1 Elsa naturally doesn’t know how great the benefits of the future mobile phone platform will be. Apple’s 100 billion U.S. dollars of reserves cannot be raised by selling hardware alone, but if it relies on selling software platforms, it will be

Very thumbs up.

But it is a pity that such a platform cannot be run on current machines, at least it will have to wait until smartphones.

Mobile phone chips are different from computer chips. One thing about mobile phone chips is very important: power consumption.

If the power consumption is too high, the use time of the mobile phone will be very short. Many people are still not optimistic about smart phones at the beginning of the century. One of the big reasons is that the battery of the mobile phone is not strong and the power consumption of the chip is too high.

Of course, this problem is basically being solved later, but the battery life is still criticized by many people.

So far, this problem has become more serious.

It seems possible to use lead-acid batteries, or to replace them with other alternatives, but the problem is that the battery life is a headache, and although dry batteries are easy to replace, they are not very convenient.

"Ah, smartphones are really far away. We should just try our best to operate our products well now."

Catherine finally concluded like this.

"What should we do next?" Elsa asked.

"The next thing we have to do is to popularize it."

Yes, the next thing Catherine has to do is to popularize the Internet.

With the expansion of cloud systems, many capitalists who see business opportunities have taken a fancy to this big piece of cake.

The profits that the Internet can bring are huge, and this huge cake is even unimaginable by people today.

Even if it is like the Apple mobile phone in the 21st century under the leadership of Steve Jobs, if it does not rely on the Internet, it will be difficult to achieve such powerful achievements in the future.

How to make people like the Internet?

Video seems to be a very good method, but today's computers are still not very powerful on the chip, so it seems a little impossible here.

But in addition, the Internet can also bring other enjoyments to people.

"For example, Internet games such as "Magic World". We need to make people fall in love with our network and let them stay in front of the computer all the time. Even if they go to work, they always think of the Internet."

"It sounds a bit like drugs," Elsa complained respectfully.

"If you take it to the extreme, this is indeed an electronic drug, ah, of course." From another positive perspective, this can also represent a brand new life.

Catherine is a representative who supports the view that "people are born with evil nature". For everything, Catherine first thinks of the worst plan. After thinking of the worst plan, her thinking will gradually move towards good things.

Go closer.

"The Soviets' mobile phones are an era behind ours. I don't think we need to worry at all..."

Kailin waved her hand.

Historically, Motorola launched its mobile phone in 1999, but if they had launched it two years earlier, they would not have been able to shake the sales of Catherine's products.

Catherine's base stations and networks have begun to cover the entire United States. Although the current coverage is not very high, it is already expanding downwards. If Motorola launches a mobile phone now, it may have a great impact on Catherine.

But after a year, it will definitely have stabilized. By then, for me, I won't care about those two points.

Therefore, this year is a critical moment. Catherine decided to spend 200 million yuan to complete the construction of the first step of mobile phone base stations. Otherwise, there will be big problems in the future.

"Elsa, how much liquidity does our company still have?"

"If the total cash reserves are added up, it will be around 260 million. Because the Nimbus game console was put into production before, there is still a lot of funds that have not been recovered yet."

"Well, let's temporarily spend 100 million U.S. dollars." We fully support U.S. Telecom in building mobile base stations. Within this year, we will invest another 100 million U.S. dollars. In addition, all the revenue from Google's mobile phones and China Unicom's operating revenue will also be invested.

, in recent years we have focused on strengthening the construction of mobile phones and the Internet, these two points are very critical."

Although the companies are different, the funds are all deposited in small banks affiliated with the Ark Group, so fund operations are easy.

"I see."

Elsa wrote down everything Catherine said in her notebook.

Catherine doesn't have much control now and is very relaxed. After all, the company's affairs are presided over by the company's CEO.

, but Catherine discovered that the company's CEO seemed to be a little different from the future.

This doesn’t just refer to Catherine, but also includes many American companies that have followed suit.

The CEO's autonomy and rights seem to have been slightly weakened compared to history, and Catherine's strategy of holding the equity in her hands and then handing the options to employees seems to be gradually being adopted.

, many people like Catherine who have a strong desire for control have also adopted the option model. Although the number is not large, it is gradually expanding.

Catherine's influence on the world has become greater and greater, although some of it cannot be known to Catherine herself, but it is indeed very touching.

"Then let's do this for the time being..." Catherine thought about it and decided like this for the time being...

The next day, naturally, the company sent people to contact Jeep, and the "quasi-Hummer" with a new electronic display was tentatively decided.

This new car must be named "Hummer" so that it can have the pleasure of stealing history. This is what Catherine thinks.

Of course, the specific things are not that simple.

Since it is a cooperation between two companies, things that need to be talked about are much more troublesome.

Moreover, Jeep has recently changed to a new owner, so everything may have to be started from scratch, which may take a long time.

"This is really good..."

Just when Jeep was in contact with Intel, Catherine's car also arrived.

There are two cars in total, both customized by Catherine.

"It looks really thick..."

Elsa was standing in front of one of the black sports cars at the moment.

The appearance of this car is very smooth, with rounded lines, which is very different from the current square, angular shape.

Not only that, the outside of the car is also waxed, making it look shiny. If the appearance of this car were brought to the 21st century, it would definitely be considered a high-end product like Matilati or Rolls-Royce.

.

But for Americans today, it seems that few people have seen this type of car. "It's a pity that it's just an illusion." Although most of the suggestions were made by Catherine, Catherine took the current situation into consideration.

The car's structure is thought out, and it is not a true "modern car" - although it looks very cool.

The thick appearance is natural, but in fact this is a bulletproof car.

To be more precise, this should be a car specially equipped with B.

The appearance is simple but not simple, and coupled with the rich connotation, the most important thing is that this kind of car cannot be bought outside. This is definitely the favorite of people who pretend to be 13.

Catherine knocked on the glass, which was of course bulletproof glass. Then, Catherine opened the car door.

“wow…

The inside of the car is also so gorgeous." Elsa was amazed again.

"This is necessary!" Catherine clasped her hands.

There are leather seats inside the car, which gives people a comfortable feeling.

"But it's a pity that this car can't run too fast." Catherine shook her head. This is the biggest problem. Because the appearance adopts a bulletproof design, the car is very thick, which means that the car will be very heavy.

After all, the car motors of the 1960s were not as powerful as those of the future.

And there is another point, that is, if the car is too heavy and the speed is too fast, the inertia will be very large. If you are not afraid of ten thousand, you are afraid of the worst. If there is a car accident or something, it will be dangerous. Of course, Catherine

He won't run too fast either.

"But if you want to go out, it would be cooler to use another car." Lereira walked over from the side.

"That convertible?" Elsa certainly knew what kind of car Catherine designed, but she had never seen the real thing.

"Elsa, I guarantee you will fall in love with that car. It's so handsome~"

Lyreira was obviously fascinated by the car.

"Is it that magical?"

“You’ll know after you go and see it.”

Catherine pulled Elsa to another garage.

Then, Elsa saw a silver sports car.

"It's... cool

""

Elsa seemed to be unable to find adjectives.

Catherine's car is of course an appearance taken from the 21st century according to her own aesthetics. Although it still has no connotation, the car is already very popular based on the skin on the outside.

Although there were many classic convertibles in the 1960s, there was no such classic silver convertible sports car as the Catherine. Apart from anything else, just in terms of its streamlined appearance, it was no longer of this era.

As you can imagine, Catherine bets that even if there are designers who agree with her at this time, there probably won't be many cars like this.

"It's a pity that it's winter now." Catherine shook her head: "If it were summer, I would drive this car out and let those country bumpkins whose ideas are still stuck in the Middle Ages see my creativity..."

Catherine is rightly complaining. Ever since she discovered that she was left behind by the people of the 1960s in terms of fashion, Catherine has always liked to compare herself with people of that time...@.
