Chapter 1033: Discussion Between Directors and Shareholders (4K)
(Introducing the internal situation of the world's largest company, there are many different opinions, you can skip and not subscribe.)
Inside the world's No. 1 Guojia company called meilijian, there are major interest groups with the same structure as urban romance novels.
They control all the movements of this big company, business, media marketing, security department, production department, R&D department... Wall Street chaebols and the Federal Reserve can use financial tools to "realize business", and the security department and the military-industrial complex are you in me, I am you in me.
In addition, there are major branches of the biomedical department, which affect the world's medical environment. Energy groups, trade groups, new chaebols of technology companies, etc.
And these chaebols and groups are also deeply entangled. The power control of Goldman Sachs Capital affects banks and enterprises, thus combining into one monopoly group after another.
Capital will never stop pursuing expansion. If it monopolizes energy and oil, it can control the financial industry and manufacturing industry, because oil as an energy source is comparable to gold, and oil can bring a series of chemical products. They directly or indirectly control industrial and mining enterprises, and occupy an important position in various economic sectors such as metallurgy, chemistry, rubber, automobiles, food, air transportation, telecommunications, and the arms industry.
Among the group forces supporting Boston Dynamics, there is the Boston Consortium.
This consortium had no status a hundred years ago, but since the 1940s and 1950s, relying on the scientific research results of universities such as MIT, they have invested heavily in the development of industry and made great strides in hard projects such as electronics, optics, space, and missiles, thus reaping countless top scientific research results in the past three decades and earning a huge amount of money and resources.
For example, Textron, a company supported by the Boston Consortium, not only manufactures aerospace products, but also manufactures various electronic components, and has an aircraft company that specializes in the development and production of helicopters for the Five∠ Building and other capital tycoons and enterprises.
Seeing that the fruits of his own land needed soil and fertilizer, but were rejected by the man with rosacea, a gentle-looking old man raised his hand slowly.
When others raised their hands, they might feel a little weak, like students.
But when this old man raised his hand, the conference room suddenly became several decibels quieter, and even Uncle Sam, who was sitting in the main seat, sat a little straighter.
In the decades before he took office, this old man was the one he needed to look up to, so this reaction had long been engraved in his body.
Although the old man was old, his voice was not the kind of vicissitudes of old age, but rather the clarity of a wise philosopher.
"No great scientific research result has ever been favored by everyone and invested in consistently at the beginning.
Michael Faraday, the father of alternating current, discovered the phenomenon of electromagnetic induction, but only attended elementary school for two years. If it weren't for the chemist Humphry Davy who gave him resources and hired Faraday as his laboratory assistant, we might still be fighting against the indigenous savages.
Gu Qing, the founder of Jiuzhou Technology, improved and upgraded the intelligent system, and then began to use all his resources to promote the research and development of major projects such as semiconductors and smart home appliances. The funds he could mobilize at the time were Compared with any of us here, Gu Qing is a negligible existence.
But even with such a little bit of nutrients, Gu Qing has been supplying them with all his might. Every penny earned by Jiuzhou Technology and every resource won have been requisitioned. Have those profit-making departments never quarreled?
There must be disagreements and disputes, but Gu Qing can still suppress all these unstable factors and invest all resources in unknown areas.
It is precisely because of this obsession and persistence in scientific research that Jiuzhou Technology can master silicon-based semiconductors, develop practical cutting-edge carbon-based semiconductor chips, and even launch satellites in just a few years. Go to the orbit of Blue Star and compete with our Western companies for the interests of outer space.
So I need to tell everyone present that Dr. Rosen may be our Gu Qing, and Rosen Technology Company is likely to be our Jiuzhou Technology.
First, crack, then study and develop, and finally surpass the forerunner.
Among all Western companies and research institutions, only Dr. Rosen can lead the team to overcome the technical confidentiality procedures of Jiuzhou Technology, and only Dr. Rosen can lead the team to decipher and learn.
I am very interested in him and am willing to support the development of Rosen Technology Company. Boston Dynamics used to be a city that supports technology research and development, and it will continue to be a city that supports technology research and development in the future.
If there are friends who are willing to work with us to create a new future and find new directions for the development of the technology industry, we will prepare dinner and wine to welcome people to come with us.
If someone is unwilling to regain the crown with us, then please don't disturb our development and go back to your own field cabin.
I can accept that someone is unwilling to go with me, but I absolutely cannot accept that someone is unwilling and does some destructive actions at the same time. "
The old man looks like he is in his seventies or eighties, but when he said the last sentence, his voice was as hard as steel.
The meeting room was also quiet for a moment.
Everyone was thinking about the gains and losses and the direction of power. Even the one from Boston Dynamics who had been sarcastic before, stopped talking, groaned, turned his head, and discussed with his allies and teammates.
In the company's internal high-level board meetings, some directors have more say than any president, and this head of the Boston consortium is one of them.
Although it cannot be said openly, in fact, in today's meeting, this old man can directly go to the stage and take the central position, and there will not be too many people to object.
According to the Federal Reserve Act passed by Uncle Sam's Congress in the last century, the Federal Reserve consists of the Federal Reserve in Washington and 12 Federal Reserve Banks distributed in various regions of the United States.
As stated in the status, the headquarters of these 12 Federal Reserve Banks are located in Boston, New York, Philadelphia, Cleveland, San Francisco... and other twelve places.
Each Federal Reserve Bank is responsible for a large region.
The most important monetary operations of the Federal Reserve are formulated by the committee.
The seven executive members of the Federal Reserve in Washington and the Federal Reserve Bank of New York have permanent voting rights. The remaining four votes are allocated in rotation by three cities.
These 12 Federal Reserve Banks are not actually federal government agencies. Each Federal Reserve Bank has its own board of directors from the private sector. The board members are often CEOs of large companies in the region, presidents of famous universities and other elites.
Therefore, the collusion between interest groups has made the existence of the Federal Reserve, which is similar to Uncle Sam's state-owned bank, a very reasonable way to make the proportion of private holdings greater than the official holdings of the United States, an extremely sharp sickle.
It is equivalent to the central bank of the United States, controlling the issuance of US dollars, interest rate hikes, interest rate cuts and other regulatory measures.
And the head of the Boston Group can not only influence the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston, but also radiate to surrounding areas, and even affect cities such as Philadelphia.
Through the elite connections of high-tech companies and universities, the resources that the Boston Group controls or indirectly owns are the envy of the military-industrial complex and Wall Street chaebols.
Of course, the development of technology companies and biopharmaceutical companies has been invested by Wall Street chaebols, military-industrial complexes, and medical education groups. Only this state of you in me and me in you can allow the American Development Corporation to maintain rapid development for nearly a hundred years.
Some people sitting in the conference room are even the grandfathers of the grandson-in-law of this old man...
"New York's GDP has just reached one trillion US dollars, Los Angeles' GDP is more than 800 billion US dollars, and Boston's GDP is only 500 billion US dollars. If it weren't for the printing of money and raising interest rates in recent years, they might even be at the level of 400 billion US dollars. Can they really invest all the available resources in Rosen Technology?
I think this is an open conspiracy, just to threaten us, so that we have to give them some resources, otherwise if our moon landing plan succeeds, they will completely lose their leadership advantage in science and technology."
As the second largest city in the United States, Los Angeles is also known as the third largest city in the world. It is the largest base of petrochemical, aerospace and electronics industries in the United States, and it is also one of the technology centers in the United States.
And Los Angeles has a huge advantage over Boston, that is, the number of scientists it has, which is the first in the United States according to statistics.
Therefore, during the discussion, someone "suggested": "I understand your principles very well, and I also agree that America needs to develop technology to continue to win the future.
But I think that Los Angeles has a better environment and resources to provide Dr. Rosen with development. I think Rosen Technology can set up its headquarters in Los Angeles and place its R&D center and manufacturing center here.
California Institute of Technology, University of California, University of Southern California, Pepperdine University and many technology companies in Silicon Valley, Apple, Intel, Google. Teras, Nvidia, Cisco can provide Dr. Rosen with industry-specific resources that are familiar enough to the project and can be used.
Overall, there is no place in the United States that is more suitable for the development of Rosen Technology than California.
I can promise that whether it is Los Angeles or Silicon Valley, or any place in California, as long as Dr. Rosen is willing, we can provide him with the best resources in the entire Blue Planet!
Of course, we also welcome the Boston University Alliance and other technology companies to join and cooperate."
It can only be said that this world will never lack people whose brains turn faster than their bodies.
While everyone was still discussing the pros and cons, a high-level elite in California shouted out such a promise that was not practical.
Some people even complained about this kind of people: "Everyone knows that you are rich in California, but why don't you Silicon Valley companies return to the top of the world?
Even without Jiuzhou Technology, can Pingguo Company compare with Xiaxing and Xiawei, which use carbon-based chips? I heard that some time ago, Daxia mobile phone companies such as OPPO will also start selling smartphones equipped with carbon-based chips, and Hongmeng system will also enter the global market.
Unable to stop these enemies, what else can Google, Microsoft, and Pingguo do? Sell the company headquarters? Or the same old way, use layoffs to make the financial report look better, and then go to the stock market to make money?
I heard that in the past three years, the outflow of talents from your Silicon Valley companies has been higher year by year, and most of them have gone to Daxia technology companies. You should reflect on yourself!"
In addition, there are also more rational neutral voices.
An elite who once worked in Pingguo's senior management stood up and said: "Since Dr. Rosen has been able to lead the team to complete the cracking and deciphering of Jiuzhou's technology products, and Dr. Rosen and his team have also achieved some results, why not first take out some results and hand them over to those technology companies to manufacture and upgrade?
If these technologies are proven to be feasible by the market, we can continue to increase investment, so that Dr. Rosen can achieve more success, so that more American technology companies can benefit, so as to seize back the global market and let global scientific research talents return to our technology companies again."
There are implementation strategies and enough fragrant empty cakes.
But the people in this conference room are all old foxes.
As soon as this elite from Pingguo's high-level background finished speaking, someone sneered at him and said, "Let those technology companies manufacture and upgrade the results of Dr. Rosen and his team?
You can come up with such a method of making something for nothing?
We are discussing how to develop and expand Rosen Technology Company and make it the world's top technology company that is more powerful than Jiuzhou Technology.
We are not discussing how to seize other people's scientific research success and provide blood transfusions to those technology companies that have wasted trillions of dollars."
"We don't have that much time to wait for market feedback. Daxia is no weaker than us in military terms. Since the end of the last century, Their laser weapons and electromagnetic weapons have reached a level that we cannot detect, which is extremely dangerous. "
"We need a miracle, a miracle company that can take the lead in defeating Jiuzhou Technology and swallow up Daxia's scientific research resources.
Rosen Technology Company is an embryo, it has unlimited potential and future, but we can also let some high-tech companies join in and let them participate in the development of American technology. After all, they are the huge forces that have mastered the scientific research strength of the United States. Only with their participation can our America return to the top of the world. "
Just on the issue of resource investment, the people in this conference room argued for several hours.
When everyone was arguing with red faces and dry mouths, there was still no solution that was affirmed by the majority.
Even the head of the Boston Group, who was in a high position at the beginning, was also in the debate and was smoothed over by a more prestigious existence.
In the end, this top-level meeting ended in vain without everyone reaching a consensus.
