75: Chapter 75 I still need to earn a tip.

Gao Yuan nodded...

"Not just the wrist machine, but other products as well... though they won't be sold in Xia Country for now! If you're interested, you can go into smart homes. I can guarantee that Black Fish Technology will definitely not set foot in that market!"

Gao Yuan couldn't monopolize every business. While smart homes were already very advanced in the Future World, he still didn't plan on doing it...

First was the profit issue. There are many categories of smart homes, and development is tedious. Doing it himself would take a lot of effort for not very high profits!

Gao Yuan had Nine Stars open up the United States market for him because he wanted to clear the procedures...

Although chips were now sold all over the world.

That was only because he had played a hand with the Brainwave Imaging Device, and the Vice President of the USA had grudgingly accepted it.

If he wanted to break new products into the United States, it would definitely cause a backlash...

But with Nine Stars and the Morgan Family behind them leading the way, it would be much smoother.

Once the path was cleared...

Gao Yuan wanted to treat the United States as a 'pig farm experimental field' and arrange the Pig-Raising Trio first.

Of course, there was a strategy for promotion. The Constant Temperature Clothing would lead the way, letting the United States get a taste of the benefits first...

Then the Gaming Helmet would follow. Once the common people in the United States chose to lie flat, the Nutritional Paste could follow... after all, these people would have very few material needs; they would only need to stay alive!

As for... the wrist machine, it would be a revolution in smart devices that would sweep the world. No one could stop it. Even if someone tried to block it, it would only lead to smuggling running rampant.

Zhou Lei originally thought it was just the wrist machine. Hearing Gao Yuan say there were other things, he was stunned for a moment...

"What else is there?"

"They won't affect you, so I won't say! Let's talk about smartphones instead! I originally intended to take it slow and give you time to clear your inventory, but now someone is paying to help you clear it, so... I won't be polite! The wrist machine will be released globally next month..."

Zhou Lei knew this day would come sooner or later. It was also because Gao Yuan didn't want to be ruthless. If it were any other company, they would probably have started selling it now. After all, Zhou Lei knew that the wrist machines in the Black Fish Technology Industrial Park had already begun mass production.

Not only did Gao Yuan delay it for a while, but he was also trying to minimize their losses now...

What a good man!

Lei Jianjun also sighed with emotion: "I didn't expect the era of smartphones to end so quickly!"

The other three had no idea what was going on...

Qin Bing of the Xiaxing Group looked at Zhou Lei in confusion: "Chairman Zhou, what exactly is this wrist machine..."

Gao Yuan smiled: "President Chen, President Duan, President Qin, and President Lei, I'll give you a small gift. It's going to be released next month anyway..."

As he spoke, Shuishui brought over four boxes.

Lei Jianjun had only heard Zhou Lei talk about it but had never seen the actual product...

Now he took the box and opened it...

Zhou Lei acted as the narrator at this moment...

"Come, grip it tightly and let it feel your body temperature!"

"Yes, it's activated now. Open it like this, wear it on your wrist, and operate it with brainwaves. The wrist machine is equipped with a brainwave receiver; at the same time, it will feel your pulse to confirm the frequency matches, so there won't be any device interference! This is how you copy the SIM card..."

"Yes, the wrist machine currently supports various app formats. Why don't you try opening a video and see?"

"Now, try calling each other?"

"Play a game..."

"Listen to some music..."

"You can set the screen to be visible only to yourself..."

Zhou Lei showed off the wrist machine on his own wrist. This was the first wrist machine in the world to leave the Black Fish Technology Industrial Park...

It was right there on Zhou Lei's wrist...

Lei Jianjun was okay since he was mentally prepared...

The other three were completely dumbfounded!

They simply couldn't believe it...

Was this really not an imagination from a sci-fi world?

How exactly was this achieved?

This thing was simply a divine artifact.

Gao Yuan waited for them all to try it out themselves before clearing his throat.

"Everyone, someone wants to buy your mobile phone businesses... Does anyone refuse?"

The three... looked at each other.

Someone wants to buy? Who the hell is so stupid?

Once the wrist machine comes out, smartphones will be garbage!

Zhou Lei said from the side: "This is President Gao giving you a chance to choose again!"

The others had no objections now. Indeed...

If Gao Yuan did nothing and just prepared for the wrist machine to hit the market, they would probably suffer massive losses when it swept the national market.

Now, before the release, he had found a buyer for their industries!

"If you have no objections, I'll put it simply... Everyone has seen the news from Black Fish Technology; we are collaborating with Nine Stars! Nine Stars wants to re-occupy the Xia Country market..."

"If they can retake the Xia Country market, their phone business sales can increase by 40%! I believe our Xia Country is a land of etiquette. Since our neighbor wants it, why not give it to them? Of course, these resources must come at a premium... After all, everyone has worked hard; we still need to earn a hardship fee, right?"

Qin Yong smiled...

This was Gao Yuan telling them that their phone businesses could be sold to Nine Stars at a high price...

Everyone present was a big shot...

Naturally, they understood instantly...

Selling off the phone businesses that were destined to be obsolete and turning all those resources toward producing smart home devices.

You have to know that researching and developing phones is actually much harder than developing smart devices...

Now these companies were forced to turn their attention to smart home devices, which triggered a revolution in smart home equipment in the Xia Country market...

Of course, these big shots had long been planning new developments. For example, Lei Jianjun had been building cars, and they were almost ready to hit the market! The other big shots were the same. If phones could make money, they made phones; if phones couldn't make money, they would lay out other industries in advance! The smart homes Gao Yuan mentioned were also a good choice!

Ultimately, there is only one goal for human development—to become gods!

This 'becoming a god' wasn't about being a real immortal, but rather humans wanting to possess the abilities of gods. For example, humans using technology to move mountains, fill seas, and control the weather—these are the methods of immortals...

Humans fantasized about immortals traveling a thousand miles a day and soaring through the sky, so high-speed rail and airplanes were born...

Also, in human fantasy, immortals are happy and free from worries, so humans invented various entertainment and leisure facilities.

Immortals don't have to worry about food and clothing, and currently, most people have solved the problem of food and shelter.

And now the explosion of smart homes has pushed humanity one step further on the road to 'becoming gods'; humans can command 'all things'!

After Gao Yuan finished chatting with these mobile phone industry giants...

He contacted Nine Stars again...

Telling them that he had settled the Xia Country market and was now just waiting for them to come in...

Li Bingxi asked Gao Yuan how he had solved it...

Gao Yuan said four words: Chip supply cut off!

Li Bingxi understood instantly. This is the benefit of an industry monopoly. Black Fish Technology, combined with Xiawei's Dragon Core and Xiaxin International, almost monopolized the international chip market...

Chips are the upstream industry of mobile phones. If Gao Yuan wanted to cut off the supply, these manufacturers would be very passive. Although they could find other manufacturers to buy chips from, under the suppression of the Xia Country Chip Alliance, other manufacturers' chips were not competitive at all. You could buy from others, but after you bought them... what then? Your costs would be high, and performance would be low... You would have no competitiveness in the market at all!

Upon hearing that Gao Yuan had actually threatened these manufacturers with cutting off their supply just to let Nine Stars enter the Xia Country market, Li Bingxi was actually a bit moved for a moment. Black Fish Technology could actually go to this extent; Gao Yuan was truly too supportive... He had actually wanted to kill him before; it really shouldn't have been.

At this time, Li Taixi was full of confusion: "It's understandable that other manufacturers yielded, but Xiawei yielded too? That shouldn't be; Xiawei can produce its own chips..."
