Chapter 640

At the end of May 2007, according to incomplete statistics, VR industry has attracted 3500 enterprises from all over the world. Banks are also optimistic about this industry, with total loans of no less than 50 billion US dollars. But in Henry's view, the threshold of VR is actually very high, involving a lot of technologies. Enterprises need to pay a high cost to create a high-quality experience, and also need to master huge resources, such as user resources, movies, games and other content resources, which are by no means affordable to ordinary small companies. What's more, there is fierce competition from high-tech companies such as yadali, Microsoft, Google, IBM and Samsung. It's not hard to imagine that most VR companies will become cannon fodder in the end!!!

Also, the US subprime mortgage crisis has broken out. It is not a good time to enter the VR industry at this moment! At this time, the bank is also a mud Bodhisattva. It's hard to protect itself by crossing the river. Lending to other enterprises is tantamount to accelerating its own death! The outbreak of the subprime mortgage crisis in the United States is caused by the defects in the design of the subprime mortgage product system and the imperfection of the government regulatory system, which is an inevitable event!

Since February 2007, HSBC announced that the North American housing loan mortgage business suffered huge losses and wrote down $10.8 billion of related assets, thus the subprime mortgage crisis began. In April 2007, new century finance, the second largest subprime mortgage company in the United States, filed for bankruptcy protection because of its inability to pay its debts, and laid off more than 50% of its employees. Of course, at this time, people are still not aware of the advent of the subprime crisis, just think that individual companies are mismanaged. The popularity of VR has attracted the attention of the media and the public, which makes the subprime mortgage crisis not attract people's attention.

Henry has already let his company make targeted adjustments to tide over the financial crisis!

Willett, who is in charge of Williams Royal Investment Company, has already spent a huge sum of $1 trillion to short the U.S. stock market and real estate market. In addition, it also spent $2.5 trillion to short the stock markets of more than 100 countries and regions, including Canada, Singapore, Japan, South Korea and Europe.

At this time, in fact, Henry is not the only one. There is a fund manager named John Paulson in the United States, who is also madly short the U.S. stock market and real estate. Now, he's just a junior on Wall Street. His company, Paulson & Co., has 60 employees and manages a billion dollar hedge fund. In his previous life, he made $3.7 billion in 2007 alone, becoming the best fund manager of that year!!!

Since then, the name of "John Paulson" has been worshipped by Wall Street, and the titles of "God of making money" and "first person of hedge fund" have been hung on his head; Soros, a financial tycoon, invited him to dinner; Even because of his existence, even U.S. Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson has been wrongly called "another Paulson" to show the difference!!!

John Paulson, who is in charge of a billion dollar fund, is revered. If Wall Street knew that Henry had taken 1 trillion US dollars to short the US stock market and real estate, what should he be called?!

King of the gods?!

However, Henry did not dare to let people know that he was shorting the U.S. financial market, which is tantamount to casting salt on the wounds of the Americans, leading to a more dire economic situation in the United States than in previous lives.

Williams Royal Investment Company secretly controls many fund institutions and shortens the US market in the name of these funds. It is not easy to be suspected of its own head. And even if the U.S. knew that Williams Royal Investment Company was short of the U.S. market, it could not understand the specific situation.

In order to paralyze the United States and make the subprime mortgage crisis more serious, Henry began to create gimmicks again.

On June 1, Williams super energy held a product launch and released the graphene LED bulb!

This press conference is really a wave.

Graphene LED bulb is 40% - 50% energy saving than incandescent lamp, 10% - 20% energy saving than traditional LED, the maximum service life is up to 10 years! But the price, only 15 Wei Yuan! The price is not expensive at all. Now who can't afford to buy 15 Wei Yuan?

Marcy Kelvin, spokesman for Williams super energy, said: "Dear media friends and viewers watching the live broadcast of the conference, do you know how much electricity can be saved a year if graphene LED bulbs are replaced all over the world?"

The crowd murmured.

Marcy Kelvin said in a high voice: "according to our statistics, it can save at least 100 billion kilowatt hours, which is equivalent to all the electricity consumption of the earth in two days!"!!! If according to the international standard coal power generation to calculate, can reduce more than 12 million tons of coal combustion quantity!!! Not only save coal resources, but also greatly reduce the pollution of the environment! Therefore, whether from the perspective of economic benefits or environmental protection, graphene LED bulbs are the best choice! Besides... "

Marcy Kelvin pauses and presses the controller. At this time, another thing appeared on the LCD screen of the press conference - socket.

People can't help but feel astonished, eh, isn't this the socket? Is Williams super energy even involved in sockets?

Yes, it is.

Marcy Kelvin said with a smile, "it's a socket, but it's not a normal socket. This is our company's special development of intelligent switch socket - Online socket, with a three hole switch socket! As we all know, many families already have a robot Eve. Although Eve can control the smart home devices in the home, there is no smart home in the user's home. But now, with the online outlet, it can connect to Eve. When you're lying in bed ready to go to bed, you don't need to get out of bed to turn off the light, just give Eve an order. In addition, we have also developed the corresponding mobile app software, which can also connect to the online socket by using the smart phone! "

After listening to them, everyone felt that online socket is really a good idea! Technically, the task of online socket is to control "on" and "off", which is not difficult. With online installed at home, many appliances have become smart appliances. It's not only convenient, but also cool!

The reporter couldn't help asking, "Mr. Marcy Kelvin, how much is an online socket?"

"It's not very expensive, just 90 Wei Yuan!" Marcy Kelvin replied with a smile, "but we're going to have a combo package. There is a switch and three hole socket on the online socket, so an online socket can control two kinds of household appliances, one can be a light bulb, the other can be an air conditioner and so on. Therefore, our combination package is 1 graphene LED bulb + 1 online socket, a total of only 100 Wei Yuan, a discount of 5 Wei Yuan! "

Spend 100 Wei Yuan to buy socket and light bulb, it's a little expensive, but there are two "smart home" in the house, it's also quite cost-effective!
