My 1979

"Then you still let your children work?" Li He was not surprised that Fu Xia bought the pizza shop where Fu Yao worked. Fu Xia could do such a thing.

"How can I understand my own son's temperament? He looks honest and silent, but he is actually a donkey. If you tell him to go east, he will go west.

If I tell the truth, he will definitely turn around and leave. It's better to just let him do what he does here. At least he won't wander to other places, which saves me from worrying. "After Fu Xia finished speaking, she sighed unconsciously.

"When your child is older, you should show some respect. Don't always focus on yourself and hurt your child's self-esteem." Li He didn't understand his son's temperament, but he understood Fu Xia, "My child delivers food every day. It's so hard, so why don't you?" Feeling distressed?"

"Isn't that what you told me before? You have to starve your skin and deplete your body to grow flowers in the greenhouse." Fu Xia naturally blocked Li He's mouth with something to say, "You are not happy if I do this now." Already?"

"Hey, this really doesn't make sense to you." He had said this because he was worried that Fu Xia would spoil her children. In fact, it was just words. He couldn't be happy if it really made the children suffer.

"As for my son, you don't have to worry about it. It's just a rebellious mentality. I understand," Fu Xia said with a smile. "Getting into society early is considered exercise. Besides, it's not about hardship.

Thinking about it, I had to suffer a lot. He ate and drank, so there was nothing to worry about. "

Li He shook his head, explained a few words, hung up the phone, and said nothing more.

Wang Ziwen and Qiu Liang carefully sat back in the car without saying a word.

After staying in the United States for about ten days, the couple was preparing to go back. Li He's banquets came one after another. He Fang had no time to accompany him, so she returned home alone.

However, he does not attend all banquets. He never attends any dinner party. Li Laoer, a pair of flip-flops, travels from the Eastern Hemisphere to the Western Hemisphere. He is the most disrespectful of etiquette. When Westerners eat, they really eat, and there is nothing wrong with it. He was too lazy to wear a suit and tie and pretended to be chatting there.

At this moment, he was standing on a large yacht, holding a fishing rod in his hand and looking at the float without blinking.

"Mr. Li, as an old friend, I urgently need your help." Peng Andong, chairman of Kodak Group, stood behind Li He and spoke in a low voice for fear of startling the fish in the sea.

"Kodak's revenue has dropped by 20% for four consecutive quarters and it has suffered losses for four consecutive quarters." Li He sighed, "You have been too attached to profits in traditional fields for a long time, thus missing the best opportunity for transformation."

"Yes, our hesitation in the digital market led to us ultimately losing this huge market." Peng Andong did not mince words.

"Your most immediate crisis is whether you still have sufficient cash to support the company's transformation after years of annual losses and huge declines in performance in the last four quarters." Li He said with a smile, "KKR only invested 400 million For US dollars, we got 17% of the equity, which is really cheap.”

Since 1997, there has been no profit record except for one year in 2007. In 2009, Kodak announced that it would stop producing the 74-year-old Kodachrome brand film, and the film era became history.

Li He understood that Kodak was not far from death.

"Mr. Li, we have deep technical reserves and about 1,100 patents. As long as we have enough funds, we still have a chance." Peng Andong vowed, "Please believe me!"

"Digital technology has spread rapidly, and the production of digital cameras is fiercely competitive. Do you have the ability to compete with Japan Benzene Company for price?" Li He said very directly, "Even if we seize the opportunity of digitalization, we cannot rely solely on digital. Equipment survives. The market for film and digital cameras will eventually be wiped out by mobile phones and the mobile Internet."

Kodak is on the verge of bankruptcy not just because the company is stuck in its ways and refuses to change with the times.

In the past 10 years, Kodak has actually been trying to adapt to the changes of the times and launched some innovative products, but no one could have expected that mobile phones would develop so rapidly.

"How can a mobile phone be used for photography!" Peng Andong exclaimed, "Photography requires special tools, and mobile phones alone cannot meet the demand!"

"But for ordinary people, a mobile phone is enough." Li and Yangyang held Nokia mobile phones. "Didn't you see the reviews online? Although the picture quality is not good enough, it is surprising enough.

As technology advances, I believe it will be more interesting in the future. "

"You mean to let us get involved in the mobile phone camera module market?"

"No, this is just a suggestion." Li He sipped his tea and said with a smile, "Actually, you have many industries that you can do. You should use your technical advantages in optics, chemicals and materials to enter new fields as soon as possible. Instead of just focusing on the camera. Industrial X-ray applications, anti-counterfeiting marking systems, medical imaging, ultrasound solutions, oh, there are so many. Do you understand what I mean?”

"Mr. Li, thank you for your reminder. We have been working hard to develop the optical components industry, high-performance materials industry, printing system industry, document processing industry, medical life sciences and other industries, but we have not developed in depth." Peng Andong was stunned. Stunned, I still haven’t thought about it.

"Oh, not bad." Li He took advantage of the situation and pulled in a bream, "Nice job!"

The faint smell of sea breathed into his nose, making him feel refreshed and suddenly he felt much younger.

"So, Mr. Li."

"My friend, I understand what you mean." Li He waved his hand, indicating that he should stop talking, "I will introduce you to Mr. Bezos of Amazon. I think he will definitely have some suggestions for Kodak. He does the Internet Very good, we need some Internet thinking when we are engaged in industry, don’t we?”

"This is a good idea." Peng Andong shrugged and accepted it.

"My friend, I hope you understand that if it is an acquisition, it is a wholly-owned acquisition. You need to explain this to the board of directors. I don't want to cause unnecessary trouble." Li He smiled, and suddenly his hand sank, and the winding machine After the line was released, there was still a lot of pulling force, "We met a big guy."

Qiu Liang on the side made a quick decision and cut off the fishing line with the knife in his hand.

"There are always some fierce guys in the sea." Peng Andong has long been accustomed to them, even though he has no hobby of fishing.

"No more fun." Li He dropped the fishing rod, feeling a little disappointed.

As soon as the cruise ship arrived on the shore, Ivanov came up to him, pointed at a person behind him, and said a few words.

"I don't think you need an introduction, right?" Li He looked at the man behind Peng Andong and Ivanov.

"Hello, Jeff, long time no see." Peng Andong took the initiative to say hello.

"Mr. Antonio, nice to see you again." Bezos also extended his hand.

"I hope you had a pleasant chat." Li He got into the car without waiting for their response.
