Southwestern Bell (), apart from Americans, knows that this company mentioned its parent company, ATT, but it is famous. Its Chinese name is American Telephone and Telegraph Company.
In 1877, nearly 100 years after the inventor of the telephone was established, in 1984, the United States Department of Justice split the ATT into eight parts, specializing in the long-distance telephone business ATT and seven small bells, including Southwest Bell.
After two decades of integration, when Huang Xuan knew about Southwest Bell, the little Bells had only 3 remaining to remain intact, and its parent company, ATT, also performed poorly. This is where Huang Xuan's heart moved.
According to the information that Lorraine searched from the higher similarity planes-comparing information from more planes, its accuracy will be greatly improved (it can be called relative similarity)-another month or so, Southwest Bell will in turn acquire its original parent company: American Telephone and Telegraph Company.
And this will undoubtedly immediately increase the share price of Southwest Bell.
Of course, if it is just to circulate money, there are many ways to choose from, but if you want to continue to obtain profits, Southwest Bell can solve a problem that Huang Xuan can hardly surpass-patent rights.
Lorraine can naturally find technologies that do not yet have patent rights. However, it is difficult to make money with basic technology, and commercial technology always has the problem of promotion. How long does it take Ethernet to start making money? Huang Xuanke can't wait that long.
Technology that can avoid patent rights is always at these two extremes: First, the technology is very advanced. And will bring benefits to more people. Nor will it encounter patent rights issues, but, relatively speaking. Such a technology will of course consume more energy. Second: The technology is advanced and there are few previous studies. However, it is not the only or necessary choice, just like the plasma TV or the projector is to the LCD TV. This is not the mainstream. And there are few people to promote, so this kind of technology must either make less money, or you need to spend a lot of money to do it yourself.
Huang Xuan did not want to be so extreme.
He is very demanding on the rate of return, but it is not harsh and harsh, so instead of trying to bypass the patent. It is better to go deep into the patent right, under the guidance of this idea, Huang Xuan aimed his attention at the DVD drive.
The annual consumption of DVD equipment is about 60-100 billion US dollars. After this big cake, the next-generation DVD standard is monopolized by the Blu-ray Alliance and the HD Alliance. The former is based on Sony and the latter is initiated by Toshiba. People, so no matter which alliance Huang Xuan wants to join, it needs a little opportunity. At least for now, neither alliance has a Chinese company.
According to Lorraine's data, for up to two years, HD> will collapse because of major companies in Hollywood, and before this, the two sides were in parallel.
Blu-ray drives are expensive, but the technology is more advanced, and HD is generally in the market incubation period. Only when one of the drives is reduced from thousands to hundreds of dollars will it be popular in the consumer market. , But Huang Xuan is very confident to reach this goal in a short time.
The premise is that one of the alliances is willing to accept him.
Therefore, when thinking about this issue, Huang Xuan naturally thought of capital.
If it is a person with a technical background, such as Huang Qunsheng or Tang Yi, they may use technology shares or cooperative development to join one of the alliances, but Huang Xuan will not, he did not even start high school, or even make trouble It is clear why the blue light is 405nm and why the red light is 650nm. The capacity of three places is not affected by Huang Xuan's judgment.
As the elder grandson of Huang Jia, Huang Xuan has long been familiar with capital, and the only restriction on capital is the adequacy of capital.
Scribbling around on the table, Zhang Xinyi walked in with two cups of tea, gently sitting beside Huang Xuan, put the tea on the bedside table, and said with a smile: "My son is really grown up, is in Thinking about beauty, still thinking about money. "
Huang Xuan's face was stiff, and he didn't know how to answer. He lay down on the pillow next to the bed, and said, "Let's think about the money."
"Shares?" Zhang Xinyi smiled and smiled: "I would also like to ask you, how come you think of buying this company's stock?"
"Don't everyone want to buy premium stocks?" Huang Xuan said sloppyly.
"If you really make more money than your own company, why doesn't this company collect its own stocks? It means that there is always risk." Zhang Xinyi said as she picked up a cup of tea, blowing air: "New tea, taste the taste how about it."
"Oh." Huang Xuan lay halfway up, took a sip of tea, and said, "Do you particularly want to know what I want to do?"
Zhang Xinyi stunned, "Uh," a cry.
Huang Xuan sat against the bed all at once
, Proudly smiled and said: "I know you must be interested." While turning on the energy screen, just in case.
—
Everything is well prepared, Huang Xuan chewed the tea ceremony: "What do you think about the DVD market?"
"It's very rich." Listening to Huang Xuansha's pretentious words, Zhang Xinyi also got interested and sat sideways on the bed. Although he is his own son, not every son can make $ 3 billion in a year.
"Years worth tens of billions of dollars a year, you have no interest?" Huang Xuan shook his head.
"A thief is a thief." Zhang Xinyi first criticized Huang Xuan's posture before saying: "The league is already very stable, and now there are so many domestic DVD manufacturers, it is unwise to invest in it again."
Huang Xuan smiled mysteriously and said, "I mean a new generation of DVD technology, Blu-ray and HD." He broke his finger and said: "Whether it is Sony or Toshiba, the current technology is not mature, and more is needed. Manufacturers joining, if someone is willing to join them now, the resistance must be much smaller than after the technology matures. "
"But how do you join in?" Zhang Xinyi was very clear about these business matters. She smiled and said: "Two billion dollars in cash is not bad, but for such an alliance, it's true ..." she said reacting, Asked: "Southwest Bell has a patent?"
"Southwestern Bell does not." Huang Xuan shook his head. "But the American Telegraph and Telephone Company has it."
"ATT?" These world-renowned companies are the stars of the business world, Zhang Xinyi strangely said: "I have not heard that they have Blu-ray technology, and even if they do, it should be Lucent Technologies."
In 1996, the well-known Bell Labs broke away from ATT and established Lucent Technologies. As a laboratory with 25,000 patents, there were countless births here that determined the world. For Zhang Xinyi, who is not familiar with these, what technology is there It's not surprising.
Huang Xuan still shook his head and said, "I actually save the country by the curve." He said that he dipped water from the tea cup and scratched on the bedside table: "ATT has no DVD technology, but MPGE-Li (Note 1)" , And the Blu-ray Alliance, this technology must be needed, without MPGE-4, it is all gone. "He said with a hand paddling A, M, and then said:" The Blu-ray Alliance itself will not be accepted as Its members, but if it is proposed by ATT, plus some technology and funds, there is a possibility of negotiation. "
He connected the line of A to S, and then said: "May
Acquire the decision-making shares, it will also have some additional terms, such as about MPGE-Yes I disagree, continuous negotiations may take a long time. Then what do we I can't do it either. "
He finally took the A line outside the circle and said: "But I got an inside message that Southwestern Bell may acquire ATT, and the final offer is about 15 billion US dollars, so that ~ 3.5% of Southwest Bell's shares can still have 3%, which is enough The board of directors has made an impact. Since I acquired Southwest Bell first, they naturally cannot modify the MPGE-4 terms in advance, so that there will be no legal issues. "
As a company with a market value of more than 700 US dollars, holding more than 5% of the shares can be considered as a major shareholder, and it is often other companies and institutions that hold so many shares, so 3% of the shares are considered to have the right to speak.
Zhang Xinyi looked at Huang Xuan with a sigh, holding his head with both hands and shaking, and said happily: "OK, son, I originally discussed with your dad, if you really would do nothing , We will find two lawyers to manage your life funds. I did n’t expect that if you grow up a little, you will be sensible. "
Huang Xuan smiled innocently, these things are indeed what he wanted ~ EbookFREE.me ~ In addition to getting many future consultations.
After sighing, Zhang Xinyi drank her tea beautifully, letting her heart go and said: "But there is still a little question, why choose blue light instead of HD? Now it seems, friends."
Huang Xuan ca n’t always say that because he knew Toshiba would lose, he joined HD>. It ’s okay. He had to avoid the weight and answer lightly:
That ’s because HD is not -4, and the patent fees of these guys are very expensive. DVD costs 2 yuan in patent fees, and Toshiba wants to save money, so if I join the HD Alliance, Southwest Bell ’s shares will be useless. "
This is a complete reversal of cause and effect. Zhang Xinyi gave Huang Xuan a glance without breaking it. Instead, he cared: "Then your money has bought shares, so even if you enter the Blu-ray Alliance, there is no production capital."
"Who knows how long the negotiation will take, and by that time, I will raise enough money." Huang Xuan's voice was low, but he was thinking about what was left before.
Note 1: MPGE-4 can be understood as a video
a complex system, ATT does not have exclusive rights, but it is a very important part. (To be continued, if you want to know the future, please log in http: //
