Chapter 1005 $25 Million

Robert Calvin looked helplessly at Iridium's financial report.

—It’s hopeless.

Yes, the entire plan is no longer worth saving.

As the head of Motorola, Robert Calvin has realized that this plan is the biggest mistake of his life.

It wasn't just the beginning of the plan that went wrong.

One wrong step, one wrong step after another, and the entire plan is wrong from beginning to end.

At the beginning, there might have been a chance of saving the entire plan, but now... this plan has completely lost its value.

It only took a few years to go from a market value of billions of dollars to the current negative equity.

The historical Iridium Project was born during Calvin's period - but he soon left the company, and he was not involved in this project at all later on.

And current history shows that although there is Calvin, without historical perspective, it will eventually be defeated.

—After all, historically, this was also the plan proposed by Motorola in the 1980s.

Robert Galvin is the son of Motorola founder Paul Galvin. He has served as CEO of Motorola for nearly 30 years. He served as CEO of Motorola from 1959 to 1986 and served as chairman until 1990.

When the other party took office in 1959, the company's annual revenue was only $2, but by the time he resigned as chairman in 1990, annual revenue had grown to $10.8 billion.

The Iridium project is very promising, and Calvin will never deny this.

But why does a good plan develop into negative equity in the end?

According to Calvin's idea, the Iridium Project has shareholders from all over the world, so if the Iridium Project wants to conduct business around the world, it will rely on these global shareholders.

But things went counterproductive.

The shareholders come from all over the world, which indeed allows them to enter the local market without any obstacles... However, there is no local market for Iridium mobile phones!

Not every shareholder knows how to sell.

At that time, Calvin wanted Motorola to help these people promote their business.

But these people generally believe that Motorola and Atet want to sideline them, and finally get rid of them after the market matures, so they all quit... although this is indeed what Calvin intended.

And if they don't do it, the result will be tragic.

Up to now, there are only 550,000 Iridium mobile phone users, which is less than one-twentieth of Apple mobile phone users!

This huge gap made Calvin realize that he had made a huge mistake.

This change made him sigh.

The decisive Calvin immediately put a price tag of 100 million U.S. dollars—almost 200 million U.S. dollars along with debt—and was ready to sell Iridium.

During the planning process, they were too timid. If they had developed the entire plan by themselves at the beginning, there would definitely be nothing that happened later. But it is a pity that Motorola could not take that kind of gamble.

The courage, and because ATET is also facing problems such as adsl, they naturally cannot show that kind of courage - the other party is even more distressed than Motorola.

But now, it is not easy for this group of headless rabble to develop the Iridium project!

The whole plan completely failed and died.

However, when the other party sold the Iridium satellite, they had unanimous opinions - no one wanted to bear the 100 million debt.

"Mr. Calvin, someone wants to acquire Iridium!"

At this moment, the secretary ran over excitedly.

"Is there anyone who really wants to acquire it?"

Although Calvin put a price tag of 100 million, in his mind, if it could be given away for free, it would be a good idea, otherwise the debts would make people miserable.

"Who is it?"

Calvin asked immediately.

"America Mobile. They are prepared to pay $25 million for the acquisition...but not including debt."

USA Mobile!

It's them!

Calvin's complexion suddenly turned bad.

US Mobile is Iridium’s rival!

Although Iridium mobile phones are ostensibly competing with Apple mobile phones, it is America Mobile Communications that operates the entire CDMA network!

American Mobile, American Unicom, and American Telecom! These three companies are all owned by Ark Group and are directly controlled by Ark Bank.

The other party is Motorola's former rival.

- I say "once" because Motorola tried to enter the private business several times, but was slapped back by the other party.

And they stopped doing these related businesses after that.

"They want Iridium? Why? Why do they want Iridium?"

This matter made Calvin very confused.

Could it be that there is real value in Iridium that has not been discovered?

Calvin was confused.

"Who wants to acquire it? Is it Ralph or someone higher up?"

The one who has been fighting with Iridium has always been America Mobile's self-help, but this acquisition plan... seems to be somewhat different from Ralph's previous methods.

If it were Ralph, the other party would never shout out a price like "twenty-five million dollars."

Although the current Iridium company is still not doing well, the relative situation is much better than in history.

The addition of atet makes Iridium's plan more technical, and Iridium's development period is better than ever!

Twenty million US dollars is absolutely not something Iridium can get!

Although he was planning to sell it, he actually wanted to acquire Iridium for US$25 million, excluding debt. Such a crazy move was definitely not the work of a steady person like Ralph.

Is that the one above?

At this time, a name suddenly appeared in Ralph's mind: Catherine Edson.

Ark Bank is the core bank of Ark Group. The other party uses this bank to effectively coordinate and allocate funds for its various businesses.

But the entire Ark Group ultimately belongs to only one person: Catherine Edson.

Catherine Edson, who pioneered the option model, still has some status in Calvin's heart, so at this time, Calvin thought of her.

—Well, Catherine's option model has influenced the current generation of Americans. Many big bosses now prefer to adopt the option model instead of directly selling equity because they were influenced by Catherine.

This is one of the most ridiculous changes in history.

"Why would she want to acquire Iridium?"

Iridium did cause a sensation when it first appeared, but as their opponent, American Mobile, there was no reaction at all. The other party continued to develop on its own, completely ignoring Iridium, and it was the same even later.

The development of the whole thing made Calvin a little invisible at that time.

Until recently, his plan was about to fail, Calvin knew that the United States Mobile, or the Ark Group's response to its own plan: There was no future at all.

Of course, a destined bleak plan cannot make the other party truly vigilant.

But after your own failure, the other party wanted to take over. You thought you were a receiver, and said that you would take over the market! You know, if you are not an affordable man, you want to take over, and you can queue up!

"Mr. Calvin, do you want me to refuse her back for you?"

The secretary asked.

"No!"

There was a sudden light in Calvin's eyes.

"We promise them but add another condition -I want the technology that I want to move in the United States!"

The debt can also bear it, but the technology of the United States Mobile ... This is a must!

"What? That guy really agreed?!"

Speaking in such a bad language is Elsa, who is not Catherine but contaminated with Catherine's bad habit.

After hearing the other's voice, Catherine smiled very interestingly.

As for the authorization of that CDMA technology, Catherine and Elsa naturally ignore it.

Considering data transmission, Catherine is ready to study new technologies that can transmit data. Although it is also CDMA, its technology content and concept are not exactly the same.

For Catherine's side, there is no pressure at all ...

Catherine still can't do this ...

Well, you can continue to pit the other party with this technology.

Although Catherine has authorized mobile phones to produce or something, it must be used by Catherine's chip, and Motorola's movement allows them to use their own chips, but the new generation of technology must have new specifications.

To continue to have mobile phones that can access the Internet, then you must ask Catherine to buy a new generation of technology here.

Catherine will of course give these people an upgraded version rather than the new version.

But Catherine did not intend to hide this technology in the future.

Catherine has discussed with Texas instruments. After two or three years, everyone can produce their own mobile phone chips ...

The era of smart machines is still early, but the difference between mobile phones and the prosperity of mobile phones are the goals that can be turned on now.

"But unfortunately, I didn't find Koruci ..."

There is only one name, it is really difficult to find someone.

But Catherine is already ready to take over the stars. When the business of Lianxing has entered the regular business, he will find another one to replace the president, and then it will be fine.

However, Catherine did not expect to give it to the subordinates now -because some things, not people in this era can see through, those who need a certain strategic vision that transcend the era to see.

And this is the best to give it to Catherine, which is cheap to take advantage of history.

Taking advantage of history and use value, Catherine wants to quickly splurge.

According to the current historical development, Catherine feels that in about the 1980s, the world will be completely separated from its own cognition, so it is better to borrow the momentum at this time, then borrow it to play ...

Second more!
