The man who turned the times

Chapter 469 Great Market Turmoil

To be honest, when Lu Ziqiang and Su Yang made a bet last year, Candice even made a phone call to tease Lu Ziqiang, saying that he picked up [-] million for nothing, which was really lucky.

At that time, Noy was in full swing, and its quarterly shipments of mobile phones exceeded 7000 million. It was absolutely impossible for Yuanyang to match it within three years.

As for surpassing, let alone, in Candice's view, it was just a joke.

But now, this joke may not apply to Su Yang, but to them.

Lu Ziqiang said in a deep voice, "Are there any countermeasures for the headquarters?"

Candice shook his head and said: "I haven't found any good solution for the time being. The production and manufacturing of mobile phones has a high technical content. Judging from the data posted on the iPhone conference, Yuanyang Company is leading in all aspects of mobile phone technology. A lot of us, especially in 4G-LTE, our plan was completely incorporated by the seventh generation of Noy, but they were one step ahead of us."

Lu Ziqiang said: "Since it is a technical confrontation, I think Noy has established itself in the mobile phone industry for many years. It will not take long for Noy to carry out technical research and development and catch up with Yuanyang, right?"

Candice sighed: "Lu, you are thinking too simply. We have no foundation in the field of smart touch, and there is nothing in this field. The far-reaching iPhone is at least five years ahead of us in this field, at least five years, do you understand?"

Hearing this, Lu Ziqiang's face turned pale.

Of course he understands.

At least five years!

This means that Noy needs to spend five years or more to develop smartphones before it can catch up with the current Yuanyang.

How much money do you need to invest in research and development in five years?
A conservative estimate, it must be hundreds of billions, right?
And spending hundreds of billions is just to catch up with the current Yuanyang. Five years later, who knows that Yuanyang at that time will launch such a new technology?

If you lag behind others by one step, if you cannot overtake in a curve, you will definitely fall behind others step by step.

Lu Ziqiang gritted his teeth and said, "Mr. Candice, according to what you say, we can only let Yuanyang grow bigger and let the iPhone seize our market?"

Candice: "That would not be the case. The company is discussing this aspect and studying countermeasures."

"Besides, Yuanyang will inevitably cause public outrage within the scope of mobile phone production and its industrial chain because of its leading technology."

"At that time, as long as they unite with the major mobile phone giants to put pressure on Yuanyang, they may not be able to withstand the pressure."

Hearing this, Lu Ziqiang looked slightly relaxed: "That's good."

In fact, Lu Ziqiang doesn't care at all whether Noy's sales are good or not.

He has only one idea in his mind now, that is, in the next two years or so, Noy must stand up to the iPhone from Yuanyang, and the shipment of iPhone must not surpass Noy's mobile phone.

As long as the betting time is up and Yuanyang does not surpass Noy, he immediately chooses to resign after he gets [-] million.

Su Yang's [-] million, plus his savings over the years, is enough for him to be happy for the rest of his life.

However, things are not as simple and easy as Lu Ziqiang imagined.

The launch event of the iPhone was spread through major network media, TV media, newspapers and magazines, and soon caused a heated discussion around the world.

There are praises and criticisms in the content, but judging from the downward trend of the stock prices of listed companies such as Noy, Samsung, and Nokia, some investors have obviously lost confidence in push-button mobile phones.

Many investors who were still on the sidelines also began to sell their stocks after discovering that the stock market of push-button mobile phones continued to suffer.

According to the official statistics of the New York Stock Exchange in the United States, from January 2020, 1, 15:1 p.m., U.S. time, to January 21, [-], [-]:[-] p.m. U.S. time.

In just a few days, Noy's stock price fell by as much as 12.4%, and the loss value reached 800 billion US dollars.

The market value of Noy has also dropped by 7000 billion US dollars. Although the market value is still the first in the world, according to this downward trend, if it does not stop, it will soon fall to the 6000 billion mark.

At that time, the world's number one throne will be replaced by Gates' Microsoft.

Except for the decline in the stock price of Noy, the stock prices of almost all companies related to push-button mobile phones have begun to fall.

According to statistics, in just a few days, the stock price of the push-button mobile phone industry has evaporated more than 2000 billion US dollars.

Some economic experts have begun to analyze this.

They pointed out that this downward trend is very abnormal, although the iPhone of Yuanyang Group does have unique advantages in terms of performance.

But whether it is true, before Yuanyang's iPhone is fully released, all this remains to be studied.

Some experts who desperately want to be famous even said that this is likely to be a smoke bomb released by Yuanyang Group and the major mobile phone giants.

The purpose is to make investors lose confidence in the touch-tone phone, and then sell the stock.

However, the people of the major mobile phone giants are secretly buying low-priced stocks. When the stock price of touch-tone mobile phones rises, they will make a lot of money.

Not to mention, because the mobile phone industry is now in a mess by Yuanyang, many investors really believe this.

On January 1, the downward trend of Noy's stock price was actually contained.

On January 1, it miraculously rebounded by 23 percentage points.

When Su Yang knew about this, it was already the afternoon of January 1th, China time.

In this regard, he did not express any opinion, just smiled lightly.

The stock market is a thing that is true and false.

Smart people, those who can see the current situation clearly, deserve to make money, while those who cannot see the current situation, also deserve to lose their pants.

Of course, everyone is an investor, but Su Yang's level is relatively high, and he is also a kind of person.

Their loss is because they are not smart, and it has nothing to do with Su Yang.

Today is New Year's Eve.

Su Yang also finished dealing with Yanjing's affairs a long time ago. A few days ago, he took his sister and Xiaoqi back to Jianghai City.

in the living room.

Su Yang, Su Weiwei and Su Ma were all there, but Su Zhenhong ran downstairs to find someone to play chess, so he was leisurely.

The family gathered around the living room, watching the news on TV while making dumplings.

Because of her mother's presence, Su Weiwei didn't dare to get too close to Su Yang.

But, out of sight of my mother, she stretched out her white and silky feet and rubbed them against Su Yang's trouser legs.

Su Yang, who was making dumplings, glanced at her sister's feet, then stared at her again.

It means to say, don't go too far, or I will let my mother know, and the two of us will be fucked.

Su Weiwei bent her eyes and shot a gleam of light, meaning that it won't work, I just rubbed against it, being very careful, my mother couldn't see it.

Su's mother did not see it, but she stared at Su Weiwei for no reason, she was so frightened that she hurriedly retracted her feet, and almost got wet in panic.

Su's mother said indifferently: "A Yang, your sister is in Yanjing this year, so she didn't cause you any trouble."

Su Yang laughed and said, "Mom, you're right, but you think too highly of her. She's usually too lazy to stay at home. Even if she wants to make trouble for me, she has no chance."

"is it?"

"Yes, if you don't believe me, you can ask Xiao Qi."
