Chapter 1051 Spring River Plumbing Duck Prophet
"America's leader in the robotics industry, Boston Dynamics announced today that it was officially acquired by a joint acquisition group led by Alcatel Mobile!"
"The next outlet, the robotics industry?"
"Alcatel Mobile acquired Boston Dynamics for $500 million, and the global robotics industry ushered in a huge change!"
It was just rumored that Boston Dynamics was abandoned by the federal defense agency and became an abandoned child. Wall Street institutions and investment banks began to lower the valuation and expectations of Boston Dynamics. Boston Dynamics was acquired by a joint acquisition group formed by Alcatel Mobile. .
This wave of dazzling changes made people dumbfounded. I thought Boston Dynamics was about to fall from the altar, but who knew, it seamlessly embraced the thigh of the new benefactor!
As the most eye-catching presence in the global technology field, the launch of Alcatel mobile phones this time has made the electronic technology industry wonder whether the next trend will be robots? !
After all, Alcatel mobile phones have been leading the trend of the mobile phone industry. In the past few years, the popular MP3 music player is rumored to be caused by Alcatel mobile phones. It just wears the waistcoat of Diamond, and it is not even an MP3 player. Apple, the most profitable company in the device industry, is paying patent fees to Alcatel mobile phones.
Right now, Alcatel Mobile's sudden acquisition of Boston Dynamics, how can we not let people think about it, especially when the Internet crashed and countless people were pessimistic about the Internet's demise, Alcatel Mobile's sudden acquisition of Boston Dynamics had to make Silicon Valley colleagues It is speculated that the outlet for robots is coming.
It has become the consensus of practitioners in Silicon Valley to follow Song Yang and eat meat. In the past few years since Song Yang debuted, there have been many outlets that have emerged because of Song Yang, such as Internet advertising, e-mail, social networks, electronic payments, etc. It's all because of Song Yang's popularity, how many companies have followed suit and made a lot of money, and there are countless people who have been listed on NASDAQ and wantonly cut leeks!
When the situation changes quickly, the outlet is an opportunity, and the outlet is a beauty. When Alcatel mobile phone was acquired by Song Yang, it could barely be regarded as a second-rate mobile phone brand. Now, it has become a mobile phone giant on an equal footing with Nokia. The reason is that Alcatel mobile phones have stood on top of the trend and introduced concepts such as mobile phone operating systems, 2G networks, music phones, and camera phones, making Alcatel mobile phones quickly become a giant.
Now, Alcatel mobile phones are entering the field of robotics. Will other Silicon Valley companies follow?
Who would have trouble with the US knife, even if it is suspected to be a trap, there are still countless Silicon Valley companies rushing up one after another. In just a few hours after the news of Boston Dynamics' acquisition, more than 20 companies in Silicon Valley Announcing entry into robotics!
Followed by Silicon Valley venture capital companies that have been silent for a long time, the Silicon Valley Gemini venture capital industry led by Sequoia Investment and KPCB have also announced that they have begun to bet on the field of robotics, and large sums of money have begun to pour into this industry. .
When Marcus arrived in Houston, he heard the news that Microsoft, Yahoo, IBM, Intel, Cisco and other giant companies also began to announce their entry into the robotics industry, or develop chips for bionic robots, or develop robotic systems, Software, algorithms, etc., for a while, the technology industry seems to have returned to its original glory. It seems that these giant companies are also afraid of being eliminated by the next trend!
When I saw these news, Marcus was stunned. The acquisition of Boston Dynamics would cause such a big chain reaction, which Marcus never thought of.
The companies in Silicon Valley, as well as the giant companies in America, are afraid of Song Yang, which can also be seen. In the future, the competition between the companies in Song Yang's hands and those giants may become more intense!
After Marcus arrived in Houston, he rushed directly to a golf club. Under the administration of Adrian and Chuck Rhodes as mayors of Houston, Houston has become the fastest growing state in Texas and even in America. The city's good law and order, low taxes and even tax-free policies have caused countless giant companies to move their headquarters here one after another.
Even if something like Enron's bankruptcy happened, it still couldn't hide the prosperity of Houston, which has become the fourth largest city in America after New York, Los Angeles, and Chicago.
It is not as obvious as it is twenty years later, but more and more old white money have begun to relocate, or buy real estate, farms, and office buildings in this red-neck state and rust-belt city that they used to call.
Spring River Plumbing Duck Prophet, America is changing. It would be a bit of a lie to say that the gang of old white money who has various resources in America don’t know it. prepare for.
With the arrival of countless giant companies and old white money, the land in Houston has also begun to increase in price. Golf clubs, country clubs, etc. have also begun to spring up like mushrooms.
However, among the various clubs, the club in Houston that is a place where various powerful people gather, and where countless Houston celebrities flock to, still belongs to the golf club that Adrian used to go to. After Adrian, Chuck Rhodes took over the club as a matter of course.
Marcus is no stranger to this golf club, and has been here several times with Song Yang. When he arrived at the gate of the golf club, he saw Greck waiting there.
The two did not greet each other, but nodded to each other, and immediately walked towards the golf club. When they arrived at the golf course, Marcus saw Song Yang was swinging the club with Chuck Rhodes, and there were many people around him. face.
"It seems that there are quite a few people here today!"
Gleick looked at those people and said to Marcus, who nodded, "There are not a few companies interested in Enron's legacy, giant companies in the oil, gas, electric power, mining and other industries, including Koch, Mobil, Eck Mori, ConocoPhillips, Danaki Power, Duke Energy and other companies will be present today!"
Although, in name, the Enron heritage will be auctioned publicly, but in fact, there are still a small number of companies that are eligible to enter this gluttonous feast, and in the auction house, those Enron properties that are auctioned will also be divided up!
Today is the day to carve up the Enron industry. The famous natural gas, oil, electric power and other energy companies in America will come to participate, and Chuck Rhodes will act as the referee.
"Song, some of the people who came today exceeded my expectations!"
Chuck Rhodes made a strong swing, looked at those people standing on the golf course, and said to Song Yang with a little worry.
Song Yang's face remained unchanged, he shot a shot at random, and threw the club to the caddy beside him, smiled and patted Chuck Rhodes on the shoulder, "If it was Adrian, he would definitely not There are such worries!"
Chuck Rhodes' complexion changed slightly. This is the biggest difference between Chuck Rhodes and Adrian. Facing these energy giant companies, Chuck Rhodes' first thought was to worry about offending them. Helping giant companies, I am afraid that these giant companies will be dissatisfied.
Of course, this idea is correct. In America, how many people can face these energy giants without changing their faces. These energy giants can really make trouble in America. The mountain masters don't lose face, and they can even make America launch a war for energy.
But if Adrian is in the position of Chuck Rhodes today, although he will also be afraid of these energy giants, he will never be afraid, but will compete with these energy companies on his own territory and at home. Reaching an agreement, and even controlling these giants for his use, this is why Adrian was able to climb to the position of governor of Texas in such a short time.
Adrian is trying to control those giants instead of being a puppet in the hands of the giants. There is an essential difference between the two. The former is more dangerous and risky, but the benefits are also huge, and it is also necessary to climb to the top of the American Pyramid. Ability!
Chuck Rhodes could hear the meaning of Song Yang's words, and his face changed a few times. Then, under the eyes of everyone on the golf course, he followed Song Yang's footsteps and came to a parasol.
Seeing the choice of Chuck Rhodes, the representatives sent by the surrounding energy giants were also slightly taken aback, and then many picked up the phone and started calling the headquarters. Obviously they also saw that this time , The Bruno family is also going to enter the venue, and get a share of the Enron Group's pie!
