Technological Hegemony

With the end of the second year of entrepreneurship, the signs that the world has been changed by Star Technology have become more and more obvious.

Luo Jia's speech at Fudan University was scheduled for the afternoon. However, early in the morning, Lu Tao, the chief financial officer, rushed into Luo Jia's office excitedly. Special edition list.

"Our company has entered the list of the world's top 500 companies, ranking forty-first!" Lu Tao said excitedly.

The reason why it is called the New Year's Special Edition is because the annual release time of the Global 500 is actually July 19th, which is the day before Luo Jia's birthday.

However, in the July list, Fortune Magazine did not include Star Technology, because it is a rare giant private company in the world, and its financial statements and all data are opaque.

This makes Fortune magazine very uncomfortable. It is very difficult to figure out what scale Star Technology has reached today, so that the investigation work is progressing slowly, failing to catch up with the release time of the list.

But as the world's most authoritative corporate ranking list, is it not a joke that Star Technology is not included?

Star Technology's products have already swept the world, and their partners are constantly conquering cities and lands all over the world. If such a company that is changing the world is not included in the top 500 list, Fortune Magazine will have a hard time sleeping and eating.

So, through continuous investigation, buying the financial personnel of the partners, etc., they finally got a general idea of ​​the current strength of Star Technology, so this new year's special edition list was announced.

At this time, An Ran also came to Luo Jia's office. Unlike Lu Tao, who was engaged in finance, as a scientist, An Ran had no concept of money. Anyway, it was enough for Luo Jia to give him enough scientific research funds, and his own salary and bonus, They are all handed over to the financial service center under the Ministry of Finance for management.

Luo Jia really broke his heart for the company's steel straight men. He not only had to build a house for them, help them find wives, but even help them manage their personal assets.

The financial service center is dedicated to this task. The unspent wages of the employees are handed over to the financial service center. The financial management experts hired by the company purchase various financial products to help everyone achieve financial value-added.

As for why the wages cannot be spent?

Firstly, because of the high salary, Luo Jia’s salary is not the best in the world, but it is definitely the first in the country, and after each project is completed, there will be an astonishing amount of bonuses.

Anyway, there are no poor people in Xingchen Technology. If you have more money, you will naturally need financial management. Therefore, a financial center came into being. Everyone directly throws the money they can't spend to the company, and the company manages it for you.

An Ran curled her lips and said disapprovingly, "It's only the forty-first place, it's very ordinary."

This sentence almost caused Lu Tao, who was in finance, to choke internally. An Ran's sensitivity to financial figures was almost like an idiot.

Luo Jia smiled, "You can't say that, after all, our sales have exceeded the 100 billion US dollar mark, and in this world, a company's annual sales can exceed 100 billion US dollars, which is a very remarkable figure."

"And you know,

We are a technology company. Among all technology companies in the world, only three are ahead of us, namely Samsung, Amazon, and Hon Hai. "

"The rest, Apple, IBM, Intel, Facebook, Google, have all been surpassed by us."

An Ran rubbed her chin, "It's kind of interesting what you said, but Samsung is really an unbeatable Xiaoqiang, they are still alive?"

Luo Jia nodded, "After all, the family is big and the business is big. Although Samsung has been knocked out of display, mobile phones and batteries by us, their semiconductor business is still the largest in the world, bigger than Intel. Our computers still use Samsung's flash memory and memory."

"This list came just in time, and it can be used as the material for my speech this afternoon."

An Ran and Lu Tao looked at each other and smiled. Although An Ran is also an existence with outstanding talent, there is always one thing about him that is far behind Luo Jia, and that is the overall situation.

Luo Jia likes to do industry research and analysis very much. His research on competitors and the global pattern is well known in the company. Whenever Star Technology wants to enter a new field, Luo Jia can always find the right place to start , and thoroughly study the opponent.

It was almost time. Luo Jia stood up and went to Fudan University to meet Shazhan. They had already made an appointment to have lunch together.

It is worth mentioning that Sha Zhan is no longer the dean of the School of Computer Science, but the principal of Fudan University.

 …

This new year is not destined to be peaceful.

The news that Luo Jia was going to give a public speech in Fudan had spread all over the world a month in advance, and everyone was eagerly looking forward to it.

As the leader of the toughest group in China's science and technology industry, Luo Jia has always kept a low profile and has never been interviewed. Although he has given speeches a few times before, they are all in private.

So when the news came that Luo Jia was going to give a speech at Fudan University, the whole world focused on it for a while, and everyone was waiting in front of the TV or opening the live broadcast website.

This is probably the so-called celebrity effect.

Everyone thinks that what successful people say makes sense, but if it is replaced by the unknown Luo Jia before, if someone is willing to listen to his lectures, that would be a strange thing.

The reason why Luo Jia was willing to go from behind the scenes to the front stage was because he had indeed promised Sha Zhan to give a speech in Fudan, and people could not believe what they said.

Secondly, it is also for publicity. For the expansion of Star Journal and the establishment of Star University, Luo Jia hopes to get the support of the whole country, preferably the people all over the world.

Don't wait until the Xingchen University is built. When it comes to sending their children to school, the parents will not be happy. Then Luo Jia's grand talent training plan will not be able to carry out.

Originally, Luo Jia's New Year's speech was already very popular, but in the early morning of December 31st, the release of Forbes Magazine's special New Year's list directly ignited the emotions of everyone in the world.

In this list, the technology giant Star Technology finally has a ranking. According to Forbes' estimated annual sales of 120 billion U.S. dollars, it ranks 41st on the list and officially becomes the world's 64th largest company. Part of the billion-dollar club.

At the same time, the net profit of Star Technology is also astonishingly high. Because Forbes magazine does not have specific data, they estimate that Star Technology's annual profit is between 20 billion and 30 billion US dollars.

This is definitely an astonishing figure. You must know that Wal-Mart Group, which ranks first in the world, has an annual profit of only 10 billion US dollars.

The world's largest energy giant, Huaxia Power Grid, has an annual profit of 10 billion US dollars.

The world's largest auto giant, Toyota, has an annual profit of 23 billion US dollars.

The world's largest financial and insurance giant, Berkshire Hathaway, has a profit of 5 billion US dollars.

The world's largest semiconductor giant, Samsung, has a profit of 37 billion US dollars.

The world's largest medical group, UnitedHealth North America, has a profit of US$11 billion.

It can be seen that Star Technology is already an absolute global giant, earning more money than Toyota every year.

Of course, the figures are only estimated by Fortune magazine, and compared with the real financial report of Star Technology, it is actually a little bit less.

For a while, the world was boiling, and all major forums and news websites focused on Star Technology and Luo Jia. Everyone had a lot more expectations for Luo Jia's public speech in the afternoon.

After all, Star Technology has only been established for two years, and Luo Jia himself is only twenty years old. Who knows what kind of ghost the world will be turned into by this miraculous company ten years from now.

As Luo Jia often said, everything has a price, and the price of becoming a celebrity is that Luo Jia now has to bring bodyguards when going out.

When going to Fudan University, Xu Chunbiao, Minister of Security, personally took the six brothers with them in three cars.

After arriving at Fudan University, I couldn't get in, because the gate was surrounded by the media, and the reporters set up long guns and short cannons, just waiting for Luo Jia.

So Luo Jia had no choice but to call Principal Sha Zhan, and drove the car in through the transportation channel reserved by the school for the cafeteria, sneaking around, feeling like a thief.

After finally meeting Principal Sha Zhan, Luo Jia sighed again and again. From then on, I am afraid that he will bid farewell to the life of ordinary people. Originally, he planned to invite Sha Zhan to lunch, but now this posture is better not to go out. Just buy the food and settle down.

Sha Zhan was also very excited. Luo Jia had appointed him to take charge of the coordinating work since the establishment of the Star Journal. Now that the Star Journal was officially expanding, he would inevitably have to be busy for a while.

But in order to break the academic hegemony of Europe and the United States, and for the smooth progress of the Star University project, Luo Jia and Sha Zhan must persevere no matter how difficult it is.

The two of them discussed the matter of the Star Journal in the office, and the time came to three o'clock in the afternoon, and Luo Jia went to the school auditorium under the escort of Xu Chunbiao.
