the wave of the mobile Internet, they are even struggling to follow their work.

After reading the contents of the email, Luo Sheng also returned a message to Yao Jianhong.

Right now is the Spring Festival, but most of the executives of the two companies do not have time to go home to celebrate the New Year ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ The executives of Bluestar Technology are working overtime collectively. The crisis last year passed, but a large The problems in the heap must be properly handled, otherwise it will affect the operation plan of the new year.

The next day, Bluestar Technology Group publicly disclosed its 2012 financial report information. This annual report, which was in line with Wall Street analysts' expectations, was still driving the market.

After financing last year, the total share capital of Bluestar Technology reached 1.95 billion shares. After-hours trading, the stock price was US $ per share and the net earnings per share were US $ 100 million. .

Entering the new year of February, the market finally stabilized, and with Buffett's rare heavy storage holding of BTC stocks, small and medium investors and fund companies, and even retail investors have also dispelled doubts.

Make up positions and go up!

Well, what happened before is not to blame.

It is important to grasp the present and carry forward the past.
