Chapter 255

ps: The timing is wrong, orz.

After staying in the United States for nearly 3 weeks, Lu Fei finally won a peaceful environment for logic to earn a small amount of money after busying himself.

Finalized the authorization of Sony Music Europe and America with Andy Lak, and the first batch of 10 songs will be put on the shelves, mixing new songs and old songs.

As a result, the world's five major record giants have entered Spotify, and the total number of songs in the library exceeds 160 million, which is 8 times that of iTunes.

With the support of SNS community interaction, no matter singers or users, the number of registered users has also increased sharply, and new servers have been continuously added.

Spotify has been reported in multiple newspapers and three major TV stations in turn, dubbed "the savior of the record industry", "the subversive of traditional records", and the "terminator of pirated music", from the entertainment circle to the financial circle.

The winter is over, and the biggest lesson of the Nasdaq stock market crash is that Wall Street will never learn its lesson. Sequoia, Morgan Stanley, etc. are interested in Spotify, which is backed by Microsoft's capital injection. Spring is back.

The mobile phone was bombarded by many investment banks for several days, Lu Fei was very annoyed, and Ballmer couldn't bear his impatience and called.

"Lu, Goldman Sachs is willing to invest in Microsoft. We can offer 5000 million US dollars, 11%. No, we only need 10%."

"Calm down, Steve, calm down, Spotify just moved to version 3.1 and I don't expect refinancing until version 4.0."

While talking, Guo Xing pushed the door open, walked to the table with low steps, and waited patiently until the conversation was over.

"Is the ticket booked?" Lu Fei deliberately put the handset of the landline aside to keep the phone busy.

"It has been handed over to Wang Ben." Guo Xing asked curiously, "Boss Lu, Spotify is really worth 5 million US dollars?"

"Heh, far more than 10 billion!"

Lu Fei let out a sigh of relief, and finally he could go back to the country to hide in peace.

In the previous life, itunes was Apple’s big cash cow, with a net profit of several hundred million dollars, which supported Apple’s drastic integration of software and hardware, the heavy launch of the iphone, and a closed-loop ecological system.

But he has already figured out the way for Spotify. Before leaving, he made the following deployment:

"Old Guo, remember it!"

Guo Xing immediately picked up a pen and paper, pricked up his ears, and heard that he was going to use the power of the record industry alliance to cooperate with Billboard to make the ranking list obediently implanted in Spotify, and to have a few more authorities besides the best-selling list and recommendation list list.

Lu Fei has always said that the idea even extends to e-books.

Guo Xing was stunned, "Mr. Lu, Spotify still sells books?"

"A readable e-book with audio, to be precise."

Lu Fei suddenly changed the topic and turned to Newark's acquisition.

"You're done! White deserves to be one of us. 2600 million US dollars, including patents and people, including desks, chairs and computers, all belong to logic."

Although Guo Xing thinks that single-touch is more than enough for MP3, multi-touch is just superfluous, but he believes in Master Lu!

"Wayne and Elias, what's their attitude?"

Lu Fei always asked questions that had nothing to do with selling books. Guo Xing was confused for a while, but answered truthfully:
"Very satisfied! When signing the contract, I told Wayne that they could stay in Delaware and build an innovation center named after them. I was very excited and signed all the contracts including the non-compete agreement without hesitation."

"This is 'Building a Nest for the Phoenix'!"

Lu Fei picked up "Time" magazine and mentioned the new product line, the logical version of Kindle, "Touch technology can be used not only in MP3, but also in e-readers, no keyboard, no mouse, just slide and touch with your fingers. hit……"

"Wait a minute, Mr. Lu, do we still need to make touch screens in the future?"

Guo Xing's eyes widened. Even if it was Master Lu who said this, he subconsciously felt that it was a fool's dream. Did he forget to take his medicine when he went out?
Lu Fei nodded, "Multi-touch is just software, software and hardware must be integrated, logic must have its own screen."

Guo Xing suddenly realized, "No wonder Mr. Lu must obtain the patent authorization of the resistive screen manufacturer that cooperates with Nokia."

"Resistive screens are just a stepping stone."

The corner of Lu Fei's mouth twitched slightly, vaguely remembering that Apple's capacitive screen technology was developed in cooperation with Wanwan, but the specific company could not remember.

He can only ask Zu Wencui to help, cast a wide net, catch more fish, and make touch technology the first core patent of logic.

"Old Guo, I want to make a rule. The logic must be to increase investment in research and development, and spend more than 10% of the annual income on research and development!"

…………

Discussed the prospect of Kindle with Guo Xing in depth, and didn't stop until Wang Ben reminded us to go to the airport.

At this moment, through the window of the plane, the blue-white clouds and orange light in the distance superimposed and intersected, as if overwhelming.

Lu Fei sat in the business class seat, scribbled on the paper with a pen, and his thoughts could not go around the wireless network and Amazon. After all, Amazon is the largest online bookstore in the United States.

A stewardess of the Big Yangma broke into the line of sight, smiling: "Sir, what would you like to drink?"

"Coke, thank you."

Lu Fei was bored while waiting, so he took out a stack of newspapers from the newspaper bag, all densely packed in English, focusing on finance and technology.

"warn! lmusic sweeps Europe and the United States, Chinese manufacturing rushes to land", "Spotify: save or destroy the record industry? ", "Huaxia Lu, Help China Win the 21st Century", "<Times> Listed 25 Asian Heroes, Among the Science and Technology Heroes Only Huaxia Lu"...

Words such as "Huaxialu", "lmusic", "Spotify", and "logic" appeared frequently, and suddenly, I turned to a report, and the eye-catching headline read——

"Hanxin No. [-], the real enemy of American semiconductors".

"...internationally advanced 0.18 micron semiconductor process design, with 250 million devices on an integrated block that is only half the size of a fingernail, with a 32-bit computing core, capable of performing 2 million operations per second...

Under the leadership of Chen Jin, known as the "Father of Huaxia Chips", China's semiconductor industry seems to be heading for a correct path. "

After reading this sentence, Lu Fei squinted his eyes, picked up a pen to cross out the word "correct" and changed it to "wrong", but felt that it was not appropriate, so he considered the vocabulary.

Next to my ears, the voice of the stewardess of Dayangma suddenly came:

"Sir, your Coke."

"Thank you."

When Lu Fei saw the reddish-brown Coke, he had a flash of inspiration, swiped the pen, and then took two sips into his mouth, letting the cold sweetness dilute the hotness of the brain.

Wang Ben saw that he put on the blindfold and fell asleep, as if he was suffocating, and couldn't help being surprised. While tidying up the newspaper, he poked around curiously, and saw two big words written on the entire page——

"hell"!
The implication behind it is that from day to night, during the flight of more than ten hours, there are countless opportunities to ask Lu Fei, but he, who abides by his duty as a bodyguard, did not say a word.

Just ask what you should ask, and don't ask nothing.

Just like this flight, the destination is not in Yanjing, but in Qindao in East Ludong, so I have to ask.

Lu Fei answered without hesitation: "Oh, the crew of "Parents' Love" is filming an exterior scene here, I'm here to visit."

"Understood!"

Wang Ben immediately understood, and waved for a car.

The two came to a hotel, and the precautionary measures were quite in place. Because the whistle was blown in time and the national mobilization was launched in advance, SARS was able to be controlled in early April, with occasional ups and downs.

When Lu Fei came to the room, the smell of disinfectant water filled his nostrils. He sent a text message on his mobile phone and turned into the bathroom.

Not long after taking a shower, there was a knock on the door.

I saw a graceful female ghost floating in the corridor, standing tall and graceful, with a flowery smile and crescent-like eyebrows.

逮!
Bold evildoer, Dawei Tianlong!
Qianying laughed like a silver bell, and was pulled into the room by Lu Fei, and staged a ghostly scene.

Late at night in Qindao, the evening wind howls, the waves are rough, the front waves lead to the back waves, the back waves push the front waves, the waves hit the clouds, the clouds swallow the waves, and twist into a ball.

The sea under the moonlight, covered by waves and strong winds, seems to be covered with broken silver.

"Boom boom, boom boom~"

"Senior Sister!"

"Sister Mimi!"

Liu Shishi and Yang Mi were in the same room, sleeping soundly, when they were completely awakened by a sudden knock on the door.

"Who is it!"

Holding the anger of getting up, Yang Mi got off the bed angrily, opened the door and saw that it was Jing Tian and Guan Xiaotong, they hugged into a ball, shivering, the anger they stirred up disappeared in an instant.

Liu Shishi stepped on his slippers, and then came, "Hey, Xiao Tiantian, Xiaotong, what's the matter, you guys?"

"Senior sister, I'm afraid!" Jing Tian hugged her waist.

Yang Mi curled her lips, "Afraid? What are you afraid of? Could it be haunted?"

Guan Xiaotong's face turned pale, and he said tremblingly, "Ah, yes, yes, yes! It's haunted, a ghost is hitting the wall!"

Yang Mi rolled her eyes, yawned and said, "What the hell hits the wall, there are no ghosts in this world, children are not allowed to lie."

"Really, really, no, if you don't believe me, you come with us."

Jing Tian stomped his feet, grabbed Liu Shishi's hand and walked into his room. Seeing this, Yang Mi could only reluctantly follow.

"Shh!"

The four came to the room and stood silently at the head of the bed.

With one ear attached to a wall, I heard the wall making irregular noises. The atmosphere was very strange, and the temperature seemed to drop to freezing point.

Jing Tian's legs trembled, and he said in a trembling voice: "Sister Mimi, Senior Sister, listen, listen, is it a ghost hitting the wall!"

"Bah, what the hell!"

Yang Mi clamped her legs, her face flushed slightly, and she spat, "It's just a pervert."

"goat!"

Jing Tian covered his mouth in fright, "Isn't a pervert a ghost?"

Liu Shishi's cheeks were flushed, from cheek to earlobe.

This ghost is so scary!
