the world is at stake

Judging from the data in front of Zhou Qingfeng, the situation is more optimistic than the media expected.On February 2th, 'Holy Light' sold more than 14 million iPhones worldwide.

Consumers who ordered before can't wait to go to telecom operators or specialty stores to pay the final payment and take away their long-cherished mobile phones.

They were surprised to find that what the president of 'Sacred Light' showed at the product conference was not all about the iPhone, and the deeper fun was hidden in dozens or hundreds of APPs.

After getting it for trial use, everyone found out what is the touch screen?At most, the operation method has changed, and the built-in APP is the real focus.

Consumers 20 years later will hate the self-contained APP in the mobile phone that cannot be deleted, but now the people are happy to accept all new things, and feel that 'Holy Light' is very thoughtful and provides the convenient services they want.

Just register once with your mobile phone number, and all apps in the iPhone will use the same account, which is very simple.Then there are all kinds of free and paid applications.

There are various tipping habits in the West, and there is also a high degree of support for genuine software.For foreign consumers, it is normal and natural to buy a service for a few dollars.

The software service fee provided by 'Holy Light' is also relatively cheap, the expensive one is ten dollars, and the cheap one is only fifty cents.Many foreign users are almost rushing to buy experience.

Judging from the summary data in the background, the purchase of paid software is in an explosive period.

For every minute Zhou Qingfeng wasted in a daze, consumers all over the world paid him more than one hundred thousand dollars.This lasted all day and didn't drop slightly until 1 hours later.

Just like that, the paid software revenue of 'Holy Light' exceeded [-] million US dollars.Since these software are basically copied and simplified from the programs of later generations, there is almost no development cost.

In addition to the cost of operation and maintenance such as renting servers, this [-] million US dollars is equal to a net profit.

This is just the beginning, and there will be more advertising revenue, more paying users, and more profits in the future-it is a wonderful life to lie down and collect rent.

Bang bang knocked on the door a few times, and Yilan walked in from outside the office.To Zhou Qingfeng who was alone in a daze in the huge office, she smiled and said, "I think you should hear some bad news."

"Is there any bad news?" Zhou Qingfeng raised his head.

"The U.S. and Mexican anti-narcotics police conducted a joint operation and raided a drug manufacturing factory in Mexico City, arresting [-] drug dealers on the spot."

"What does this have to do with us?" Zhou Qingfeng spread his hands, "I support the arrest of drug dealers."

Elan smiled, "The operation not only checked tons of drugs, but also [-] iPhones that just arrived in Mexico by plane."

Zhou Qingfeng frowned, "I remember that all the goods we export to South America are paid in advance, right? This seizure should have no loss to 'Holy Light'."

Yilan laughed even harder, "I don't know if it counts as a loss. Anyway, the lawyers of the drug cartel complained to the Mexican anti-narcotics department afterwards, saying that the police can seize the drugs, but the iPhone is completely legal and should be returned to the owner."

Zhou Qingfeng was dumbfounded, thinking that there is still this matter?

For Mexican drug dealers, the cost of drugs is very low, and it doesn't matter if they lose tens of tons or hundreds of tons, since they can be reproduced anyway.But the [-] iPhones that were airlifted from China were paid for in real money, and we cannot afford to lose them.

Yilan continued to laugh and said, "This matter has already been published in the newspapers, and it has been widely spread in Mexico. Everyone thinks that the drug cartel's request is very reasonable.

However, the U.S. side stated that these iPhones are the illegal assets of drug traffickers and there is a risk of being smuggled into the U.S., so they must be confiscated.According to unconfirmed information, the U.S.-Mexico anti-narcotics police decided to split the batch of iPhones equally as compensation for the actions of both parties. "

Zhou Qingfeng was even more stunned, "This is an official robbery. Are Yankees poor and crazy?"

Elan couldn't help laughing, "Now the iPhone's reputation in the industry is rapidly improving, which has also led to the formation of a black market in many places. Its price in the United States has been fired to $[-], and it is often not available.

I just heard the news that some representative offices of American companies in China have asked us to purchase US-version iPhones, and they have purchased hundreds or thousands of units. "

"smuggling?"

"No, maybe it's because the reputation is too strong, and their insiders want it."

Zhou Qingfeng couldn't laugh or cry, he just listened to a joke.But this is not the most outrageous thing. Not long after, Xiao Jinlang called and said that the government department planned to order 100 million iPhones.

"100 million? You can't eat this phone, why do you want so much?"

"The government will issue customized mobile phones to civil servants, don't you know?" Lao Xiao sighed on the phone: "I thought that it would be better to make my own people cheaper than other people's, so I brought this order over."

Speaking of the government issuing mobile phones, it is really a common practice in China, because there have been more than one leaks caused by the use of foreign mobile phones in the past.

Some important cadres even placed their mobile phones outside the meeting venue, and the mobile phone automatically recorded and transmitted information, which led to cases of leaking secrets.In the end, I had to remove the battery to solve the problem.

This doesn't just happen in China, it happens all over the world.Yankees are so fond of playing tricks like this, they even have to tap German Chancellor Angela Merkel's mobile phone.

This forced the domestic government to distribute mobile phones to public servants, and also distributed a kind of welfare at that time.Some civil servants have seven or eight mobile phones, all issued by the government.

This government order is too popular. For example, "American Emperor Conscience" eats computer orders from government agencies, and his mouth is full of oil.Now it is the turn of 'Holy Light' to take advantage of this and enter the government procurement supply chain.

With so many domestic civil servants, 100 million units is definitely just a start, and similar orders will follow.

"However, you can't randomly install apps on the mobile phone for civil servants. There are strict restrictions." Xiao Jinlang warned on the phone, "I will arrange people from Guoan to contact you."

"No problem, isn't it just to customize the operating system, I understand." As long as Zhou Qingfeng can sell mobile phones, he will be sure of it.

"But we also need some normal mobile phones, about tens of thousands."

"Who is this for?"

"For gift giving, such as diplomatic gifts."

"Diplomatic officials from other countries will accept it?"

"Whether other countries accept it or not is their business. We donate our own high-tech achievements, which is very face-saving and useful for establishing the country's image.

In addition, major countries will take precautions, but small countries don't care about the number of diplomats.They are happy to use it.This is also an advertising campaign. "

That's right, small countries often choose traditional handicrafts as gifts in international exchanges, but what big countries send out is to show their strength, and the iPhone is a very good gift.

Hey... This occupies a commanding height of technology, and money will come naturally.

By the end of February, the appearance of the iPhone caused a wave of excitement in the international personal electronics industry. 'Holy Light' has sold 2 million units at home and abroad one after another.

Working at full capacity in the industrial park in Zhengzhou, working in three shifts for two consecutive months to supply the world's needs - Zhou Qingfeng waved his hand and doubled the salary of the 10,000+ front-line workers in the industrial park for the month as a reward.

The Forbes Global Rich List made a special topic on this wealth creation movement, announcing that the personal wealth of Mr. Zhou Qingfeng, the world's richest man, has reached the point where it is difficult for the outside world to figure out.

Even if Europe and the United States impose the most severe sanctions on him, this cannot prevent him from earning excess profits in the Western market.The entire semiconductor industry in China has benefited from this.

Forbes even listed a list of [-] companies in the iPhone supply chain.All the companies listed above, as long as they are listed companies, their stock prices soared immediately, and they were sought after by investment banks.

However, as the core of the "Holy Light", there is no movement to go public, even though the Hong Kong Stock Exchange has repeatedly hinted that it can accommodate this super giant company in the most tolerant manner.

There are even rumors on Wall Street that if 'Holy Light' is listed in the United States, it may be the best way to lift its sanctions.

The members of the Congress also found that sanctioning 'Holy Light' had no effect, but Zhou Qingfeng lowered his profile and begged us to lift the sanctions.If he doesn't come to beg, the U.S. side will not be able to show that face if they want to lift the sanctions.

Many international investment banks want to do the IPO work for 'Shengguang', and it is estimated that this company will have a terrible siphon effect if it really goes public.

Its market value is by no means the current more than 1000 billion U.S. dollars, and the assets of the president of 'Holy Light' can easily double.

But Zhou Qingfeng always laughed at the news in this regard.No matter what reporter came to ask, he always asked the other party: "As the master of the 'Holy Light', I am not short of money, so why should I distribute power and benefits to the enemy?"

This is true, 'Holy Light' is not short of money.

In the official announcement of last year's economic data at the beginning of the year, the 'Shengguang' who started long ahead of schedule followed the 'national team' to grab food and blew up five or six international speculative funds in Hong Kong's stock and foreign exchange markets.

International hot money discovered at the beginning of January that the Chinese economy did not encounter the expected setbacks. They failed to sell short, and instead tried their best to escape, there was a stampede effect.

'Holy Light' didn't have to do anything, but earned billions of dollars, and basically doubled the money it lost in China in 2002.

Domestic banks found that 'Shengguang' smartphones were selling very well, and they had already received a new loan, so they were looking forward to President Zhou's loan—the interest rate was very low, so they almost gave it away for nothing.

When Zhou Qingfeng had no idea of ​​making money, his North Korean father-in-law Cui Yongzhu called him-the Iraqi air defense forces have shot down many unmanned surveillance planes in succession recently.

According to the dismantling of the wreckage of the drones, it was determined that these drones belonged to the Israel Defense Forces, but it is not known how they flew to Iraq for reconnaissance.

Regardless of the father-in-law, Zhou Qingfeng almost forgot the secret he had planted in the Middle East—North Korea has always had military cooperation with Iran, and this time it is very familiar with the cooperation with Iraq.

In the past six months, North Korea has earned more than a billion dollars by strengthening its military force and cleaning its internal affairs for Saddam Hussein.Saddam also filled his own dwindling coffers by exporting oil to China via Iran.

But it's strange that this has brought Israel out.

Cui Yongzhu sent a special envoy to inform the Chinese side that after all, China's big brother is the biggest backing for him to make money in the Middle East.

The specific situation is that North Korean military workers used the electronic devices provided by China to update the Soviet-made anti-aircraft missiles that were completely eliminated in Iraq, and re-networked them to complete the digital transformation.

After this air defense network was upgraded, Saddam Hussein was no longer completely beaten in the face of Western air strikes, and he had certain detection and counterattack capabilities.

After all, air defense mainly depends on radar, which is to emit and receive electromagnetic waves.Good back-end signal processing can greatly enhance its combat capability, so that it will not be blinded by a little interference.

The result is the improved Sam-2 missile, which has shot down various Israeli drones such as 'Heron' and 'Pioneer' in the past three days.

Since it was North Korean soldiers who actually operated the air defense network, the news came back quickly.They reported a lot of tactical details and made a judgment-the Israeli drone was obviously testing Iraq's air defense network and collecting radar operating frequencies.

This was an unusual move, as such blatant reconnaissance is usually done before an attack is launched.The Iraqi government has lodged a protest with Israel, but the other party neither finds a reason to say that it was lost, nor denies that it was done by itself.

Things are going wrong.

On the other side of the globe, Savile, the leader of the 'European Will', was 'invited' to Washington.The pale middle-aged man took out a sieve from his pocket and put it in front of Marco Shi, the leader of the 'Brotherhood'.

"I will only lend you this sieve for your use, don't expect me to give up its ownership." Saville ignored the wolf-like members of the 'Brotherhood' around him, and raised his head proudly.

Marco waved his hand, and Thomas, who was his entourage, stepped forward and punched Savelli hard.He even looked at the corner of the other party's bleeding mouth, stretched out his hand to grab the space-time dice on the table, and said coldly, "You have no right to speak like that in front of me."

At this moment, a frenzied female voice came into the minds of all the candidates present, "Marco, what do you want to do? Don't force me to use nuclear bombs to destroy the world."

Marco ignored the crazy woman's cries.He grabbed the time-space dice, handed it to another selected person beside him, and ordered: "Let's do a test and see how this thing works?"

Saveli, who was bleeding from the corner of his mouth, spit out two teeth from his mouth, and cursed fiercely: "Don't think that this thing is easy to use. The former leader of the 'European Will' died in the hands of this thing. If you are not careful, you will Lose your own life."

But the chosen one who received the time-space dice ignored it, and instead made a wish on the time-space dice: "In the name of the Jews, I hope that the territory of Israel will be doubled."

The space-time dice landed on the table and began to spin slowly...

Chapter 28 Proxy War

The time-space dice stopped after spinning on the table for a few seconds, projecting a virtual screen.

Loaned by Savile and authorized by the Supreme Law of Time and Space, the chosen Jewish members of the 'Brotherhood' made a wish to double the territory of Israel.

The corresponding dungeon task is displayed on the virtual screen—restart World War II, the Jews independently established Israel, and defeated the Axis Powers.

Just kidding!

If the Jews had this ability, they would not have been sent to concentration camps by the head of state to make soap.

The Jewish candidate who made the wish turned pale immediately, and the zero-level space-time ring he used to make the wish disappeared.As long as you click to confirm, the 'Brotherhood' will be involved in the tragic war.

"Cancel." Marco was anxious, rushing to reject the dungeon mission.

Saville sat a few meters away, hehe taunted: "If you use a more advanced space-time ring, you can reduce the difficulty of the task."

Turning on the space-time dice is not free, it needs to consume a space-time ring.The higher the level of time and space ring consumed, the lower the difficulty of the dungeon mission.

But each space-time ring corresponds to the life of a chosen one.

At the beginning, Zhou Qingfeng was able to select 'Chao Zhan' from a bunch of missions, it was only by massacring the 'Brotherhood' candidates twice in the early stage that he got enough space-time rings.

The extra space-time ring on Marco's hand was obtained from hunting the wandering chosen ones.But compared to the elite legacy of the 'Brotherhood', the Wandering Chosen are mostly level zero.

The high-ranking elect are promoted through a series of trials and tribulations.Even Father Clark, who was killed by Marcos, had to work hard to get to the position back then, and he gradually became corrupt as time went by.

Another example is Zhou Qingfeng, who only raised his level to level [-] after finishing the copy of "Chao Zhan".

Mar Keshi himself was lucky enough to be in the position but it was difficult to convince the crowd, because his level was not as good as Zhou Qingfeng's.There were quite a few 'fraternity' elders who felt qualified to replace him.

Wasted a space-time ring, the wishing Jewish chosen turned his head to look at Marco.

Saville on the opposite side was 'invited' by force. After being punched by Thomas, his mouth was bleeding and he continued to taunt, "You should make a more precise wish limit, otherwise the task difficulty will not be reduced."

As for how to make a wish accurately, Savelli didn't say.He just stared at Marco Shi and smiled, waiting for the other party to beg him.

Marcoshi didn't ask for it, but instead negotiated with his own people, and obtained an acceptable dungeon mission after consuming several space-time rings.What exactly they want, they have already planned.

At this moment, Zhou Qingfeng is in Zhongnanhai, the imperial capital, listening to the North Korean special envoy's report to the domestic military and political leaders.North Korean officers in People's Army uniforms point out several locations on a wide-format projector.

"Limited by the no-fly zone set up by the British and American coalition forces in the north and south of Iraq, Saddam's air defense forces do not have much room to expand.

The area that has recently been heavily investigated by Israeli drones is Fallujah, where we have deployed long-range surveillance radars. "

The North Korean military officer first explained the current situation, and then focused on describing the current situation of the Saddam regime.

"Saddam's government is full of loopholes, and it is difficult to find people who are completely loyal to the country. They still retain a lot of traces of the tribal system in their thinking, and they prioritize loyalty to the tribe, then the ethnic group, and then the sect and the country.

Our political personnel have found a large number of spies in Saddam's regime. In the past six months, we have compiled a suspicious list of more than 2 people, and arrested more than 1000 of them who have conclusive evidence of treason.

The socialist state theory does not apply in Iraq, and it will take at least 20 years to transform such a state.We have no good way to do this, we can only restrain the guys who colluded with the United States.

The only good news is that Saddam has a lot of confidence in us.He believes that the North Korean friends who can be sent to Iraq are enemies of the United States, absolutely reliable, and will not betray him.

In fact, more than 2000 positions in his government and military are filled by our people.In terms of work efficiency and safety, it is far better than the Iraqis. "

All the military and political leaders were present, Zhou Qingfeng just sat in the corner and listened silently, without the right to speak.As he pondered what would happen to the Middle East, a voice rang in his head.

"Compulsory task-disputes among small countries."

"Israel will launch an attack on Iraq under the pretext of 'eliminating weapons of mass destruction'."

"The criterion for winning or losing is whether Saddam's regime can last for 25 days. If Israel wins, it will obtain a certain territory from Palestine as a reward."

"The war will start in a week. External powers cannot intervene directly, but they can provide indirect military assistance of no more than $50 billion during the preparation period."

A series of descriptions confused Zhou Qingfeng.It is obvious that someone selected used the time-space dice, but Israel is fighting Iraq, why should he be notified?
