   Chapter 867 Swept

  "The second "Old Maozi Square" game!

The production cost of "Happy Xiao Xiaole", which cost less than one million US dollars, was launched for a week, and the volume was 7.5 million US dollars. Game professionals estimated that "Happy Xiao Xiaole" may set a new game record, and the mobile game Spring with casual games may come! "

   "Alcatel mobile phones have been online for a week, global sales have exceeded 7 million, P3 is out of stock across the board, and the price of P3 on the ebay platform has soared to $650!

   Earlier, Alcatel President Ertian once declared that P3 will never be out of stock! "

"Influenced by the hotline of games such as Alcatel mobile phones and "Happy Xiaoxiaole", the concept stocks of American consumer electronics, Internet, telecommunications, entertainment, games and other industries have been rising continuously in recent days. Some Wall Street analysts remind investors to pay attention to risks …”

Little Edgar Bronfman, who had bought a mansion in San Jose, woke up in the morning, served by servants and waiters, and had breakfast. As soon as he turned on the TV and opened the newspaper, he saw and heard about Al. Carter cell phone overwhelming coverage.

Although the media used a "ridiculous" tone to report that when Ertian faced the media before, he vowed to declare that the P3 production capacity is absolutely sufficient, and there will never be a scene when the P1 and P2 mobile phones were just launched and sold out. , and then the scenes of scalpers and agents hoarding goods to drive up aircraft prices.

   But the slap in the face came so quickly, Ertian, who was going to participate in the Saipan Global Developers Conference today, was blocked by reporters at the gate of the Alcatel mobile phone R&D base, and faced the media interview with embarrassment on his face.

Ertien bluntly said that he will do his best to increase production capacity to meet the needs of users for P3 mobile phones, but when will it be fully supplied, this time Ertien dare not pat his chest and brag about the sea, it is really popular for P3 Evil door, users are mad to grab it, and there are those scalpers who are bold and are not afraid of dying. They are really hoarding goods to the death. Ertien really doesn't know if those scalpers are really not afraid of death and dare to hoard so much. goods!

However, scalpers and P3 mobile phone agents, distributors, and channel dealers who secretly stocked up have won the bet again, and even many gangs have become scalpers. When the market is out of stock, a machine with a small price increase of twenty or thirty dollars, and more than seventy or eighty dollars, whether it is auctioned on ebay or sold at the door of major retail stores, can basically be sold. 's clean.

As long as you can get a few thousand machines, you can earn hundreds of thousands of dollars in one hand, and sell them to overseas markets that are out of stock outside America, sell them as parallel imports, and take certain routes without paying customs duties, etc. Can be doubled!

Selling this stuff is more risky than selling contraband, but it's much less risky, and the profit is not a lot. Many gangs in America have smelled it. This is not the first time. The earliest Xueleshan released a new game, just There are gangs that start tinkering, Hollywood stars release records, and there are those kinds of hit records, and gangs end up acting as scalpers.

Little Edgar Bronfman was upset when he listened to the news on TV. Even though the media was making fun of Eltien, he couldn't see it. This was touting the Alcatel P3 mobile phone. Tell the user bewilderingly that the P3 mobile phone is selling too hot, and these things will happen!

   Honestly, little Edgar didn't like the city of San Jose because of the "smell" of that Bruno Song guy everywhere.

  Although Song Yang does not often appear in front of the San Jose media, the media, TV stations, and news in San Jose never lack reports on Song Yang and the company in Song Yang’s hands.

Families and residents of San Jose, as well as people who graduated from the University of San Jose, have entered numerous companies such as ICQ, Alcatel Mobile, PayPal, Fortinet, etc. In the past three years, the company in Song Yang's hands has provided San Jose with at least 17 % or more of new jobs.

In addition, little Edgar also bought this mansion and learned that since Song Yang came to San Jose in the first year, he has been hoarding a lot of land and acquiring properties, whether it is residential land, manors, farms, etc. He refused. After a few years, the vacant land in San Jose was basically acquired by Song Yang.

Not only the land, but the local natural gas, water plants, power plants, food processing plants, the largest private hospital, etc. in San Jose have all been invested or acquired by Song Yang, and even the local security business in San Jose, including hotels, hospitals, communities, schools, etc. Wait, they were all contracted by Blackwater Security.

When he thought that the water, electricity, natural gas, and community security used in this mansion were all provided by Song Yang, little Edgar felt dismayed, that is, the TV programs and broadband network of this mansion were provided by ICQ. Yes, let little Edgar talk for consolation.

The reason why I bought this mansion is not because Edgard likes it more, but because of the management rights of ICQ. San Jose is the headquarters of ICQ. You have to come here, otherwise, how can you win over ICQ managers across hundreds of thousands of kilometers?

However, when I think of America Telecom, little Edgar can't help but feel a little nervous. Since the last ICQ board of directors' defeat, Irene has a bit of "ignoring the government" during this period of time, and she doesn't know much about ICQ's daily management. I don’t mean to ask, I’m on vacation now, and I recently heard that I’m very close to a small company called Google.

After Erin let go of ICQ's management rights, Edgar Bronfman Jr. got a large part of ICQ's management rights. Immelt also secretly supported him in his struggle for power. Edgar Jr. felt that it would be another year. In half a day, he might be able to get the management power of ICQ, or even faster!

But there are also things that make little Edgar's heart tremble. Song Yang and Irene's power in ICQ is on the verge of "rout", but as one of ICQ's biggest hills, America Telecom has never fallen to Xiao Ai. On Degas and Immelt's side, even if he promised heavier profits and promised Iger, the president of America Telecom, higher order, more salary, and dividends, but Iger remained unmoved.

Iger's attitude of being soft and hard made little Edgar's teeth itch with anger, but he was helpless. He and Immelt couldn't move Iger now, and everything had to be attributed to the thunder that Song Yang had planted back then. .

Little Edgar didn't know how many mines Song Yang had buried in ICQ, but according to the agreement signed after ICQ's merger with America Telecom, America Telecom is operated independently, whether it is management or finance, that is, holding ICQ. resources, America Telecom does not have to cooperate with ICQ, and even if Iger's term of office is not over, ICQ's board of directors cannot drive Iger away at will.

   Of course, in fact, there are still ways to move Iger, but the price is too high. If Iger is moved, his reputation will be rotten, and it will be difficult to recruit top professional managers in the future...

But generally speaking, the alliance formed by Edgar Jr. and Immelt is continuing to take over the management of ICQ, which allows Jr. Edgar to tolerate being in San Jose, where he is uncomfortable, and tolerate ICQ's bad things. !

   turned off the TV, little Edgar whispered a few words about the food in San Jose, and wanted to airlift his own chef team from Canada to serve him. He is now a hero of the Bronfman family.

The big sale of Alcatel mobile phones also made ICQ's share price soar. The stocks that Edgar bought for the Bronfman family, how long has it been, and now they have increased by more than four billion dollars, who dares to say Is he a prodigal? !

   Opening the newspaper, Little Edgar saw that the newspapers in San Jose and San Francisco were also touting the Alcatel mobile phone, and there was also a discussion on the game "Happy Match".

This caused little Edgar to react for a while, and he completely lost the idea of ​​watching it. Isn't it just a low-cost broken game, if the game of Xue Leshan is a big production, "Diablo", "Warcraft", "Half a game" "Fate" and so on, he might take a second look, but this small game for leisure and killing time really makes it difficult for little Edgar to understand why some people like to play it, or even play it.

He also tried it out, and he didn't feel anything special at all. Except that he saw ICQ's staff playing in the rest room, lunch break, and fishing time at work, which delayed work efficiency, he didn't see anything about this game. In particular, if it weren't for the fact that he couldn't turn against Song Yang now, he would have wanted to forbid ICQ staff to go to work and play "Happy Xiaoxiao Le".

   But whether Little Edgar likes it or not, "Happy Xiaoxiaole" is like the Tetris of the year, following the Alcatel P3 mobile phone all the way to conquer the city and start to sweep the world.
