Silicon Valley

After dinner, Henry and Karina chatted for a while.

He said slowly: "Oh, dear, I think that a manga can actually be dubbed! Users can read the manga while listening to the voice!"

When Kailinna heard this, she pondered. It is indeed a good idea to dub manga, but it will be very difficult to realize so many manga.

Henry smiled and said: "I know what you are worried about. It is nothing more than that if you add dubbing to comics, you need to hire a lot of voice actors. Looking at the world, there is no company on comic sites that can make a good profit. The money for hiring voice actors is undoubtedly a huge one. expenses!"

Karina nodded, what Henry said was exactly what she was worried about. Of course, Henry is not short of money, but from an investor's point of view, operating a business must also pay attention to economic benefits.

"Yes, but I think you should have thought of what to do!" Kailinna smiled at Henry at this time.

"Hehe, yes, that's right, I've figured out a way!" Henry nodded with a smile, "Actually, after we build a comic platform, we don't need to spend a penny at all, and most of the voice actors will gather on our comic platform. Take the initiative to dub the comics on the platform!!!”

"What?!" Kailinna stared at Henry with wide beautiful eyes, "You mean that a large number of voice actors are willing to dub works on our comic platform for free? How is this possible?!"

"What? Don't believe me? Your husband, I'm a genius!!!" Henry smiled and hugged Kailinna into his arms, and said, "Listen, I'll tell you why now!"

Feeling Kailina Fengyun's body, Henry asked, "Do you know how many voice actors there are in the world?"

Karina shook her head, "How much?"

"Actually, I don't know either," Henry chuckled and continued, "However, I do know that this statistic is very large, and the competition in this industry is also very large. The salary and income are polarized, and some voice actors are paid very high. And most voice actors can barely make ends meet! In fact, the market demand for voice actors is huge. Movies, anime, games, etc. all need excellent voice actors. Voice actors are different from singers and movie stars. They want to be famous for their voices. It’s too difficult. For example, Chinese people are very familiar with Zhou Xingchi’s unique laughter in movies, but that’s actually the voice of a voice actor, but how many people know him?! Therefore, voice actors want to be famous and get higher awards The remuneration is hard to reach the sky! But it doesn’t matter, the opportunity for seiyuu has come, seiyuu can join the manga platform and dub some popular manga! Comic fans can like or complain about their dubbing, the more likes they get A voice actor, the more points he has! We can promise that voice actors with high points can get dubbing jobs for companies such as Galaxy Movies and Firefly Games, and the salary will also increase!"

"Actually, this is a win-win situation! The voice actors rely on the manga platform to become famous and increase their own social status, and it is easier for Yinhe Film Company to select excellent voice actors from it! In addition, other companies know that there are many excellent voice actors on the manga platform, and they Don't you choose voice actors from it?" Henry laughed.

Kailinna's eyes lit up when she heard that, "You're still right!!!" She then added, "It's the easiest way for voice actors to dub comics, and it's also the best way to show voice actors' abilities! In this case, Why not set up a seiyuu agency and sign contracts with some outstanding seiyuu?"

Henry kissed Kailinna on the forehead, and said with a smile: "As expected of my wife, she knows how to draw inferences from one example!!!"

When Kailinna heard this, she couldn't help giving Henry a blank look, "Tch, what's so difficult about it!"

"Okay, okay, let's not talk about this, it's December, and Uber is going to release it?" Henry said solemnly, "Uber is very important to Tesla, and it can be said that the vast majority The entrance of the scene application of people going out has a huge market prospect, and it is also one of Tesla's strategic core layouts. Once Uber monopolizes the global market, Tesla will have a very large advantage in the automotive industry." Henry paused , Said, "At present, Uber is still driving by recruiting drivers. In the future, when the technology of unmanned and self-driving cars matures, Uber's cars will all be updated. You can imagine that all the taxi fares for passengers will be owned by Tesla. Then How much money can you make?"

Karina was taken aback when she heard the words, "Those Uber drivers are going to be fired?!"

"That's right," Henry nodded, and said lightly, "Unmanned and self-driving cars are the future development trend. At that time, cars will be even more reliable than people. People will have accidents due to various reasons, such as drunk driving and fatigue. Car accidents, but unmanned self-driving cars will not, it will drive in strict accordance with the rules, and can calculate the most suitable route through the computer to avoid danger! As people's trust in unmanned and self-driving cars increases, the driver One day it will become a very embarrassing profession, and most drivers will be laid off, which is obviously an inevitable thing for scientific development!!!”

Kailinna nodded and said, "You're right, but it's a bit too cruel for the driver!"

"Cruel?" Henry shook his head. "This world has always been survival of the fittest and survival of the fittest. It has never changed! But don't worry, I will try my best to provide these drivers with new job opportunities!"

"Well, that's the best!"

Henry poured a glass of red wine for himself and Karina each. "Oh, by the way," he said, putting the wine glass in front of Karina, "I forgot to explain to Uber that Uber must implement two-way ratings. Passengers can rate and comment on Uber drivers, but Uber drivers can also rate passengers. Score and evaluate to build a two-way scoring system! Passengers can choose whether to place an order based on the rating of the Uber driver. If the driver’s rating is too low, he can change to another driver with a high rating. Assuming the rating is full 10 points, if an Uber driver's score is less than 6 points, then we will issue a serious warning to the driver; if the score is less than 5 points, then we will consider this driver may not meet the requirements of Uber drivers, Then fire him! Of course, we Uber drivers also have the right not to pick up passengers with poor ratings!"

"As far as I know, Uber software doesn't have this two-way scoring system yet!" Karina frowned.

"It's okay, this two-way scoring system is not difficult to implement, and Uber will perfect this feature soon." Henry said unhurriedly, "You can inform Uber to add this feature as soon as possible, and try to complete it by the end of December! Oh, by the way, this rating system adds a little mandatory requirement: when the passenger opens Uber, the rating interface of the Uber driver who served the passenger last time will appear. If the passenger does not rate, Uber will stay in this There is no way to continue taking taxis on the scoring interface! In this way, passengers will rate Uber drivers. The higher the driver’s score, the more passengers like him. If Uber drivers want to make more money, they will definitely work hard to improve their scores. The only way to improve your score is to improve your service and satisfy passengers! If passengers are satisfied, Uber users will increase, creating a virtuous circle and achieving a win-win situation for the Uber platform, drivers, and passengers!!!”

"Hearing what you said, I feel that it is really not easy to make an excellent taxi-hailing app!" Kailinna laughed.

"Of course! But with me here, everything is OK!" Henry laughed, "You know, after Uber is released, there will be many follow suits around the world. Some competitors are very nasty, and they will pretend Passengers pretend to want to take a taxi, but when our Uber driver arrives, there is no one there. This not only wastes the driver's time and money, but also takes up our driver resources, causing other passengers to not be able to take a taxi, and dissatisfied with Uber! Then, they take the opportunity to promote their own ride-hailing app!"

"Two birds with one stone, very poisonous!" Kailinna said.

"Hehe, what's even more poisonous is that in order to win over drivers, some taxi-hailing software companies even call the location of the taxi to the door of their own company, blatantly poaching people!!!"

When Kailinna heard this, she couldn't help being taken aback. In order to compete, other taxi-hailing software companies may really do this. "Therefore, you proposed that Uber must build a two-way evaluation system, so that drivers can also rate these troublesome passengers, so as to prevent the other party's conspiracy, and sign a contract with the driver with working hours!"

"Yes!" Henry nodded with a smile, "Well, your husband's wisdom is not comparable to that of ordinary people!"

"Yes, yes, you are the smartest!!"

Kailinna stood up from Henry at this time, "I will notify Uber now, and start preparing for the comic platform!" Said, Kailinna left Henry's study with graceful steps, not disturbing him to continue There is still a stack of documents on the desk waiting for his review.

...

December is a month of prosperity.

The equity-based crowdfunding platform "Earth Partners" was officially launched, and hundreds of companies including Williams Royal Investment Company, Blackstone Group, icq, Google, Facebook, Amazon, Alibaba, Taobao, eBay, Ping An Insurance Group, etc. settled in "Earth Partners" People" platforms, each established their own Earth Partners investment funds, totaling $100 billion. In other words, on the "Earth Partners" platform, there are 100 billion US dollars that can be invested in companies participating in crowdfunding!

As soon as the "Earth Partner" APP was released, it immediately caused a sensation all over the world.

Thousands of companies have logged on to the Global Partner platform to seek financing to survive the financial crisis, and there are many companies with great potential among them. US$100 billion is a shocking and exciting figure, and these Earth Partners investment funds are giants in the industry, and the resources behind them can help new ventures grow rapidly. Therefore, more than 99% of start-up companies want to log on to the Earth Partner platform!

"Time Magazine" called the Earth Partner APP platform "a unicorn incubator!"

"Fortune", "Wall Street Journal", "New York Times", "The Times", "Reuters", "Bloomberg" and other media also praised Earth Partner APP. Some idle netizens have noticed and observed that Henry's establishment of the Earth Partner APP platform has a tendency to wipe out global start-ups.

"Henry Williams is simply amazing. Through the establishment of the Earth Partner APP platform, he is crazy about investing in companies with development potential all over the world!"

"Hearing what you said, it's true! I'll go, and I'll wipe out all the outstanding companies in the world all by myself. It's really awesome!!!"

"Hahaha, long live our majesty Williams!!!"

"..."

At the same time, the program "Earth Partners" is also being recorded and will be broadcast in January next year.

One week after the release of Earth Partner APP, the crowdfunding platform Kickstarter was officially released. This platform is biased towards products and projects. For entrepreneurs without funds, this platform is simply a timely help. It was immediately welcomed by many entrepreneurs, especially College students preparing to start a business.

In fact, from Henry’s point of view, launching crowdfunding on the Kickstarter platform feels like an empty-handed wolf. Even if there is no money and no team, as long as there is a good project, the possibility of crowdfunding success is very high. Often, many people send a good idea of ​​theirs to Kickstarter for crowdfunding. After raising money, they start research and development. A penniless college student may get hundreds of thousands or even millions of dollars. Become your own boss and CEO soon, marry Bai Fumei, and go to the pinnacle of life! ! !

In previous lives, examples like this abound on Kickstarter!

This life should be the same.

Although Kickstarter was released a little later than Earth Partner APP, the network traffic is several times that of Earth Partner, and more and more people are starting to crowdfund on Kickstarter. All kinds of crowdfunding are simply dizzying!

The global media was both speechless and shocked, and the Earth Partner APP, without mentioning it, set off a frenzy of crowdfunding! But unexpectedly, Kickstarter came out again! Fuck, don’t play like this, what about those companies that want to enter the field of crowdfunding, will they always live in the shadow of these two crowdfunding platforms?

"I've never seen such a brazen person!" Some companies yelled, "Henry Williams relied on his own talent and unlimited creativity. He even ate meat and soup. Didn't he think of saving some for others?"

"Yeah, you know how to crush us with IQ!"

"..."

Netizens who eat melons are happy to hear and see, and support Henry one after another.

Although many people outside were angry, Henry had no time to talk to them.

As more and more companies came to the Williams Empire, more and more products were dumped to African countries, resulting in a trade deficit in South Africa, the total value of export trade was less than the total value of import trade, and the domestic economic situation deteriorated again. Just now, the President of South Africa called Henry and "bowed his head" to him, expressing his willingness to join the "Wei Yuan" system.

The next day, the South African president flew to the Williams Empire and signed the relevant agreement with Henry. Since then, the entire Africa has completed a unified currency!

"The next step is to start..."

The corners of Henry's brows raised slightly, and he smiled.
