The piracy incident has come to an end.
Unsurprisingly, after this incident, Yan Guo's merchant ships and cargo ships will no longer be attacked by pirates, no matter where they are.
The Strait of Malacca is just one of Yan Guo's sea routes, and there are also pirates in other places.
But as long as these pirates do not want to die, they will never dare to get involved with Yan Guo.
Peace is achieved through struggle, and it is useless to rely on prayer and compromise.
Yan Guo's cargo ship was hijacked by pirates for the first time and demanded 2 million US dollars.
Then came the second time, demanding $3 million.
If Chen Yang let it go, more and more pirates would come to rob him.
Not only would a ransom be paid, but he would also be ridiculed internationally.
Therefore, Chen Yang did not hesitate to send troops to kill these pirates.
He just wants to let pirates all over the world see that if you dare to steal Yan Guo's ship, you will be waiting for the wrath of Yan Guo's navy, waiting to be captured by Yan Guo, and waiting to die!
There is no second outcome.
At this moment.
Pirates from the Gulf of Aden, Somalia, and the West African coast have also seen these international news stories one after another.
"Subvert the regime…"
"Over eight thousand pirates…"
Looking at the key words in the news, the corners of these pirates' mouths twitched crazily.
Is this Yan Guo country going crazy?
"If you encounter a Yan Guo cargo ship in the future, remember to make a detour."
All the pirates gave this order.
Yan Guo's cargo ships must not be touched.
Although this country was founded not long ago, it really cannot be messed with.
If you dare to provoke it, we will send troops to kill you in a minute.
At this time, Chen Yang also arrived at the Yan City Ministry of Commerce Office.
After solving the pirate problem, he can continue to invest in the construction of Yan City.
The ones who are most anxious now are the mobile phone and automobile companies.
He wants to capture the mid- and low-end mobile phone market, although this may cause dissatisfaction in many countries.
But he will not care too much about this.
As the king of Yan Guo, his priority is naturally the economy of Yan Guo.
He opened the system mall, found the mobile phone category, and took a look.
Soon, he found the mobile phone he needed.
Xiaomi mobile phone!
According to the introduction of the system, Xiaomi mobile phones have achieved great success in the shadow world. In just eight years since its establishment, it has become one of the top 500 companies in the world.
Unlike other mobile phone manufacturers that focus on the mid-range and high-end market, Xiaomi mobile phones have followed the popular route from the beginning, and their prices are extremely affordable.
Not to mention the affordable price, the configuration of the mobile phone is also unbeatable among phones in the same price range.
In addition, Xiaomi mobile phones have not ignored the appearance design for the sake of low prices.
On the contrary, from appearance to configuration, it is the best in this price range.
After confirming the product, Chen Yang left the office and went to a nearby office building.
He entered the office building and purchased the corresponding assistant robot.
Preparations began immediately.
From the company name to the company philosophy, everything is ready.
Xiaomi company is officially established!
After leaving the company, Chen Yang drove to Yang City.
This is one of the last cities to be built. In his plan, this city is used for the development of automakers. In the future, it will become the largest automobile city in Yan Guo and provide hundreds of thousands of jobs for people across the country.
The city's infrastructure is complete and the construction of ground-floor buildings is underway.
He arrived outside one of the construction sites that was under construction. After this construction site was completed, it would be the assembly plant building.
Cars are much like cell phones. They are also divided into low-end cars, mid-range cars, and high-end luxury cars.
Low-end cars are undoubtedly the largest market, while luxury cars require time and a lot of money to promote. It is necessary to instill the concept of luxury in people's minds.
This does not happen overnight. Even if Chen Yang has the corresponding technology, it is impossible to complete the transformation of luxury cars in a very short period of time.
But there is still a way to go.
Cars priced below $13,000 should be built, as well as cars priced between $13,000 and $27,000. Luxury cars priced above a million should also be built.
He has a long-term vision and is prepared to not make money or even lose money in the short term.
He plans to build an automaker headquarters in this city, as well as a corresponding R&D department and production plant.
Cars are different from mobile phones. For mobile phone assembly, OEMs can be found all over the world.
But cars cannot.
The R&D and manufacturing of parts must be completed locally in Yan Guo.
We can build factories in other countries in the future, but not now.
At least, we have to wait for automakers to occupy the corresponding market share.
Otherwise, if you go to other countries to open factories before the market launch in the early stage, it will easily cause technology leakage.
For Chen Yang, the biggest disadvantage of opening a factory in his own country is the slowness.
The factory needs to be built, and for such a large factory, he looked at the construction period and found that it would take about three months.
Therefore, the establishment of a company at the initial stage can only remain at the technical stage on paper.
But that is enough.
In any case, the technologies are ready and mature.
Being created three months in advance also served as a preparation process.
After returning from Yang City, Chen Yang was in the office and opened the car category in the system shopping mall.
His goal was to cover all cars in all price ranges, but in doing so, he discovered that it was not that simple.
If you want to build luxury cars, it is best to create an independent brand and start with high-end luxury cars.
There are several types of luxury cars, including supercars that cost tens of millions, luxury executive cars that cost tens of millions, and luxury cars that cost more than 1 million for ordinary people who work hard.
Luxury executive cars and supercars are two different types, and each should establish independent brands.
After much thought, Chen Yang decided to create two brands first.
One brand makes cars priced between 13,000 and 68,000.
Another brand makes cars priced between 68,000 and 275,000.
He opened the system shopping mall and quickly found the car brand he needed.
[Mercedes-Benz]: The benchmark of luxury cars in the parallel world, known as the inventor of the automobile.
The world's first four-wheeled car was invented by the founder of Mercedes-Benz.
It is a representative of high-quality and high-performance automotive products.
In addition to high-end luxury cars, Mercedes-Benz is also the world's most famous manufacturer of buses and heavy trucks...
Chen Yang took a look and found that this brand ranges from A-Class cars priced at over $27,000 to luxury cars worth millions.
Whether it's an executive sedan or a sports car, they have everything you need, and the product lineup is quite complete.
In addition, Mercedes-Benz is the first to produce million-dollar luxury cars, and then there are cars priced at $41,000 to $55,000, which are built from the ground up.
This is different from many Blue Star automakers.
Most of the Blue Star automakers first produce cars worth tens or two hundred thousand dollars, and then slowly launch more expensive cars.
However, this way is obviously not suitable for becoming a market benchmark.
He read the introduction of this brand. Mercedes and Benz were the names of the two founders respectively.
If he used it directly, it would be very strange.
Someone might ask what Mercedes is.
Therefore, Chen Yang decided to directly name it Meihua.
After choosing a luxury brand, Chen Yang continued to search for a family car brand.
He soon found it.
[Toyota]: The world's best-selling car manufacturer in the parallel world. Its high-quality products and efficient production processes are recognized by consumers all over the world. It has a wide range of models and rich product lines.
The largest sales volume in the world!
Chen Yang's eyes lit up. This point alone made Chen Yang sure that this was it!
After the confirmation, Chen Yang immediately went out, found two commercial buildings, founded two car companies, Meihua and Toyota respectively, and then started purchasing robots.
Before the construction of the car assembly plant project in Yang City is completed, these two companies do not need to do anything for the time being, and they only exist for registration.
Time flew by and the next day arrived.
At noon, Chen Yang started the live broadcast.
"What will the boss say today?"
"Will these pirates go to trial?"
"There is nothing good in the trial. Didn't we already say that according to Yan Guo's laws, they will be imprisoned for life?"
"We still have to follow the process that needs to be done."
Chen Yang said, "Good afternoon everyone, just today, Yan Guo has established three more state-owned enterprises."
"I started a company again?"
"Is the boss going to develop the industry again?"
"What company is it this time?"
"Three companies at once, that's amazing."
Chen Yang said, "These three companies are a mobile phone manufacturer and two car manufacturers."
"Oh? Mobile phone? Did I hear that right?"
"Isn't there already a mobile phone company?"
"Amazing, he actually started building cars."
"Cars are not easy to build, and car brands need to spend money on advertising, which is not a small amount.
"It's very difficult to sell a car. Just talk about those car bloggers with those dogecoins. If you don't invest, you can describe luxury cars as junk."
"Big brother, hurry up and build a car. I will definitely support you!"
"Words of support are also support, right?"
Chen Yang said, "In addition, corresponding job openings have been opened one after another. Interested parties can go to Yan Guo's official website to check it out."
"That's all for today's live broadcast. See you later, everyone."
After finishing the live broadcast, Chen Yang told Pear how to operate Xiaomi mobile phones.
He is very busy now.
It has been a month since Pear released its first mobile phone.
The second product is also about to be released, and the product launch conference was originally scheduled for next week.
The final product has been made, and now he wants to take a look at the final product.
After checking that there are no problems, mass production can begin.
When he arrived at Pear, Chen Yang went to the product research and development department.
Executive Tian Fen held a finished device and handed it over.
Chen Yang took it in his hand.
This is a tablet.
Chen Yang had never seen it before, because Blue Star has no concept of tablets.
So Chen Yang hesitated a little when he decided to use this as the company's second product.
But when he thought about the sales of this product in the parallel world, he decided to give it a try.
After all, before the launch of this product in the parallel world, there was no concept of tablet in the market.
At this time, Chen Yang started to use the product. After some operation, Chen Yang nodded with satisfaction.
It is exactly the same as the sample purchased in the system, there is no difference.
Tablets are somewhere between smartphones and laptops.
This product can be used for light office work and entertainment.
Compared with mobile phones, it has a larger screen, stylish appearance, smooth operating system, and very comfortable operation.
Compared with a laptop, it is lighter, more convenient to carry, and can also be used for light office work.
Chen Yang saw the design concept of this product, and Tian Fen agreed with him.
"Let's have a meeting."
Chen Yang said, then walked to the conference room.
After a while, relevant executives and some technical members came to the conference room.
They had already gotten their hands on the finished device.
After the cost of this product came out, their senses were amazed.
If the iPhone redefines mobile phones, this product is the one that came out of nowhere.
It is an innovative product that created a new category of devices
However, they don't have much confidence in the market for this product.
After all, there are no similar products on the market, so it is difficult for them to make corresponding judgments.
After everyone arrived, Chen Yang held the tablet in his hand and said, "This product is between a smartphone and a laptop. I define it as a tablet. And its name is iPad!"
"iPad..."
The technical members were discussing the name, and the tablet Chen Yang mentioned was quite consistent with their understanding of this product.
But then again, this kind of product is not currently available on the market.
Unlike the previous iPhone, smartphones have long been integrated into everyone's lives and have become indispensable.
However, tablets that have never existed on the market make them a little unsure about the marketing of this product.
From their perspective, the positioning of the iPad is very similar to that of laptops.
However, it does not have as many functions as a laptop, and the office experience is not particularly good, so it takes time to get used to it.
This product is more focused on entertainment.
After a brief introduction, Chen Yang said, "The iPad will be released in a week. Before its release, no one is allowed to disclose any relevant information about the iPad."
Before the product is released, it must not be leaked to the outside world. This is also the rule of all technology companies.
Then, Chen Yang asked about the main suppliers of parts.
Ever since Pear's first mobile phone was released, suppliers have been asking for help, hoping to use their screens and batteries.
Pear's shipments are also at an all-time low in terms of accessories.
After the meeting, Chen Yang walked out of the conference room, but was blocked by a middle-aged white man.
"Mr. Chen, I have something to report to you."
Chen Yang looked at the white man in front of him and was not at all impressed, so he turned his head and looked at the company's executives.
The senior manager said, "He is Alex, who changed jobs from Apple Inc."
Chen Yang said, "Ah, it was that person."
As he walked toward the office, he asked, "What's the matter?"
Alex seemed to be taking credit and said, "Mr. Chen, I have contacted a company in the United States. I think we can acquire this company and expand the company's business scope."
Chen Yang glanced at him, walked into the office, sat down and asked, "Which company?"
Alex said, "A company located in Phoenix, USA, whose main business is basic telecommunications equipment."
Telecommunications equipment...
Suddenly, Chen Yang thought that it would be more difficult for a company to find him to order related equipment.
Without waiting for Chen Yang to ask, Alex said, "Some time ago, a company there contacted us. They wanted to order a batch of telecommunications equipment from our company. But our company had no related business, so I checked, and there happened to be a company in the United States with relevant qualifications. I think the company could acquire it."
"All the production lines of this company are ready, and it has hundreds of patents. If it can be acquired, it can make a profit in the next two years."
Chen Yang looked at him and asked, "Since there is such a market, why doesn't this company turn its losses into profits on its own?"
Alex shook his head and said, "Mr. Chen, maybe you don't know much about the United States. The demand for this category in the United States is not high. This company was founded seven years ago, but after they were founded, the relevant market was already divided. But the scale of this company is not large enough, and orders from overseas markets are simply not something a small company like him can get. But Pear is different, with Yan Guo's international status and Mr. Chen's international popularity, it is very easy to get relevant orders."
"Mr. Chen just needs to buy it, and he doesn't even need to lay off employees. It can be treated as an investment project and can start generating profits in one or two years at most."
"Developing countries like China and many backward countries have a very large demand for this kind of telecommunications equipment."
"But although there is a market, not everyone can capture it if they want to."
Chen Yang understood what he meant.
He was also thinking.
This market really does exist. He hadn't paid attention to it before because the company didn't have this segment.
But if what Alex said is true, then there really is something going on.
Just buy it, then look for orders, and you can start selling directly.
As long as you have enough financial resources, you can hardly lose money playing like this.
But what does this guy want?
If he remembers correctly, this Alex seems to be in a technical position.
Does a technical position still care about this kind of thing?
This doesn't allow Chen Yang to think about it any further.
