Tech Life Chapter 1375-1376

 Chapter 1375

The feeling at the moment is: chaos, chaos, chaos, chaos.


        While the uninformed are trembling and in the dark, a small group of people who know the truth are making a lot of money.


        The securities market, the stock market, the crude oil market and so on, the domestic and foreign predators are most active at this time of year, and it can be said that it is their day of revelry.


        Five days later, Li Linfei saw the recent news that both sides were getting a bit high on the tempo, one more ruthless than the other. Even he was not calm anymore and immediately contacted a group of allies such as the auto giants and semiconductor giants on the old US side to calm down Wall Street and K Street, and also contacted his own family on this side.


        No one fished more than Belly Rabbit and Hawk Sauce, and no, there was a sulking European.


        Apart from these three, who are farmers, the rest are leeks in the ground.


        In short, Li Linfei think this thing has to stop, see good, must also stop, this trip to the water mixed for so long should be clear, but also continue to be unhappy to stir, when the world is still a pot of paste, then I future technology group still sell or not sell phc?


        If my phc flops, we all play off together.


        Naturally, no one will pick up the seeds and lose the watermelon, and after two days, this double act is the turn of the Americans to make an impact, this day the old U.S. Department of Commerce's hand Will Polos came across the Pacific Ocean.


        A time, the global vision for the attention, many of the pitted small countries and victims are eagerly awaiting, hope that these two big brothers this time the consultation can have a breakthrough, do not toss again.


        ......


        At the headquarters of the Future Technology Group, in the chairman's office, Li Linfei, who was sitting with his legs crossed on the sofa by the window, was watching the video news on the holographic projection.


        In the video screen, Willopolos was being asked by a cnbc reporter about the upcoming consultations and said back, "There have been talks between the two sides for many, many years, and we think it's time to take real action."


        With that said, the bald man on camera, Los, shrugged his shoulders and the cnbc reporter interviewing him asked again, "So Mr Los what are your expectations for this negotiation?"


        At this Wilberforce looked at the reporter and said calmly, "If I didn't think there was hope, I wouldn't have come all the way across the Pacific, would I?"


        But the reporter from CNBC choked, "Sorry, I remember you saying the same thing last time!"


        Willopoulos pursed his lips for a moment, an expression was created, and after a moment he had to say, "This time it's different."


        Reporter: "Yes, that's what you said last time too!"


        I don't know why, Li Linfei saw this news interview in the video, a bit of inexplicable déjà vu, well whatever, keep watching.


        In the video, Li Linfei felt that the old man, Wilbur Ross, definitely wanted to beat this reporter up after hearing this, but of course this matter could only be thought and cursed in his heart.


        Soon after, Wilbur said with a helpless expression on his face, "The truth is, there's no way you can prejudge this kind of thing, you never know what's going on until you actually get into the conference room."


        "These negotiations have been going on for many years, the talk is old hat, the issues are actually very clear in front of everyone, I expect to finish my trip to China this week, if we can't solve the problems, then let's go home early."


        Hearing a knock at the door, Li Linfei glanced sideways at the office door before withdrawing his gaze.


        "Come in!"


        Li Bingling came in with a document and seeing Li Linfei watching the cnbc news broadcast with interest, he couldn't help but make a comment, "Judging from the recent news, the whole world is about to be played by you big predators."


        Li Linfei looked at the video screen in front of him had ended the interview, the camera had cut to the studio, a few Yankee analysts began to talk about it in a big way, the American empire also has experts ah, only that side is called analysts.


        "Play bad?" Raising his hand in a gentle sweep, the holographic display all disappeared with it, Li Linfei picked up a cup of tea on the table and took a sip, smiled, and said calmly: "In my opinion it's just a global macro resource allocation or a structural reorganization in domination."


        Swirling his thighs kan added: "There are only three types of people in this world, one type is the owner of the resources."


        "In fact, it does not matter who owns the resources, the key is to have the right to allocate or dominate the resources, the money in the bank is all depositors, but how long to deposit it means losing how long the right to dominate, not to mention the other, so much wealth inter-bank lending rate for a day can generate how much revenue?"


        "Then there is the category of resource allocators, engaged in the input, integration, operation and output of resources in human material production activities, or resource players, of which I, now, am one of the very few heavyweight players."


        "The last category is the resource sellers, which are themselves nothing more than allocated resources or carriers of resources."


        "In this world, those who see through to the essence are those who play with resource allocation, politicians who have no capital but can use the nation's resources and even influence the global flow of resources."


        "Financial capitalists and industrial giants are able to use a small amount of capital and can use the financial system to dominate large amounts of other people's assets."


        "So the resources are nominally all owned by the general public, but in reality they are all owned by those who allocate them, and the money in the banks is owned by the depositors? Legally yes, but it's actually the banker's, and the key to seeing how much power someone has is how much resources they can allocate."


        "So some people get played out for sure, like Little Ben almost got played out in this restructuring of global resource allocation, ha."


        ......


        With phc release production since, the Pearl River Delta's electrical products manufacturing industry ushered in a good period of time, the future technology group to release production of 20 million sets of phc equipment, which means bringing more than $120 billion in output value, equivalent to more than 800 billion yuan of orders were divided upstream and downstream major supply chains.


        The original are laying off staff or even because there is no work to take and to face closure of the manufacturing factories are immediately prosperous, the future technology group orders outsourced to the major supply chain, all of a sudden from the beginning of no work to now the single are almost unable to take over.


Chapter 1376

The Future Technology Group naturally cannot shell out more than $100 billion all at once, nor can the upstream and downstream supply chains be eaten up in one go.


        The first phase of the future technology group will drop more than $20 billion, that is, 140 billion yuan, a third of the money earned last year all put into phc release production, and with phc sales so far, the second phase of investment will follow after the return of funds.


        ......


        "This is the progress report on the layout of the phc retail channel offline shops that Cheng Ze put together." Li Bingling whirled around and brought over an extra document to hand to him, and Li Linfei opened it and looked at it.


        Cheng Ze, after the completion of the global layout of the super generation mobile phone, this guy is not much of a big deal, but he is now the group vice president of retail of the future technology group, no, now promoted.


        He is the senior retail president of the Future Technology Group, but of course he is no match for Li Bingling, who is now the executive president of the Future Technology Group, and his task is now the global layout of phc.


        Cheng Ze has been flying back and forth between the eastern and western hemispheres of the earth for three days since he took up the post of senior retail president of the Future Technology Group, but Li Linfei has given him full authority to execute the globalization strategy of phc's offline retail layout.


        "Hmm?" Li Linfei looked at his progress report and froze. He looked up at Li Bingling, opened his mouth but then stopped speaking, then turned back to the document and said, slightly stunned: "A three-pronged attack, simultaneously advancing in three markets: domestic, North America and Europe? This guy's steps are really exciting. Does this guy think this is like the layout of the original Super Generation mobile phone? Do you want to play so excitingly?"


        According to Cheng Ze's progress report, he has already taken care of 42 of the 79 offline shops set for the country, and is expected to expand to 53 direct offline shops come June 15, the launch date.


        It's only been a few days?


        "Three strikes, three prongs, how did this guy do it? By the way, how many employees are already in the phc retail shops now?" Li Linfei said with great curiosity.


        "Including the after-sales channel there are already 17,000 people in total, including 3,780 overseas employees, and it's still growing massively." Li Bingling had also done a lot of homework and was able to answer precisely when asked.


        Li Linfei could not help but nod, offline retail shop employees this piece, is expected to need 450,000 people scale, this is to do the difference between the real economy and the Internet virtual economy, Apple's retail shop employees is as much as 70,000 scale of the huge.


        In the future, the future technology group's offline physical retail shop employees to complete the global layout, its scale is not weak than Apple's lineup, or even more, because the automotive sector will also follow this piece, when the after-sales channel plus retail shops, this piece of the global employees are afraid to exceed the scale of 100,000 people.


        At this point, Li Bingling couldn't help but complain: "It's just that the expansion of Cheng's retail channel under the bus is too costly, with money to make way, this is already over budget by 24.8, you know what he said? I'm afraid it's going to have to be about 47 over budget and an additional $2.1 billion to spend!"


        The global layout of phc's offline retail shops is budgeted at around 50 billion yuan, or about seven billion dollars, that means the final outlay may have to reach a sky-high eight billion dollars.


        "Since the full authority is given to Lao Cheng, then don't limit his play, who let him make the performance before, there is a solid war record we have nothing to say, the budget overspending so much, but according to this progress report, ironically earn more, that's enough." Li Linfei said with a smile.


        He obviously didn't care much about the investment, to be honest, he had expected to get the domestic market done this year and that would be OK, but he never expected Cheng Ze to do so well, far beyond his expectations, this guy is either crazy or a marketing genius.


        The spread of offline sales channels far exceeded expectations, which means that phc sales expectations can be adjusted upwards significantly, and will definitely be higher than the original estimate by a large margin.


        "Overspending is overspending, that's not the point, the point is where did he spend the money?" Li Linfei asked again, this was what he was more concerned about.


        Li Bingling: "High price poaching everywhere, especially Apple, this time he did the same trick again, still at Apple, another place is where he used to work Robella he didn't let go either."


        "This time Cook had no choice, this time it was Angela Ahrendts, senior vice president of Apple retail shops, who personally stepped in and went to call him to talk to him and express his strong dissatisfaction with this continued peach-picking behaviour, that was last week, the two sides met in Seattle, do you know what Cheng did?" Li Bingling said.


        "Done what?" Li Linfei asked subconsciously, taking a sip from his tea in his hand.


        "Angela Ahrendts approached him for a talk, but he wanted to poach even her over to be the senior vice president of the retail department of the Future Technology Group, something that Cheng strongly proposed to the headquarters side to poach Angela Ahrendts over from Apple at a high price."


        "Poof ......" is drinking tea Li Linfei once heard this, directly a mouthful of spray out, Li Bingling is also shocked dark fortunately sitting on the other side of.


        Then Li Linfei looked at her with a stunned face and said, "He's crazy, isn't he afraid that Cook will beat him up if he finds out?"


        Of course it was a joke, but Li Bingling couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh when she heard the stunned expression on her face, not forgetting to wipe the table with a tissue, while Li Linfei put down the cup of tea in his hand and asked with the interest of a curious baby, "Interesting, what happened back there?"


        Throwing the paper towel into the waste basket, Li Bingling picked up, "What else could it be? Arentz managed to get so angry with him that he just dumped him in the face and left, that was Cheng's exact words."


        "Haha ......" Li Linfei couldn't help but laugh out loud, subconsciously saying, "I didn't think that old Cheng was really a heck of a talent!"


        The company's vision is also poisonous enough. Angela Arbenz is also a luxury fashion industry turned technology industry, and those employees in Apple's offline shops can be said to have been coached by her.


        And phc's positioning and Angela Ahrendts' business philosophy is also highly overlapping, no wonder that the old Cheng guy will be twice in a row dead set on Apple's people crazy poaching, even the Apple retail shoulders are targeted.
