Silicon Valley

The Williams Charitable Foundation and the Williams Family Foundation have been established successively, and everything has begun to go on the right track.

Princess Ulysses manages the charitable fund, and it is really well organized.

With her, she often brushes the fame for Henry, and the effect is excellent. Henry doesn't have to worry about someone saying that he is rich and unkind and doesn't know how to do charity. Because Ulysses was still a princess, it attracted the attention of the media and made those who were helped to be grateful to her and Henry! To give a very simple example, an ordinary person helps you and the president of the country helps you, who would you be more grateful to?

1998 has passed.

The financial statements of the major companies under Henry's name have also come out.

His personal finance team sorted it out and emailed him.

This year, many companies suffered losses, some because of excessive investment, such as SpaceX, Alpha Robotics, Super Energy, Super Materials, etc., and some companies were affected by the bursting of the Internet bubble, such as Facebook, YouTube and many other Internet companies. Still, other companies make more money.

Apple has performed well. Despite the downturn in the Internet market, its products such as iMac, ipod, and iBook are still selling well. In addition to iTunes, the sales are as high as 35 billion US dollars, and the profit exceeds 8 billion US dollars!

And Cisco's sales have been declining since the dotcom bubble burst. This year's sales are only $40 billion, and its profit is less than $6 billion.

Williams Electronics was affected by the Internet and the Asian financial crisis, and the sales of electronic components were slow, resulting in a lot of losses. But fortunately, Williams mobile phones are still selling well, with Nokia mobile phones and Motorola mobile phones becoming the three most popular mobile phones in the world. In addition, Williams pagers are sold in China, South America, and Africa, and they also make a lot of money. Total sales were up to $78 billion and earnings were $12 billion.

More and more people are using mobile phones. Not only are mobile phone manufacturers making money, but Qualcomm, as the holder of the CDMA patent, also develops its own cmda chips, which naturally makes a big profit, with a profit of 7 billion US dollars. Qualcomm, which has huge capital, is actively developing 3G technology, investing billions of dollars each year, accounting for 60-80% of its earnings. For Qualcomm, Henry does not ask for dividends at all, and all the money is used to develop technology, develop 3G as soon as possible, and then develop 4G networks.

It's cool to be able to surf the Internet smoothly at any time with a mobile phone. At that time, the live broadcast of the mobile phone or something will be a big piece of cake!

The industry related to mobile phones also includes mobile phone systems. More than half of the new mobile phones in the world are using the Saipan system, and more and more mobile phone manufacturers have joined the camp of the Saipan system. Nokia was originally a shareholder of Symbian Systems. As ambitious as he was, he actually wanted to acquire Symbian Systems. He acquired 15% of the shares from Samsung, and his shareholding reached 35%, becoming the largest shareholder. Williams Electronics has only a 25% stake. Nokia non-stop, launched the acquisition to the management of Saipan Systems, but fortunately Williams Electronics interfered, which was unsuccessful. Symbian management was "on both sides" between Nokia and Williams Electronics, which made Henry very uncomfortable. If it wasn't for the fact that Apple's ios system had not been developed, Henry would have let Williams Electronics sell the Symbian system!

Because the ios system relies on hardware, the ios system cannot be completed before the multi-touch display comes out.

At present, although Immersion and Williams Electronics jointly developed a multi-touch technology display screen, they have not succeeded, but they have accumulated a lot of technologies. These technologies have been applied for patents, which can kill other mobile phone manufacturers in the future. In addition, the design of Apple's mobile phone has been patented by Henry. These days, there are too many patent hooligans. Some companies draw a picture at random, and then apply for a patent. As far as Henry knows, the shape patent of Apple's mobile phone has been sued by many patent troll companies, and it's annoying!

In 1998, C-Cube became a company that attracted worldwide attention. In February 1998, the DVD technology was developed, and the DVD standard was soon formed by cooperating with a number of international companies! The DVD player was subsequently developed. Once the product was launched, it was very popular and quickly replaced VCDs and video recorders in Europe and America, almost sweeping the industry, shocking the industry. Sales in 1998 were as high as $15 billion and profits were over $3 billion.

There are too many companies. If the financial statements are printed out, they are almost as thick as a textbook. The disadvantage is that Henry reads the book faster, with ten lines at a glance. It took half an hour to read all of them.

However, the most profitable ones are banks, hospitals, biological gene drugs, games, film and television, and communications.

The net income of Williams Bank of America, Standard Chartered Bank, and Royal Bank of Scotland is as high as $40 billion. Henry, as a major shareholder, can at least share more than $30 billion.

Hospitals have been making huge profits since ancient times. Henry has nearly 1,000 hospitals in the United States and 1,600 hospitals abroad, which can make a net profit of more than 55 billion US dollars a year. In these hospitals, Henry only needs to have absolute control. Most only hold 50.1%. Therefore, it can also earn more than 20 billion US dollars.

The power of the Gene Umbrella Company made Henry have to sweat for the world. If he used it to do evil, he could develop a variety of biological gene viruses in minutes. At present, the company has more than 250,000 employees, and a new drug is produced every two days, and 40% of the drugs are commercially available.

Drugs worth 1 dollar, pharmacies or hospitals sell at least 10 dollars, extremely profitable!

In 1998, Gene Umbrella's sales exceeded 200 billion US dollars, which shocked and envied all pharmaceutical companies! And the company is very profitable, netting $60 billion.

In terms of games, Firefly Games has made many masterpieces this year, "Warcraft 3", "Diablo 3", and "CS Counter-Strike" has also been developed, plus other games, sales exceeded 40 billion US dollars, making profits up to $10 billion.

Galaxy Films made $10 billion for the year, and ABC Television made $5 billion.

Williams Telecom netted $9 billion.
