  Chapter 1057 Start early to take the lead

  In the living room of Jade Bird Technology No. 1, Liu Qingshan is listening to the report of the management team headed by He Wanqing.

   Jade Bird Technology's current main business is still Jade Bird mobile phones. Since the advent of Jade Bird's second-generation clamshell phone, the global sales volume has exceeded 3 million units.

   This will undoubtedly bring huge profits to the company, billions of gross profits, making Jade Bird Mobile a behemoth that attracts money.

   Driven by dozens of upstream and downstream factories and tens of thousands of employees, a huge group has been formed.

  Many young people have taken leadership positions in the company or become technical backbones. This is definitely the youngest and most energetic team.

  Some of these people are returned students, some are domestic university graduates, and they all devoted themselves to Jade Bird without hesitation.

  In this day and age, it really takes courage to give up the iron rice bowl.

   And Jade Bird did not disappoint them, whether it is wages or benefits, they are at the top level in China.

  In these aspects, Liu Qingshan has never been stingy.

   "Qingshan, the company has already started to make a profit. As of the second quarter of this year, the amount of profit has exceeded one billion. This year's net profit will reach three billion." He Wanqing said excitedly.

   Too much investment in the early stage, mainly those supporting factories, invested a lot of money.

   Now it has stabilized and entered a period of rapid benefit growth.

   "Sister, what are you going to do with so much money?" Liu Qingshan asked cheerfully, and he also wanted to consider He Wanqing.

  He Wanqing had a confident smile on his face: "According to the plan set by the company, about 15% will be used for research and development."

  Liu Qingshan nodded with a smile. Of course, high-tech companies must be willing to invest in research and development, so that they can continue to innovate and maintain a leading position.

  Like some foreign high-tech companies, the cost of R&D is even more than 20%.

  He Wanqing continued: "Because the Jade Bird computer project is launched, more efforts are needed in research and development. This year's funding in this area may reach 20%."

  Even so, the profit is still considerable, and He Wanqing proposed some incentives for employees, but it didn't cost much.

   "Qingshan, I really can't think of how to use the remaining money. With such a large initial investment, I suggest that we should distribute dividends to shareholders?"

  He Wanqing knew that the amount of money Liu Qingshan invested in this company should be paid back.

   Moreover, in addition to Liu Qingshan, the largest shareholder of Jade Bird Company, there are also Beijing University and other creative personnel, such as He Wanqing and Lu Zhi, who also have some shares.

  Although they don't hold many shares, they can't support a large base. Each of them can still achieve hundreds of thousands of shares.

   "There is no rush to pay dividends." Liu Qingshan smiled and waved his hands, "From an economic point of view, only by investing in reproduction can the benefits be maximized."

  He Wanqing blinked: "However, the projects we should invest in now are basically ready. If we expand blindly, I'm afraid it will..."

  Liu Qingshan waved his hand: "It's not to expand production, but to invest in the upstream raw material industry."

   "Are you talking about lithium mines?" He Wanqing was inspired to think of this first.

  Liu Qingshan nodded: "That's right, now we are producing lithium batteries for mobile phones, and we don't need many raw materials."

  “But we will develop higher-power lithium batteries in the future, and apply them to electric vehicles and even automobiles. At that time, the required raw materials will increase by tens of thousands of times.”

   Cars can still use batteries, don’t they all drink gasoline?

  Others couldn't keep up with Liu Qingshan's train of thought, but they were still excited enough after thinking about it, because Liu Qingshan gave them another direction for the future.

  Facts have proved that this Mr. Liu's vision has never disappointed them.

  He Wanqing thought for a while: "Qingshan, your proposal will definitely be approved by the company's board of directors first, but in terms of minerals, is private mining allowed now?"

   "It's human effort." Liu Qingshan knows that at the current stage, the management of minerals is still relatively chaotic, as long as he has the ability to get the mining license, there is no problem at all.

  However, you can only have the right to mine minerals, and the ownership is still state-owned.

   Therefore, this matter must have a state-owned background, and the two parties can cooperate in the long run.

   This matter is not in a hurry, Liu Qingshan first asked Ma Laosan and the others to contact him for help, and then asked He Wanqing to come forward for specific discussions after getting an idea.

  Lithium mines in China are mainly located in Sichuan Province and further west, especially salt lake lithium resources, which are very rich.

  In the current period, lithium resources have not been valued at all, they are worthless, and no one takes this as a good thing.

   Just taking advantage of the cheap price, start early and take the lead.

  Since it was Liu Qingshan's proposal, this matter is of course included in the company's development plan.

   For Liu Qingshan's strategic vision, everyone admires it, and admires it.

   Originally thought that this was the end, but Liu Qingshan couldn’t finish it, so he continued:

   "Lithium mines will definitely be a strategic resource in the future, so not only in China, but also in foreign countries."

   Everyone looked at each other and felt the gap: when their eyes were still focused on the country, Mr. Liu had already started to look at the world.

   "In addition to our country, South America also has relatively rich reserves of lithium ore resources. There is another region, and that is Australia."

  Liu Qingshan drew a big circle on the map, which is exactly where Australia is located.

  Mineral resources in foreign countries are different from those in China. After private purchase, they really belong to the individual.

  After decades, Australia's lithium carbonate export volume has always occupied the first place.

   This is a big piece of fat, and no one pays attention to it now, it belongs to the price of cabbage.

  If you can get it, even if you don’t mine it yourself, the value can be multiplied by hundreds of times in 20 or 30 years.

  This kind of temptation makes even Liu Qingshan envious.

  He Wanqing understood, and said with a smile: "Qingshan, you plan to spend the money in the company in a way."

  Everyone couldn't help laughing, and Liu Qingshan also said with a smile: "Saving money is the most uneconomical thing. Money will continue to depreciate. If there is a mine at home, that is real wealth."

   After speaking, he looked at everyone again: "This is also my personal investment advice to you. If you have money in your hands, don't keep it in the bank. It's just a string of numbers, which is meaningless."

   "Okay, I'll listen to you, let's all invest in real estate." Xiao Wu and the others said in a hurry.

  In the past two years, under the influence of Liu Qingshan, they have really invested in a lot of real estate. At least everyone has at least two courtyard houses.

  The housing prices at this time are cheap, and you can buy a small courtyard house for tens of thousands of yuan.

  Everyone chatted and laughed for a while, and then got down to business, mainly to discuss the matter of buying mines in Australia.

  For this matter, Liu Qingshan thinks it is better to operate through Lilan's company.

  Great trees attract the wind. Facts have proved that Liu Qingshan's investment vision has always been very precise.

  If he or his subordinate company came forward, it would definitely arouse the vigilance of the other party, and might raise the price on the ground.

  Anyway, most of the funds for Jade Bird's mobile phone sales are in US dollars, which is also convenient to use.

  Australia, known as the country sitting on the mine cart, gathers most of the mining tycoons in the world.

  However, as for lithium mines, almost no one pays attention to them now, and Liu Qingshan still has a chance to start.

  Investing a few hundred million now, in the future, the return will be tens of billions to hundreds of billions. Liu Qingshan is a little excited when he thinks about it.

  As for the lithium mines in South America, the distance is a bit far away, and there is a bit of chaos there, but Australia is relatively easy.

  The most important thing is that in the next few decades, Australia, as the younger brother of the United States, will do a lot of shit.

  Liu Qingshan has no pressure to cut flesh from this country.

  After deploying the company's development strategy, He Wanqing invited Liu Qingshan and his team to the laboratory to observe the assembly of the first Jade Bird computer.

  In the laboratory, dozens of backbones of the Jade Bird computer project are doing the final testing and debugging.

   There is Lavaz, who is in charge of the software, and the leaders of various project teams. They all look solemn, waiting for this solemn moment.

  Liu Qingshan and the others all changed into work clothes, and then entered the laboratory. On the test bench, there were a few boxes and various spare parts.

  Liu Qingshan did not greet everyone, but simply waved his hand: "It's time to start."

  The technicians immediately surrounded the case and got busy. Other preparatory work has been completed long ago, and now only the assembly is left.

  Liu Qingshan also took a look at the blue-black chassis, and felt that the shape was well designed, with the logo of the blue bird printed in the middle: the three-legged blue bird that spread its wings and wanted to fly.

  The general manager of the project is Yu Hai, a computer genius who is the best among the returned overseas students this time. He has five years of working experience in WANG Computer Company.

  Yu Hai introduced to Liu Qingshan: "Mr. Liu, our Jade Bird computer, in terms of hardware, except for the processor and memory, it uses the CPU and hard disk provided by WANG Computer Company."

   "The rest of the parts, including the motherboard, input devices and output devices, are all independently developed and produced by us."

  Liu Qingshan also nodded with a smile: It is quite good to be able to reach this level at the beginning.

  It’s better than importing all parts and then assembling a computer.

  A company like that is actually a computer assembly company without the slightest technological content.

  Liu Qingshan's plan is to localize all components within three years, including the two most important components, the CPU and the hard disk.

   Without the continuous technical support provided by WANG Computer, Liu Qingshan would not have dared to think about it.

   This is also the main reason why he valued WANG Computer Company at the beginning, which is equivalent to owning a higher platform.

  The technicians skillfully installed the components on the motherboard, and after connecting the wires, Yu Hai sent an invitation to Liu Qingshan: "Mr. Liu, will you complete the first startup of our Jade Bird computer?"

  Liu Qingshan smiled and waved his hands humbly: "This computer is the crystallization of your painstaking efforts. Everyone here is more qualified than me."

   "No, without Mr. Liu's efforts and support behind, there would be no Jade Bird Computer." Yu Hai's words represented the aspirations of everyone present.

   "Okay, then let us witness this moment together."

  Liu Qingshan didn't refuse any more, reached out and lightly pressed the power switch.

  Om, the machine was running and making a slight buzzing sound. To everyone's ears, it was simply the most beautiful piece of music.

  But immediately, with a bang, a puff of white smoke came out of the case.
