The wealthiest individuals in the United States are unlikely to be real estate agents; they often don't even make it into the top 50 of the wealth list. In contrast, in countries like Xiangjiang and Tianchao, a significant portion of the top 50 are involved in real estate-related industries.
Regarding Erma Yidong's wealth, while it's true that he is wealthy, his success story is unique, and replicating such success is challenging. Antitrust claims and similar circumstances can't easily be mirrored elsewhere.
The distinction between real estate as a pillar industry in developing countries and its less emphasized role in developed countries is indeed puzzling. It's unclear whether this is due to economic development reaching a point where housing is no longer considered a necessity.
Now, shifting gears...
Apple is facing increasing competition, with Wang An Computer announcing plans for the next generation of personal computers. This has left other companies struggling to catch up, and their plans are lagging behind.
Have you considered placing orders with Motorola?
Unfortunately, that's impossible before the end of the year. The production line for the foot basin is still being set up, and specific details are yet to be determined.
Upon receiving this news, personal PC factories are in chaos. Many doubt the capacity problem, seeing it as a tactic to increase prices.
No business with Motorola?
Both Motorola and Ricoh find this puzzling but have no choice. William White is the current CEO, and there's an agreement among everyone that they can't question it as long as the company isn't suffering significant losses.
William White, on the other hand, is unfazed. His video games are intensifying research and development, and he can absorb most of these CPUs.
Is the second manufacturer also Ricoh?
Could they be more shameless?
The so-called second producer is only responsible for government procurement. They won't sell to others, no matter how much they request.
Is this a monopoly?
Intel and Texas Instruments are larger, and there are chip factories in Europe. A monopoly is unlikely.
Can I produce without authorization?
No, that won't work. You don't have enough money to make a profit, and imitating Intel's factory is not an option.
When you can't beat them, switch to an engineering chipset. It's a good business move. The quantity matters, and when your cost is low enough, you can strangle competitors.
Antitrust? Anti-dumping?
These issues are not a concern. The added value is low, and it's not something the old and beautiful would venture into. They prefer cheaper options.
Motorola claims they're working hard, the factory is running day and night, and the capacity problem will be alleviated in the second half of next year. They hope for understanding given the surge in orders.
Motorola's position is escalating the situation. Their daylily has gone cold for a year. A million tablets ordered?
Who placed this order?
Apple and Wang'an computers don't have this capacity. What's happening?
This is clearly unfair competition. The U.S. government is likely orchestrating things to help arrange production plans.
If you're a shareholder of Motorola, you can't enter Intel's board of directors, reducing competition levels.
You can't monopolize or prevent competitors from buying upstream spare parts. It's unfair competition.
The old and beautiful management style seems peculiar, doesn't it? Have you encountered anything like it before?
Yes, it's akin to the Xiangjiang Jockey Club. They run with horses of similar levels, adjusting the weight if a horse runs too fast. If that doesn't work, the horse needs to be upgraded.
The old and beautiful government uses a similar approach. If your strength is too strong, they weaken it. If it's too weak, they ask you to split.
The same approach won't work on Motorola. When questioned by the Fair Trade Commission, Motorola quickly responded, giving the order to Ricoh. The two only have a cooperative relationship.
Is this level of shamelessness necessary?
Both factories are working together, but now they claim it doesn't matter.
Well, it really doesn't matter. You can investigate the foot basin. We're genuinely short of capacity and have worked diligently. Don't delay our time; it affects production.
The Fair Trade Commission isn't playing games. They are well-prepared, and this pit was dug long ago. It depends on when you jump in.
At this point, things really can't be played.
Another crystal ashtray is broken. Steve Ross has been unlucky since facing William White. He's been repeatedly outplayed, making him question his life.
Atari is out of the game. It's certain. As for developing a new CPU, it's impossible. The original chip geniuses have long fled from William White.
Restart the stove?
It's not that easy.
The old guy now regrets it. There was no need to oppose William White. Paramount was a safe bet. Why go against the trend?
Acquiring Atari cost hundreds of millions, and another 100 million for R&D on the 2600. Now, Atari is about to face significant challenges.
The movie is even worse. The box office is about to break 100 million, while they're stuck at the 1,000 threshold. Sniping at White Films is becoming a joke.
It's frustrating to witness the struggles of those old players. And the board of directors is pressuring him to compromise.
Why should tigers care about the feelings of monkeys?
Unfortunately, Warner, the big tiger, seems toothless. It's a rhythm of being alive and depressed!
