Silicon Valley

These consortiums in the United States have gone through a hundred years, and their forces and relationships are intertwined. As Henry becomes stronger, he can feel a huge spider web in front of him. The power of these chaebols controls the direction of the United States, and it is not comparable to Henry as a "newcomer". But Henry's rapid rise was too terrifying, making them feel a deep sense of crisis, so that they were like enemies and dealt with Henry together, just like dealing with the Rothschild family back then.

In the new Internet industry, they naturally cannot compete with Henry, but in traditional industries, such as energy, automobiles, food, military industry, finance, aircraft, etc., it is a situation of siege and interception. Henry is not afraid of civil competition. However, the government's orders have fallen sharply in recent years.

Although Henry is also trying his best to support his own political power, in the final analysis, it cannot compare with the accumulation of others over the past century. At the same time, the United States will not allow the existence of a behemoth power over the country.

Henry carefully considered Charles' suggestion for two days. At the same time, he also asked people to investigate the information of Somalia and Ethiopia. According to the information, there are thirty or forty armed warlords in Somalia, large and small, and the total strength is less than 60,000 people. The Ethiopian police and army to maintain law and order barely add up to 200,000. However, the annual military expenditure is less than 350 million US dollars, which is not as expensive as a Raptor F22 produced by the God of War and an F22. All need $400 million! It's hard to imagine how rubbish Ethiopia's armed forces are! Even if all 200,000 troops were pulled out, they would still be a mob!

On the other hand, Blackwater has a normal armed force of more than 300,000, with a large number of elites and well-equipped weapons. It is not weaker than the armies of world powers. In addition, Blackwater Base has millions of orphans who have been militarized and educated. They have started to grow up and are the best and most loyal soldiers, and they are well educated and will be able to run the country in the future!

Henry didn't think about himself, but also thought about the Blackwater orphans. No matter what, he had to find a place to live for them. Undoubtedly, occupying Somalia is a good choice. Henry remembered that when the Iraq War broke out in 2003, the United States was mired in the quagmire of war, and naturally had no time to take care of it. At that time, it was time to capture Ethiopia!

Henry then replied to Charles and decided to establish a country. Then, Sean was summoned, and Charles planned this.

In the middle of the night on December 1, a war suddenly broke out on the border between Ethiopia and Eritrea. The fighting was fierce and there were countless casualties. Ethiopia and Eritrea, who were about to sign a peace agreement, have started to rattle each other again. A week later, 50,000 elite Blackwater troops arrived in Somalia secretly, and then a melee between the warlords was detonated, and the war once spread to the whole country.

Henry has no doubts about whether Blackwater can take Somalia, and all he has to do now is to make money and develop technology.

Yesterday, Sharp held a product launch event, launching the world's first mobile phone with a camera.

"Welcome to Sharp's product launch conference. In the past, mobile phones could only be used to make calls, and then developed to send text messages and surf the Internet... But today, Sharp wants to tell everyone that in addition to these functions, mobile phones can also be used for Photograph!

On Christmas Day, December 25, Sharp will release the world's first mobile phone with a built-in 110,000-pixel CCD camera - JSH04! ! ! "

When the reporters heard this, they couldn't help but be shocked. Mobile phones can take pictures, don't they want to replace cameras? It's just that this pixel has only 110,000 pixels, which is too rubbish!

Henry saw this product launch, and the corners of his mouth rose, revealing a trace of disdain.

"The Japanese chaebol companies don't have to think about it, let's take your Sharp first! The mere 110,000-pixel mobile phone is so embarrassing to be released!!!"

Henry picked up the phone and dialed Harrison, the CEO of Williams Electronics.

"Hello, Chairman, do you have any instructions?"

"Sharp's latest product launch, have you seen it?"

"Look!" Harrison said and nodded, "What does the chairman mean to ask Williams Electronics to immediately launch a new mobile phone to snipe Sharp's JSH04 mobile phone?"

"That's right!" Henry asked, "How many pixels do our mobile phones have now?"

"Since the introduction of Bluetooth mobile phones, Williams Electronics has been working on camera phones. After more than three years, we have finally developed a 2-megapixel mobile phone!" Harrison replied proudly, "and our mobile phone also supports optical zoom!"

Hearing this, Henry was shocked, the mobile phones of Williams Electronics Company are so awesome!

It seems that there are many talents, R\u0026D funds are in place, and the development speed is fast!

Mobile phones that support optical zoom will not come out until 2004, which is almost three years earlier. This mobile phone has a crushing advantage over all current mobile phones! ! !

After the phone was shot, it was almost time to launch the smartphone, the iPhone! Henry has been in this area for a long time. Whether it is Apple's mobile phone system or multi-touch technology, he invested heavily in development. The era of selling kidneys is coming soon.

After the launch of the smartphone, the mobile terminal should be deployed immediately, and the speed of making money is only fast but not slow!

Social software such as Facebook and WeChat can shine!

O2O industries such as Uber taxis and food delivery will flourish!

Henry only needs to take the lead step by step and monopolize all the entrances to the mobile terminal, let's see how other people play!

"Harrison, let the factory prepare for the production of camera phones as soon as possible!" Henry paused and said, "It's better to have it on the market on Christmas Day!"

"Okay, no problem! With the current scale of Hongnian Technology Factory, at least 1 million mobile phones can be produced in half a month!"

"Let the Hongnian Technology Factory increase the production capacity. I am very confident in this mobile phone. At least 20 million units can be sold!"

"Chairman, the manufacturing cost of this phone is about $300, so what's our selling price?"

Henry thought for a while and said, "Such a high-end camera phone naturally has to take the high-end route! Hmm...then it's priced at $499!!!"

"Then what's the name of this phone?"

"Williams vivo camera phone!"

Harrison then began to prepare for the launch of the new phone as Henry ordered. At the same time, specially for Sharp, a product launch was also held! At the press conference, major media from all over the world were invited, including ABC TV, Taixing TV, YouTube and so on. The whole venue had no less than 1,000 people, which was quite grand!

After Harrison came to power and made some high-sounding remarks, he immediately announced the new mobile phone from Williams Electronics. The phone is an exact copy of the Nokia 1110 that went on sale in 2005, and it is also Nokia's best-selling candy bar, with 250 million units sold worldwide. The design of the mobile phone is very simple, the shell colors are black, blue, gray, white, red, etc., and there is an amber background light...

When Harrison announced that the phone had 2 megapixels and had support for optical zoom. All the reporters present were shocked, such a mobile phone can be called a camera! A new mobile phone just released by Japan's Sharp is also a camera phone, but the pixel is only 110,000. The gap between the two is almost in the sky and the other in the ground!

In addition, Sharp's JSH04 camera phone is priced at $450, while Williams Electronics' vivo camera phone is priced at $499, even more cost-effective than Sharp phones! Compared with the Sharp mobile phone, it is a complete failure. Sharp's JSH04 mobile phone suddenly became the laughing stock of the reporters. It's a shame that it claims to be the world's first camera phone. Williams Electronics must have developed a camera phone long ago, but it has not been released!

After the product launch conference, Sharp Company got the news very quickly, so angry, the whole person is not well...

"President, I didn't expect Williams Electronics to have such a strong development capability. Our mobile phones are not competitive with theirs! So far, we have prepared a total of 5 million JSH04 camera phones. If the price is not reduced, I'm afraid it won't even sell!"

In fact, the pictures taken by 110,000 pixels are very blurry. The beautiful and ugly women take pictures with the JSH04 mobile phone, which is almost the same... Sharp's JSH04 mobile phone will not catch fire even without the sniping from Williams Electronics. of!

Ichiro Yamada, the president of Sharp, scolded angrily: "Williams Electronics will not release it sooner or later, but it will not release the vivo mobile phone until our mobile phone is released. It is clearly targeting us Sharp Corporation! If you know They have 2-megapixel camera phones, how are we going to humiliate ourselves with 110-megapixel phones?”

"President, this is the end. Only by reducing the price of JSH04 mobile phone photos can they be sold, thereby reducing losses!"

"Then it's down to $399!"

"$399 is still too expensive, I'm worried customers won't buy it..."

"$399 first, if sales don't go well, drop the price again!"

Sharp immediately announced to the outside world that the price of the JSH04 phone was reduced to $399. However, not many people are interested in the JSH04 mobile phone after the price reduction. In contrast, the Williams vivo mobile phone, although expensive, but countless people are full of expectations for it.

Although 2 million pixels is not very high, it is not bad, and it also supports optical zoom. It is simply a low-end digital camera that can make phone calls. Who's okay to go out with a bulky camera? However, a mobile phone is a must-have. With a Williams vivo mobile phone, you can make calls and take pictures! Especially some young girls who like fashion, can't wait to buy such a mobile phone immediately!

After more than ten days, the long-awaited Christmas has finally arrived.

This morning, as soon as the Williams store opened, there were countless young men and women lined up at the door.

Williams Electronics told the outside world that the number of mobile phones this time is limited, only 1 million units. If they are sold out, they will only be available after a month. But who wants to wait a month? ! There are many rich people, not bad money! As a result, there is a lively situation of queuing up to buy Williams vivo mobile phones all over the United States!

At the same time listed Sharp JSH04 mobile phone is no one cares.

Only 110,000 pixel mobile phone still want to take pictures? Shoot a yarn!

The 2 million pixel Williams vivo mobile phone is so tall, it is simply a mobile phone that Bai Fumei will buy, and the 110,000 pixel Sharp JSH04 mobile phone, even the short and poor don't bother to buy it!

If it's a friend's class reunion or something, everyone else will take out a Williams vivo phone, and if you take out a Sharp JSH04 phone, how embarrassing this TM is!

In one morning, 1 million Williams vivo phones were sold out. The Sharp JSH04 mobile phone sold a total of only 100 units in the United States! The difference of 10,000 times is really ridiculous. Stores all over the country have returned to Sharp, saying that this kind of junk sells for $400. Who would be willing to buy it? !

Sharp has no choice. Although the manufacturing cost of the mobile phone is only 220 US dollars, Sharp, distributors and retailers have to make money. If they don't sell them for 399 US dollars, how can Sharp make money?

Sharp Corporation.

"President, there are many returns from all over the world, so we can only sell them at a loss. Otherwise, the 5 million JSH04 mobile phones cannot be sold and can only be stored in the warehouse, and the warehouse management fee is also a huge expense!"

Yamada Ichiro thought that the camera phone was a big gimmick, so he decided to produce 5 million mobile phones in one go, ready to sell on Christmas day, hoping to create a miracle! But he didn't expect that a miracle was created, but not as he hoped...

No comparison no harm! The 2 million pixels of the Williams vivo mobile phone is simply a knife deeply inserted into the chest of the JSH04 mobile phone!

The original innovative mobile phone has become an inferior product in an instant, and it can't be sold!

Yamada Ichiro sighed: "Come on, it's $300 a piece!"

The profits of dealers and retailers must not be reduced, at least $100 will be split. So, the money you lose can only be recognized by yourself. Sharp loses tens of dollars in selling a mobile phone, and the loss is huge when other resources such as manpower and material resources are counted. What's more worrying is that 5 million mobile phones may not be sold.

At this time, Henry and Harrison are discussing the development of cheap mobile phones to sweep the global low-end mobile phone market. The reason why Nokia's Nokia 1110 mobile phone can sell 250 million units is cheap and cost-effective.

"What's the cost of a 100-pixel camera phone that doesn't support optical zoom?" Henry asked. The $499 phone is still too expensive, and most current phones are around $200. The low-end market has a large base, and although the profit of each unit is small, the money earned is no less than that of the high-end!

"The cost is almost $250!"

$250? Henry thought about it and said, "Then let's set the price at $350. When the sales of Williams vivo mobile phones are weak, we will launch this mid-range product."

Williams Electronics owns the Williams store enough to maximize profits.

Henry wants to make Japanese companies lose their heads, suppress one by one, and finally make them go bankrupt and become a tragic fate of being acquired...
