Chapter 317 Change the Future!

"Mr. Li, I don't quite understand why you want to acquire a small company like Lenovo?" Dongfang Yuqin frowned slightly and said. In her opinion, the Hanka developed by Lenovo is good, but it will be eliminated sooner or later.

Li Zetian smiled and said: "Large companies all develop from small companies. Although Lenovo is currently small, it has great development potential."

Dongfang Yuqin nodded and asked: "Chinese companies always want to have absolute controlling rights. If you put forward a 60% holding requirement, aren't you afraid of their rejection?"

When Li Zetian heard this, he turned to look out the window and said calmly: "If you refuse, there is no need to exist!" Li Zetian is confident that with his current ability, it is really easy to block Lenovo.

In fact, facing the threat from Li Zetian, Lenovo was too small to resist. Now Lenovo only has one product, Lenovo Hanka. However, there are so many Chinese cards on the market. When users buy personal computers, they naturally like to buy computers that already come with Chinese cards. It is rare to buy Chinese cards separately. Therefore, Hanka's sales largely depend on computer manufacturers. The development of China's own personal computers is slow, and they are basically foreign personal computers. Among them, Mango Computer accounts for the largest proportion, accounting for more than 56.5% of the market share.

If Li Zetian intends to support other Hanka companies, Lenovo will definitely be forced into bankruptcy. The Chinese Academy of Sciences and Lenovo understand this very well.

Therefore, in just three days, the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the associated company came to a conclusion, and they were willing to transfer 60% of Lenovo's shares to Li Zetian.

Li Zetian was not surprised when he received the news. Lenovo is just a company that develops Hanka, and it is not an important enterprise. There is no need for the Chinese Academy of Sciences to cling to it. Instead of watching Lenovo go bankrupt, it is better to accept Li Zetian's kindness and pull it together. An investment will help the company develop and grow.

The purpose of establishing Lenovo by the Chinese Academy of Sciences was actually to make money. Not many years after China's reform and opening up, the economy was still very backward. As we all know, scientific research is expensive, but the country has no money, what should we do? As a result, the Chinese Academy of Sciences had to find ways to make money on its own, and Lenovo came into being.

A week later, the people sent by Li Zetian reached an agreement with the Chinese Academy of Sciences and Lenovo. The umbrella company invested 5 million yuan in financing Lenovo and held 60% of Lenovo's shares. In fact, Lenovo is making a lot of money because its current valuation does not reach 5 million yuan at all. Li Zetian saw that it is a Chinese company and has development potential, so he acquired it at a premium!

Li Zetian successfully invested in Lenovo, causing quite a stir in the industry.

Originally, Lenovo was the leader, but now that it has accepted Li Zetian's investment and cooperated with other powerful companies, its future development will naturally be smooth, crushing other Hanka companies. However, everyone also knows that Hanka is just a replacement product. When Intel's microprocessor is powerful enough, Hanka will have no place to play. Therefore, Lenovo has already planned to develop a personal computer. However, the company did not have enough funds to start the project. In the previous life, Lenovo did not launch its own computers until the 1990s. Before that, it could only serve as an agent for foreign personal computers.

Li Zetian had no objection to Lenovo's desire to develop its own personal brand of computers, and even praised it.

The personal computer market is huge. Why not make this pie bigger together?

Two companies must make more money than one company.

Liu Chuanzhi is now high-spirited. Although he is still the president of Lenovo, he is no longer the same as before. With the support of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and Li Zetian behind him, who dares to underestimate him? Lenovo has become one of the top technology companies in Zhongguancun!

At this time, he was talking remotely to Li Zetian.

Li Zetian said: "Lenovo's products are too single, and there are many projects to develop personal computers, which I very much support. In addition, I think Lenovo can also seize another opportunity."

Liu Chuanzhi was slightly startled and couldn't help but ask: "Mr. Li, what kind of opportunity is this?"

"Chinese pager!!!" Li Zetian said firmly, "There is no noon pager in the world. This is Lenovo's opportunity! Lenovo can not only develop the world's first Chinese pager, but can even develop the world's first A Chinese character paging standard, so that you can occupy the most advantageous position!!"

When Liu Chuanzhi heard this, his eyes lit up, lightning flashed in his brain, and he couldn't help being surprised, "The outside world has always said that Chronos Li is a genius and has a wise vision. After today's conversation, it is indeed true! Chinese pager He saw such a huge business opportunity at a glance!"

"Mr. Li, have you decided to hand over such a good project to Lenovo?" Li Chengzhi asked his doubts.

"Haha, it's just a Chinese pager, no big deal. Besides, isn't Lenovo my company now?" Li Zetian said calmly, as if the Chinese pager was just mosquito meat and he looked down upon it. However, it is true. Not to mention that the pager market is highly competitive, with giants like Motorola and Ericsson. In addition, within a few years, pagers will be eliminated just like Hanka! Under the influence of Li Zetian in this life, Apple entered the mobile phone market early. Although it is still in the research and development stage, once it succeeds, it will sweep the mobile phone market and rapidly promote the development of mobile communications! The pager will probably end your life earlier than in previous lives!

Liu Chuanzhi said quickly: "Of course it's your company, you are the big boss of the company!"

When Li Zetian heard this, he nodded and said immediately: "The Chinese pager project must be fast. As far as I know, Inspur is contacting Motorola to jointly develop Chinese pagers. However, don't worry, I will also transfer some talents from the United States to help Lenovo." Company develops Chinese pager!”

"Well, thank you, Mr. Li!!"

Li Zetian smiled and said: "Okay, let's work hard to develop Lenovo. I hope that next time I come to China, I can see a different and very powerful company!"

“Don’t worry, it will definitely happen!!!”

After hanging up the phone, Li Zetian raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a smile.

After all, Li Zetian is still Chinese and is still willing to support the development of Chinese enterprises on the premise of ensuring his own interests. Learning from history, you cannot put all your eggs in one basket. Lenovo is another guarantee for Li Zetian.

Li Zetian calmed down and after taking care of Lenovo, he couldn't help but think of Huawei. The current Huawei company is less than a year old and does not have its own brand products. It is acting as an agent for switches from Galaxy Networks. If Li Zetian wants to invest in Huawei at this moment, the other party will definitely want it.

However, Galaxy Networks is an American company, and Li Zetian does not want American companies to dominate Huawei. Even if you want to invest in shares, you must use an umbrella company. The umbrella company is an overseas offshore holding company that has nothing to do with the United States. It can maintain the independence of Huawei. Even if Huawei develops in the future and competes with Galaxy Networks, Li Zetian can accept it. of.

Before the Internet bubble, Cisco in its previous life had a market value of more than 600 billion U.S. dollars. Galaxy Networks in this life is estimated to be similar, but its subsequent market value is not even 200 billion U.S. dollars. Therefore, Li Zetian plans to sell a large number of shares before the bubble bursts and instead hold a large number of shares in Huawei.

Moreover, you can make more money by selling the shares at a high price and buying them back at a low price.

At this time, Li Zetian decided to let Huawei develop for a while. The company is currently unknown and its scale is so small. It would be too strange if he suddenly sent someone to acquire it.

Li Zetian's main energy returned to the United States.

Artificial intelligence challenges professional chess masters and gradually attracts media attention. However, what makes Li Zetian quite depressed is that for some powerful masters, artificial intelligence basically loses more than wins, let alone challenge for the championship. Li Zetian speculated that on the one hand, the algorithm is not good enough, and on the other hand, it may be that the computing speed of the current Solar Storm-II supercomputer is not powerful enough. The human brain is mysterious and its complexity is far beyond that of a supercomputer.

In the artificial intelligence laboratory, Li Zetian frowned and said: "Now it seems that it is difficult for an artificial intelligence supercomputer to challenge the world chess champion. Fortunately, we did not promote it with great fanfare and invite the world champion to compete, otherwise it would be too embarrassing. We will definitely acquire IBM, HP and other companies in the future to add insult to injury.”

After a pause, Li Zetian continued: "Then wait until ARM develops a more powerful microprocessor, and Clay Labs develops a more powerful supercomputer. At the same time, the Artificial Intelligence Laboratory also has time to develop more powerful algorithms!"

IBM dared to challenge the world chess championship in 1997, and now it is 1988. Li Zetian suddenly felt that he was a little eager for quick success, arrogant, and arrogant.

Li Zetian couldn't help but trembled physically and mentally. He took a drink of water to calm down.

"Honey, I feel like I've gained a lot of weight!"

Li Zetian was doing self-reflection and thinking about the future of artificial intelligence. Yu Jingqiu had just finished taking a shower, and then looked in the mirror and said with a frown.

"Exercise more, such as dancing, and you can also lose weight..." When Li Zetian said this, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration and said excitedly, "My dear, I will have someone develop a dance machine that will allow you to dance and lose weight!!"

"Dancing machine?" Yu Jingqiu showed a confused expression.

Li Zetian explained: "It is a kind of game console - a music rhythm game. The biggest difference from traditional video games is that traditional video games use a remote control stick plus buttons or a four-button handle, while the dance machine uses the player's hands and feet. Dance of feet to complete the game!”

As soon as Yu Jingqiu heard this, she immediately understood the principle of the game and couldn't help but be very interested.

Then he threw himself on Li Zetian and kissed him, "My dear, your idea is so great!"

"Haha, as long as you like it." Li Zetian hugged her plump body, smiled, and then said, "Actually, you are not too fat. The fleshy feeling is quite comfortable to the touch."

Yu Jingqiu said coquettishly: "If you say that, if someone really gets fat, you will definitely not like her."

Li Zetian held Yu Jingqiu in his arms and said softly and affectionately: "No matter how fat you become, no matter how old you become, or even if you frown, I will still love you and will never leave you..."

Yu Jingqiu instantly fell into Li Zetian's love words.

Next, naturally, a topsy-turvy battle began.

The next day, Li Zetian was full of energy and went to Flamingo Company to share his "creative idea".

After Nolan Bushnell and others listened, they all showed surprised expressions.

Li Zetian drank Kaifa and pretended to be very calm.

"Mr. Li, the idea of ​​the dance machine is really great. It is definitely very popular among young women!" Nolan Bushnell said.

"Not only young women, but also men love to dance, especially to perform in front of girls and show off their dancing skills. Once the dance machine is released, it will definitely become popular all over the world. In addition, based on the dance machine, we can also launch a home version of the dance mat and a video game console The version of Music Rhythm Master. The dance mat is similar to the dance machine, so I won’t go into details. The Music Rhythm Master is based on the falling note gameplay, that is, hitting the notes through the buttons of the arm.”

Li Zetian explained it very clearly and everyone understood it immediately.

"It's quite interesting that music games actually have this kind of gameplay..." Nolan Bushnell said thoughtfully.

Li Zetian smiled slightly, of course, both the dance machine and "Rhythm Master" are very popular!

After coming out of Flamingo Company, Li Zetian went to the Evolution Robot Artificial Intelligence Laboratory.

He thought of artificial intelligence from the dancing machine.

There are kawaii anime characters singing and dancing on the dancing machine.

Artificial intelligence involves many aspects, including voice.

Li Zetian's idea is to develop virtual characters similar to Hatsune Miku and Luo Tianyi. First, let them be active on the dance machine, and then add artificial intelligence to make the virtual characters more lively and interesting. Not only can they act cute and coquettish, but they can also complete some tasks. Simple dialogue to engage players. In the future, virtual characters will be active on the Internet and become computer stewards. All games and software developed by companies under Li Zetian's name can be called through virtual characters.

In the early days of the development of the Internet, many people were computer novices. If a cute girl guided them to surf the Internet, play games, and chat, they would definitely be willing to use it. Over time, they would get used to it.

Li Zetian not only mastered Microsoft's Windows operating system, but also mastered Apple's Mac-OS, which is equivalent to controlling the operating system of a personal computer. Therefore, he can completely control the operating system of "Hatsune Miku" or "Luo Tianyi". The avatar is written into the system and becomes part of it.

As she became part of the system, she could not only call software from companies under Li Zetian's name, but also software developed by other companies.

Perhaps, people will gradually accept the idea that virtual characters are operating systems.

People have no feelings when faced with a cold operating system, but they definitely have feelings when faced with a virtual character who has been with you for a long time and is always cute and coquettish with you. If you use an account and turn on cloud data, the virtual character can master the user's huge data, know what the user needs, and become empathetic.

At this moment, Li Zetian suddenly discovered that major changes seemed to be happening in the future.

The operating system is no longer the complex data in the C drive, but a virtual character active anywhere on the Internet.

Each operating system will correspond to a virtual character.
