"These guys …" Boss Jia scratched his head as he looked at the new business plan submitted by Sanghai Memory and the other companies. He just wanted to assemble computers and experience the feeling of being an installer. Why did he create a new computer company?
Moreover, the name of this computer company was very interesting. It was called Xiaomi. According to the business plan, it was named Xiaomi because the CEOs all loved to eat rice.
Well, in this life, Xiaomi had become a computer seller.
Fortunately, it was not named Hammer. Otherwise, Boss Jia would really have a headache.
"Chairman, do we approve this plan?" The secretary asked carefully.
"Since everyone has the intention, how can I stop them?" Boss Jia smiled. "How about this? You tell them that they will work together on this brand. The Daqian will not interfere. I will not interfere either!"
"Yes!"
When these CEOs heard that Boss Jia wasn't going to intervene, they were all a little surprised. However, they quickly came to a realization.
The chairman must have done this to avoid suspicion. Moreover, 90% of their own company's shares were Daqian's.
The newly established Xiaomi computer company naturally had 90% of the shares of Boss Jia. This was not a big difference.
On the contrary, Boss Jia took the initiative to give them control of the company. What a great boss!
These CEOs pondered and imagined. Xiaomi was set up and started to operate.
On the other hand, after the 500 computers were assembled, Boss Jia's Daqian Internet Cafe was officially open for business.

"Sir, this is the list compiled by the editors this year!" At this moment, in the chief editor's office of Fortune magazine in the United States, a new list was placed in front of the chief editor.
Yes, this was the list of the top 500 in the world in 1996. In the blink of an eye, a year had passed. It was time to re-rank the top 500 in the world again.
Probably recalling last year's experience, the chief editor directly turned to the last page of the top 500 list this time, but found that the name of Hua Xia's company was not there. Then he smiled and said, "Has the Daqian company fallen out of the top 500 list this year?"
"I don't think so!" The secretary whispered.
"But why didn't I see the Daqian's name?" the chief editor asked, puzzled.
"Sir, I think if you flip to the first few pages, you should be able to see the name of this company!" The secretary said. The editor-in-chief was stunned for a moment, then he started to check from the top to the bottom. Finally, he saw the name of the Daqian Group on the 120th position.
"The Daqian Group's turnover in 1996 was 25 billion USD! Is this data correct? "The chief editor muttered to himself when he saw the shocking data.
"Then I'll call Mike over!" the secretary said.
"Mike … the little guy from last year?" The chief editor recalled the scene where the little guy had forced him to be speechless last year. He could not help laughing involuntarily. Then, he said, "This little guy hasn't left yet?"
"No, he's been working very hard this year!" the secretary said.
"It's been hard on him! He's been ostracized! "The chief editor suddenly forgot that Mike was ostracized because of him, and it was because of him.
A few minutes later, Mike appeared in the chief editor's office. The chief editor asked directly, "The Daqian Group is ranked 120th with a turnover of 25 billion USD. It's almost 20 billion more than last year. Are you sure this data is normal?"
"I'm 98% sure. This data is only a little less!" Mike nodded.
"Then it's increased by so much? Even if they released a few blockbuster movies, it shouldn't be to this extent! "The chief editor still asked in disbelief.
"It can't be wrong. I didn't do anything else this year. Basically, I was responsible for investigating the Daqian's various industries and detailed data. So, the data collected is much more than last year. "
"After my investigation, I found that there was a big mistake in our data last year. The turnover of many Daqian companies was not recorded in my database!"
"So, it's not that the Daqian's turnover has increased so rapidly in a year. It's that our numbers were wrong last year. Their turnover last year was far from the income I found! "Mike said with certainty.
Looking at Mike's red, bloodshot eyes, the chief editor felt that he could trust this guy.
"In that case, I believe you!" The chief editor nodded. Because of the news that the Daqian Group had entered the top 500 last year, Fortune magazine was sold out in Hua Xia. This was unprecedented.
So, this time, the chief editor nodded so decisively.
Half a month later, the new issue of Fortune magazine was released worldwide. Most of the companies in the world looked at the rankings and ignored it.
Anyway, the top 500 in the world basically had nothing to do with them. And those companies that were on the list generally looked at their rankings first to see if there was an increase or decrease compared to last year.
In addition, looking at the top 10, they found that compared to last year, two companies fell out of the top 10, but two companies made up for it.
However, in 1995, the two Fusang companies that directly occupied the first and second place in the rankings fell to the third and fourth place this year. The first and second place of the rankings returned to the hands of the companies in the United States. They were General Motors and Ford Motor. Cars were really powerful.
As for Hua Xia people, of course, the first thing they did was to look for the rankings of Hua Xia companies.
However, they didn't have to go through so much trouble. The considerate media had finished reprinting and picked out the rankings of Hua Xia companies and put them in the newspaper.
Compared to last year's seven companies on the list, this year, Hua Xia had nine companies on the list, two more than last year. They were Hua Xia Food Group and Hua Xia's State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission.
Yes, in 1997, Fortune considered the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission as a separate company.
Among them, Hua Xia Bank rose from the original 207 to 164.
Its turnover also rose from 15 billion USD to 20.4 billion USD, which was worthy of celebration.
However, no matter how fast Hua Xia Bank developed, it couldn't compare to the Daqian Group. Because the Daqian Group's annual turnover had reached an astonishing 25 billion USD, it was ranked 120th and became the true number one among all the Hua Xia companies.
This made all the Hua Xia people shocked again.
One must know that last year, the Daqian Group was only ranked at the bottom of the rankings. But this time, he had risen by 380 places. This speed of improvement was even faster than Superman's!
