Chapter 884 Don’t Just Pick up the Bargains
Summer in Los Angeles, thanks to the gentle sea breeze on the west coast, is much more comfortable than inland China.
Although the scorching sun is still dazzling and the light is still strong, the blue sky and blue sea environment make people feel like they are living in a dream all day long.
For a moment, people felt a little happy and unhappy.
At least that's the case for Fang Yuan, who follows Ruisi's diet and fitness plan to the letter all day long.
He is so cruel to himself.
Over the past few days, the curves of my figure have really improved, and my confidence has also increased by 200%.
Whenever evening comes, in the nearly 1,000-square-meter courtyard of the Mid-level Villa, a group of women are blatantly wearing bikinis and walking around with colorful drinks. It really looks like they are having a party.
In fact, after Ivanka, Panis, and Molly successfully led Zhao Li and Fang Yuan into evil, Wu Tao, the master, seemed to be a different kind of person.
It is impossible to cross the flowers. It is impossible to cross the flowers in this life.
At least in two lifetimes, he has not learned the character and frivolous temper of a libertine.
In desperation, I could only go back to my study, face the computer, and have sincere communication with the people of my motherland who were far away across the ocean.
Now, the online chat plug-in functions of Xiaonei.com are becoming more and more abundant.
Not only is daily communication not a problem, but the group function is embedded, and the seamless connection with the personal blog homepage makes the school network even more easy to use.
Therefore, the communication position between Wu Tao and Ding Lei was officially transferred from the traditional BBS to the instant chat tool.
Since creating this group, Wu Tao logs in every day to check it out.
Although it is difficult to meet other people due to the time difference, this does not prevent Wu Tao from understanding the dynamics of the three of them.
Recently, Ding Lei has become more down-to-earth. The theme of his blog has been changed to "Content is king, innovation is the way". He even updates the blog post every day below, writing down his understanding of these eight words and some other things. chicken soup.
It can be seen that there is quite a "no big deal" mentality.
Compared with Ding Lei's blog theme, Yang Ge's theme is much brighter, "The world is vast and there is a lot to do". It can be seen that after he devoted himself to production management, he was quite complacent.
As for Xiao Zixia, she was much more arrogant, 'vowing to plant red flags all over the barbarians'. His true nature as a third-generation red man was finally revealed, but he was confident in saying so.
At least with the merger and integration of Ericsson's mobile phone division, Lotus's international mobile phone market share has risen sharply in the past six months, and it has entered the same echelon as Motorola and Nokia, which is almost the same.
Yuanqi Technology also took this opportunity to steadily enter the club of multinational companies with annual revenue exceeding 10 billion US dollars.
After reading the three people's blogs, Wu Tao was about to quit when a message suddenly popped up in the group.
It’s from Ding Lei: “Boss, the cover character of Barron’s, awesome!”
Xiao Zixia even said simply: "Boss, I decided to start subscribing to Barron's from now on!"
Immediately afterwards, Yang Ge also bubbled up, "Boss, this is just a matter of silence. It's a blockbuster."
Wu Tao looked up at the clock on the wall. It was now around nine o'clock in the morning China time, which was exactly the time for work. No wonder all three of them were online.
After chatting with three people, I learned that since Barron’s magazine used him as the cover character of this issue and the interview was published as a cover article, the domestic media has been in a frenzy.
This is the first time a Chinese has appeared on the cover of a world-class financial weekly.
Various reports about Wu Tao were overwhelming, and the companies under his umbrella also became popular for a while, and their prices skyrocketed.
While I was in high spirits, a strong smell of coffee came.
Wu Tao raised his head and saw Panis coming in all directions. He was very surprised: "Why are you here?"
With the bloodline of the Morgan family, Panis has a bit of the charm of a Middle Eastern beauty between her brows, and her skin is a healthy wheat color, full and plump, with a hint of wildness.
Panis, who was only wearing a bikini, put down her coffee, supported the desk with both hands, showed her bulging upper body in front of Wu Tao and said: "On behalf of the Morgan family, I would like to invite you to New York as a guest. I hope you can agree."
"This..." Wu Tao couldn't help but hesitate. His schedule was very tight, and he only had two days left in Los Angeles. In these two days, he will also visit Palm Company and pay a visit to Jerry Yang of Yahoo Company.
These are all predetermined plans and it is really difficult to change them.
It was only recently that I asked Panis for help because of the payment system test of Tianjing Company. As a result, they agreed without saying a word and ordered the banks under the Morgan consortium to cooperate with Tianjing Company in conducting tests.
This is a favor after all.
Seeing Wu Tao's hesitation, Panis, who had always been proud, subconsciously put her fingers on the string of her bikini, "Please, as long as you promise me, you can do whatever you want."
Doing this is not considered a bribe. In fact, Panis doesn't mind having something happen with such a genius.
Wu Tao's heart moved, "Is it because of your brother Figo Morgan?"
"yes."
"Okay, I promise you." After Wu Tao said, he directly stopped Panis from taking off her bikini, "It doesn't have to be like this, after all, we are friends."
Early the next morning, when Wu Tao's motorcade arrived at the entrance of Palm Company, the cell phone in front of him rang.
I picked it up and saw that it was Wu Yingying's phone number.
It was early in the morning, it seemed there was something urgent. After the call was connected, Wu Yingying's voice came over eagerly: "Boss, Motorola has just released news that it plans to sell the Iridium satellite project. It is said that the asking price is very low, only 25 million US dollars."
"Project Iridium?" Wu Tao suddenly felt strange when hearing this word. But after thinking about it carefully, I subconsciously felt that I had heard of it before.
After pondering for a long time, she did not reply to Wu Yingying.
Until Wu Yingying asked again: "Do we want to participate in this matter?"
The reason why Wu Yingying is so concerned is because Wu Tao has said before that although the Internet winter is terrible, it is a good time for Tianqi Investment to pick up the slack.
After being urged by the other party, Wu Tao suddenly had an idea in his mind and finally remembered some clues about the Iridium Project.
At that moment, he decisively ordered: "This plan is a sinkhole, we must not touch it."
"Ah?" Wu Yingying was also extremely surprised, "Why?"
Wu Tao talked eloquently: "This is a communication engineering plan intended to replace the cellular system and expand signal coverage. It looks beautiful, but it is not practical at all. When it is actually implemented, even wealthy users cannot afford the cost of communication. Motorola wants to It’s not because we invested too much in this plan, I’m afraid our current achievements are far more than that.”
Therefore, don’t just pick it up when it’s cheap!
After hanging up the phone from Wu Yingying, Wu Tao felt faintly excited under his calm surface.
Because he remembers that the sale of the Iridium project was the beginning of Motorola's decline. In fact, in the current environment where the Internet bubble has collapsed, Motorola should have already encountered difficulties, otherwise it would not have sold the Iridium project at such a low price.
And now, it is a great opportunity for Yuanqi Technology to surpass Motorola!
