Chapter 391 The Role of Money

The direction of public opinion in overseas markets has finally developed according to Bolang's needs.

When Tim expressed his approval of the product strength of XingHai1 in a clear and euphemistic voice, when Tim was continuously questioned by the host about the sales of XingHai1, Tim replied with a public relations caliber...

Things started to get more and more interesting.

No wind can abruptly set off waves of public opinion.

Not to mention that now that we have such substantive materials, from the perspective of communication and the "artistic" interpretation of language, we can play [-] tricks.

On the one hand, it adopts a marketing account model with a large amount of control, which is common on the Internet... Shocked XXX, XXX angry, banned BoLangXXX, Mrs. Tim admitted XXX...

However, it was changed from Chinese to English. In the case of professional English players, the emotions to be expressed are still clear and clear.

On the other hand, the marketing promotion also adopts the Lizhongke model.

Let some influential followers on Twitter, range, xiaochengshu and other platforms publish some seemingly rational analysis.

For example, expressing Tim's recognition of the excellence of XingHai1 is also recognition of the excellence of iPhone5, and denying his opponent is belittling himself. This kind of behavior is a manifestation of confidence, after all, XingHai1's product strength lies there.

For example, expressing that Tim agrees with the newly defined entertainment center concept is also an expression of self-confidence and so on.

In these seemingly rational analyses, the mixed underlying concepts still make the audience think that Tim/Apple has fully recognized the excellence of Bolang.

The mass marketing model and precise and rational dissemination, combined with Bolang's two overseas social platforms and its precise information delivery algorithm, have covered the groups that most need to be covered.

The effect of the combination of the two far exceeds that of 1+1. The covered audience, regardless of their academic level, is almost instilled with the same point of view.

Public opinion is like this, given a preconceived concept, and then scoured by massive amounts of information, even a high IQ will become a fool.

But there is a major premise for this, there must be a platform for unlimited dissemination.

For example, the main examples are Twitter, range, and xiaochengshu. Because Twitter has no one to rely on, and the volume is not that big, and there are realGM and realDT daily sparring, many active users have been... purified.

In this form...

The sales of XingHai1 increased again.

And America erupted in a relatively rare march.

Countless people are accusing the upper class of abandoning freedom, restricting everyone's right to choose, etc. There are beautiful scenery everywhere, and there are no repeats everywhere.

In some places, 0 yuan purchases broke out.

At the same time, the decision-making at the top of Facebook suddenly began to hesitate, including Mark Zucker, who was thinking about a problem.

If the entertainment center is closer to the mobile Internet in the era of smartphones, where is the entrance?

Bolang's uncharacteristically strong strength, and XingHai1 being sold out again and again in various markets, as if the purchase demand that can never be satisfied, does it mean another growth possibility for Facebook?
No matter how much Mark Zac hates Dongfang and Bolang, he has to think about the interests that are closely related to himself.

A simple analysis.

Facebook can be replaced, but it is difficult for Apple. Is it also difficult for Bolang Terminal, which has formed a competitive posture with Apple's iPhone series in terms of product strength, to be replaced?

Will Stars Apps become an application ecological platform on the same level as GMS and App Store?

…………

…………

When Li Ze led the plan to go abroad in full swing, the time came to mid-March.

On March 3, the second day of the second lunar month, the dragon raises its head.

A day that everyone gradually chooses to have their hair cut on this day, an ordinary Wednesday.

Entering junior year, Wen Liang's homework decreased sharply.

There is only one class this Wednesday.

However, he didn't even go to this class, and he was still on campus.

There is no way, under the strong recommendation of the principal Wang Yingjun, Wen Liang, who has been elected as the honorary chairman of the Huagong Education Development Foundation in one step, is arranged to preside over the foundation's annual council meeting today.

Such meetings are naturally rare.

After all, many of the directors, directors, etc. are honorary alumni of Huagong located all over the country.

Only 2 times a year.

It's just that... this time, the directors, honorary directors, honorary chairman, etc. came in a particularly complete set.

How should I put it, don't look at the monk's face to see the Buddha's face~
Wen's richest man is a bit reserved.

No matter how ordinary or not, as long as he is a bigwig in the business world, he should be given some favors. Who knows what Bo Lang will do next.

Now Bolang's industrial chain is huge~
The key is that no one in the country is worth more than Wen Liang on the bright side, and even the dark side is gradually disappearing.

"Hey, Mr. Zhang."

"Hi Dong Li."

"This way please, this way please."

Wen Liang is still very hard-working, warmly greets every director who comes from afar, and occasionally greets people, it can't be said that he treats people with full marks, it can only be said that the welcoming attitude of others here is enough up.

Needless to say, there are a small number of business directors among them, who usually have no way to see Wen Liang.

Even Mr. Mize has to line up~
After all, Bolang's internal business is actually very large now.

Unlike now, Wen Liang still welcomes everyone in a friendly voice.

At ten o'clock, the meeting officially started. Wen Liang, who presided over the meeting, spoke first: "First of all, on behalf of the Huagong Education Development Foundation, I would like to thank everyone for taking time out of their busy schedules to come here. Everyone has worked hard."

"This is the first council meeting in 2013..."

"The main meeting procedures are..."

"..."

Not too complicated a transaction.

It is just that relevant personnel report the social donations received by the Foundation in 2012.

Briefly report on the management and operation of the foundation.

These include subsidizing the construction of Chinese engineering disciplines, updating teaching and scientific research equipment;

Funding for the introduction of Chinese laborers and academic exchanges;
Establishment of scholarship and teaching aid funds for the poor;

Funding other activities related to the education of Chinese laborers;

Other social welfare activities funded.

These reports are equivalent to telling everyone where the foundation has spent your donated funds.

Huagong’s Education Development Foundation is a non-public fundraising fund, which can only accept voluntary donations, and there are clear regulations and restrictions on the scope of use of foundation funds, which is very different from private equity funds on the market.

This is also why Bolang’s terminal invitational investment looked for Huagong Asset Management before.

In addition to these standard procedures.

Naturally, there are also some reasonable...'begging' processes.

It's not a public offering, that's right.

Unsurprisingly, Wen Liang took the lead in donating [-] million points.

Not much, Bolang Group intends to donate 1.2 million, mainly for the establishment of scholarships.

The main thing is not to put too much pressure on everyone.

In the name of Bolang Group, this little donation is really sprinkling. It's too small to even bother to record a sum to deduct taxes.

For example: in the past January and February, the domestic value-added tax paid by Bolang Terminal to Yangcheng alone was as high as 1 billion.

There is no way, there are quite a lot of Xinghai 1 sold in China.

I don't know anything else, anyway, Yangcheng's attitude towards the Bolang terminal is that it's afraid that it will melt in your mouth, and it will break if you hold it in your hand.

Most business owners are willing to donate some funds.

Start with a million.

It is probably the highest number of donations and the highest amount of donations received by the Huagong Education Development Foundation since its establishment in 07.

At this point, both the formal council meeting and the informal meeting are over.

Of course, Wen Liang didn't leave in a hurry, that would be a bit too ruthless, but started chatting with everyone nearby.

"Mr. Wen's overseas business is booming recently."

"TOEFL, it's okay, but it's still difficult."

"I heard that Bolang is investing in some semiconductor industries. I don't know which aspect it is?"

"Upstream."

"Huh? Not the manufacturing of semiconductors?"

"That's only experimental, and it's mainly focused on upstream equipment and materials."

"Which part?"

"All."

"..."

Even Li Dongsheng, the boss of TCL next to him, couldn't help inhaling lightly. The whole range is too fierce, and they can't catch up with this kind of courage and depth of resources.

Some directors also mentioned that Bolang opened 10 factories across the country.

These factories are mainly downstream consumer electronics assembly.

It is a labor-intensive industry.

The technology content is not high.

But... this industrial chain is very long, not only electronic components, but also manufacturing equipment, including factory basic environmental equipment and so on.

Of course someone has an idea.

This Wenliang didn't resist either.

Anyway, Bolang has its own processes and standards, and it can do business with anyone, as long as it doesn't rely on its old senior status to shoddy it.

To be honest, Wen Liang actually knows about such... small things.

He didn't ask questions 800 years earlier.

Everything was handed over to Li Xia who was at the side, and she would make the specific arrangements.

Not to be perfunctory.

Those who can do it will definitely be given priority in the cooperation list.

Of course, these people are not stupid. With Wen Liang's gesture, they also saw the huge gap between the two sides in an instant.

For specific matters, it is definitely useless to find Wen Liang.

He couldn't possibly have the energy to handle it.

Even... his assistant will not handle it himself, but just record it and hand it over to others.

Wen Liang came forward to preside over this meeting, one for the sake of Hua Gong, and the other for the development of Hua Gong.

Both of these are for Huagong to continue to play an exemplary role and a leading role of key universities in many aspects such as industry-university-research and talent training systems.

After all, last summer, Wen Liang's cannonball speech at the graduation ceremony still lingered in my ears.

And this summer Ze Zong will continue to shoot.

In addition to these, the last small reason is for Li Dongsheng of TCL.

…………

Seeing that everyone's 'curiosity' about him was almost over, Wen Liang made an inviting gesture and said politely: "Mr. Li, can you take a step to speak."

"Please." Li Dongsheng nodded happily.

Wen Liang basically didn't exchange pleasantries, and cut straight to the point: "Mr. Li, I don't know if your company's Huaxing Optoelectronics will accept strategic investment."

"Your company wants to invest in China Star Optoelectronics?" Li Dongsheng asked in a slightly puzzled manner.

Wen Liang nodded slightly, and changed his tone: "Old senior, we have been working on making the mobile phone industry chain of Bolang terminal controllable, independent, and domestically produced. The screen is an inescapable link."

Li Dongsheng raised his eyebrows: "I'm afraid it's not simple autonomy?"

"The old senior misunderstood, at most it is strategic investment + technical support." Wen Liang said frankly.

Li Dongsheng was stunned again: "Technical support?"

Wen Liang said bluntly: "Our research investment in the upstream equipment and materials of the semiconductor industry is relatively high. At present, we have invested a total of about 650 billion in cash, because there are many categories involved, and we have accidentally studied OLED (organic light-emitting semiconductor)." Luminescent materials, there is some progress."

"Bolang Terminal has no intention of monopolizing anything, but it needs to have a strong control over the supply chain in the early stage of development, which can only be done through investment, mergers and acquisitions, holdings and other methods. There is no way for the outside world to criticize it."

"I believe that the cooperation between Bolang Terminal and China Star Optoelectronics will be very pleasant."

Li Dongsheng fully understood, and he was amazed: "Mr. Wen's courage and pursuit are really... amazing."

"Pleasant to work with."

Li Dongsheng happily agreed to this cooperation.

Huaxing Optoelectronics is now a company with a registered capital of one billion yuan, and its scale is not too large. It will indeed be a pleasure to take the bus of Bolang Terminal.

At the end, Li Dongsheng mentioned: "I heard that there are still a few components in the supply chain of Bolang Terminal that need to be purchased overseas. I will take the lead in introducing some friends to your company Mr. Ze another day. There is one more choice."

"Then thank you old senior first." Wen Liang thanked with a smile.

Li Dongsheng's network of contacts in the business world must be more extensive than Wen Liang's. After all, TCL has been established for more than 30 years.

The Bolang terminal does have a camera, memory stick, storage, battery and other components that are still under discussion and finalization.

It would indeed be more convenient to have Li Dongsheng in the middle to make a match.

After all, sometimes the process is a very troublesome business.

…………

The two negotiated verbally, and the follow-up matters will naturally be coordinated by the relevant teams of the two companies.

According to the current progress and Bolang's consistent style, around the beginning of next year, the Xinghai series of Bolang terminals should be able to use their own screens.

This thing is mainly limited by two aspects of materials and chips.

In terms of materials, Bolang has unintentionally made some ideal progress, which is really a surprise. After all, semiconductor upstream materials also involve massive optical research.

Sometimes inexplicably crossed.

After all, there is actually more than 700 billion funds before and after. If this amount of funds is used for the lunar exploration project, it can go back and forth to the moon 50 times.

Money really matters sometimes.

This is also because of doing upstream research.

If it is a downstream product, such as a smartphone, this thing is really... Boss Lei invested 4000 million in R&D funds on the first product of Redmi, which is already a big loss.

It took only three or two months from the finalization to the prototype, and after running-in and running-in, I always felt that my hips were too stretched, so I had to start over.

In the end, we talked about cooperation with Bolang Terminal again, and came to hang up an insurance policy.

In comparison, the pre-preparation of Bolang launching Xinghai 1 is really an exaggeration. If it falls on some mobile phone brands that are still playing machine-sea tactics, it is simply an intolerable time cost and early-stage sunk cost.

……

Wen Liang talked about the matter with China Star Optoelectronics in a hurry.

Li Ze was very grateful.

It made him rush to the school since he had hardly appeared on the Huagong campus since the end of his junior year last semester.

Wen Liang sized Li Ze up and down, and said slowly, "You don't need to be so excited, it's just a matter of little effort."

"What." Li Ze was a little dazed at first, and then he realized, "What about the cooperation with China Star Optoelectronics?"

As he spoke, a smile grew on his face, and he laughed loudly: "Hahaha! I'm dying of laughter, I came to school because of Scode."

Therefore, Wen Liang glanced at Li Ze.
