Chapter 206: Many forces emerged, and Sakata Wasteland was capped today

Southeast Asia.

The capital of Yue Monkey Kingdom is Hanoi.

Hanoi is located in the northwest of the Red River Delta, on the right bank of the Red River and at the confluence of the Red River and the Dun River. It is a must-pass destination whether traveling from the south to the north or from the inland to the coast.

This city not only has the largest river port in the north, but also has several railways connected here, making it the general hub of the northern highway.

However, it is worth mentioning that Hanoi is not the city with the highest GDP in the Yue Monkey Kingdom, but it is the closest city to the Dragon Kingdom, just southwest of Guangxi.

At this time, in a splendid box in a star-rated hotel in Hanoi, a group of well-dressed men and women in suits and leather shoes were full of smiles and toasting frequently.

"Mr. Buffett, this glass of wine is from me. Thank you for your willingness to invest 30 million US dollars in our Somethinggood shopping platform. I will do it first."

"I would also like to toast Mr. Buffett. Without your capital injection, my NinjaVan (Ability Logistics) may not be able to survive."

"I used to think that God did not exist, but now it seems that I do I am ignorant, these three glasses of wine are for Mr. Buffett.”

There were more than a dozen or twenty people in the box, and their attention had always been focused on Buffett, who had sparse gray hair, black glasses, and sharp eyes.

The reason is also very simple, because no one thought at that time that the world-shaking stock god would actually invest in their small Southeast Asian country.

And he is not investing in the planting industry, but in the Internet economy.

To put it simply, companies that are related to the Internet invest, such as online shopping platforms, cloud computing companies, express logistics, etc.

The most real feeling they have now is that they just tinkered with something at home, but a financial giant took a fancy to it, insisted on investing, and had to give them money.

Faced with the flattery from the bosses at the dinner table, Buffett did not show a cold face and responded with a smile: "No need to thank me, this is the reward you deserve for your efforts, but please also remember "Remember, we at Berkshire Hathaway have the direct management rights of your company."

He invests in these companies not because he thinks there is great potential in the Southeast Asian market, but to complete the "all-seeing test." Come.

As a member of the Wall Street Freemasons, money is no longer what he pursues, because as soon as he opens his eyes every day, his account will have dozens or millions of dollars more.

After the material foundation reached its peak, life became his pursuit.

If you want to increase the limit of life span, you cannot avoid the development of science and technology, and he knows very well whose hands the technology is in.

The other people in the box heard about the "management rights" and quickly laughed.

"That's natural. You can take over the management of the company at any time if you want."

"Don't worry, Mr. Buffett, there are restrictions in black and white, and we will not break our promises."< br>
“Yes, there is a contract.”

Because they were too eager to be invested by the stock gods, they all agreed to the decision to hand over management rights, but they still took the lead.

To put it simply, the company is usually managed by their founders, but in special times, Buffett has the right to directly intervene in the company's operations.

The reason he gave is also very legitimate, that is, he is afraid that they will not manage well, and he can help guide them in the right direction when necessary.

These Yue Monkey Country company bosses didn’t think much about it. After all, this is Buffett, once the richest man in the world. He is as rich as any country. He doesn’t take the management rights for development. Is it possible that he is plotting against their company? ?

......

The dinner lasted for about two hours, and when it was about to end, the company bosses still pretended to be drunk and praised Buffett's long experience.

After the show was over, Buffett also returned to the hotel suite.

The fund management secretary who followed him pushed up his glasses and said slightly puzzled: "Counting the newly invested companies tonight, President, we have invested in more than forty companies in the Monkey Country. This market Is the potential really so huge?”

She has also conducted private research and found that this area is actually not suitable for Internet investment because the Internet is not yet widely available.

With a population of 95 million, there are less than 1 million households with computers, and nearly 65% ​​of the country’s population has not yet used smartphones. The most important thing is that the 4G base stations are still commissioned to be built by Longguo, and they are incapable of doing so. To make.

To put it mildly, during the transitional period of the Internet, there is huge room for development.

To put it harshly, it has a poor industrial foundation and a poor Internet foundation. It doesn’t matter what you want. It is a proper agricultural country.

Buffett did not answer her in a hurry, but went to the sofa and sat down on his own. He skillfully took out the cigar box from the inner pocket of his suit and opened it, revealing two brown cigars inside.

He took out one and put it under his nose. After taking a deep breath to taste the aroma, he said lightly: "Investment should not only focus on the present, but should take a long-term view to see the final benefits."

" I understand.”

The secretary nodded in understanding.

She was actually confused, but she didn't dare to continue asking.

Although I don’t know why Buffett invested in Yuehou Enterprise, which is completely opposite to her previous investment style, she is just a secretary and cannot control what her boss does.

……

While Buffett was still making plans in Vietnam, the current CEO of Apple, Pou Ke, was not idle either. He personally came to Vientiane, the capital of Laos, to promote the new Apple 7 machine.

In the mobile phone market in Southeast Asia, Apple has always had a good market share, crushing other mobile phones.

Of course.

He is not just here for publicity.

If you want to increase your brand influence, investing in and building a factory is the best choice. It can not only solve local employment problems, but also supply mobile phones locally and reduce transportation costs.

However, after walking around for a few times, he also discovered that the hands of Longguo Enterprise were really long.

In terms of logistics and express delivery, YTO International and Best Huitong are the first to have faults, and the online shopping platform has also been faulted by Alibaba. It is a bit difficult to solve the root cause of Longxing Technology.

Since there is no way to solve the problem at the root, Pou Ke has already understood that this offensive and defensive battle may really have to be fought with money.

And the other side.

The United States on the other side of the ocean.

The Neuralink company located in San Francisco, at its research and development base, several experimental monkeys are being ruthlessly opened and implanted with the latest model of brain-computer interface.

In the observation room, Masik was watching attentively.

Ever since watching Chen Xing’s “PPT conference”, he felt an inexplicable sense of pressure. He increased his investment in brain-computer interfaces overnight, trying to get ahead of Longxing Technology Company. Make results.

However, this was already the ninety-sixth experiment. If it failed again, he would have to think about the feasibility of the technology.

"Squeak——"

The monkey on the experimental table screamed, and its body kept struggling, but because it was fixed, it couldn't move at all.

"Experimental Subject No. 96 has regained consciousness and has not yet shown any rejection reaction."

However, at this moment, the immobilized experimental monkey suddenly struggled violently, its eyes were bloodshot and red, and it kept baring its teeth and howling, as if it was suffering from some great pain, and it fell silent in the blink of an eye.

The experimenter who witnessed this scene had no expression on his face, picked up his notebook and recorded: "No. 96 had a severe rejection reaction."

Following this.

A few more monkeys are awake.

But without exception, they all developed severe rejection reactions within 3 minutes, and their brains died spontaneously.

Just when everyone thought that this experiment was the same as usual, another monkey slowly woke up.

The experimenter came to it and recorded it. He thought it would die within three minutes, but five minutes later, it was still alive and kicking, and it didn't adapt at all.

"Team leader, come here quickly."

The experimenter immediately called his boss.

A moment later. One after another people came to watch.

“Oh my God! A miracle happened!”

“There was no biological rejection. We have successfully developed it?”

“Try neuron connection.”

Masik, who was in the observation room, saw this scene and quickly went to the locker room to change into a white coat and went straight to the experimental area.

Chief of brain-computer interface R&D, Philip Skowo saw Masik’s arrival and immediately shared the good news:

“President, as you can see, our improvement direction is not the same. Wrong, the rejection problem has been gradually solved. "

"Are the neurons connected? "

Masik asked with a smile on his face.

"Not yet." Philip Skovo replied, looking at the assistant beside him and saying: "Prepare neuron connections."

However, as soon as he finished speaking, the monkey, who had been jumping around just now, suddenly had bloodshot eyes, scratched his head frantically, and kept roaring at Masik and the others.

As usual in experiments, death is the result of severe rejection.

After everyone was stunned, the experimenter who recorded the time reported the data: "Experimental Subject No. 101 suffered a severe rejection reaction, and the time to wake up was 17 minutes."

Although this experimental monkey also Although he died, Masik saw hope.

Because at the beginning, the monkey implanted with the brain-computer interface could not last for ten seconds, but now it can last for 17 minutes, and it will definitely be able to do so without rejection in the future.

As for why he is eager to do a brain-computer interface, it is also inseparable from "eternal life". Because he was influenced by science fiction movies, he wanted to know whether human brain data could be uploaded.

Compared to other people extending their physical lifespan, he hopes that he can upload his consciousness and achieve unlimited lifespan.

Of course.

This is just his final fantasy.

For now, he is doing brain-computer interface just to move in the direction of virtual reality. He knows very well how big the market is.

It is no exaggeration to say that if he is allowed to realize virtual reality, gaming, social interaction, and life will all usher in revolutionary changes, and all mankind will usher in a new era.

……

At the same time.

The other side.

Wall Street, New York.

In this world-class business district, the building standing in the center is particularly eye-catching.

It towers into the clouds, and the glass curtain wall shines dazzlingly in the sun, showing an unparalleled sense of modernity.

The entrance of the building is spacious and grand, and the automatic sensor door also welcomes every visitor, and this place is called Bailey Building.

As the name suggests.

This is the headquarters of Baile Group.

On the top floor of the Bailey Building, Maria was reporting the news she had learned.

"Longguo Eye Mail, Longxing Technology not only acquired sixteen copycat machine companies and integrated a large amount of production capacity, but also reached cooperation with more than a dozen parts suppliers."

" In addition, their company also admitted on Weibo that it has already launched a Longxing A series mobile phone, which may be a new flagship to enter the international market.”

When Maria finished her report, The long-haired handsome man sitting in the office chair pondered for a moment and asked: "I understand, is there any new progress on the alliance?"

"The World Bluetooth Alliance has decided to expel Longxing Technology Company. They You will no longer be able to use Bluetooth connection.”

Maria paused for a moment and continued: “Parfit, Pocket, and Mollenkopf are all planning to expand in Southeast Asia. In addition, the boss of MediaTek seems to have the idea to cooperate with us. ."

"MediaTek?"

"Yes, MediaTek."

After receiving the second confirmation, the handsome man's face flashed thoughtfully, and then relaxed. He said: "You can get in touch, he may be a good chess piece."

He is very clear about the attributes of the Southeast Asian market, and MediaTek processors can cope with this sinking market.

If we really have to fight a price war, then the more money we can save, the better.

“One more thing, there is a Longguo manufacturer CEO named Xu Jinshui, who said he has a way to deal with Longxing Technology Company.”

As soon as Maria finished speaking, the handsome man’s pupils A flash of surprise flashed in the deepest part, and he said slightly puzzled: "The CEO of Longguo manufacturer?"

"I heard that there is a grudge between them."

"So that's it."

"Do you want to use him?"

"Observe and observe first. You can find out more about him and don't lay the foundation for trouble."

"I understand."

After receiving permission, Maria also exited the office of the top leader, then stepped on high heels and walked quickly to her own office.

……

While all parties were surging with undercurrents and making arrangements, Long Kingdom had just ushered in the morning, and the light that arrived on time passed through the windows and illuminated the entire room brightly.

The light shone into his eyes, and Chen Xing also woke up from his sleep.

He lazily sat up from the bed, stretched out, rubbed his sleepy eyes and picked up his phone to check WeChat.

You don’t need to think about it, there are dozens of messages waiting to be processed.

"Forget it, we'll deal with it later, let's have breakfast first." Chen Xing didn't rush to deal with it, and turned off the screen of his phone directly.

Because I was really busy yesterday, I first discussed the parts supply chain, then went to Kunpeng Company to pick up the Hongmeng system, and then went to Tengfei Industrial Park to inspect and accept the 16-inch semiconductor silicon wafer and 10^20ArF photoresist. , he even forgot to eat dinner.

When I got home in the early morning, I grabbed a few biscuits to pad my stomach, and then went to bed. Now my stomach was already protesting.

When Chen Xing got dressed and walked out of the room, the range hood in the kitchen was working loudly. It was obvious that Liang Ruolan was making breakfast.

The advantage of living with your parents is that you can have a hot meal when you wake up.

Chen Yapeng, who was reading the newspaper on the sofa in the living room, heard the sound of the door opening. He immediately looked in the direction of Chen Xing and said, "Xiaoxing is awake? I want to tell you a happy news."

"Good morning dad, what's the happy event?" Chen Xing looked confused and walked to the sofa in the living room.

After Chen Xing sat down on the sofa, Chen Yapeng took out a pair of red scissors and said: "The R&D building and main office building of our Bantian base are capped today, so you have to go and cut the ribbon."

"Capped? So soon?"

Chen Xing was stunned for half a second, but if he thought about it carefully, it was indeed very recent.

According to the speed at which the Shenzhen construction team climbs the buildings, it takes three days to build one floor, and now it is indeed necessary to reach the capping stage.

“I’m not happy.” Chen Yapeng waved his hand and continued: “The building has only been completed now, and it will take time to decorate the interior, but I expect it to be put into use in early March.”
