Du Zhaohui originally wanted to warn the two beggars and put on a bad face so that Xia Xiaolan would be more grateful when she invested in them.
Unexpectedly, Xu Jing and Ma Haiqiong couldn't even afford to stay in a hotel. Although Ithaca Town is not big, they wanted to find a fellow villager to stay overnight, but Du Zhaohui couldn't find anyone for a while. This is neither Hong Kong nor Pengcheng, and Young Master Du's face is not easy to use, so he can only give up this plan.
After staying in Ithaca for two or three days, Du Zhaohui felt much better.
But as Xia Xiaolan said, he had to go back to Pengcheng.
Pengcheng is now Du Zhaohui's battlefield. If he doesn't go back and bear the pressure, he will lose without a fight.
Let him easily give up the Du family's money to others?
Don't even think about it.
Du Zhaohui got on the plane, while Xia Xiaolan was also reading the information Xu Jing gave.
"These two have some skills."
They couldn't find a big manufacturer, but they took the trouble to find a lot of alternative materials. According to their assumption, the performance of the English-Chinese version of the electronic dictionary is stronger than that of the English-German version of the electronic dictionary.
Electronic dictionaries have just come out abroad, and the first version only supports translation storage of 3,000 words.
Xu Jing and Ma Hai¡¯s version has doubled the storage capacity of words, supports Chinese display, and also grasps the most important point that electronic dictionaries are better than traditional dictionaries. What do electronic dictionaries do? Paper English dictionaries have more words!
But even the teachers who teach English can't pronounce it accurately. Isn't it normal for students not to be able to read words? This is the current situation in China.
"The pronunciation and translation storage of 6,000 words is enough for the college entrance examination."
The target customers of electronic dictionaries are students, but not only students.
Xia Xiaolan never doubted its market prospects.
Of course, once Xu Jing and Ma Hai's electronic dictionary is successfully released, companies from all walks of life will rush to produce it.
Xia Xiaolan, who is deeply influenced by the ideas of later generations, still has to ask whether it is possible to bypass other people's patents. Domestic manufacturers talk about patents, and everyone rushes to produce products that are popular, dismantling electronic dictionaries into parts. As long as you understand how to assemble it, it is impossible for anyone to pay the patent fee.
In business, not only Xia Xiaolan has to face this problem, every boss is like this.
Can't get out of the chaos, factories and products disappear from the market as soon as they are done. It may be that the technology cannot keep up with the times, or it may be that the marketing decision is wrong. Who knows where a mistake is made and it will be over. Those well-known big companies in the later generations have all encountered many crises, and they were able to grow to such a large scale in the end. Those entrepreneurs are not babies with some skills. .
Fortunately, electronic dictionaries involve a big market, and the cake is so big that even a few more competitors can't fill it up for the time being.
What's more
"What Xu Jing and Ma Hai came up with is a few years earlier than I remember!"
Xia Xiaolan didn't bring Baidu to rebirth, so she didn't understand everything clearly.
Anyway, the first time she saw an electronic dictionary in her previous life was in 1994, before she graduated from high school. Considering that her hometown in her previous life was a small inland city, it would take two or three years for the electronic dictionary to spread to her hometown?
Pushing forward, the English-Chinese version of the electronic dictionary was produced and launched around 1990.
What, it was made three or four years ahead of schedule, isn't it a business opportunity?
Of course, the premise is that Xu Jing and Ma Hai can really make things and realize mass production. 20,000 US dollars is not enough. I don¡¯t know how much money those manufacturers have invested in research and development, but it is definitely more than 20,000 US dollars.
Xia Xiaolan closed the file.
After waiting two more days, she can talk to Xu Jing and Ma Hai.
$20,000 is too little.
40% of the shares are too few.
As the only big investor, if she hadn't had the final say on this matter, could it be that she really gave money to support the dreams of Xu Jing and Ma Hai?
Xia Xiaolan wanted to let the two people who started their own businesses out of nowhere feel miserable. Xu Jing and Ma Hai had the audacity to live in the fellow dormitory, and they had no free beds for them to sleep in, so they could only sleep on the floor.
Living in a basement in New York has a bed anyway!
I have to show up at Cornell University twice a day, relying on this to make my presence felt, I hope Xia Xiaolan will not forget that they are still waiting for an answer.
Even Ning Xue recognized the two of them, and stopped Xia Xiaolan when class was over:
"I saw two people who looked familiar. Is it an overseas student party??Have you spoken to them? One's surname is Xu, and the other's surname is Ma. "
Xia Xiaolan nodded, "You are not mistaken, they are here to look for me, they are Senior Brother Xu Jing and Senior Brother Ma Hai."
"Pay attention, I heard that they cheated a lot of people out of their money, and the Huaguo student circle in New York has a bad impression of these two people."
Ning Xue kindly reminded her.
Xia Xiaolan would not treat other people's kindness as a donkey's liver and lungs. She and Ning Xue couldn't get along with each other, but she never thought that Ning Xue was a bad person.
"Thank you for reminding me, but I'm curious, how do you know?"
How do you know? Of course it is very natural. When I first entered the circle, I was reminded to stay away from these two people.
"You don't believe what I say?"
Ning Xue frowned.
Xia Xiaolan shook her head, "No, I know you don't tell lies, I trust you very much. I don't trust others, since everyone shouts and beats these two people, why did Senior Li, who organized the overseas student party, have to invite these two people to How about participating? Shouldn¡¯t they be kept out of the circle so that more compatriots will not be deceived.¡±
This is true.
Ning Xue didn't think about this aspect carefully. The contradictory approach doesn't make sense logically.
"You mean, someone deliberately isolated, excluded, or even discredited Xu and Ma?"
Xia Xiaolan spread her hands: "I didn't say anything, it was just a guess."
Ning Xue is smart, she is smart, she really doesn't have much experience in the world, Xia Xiaolan doesn't want Ning Xue to be cheated. It may be that the foreign country made Ning Xue lower her vigilance. She remembered that Ning Xue never followed others. When she first entered Huaqing, others misunderstood her, and she did not see Ning Xue being affected.
Ning Xue's face suddenly turned ugly.
It's not that I'm angry with Xia Xiaolan, but I feel that I've been fooled.
It is also angry that the overseas students in Huaguo are not united. They all study abroad together, instead of helping each other, they do this kind of thing instead.
From Xia Xiaolan's point, Ning Xue has always taught her. She was suspected of wasting her talent and not motivated. I didn't expect her to teach Ning Xue instead I don't know why, but Xia Xiaolan thinks it's quite cool.
"Am I just a pervert who likes to bully people?"
Xia Xiaolan reviewed herself for three seconds, and left the classroom in a good mood.
It's time for her to give Xu Jing and Ma Hai an answer, at least she should go to New York to see their current achievements.
Back at Wen's house, Hu Ying poked her head from the kitchen:
"Are you back? A lady surnamed Xiang called today and said she wanted to come to your house to deliver something to you, but she didn't make it clear on the phone. Is it okay if I ask her to come over at eight o'clock in the evening?" (Remember this Website URL: www.hlnovel.com
