Chapter 2174 The First Dividend of the New Era
Wuliao, Feng Yiping of Jiasheng, who was rarely seen with Jin Ling, Lao Ma, and several other vice presidents of Jiasheng, gathered in the optical industrial park.
Seeing Feng Yiping looking at the box of glass solution as if he was looking at the most beautiful treasure in the world, Jin Ling was really a little uncomfortable.
After all, he is the youngest super-rich man in the world. In front of all of us, can you not look at something with such a money-grubbing eye?
"Do you need a tissue?" Jin Ling said, "Looking at you, you will definitely drool in a while."
"Haha," Jin Ling was in a good mood and did not say anything back to Feng Yiping.
He reluctantly withdrew his gaze from the boxes of glass solution below. "If I say that the value of this glass solution formula is equivalent to the value of the Coca-Cola formula, it would be a bit exaggerated."
"But, it is not an exaggeration to say that its formula is priceless."
"That's it?" "Really?"
After hearing what his nephew said, Mei Yiliang couldn't help but look down fiercely. "It seems that you spent 10 million US dollars to buy this technology back then?"
"Yes," Feng Yiping was really proud of this, "This should be the biggest leak I picked up."
"The reason why I didn't pay much attention to the orders from Motorola and Nokia before is because this product is the flagship product of our optical industrial park in the future."
After the optical industrial park was put into production, it also received some orders for mobile phone glass cover plates from Motorola and Nokia, but because those orders were relatively mature in terms of technical content and production process, and Motorola and Nokia had strict cost control over supporting factories, the profits of those orders were really not worth mentioning.
The reason for accepting the contract is that a group of skilled workers must be trained.
"Priceless?" Even Lao Ma muttered.
Pan Shimin was still puzzled at this moment. Why did Feng Yiping bring her here to attend this obviously very high-level meeting?
But after listening to Feng Yiping's words, she understood why he didn't seem to be very interested in co-founding an airline company several times before. It turned out that he picked up a random leak and it was so valuable.
However, these things are not finished products yet. Who will they be sold to and where will they be used?
"Can an order for Apple's new product make this patent priceless?" Jin Ling asked this question, and also answered Pan Shimin's question.
"Haha, it's not just an order from Apple. This order from Apple is just the beginning," Feng Yiping said. "Yes, Gorilla Glass is just a kind of glass, but we can imagine that in the future, if the products we produce based on this technology are applied to 2 billion, 3 billion, or even more products, what kind of picture will that be?"
"Billions of products will purchase our Gorilla Glass, and we hold all its patents?" Lao Ma became excited.
"Yes," Feng Yiping laughed again, "How about it, do you think this formula can really compete with Coca-Cola's formula?"
"Will it be such a large volume?" asked Drucker, the vice president in charge of human resources.
Originally, figures like 2 billion and 3 billion would not surprise him much, because he turned out to be the vice president of Starbucks.
Starbucks has nearly 20,000 stores worldwide, and the annual sales of coffee are also more than 2 billion and 3 billion cups.
But after all, it is a consumable that some people cannot live without every day, but this glass is used to match electronic products. The unit price of those electronic products is not low, and the unit price of this glass is also not low.
So, such 2 billion pieces, 3 billion pieces, will be a number that even he will be surprised by.
"Yes, Drucker, we can think about it. If the best glass panel of the mobile phone used by each of us in the future is our product," Feng Yiping took out his BlackBerry and gestured, "We can think about how big the demand will be?"
"We can also think about it. If the navigation equipment in each of our cars will also use our products in the future, how big the demand will be?"
Even the iPhone has not been released yet, and tablet computers have even less concept, so Feng Yiping had to refer to the navigation equipment in the car.
"So everyone still thinks that the cumulative demand for our glass is incomprehensible at the order of billions of pieces?"
"No matter how much demand there is, I can be sure that Wendell Weeks of Corning will have a wonderful expression on his face recently," Palmat, who has officially taken office as the global vice president in charge of cost control, said with some gloating.
He also took a hard look at the glass solution. No wonder this little guy is so rich now. He made this money so easily.
If this project is listed, the market value will be at least 10 billion US dollars.
10 billion US dollars. He only spent 10 million US dollars to get this technology.
"I think that Vickers, who has been in office for less than two years, is now thinking of canceling all of Horton's retirement benefits," he added.
Horton is the former president of Corning, the president who agreed to the deal.
"That's not the case. When the Internet bubble burst, it had a huge impact on Corning, which had invested heavily in the optical fiber field. Everyone has seen it. Corning was able to persist, and Mr. Horton also contributed greatly." Feng Yiping had to defend Mr. Horton.
"How many jobs can this product production line create in the future?" Jin Ling asked.
She knew Feng Yiping's other consideration.
Feng Yiping glanced at her, and you still understand me!
"Creating 100,000 jobs, it's easy," he said loudly.
In the original history, Corning only made substrates, and post-processing was handed over to Lens Technology, Bern Optics, etc.
But since Gorilla Glass is in his hands, Feng Yiping naturally has to do post-processing.
It can create profits and attract so many people to come for employment, why not?
"Another 100,000 jobs here?" It was Lao Ma's turn to sigh, "Then the next time we come, Wuli'ao will be so changed that we won't recognize it,"
"Yiping, you are still amazing," he said to Feng Yiping sincerely.
Lao Ma is also a bit ostentatious, but he is indeed a person with great social responsibility, although he doesn't know Feng Yiping's dream very well.
However, he admires Feng Yiping from the bottom of his heart for almost single-handedly turning this remote and poor town in the mountains into a more prosperous and powerful industrial town than those he often sees around Hangzhou, and making the people here and the surrounding areas away from poverty and gradually becoming rich.
"Have you ever estimated the future development of Wuli'ao?"
"Really not, but I just do everything I can," Feng Yiping said.
"In the future, this will at least be a city with a population of over one million," Lao Ma said, "and it will be different from the congestion and disorder of other economically strong towns in the country,"
"A million people, I think there seems to be no problem with this," Feng Yiping laughed.
Jin Ling was once again impressed by his acting skills.
A million people, would you be satisfied?
In the middle of this year, the population of Wuli'ao has already exceeded 500,000.
Not to mention other new projects, here in the optical park, there will be an additional 100,000 people in the future. How long will it take to break through 1 million?
Everyone has walked into the conference room at this time, "Okay, everyone, after the Apple conference, everyone will have a clear understanding of the prospects of our product,"
"But, we can't dream of making money easily by relying on this technology,"
"We can be sure that once this market starts, competitors will soon appear. Therefore, in order to maintain our leading advantage, I think we have to increase investment now and develop the next generation of products based on this technology,"
"Shi Min, this is why I asked you to participate today. I think that all our R&D institutions will be unified into the π department in the future,"
"I hope that the Institute of Optics can be incorporated immediately, and the next step of R&D can be started immediately,"
"I'll leave this matter to you and President Jin,"
"No problem," the two of them immediately expressed their opinions.
Pan Shimin finally felt that he really had a platform that was bigger than the airline he had always dreamed of.
"But these are not the main reasons why I asked everyone to gather here today," Feng Yiping stood up and said excitedly, "Everyone, soon, a new era will begin,"
"And Gorilla Glass is just our first bonus in this new era,"
