Silicon Valley

After a week, Henry successfully acquired 21 mining companies in South Africa with a total capital of 35 billion US dollars. This mining acquisition that swept South Africa shocked the world. You must know that the original Williams Mining Company owned many mines in Australia and around the world, and was already the largest mining company in the world. But now it has acquired so many mining companies in South Africa, almost monopolizing more than 25% of the world's mineral resources! There are countless large and small mining companies all over the world. Just one small coal boss in China is extremely wealthy, buying luxury houses, driving luxury cars, and spending money like water... However, the mineral resources of tens of thousands of such coal bosses are all Added up, it is not as strong as Williams Mining Company!

After the news spread to Japan, it immediately caused great panic to the Japanese steel companies, because they knew that Henry would not sell them the minerals, and other mining companies would only take advantage of the fire to blackmail them. Of course, Japanese steel companies also want to buy some mines. Unfortunately, they have only experienced the Japanese economic crisis not long ago, so there is not enough money to buy mines. Even if you buy some, it's just a drop in the bucket. Japan has a small land area and lack of resources, and its mineral resources basically have to be purchased from outsiders. However, their steel industry is particularly developed and has a huge scale. According to statistics, Japan's steel exports account for more than 1/3 of the world's total, and it is the world's largest steel exporter. This shows how big Japan's demand for mineral resources is!

At the beginning, Japan bullied China's industrial backwardness, so it got a lot of minerals from China at extremely cheap cabbage prices. But China has developed rapidly, and its own demand for minerals is increasing, and it even has to buy a lot of minerals from the outside world every year. In this case, how is it possible for China to sell a large amount of minerals to Japan? Therefore, Japan can only buy minerals from Australia. However, they never expected that Henry suddenly entered the Australian mineral market, and then launched a stormy acquisition, occupying more than 60% of Australia's mineral resources in an instant!

Japan was immediately stunned, looking around in a daze!

Right now, only Russia is the closest to Japan and is willing to sell them minerals. However, although Russia is rich in mineral resources, the quality of iron ore is far behind Australia, Brazil and other major iron ore producing countries. In the current market, the low-end steel market with relatively low profits has been gradually occupied by Chinese steel companies, while Japanese steel companies focus on the mid-to-high-end market, so they have high requirements for the quality of iron ore.

There is a saying that it is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice.

No matter how powerful the technology of Japanese steel companies is, it is useless if they do not have good materials.

Compared with the tragic situation in Japan, Madagascar is so cool!

After opening the world map, you can see that Madagascar is "left to South Africa, right to Australia, and there is no need to worry about ore", which makes people very envious and jealous...

By April 2003, Iraq and the British and American coalition forces had reached a stalemate. Karina and the others had arrived in Madagascar at this moment, and Henry had no worries, so he ordered Heishui to prepare for the Madagascar independence referendum. At the same time, Henry also accelerated the pace of deployment in South Africa.

On April 12, Henry fully acquired Standard Bank for $20 billion.

The next day, Henry bought MTN telecommunications company wholly for $26.5 billion.

Subsequently, the two companies are preparing to delist from the stock market.

On the day of the acquisition of MTN, Henry held a press conference, announcing that he had acquired MTN, and announcing that the telecommunications companies under his name would start building 4G networks and replace 4G-SIMs for the company's users for free. Card.

Just ten minutes after the end of the press conference, Williams Telecom, Oi Brazil, O2 UK, Bharti Telecom India, MTN South Africa, and Hong Kong Telecom announced successively that they would provide users with free 4G-SIM card replacements. Serve.

Watching telecom companies announce the construction of 4G networks and upgrade users to 4G mobile phone cards for free, other telecom companies are all anxious.

At present, most countries still have 2G networks, and 3G networks have just started in developed countries. Once 4G comes out, how will other telecom companies compete? If mobile phone users need to charge a high fee to replace the 4G-SIM card, it’s okay, but you are free, so what should other telecom companies do? In order not to lose its own users, isn't this forcing itself to build a 4G network?

Grass mud horse! Henry Williams is too fucking pit!

Countless telecom companies are scolding ~ mother, but it doesn't work. In the end, many telecom companies have to bite the bullet and build 4G networks.

Telecom giants such as AT\u0026amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;t; Then, more and more telecom companies participated in the construction of 4G network.

Henry only knows that the current mature 4G network technology is only Qualcomm. To build a 4G network, these telecommunications companies all have to pay for themselves, and the number of users is so large that it directly formed the 4G network standard. The formation of standards is tantamount to building a huge patent barrier, which makes competitors who study 4G network technology stillborn! The market is already occupied by others, who would foolishly avoid the layers of patent barriers of Qualcomm's 4G network at this time, and spend huge manpower and material resources to develop a similar 4G network, what is the use of this? When bypassing patents and developing a 4G network, not only will there be no market, but other people's 5G networks will come out again.

It didn't take long for the world's major mobile phone manufacturers to place orders with Qualcomm to purchase mobile phone communication chips to develop 4G mobile phones. Obviously, this will be a huge amount of income.

Therefore, although Henry bought many telecommunications companies, he made a lot of profits in the blink of an eye, and even monopolized the market. His future profits will definitely be astonishingly high!

At present, the construction of 4G network cannot be accomplished at one touch, and it is not economical to cover most areas within a year. Therefore, the first is to start from the big cities with developed economy, and gradually cover the rural areas with the network in the future.

Henry's investment in South Africa is so large that South Africa has been on the headlines of the world's major media. For a while, it has attracted the attention of many investors. In the past two days alone, there are no less than a thousand investment teams visiting South Africa than before. President Gary Tennyson was naturally overjoyed. He wanted to stay with Henry for a few more days, but Henry had already decided to go to Madagascar. However, in less than three days, the news that Henry will establish a country in Madagascar will spread. At that time, South African President Gary Tennyson will definitely be stunned in shock!

Madagascar is just a few hours away by plane from South Africa.

Henry came to Madagascar again this time. He didn't come here as a guest, but ruled the world! ! !

At this moment, at the airport of the capital of Madagascar, more than a thousand Blackwater members waited in line, the whole scene was spectacular and solemn!

At 11:40 am on April 18, Henry's private plane landed at the capital airport of Madagascar.

"stand at attention!!!"

"salute!!!"

As soon as Henry got off the plane, an officer shouted loudly. Immediately, thousands of Blackwater members stood in uniform and saluted Henry! That guy, some tourists in the distance were stunned!

Henry nodded to everyone very satisfied, then got into his car and left the airport under the escort of everyone.

The capital of Madagascar is called Antananarivo, and 20 kilometers north of Antananarivo is the only oldest and relatively complete royal palace in Madagascar, the Royal Blue Mountain Palace. It's just that the Royal Blue Mountain Palace built by the indigenous people of Madagascar can't be worthy of Henry's distinguished status. There is no doubt that Henry wants to build his own palace-Williams Royal Palace!

Henry had already sent his Winsom Architectural Design Office to Madagascar to conduct a comprehensive investigation and design work, not only his own royal palace, but also the planning and construction of Madagascar's cities. Cities in Madagascar basically have to be demolished and rebuilt. Even if they want to stay, they only need to leave some distinctive and historical buildings. Of course, such a large design work cannot be done by Winsom alone. It’s just that Henry hasn’t founded the country yet. If he blatantly hires a large number of architectural design firms to design Madagascar, I’m afraid it will become “Sima Zhaozhi’s heart is known to everyone.” Henry wants to learn from Zhao Kuangyin, saying in his heart, I don’t want to be the emperor’s , but being "added in yellow robes" by my subordinates, I can't help it! ! ! !

If it is after the founding of the People's Republic of China, it is understandable to hire an architectural design firm!

At this moment, Kailinna and the others are living in the Royal Blue Mountain Palace, which has been refurbished, otherwise, it would be impossible to live there.

At noon, Henry arrived at the Royal Blue Mountain Palace and reunited with Kailina, Helen, Princess Ulysses, Caesar and Diana.

"Are you used to living here? If you are not used to living here, move to a modern hotel first. In addition, I have asked winsom to start designing our own palace, and we will move to live in our own palace in the future!"

"It's okay to live here. The scenery here is beautiful and the architecture is very distinctive." Kailinna smiled.

The Royal Blue Mountain Palace is a wooden structure built on a stone platform. After the vicissitudes of life, many buildings are dilapidated. Compared with Williams Manor, one is in the sky and the other is underground. Henry naturally knew that letting them live here made them feel wronged. Henry thought to himself, who said that one must live in this dilapidated palace to be a king? How comfortable it is to live in a private villa before your own palace is built! Madagascar is poor, but it does not mean that there are no rich people and no private villas. During the outbreak of civil strife in Madagascar, Henry ordered people to reclaim these villas and a large amount of land. Henry himself doesn’t know exactly how many villas he has collected, but there are many, many…
