Reborn American Tycoon

"Let's go, don't watch this TV, let's go to dinner."
"Silly dog, keep up." Erha was very happy, and let out a wolf howl.
"Haha, boss, no wonder you don't let this guy go to Texas, this is the rhythm that will die at any time."
"Oh, I'm convinced too, you bastard."
Not to mention Texas, if it wasn't for this famous product, someone in Hollywood would admit their mistake.Fortunately, his mansion is big enough, otherwise it would be really troublesome to walk the dog.
Fu Bo went to Texas to take care of his little princess, and there is usually only Xiaohu left here.Since William White had a daughter, Forber has never left.
"When is your daughter coming?"
"A little older, children will not be used to flying." It is no secret about William White, not to mention the people around him, even in the powerful class.
This kind of eclectic alternative really makes people speechless.No matter how you look at it, this daughter doesn't look like an illegitimate daughter.It's just, aren't you unmarried?
However, since the richest man himself does not shy away from it, what position do other people have to point fingers?In short, this is the princess who was born with a golden key in her mouth, and she must not be ignored.
"Daheng Huo, there won't be any more changes now, right?"
"What? Li Chaoren, you make too much money, are you worried?"
"It's nothing to me, it's just strange that there is no reason for the British capital to withdraw at this time."
"Hmph, other than taking advantage of their privileges, what other skills do these bastards have? The Americans are more disciplined."
"That's right, this guy is really lucky, he picked it up cheaply."
"Hehe, is it cheap? You may be wrong. If he has nothing, how dare he invest like this?"
"Yes, Americans are obviously unwilling to make extra trouble."
Today's Xiangjiang is becoming more and more prosperous day by day, and the whole world sees that kind of thriving attitude, except John Bull.
Next door is a market of more than one billion people. Even if you don't invest now, it is still necessary to occupy a piece of land nearby.
Xiangjiang is roughly in this state now, how could there be any downturn.I believe that in a few years, John Bull must be in pain and want to hit the wall.
Chapter 368 Pacific Satellite Communications Corporation
The space shuttle of the United States fell, and of course the aerospace field suffered a serious blow.It is unrealistic to launch a manned spacecraft again, and we can only seek breakthroughs in other fields.
In this way, the four satellites NBC needs are crucial.At this time, what needs to be prioritized is no longer a cost factor, but restoring customer confidence seems to be more important.
"What? Are you sure?"
"Yes, this newly established company has already started soliciting business."
"Tsk, so they do need more satellites."
For smaller TV stations, it is obviously more cost-effective to rent a port.Launching a satellite is not easy, and maintenance costs are not low.
Today's NBC is so clean, the production department is gone, and the person in charge of signal transmission is gone.
Everyone believes that doing so is only worried about anti-monopoly investigations.It is an act of necessity.
It's just that NBC, which has successfully slimmed down, seems to be stronger.Not only the number of viewers in the United States is increasing, but also the number of viewers around the world.
At this level, the Ministry of Justice dare not speak at all.When cultural export is involved, no one will mention anti-monopoly at all.
Well, unless Peanutton's boss is crazy and plans to practice the Sunflower Book.Otherwise, no department will provoke NBC.
Whether it's envy or jealousy, it's too late.For this situation, the donkey is naturally extremely resentful.The only good news is that William White didn't have a clear position at all.
Or it can be said that as long as you don't provoke him, this guy is docile and harmless.
In the United States today, television has clearly become an essential appliance.Even if the price has changed slightly recently, it has not affected people's buying enthusiasm in the slightest.
This is not just a matter of the American family. Televisions are rapidly gaining popularity all over the world.Now with satellite TV, this level of popularity may be even higher.
As long as a pot cover can solve the problem, it is not too convenient.Before that, but also to install closed-circuit television.
In fact, at this point, there is no wired or wireless at all, only paid and free.In general, as long as you buy a decoder card, you can watch it for a year.If you don't want to pay, watch free channels.
"Yihua, this one seems to be good, and the fee is not very expensive."
"Yes, Lide is about to go to the stars. It's strange to say that that ghost doesn't seem to care much about it."
"Hehe, it's a big business. For a regional TV station, it's not bad to be on the star."
William White's goal is internationalization, and he will care about the market here in Xiangjiang.If the program is good, he will start a Cantonese channel in the future.
As for Shao Daheng, he doesn't care whether Wireless is the leader or not.Xiangjiang has a bigger structure, and it is good for everyone to make a fortune together.
"Boss, we have calculated it, and it seems that it is difficult to generate profits."
"Really? But I want to know why so many international capitals are interested in this capital increase and share expansion?"
"It can only be said that they are buying expectations." For Morgan Stanley, the current media industry is completely unrecognizable, and their previous experience seems to be totally useless.
I thought that the separation of production and broadcasting by NBC was just talking, but they all thought it was just a method of William White.What surprised them was that they were obviously playing for real.
Whether it's a variety show or an American drama, it's really the one with the highest price.At the same time, this newly emerged copyright company is sweeping the film libraries of major film companies.
Hollywood, the most indispensable thing is movies.You know, many movies don't have the chance to be released.These things already belong to negative equity. Now that someone buys them, it is better not to waste them.
If you want to talk about these things, those who engage in movie stations must buy them.Otherwise, why don't you show some movies for others to watch? The movie channel under NBC is actually inherently deficient. It doesn't have a huge movie library.
As for White Pictures, it was a new company after all.It may be good ten years from now, but now it is really not confident.
Kerkorian of MGM once again played the advantage of not being distressed.Fox couldn't hold on anymore, and they were actually too choked up.Since these rubbish can be exchanged for money, then don't say anything.Sell it all, as long as the price is right, you can take it from MGM.
Getting a few satellites to collect tolls in the sky, this business, no matter how you look at it, is a bit lofty.The consortium is actually very depressed, this is the channel they are best at, why did people get ahead of them?
Not making money now?
Cut, what are you afraid of, since the number of users is increasing, price increases are a must.
Isn't that how William White charges?
Otherwise, how could those small companies engage in satellite TV?
A group of guys who finally figured it out began to beat their chests and feet, thinking that this matter should be so-and-so, William White, a bastard, is really a bit sloppy, at least it should be hyped up.
"Hype? Filson, are they sure I need this?" Filson was speechless about the boss's pretentiousness.However, there is no way to refute it. Although it is hateful to pretend to be coercive, it is generally just a fact.
"They may have figured out the joints, and if they learned about it in advance, they would definitely increase their investment."
"Ha, they dare not to study my William White's project carefully. Is this considered ignorance? Then it's bad luck for them."
In fact, Felson wanted to say that the local tyrants in the desert trust blindly. As for those people in the foot basin, they belong to the rich and stupid.Well, even if there are various reasons, William White's strong credit is the most important reason.
Just like those venture capital firms that haunt Silicon Valley, do you really think you are investing in projects?
The two guys Jobs and Bill Gates are actually different.You haven't even graduated from college, and you really need to work harder to convince investors.
As the first public version of the 2D accelerator card, it is inevitable that it will receive widespread attention from the market.Even if the price is quite expensive, it cannot stop the enthusiasm of enthusiasts.In their opinion, with this thing, games like Monopoly can have a visual sense.
Only this time, the White system seems to have abandoned the foot basin man.Their board seems to be a product of UMC.
"William, what is this UMC, can it work?"
"Old Qiao, it may not be as good as the foot basin now, but I can't help it, the price is too expensive."
"Aren't what you sell more expensive, so you can earn less."
"You said it lightly. Doesn't my R&D team need to pay bonuses? This thing cannot be widely used. If the price of memory is effectively reduced, I will certainly seek sales."
Qiao Dashen actually just wanted to complain, this computer is cheaper there.He saw the public version of the accelerator card and was worried that his computer would not be sold.
"I said, can you focus on software? This thing seems to be more worth pondering."
"Hey, the price is too expensive, and [-] megabytes of hard disk space is not enough, how do you want me to sell software?"
"This can't help you. The technology is in the hands of IBM, and these bastards won't come out so quickly." This is really not William White's rambling, if it weren't for Seagate's support, these bastards would still want to squeeze toothpaste slowly, but I don't know why it wasn't disassembled.
To get William White to say that Big Blue has indeed hindered the progress of mankind.
Chapter 369 The prototype of Yixing Project
The investment bank found that the Yixing project that Motorola was tinkering with was even better than the satellite project in the Pacific Ocean.After all, those larger TV stations have their own satellites.
In fact, even some small countries are unlikely to lease for a long time.Many TV stations have national capital, and they will not give up their propaganda channels.
After all, the integrity of US imperialism has always been criticized.This group of bastards who can turn faces faster than pages can cooperate but cannot be trusted.
The most attractive thing about Motorola's Yixing project is that this smart guy actually left the ground receiving station aside.
In other words, William White's previous worries were completely unfounded.You are just a technical novice, what kind of big-tailed wolf are you here to pretend to be?
"you sure?"
"Yes, boss, they plan to use 77 low-orbit satellites to form a seamless route."
"Filson, I understand what you mean. The satellite phone does not need a receiving station for direct contact. If you call a landline phone, you still need an access port. In this way, the price may be very expensive."
"Yes, it is expected to exceed five dollars per minute. If the number of users reaches the set value, the price will be reduced to less than three dollars."
"Okay, even if it sounds unreliable, we'd better vote a little bit, otherwise, the Galvin family will lose face."
As long as it is not an investment subject, William White doesn't care about this toy.He himself uses it a lot.It is a pity that this plan that ended without a cause ended in nothing.Those moons also chose to commit suicide in the end, which can be regarded as a complete fiasco.
Company bankruptcy and reorganization are nothing in the United States, and they happen almost every day.Situations like Yixing Company are extremely rare. In the end, no one wanted this company that invested billions of dollars for free.
Then you said, since you know it's a pit, why the hell are you still jumping?
There's nothing I can do about it, everyone is looking at him with a magnifying glass, there's really no need to perform too well.Encountering some Waterloos will not affect the overall situation, and it is not good to behave too evil.
The joining of William White made the Galvin family very satisfied.They don't really care about the tens of millions of dollars. What they care about is that William White invested.
Yes, although this product has had some failures, it generally doesn't make many mistakes.The funds under the White family are already very large.They believe that after this successful investment in the foot basin, William White's assets will rise to a new level.
The power of role models is sometimes very important.Prior to this, it was considered a whimsical plan, but it seemed that it was possible to realize it.
"Are you sure? Such an unreliable plan, he actually signed the investment intention?"
"Boss, analysts believe that the competition for cellular phones is intensifying. If this continues, it will cost more than fifty dollars to develop an end customer."
"Tsk, it's a pity, if the eight Bell brothers were to operate it, it would definitely not be the current situation."
"Their so-called Yixing project is just launching cell phone towers into the sky. The idea is still very interesting."
Honestly, seeing Motorola's engineers demo.William White couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of coffee.
Nima, as long as you can contact anyone under the sky, are you sure this is the slogan?
For someone who often does bad things.It's okay to stand under the sun. If it's cloudy or something, it's better to take it easy. If it's struck by lightning, it will be ridiculous.
He just couldn't figure it out. Since I use a satellite phone, it is naturally a very private matter.Shouldn't such a phone call be made in secret?
Looking at the big brick in his hand, William White suddenly felt kind.Although it is not very reliable, it is far better than that satellite phone.
After returning to his own territory, William White finally couldn't help complaining.
"Filson, I'm a novice in technology. Can you explain to me why cellular phones don't need to be played in the sun, but satellite phones are needed. Could it be that this is a solar phone?"
Filson was also very depressed about the boss's complaints. His instinct told him that this thing was really unreliable.
"Let me go and consult later. It's impossible for them not to care about such a simple truth."
"Just go to your own laboratory and ask, there is no need to pour cold water on it."
"Okay, I know the boss."
If it weren't for the consideration of the cooperative relationship between the two, William White could have slipped away now.
In fact, William White thinks Motorola is doing too much.Rather than making it so complicated, it is better to rent the military's communication lines.
Like the Internet, although this thing was originally designed for military use, it is actually very wasteful.
The Yixing project is huge, and compared to the military system, it is really nothing.As for the frequency of use, more than 95% are actually idle.
Faced with an empty treasury, William White believed that they would not mind raising some income.At the very least, it would be nice to be reimbursed for some maintenance costs.
A communication satellite has a service life of five or six years.Even if you never use it, you will still need to let it kill itself after a few years.That being the case, why not use waste?
Isn't that what GPS is?
This thing, after you get used to it, you think it doesn't matter, but it is still a very tall thing in this era.Who would have thought that this thing not only became a civilian system, but was even free to use.
As for why Lao Mei is so generous?
Don't worry, there must be interests or purposes behind this.When did Lao Mei ever make a loss-making business?
After finishing the satellite phone, the research and development project of the second generation mobile phone has also started.Although it is still an analog signal, it has begun to turn to the design of portability.
As a self-defense weapon, the super big brick is still good.But as a mobile phone, it is really painful.
