Rebirth of the Wild Age

The APEC has finished its meeting, but Brunei’s major attractions have become lively.

Pensive dressed in traditional Brunei women's clothing, standing at the gate of Crystal Park, looking up to the front and said: "This crystal really weighs 4.5 tons?"

Song Weiyang raised his neck and said with a serious estimate: "This crystal is about 2 cubic meters. If the density of the crystal is twice that of water, it will weigh almost 4 tons." He turned his head and asked Shen Fuxing. , "Fuxing, you are a science student, remember what the crystal density is?"

Shen Fuxing corrected: "I am an engineering student!"

Yang Xin smiled and said: "It's all the same, science and engineering are not separated."

Shen Fuxing shook his head and said: "Who has nothing to remember the crystal density? It is probably true. The King of Brunei does not need to falsify the data, and he does not lack the ticket revenue of the park."

Brunei Crystal Park, also known as Zheludong Park, was officially opened in 1994, and it cost more than 1 billion US dollars to build it. It is said that when the king of Brunei was 48 years old, the princess gave him a 4.5-ton large crystal. The king was very happy and built the crystal park to share the happiness of the people of the whole country.

I have to say that this king is really rich, with a billion dollars in the early 1990s. At that time, China's foreign exchange reserves were less than 20 billion U.S. dollars, and people directly used 1 billion U.S. dollars to build gardens.

Don't say anything, this is the development of tourism, it is purely that the king is having fun with the people.

When the Crystal Park was built, Brunei paid no attention to the tourism industry. Even in 2000, Brunei's annual number of tourists was less than 100,000. This country does not even have a tourism management agency, and it will take a few more years to establish a tourism management committee.

On the contrary, due to the improvement of per capita living standards, Brunei farmers have abandoned their original floating villages and moved to live in new modern houses. This has led to the rapid development of the construction industry. The rich and powerful have become urban real estate developers, while many Brunei Chinese have become builders, and the township construction sector is almost monopolized by the Chinese.

After everyone walked into the park for a tour, Shen Fuxing suddenly said: "I talked to the entrepreneurs who came to the meeting this time. China Science and Technology doesn't even want to sell computers to Southeast Asia."

Song Weiyang was really not sure, and asked, "Why?"

Shen Fuxing smiled bitterly: “Because the electronic components of Singapore, Thailand, and the Philippines are more complete and cheaper than China, and countries such as Malaysia and inkpad, electronic components are one of their main export commodities. High-end computer brands, they are sure Choose American brands, mid-to-low-end computer brands, and they will choose Wanwan brands, and the assembly machines are unimaginably cheap."

"It seems that we have to wait for China to join the WTO." Song Weiyang sighed.

Before joining the WTO, China still had many restrictions on foreign investment in the electronics industry, so many multinational companies chose to build contract factories in Southeast Asia. After China joined the WTO, restrictions were loosened a little, and brands from all over the world came to China to invest and build factories. Relying on preferential policies, cheap manpower, and a vast market, China has rapidly developed into a world factory. Instead, it suppressed relevant industries in Southeast Asia and even sold back electronic products to Southeast Asia.

Shen Fuxing said confidently: "However, the countries in Southeast Asia should not be worried. Except for Singapore, other countries are all foundries. They have no independent research and development capabilities, nor can they launch their own local brands. Wait for China to develop. Sooner or later, we can kill the past. Now we should gain a firm foothold in China instead of rushing to expand overseas. Our previous considerations were a little unrealistic."

This can only show that China's overall industrial strength is not enough, otherwise it can bypass Lenovo's domestic hegemony and go directly to blossom abroad.

Just like "OnePlus Mobile", it can't compete with Huawei, Xiaomi and other brands in China, and they go directly to overseas development. As a result, few people in China know this brand, but it has a good reputation and sales in overseas markets. When OnePlus released new products, it carried out activities in more than ten cities around the world, including New York, Paris, Berlin, London, Bangalore, etc. The stores lined up hundreds of meters away, and they were looted as soon as they went on the market. People who didn’t know thought they were selling Apple phones. .

It can only be said that the BBK series are all excellent people, and the founder of OnePlus is the former vice president of OPPO.

"As for the coffee shop in front, I have an appointment with Mr. Du." Shen Fuxing suddenly pointed to the front and said.

Song Weiyang led the team into the cafe, and a Chinese man who was nearly half a century old stood up. He was slender, with a slender face, wearing a pair of rimless glasses, and in a gentle manner. He shook hands with Song Weiyang and said, "Boss Song, I have been admiring the name for a long time. I have always wanted to communicate with you in person."

"Where, Mr. Du is the predecessor, and we need more support for the younger generations." Song Weiyang said with a smile.

Du Jichuan, the founder of Kingston, was born in mainland China and grew up in Wanwan.

This gentleman has loved music since he was a child, and he created Wanwan's earliest student band in high school. He has a good level of guitar and drums. Because of my dreams about music, I skipped too many classes. After being persuaded by many high schools, I was still in the first year of high school. My parents are very troubled by this. They want to emulate Mengmu's third migration to the United States, but they cannot apply for a green card because they have not graduated from high school. It may be that his parents were too strict, and he actually took a small sampan to smuggle to Hong Kong City and obtained the Hong Kong City Resident Card as a mainland refugee.

His parents were almost blown up, but they had nothing to do. They had to send in living expenses and help him contact the school in Hong Kong City by the way. When Du Jichuan was in high school in Hong Kong, he was still playing music. His academic performance was so bad that he finally waited until he graduated from high school. His parents immediately sent him to Germany to study mechanical and electrical engineering.

Family financial resources are also limited. After arriving in Germany, Du Jichuan really realized the difficulties of life. He had to make a living by washing dishes in the restaurant opened by relatives, and finally began to study hard. After living in Germany for ten years, he chose to immigrate to the United States. Due to the difficulty of finding a job, he could only make ends meet in real estate sales.

Later, Du Jichuan met David Sun, and the two started a company together. They are all small and wealthy, thinking that $1 million is enough to spend, so when a big company came to buy, they agreed to sell it without much thought, and each of them got $3 million. At that time, the U.S. stock market was booming, and they invested all their money in the stock market. As a result, they encountered a major stock market crash in 1987, and they had no repayment of more than $1 million in debt.

The two difficult brothers dared not tell the truth to their families. They went out to work on time every day. In fact, they met in a coffee shop to chat and spend their days. They ransacked the cabinet and collected 2,000 US dollars, and once again founded a joint venture company, which was later known as Kingston.

"We have applied for a U disk patent long ago and can be found in the US Patent Office," said Shen Fuxing. "I hope Kingston can abide by business rules and stop U disk patent infringement."

Du Jichuan smiled and said: "Of course, Kingston is a law-abiding company. I came here to discuss solutions. Kingston does not need to make money by breaking the law, and I don't take money seriously. A letter from the company. I made an overseas phone call back to the United States last night. I already know what happened. It was a person in charge of Kingston who detained the letter."

"I believe that Mr. Du's reputation for distributing wealth has long been known around the world~www.wuxiamtl.com~ Song Weiyang said with a smile.

Four years ago, Sun Zhengyi acquired 80% of Kingston's shares, and Du Jichuan directly allocated 100 million US dollars to employees. This move made Kingston famous and became a company that countless young Americans yearned for, and its product sales also increased wildly.

Since Sun Zhengyi's assets have shrunk due to the Internet bubble this year, he can only sell companies everywhere to raise money. Kingston took the opportunity to buy back all the shares.

Du Jichuan said: "U.S. patent licensing fees are usually charged at 0.5%, and some core technology patents can reach more than 1%. U disk patents are not complicated. I hope to deal with it according to normal market conditions. Kingston is willing to pay for U disk at a rate of 0.5%. Patent royalties."

Shen Fuxing smiled and said, "We only need 0.3%."

Du Jichuan was quite surprised: "There are still companies that make too little money? Come on, what are the additional conditions?"

Shen Fuxing said: "We hope that Kingston can join the U Disk Patent Alliance and sue those infringing companies together, such as the second-selling U.S. U.S. Bionway! This is also beneficial to Kingston. If Bionway continues to infringe, then The cost of its USB flash drive is lower and it is more competitive than Kingston's USB flash drive."

Du Jichuan blinked, and after a little thought, he said, "Yes, you can't let Bianwei take advantage of it. However, the cost of the lawsuit needs to be paid by China Technology. Kingston only provides assistance when necessary, and always stands morally. China Technology is here."

Song Weiyang said: "No problem. Kingston, the top seller of U.S. USB flash drives, stepped up to speak. It will definitely influence the judge's decision, and the speed of litigation is much faster."

After reaching a patent licensing agreement with Kingston, Shen Fuxing immediately called back to China, preparing to sue Bienwei, and at the same time preparing to sue domestic infringing brands, and also contacted the media to promote it.
