Age of Dreams

"What on earth is Xiao Qi going to do!" ? 》

This is a special issue published on February 29 by the Guardian, one of the most famous newspapers in the UK.

"We deliberately chose one day in these four years to remind everyone to pay attention. This is not only a special day when there is only one day in 1461. What we want to talk about is also a very special person. He is like a comet. Similarly, in 2005, I started my first involvement in the electronics industry. I started with a simple feature phone named "Shan Zhaiji" by the Chinese. Until now, two and a half years later, a boy who once had nothing has become a must-see on this planet. Where most people need to look up.

We once bought Xiao Qi’s first "fairy phone" from Hua Guo. This is a phone with ordinary appearance and ordinary functions. Perhaps not many people were willing to use it a few years ago. However, in China, a country with 800 million rural people who are still poor, it has achieved unexpected success. From the sale of mobile phones to the sale of the rights to the'fairy mobile phone', Xiao Qi received a total of 2.5 billion US dollars in income. , At this time he just turned 18 years old.

From this example, we can draw a conclusion that as long as you create what people need, then you can be successful. No matter how small the value of this thing is, it can create enough benefits for you! In fact, Xiao Qi did the same later, so he finally succeeded.

The latter example is already very familiar to everyone. The DreamPad that pioneered the era of human intelligent electronics, and the one that actively expanded the development of intelligent electronics, even in the eyes of the most demanding people, can be regarded as the great in human history. Inventions of inventions, let us know that Chinese people are not only smart 2,000 years ago, they also have smart geniuses now.

Some people say that Xiao Qi is nothing but intelligent electronics was invented by IBM. The tablet computer was invented by Microsoft. Xiao Qi only achieved such an achievement based on the accumulation of predecessors and a comprehensive extraction. He is even suspected of grabbing the limelight of Joe's gang leader, because only a few months later, a more sensational smart phone came on the market, its popularity and popularity. Far larger than DreamPad.

But that cannot be said.

The Chinese invented gunpowder, but they used gunpowder for entertainment, while people in the Western world made weapons with gunpowder, which changed the world ever since. We have not denied the greatness of the Chinese people who invented gunpowder, but we need to thank the people who make the best use of gunpowder.

Of course, my example is not too accurate. Xiao Qi's contribution to smart electronics is far beyond your imagination. If it were not for him to open this door for us, who would have thought that a tablet computer made dead by Microsoft could still appear in front of us so stunningly? Who would think that tablets can be smart?

There is also a software development kit for all engineers. Its emergence is not only to establish a cross-country and cross-ethnic store, but also because it can use the easiest way to let everyone’s whims and ideas can be obtained. freed. It can be made so that people all over the world can judge whether it is useful and whether it is fun.

Inventions full of wisdom are always intoxicating. Xiao Qi only relied on these two creations to make him enter the ranks of great inventors, but the surprise that Xiao Qi brought us was far more than that. People once said that a tablet is DreamPad and a smart phone is. No one can change this inherent impression. But DreamStars launched at the end of last year. Various innovations, including the amazing fingerprint unlocking function, made the author who already had it, could not help but contribute a little operating income to Xiao Qi.

From this we can know that any classic can be innovated, and Xiao Qi has changed the inherent concept of smart phones today. Can we expect that in the near future, who can change the concept of this smart tablet? For this, I always look forward to it with optimism. "

"Today we are publishing a special issue. It is not a tribute to Xiao Qi's success, but in addition to the things everyone knows above, we also hope that everyone can see another side of Xiao Qi, which is completely different from the genius of invention. Another personality.

Now many people in the economic world know that in addition to the name of "Father of Intelligent Electronics", Xiao Qi also has a name called "King of Gaming." And Xiao Qi's first bet on oil was in April 2006, against two investment banks, Merrill Lynch and Goldman Sachs.

But perhaps many people don’t know that Xiao Qi’s first bet was not his intention at all. He just wanted to buy the company’s wireless chip department from Merrill Lynch, and wanted to obtain Texas Instruments’ wireless communication chip patent from Goldman Sachs. Right to use. However, several managers in charge of the business at the time looked down on Xiao Qi very much, and therefore arrogantly refused his purchase request.

Everyone knew what happened later. Through the gambling, Xiao Qi not only won the patent and company he wanted beautifully, and made a fortune, but also allowed those executives who had looked down on him to receive more. Three months salary left. And a year later, Xiao Qi used a sensational way to make the United States, and then gambled 5 billion US dollars in oil with the five major investment banks and commercial banks, and then he let the hundreds of experts in these investment banks completely become others. The fool in the eyes is stupid home! Stupid home!

So far, no one dared to bet against Xiao Qi on oil anymore. Even if Xiao Qi publicly said at the beginning of this year that he thought the price of oil could rise to an incredible price of $150, no one dared to bet against him. . But from now on, it seems that Xiao Qi is right again this time. The price of oil continues to rise. Lehman Brothers even predicts that the price will reach as much as US$180 per barrel this year.

You think we are going to say that God has bestowed Xiao Qi with an extremely clever mind, so Xiao Qi is a person who relies on talent to eat?

If that happens, you are all wrong. What we want to say is that Xiao Qi did not squander his talents wantonly, but the great efforts that Xiao Qi planned behind him. For his fairy empire, what Xiao Qi paid and planned privately was far away. Beyond your imagination!

We said earlier that before Xiao Qi created DreamPad, he knew what he wanted-patents!

Chinese companies lack patents, and they do not respect patents. They are usually ethical and ignore the hard work of the inventors. Therefore, this is also a place where Chinese people are hated internationally!

But Xiao Qi is different. We can see that since he just made feature phones, he has completely respected the principles of the Western world, strictly paid for patents, and at the same time is tireless in the pursuit of patents. His first bet was purely to obtain the various patents he wanted. Although he was blocked at Merrill Lynch and Goldman Sachs, he managed to bring its CDMA division into his hands at Nortel Networks, which was in crisis.

Xiao Qi is of course not smooth sailing. Apart from being looked down upon by Merrill Lynch and Goldman Sachs, everyone still remembers Apple's report on the patent infringement of Fairy Company, right?

According to the news that we paid a big price, Xiao Qi rushed to the United States as soon as possible, and the reason why he quickly reached an understanding agreement with Qiao’s gang was that Xiao Qi held many patents of intelligent electronics, which overlapped with Apple, and Apple The company once again pessimistically placed the patent application behind Xiao Qi.

And because if DreamPad can't be listed, then it won't be available, so the Qiao gang finally had no choice but to succumb. After the two parties exchanged the patent authorization, each of them had to pay Xiao Qi a patent fee of 8 US dollars, that is to say. , Every time you buy one, you have to give Xiao Qi 8 dollars.

Apple can be regarded as giving less, Xiao Qi used his own "monopoly" in the smart electronics industry, and successively reached a patent exchange agreement with Samsung, Sony Ericsson, Nokia and Motorola, as long as it is for the production of smart phones and smart tablets. They paid Xiao Qi for the computer!

People often say ~www.readwn.com~ why Xiao Qiming could do it alone, but he brought Apple and Samsung to share the money to others? In fact, this is what Xiao Qi is smart about. All those who questioned him, after the shocking sales, knew how important Apple products are! Although Samsung failed for the first time, with their powerful hardware industry chain, I don’t doubt how Samsung will fail. When the products of these three alliances become more and more powerful, they will become When the world's first store.

Xiao Qi's pace did not stop because of the success of DreamPad and, on the contrary, his acquisitions became more and more frequent. Maybe you don’t know. Taking advantage of the subprime mortgage crisis, he first spent US$1 billion to acquire Ericsson’s mobile phone and wireless communication equipment patents, and then spent US$2.3 billion to acquire more than 6,000 Nortel Networks patents as a whole. In a few days, he bought Infineon and Qimonda again at a price of 10 billion U.S. dollars.

From here, we can see that in addition to having two major experimental bases in China and the United States, Xiao Qi’s industrial patent coverage for smart electronics is already covered from top to bottom, and it is difficult to find another person. Like his strength in smart electronics, even the joint efforts of Nokia and Motorola dare not say that they can win Xiao Qi! To be continued.
