Li Mu really wants to buy a suite.
On the one hand, I did n’t own a suite in Yanjing, on the other hand, I was considering the house price of Yanjing. It is always a good thing to buy early. It is still very easy to buy a suite with spare money.
Li Mu had this thought before, but buying a house is not just a need for himself, and he can't care about it when he is busy. However, for Zhao Kang, he has always had the idea of buying a house. After all, he is still in love with Wang Jia. Now, the two of them always come out to open the house with a gap of three to five. Although Zhao Kang does n’t feel distressed about the money for opening a house, but I also want to have a fixed little love nest in my heart. That feeling is completely different from opening a room in a hotel. Satisfaction is obviously much stronger.
When Li Mu saw him propose to buy a house, he decided to take advantage of the trend. Recently, he took the time to take a look at it. If there was a suitable one, he bought one.
Then Li Mu called Chen Ze again, and the car was brought back. The license plate problem had to be helped by him. It was n’t the one he had said before, but he and Zhao Kang had two cars and two license plates.
For Chen Ze, the two sets of A8 license plates are not difficult. A Li Mu called to explain the situation. He immediately gave a ticket to Li Mu and said, "I will arrange it later, Monday. Work at the management office and ask them to contact you for an appointment to sign up. "
Li Mu was relieved to hear, and thanked, Chen Ze said again: "Yes, I contacted a relatively high-end track design company in Italy. Their surveyors and mapping staff arrived in China next week. I plan to take them to show us Take a survey on the site above, choose a suitable address and come up with a mature design plan. When the design plan is introduced, we can prepare for the construction of the track first. "
Li Mu asked him: "Is the land okay?"
Chen Ze said: "I have greeted the city government for the whole plot. After choosing the address, the city government can grant land permits at any time. I have cleared up these processes."
Li Mu asked again: "If the site selection design of the track starts, we will start as soon as possible in accordance with the supporting facilities of our future CSC club. How are you communicating with Du Fei about this matter?"
Chen Ze said with a little excitement: "I and her have basically been determined. After relocating to the track, she resigned and returned to join the real estate company with Brother Liang."
As he said, Chen Ze said: "I promise her that our real estate company will develop large-scale commercial real estate within three years, and let her be the chief design. If it can't be realized, I'm afraid she will hate me."
Li Mu laughed and said: "Relax, operating large-scale commercial real estate for three years is not a big problem. If it goes well, it is not impossible within two years."
Chen Ze said: "I can't control that much now, just flick her back and talk about it, and I will ask you for the rest."
After chatting with Chen Ze, Li Mu waited until the evening, which is the morning of New York time, to make a special call to Du Fei.
I always wanted to find Du Fei, two things.
One, it ’s a matter of registering a company and I do n’t know what is going on now; the other is to ask her if she knows a reliable industrial designer or team.
When I think of Mark? Zuckerberg will launch Facemash in October this year, it is just the beginning of the entrepreneurial start. Li Mu feels that in the first half of the year, Facebook ’s main domain name and a series of related domain names must be In the bag of income, and it is best to put it directly under the name of a US company. In this case, whether it is a domain name transaction, or future communication with Mark? Zuckerberg, or even investing in Mark Zuckerberg, it will be much more convenient.
Another one, the Taobao network is already under development. Fang Xudong has not only been developing the core architecture, but will soon return to China. The Taobao network will be online soon, and then you have to customize the MP3 of the Easy Music network. Once created, the design has become an urgent task.
Du Fei told Li Mu on the phone that the company should have gone through the same process. At present, it only needs to wait for the final review. It can be resolved within a few working days. As for the industrial design, she heard about it. After the demand for Li Mu's, he said to Li Mu: "I find your luck is particularly good. No wonder people like you start a business, and your money runs into your pockets like legs!"
Li Mu asked in surprise: "Why do you say that?"
Du Fei said: "I happen to know a British chick. I graduated from the university Design College in Northumbria in the United States in 2000, and I am one of the design-level hall-level colleges. She is also a recognized wizard of the school. While traveling around the world and taking industrial design orders from some companies, she designed a mobile phone model for Ericsson before graduating. She also won an award in Sweden. She had worked with top 500 companies such as Siemens, HP, and IBM before graduating. I have cooperated, but I haven't said that, I still hold offers offered by several large international companies. "
Li Mu sighed: "So high-end? I just want to design an MP3, I do n’t know if people can see it?"
Du Fei said: "She is doing the industrial design of electronic products. Is n’t MP3 on fire now? Do you know that there is a Apple company in the United States that has a well-known MP3 player called iPod? "
Li Mu yelled: "Of course I know." But I said in my heart, in fact, I am going to copy the style of iPod-Nano4 by myself, I will tell you?
Du Fei also said: "She is a die-hard fan of iPod, so I think she should be very interested in designing MP3 players."
Li Mu asked her: "Do you have her contact information?"
Du Fei said: "She doesn't have a mobile phone abroad and only uses Email and MSN. She seems to be in a country around China. She told me on MSN some time ago that she is going to China in early May."
Li Mu is pleased: "That ’s great, it ’s best to meet and talk, but please help me ask when she will arrive at China. Please make sure to set her first stop at Yanjing For hospitality, you can talk about the business while visiting the great scenery of Yanjing. "
"Okay!" Du Fei said: "She is a kind of girl with a very cool personality, and she also has a lot of feelings. If you take good care of you, you may become a friend."
Li Mu simply said: "Do n’t you worry about me? If she comes to Yanjing, I will definitely let her feel at home."
Du Fei said: "Then I will leave a message on MSN to see if she can go to China in advance, then tell her about your situation, if she is interested, you will meet the rest Right. "
"Okay!"
After communicating with Du Fei, Li Mu couldn't help but think: If the other person is really a talented industrial designer as Du Fei said, then this person is really like sending charcoal to the snow.
For the present, electronic products have not yet entered the era of intelligence. The core of digital products is still in industrial design. Several major mobile phones before the arrival of smart phones, except for Nokia because of cost performance and ruggedness In addition to quality, the rest is basically due to its excellent industrial design.
Whether it ’s Samsung ’s slider phone and rotating camera, LG ’s chocolate that blushes when touched, or Motorola ’s Razr-V3, for example, it ’s a product that wins by design, especially V3, the world ’s most classic flip phone With excellent industrial design, it has achieved 130 million units of global sales. Li Mu still remembers the popular nickname of V3-Blade.
Li Mu wants to use MP3 player to promote the development of Easy Music network and Taobao network at the same time, then this MP3 must be as perfect as possible, especially in industrial design, if it can make consumers amazing, then their own The plan will surely achieve great success, so good industrial design talent is essential.
Furthermore, Li Mu also has a hardware dream in mind, and hardware is the biggest piece of cake in the future internet market. Any internet person with great ambitions will not give up the pursuit of hardware, but Li Mu never thought too early. Opening the dream of hardware manufacturing, he hopes to wait two years, and then cut into the hardware market when the smartphone is ready to rise. However, if the time really comes early, it is not necessarily a bad thing to get involved in hardware manufacturing in advance.
The reason why Apple is strong is that the software is only one aspect. The more powerful is the sales of hardware. Like Apple, Microsoft is very powerful in the field of software, but the former is inferior to the latter by countless orders of magnitude in terms of hardware. Yuan, thousands of yuan hardware products, the customer unit price is much higher than the software industry or internet virtual service industry, and once users have viscosity to the hardware, then this high customer unit price investment will also have a cyclical, a senior Apple fans, the investment in Apple products in at least three years exceeds 10,000 USD or more, and the profit margin is staggering.
Thinking of this, Li Mu takes the plan of customizing MP3 more seriously. If the choice of entry point is good this time, and it can come up with amazing products, it may be a good entry into the field of hardware. Opportunity, looking at the hardware market from the perspective of the future is actually not much more difficult than the software market. As long as the method is selected correctly, the hardware can also be launched with light assets. The most important point is never to produce any hardware yourself.
internet companies only need to do industrial design and software design for hardware, and then choose a reliable OEM (original equipment manufacturer) supplier manufacturer for production. As long as they have strict quality control on their own, the entire link of hardware production will be done. The rest is promotion and sales.
Electronic hardware manufacturers are still continually laying sales channels, from the head office to the region, to the provincial agents and then to the city agents. The establishment of this sales channel is quite difficult, and there are a large number of dealers who need to manage and Maintenance, not only increases the cost significantly, but also adds many uncontrollable factors, but for the current manufacturers, they have no other way, because the electronic Business is still just a baby in the baby, huge Manufacturers will not take it in their eyes at all, nor will they see how useful it will be.
Li Mu is now preparing for the launch of the Taobao network, that is to say, he is now building an online sales channel that abandons the traditional sales channel. Once this line is opened, if you make your own hardware, all aspects will be Like a fish. (To be continued.)
