381, the control of speech

Xiong Baizhou's personal charm is reproachable, and he is indeed the controlling shareholder of the largest home appliance retail chain in South China, and the boss behind an emerging electronics factory. It is said that he has other businesses in his hands. In addition, he is also a member of the CPPCC in Guangdong City.

This was the result of the telephone communication across the ocean just now. Abel did not understand what kind of position "CPPCC member" was. Chen Liqing explained it on the phone, but the vice president of Qualcomm still couldn't understand.

"It is a senior social person who has the right to suggest all official behaviors and civil actions in Guangdong City." Chen Liqing tried to explain it again in simple and easy-to-understand popular sentences.

"Do you look a bit like a US councillor?" Abel asked on the phone.

Chinese CPPCC members and US city councillors are essentially different in nature, but their responsibilities are indeed a little similar.

"Forget it, it's a bit similar." Chen Liqing simply said.

She was worried that the more she said it, the more confused she became. In fact, most Chinese people now cannot understand which four sets of "four teams" are, let alone the Americans who are separated from each other.

So Xiong Baizhou's identity outline became more and more obvious. He was an official businessman with a certain influence in Guangdong City, and Qualcomm took the initiative to invite others to visit and negotiate chip business, but the component department did not pay much attention to it.

Albert could probably understand Emer's thoughts. First of all, Qualcomm is a company that develops world's top communication technology but does not make specific products. At most, it is to produce components such as chips and processors.

Because Qualcomm now mainly relies on technology patent fees to make money, for example, it sells its own unique technology to electronic equipment manufacturers in the world. Every time this company sells a product, it needs to share a little profit to Qualcomm.

This is the source of truly mastering the production chain and it also proves what "technology is the primary productivity."

Secondly, Emer always wears tinted glasses to Asians. Although she has not reached the level of racial discrimination, she always does not believe that people with yellow skin have the potential to explore, especially Chinese officials often come here to show.

Abel sighed in his heart. Emer's skill level is very high, and he will not punish Emer for being neglected by Xiong Baizhou, but Emer's behavior is not a business attitude.

When Qualcomm was first established, it was intended to face the whole world, and personal emotions could not be brought into the company's daily affairs.

"Mr. Xiong, Manager Chen often mentioned you to me, and I was negligent." Abel is the vice president of Qualcomm and intends to take the blame with an apology.

"It's okay, I actually only have one business card in my pocket. I can't even give it to you if you come." Xiong Baizhou replied with a smile, soft and hard, neither humble nor arrogant, and by the way he handed over his golden business card.

"Fortunately, Mr. Xiong did not turn his back." Emmer heard it below and shrugged.

"I have a big face, and it's too hard to turn against each other, so I usually don't do that."

Xiong Baizhou ignored the little complaints in Emmo's words and even mute him.

This answer is typical American humor, with a kind laugh in the conference room, and most people have a little fond of Xiong Baizhou's witty answers.

Qualcomm Vice President Abel asked after the commotion subsided: "Boss Xiong said there is a business worth 1 billion yuan to do with Qualcomm?"

"It's $1 billion." Xiong Baizhou corrected his statement, then pointed to the mobile glass whiteboard in the conference room and said, "Can I use it?"

"Please."

Xiong Baizhou nodded, glanced at Guo Zijing, who was obsessed with both eyes. He smiled confidently and walked to the glass plate to write an English letter.

“rih.”

"This word means wealth, I believe everyone understands it." Xiong Baizhou said, pointing to the glass plate.

No one responded in the audience. They were not deliberately shattering the situation, but the question was too simple.

Sure enough, Xiong Baizhou added "er" after "rih", and the adjective became the noun "riher".

"rih is rich, and riher is rich, so how can we become rich?" Xiong Baizhou asked again.

There was still no sound in the audience, but the audience's concentration was obviously a little better than at the beginning.

After Xiong Baizhou paused briefly, he found that no one answered, and the smile on his face still changed. Instead, he continued to write a word "ork" on the glass plate, and asked again: "Can work make us rich?"

Finally, some people felt that Xiong Baizhou was always asking and answering, and began to respond politely: "no!"

"Yes." Xiong Baizhou smiled even brighter when he heard someone's response: "Work will not make us rich, but will only make our boss rich."

"Hahaha." Another burst of laughter came from below.

Xiong Baizhou's answer is funny and accurate.

Guo Zijing was thinking in her heart while looking at Xiong Baizhou. In fact, Adam was considered a senior worker in this conference room, and only Xiong Baizhou was the one who really considered the boss.

At this time, Xiong Baizhou wrote another word.

“finang?”

finang means financial management, Xiong Baizhou asked again: "Can financial management make us rich?"

“no!”

There were more people answering this time, and Xiong Baizhou also responded with a smile: "The financial management in the bank will not make us rich, but it will make President Bush more confident when fighting."

The US president in 1995 was George Walker Bush, also known as "Bosh Old Man". His most famous incident was to defeat Iraq and impose economic sanctions on it, but the American people took a negative attitude towards this war.

So Xiong Baizhou used Bush as a stalk and received applause.

Xiong Baizhou nodded and expressed his gratitude for the applause, and turned to write the words, but this time there were two.

"Astitution and trend".

These two words mean "constitution" and "trend". Xiong Baizhou did not use rhetorical questions this time, but a simple affirmation sentence. He pointed to these two words and said, "This is the way to make us rich."

A "good student" asked a question that was very proud of his face: "Why do you say that?"

"Because most of the ways to become rich people are written into the law," Xiong Baizhou said lightly.

This is a very cold and requires insightful joke, but Ivy League graduates who can work in Qualcomm, including Berkeley, Stanford, and Santa Clara.

These people reacted very quickly, and gradually someone laughed knowingly after understanding, and finally the entire conference room was filled with joy.

Xiong Baizhou stood leisurely in front. His deep accumulation and mastery of American humor was very good. A few simple questions and words won the appreciation and recognition of most audiences. Even Emer felt that Xiong Baizhou, a yellow-skinned Asian, was different, and these would become the foundation for the future.

When the laughter in the conference room gradually faded, Xiong Baizhou picked up the cotton cloth and wiped off the "Application Constitution", leaving only the "tread trend", and his expression suddenly became serious.

"Actually." Xiong Baizhou made the volume and his eyes were bright and he glanced: "Millions are all products of trends!"

This time, Xiong Baizhou himself explained one after another like a storm.

"Why are the rich people all the products of trends? Because when trend changes, what is compared is not the size of the individual's personal economic strength, but the speed of reaction."

"The first industrial revolution was that machines replaced manual labor, so with steam engines and ships, the second industrial revolution brought mankind into the electrical age, with aircraft and cars, in these two era changes, if you can seize a little opportunity, you may be Boeing, Ford, or Siemens, as your grandfather."

"Now, we are facing the third industrial revolution." Xiong Baizhou slowed down his pace again and said slowly.

Off the audience, including Qualcomm's vice president Abel, listened very carefully.

Xiong Baizhou turned around and pointed to the word "trend" and said, "The third industrial revolution should be called the information control technology revolution. It produced satellites, computers, and even bioethics. We are fortunate to be born in such an era. Should we seize the opportunity to become a member of the rich?"

The audience was a little quiet, because Xiong Baizhou's topic was too macro.

But it doesn't matter. Xiong Baizhou has a way to achieve a macro to micro leap. He suddenly pointed to Emmer of the component part and said:

"Emer, you work hard and smart, so you have the current social status, but what I want to say is that what really makes you get so much reward is this era, because the work you are engaged in is the industry in the hot spots, and it is the industry that is needed by the times."

Emer was suddenly named by Xiong Baizhou, and moved her butt a little uneasy. When she looked at Xiong Baizhou, she felt a little pressure.

However, Xiong Baizhou didn't have much energy to pay attention to him because he still had to continue to fool him.

"This is an era with the most chaotic models and the best opportunities in all kinds of opportunities. The strong are the only ones who are in charge and the weak are withdrawing from the world. On the surface, the market is being reshuffled, but behind it is actually elimination. Only by keeping pace with the times can the fittest survive!

"Baoba......"

As soon as Xiong Baizhou finished speaking, a man clapped his hands. It was not Abel sitting in the front, but the old American man who suddenly walked in halfway through Xiong Baizhou. At that time, almost everyone's attention was attracted by Xiong Baizhou, and only Xiong Baizhou saw it.

"I didn't see anyone in the office. It turned out that I was here to attend the class." The old man said with a smile.

"This is our president, Mr. Drake." Abel quickly stood up and introduced him, and then introduced Xiong Baizhou's identity and intentions to Drake.

Drake smiled and listened to the introduction, looked at Xiong Baizhou and said, "I think what Mr. Xiong said just now can be worth 1 million US dollars."

Xiong Baizhou smiled calmly. Companies like Qualcomm have long been managed by professional managers. Drake's status in Qualcomm may be similar to Liu Qingfeng, and the president is just the worker with the greatest power. He may have certain option rewards, but it will definitely not be much.

So Xiong Baizhou didn't fluctuate much after knowing Drake's identity, and even joked according to the topic: "It seems that I just need to build a business quota of 999 million US dollars."

There was another burst of laughter in the conference room. Xiong Baizhou had a thorough understanding of this American humor. In contrast, he also showed the Chinese's confidence style in front of Americans.

"What is going on about this $999 million business?" Xiong Baizhou brought up the next topic again: "There was a sleeping lion in the ancient East. Now it woke up. It has a population base of 1.2 billion, about 600 cities, and an area of ​​9.6 million square kilometers. If you spend $1 billion, you can't even blister it."

"What is Mr. Xiong planning to do?"

Drake asked curiously, if it was the beginning and the end of the song just now, but this is also the most important part.

Only by collecting well can the lingering sound be achieved for three days.

"My Aisheng Electronics has been purchasing Qualcomm chips. The 6,000 units in the early stage have basically been used up. Now I want to continue purchasing." Xiong Baizhou first raised a small question and asked for directions.

"The popularity of VD in the Chinese market is obvious. A few years ago, not only did we miscalculate the situation, but Samsung, Sony and Philips also made a wrong judgment." Abel knew about the cooperation projects between Aisheng and Qualcomm, so he asked: "How much is Mr. Xiong planning to purchase?"

“100,000 units.”

Xiong Baizhou suddenly increased by more than 10 times, but Abel was not surprised. At present, the Chinese VD market is estimated to have sales of 300,000 units this year, but it has not reached its peak yet.

"Mr. Bear is planning to give us a discount?" Abel continued.

100,000 units have an estimated sales of RMB 300 million, and nearly US$4,000. Coupled with this wonderful speech by the Chinese, the modest discount is not too much.

But Xiong Baizhou shook his head and simply spit out a word: "no!"

Then Xiong Baizhou said: "100,000 units are just the early numbers. In the future, our country and Asia's VD sales will definitely not be the only number. However, what I want to talk to Qualcomm about is not the VD project, but about the competition between DMA and G**."

Hearing these two simple letters, not only Drake but also Adam suddenly became serious, but most Qualcomm management in the conference room curled their smiles.

g** is called global systemformobileunis abbreviation, meaning global mobile communication system; dma is the English abbreviation of code division multiple access, it is a new and mature wireless communication technology developed in spread spectrum communication technology.

g** is produced in Europe. Today's mobile phones such as Motorola and Ericsson use this system, and dma is a masterpiece of Qualcomm.

If you regard the VD chip as a small project branch of Qualcomm's semiconductor research, then promoting DMA to the world is Qualcomm's main goal now. The collection of this patent fee is very terrifying, because as long as the electronic devices using Qualcomm signal base stations need to be paid.

"It's a pity that our country is not able to develop these 2g and 3g communication systems now. Fortunately, Huawei has worked hard seven years ago, and I can't do better than Ren Zhengfei," Xiong Baizhou looked at Drake and Abel with a smile, but his heart was ruthless:

"Dog Honey Qualcomm now lets you make some money first. After I set up Zhou Mei's plan, I will join forces with Huawei to squeeze your living space."

"What does Mr. Xiong plan to do?" President Drake asked cautiously.

"Aisheng wants to develop mobile phones, and he plans to apply for a mobile phone license from the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications in the future. I need Qualcomm's cooperation here." Xiong Baizhou finally said what he wanted to say after a long period of preparation.

To summarize it in one sentence, it is, "VD is not very profitable. If you really want to do big things, then support me in making mobile phones."
