Chapter 368 Hold Seven Inches
Just look at the Rolls-Royce in the 1970s, and you will know the sales strategies of several major luxury brands.
England from top to bottom is pursuing the strategy that good things are only sold to established, established families.
And the consequence of this is that the English feel that their face has been saved.
But what will be lost in the future is not just Rolls-Royce and several luxury brands, which will lose their competitiveness.
It is the export volume of the whole of England, not to mention compared with France, even the Netherlands, Belgium, and even Singapore, which is a tiny place.
Therefore, the old guys didn't think there was a problem at all when they heard Li Changheng's words, which were obviously deceitful or even perfunctory. Instead, they thought that England should sell high-end products.
When Li Changheng said that automation can be applied to home appliances such as coffee pots, microwave ovens, induction cookers, and water heaters.
Devin, Campbell, and Mountbatten were as expected, looking at him like moving banknotes, but Philip's gaze was the same, and at the same time, he regretted that he hadn't communicated with him earlier.
Li Changheng smiled and clapped his hands, "You give me 80% of the shares of the London Telephone Company, and I promise to help you develop a special and most difficult chip.
And don't want the shares of the new home appliance company, and promise to keep it secret for you, and until the sales of new products reach 1 million units, the chips will only be supplied to you. "
Li Changheng's calculation is very precise.
If you want a stake in the All England Telephone Company, let alone an aristocrat, even if Downing Street buys it with a double premium, it is impossible to get 80% of it, or even a controlling stake.
But it's just a stake in the London Telephone Company, and that's not a big problem.
As long as the access permit is obtained, they can use London's market and capital advantages to invade several counties around London.
And at this time, Intel's chips can be said to not even be considered a start, so it is impossible for him to produce them immediately.
Fortunately, until the 4004 processor was produced, all electronic products were dedicated and dedicated chips.
In the future, when watching videos, it will be normal for computers to not only run chat tools, but also download files or run games.
But at this time, you want to run these programs at the same time, not to mention whether the computer can drive it, but you have to install video processors, chat tool processors, game running processors, and other chips in the computer at the same time.
Therefore, once Intel's general-purpose processor is developed, it can grab the market in the computer industry, as well as various markets in the home appliance industry and the automotive industry that require processors.
Moreover, Li Changheng himself did not participate in the home appliance company, but was able to change his identity and become the existence that restricted Campbell, Devon and other nobles.
"Henry, are you really not involved in the new company?"
Li Changheng shrugged, smiled and said to Philip who asked the question, "Only by making this business yours can I be freed from the identity restricted by you.
Once you go back, I will tell these ideas to my collaborators in the United States.
Surely they would be happy to buy chips from my chip-making company and give me some shares in Motorola at the same time. "
The three old men except Philip suddenly felt that the young man in front of him was definitely the most cunning young man he had ever seen in his 60 or 70 years of life.
He is also the person who can see the essence of things clearly and understands what it means to be willing and reasonable.
"So, you don't actually see the ultimate prospect of the home appliance industry, but think that the telephone company, which has begun to monopolize only by policy, is the best business in the future?"
Li Changheng shrugged, "Sorry, business secret."
After finishing speaking, after a few seconds of silence, he explained and changed the subject, "Just like I gave the induction cooker to Grosvenor, the home appliance industry will definitely be a labor-intensive and highly competitive industry in the future.
He is suitable for those of you who have huge influence in England and desperately need to restore their reputations, but for me the energy and benefits are really not matched.
There are a lot of ideas in my mind, but it is impossible to realize everything.
If you want to install a protection for yourself, you can only attract more capable people to make money together.
As for robbing the islanders and East Germans of the market, you and the Americans will certainly not mind, and even wish for that, right! "
The four of Philip looked at each other, and finally Mountbatten sighed, "I think you should be an economic adviser to Downing Street.
At least in terms of practical technology, that is, technology products that can be exported to earn foreign exchange, you must be more familiar and better than those old guys like me. "
"forget it."
Li Changheng chuckled, "Some time ago, there was an American guy who asked me to join the advisory group of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and even gave me a colonel as long as I was willing."
Mountbatten, Devin and Campbell frowned immediately.
Only Philip smiled and waved his hands, "Don't worry, maybe it's because he's too smart, Henry is afraid of trouble.
Even if he is given the position of a powerful colonel, it is better to help him take care of the company, which is more in line with his wishes. "
After finishing speaking, the old man looked at Li Changheng and said, "I'm right, kid?"
Li Changheng shrugged, the relationship between himself and Annie has reached such a point, it is completely fine for him to call him a child.
"You have 4 months to consider and acquire the shares of England Telephone Company, and in February next year, after the research on the chip that I am in charge of, you still haven't given me an answer or a share.
I will have a good talk with the Americans.
Moreover, I guarantee that even if you have 4 months to research and register patents, your products will never be sold in the US market. "
The four old men didn't need Li Changheng's explanation to understand that when Americans play tricks, they are definitely more like bullies than villains.
On the contrary, Philip is the least concerned about this business, because not only the financial situation of the royal family is by no means as bad as the outside world thinks, but the mask business that Li Changheng brought out has already made the old man understand.
With Li Changheng, the prospective son-in-law, their family will not be short of profitable business.
And he had already understood it more than ten years ago, no money is not enough, but too much money is sometimes a super trouble.
Otherwise, the royal family private equity fund would not have been established early in the morning to hide from the outside world how much property and wealth the royal family has.
What's more, he didn't even figure out the market of the mask, and used his relationship and interests to half sell and half give away Howard's End worth 8 million pounds to Li Changheng.
Of course, Li Changheng knew that in the long run, Philip's family must have taken advantage, but the future is the future.
In fact, there are many ways to make money, and there are many reasons for the failure to grow, but the operation is definitely the most important part.
There must be operators in this world who turn a good hand of cards into a mess.
