Precisely because of the existence of S-PC001, those companies that produce computers have been greatly impacted, and they are also developing such cheap gadgets.

But they found that they would lose money by developing this kind of thing for the same price. They really didn't understand how the other party could achieve such a low price for the hardware.

For example, a CPU with the same performance costs 150 US dollars, the same memory costs 950 US dollars, an ordinary monitor (the kind with a big butt) costs [-] US dollars, and an LCD one costs [-] US dollars. The motherboard costs US$[-] and the graphics card costs US$[-]. This does not include other additional things. This alone costs US$[-] to US$[-]. This does not include the operating system. So, how do they put it together? What about the one where the cost is controlled at $[-]?

QH Company, a long-established computer manufacturer, once sold 001 scientific calculators a year, and is now discussing with people in the laboratory how to develop an Internet-connected computer similar to the S-PC[-].

"This is impossible, absolutely impossible. How did they do it? If the labor cost is included, it will cost another fifty dollars." A researcher roared loudly.

A person from the information office said: "I heard that they are produced opposite. They can always create miracles over there, right?"

"Then what is the cost of the hardware? Even if we remove all labor, the cost can only be reduced by fifty dollars, which is good. But what about the system? You haven't calculated the cost of the system. If you look at the window system, it will cost several hundred dollars. ." The researcher's words caused silence in the conference room.

"Have they gone to the foundry opposite? What's going on?" A supervisor asked another question.

The person from the information office said: "I went there and got the purchase price of their accessories. I found that the cost was indeed $[-], including shipping costs, and the labor profit of the foundry there was also included."

This makes those people crazy. Everything is very reasonable and there is no problem.

While researchers from major factories were going crazy, Wall Street investment banks had already started conducting research in the entrepreneurial park. They found that there were thousands of companies here, with two or three people in small ones, and some in big ones. There are thousands of people here, and there are all kinds of companies here, from food development, to automobile companies, to high-tech companies, to Internet companies, everything is available. There is also an automobile company, Pan American Power, which produces car washes with the island country. ’s cars compete with each other in the North American market. It is the parent company of Continental.

Here, they found many companies growing wildly here, but they were not concerned with those traditional companies, they were concerned with high-tech companies. They saw several listed companies here, such as Si Ke, which is a manufacturing company. The network equipment company has already been listed on the market. Unexpectedly, there is actually a crouching tiger, hidden dragon here.

The information spread back to Wall Street, which immediately excited the fund companies and investment banks. Here, they discovered many start-ups with good futures.

A browser software called Pathfinder caught their attention. This software also appeared in the pre-installed software of S-PC001, but it requires a fee. On the S-PC platform, if customers want to use it, they need to do so once. You pay an initial fee of [-] US dollars, and each time you upgrade and update, you need to pay an additional [-] US dollars for the version upgrade, which may not be updated several times a year; you can also pay a [-] US dollars annual usage fee, and upgrade regularly every year without paying any fees. .

This is a patented product, the only one in the United States. They took a fancy to the potential of this company and made an estimate for them, reaching an astonishing estimate of one billion US dollars. However, the profitability of this company is very good. .

As sales of S-PC computers boomed, the browser Pathfinder also achieved great success.This month alone, it achieved a turnover of 800 million yuan.

It is perfectly compatible with other platforms, including window systems, the newly emerged L-OS system, and systems on fruit machines.

But it is mainly on the S-PC platform, which has the largest number of customers.

Pathfinder accepted the offer from Wall Street, but they also discovered that the company also distributed profits in advance.

"What's going on? The way they operate makes me feel very familiar."

"Yeah, where does this damn familiar feeling come from."

Then everyone thought of one thing and frowned, 'Technology Queen' Jennifer Connelly.

"It seems that with the power of example, haha..." What he said was ironic. They would encounter such things again in the future. It was really bad news.

Then they set their sights on another company, which is an online shopping company, Amejing Company. Amejing Company has already raised funds from Pacific Rim Group, with a financing amount of 20%, exceeding one billion US dollars. This company, which has not yet been listed, has a valuation of more than [-] billion US dollars during its angel round?

They were shocked. Unknowingly, there was a big company here, but their arrival was also welcomed. The boss of this company was a bald man, a very shrewd man, who had worked on Wall Street. They really don't like dealing with this, and the debt ratio of this business is somewhat high.

Through research, they discovered that this company was actually a heavy-asset network company, because it had established a large number of warehouses in important cities across North America, acquired a logistics company, and had an important cooperative relationship with a used goods recycling fund.

If someone looks at it decades later, this company is somewhat like a combination of JD + Caiji Inn, which is more reasonable than another North American online shopping company in later generations.

But its debt ratio is too high. If it didn't have such a high debt ratio, it might be a company worth hundreds of billions.

A 900-billion-dollar company has a debt of 300 billion. How this company survived is puzzling to everyone. It is mainly warehouse and logistics companies. Now they need financing, but the current financing scale is a bit large. It is estimated to be 800 billion. That was a long time ago. Now calculated based on the high price-to-earnings ratio, this is a company of nearly [-] billion U.S. dollars, and the debt is now [-] billion U.S. dollars.

Judging from the operating conditions of the past three years, the turnover is growing crazily and the profits are growing steadily. However, it will definitely not be valued at US$300 billion. If they want to invest in this company, there will definitely be a premium.

Another company that they both love and hate.
