Giant of the times

"Mr. Li, this is the factory information of Cronos Steel Company!" Selina handed Li Zetian a document and said, "Cronos Company is preparing to build a large steel plant in Nevada with an investment budget of Control it within 5 billion US dollars! The factory is preparing to customize special robots from Robot-X and purchase the best equipment and instruments, striving to build the most advanced and technologically styled steel factory in the world!"

"Haha, it sounds interesting. Don't worry about money. You must build the steel plant well!" Li Zetian said with a smile. Billions of dollars are nothing for Li Zetian. As long as they are used in the right places, he is not afraid of spending more money.

"yes!"

Li Zetian asked: "How long will it take to build the new factory?"

"It will take about two or three years!" Selina said.

After Li Zetian was silent for a moment, he said: "It actually takes so long! Then... before that, we can only reserve talents and purchase some steel plants to engage in technology research and development."

"Yes, Mr. Li. Steel companies are no better than Internet companies. They need a certain amount of time to settle!"

"Well, I understand. However, I also want to build a steel factory in Asia."

"Mr. Li, competition among Asian steel mills is more severe than that in the United States. Japanese, Korean, and Chinese steel mills are at odds with each other. If we continue to participate, we may become cannon fodder."

Li Zetian was about to say that he was afraid of wool because he had plenty of money, but when he thought about it, such an approach was really too expensive and would harm others and himself. It is better to proceed step by step. After the Nevada factory is established and Cronos Steel Company has accumulated enough advanced technology, it will be qualified to compete with Japanese, Korean and Chinese steel plants.

Li Zetian said: "Well, what you said makes sense. The steel industry is a brand new industry for me, and I have to take my time in everything!"

"Yes." Selina smiled and nodded. The big boss listened to her suggestion. Selina felt very happy, which showed that the boss was not a willful and arrogant person.

…

I don’t know who cuts out the thin leaves. The spring breeze in February is like scissors.

The leaves outside the villa have grown buds, full of vitality and full of spring. After lunch, Li Zetian took a walk outside for a while, and Dongfang Yuqin followed him. The two of them were walking and chatting.

"Now, Internet companies are still in a downturn. Even the market values ​​of Galaxy Network and Microsoft have fallen below US$200 billion. I think it's time to buy the bottom!" Dongfang Yuqin said.

"Well, we can't wait any longer, we should really buy the bottom immediately!" Li Zetian said, "Let people open multiple accounts to buy back shares in the stock market. In addition, on the surface, the selling will continue, causing panic among investors."

"You are so cunning!" Dongfang Yuqin laughed.

"I'm not trying to suppress the growth of the stock price... When we buy back the shares, the stock price will definitely increase. If you sell and buy every time, sell less and buy more, you can buy back most of the shares soon." Li Zetian took it for granted. said.

"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Have you had a checkup recently?" Li Zetian asked.

Dongfang Yuqin's expression darkened: "I did it, but I still didn't get pregnant."

Li Zetian hugged her and comforted her: "Don't worry, you can't rush this matter. You may not be able to get it one day. Let's work harder and have a special posture tonight!"

"Hmm~~" Dongfang Yuqin's cheeks turned red.

"Let's go back and have a rest. We'll go to Apple later. Apple has developed some good stuff. You must like it," Li Zetian said.

Dongfang Yuqin rolled her eyes at Li Zetian and said, "I'm your secretary. Don't I know more about Apple than you do? Has the iPod been developed?"

"Yes." Li Zetian smiled sarcastically.

"The iPod player is much better than the Walkman. Not only does the sound quality sound better, but it can also store more songs!" Dongfang Yuqin said with a smile, "Once this product is launched, it will definitely become popular all over the world!"

As early as the Asian financial crisis, Apple combined Walkman with MP3. Users could use Walkman to download MP3 music online. For a time, MP3-Walkman players became very popular and became popular around the world, thus once again leading the music fashion trend. . Subsequently, various MP3 players appeared on the market, causing sales of Apple's MP3-Walkman to decline.

When Jobs decided to innovate, he decided to develop the iPod without Li Zetian taking the initiative to remind him.

As we all know, early MP3 players generally used flash memory as the storage medium. However, due to the technology at that time, the storage space was very small. An MP3 player cannot store many songs, and users always delete songs from time to time. As a result, a company soon took this into consideration and developed hard drive MP3. However, it is a pity that while hard disk MP3 brings large-capacity storage space, it also brings problems such as poor portability and high power consumption.

Therefore, the early hard disk MP3 did not pose much threat to the traditional flash MP3.

However, Jobs saw business opportunities and decided to develop hard drive MP3 and named it iPod after the iMac.

Steve Jobs's pursuit of technology and product quality has always been too demanding and perfectionist, and the iPod is just such an exquisite work of art.

Li Zetian read the information that Steve Jobs said. The iPod's body design is very exquisite and compact. The thin and light body and perfect color matching make this product as exquisite as a work of art. Its body size is 8.9×4×7mm and its weight is less than 50g. The body color is available in black and white for users to choose from.

In addition, the iPod is equipped with a 1.5-inch 176×132 pixel TFT screen. The body material is made of plexiglass and body material. Its unique double-sided design fully demonstrates Apple's unique style. In terms of interface settings and control button placement, the iPod appears to be quite simple and practical. Even its control buttons are designed as touch keys, making it look high-end and classy.

In the afternoon, Li Zetian came to Apple with Dongfang Yuqin, Selena, and Vanessa. For Selena and Vanessa, they came to familiarize themselves with the business.

Jobs led everyone to his office.

Li Zetian said: "Jobs, I heard that the iPod has been successfully developed. Let's take a look at the sample first!"

Jobs was very excited and took out the iPod from the drawer. The iPod was a product that he personally participated in the design and development of. He was very proud and had a sense of accomplishment. Previously, all of Apple's flagship products were basically designed by Li Zetian, while Jobs was only a manager, not a development designer. However, Jobs didn't know that Li Zetian had already designed a very mature iPod, but he just didn't put it out.

Li Zetian thought to himself, I am already very awesome, and I no longer need an iPod to prove how awesome I am. On the contrary, in this life, you, Steve Jobs, are a bit mediocre. I feel sorry for you, so I gave you the iPod. However, I still have to give you the iPhone... At most, I can give you the iPad, and then you can be as awesome as Steve Jobs.
