Chapter 278

Henry formally initiated the acquisition request to Sikorsky company. He had his own professional team responsible for how to negotiate.

By this time, "Toy Story" has been painted in the United States, and has won $265 million at the box office.

The box office performance is much higher than that of previous generations. On the one hand, it benefits from three months of publicity, and on the other hand, it has a large number of films.

The U.S. box office is usually a weathervane. The higher the box office, the more popular it is with other countries.

Subsequently, "Toy Story" has been released around the world, set off a wave of film viewing boom.

Hundreds of companies around the world have found Pixar Animation Studio to seek cooperation and get authorization. In order to expand its influence, Pixar naturally likes to see and hear. As long as the other company is powerful, anyone who comes will be welcome!

Galaxy film company established Galaxy film peripheral management company, which is specially responsible for the peripheral products and production business of film licensing. It also has its own production companies under the galaxy film peripheral management company, the most important of which are: Galaxy toys company, Galaxy clothing company, Galaxy Books and video company, Galaxy daily necessities company, etc. But more is to invest some funds to support third-party manufacturers, so that it becomes a relatively stable strategic partner of Galaxy film system!

All the glory and all the loss!

Only when Galaxy film company develops well can they make more money. And Galaxy film can use their power to promote the film offline. A wide range of products, ranging from computers and cars to toothbrushes and Keyrings, will surely attract people's attention and increase the popularity of films when they are put on the market.

After the success of toy story, Pixar Animation Studio expanded its staff to 2000 and produced two animated films at the same time.

The first is Toy Story 2, and the second is bug crisis.

Among these 2000 people, more than 1500 are reserved talents. After a period of training and learning, more than half of them will be transferred to the TV animation production department of Galaxy film company to make TV cartoons.

The value derived from a classic TV animation is sometimes more profitable than an animated film, and because of the particularity of the media, TV animation is easier to form super IP.

Whether it's animated films or TV cartoons, we should grasp both hands and be hard at both hands!

After Clinton took office, he immediately carried out the policy of rapid development of information, and the government provided funds or preferential policies to help the company build infrastructure.

CommScope fiber company has made a breakthrough in the development of digital synchronous SDH technology, which makes the new generation fiber speed up to 10gbs.

Before that, the fastest record was only in 1992, when Bell Labs and its Japanese partners worked together to successfully test 5gbs.

CommScope fiber is a clear winner!

When CommScope fiber announced its development results, it immediately caused an uproar in the industry.

At present, only 2.5gbs optical fiber is generally used, and the transmission speed is slow. As a result, users can only get 56kbps broadband.

When the optical fiber speed is increased to 10gbs, the user's broadband can be doubled at least. If you have money, you can open up four times the original broadband.

Williams Telecom took the lead in using the SDH fiber of CommScope fiber company, preparing to replace the original fiber and upgrade the whole network!

Williams Telecom is shouting the slogan: "high speed network, unimpeded, give you the general feeling of flying - Williams Telecom, 2m broadband era!"

1m broadband is 112kbps, and 2m broadband is about 224kbps.

It's as fast as flying!

When other telecom companies are still 56 Kbps, while Williams Telecom is 224 Kbps, the gap widens instantly!

Williams Telecom adjusted the price of Internet access immediately.

56kbps Internet access cost reduction, originally 1000 dollars a year, now only 800 dollars a year!

112kbps Internet access costs $1000 a year.

224kbps Internet access costs $1200 a year.

This price almost makes other telecom companies feel depressed to vomit blood. Nima's own 56kbps and Williams Telecom's 112kbps fees are actually the same. Who is willing to open Internet services in his own company?

At this time, Clinton put forward the policy of high-speed development of information highway, and the number of Internet users in the United States is increasing day by day.

As for which telecom company to choose, it goes without saying.

Other telecom companies are forced to cut prices to $750.

At the same time, many telecom companies jointly sued Williams Telecom for monopoly.

Williams Telecom said innocently: "as SDH fiber is the latest product developed by CommScope fiber company, the production capacity is seriously insufficient, and it has been very reluctant just to provide it to Williams Telecom. Alas, it's not that we want to monopolize, it's really that we are short of production capacity... Of course, we have been working hard to improve production capacity. I believe that before long, other telecom companies will also be able to use CommScope SDH fiber! "

This is a set of words from Williams Telecom to the outside world. Internally, this is what it said to CommScope fiber: "don't worry, everything is in order. You can develop as you like..."

The longer the delay, the more customers Williams Telecom grabs.

In February, everything is fine.

Every company is developing very well. Williams electronics has developed a new product Palm handheld computer, which can snipe Apple's Apple Newton handheld computer and destroy Apple's efforts for several years.

Apple's Apple Newton is about to be released.

Therefore, palm palmtop must be ahead of others.

Soon, Williams electronics held a product launch, officially announced the Palm handheld computer.

Apple saw the news, immediately dumbfounded, Williams electronics and it actually developed a very similar product.

It doesn't matter. The point is that the palm is only $299. How can apple be embarrassed?

Apple Newton costs more than $299 to make

Apple has been crying in the toilet!

When it came out that apple and Williams developed the same type of products, but the price was $1000!

As a result, Apple's share price plummeted.

Apple hastened to issue a statement: "palm palmtop is a low-end product, while Apple Newton palmtop is a high-end product. The difference between the two has little impact! We believe that after Apple Newton goes public, it will sell well! "

At this time, Williams electronics has put the palm PDA to the Williams electronics store for sale, which can also be purchased through Amazon and eBay.

Palm handheld computer is light and portable, with simple and practical functions. Once it is launched, it is loved by business people.

We sold 100000 units in the first month.

The release of this data surprised apple.

How can palm sell so well?! Apple Newton is expensive, but it's not much worse. So, he ordered the factory to produce Apple Newton, and the order was, the more the better!

An apple spokesman told the media: "the palm palmtop is selling well, and our Apple Newton palmtop will only be even more popular!"

Apple Newton has developed a lot of functions, such as touch screen, infrared ray, handwriting input (and even support cursive writing), and so on. It also has a variety of software to help manage personal data, such as notes, names, dates, and other small tools, such as computers, conversion programs, time zone maps, and so on, It can explode Palm handheld computer, there's no reason Apple Newton can't sell it!!!

Apple's share price rose rapidly.

Many newspapers reported: "apple is going to rise up!"

On April 1, apple officially released Apple Newton.

At the product press conference, there were a lot of media reporters.

Apple Newton also sold more than 4000 units on the same day, which was gratifying. After all, the price is expensive. We can't take a cheaper route like palm. It's normal to have a smaller quantity.

As a result, the reporter rushed to draft that night and vigorously advocated that Apple giant stood up again.

The next morning, the newspaper was out.

The next day, however, Apple Newton sold less than 1000 units, which made a lot of newspapers look bad.

On the third day, Apple Newton's sales dropped again to 500.

Media reporters, you know, Apple Newton is finished, it can't be sold, only about 100!

At the beginning, so many people came to buy Apple Newton, mostly Apple fans or curious, but the high price stopped most people.

Although Apple Newton has many functions, it's not very useful. It's much cheaper to buy a palm than Apple Newton.

Palm is still a big seller, while Apple Newton's sales are pitifully low, less than 100

Apple this building suddenly collapsed, the stock price crazy fall!
