Rebirth 1981: Kick your scumbag wife away and become rich instantly

Shanhe Electrical Appliances Group Co., Ltd.

Zhao Shanhe was sitting in the middle of the medium-sized conference room, with Zi Zheng and Zi Xi sitting on the left and right, looking at each other calmly and calmly. The two people who participated in a high-level meeting for the first time actually had no sense of restraint or strangeness.

I saw that Zi Zheng and Zi Xi, who had been painstakingly cultivated, showed unprecedented stability and confidence through the accumulation and precipitation of first-class foreign universities.

Zhao Shanhe felt particularly relieved.

Even though I am just a junior high school dropout with no ink in my stomach, and I rely solely on my memories of my previous life to seize the opportunity to build such a huge family business, my two children are top students who graduated from prestigious schools.

The children's calm and calm demeanor instantly stunned the entire audience.

"If there is a mobile phone in the future, it will not only be a feature phone that can only make calls and send text messages, but it can also take photos, videos, listen to music and watch movies. It will be like a handheld computer. Would you like it?"

When Zhao Shanhe said these words with great satisfaction and his eyes passed over the faces of all the senior executives attending the meeting, the whole place fell into silence.

"The boss is talking about a science fiction world. How is this possible?"

"I think only aliens can do it. It's simply unbelievable on our planet..."

"Although the computers on the desktop today are desktop computers, they are not completely popular yet. Isn't that just a smaller version of a laptop?"

"Come on, who can afford a laptop? It costs 3 to [-] yuan. How is it possible that it has all the functions of a computer and can also make calls?"

"..."

When Zhao Shanhe finished speaking and raised his hand to encourage everyone to express their opinions, he saw everyone shaking their heads and expressing their thoughts.

All in all, that's impossible.

Such a situation can only occur in dreams.

Zhao Shanhe just looked at everyone with a smile, without any thoughts of losing his temper. In 2005, this concept... was indeed too advanced.

After all, when Jobs released the first-generation iPhone in January 2007, the dominant mobile phone companies on the market were Motorola and Nokia.

At the 2010 smartphone conference, the skinny Jobs, still smiling, raised the iPhone 4 in his hand and said that this was the iPhone in the palm of his hand. Everyone at the scene was shocked.

At that time, in the first 88 countries and regions where it was launched, 4 million iPhone 170 units were sold in the first three days, and demand continued to exceed supply.

The image of many people setting up tents and queuing up all night long on the road outside an Apple retail store just to grab an iPhone 4 has become a unique mark of the people of that era.

In 2011, Jobs's successor, Cook, stood on the stage of the press conference to show off iPhone 4s for the first time, and the audience burst into applause.

At that time, the mobile phone industry had changed. Motorola, which had been a strong competitor four years ago, had been acquired, and Nokia sold its headquarters building in Finland a year later.

It was also in this year that domestic mobile phone brands got their start: Xiaomi and vivo released their first mobile phones, and Huawei gradually entered people's field of vision.

Of course, Zhao Shanhe cannot explain these memories of later generations in this era where even laptops have become luxury goods.

"Dad, I think everything is possible. If this product can be successfully developed and put on the market, it will definitely be an epoch-making revolution. If it can incorporate so many elements, it will definitely become popular."

Zi Zheng, who was sitting on the left, saw the idea proposed by his father, and all the company executives present shook their heads. However, he felt that this matter was not completely like the fantasy that everyone thought.

Even though the United States is currently the world's leading hegemon in terms of technological strength, the product my father mentioned has not yet appeared.

However, Zi Zheng, who has been an intern in Silicon Valley for a year, always remembers the corporate culture of many companies in Silicon Valley.

For example: we tolerate mistakes, allow dreams, encourage innovation, tolerate failure, and inspire entrepreneurial spirit.

Although each company's business philosophy is different, the core is to break the rules.

"Dad, actually you said that although this product is not currently on the market, can I understand it in this way, that is, it is the integration of current mobile phones and laptops, and this is the product you are talking about?"

Zi Xi also thought about it for a long time. In the year after graduation, Zi Xi chose to intern on Wall Street and was very interested in the capital market.

After hearing her brother's understanding, Zi Xi felt that the product her father was talking about was actually just a laptop with added communication functions.

Of course, I didn't say this, and Zi Xi didn't think it was that easy.

Hearing his children's words, Zhao Shanhe felt extremely happy. He was originally a person who dared to take risks, and he was not as courageous as believing in Tsinghua University and Peking University.

It is indeed different after seeing his children graduate from college. However, there is no precedent for Zhao Shanhe to even develop a smartphone. Now that he has this idea and wants to turn it into reality, he must go through ups and downs.

The fact is just as Zi Xi thought. Although the later generations of smartphones have the ultimate industrial aesthetic appearance, smooth operating interface and system, and unified and complete ecology, although they are so "natural" in the eyes of later generations, the road to its birth has been full of hardships. There are ups and downs, not everything is smooth sailing.

When Jobs first came up with this idea, he first thought that if he wanted to add a communication system to his laptop, he would have to find a professional company to cooperate with him, so he thought of Motorola, the dominant player in the communications industry.

Unexpectedly, after a long period of running-in, the final product developed turned out to be completely different, and was subjected to various cynicism in the industry. This made the arrogant Jobs angry.

So I decided to give up the cooperation with Motorola and simply use my own team to develop it. The result was a success that lived up to expectations.

As the first generation of Apple mobile phones progressed to more than a dozen generations later, from the death of Steve Jobs to the time Cook took over, Apple became the greatest company, with a market capitalization of US$30000 trillion at its peak.

Think about his own Shanhe Electric Group or Shanhe Automobile Group. Even if all the industries are added together, even Zhao Shanhe, who has long had a prophetic idea, will not be able to achieve it in his lifetime.

It seems...choice is more important than hard work.

Instead of doing this, Zhao Shanhe decided to develop a new track, so he announced directly at the meeting that he had decided to establish a technology company with Zhao Zi Zhenghe and Zhao Zi Xi as shareholders, dedicated to the research and development of smartphones.

This company plans to register in the Cayman Islands, design and develop a research and development center in the United States, and go all out to develop mobile phones with Internet access.

After hearing Zhao Shanhe's words, both Zi Zheng and Zi Xi, as well as the company's senior management team, were instantly stunned. How is this possible?

Is the boss crazy?

However, they have long been accustomed to Zhao Shanhe's strong work style, and everyone can accept it. However, Zi Zheng and Zi Xi were completely confused.

I just graduated from college, can I do it?
