After sprint got the money from Li Zetian's loan, it was so confident that it finally bought gte for $4 billion before Christmas.
As soon as the news came out, it shook the industry, sprint company can be compared with seven small Bell companies in the local telephone business!
"From now on, sprint can greatly develop network access services!"
In the ceo office of sprint company, Li Zetian said solemnly, "although the data transmission speed provided by galaxy-model is only 2400bit/s, it is enough for computer users, such as browsing bbs, sending emails, playing mud Games, exchanging information, transferring files, etc.”
Mud games are a general term for text online games, and are also the earliest online games. They have no graphics and are all composed of text and character drawings.
Right now, the internet speed is just like that, which can only drive text, graphics and video to death.
However, for the "turkeys" who haven't played online games at the moment, it's already very fun.
Flamingo has developed a lot of mud games for this, and the results are very popular.
Li Zetian sometimes goes for a walk when he has nothing to do, but he can't bear to let a person from 2016 play the mud games of the 1980s.
The CEO of sprint responded quickly: "Okay, mr·li, I got it!"
"Well..." Li Zetian nodded, then asked, "Has the submarine optical cable been built successfully?"
"Yes, it has been built successfully, sprint is cooperating with Hong Kong Telephone Company to carry out international long distance calling business and inter network access service!"
The word "inter" came out of Li Zetian's mouth, and then spread in the sprint company, and then spread to the outside world, becoming the new name of the network.
Li Zetian's face showed a hint of joy, very satisfied. Hong Kong will be connected to the inter network so soon, much earlier than in the previous life.
"After the construction of the Asian submarine optical cable is completed, I think it is time to build a submarine optical cable from the United States to Europe." Li Zetian said thoughtfully.
"mr·li, the submarine optical cable in Europe really needs to be built, but the company has just acquired gte, and the funds are tight, maybe it should be delayed for a year!"
Li Zetian waved his hand and said, "Don't worry about funding, I will inject capital into sprint next year to start the project!"
After the dividend is distributed at the end of this year, Li Zetian can get a lot of money again. Due to the crazy devaluation of the dollar, the money will shrink seriously if it is not spent.
The "Plaza Accord" is fucked up too!
So far, the dollar has lost nearly 30% of its value.
That is, the original $100 is only worth $70.
Depend on! ! !
However, Li Zetian still has a trace of luck in his heart. He has invested a lot of money in Japanese real estate, and now he has made a lot of money. Sell real estate for Japanese yen in the future, and then exchange Japanese yen for US dollars, and wow, that must be a lot of dollars in exchange!
The CEO of sprint company saw that Li Zetian was so rich and rich, so he didn't say anything, anyway, it was good for sprint company to build a submarine optical cable to Europe.
After Li Zetian explained the matter, it was already noon, and Li Zetian ate something casually at a nearby restaurant. Dongfang Yuqin was not by his side, and went to discuss the establishment of an umbrella insurance company with Sandy Weir and Jamie Dimon.
Establishing an insurance company requires an insurance license. If you don’t have one, acquiring an insurance company is naturally the fastest way, and there are ready-made markets and talents.
…
On the morning of December 20, Dongfang Yuqin returned to Li Zetian's house and told him that the umbrella insurance company had been built.
Li Zetian inquired a little, then said no more.
Of course, fat water does not flow to outsiders, Li Zetian will let the company under his name help employees buy insurance from the umbrella insurance company~~
In a blink of an eye, another year has passed.
In early January 1986, the company's annual financial statements were sent to Li Zetian.
Dongfang Yuqin sorted it out, listed a table in order of revenue, and handed it to Li Zetian.
[Company Name] [Revenue] [Profit] [Market Value] (Unit: USD 100 million)
1. Gene Technology 51484 1010
2. Flamingo 271 46 560
3. Apple 222 54 530
4. Intel 174 34 402
5. Microsoft 168 40 452
6. Disney 154 28 210
…
…
"The price is rising fast!" Li Zetian couldn't help sighing after reading the form.
Dongfang Yuqin smiled slightly and joked: "mr.li, fortunately, you acquired Forbes Group a few years ago! Otherwise, these data will be released and the children will be frightened!"
Li Zetian couldn't help laughing: "Be low-key, you will be jealous of showing off your wealth!"
Indeed, since Forbes magazine first announced his wealth, Li Zetian hated it so much that he decided to send someone to buy it. After that, every year, Li Zetian still occupied the position of the richest man in the world, but his assets rose very slowly. People thought that Li Zetian was worth less than $200 billion. As everyone knows, there are already 450 billion US dollars! ! !
"mr·li, the Umbrella Company received $7.15 billion in dividends."
Dongfang Yuqin reminded that she knew that the dollar had been depreciating, and Li Zetian would find a way to spend the money.
Li Zetian took a sip of apple juice and frowned slightly.
"The money must be spent as soon as possible, or it will depreciate. Alas, I am probably the richest man in the world who worries about how to spend it!" Li Zetian laughed at himself.
Dongfang Yuqin covered her mouth and chuckled, she had never seen Li Zetian so traumatized.
Li Zetian looked up at her and asked, "Dongfang Yuqin, what do you think I do with this money?"
"mr·li, it's used for corporate mergers and acquisitions expansion, this money is easy to spend!"
"Well, that's true! Thinking about it this way, I suddenly realized that the money might not be enough..." Li Zetian's eyes lit up, he thought for a moment, and said, "I recently acquired several German companies, and I think German companies are conscientious and conscientious. Being down-to-earth and attaching importance to technology development, I can't help but have a good impression of German companies!"
"mr·li, do you want to buy a German company?"
"Well, yes, like sap, Bosch, Siemens, Bayer, BASF, BMW..."
After listening to what Li Zetian said, Dongfang Yuqin's sexy mouth opened, and it could almost fit an egg.
Fortunately, sap is similar to Oracle's business, but the current scale is not large, and it is relatively easy to acquire it. As for other companies, it is not easy to acquire any one.
"Take your time, they will all belong to me sooner or later! I want to buy the earth and become the first person in history!" Li Zetian said jokingly, "Okay, let's make fun of you! Take it to develop inter. However, it should not cost much to acquire sap company, you can send someone to communicate with sap company to see if they are willing to accept my investment and become a shareholder!”
"Oh!"
Dongfang Yuqin's big eyes rolled at Li Zetian, and she walked to the side to make a phone call and arrange for someone to buy sap.
Li Zetian stood up, stretched, and walked to the window, looking at the sky. In fact, Li Zetian was not joking just now, he really wanted to win these companies. Physical technology is the foundation, and the Internet is a bit empty.
