Chapter 814
No company is willing to be only a technology authorized manufacturer. Eric talked with Roger · Will for an entire afternoon, basically determining the intention to acquire ARM. Next, Firefly only needs to convince ARM ’s major companies Shareholders transfer their equity.
The market value of ARM is about 80 million USD, and it does not show any amazing growth potential. As long as Eric offers a reasonable price, it is not difficult to buy this company.
The autumn weather of London is very short. The helicopter landed on a helipad in Songlin Film Studio. Eric got off the plane first, looked at the Carolyn carefully stepping on the pedal, and reached out with a smile: "Come on, I will hold you down."
Carolyn does n’t mind letting Eric hold on to himself, but the smile on his face and the tone of speech are like treating a child. The least favorite thing about Carolyn is that others treat her as a little girl. However, she is only one year younger than Eric, and this year is 25 years old.
"Don't, I can do it myself," so saying, Carolyn has jumped down and stumbled a little, but fortunately he was immediately supported by Eric beside him.
When Carolyn stands firm, Eric says: "Let's go to dinner together, the restaurant here is pretty good. I'll take you back later."
Carolyn was driven by myself during the day, but it was already dark at this time. Although Will Xun Manor was not far from here, Eric was not worried about Carolyn going back alone. This is already the suburb of London. It is a wild farmland, driving alone at night, it is definitely a very infiltrating thing.
Carolyn walked side by side with Eric and said, "Eric, I can just drive back by myself, and I promised that Mama would go home and have dinner together."
"Then eat consider as finished, let me take you home first," Eric said, looking at what the girl was about to say, and continued: "No rejection, I ca n’t rest assured that you are driving home now, and tomorrow I will Someone sent your car to Will Xun Manor. "
Carolyn bowed his head slightly and nodded softly, "Then, okay."
Going out of the apron, the driver has prepared the car, and Eric politely pulled the car door to let Carolyn get on the car, and then he got in.
Eric did n’t think much, but I thought it would be more polite to send Carolyn home in person, and it ’s not too far anyway. However, the Carolyn sitting next to the Eric was a little overwhelmed, and Xiaonaogua unconsciously started buzzing overclocking.
Eric is going to his home.
This, there seems to be something wrong.
Wait for how to entertain him.
What would Papa Mama think of this?
Eric casually chatted with Carolyn. When the girl was a little absent, she quieted down.
Drivers obviously drive faster than Carolyn.
After fifteen minutes, the car passed a stone bridge. Eric glanced at the street lights on the bridge deck. Outside the car window was a deep river about ten meters wide. Presumably this is the River Carolyn said.
Will Xun Manor is on the other side of the Thame River, across the stone bridge, and the car has stopped outside a manor in an instant.
Eric and Carolyn got out of the car together, and looked over them curiously, looking over the iron fence, and under the lights in the manor, you can see the wide and flat lawn and the castle in the distance.
Because of the long aristocratic history, there are countless castle buildings in the local United Kingdom, but because of the expensive maintenance and repair costs, most of them are even in a state of desolation. Even the Windsor Castle of the United Kingdom royal family needs national financial appropriation. In order to be able to maintain, the nobles who can maintain the castle manor left by their ancestors in this era are very deep.
Carolyn stood beside Eric, but she was obviously overwhelmed. She wanted to invite Eric to sit in, but she did n’t know if Eric would be willing, or her parents ’ideas. After all, she never told Papa Mama Things to visit after Eric.
At this time, the manor ’s doorman saw her own lady and a man get out of the car, and greeted him actively. After approaching, she recognized the appearance of Eric.
After seeing someone coming, Carolyn recovered, and took the initiative to introduce: "Eric, this is Mark."
Eric reached out politely and shook hands with each other, said: "Hello, I am Eric Williams."
"Hello, Mr. Williams," the guard guarded and shook hands with Eric, and looked at the next Carolyn: "Miss, do you need me to inform my lord and wife?"
"Ah, this ..." Carolyn looked at Eric.
"No more trouble, it's just a little late, I sent Carolyn back," Eric shook his head, said to Mark, and turned to Carolyn: "Then I will go back first and say hello to you Papa Mama for me."
"Uh," Carolyn nodded, not knowing whether it was lost or regretful.
The driver handed over the two bags, Eric remembered that this was the windbreaker and shoes that Carolyn changed during the day, and took it to Mark standing next to Carolyn, and then said to the girl: "Then, I will go first, goodbye . "
"Goodbye," Carolyn waved at Eric, watching the lights of the car go away, this time withdrawing his gaze, took his clothes from Mark and said, "Mark, I will do it myself."
Mark didn't even know what was happening now. It wasn't until Miss Lady walked into the manor with two bags alone that he responded and called the Earl and his wife.
The Countess Edith · Will Xun heard the doorman ’s notice and greeted her, watching her daughter wearing pink hooded jacket and flat boots, a little girl dressed up, completely different from the dress when she left during the day, her eyes dazzled, but It quickly returned to calm, took the bag with clothes and handed it to the maid behind him, took the daughter's hand and asked, without mentioning Eric, asked gently: "Baby, how are you doing today?"
"Well, Mama," Carolyn nodded and said, "Eric personally sent me back, but unfortunately he did not want to stay and be a guest."
Knowing the daughter Mo Ruomu, the countess looked at Carolyn's puzzled and lost expression, and said with a smile: "Mr. Williams is a gentleman, maybe he doesn't want to be too aggressive."
In this way, the countess sighed slightly in her heart. From earliest age to age, the count and the couple loved this little daughter the most. Even the three brothers of Carolyn took care of this little girl. They originally hoped that Carolyn, like many noble ladies, could find a husband who had the right family to live a peaceful and happy life.
Unfortunately, Carolyn graduated from Cambridge University a few years ago. Earl Mr. Zhang Luo made a blind date for his daughter. Carolyn, who has been obediently obedient since childhood, showed unexpectedly strong resistance and even made a fugitive. move.
The Carolyn accidentally met Eric Williams. The Earl couple also felt that if two people could walk together, it was also a good choice.
Subsequent developments are still not satisfactory.
Carolyn then boldly indicated to the couple that they did not want to continue their life in the past, so they went to Harvard University to study Business School, and finally worked for Eric Williams.
In recent years, with the increasing popularity of Eric, the Earl and his wife also learned more about the deeds of Eric. They realized that Eric and Carolyn have been difficult to come together, so this time Eric is far from Will In the pine forest Film Studio shoots "Casino Royale" not far from the manor, they did not send any invitations to each other.
Just ...
Looking at the daughter beside her with pity, the countess suddenly remembered many years ago.
Although everyone around me said Carolyn Her temperament is weak, but her daughter Mo Ruomu, Carolyn Some stubborn characters under the weak appearance are exactly the same as a woman many years ago, just worried Carolyn Will repeat the same mistakes of the past, the Earl and his wife have only let their daughter live according to their own ideas in recent years.
After all, I love and care for the sweetheart baby for many years. The couple have three fairly good sons, and they do n’t expect Carolyn to inherit their family business.
As long as the daughter can be happy.
Realizing that the expression of the mother beside her is a little fascinating, Carolyn asked: "Mama, what are you thinking?"
The countess shook her head: "It ’s nothing. Your father will wait for us to have dinner together. Go in."
......
After returning to Songlin Film Studio, after having a simple dinner, Eric came to the study in his residence.
In these days, in addition to shoots, he has been thinking about the layout of the future smartphone era. Today, the acquisition intention of ARM is determined, which means that he is about to take another important piece in his hands.
However, the future still has a long way to go.
The Nokia, Qualcomm and other companies invested by the Firefly investment company have been developing rapidly and prosperously in accordance with the established track of the management in these years.
Because it has absolute control of Nokia, Eric has absolute power to allow the mobile phone industry giant to develop according to its own ideas. The same is true for Qualcomm, which is holding a high percentage of shares, and Yahoo, which is in the rise. But if this is the case, Eric must invest a lot of energy to control these companies, which is obviously unlikely, because Firefly Group has already occupied most of the time and energy. If you are distracted to operate the Firefly investment industry, in addition to putting yourself in the future tired to death, Eric can't think of the second result, so he can only grasp a general direction in general, and specific and minor things are all handed over to the professional Manager people of these companies to take care of.
According to the current trend, Nokia will only follow the original world track. This development idea is very feasible between the rise of smart phones, but once the rise of smart phones, Nokia will inevitably decline.
After thinking these days, Eric has also roughly found another way to open up a new path.
In the study, connect to the Internet, Eric opens the YCR chat software on the desktop, Chris in New York and YahooCEOIan · Gnir in Boston, CTO Steve · Mitnick are already online.
A separate temporary chat room was created and several people were brought in. Eric briefed them on the results of meeting with Roger · Will today.
Following this, four people started to discuss the topics that have been going on these days.
The Eric's plan to find another way is mainly divided into three stages.
The plan is mainly themed by Yahoo Network Company and Firefly Electronics Company, with a time span of ten years.
With the assistance of Yahoo, Firefly Electronics will focus on the development and sales of three products in the next ten years.
In 1996 and 2000, Firefly's main focus will be on the promotion of MP3 players, and at the same time privately developed the Eric tablet PC discussed in the afternoon with Roger · Will.
A few people have named this tablet these days, called Yah00Pad.
In the plan, ARM, Yahoo and Firefly electronics themselves will be an important part of the Yah00Pad R & D system.
In the next four years, ARM will focus on the development of Yah00Pad application chips, Yahoo will be responsible for the development of the Yah00PaDC's system, and Firefly Electronics will be responsible for the overall R & D framework of this product.
Steve · Mitnick had the idea of developing a brand-new PC operating system as early as a few years ago, but at that time, the Windows operating system had risen, and it was impossible to break the Microsoft monopoly in the PC field, so Eric The idea of Steve · Mitnick was rejected.
However, now, his original ideas and ideas can be applied to the development of mobile operating systems. Eric has also provided many ideas to Steve · Mitnick based on previous life's impression of Android and Apple operating systems these days. This mobile operating system will carry Eric's ambitions in the field of mobile Internet. This time, Eric will certainly not appear in the field of mobile operating systems where previous life Android and Apple will share the world.
Four years of full research and development time. In 2000, the Yah00Pad was officially launched. At that time, the mobile communications market will also be completely transformed into civilians.
So, from 2000 to 2005, while MP3 players and Yah00Pad were promoted and sold, Firefly Electronics will also use the technical knowledge accumulated in previous years, with the help of Qualcomm and Nokia, to quickly specialize in smart phones At the same time, because of the investment in Sprint, the promotion of this mobile phone in the mobile communication market is not a problem.
Ten years, in 2005, Firefly Electronics will also completely open the era of smart phones.
