Giant of the times

Star Wars is one of the most valuable IPs in the world. After the movie was released, the box office exceeded 770 million US dollars. Apple can earn at least 100 million US dollars. This is only the box office revenue of Star Wars, the real big number. It is peripheral products, including video tapes, toys, games, brand licensing of various products, etc. It can earn at least 300 to 400 million US dollars. Moreover, while Star Wars is popular all over the world, it will also promote Apple's Apple-ll personal computers and Walkman to the world, thus greatly expanding the company's popularity and establishing its brand image!

You know, this is the first Star Wars, and every subsequent sequel will bring huge profits and influence.

If US$9 million is used to develop technology, let alone saying that it may not be enough. The key is that there is no need to rush. Anyway, the technologies or products that were popular in the previous life have not been developed yet, and Li Zetian will be able to develop them sooner or later. Now that there is an opportunity to seize the cash cow of Star Wars, it is natural to seize the opportunity! In addition, from a businessman's perspective, if Apple-ll personal computers still have value, there is no need to upgrade them immediately.

The current economic downturn in the United States, and computers are expensive and difficult to popularize. If Apple only sells personal computers, the total operating income-cost-business tax, the net profit in a year will not reach 100 million US dollars, or even in the following years. This is the case! Only when hardware costs are reduced can personal computers become popular!

…

The next morning, the sky was dark and it was raining heavily!

On the way to work, Li Zetian saw a soaked little yellow dog lying on the roadside shivering. He looked very pitiful and was about to die of illness. Seeing this scene, Li Zetian suddenly felt soft and immediately stopped the car, then got out of the car and ran towards the little yellow dog.

This should be a stray dog ​​that was abandoned by its owner!

Li Zetian shook his head and sighed, squatted down, and immediately picked it up.

Don't be afraid, I will take you to see a doctor!

The little yellow dog was very good. He didn't bark or struggle. He seemed to know that Li Zetian was a good person.

Li Zetian picked it up in the car, put it on the passenger seat, and then drove to a nearby pet hospital. Twenty minutes later, Li Zetian finally found a pet hospital!

Immediately, he walked quickly into the hospital holding the little yellow dog.

The doctors and nurses at the pet hospital looked quite surprised. Apparently they recognized Li Zetian as a young billionaire.

Doctor, this dog is sick and needs treatment immediately! Li Zetian said loudly.

Okay, please give me the dog! A middle-aged woman in a white coat stepped forward, stretched out her hand, and said.

Li Zetian nodded and handed the little yellow dog to her.

This is a stray dog... the middle-aged female veterinarian said.

Maybe... I saw it was dying on the road, so I sent it here! Li Zetian replied.

Looking at the appearance, it should be a Shiba Inu, also called Shiba Inu. It is a medium-sized and oldest dog. It is mainly distributed in Japan, China, and the United States. The Chinese like to call this kind of dog a native dog, and it is mainly used for watching. Home. The middle-aged female veterinarian said as she picked up the instrument to examine the little yellow dog.

The young female nurse then gave Li Zetian a glass of water.

Li Zetian sat on the sofa, took a sip of water, and asked, Is this dog seriously ill?

It's nothing serious. I have a cold. A shot should be all right!

Well, that's good!

Mr.li, this is a homeless stray dog. Do you plan to adopt it?

Yes, should I adopt it?

Li Zetian couldn't help but look at the little yellow dog. In fact, it was very cute. It had a pair of pointed ears and a pair of cunning little eyes. The hair on its back was light yellow, and the hair on its chest and thighs. It is snow-white, with a well-proportioned body and strong limbs.

Yes, I plan to adopt it! Li Zetian said. He liked this Shiba Inu very much. He thought that since he could meet him on the road, it was fate. Moreover, he lived alone and had a pet to accompany him. Joie de vivre!

Because this is a stray dog, I suggest that it needs a comprehensive examination and vaccinations!

No problem, just do as you say! Li Zetian nodded and said.

The middle-aged female veterinarian nodded and took the little yellow dog for examination. At the same time, she notified Li Zetian to pick up the dog in three days and let the puppy recover here.

Li Zetian nodded in agreement and then left the pet hospital.

Due to a delay on the road, it was already 9:30 in the morning when Li Zetian arrived at Apple.

Mr.li, would you like to ask Li Meisheng to come over to see you?

Zhang Hao saw Li Zetian coming to the company and immediately stepped forward and asked.

Well, let's meet him! Let him go to my office!

OK.

Li Zetian's clothes were wet. After arriving at the office, he changed into gray casual clothes.

At this time, there were several knocks on the door. Immediately, Zhang Hao walked in with Li Meisheng, Mr. Li, this is Li Meisheng, the head of Apple's headphone department!

Hello Mrli!

Li Meisheng stepped forward and took the initiative to say hello, while looking at Li Zetian carefully. Due to the success of Apple, 18-year-old Li Zetian has become the pride of all Chinese Americans in the United States, almost as much as Wang An!

Take a seat. Li Zetian smiled and acted amiable, Are you very surprised that I asked you to be the head of the headphone department?

Yes, I am indeed very surprised! Li Meisheng nodded.

In fact, it's not difficult to understand, because I am also Chinese! At this time, Li Zetian's voice began to become deeper, The status of Chinese people in the United States is not high, and I want to change all this! So far, I still remember when I When I went to Harvard University to register on the first day, a senior asked me a question! He first asked me if I was from RB, and then asked if I was Korean... He asked me four or five times, but he didn't ask me. Are you Chinese? Are you Chinese! Maybe you can’t imagine how angry I was at that time. I secretly told myself that I must achieve something that attracts the attention of the whole world, and I must impress this senior student. When he sees it again When you see an unfamiliar Asian face, first ask if they are Chinese, not if they are RB!!!

After listening to Li Zetian's words, Li Meisheng was as excited as if he had been given a shot of blood. He has been in the United States for many years, and the status of Chinese people in the United States is indeed not good, and he feels the same way. At this moment, Li Zetian's inspirational story deeply inspired him and filled him with fighting spirit!

Mr.li, you are not fighting alone, you and I, Tian Shuai, Zhang Han, and thousands of Chinese compatriots! We are a whole!

Li Zetian nodded, patted his shoulder and said, Yes, I am not fighting alone! Li Meisheng, are you confident in developing Apple's headphone department into the world's top headphone company?

Li Meisheng was so full of fighting spirit that she responded loudly without even thinking about it: Have confidence!

Yeah! Go to work!

Li Meisheng responded and immediately left the office.

Li Zetian couldn't help but shake his head and smile. He originally wanted to encourage Li Meisheng to work hard for Apple, but as he spoke, he felt that he suddenly transformed into a speaker and national leader. However, that is indeed what Li Zetian wants in his heart...

PS: I’m embarrassed. I had something to do in the afternoon and couldn’t get back to code. I can only write two pieces tonight. The other one will be updated around 12. Please forgive me, please vote

I recommend a book: The King's Gate of Time Travel written by a guy from Beihai. I have more than 20,000 books in my collection (more than me, thank you~~~), so the quality is guaranteed.
