After returning the call from a phone booth, Feng Yu's face was filled with excitement. Everyone could tell.
Feng Yu had asked Fu Guangzheng to look for Jiang Wanmeng in the future!
In the future, Jiang Wanmeng might have many identities. For example, an engineer, a boss, a member of the National Disc Committee, a member of the National Recording Equipment Standards Committee, etc.
But Jiang Wanmeng was only famous for one thing, which could change the world. He was the inventor of the VCD player!
This was the first time China had led the world in the electronics industry. But after 3 years, Wanyan brand, which he and his partners had set up, disappeared. There was only one reason. He did not apply for the patent, and the Japanese had successfully applied for the patent first. After that, Wanyan became famous all over the world.
Jiang Wanmeng was still a manager of a research facility. Although he had some shares, his net worth was only 1 to 2 million. Compared to others, Jiang Wanmeng could be considered a successful person. But compared to Feng Yu, he was just a poor engineer!
Jiang Wanmeng's Hyundai company was manufacturing TVs. But it was not selling well and only had a little influence in the local market. Jiang Wanmeng's research had been focusing on TV technologies.
Based on history, it should be next year. Jiang Wanmeng will attend the World Television Technology Exhibition in the US. He saw an image decompression technology developed by an American Chinese, Sun Yansheng's company. From there, he got the inspiration to develop the VCD player.
But in this lifetime, this will not happen. Because Sun Yansheng's company had bought the image decompression technology developed by Feng Yu!
During the summer, Feng Yu asked Wilson to go to the US to do two things. First, buy as many Microsoft shares as he can.
Microsoft had just terminated their cooperation with IBM and Apple, and their share prices had fallen to rock bottom.
Some of Microsoft's shareholders also wanted to withdraw their investments. At this time, Wilson appeared with a large amount of US dollars. He looked like a child who was giving away money.
Microsoft's market value had exceeded 1 billion USD, and the investors had made lots of money. After all, when Microsoft was listed in 1986, its total assets were only 2 million USD. But the investors and shareholders still criticized Bill Gates. They felt he was the one who caused the breakdown of Microsoft and Apple's cooperation with Apple and IBM.
The company's second largest shareholder, Paul Allen, had returned to the board of directors last year. This was also the reason why the company was in trouble. Paul Allen still had his own company and had been selling his shares for the past few years to inject funds into his new company.
Wilson did not care about Microsoft's share prices. He bought a few hundred million USD worth of shares at a high price and made Feng Yu Microsoft's third largest shareholder. He owns 18% of the company's shares. That means Gates, Paul Allen, and Feng Yu Gates, owns more than 90% of Microsoft shares.
But some of these shares are non-voting shares. But Feng Yu does not care. He will only attend the board meetings and will not interfere with Microsoft's operations.
Microsoft is doing well with Bill Gates managing it, and Feng Yu does not need to interfere. From next year onwards, Microsoft's share prices will increase exponentially, and by 1995, Microsoft's market value will exceed 20 billion USD! At that time, Bill Gates will become the World's Richest Man and will be the World's Richest Man for more than a decade!
After separating from Microsoft, Apple and IBM will suffer losses for the next two years. Not every company can balance their hardware and software at the same time.
Secondly, Wilson contacted Sun Yansheng in the United States and spent a "huge sum" of 18 million USD to purchase the image decompression technology developed by Sun Yansheng's company. Although this is a premium, Feng Yu's request to Wilson is to acquire this technology as soon as possible and apply for a global patent.
After that, this technology was patented, and Feng Yu owns it!
In Feng Yu's previous life, Sun Yansheng wants to promote this technology at the TV technology exhibition next year. But now, this technology is in Feng Yu's hands, and he will not show it to the public.
Feng Yu wants to pass this technology to Jiang Wanmeng for him to develop VCD players. In Feng Yu's previous life, Jiang Wanmeng had spent less than 600,000 USD to develop this technology.
In this life, Feng Yu can give him 1 million USD or even 10 million USD. As long as Jiang Wanmeng can develop this technology in the shortest time possible, he is not afraid of wasting money!
Monopolizing the market will bring in high profits. Just like the humidifiers and bladeless fans. There are no competitors, and the profits will be high.
In Feng Yu's previous life, after the VCD players were introduced, they sold more than 10 million units within two years. The profits were at least 1 billion USD!
Feng Yu was worried about getting someone else to develop this technology after he bought it. Sometimes, it needed talent and luck to develop this technology. That's why Feng Yu asked Fu Guangzheng to help him look for Jiang Wanmeng.
Fu Guangzheng was puzzled. This person Feng Yu was talking about was only a TV engineer. There was nothing special about this person. Feng Yu said he would do anything to find this person.
Was this person worth spending so much effort on? Even in Hua Xia, there were many engineers like Jiang Wanmeng. There were many engineers more famous than Jiang Wanmeng. Why did Feng Yu want this person?
Fu Guangzheng felt that Feng Yu must have thought of a new money-making idea and needed this person to complete it. Could it be that Feng Yu is going to start manufacturing TVs?
There were so many TV manufacturers now, and it was difficult to get out of the market. Fu Guangzheng could not tell what Feng Yu was going to do. Build a bigger TV? Or something clearer?
If Feng Yu was going to invest in TVs, should he get a hand in it? Feng Yu would not be able to manage the management of the TVs. If Fu Guangzheng were to suggest this, Feng Yu might allow him to be a shareholder.
But could this really make money?
Fu Guangzheng had found Jiang Wanmeng a few days ago. But he had been investigating and interacting with him. He did not notice anything special about Jiang Wanmeng. He only felt that this person was ambitious and had an active mind. But there were too many people like him in Hua Xia!
Fu Guangzheng even called his eldest uncle, Fu Rongqi. Fu Rongqi was also confused. He did not know what Feng Yu was thinking. In the end, he asked Fu Guangzheng to inform Feng Yu that Jiang Wanmeng had been found.
Fu Rongqi also wanted to know what Feng Yu was going to invest in before deciding if he should recommend Fu Guangzheng to invest.
Jiang Wanmeng had been found, and he will follow Feng Yu to Beijing tomorrow. Feng Yu had also informed Wilson to come to Beijing. He wants to recruit Jiang Wanmeng!
