Li Changying smiled slightly and shook his head, "Bingzhu, you got a big deal this time, otherwise you wouldn't have been able to meet Buckingham Palace's dedicated manager even if you spent millions of dollars!"
"Yes, yes," Li Bingzhu's eyes gleamed. "If we can join the ranks of direct supply, the brand effect of our mobile phones will be greatly improved immediately, at least in the European and American markets!"
Liu Qingshan did what he said, immediately took out his mobile phone, found Li Minzhen's mobile phone and dialed.
Although Jin Xishancai is the official spokesperson of Mulberry, only he can do this kind of thing. After all, he himself has a close personal relationship with the British royal family.
Li Minzhen happened to return to London during the Chinese New Year holiday. When she answered the phone, she was attending a company dinner, and there was the president of Mulberry Corporation at the same table.
The man's name was Kempes, who had a close royal bloodline and had a close relationship with Prince Daniel.
When he heard that the call was from Liu Qingshan, he immediately asked for the phone from Li Minzhen: "I had dinner with His Highness Daniel yesterday, and I heard from him that Mr. Liu introduced several business orders!"
The official prince of the British royal family, although he has a special agent in business and does not come forward himself, but everyone knows the inside track.
Liu Qingshan smiled and said: "That is His Highness the Prince's personal ability. I just made a recommendation! Mr. Kempes, he also mentioned you to me in person and said that he has a very close personal relationship, so I took the job." Your company made an order tailor-made for me!"
His words were not lies. When Li Minzhen made this suggestion, he did call Daniel. After all, in addition to the commercial significance, it also involved the royal family's face.
"The prince also told me that in fact, Manager Li's original decision caused a big sensation in Mulberry, and I am holding a celebration banquet for her right now!"
"Thank you, Mr. Kempes. I called her today because I currently live in the Qixing Li family's manor. Mr. Li Bingzhu gave me and Sister Xishan a mobile phone each. Although I am not the official spokesperson of Mulberry , but you have to tell it in advance.”
"Oh? Since it is a gift from Mr. Li himself, there must be something unusual about it, right?"
"Well, this is a good thing. Do you want him to send one to you after the festival?"
"Let him come directly. I will not miss the good things from Mr. Liu's mouth! Give him one more. I will be with His Royal Highness then and ask him to call me in advance. Manager Li will do it later. I’ll leave him my cell phone number!”
The seemingly difficult matter was solved in these few words. Kempes had been in business for many years and immediately understood the implication of Liu Qingshan's words.
The meaning of calling specifically for a mobile phone is profound, and besides, he himself is a member of the royal family.
"Then thank you Mr. Kempes. I will definitely pay you a special visit when I go to London in the future. Besides, you are Sister Xishan's boss!"
Different from the excitement on his son's face, Li Changying also nodded silently while listening. He could see more from Liu Qingshan's communication method.
Not only his language skills but also the depth of his personal relationship with Prince Daniel were put to the test.
There are rumors outside that Liu Qingshan has close contacts with the British royal family. Although Li Changying will not question it, he still has a conservative estimate of how close the other party is. After all, the royal family has more or less the highest level of the United States. influence.
Now that he had heard how smoothly this relationship was used, he then said after Liu Qingshan hung up the phone: "Shanzi, you actually have business cooperation with Prince Daniel?"
Liu Qingshan nodded, "I just helped him contact a few investment deals. In terms of movies, money is a trivial matter, but more importantly, he can get a foothold in Hollywood!"
"Hiss, people who can invest a lot of money in Hollywood are big capital, and they have been controlled by several major chaebols for a long time. No wonder His Highness the Prince is particularly fond of you! But how did you do it? As far as I know, You've only invested in a few scripts so far, right?"
"Those scripts played a role, so I have a basis for cooperation with several film companies. It is not difficult to get an investment quota through them!"
"Hehe, you are being humble. I actually know how difficult it is. This is not a simple matter of affection. You must have other sacrifices, right?"
Liu Qingshan raised his thumb at him: "I can't hide anything from you when you come here. Those people are very shrewd, and they are all cunning. I got them in exchange for a TV series script!"
"Let me tell you, the big chaebols in the United States are not so easy to persuade. Those people have plenty of money, but what they lack is more investment projects. It seems that the quality of your TV series script is very high!"
"The quality can't be said to be very high. The important thing is to choose the subject matter correctly. It can only be photographed in Europe and the United States. I would like to shoot it myself in the future, but the real environment does not allow it!"
"Well, I can understand! I heard that you also helped Binghe invest? It's also a TV drama script? Bingnan also needs to take proper care of it!"
The younger one, Li Byung Hyuk, is Li Eun Mei's twin brother. He is not as business-savvy as his two elder brothers. This is why Liu Qingshan is willing to help him introduce investments.
As for Li Bingnan, the second son in charge of Qixing's domestic business, Liu Qingshan really ignored it.
Hearing the other party's blunt suggestion, he couldn't pretend to be deaf: "That script was specifically produced by MCC. It's just right for Brother Binghe to invest as one of the shareholders! Brother Bingnan, I can't speak directly. After all, he I am a layman in making my career prosperous!"
"You are no layman. Anyway, I told you in advance that you must hook him up if you have the chance in the future!"
"Since you always told me, of course I have to remember it firmly. In fact, there is a project right now, but the investment will be huge. I have the talent there, but it is still in the early stages of design!"
"Oh, what kind of project is it?"
"In a few years, we will be in the era of smartphones. I have already found people to develop chips for smartphone communication functions, including basebands, processors, co-processors, touch screen controller chips, processors, wireless ICs and Power management IC and so on, but it has just started, and only a small amount of data has been completed on the scientific research project!"
In fact, he doesn't have any scientific research team. All he has in hand is some data from the super star maker.
What he currently lacks is the actual production side. The scientific research department of Qixing Mobile Phone is one of his goals, but it is not yet time. After all, smartphones are still in the concept stage.
But this future development prospect is not a trade secret. Including Apple, there are already relevant scientific research teams developing smart chips. Liu Qingshan’s 20% stake is guaranteed to be a technology investment. He has already invested part of it. The data is provided.
It's just that Apple smartphones have specialized technical support. Other systems, such as Android, have been developed as early as the end of 2003. Qixing holds a part of the shares. He needs to seize the technology naming rights for the final version in advance.
In particular, chip lithography machines will be blank in the country for a long time to come. Moreover, due to technological blockade issues, they are subject to constraints from relevant manufacturers. He plans to establish a Chinese semiconductor manufacturing unit only after achieving preliminary results.
Therefore, grabbing time is the top priority among all problems. The pioneering chip manufacturing process will eventually focus on the lithography machine. It is the crystallization of global wisdom. No one company or even one country can complete it alone. .
He plans to invest in relevant national enterprises with technology, and has the world's leading hardware and software technology in his hands. However, compared with those related manufacturers that have already formed a certain scientific research process, it is very difficult for China to make breakthroughs in lithography machines in the short term. Fortunately, he I still have a little star in my hand.
A Dutch company began developing EUV lithography machines in 1999, and originally planned to launch the product in 2004, which was last year.
However, it was not until 2010 that the company developed the first EUV prototype, and it was not available to downstream customers until 2016, more than ten years later than expected.
It wasn't until 2019 that the first 7-nanometer EUV process chip was officially commercialized. With Xiaoxing, a smart computer from the future, the time for EUV prototypes to be launched can be infinitely shortened.
Of course, he doesn't care what method Xiaoxing will take, whether it's stealing or stealing, in short, there can be no delay in mastering the core technology in advance.
You must know that building an EUV lithography machine is more difficult than building a nuclear bomb. It is no exaggeration to say that it is the crystallization of global wisdom.
This requires a combination of light sources from the United States, optical lenses from Germany, CNC machine tools from Switzerland and other cutting-edge technologies from many countries. It contains more than 100,000 precision parts. Without core technologies in hand, it would be difficult for China to complete it alone.
So he thought of Qixing. Currently, Qixing has already established research projects in this area. What they lack most is data, and Liu Qingshan's appearance will give them the most practical scientific research help.
While handing over part of the data to Qixing for further development in the early stage, he would also work with domestic scientific research departments to form a non-existent scientific research team, allowing China's own manufacturers to quietly form future production capabilities.
Because the cutting-edge technologies of many countries are strictly prohibited from being exported to China, there is no way around using the purchasing channels of Han Kingdom Seven Stars.
The key thing is that Qixinghui has been kept in the dark. With the existence of a large number of scientific and technical personnel in Snowland Studio, others will believe that he currently has the development capabilities in this area.
Then, by borrowing Qixing's R&D and manufacturing capabilities, the country will formally participate in the name of joint development, and cutting-edge technology and equipment can be introduced into the country bit by bit.
This requires the secret cooperation of Qixing. After all, it is not easy to bypass those manufacturers with cutting-edge technology. This is one of the future high-tech industries that Liu Qingshan has planned for a long time and has not been able to gradually implement. It has more global strategic significance than movie special effects.
Although he has the hard task of establishing an entertainment dynasty, he does not have a strong motherland to support him, and his great success is only a personal honor.
Borrowing future achievements in smart chips and lithography machines to promote the rapid advancement of China's overall scientific and technological strength is the basic guarantee for a strong and prosperous country.
