Global monopoly of technology

Chapter 430 TED Annual Conference

Technology complex building.

In the afternoon, Luo Sheng had already woke up from a nap, and he was looking in the mirror and applying a layer of shaving cream on his beard.

Forgot to shave this morning.

"Xiao Na, how many cash reserves does Bluestar Technology have now?"

As soon as the voice fell, a loudspeaker built into the wall in the bathroom heard Xiaona's response: "71.98 billion US dollars, excluding exchange rate changes of 490.9 billion yuan."

Luo Sheng rinsed the razor with clean water and said by the way, "Well, use my account to draw up an internal email and send it to Lao Zhang. Bluestar Technology once again issued 28 billion US dollars of 3A corporate bonds to global financial institutions at an interest rate of 5.15. % Bar, 8 billion U.S. dollars for domestic subscription accounts and 20 billion U.S. dollars for international subscription accounts. The specific arrangements are left to Mr. Zhang's discretion."

Bluestar Technology Group is currently the most profitable company among all listed companies in the world. The net profit in the three quarters has reached 40.95 billion U.S. dollars, which is equivalent to the total net profit of Wal-Mart, the world's top 500. , Wal-Mart Group is a behemoth with an annual revenue of four to five hundred billion US dollars, but its annual net profit is only more than 10 billion US dollars.

It fully proves how exaggerated the high profits of global monopolistic high-tech companies are. Bluestar Technology does not meet the monopoly standard in name, but in fact it is already a monopoly-level super giant.

The operation of Luo Shengxue's toothpaste factory is free from the risk of spin-off.

The current situation of Bluestar Technology is to issue debts every two years or so. Even if it has more than 70 billion US dollars in cash reserves, it still borrows money. The purpose of issuing debts is definitely not because the company lacks money, but constantly with the outside world. Especially Wall Street's deep bundling of interests.

Xiaona: "Good master, what else can you add?"

Luo Sheng was about to shave, and suddenly stopped and added: "Send another internal email to Su Yali, and donate 2 billion US dollars to the'Luo Sheng Education Charity Fund' in my own name. Mu Mail asked her to let her out of money at once, um, that's it."

Luo Sheng began to shave after speaking.

Cortana: "Received."

2 billion U.S. dollars, or about 13.6 billion yuan, such a huge donation figure is unmatched at home and abroad, this is the heroic of the world's richest man.

For Luo Sheng, money is really a string of numbers. The stocks held by Bluestar Technology alone have made him worth an unprecedented $229.5 billion in nominal terms, or about 1.5 trillion yuan.

How to use the funds in hand to transform into more valuable things is the key point. The world's richest man must also be the world's best beneficiary, and it will also save time that Buffett and Bill Gates will come over @donations.

During the 2009 trip to the United States, Luo Sheng went to Bill Gates’s house as a guest. Buffett was also there. During the dinner, the stock god initiated a proposal, hoping that Luo Sheng, him and Bill would donate all of his worth and quote Carnegie’s Famous saying: It is a shame to die with a huge wealth.

Luo Sheng rolled his eyes frantically at that time. You are all seventy and eighty, and we are less than thirty.

In fact, that's not the case. They nominally said that they donated all their worth, but they actually transferred the money to a charity fund under their control. Not only did they continue to control the trend of wealth, they also avoided taxes.

In comparison, Luo Sheng is much more than these American giants.

Recently, Luo Sheng has further reduced the frequency and time of going to the company. In many cases, he uses internal emails to contact, make decisions, and notify him to make himself a little more relaxed. At the same time, it is also a further plan for the outgoing CEO.

Luo Sheng actually wants to step down now, but because he is too young and he has done so successfully, no matter what explanation is given, it will be over-interpreted by the outside world, which is really a last resort.

He can imagine that once he announces his resignation, Bluestar Technology’s stock will surely plummet, and the company will also fall into internal turmoil. Investors and Wall Street will not agree, and even the country will not agree, because this will cause some disturbance to the outside world. The necessary misunderstanding.

Even if he doesn’t do anything, the CEO’s name has to be hung there. Now it’s basically like that. Whether it’s Lao Zhang from Bluestar Technology or Lao Yao from the Blue Coast, he is not the CEO in name, but the actual rights are already Exceeding the normal executive vice president, this is the result of Luo Sheng's default.

...

At tea time, Luo Sheng sat comfortably on the sofa in the large living room. When he picked up the remote control to change channels, he switched to the news channel and saw [Syria: The situation is escalating?] Such news headlines could not help but stop.

[...Welcome back, let's continue to pay attention to the situation in Syria. Recently, because of dissatisfaction with the decision of the Arab League, tens of thousands of Syrian residents took to the streets and the embassies of Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and Turkey in Syria were attacked.Why did the Arab League suddenly terminate Syria's membership?Will Syria’s overreaction trigger an escalation?Let’s connect with reporters in front of us...]

Luo Sheng looked away from the TV news and said, "Xiao Na, has the international operations department of Luo Sheng Charity Fund launched in the Middle East?"

Xiaona: "It started three months ago."

Luo Sheng: "How many Chinese staff have gone there?"

Cortana: "Four people."

Luo Sheng said without hesitation: “Send another internal email to Su Yali and transfer these four people back to the mainland. Don’t rush to launch public welfare activities in the Middle East, especially in Syria. First hire local people to work temporarily. Set up an office in the region."

Xiaona: "Understood... the mail has been sent."

Luo Sheng stopped talking and continued to follow news reports.

The reporter Balabala inside was able to understand all kinds of speculations, but Luo Sheng watched it for a while and did not continue to pay attention. As far as the current situation is, there must be a fight here. Not surprisingly, a civil war will break out early next year.

It's right to flash people in advance. Don't just spend a donation in the local area and just build a charity school. A few shells will come in for nothing.

Let the bullets fly for a while and let them "line" for a while.

No one Luo Sheng paid too much attention to this matter, nor was it something he could stop, let alone this obligation.

...

The next day, Luo Sheng took a special car to Shanghai for the important annual convention.

The TED Annual Conference 2010 was held in Shanghai today. This is the first time to be held in China. It is undeniable that Luo Sheng, a big technology expert who has a huge influence in the global technology community, has appeared in China. Among the factors, what’s more important is that China’s comprehensive national strength is also rising rapidly.

The three letters "T, E, D" stand for technology, entertainment and design respectively, and the most well-known event is its annual TED conference.

The conference invites scientists, philosophers or thinking scholars from all over the world to share their most passionate things and opinions. It can be said that TED’s sharers are the shining stars, and these participants are the people who promote the progress of all mankind.

The TED annual conference was held this afternoon. After Luo Sheng arrived in Shencheng, he went to Xiongxin Electronics to check the situation.

Well, Qin Weimu also followed, especially when Luo Sheng was going to Xiongxin Electronics, and he was not allowed to be alone with Liu Yixuan, which made Luo Sheng dumbfounded.

The 45-nanometer process lithography equipment imported from ASML has already been delivered. In mid-October, the plant was completed. In another month, mid-to-late November, the production line will be fully completed. Can be put into production.

This is the speed of China. In less than a year, a foundry production line was built and put into production from scratch. This speed cannot be achieved except in other places in China.

...

In the afternoon, Luo Sheng left Xiongxin Electronics and took a rest in the hotel for more than half an hour before heading to the TED Annual Conference.

Mainstream media from all walks of life have gathered on the scene, and big coffees from all walks of life have also come in. Luo Sheng has become a focal point when he appeared, attracting a lot of shots, but his brilliance can't conceal the brilliance of other big coffees.

At this TED annual conference, Google founders Larry Page, Sergey Brin, Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, former world's richest man Bill Gates and other Silicon Valley technology giants also appeared.

At around 16:00, the TED Annual Conference officially began. Luo Sheng sat in the front row of the stage. The people next to him were all Silicon Valley tech giants. Among them, sitting next to him was Larry Page, two People met in this new way for the first time, and they exchanged in private.

Although the companies of the two sides are now in a lot of competition, it is completely impossible to see from the media that the two of them are as full of gunpowder as they are facing each other in a shopping mall. Instead, the conversation is quite relaxed and pleasant, at least on the surface. Such.

However, the TED conference became full of gunpowder as soon as it opened. In the opening speech, a reporter named Karawald criticized the "Silicon Valley Gods" by name, Larry Page, Sergey Brin, and Jeff Bay Zos and other Silicon Valley bigwigs called one by one, even Luo Sheng was not spared, and was criticized in the end.

"...The technologies you invented are very fascinating, but now they are crime scenes." Karawald, who is in the opening speech, said bluntly: "The Internet is fostering philistineism, split opinions, false behavior, and public opinion manipulation..."

At the same time, the big names in the global science and technology industry, including Luo Sheng and Page, are sitting in the audience, and Bluestar Technology and Google are both sponsors of TED.

What I have to say is that this reporter named Karawald is a bit sturdy.

But the big guys sitting in the audience were calmer than the others. Whether it was Luo Sheng, Larry Page, or bald Bezos, they were not only very calm but also smiling.

This amount of tolerance is not possible and it is impossible to achieve today's achievement.

Luo Sheng did not have any malicious intent against him. This reporter is obviously a perfectionist. It would be a different matter if he only named Bluestar Technology and Luo Sheng to criticize him, but in fact, he was taking the current global technology one by one. The big guys in the world "sprayed" it all over, still in front of the big guys. For this, the big guys actually admire the reporter.

But there is no use for eggs.
