Top of the Great Era

Chapter 1343 Tax Collection
My younger sister is more mature than her peers, at least in terms of understanding the market more accurately.But this is not enough, Zhou Buqi thinks that he should bring her by his side as much as possible in the future to see the world.

It's really meaningless if she can't get into that school.

It's impossible to really become an actor, right?

Even if he is interested in this industry, he is expected to become the boss of Jieyu Media after graduation.

There is no fairness in this world, and her starting line is far ahead of her classmates.After graduation, her classmates might still beg everywhere for an acting role, and she might already be the vice president of Jieyu Media.

After wandering around for a whole morning, Zhou Nan had little interest, and wanted to quit after lunch, feeling that this kind of research work was so boring.

Zhou Buqi didn't allow it, and insisted on bringing her with him. The first company he went to in the afternoon was to make connectors.The whole process is naturally full of stars.

Although Aster has not been released in China, the domestic mobile phone industry has already caused a sensation.This kind of high-end mobile phone with a price of 500 US dollars has really opened up the market abroad.

In a few years, when the domestic 3G network is perfected, it is inevitable to return to the country at gunpoint.

Such a potential partner has long been targeted.

Then, he moved to a second company.

Zhou Buqi took his sister with him and sat in the same car with Shi Yuzhu.

Shi Yuzhu worked in hardware products in his early years, and even produced giant computers, so he has a better understanding of the manufacturing process. "The management of the supply chain must be done well."

Zhou Buqi smiled, "I know."

Shi Yuzhu said seriously: "I know you have done the milk tea business and grasped the supply chain. But this is different from the technology manufacturing industry. The milk tea supply chain is very simple to build. If any partner is not satisfied, just replace it. Yes, there are many choices. But if you want to make a mobile phone, you have a different way of thinking. There are barriers to competition in this industry, and it is not so easy to change suppliers."

Zhou Buqi said: "Yes, the danger of monopolizing the market."

Shi Yuzhu said: "Your idea is right. Start planning the supply chain market early and complete strategic financing, so that future constraints will be smaller. But you can't be too careless, you must distinguish them. Even if it is a strategic cooperation, you must maintain the market. Diversification and competitiveness. For the procurement of any spare parts, try to purchase from two or three different channels."

Where there is comparison, there is competition.

Only when there is competition can the price be lowered.

If there is only one monopoly supplier, then wait for the sky-high price to fully understand its own interests. A typical example is chips.Apple makes chips, but it is actually unwilling to hand over huge profits.Even Pratt & Whitney, praised by Jobs as the greatest company in Silicon Valley, is also marginalized because it does not have a chip business.

The chip is a knot that cannot be untied in a short time.

However, there are still many choices for suppliers of other spare parts, such as RAM, camera modules, camera lenses, camera motors, batteries, acoustic components, and so on.

Zhou Buqi took it seriously, and said with a smile: "Ziweixing is responsible for the Internet, and Astar is making mobile phones. These are two companies. The investment business is in Ziweixing, and Astar still has to use its own interests as its own. Lord. It is right to deploy more supply chain manufacturers. This is just the beginning.”

"What's next?"

"I'm going to Apple to find Jobs."

"what?"

Even Shi Yuzhu, who was at Shi Yuzhu's level, was stunned.

Among domestic entrepreneurs, the person who can meet world-class Silicon Valley bosses like Bill Gates and Jobs at will is this guy, right?
Asking himself, Shi Yuzhu felt that he couldn't do it.

Zhou Buqi said: "The development of the mobile phone industry chain is still a bit weak relying on our strength alone. You haven't made hardware for many years, and Astar is now purely assembled, with no technological content. If we want to help, the most we can do is Give me some money and some commercial direction. It really doesn’t do much for real technical and craft help.”

"So looking for apples?"

"I don't know if Apple's technical reserves are strong from computers, to Walkmans, to mobile phones now, but they definitely have rich experience. The supply chain of iPhones is now mainly provided by the United States, South Korea and Japan. How high are their costs? If the iPhone wants to increase profits, it must turn to China. They may not be able to provide high-end technologies, but they can still provide some advice and help in areas such as rear covers, touch screen modules, connectors, PCBs, batteries, and acoustic components. .”

In this regard, Zhou Buqi only knows some concepts, far inferior to Jobs.

For example, once when he was making a new product, he was dissatisfied with the color of the exterior and felt that it was not beautiful enough, but the supplier could not come up with a good solution.

There is no other way, but Mr. Qiao can only go into battle in person.

After thinking for a long time, I suddenly found that the jelly beans eaten by children are very attractive, and the color of the jelly beans is amazing!
What method is used to color the jelly beans?
Then, he went to the jelly bean factory to learn, then transformed and changed, connected with suppliers, and then made a world-stunning MacBook.

Such a product capability is not as good as Zhou Buqi knows it.If the domestic mobile phone supply chain wants to start, the help of Apple must be indispensable.However, this matter is more complicated and may not be feasible.

Zhou Nan found it hard to understand, "Brother, isn't the iPhone a competitor of Aster?"

"Correct."

"Then why do you still want to introduce apples?"

"Make the market bigger."

"don't know."

Zhou Nan shook his head again and again.

Zhou Buqi said: "The more Apple earns, the more Asda earns. To put it simply, it is to grasp the main contradiction and let go of the secondary contradiction. There is a contradiction between Aster and the iPhone, which is the secondary contradiction. The main contradiction is the contradiction between smartphones and traditional feature phones and multimedia phones. Do you understand me when I say that?”

Zhou Nan blinked his eyes, half understanding.

Zhou Buqi said: "Some time ago I went to the Hong Kong government to meet Li Jiacheng and ask him for some business experience. There is a very touching sentence. He said that manufacturing is hard work and can't make a lot of money. I want to make a lot of money. Big money depends on tax collection.”

"It's the state's responsibility to collect taxes. Can you do it?"

"I'm talking about tax-collecting businesses."

"Oh," Zhou Nan said happily, smiling, "I know, it's like they build office buildings, they only rent them out and don't sell them, and they collect fixed money every year, just like collecting taxes."

Zhou Buqi laughed, "Yes, that's about it."

How much money can you make by selling mobile phones?

Ziweixing is the first company in the world to deploy mobile Internet on a large scale. For Ziweixing, of course, the sooner this era comes, the better.

The existing social resistance is that there are too few smartphones.

The top priority is to quickly sell smartphones!

Whether it's iPhone, Aster, or Samsung, Blackberry, Nokia, the more you sell, the better. These big manufacturers will promote the arrival of the mobile Internet market.

With the hardware foundation, we can then have soft insurance, which is a series of tax-collecting businesses designed by Ziweixing, such as helping European teams build a transoceanic global official website, which can be obtained from each team every year. Fixed income of several million euros.

Zhou Nan said: "What about movies, is it also a manufacturing industry?"

Zhou Buqi said with a smile: "Basically, making a movie and letting the audience buy tickets to watch it is also a manufacturing model. But this is the domestic market. If it is the United States, the movie copyright can be leased to TV stations and streaming media. Or authorize merchants to develop derivative products, which is tax collection. You don’t have to do anything, just wait to collect money every year. This is the greatest value of the movie.”

Even Shi Yuzhu was deeply inspired, "Indeed, tax collection is the most profitable business. Whether it is real estate or games, including movies or football, no matter what kind of business it is, if you want to make a lot of money, you must find a way to collect the business. Tax-based direction, rather than simply production and retail."

Zhou Buqi said: "That's right, isn't there an Apple store for the iPhone, that's what it means. Either Jobs is amazing, Nokia, Motorola, including HP, Dell, Lenovo, IBM and other companies that have been developing computers for so many years. I hadn't thought about that direction."

"You can remind me"

"Remind who?"

"Lenovo."

"Let's find a chance."

Zhou Buqi laughed and avoided this.Isn't it asking for trouble for Lenovo to be a Lenovo store?At that time, users of Lenovo computers will go to the Lenovo store to download software, how will Micropoint Security Guard make money?This product mainly relies on the software download business to make money.

……

I thought I was tired after a busy day, but Zhou Nan volunteered to join his brother the next day and wanted to participate in the research work.

She is not tired, but Zhou Buqi is a little tired.

Not tired during the day, but tired at night.

Everyone lives together, it is very lively, the crowd gathers, everyone is their own, and there is also a sense of pride and satisfaction.But it was a bit troublesome at night, there were too many people, and it was too busy.

Adhering to the principle of the sage Confucius that there must be my teacher when three people walk together, they barely escaped the catastrophe.

But the younger sister is so self-motivated, the elder brother can't be vague.

"Nan Nan, do the classmates at school know your identity?"

"I probably don't know, I didn't say."

"No one guessed?"

"Where is it?" Zhou Nan was a little proud, "I am very low-key, okay? There is a girl next door, and the family is also rich. There is a private jet. After the National Day holiday is over, each of us sent a Hawaiian gift card. gift brought."

Zhou Buqi said: "Don't imitate her."

"I know, I didn't participate in the year-end awards of the school flower and school grass."

"On the school intranet?"

"correct."

"What year-end awards?"

"It's just that the top ten schools in the past year will be awarded a certification award, and an event will be held offline in the capital. Don't you know that it's the 5th of this month?"

Zhou Nan was very speechless to this brother. He didn't even know about his company's activities?
Zhou Buqi said: "How can I pay attention to such a small matter."

Zhou Nan blinked, "Then why don't you pay attention?"

"What am I paying attention to?"

"What about the school belle selected from across the country, don't you like it?"

"Your brother is not that kind of person!"
