Silicon Valley

v2 Chapter 231: Palm handheld computer

Saipan Company immediately introduced four new shareholders in less than two weeks, each of which provided 2.5 million U.S. dollars, and raised a total of 10 million U.S. dollars, each holding 7.5% of the shares, and Henry’s shares were diluted to 15%.

Symbian has introduced four global mobile phone manufacturers in lightning speed, and even the mobile phone giant Motorola has joined them. This is enough to shock the industry!

At this time, many companies are considering whether to use Symbian system as their own mobile phone system! ! !

After obtaining funds at this time, the Saipan company began to recruit a large number of employees. Its recruitment slogan was: "Just do the best mobile phone system Saipan!!!"

Saipan company seems to put itself in the position of the best mobile phone system company!

With the support of Motorola, Nokia, Ericsson and Samsung, Saipan is indeed in full swing!

At this time Henry had already ignored the Saipan company, he only had to squeeze its remaining value, and then kick it away!

Henry has asked Silicon Valley Electronics Group to organize manpower and set up a mobile phone department! Henry has decided to give up the negotiation on Nokia's side. Even so, it is essential to dig people. Since Nokia refuses to sell the electronics department, then it will dig out the talents of the electronics department! ! !

For this reason, Henry specially ordered people to form a professional team engaged in digging people!

As a result, as soon as the negotiations with Nokia ended, the digging operation "∟Chang"∟Wind"∟文"∟ has begun!

Although Nokia's electronics department is making money, the entire group is dying. So, it is conceivable that the treatment of employees must be poor! Actually. Indeed, the person who was sent to investigate told Henry. Nokia suffered heavy losses, and the overall wage level of its employees fell by 10%. Even if the treatment in the electronics department is better. But compared with the first-class treatment in the industry, it is still far behind!

Wherever the money comes, the stone is open!

No one doesn't like money, the treatment of Nokia's electronics department is not high, and there must be a lot of resentment! Under the strong money to open the way, employees have changed jobs one after another, and there are even groups that jumped...

Nokia couldn't dig here, so it went to dig Ericsson and Motorola. Anyway, the outstanding talents of major manufacturers must be digging! ! !

Henry cashed out a lot of money from the Soviet Union, and now he has a lot of money!

Silicon Valley Electronics is more and more like Samsung Electronics. Everything can be produced by itself. Silicon Valley Electronics can produce all the accessories in the mobile phone by itself! Of course, some things are at the top level in the world, and some are very average!

Silicon Valley Electronics ranks first in the field of micro hard drives. In the field of lens, it is close to the world's advanced level, LCD screen, computer hard disk. The memory and power supply are also doing well, and they are very competitive in the low-end market!

Use Symbian system. It doesn't matter even if the hardware configuration is almost the same, anyway, it will move!

Design mobile phones. First of all, pay attention to the appearance design, which is the first impression left by people. Many people think that the appearance is beautiful, so they decide to buy this phone!

The second is the function, in addition to the regular call, other functions must be added!

For example, adding a camera, or a built-in game, or a music player, and then an audio-visual player...

A mobile phone is not just a mobile phone, it can be defined as more things, it can be a camera, it can be a game console, it can be MP3, MP4...

While Henry was busy building the mobile phone department, Jeff Hawkins, the founder of a company called the company, came to the door and wanted to cooperate with the Silicon Valley Electronics Group and also wanted to raise some funds. Henry didn't know the name of Jeff Hawkins, but he knew the company!

The company was established in January 1992, with the goal of successfully designing a lightweight, convenient and user-friendly pen-type portable computer Palm! It can be said that if Apple's Applon had not been designed earlier, then the world's first handheld computer is probably the Palm designed and produced by the company! ! !

Although Apple's Applon failed, the company's handheld computer Palm succeeded, and finally became the leader of the global handheld computer market! What's awesome is that Palm handheld computers use PalmOS. This system has always been the overlord of PDAs, and once occupied 90% of the PDA market! ! ! Although PalmOS is not specifically designed for mobile phones, PalmOS's excellence and support for mobile devices also make it an excellent mobile operating system! ! !

The Saipan system is very awesome, isn't it? The nostrils are all up to the sky, and they need to be cured! ! !

Henry didn't think of the company for a while, but when he was eating Chinese food today, Harrison accidentally mentioned the company, and Henry was shocked! ! !

Harrison was surprised to see Henry, and said in detail: "That's it, the founder of the company, Jeff Hawkins, wants to find our Silicon Valley Electronics Group to invest, and at the same time help them design and produce a product Palm, a kind of palm-based product. Little computer!"

Henry stabilized his mind and asked, "What did you answer?"

"I told him to want to go back!"

"Refused?!!!" Henry said in astonishment.

"Um, probably about the same," Harrison said embarrassedly, "but I didn't tell him clearly! Chairman, does this thing have investment potential? Why do I feel unreliable..."

Henry was speechless, and the good thing almost slipped out of his hands! ! !

"Of course it's a good thing," Henry glared at him, and said: "Handheld computer, easy to carry, and the future development trend, why is it not reliable?"

"..." Harrison was scolded by Henry, with a bitter face, he didn't know what to say. He felt that if he already had a laptop, it would be useless to make a smaller one. It was completely unnecessary.

Henry asked at this moment: "How did he react after you finished speaking?"

"Uh, a little disappointed!"

Henry rubbed his temples and said, "Well, you will contact him soon, let him come to our company tomorrow, and say that we promise to invest!!!"

"Well, okay, then I'll go now!" Harrison stood up immediately, so he should be more diligent in the so-called atonement!

Henry smiled slightly, "What's the hurry, finish the Chinese food first!"

"Oh!" Harrison immediately sat back.

...

"Mr. Harrison~lightnovelpub.net~ I heard that right?!!! Are you really willing to invest in us?!!!" An extremely excited voice came from the end of the phone.

"Yes, Mr. Jeff Hawkins, you heard it right, this is true! Please arrive at the Silicon Valley Electronics Group headquarters at 9 o'clock tomorrow!" Harrison said.

"Oh, God bless, I'm so lucky! Thank you, Mr. Harrison, I will arrive on time tomorrow!!!"

"Mr. Jeff Hawkins, you don't have to thank me, you should thank Mr. Henry Williams, he decided to invest in your company." Harrison said, "At the time, I just mentioned your company a little bit. Mr. Williams actually decided to invest in your company within a minute, which shocked me!!!"

"Oh, God, I can't believe what you said, he really decided to invest in the company within a minute?!" Jeff Hawkins asked in surprise.

"Yes, that's right, I remember it clearly, it was one minute!!!"
