353 Edison


On May 1, four months after leaving New York, Li Mu finally returned to New York.

If there were no accidents, before the invention of wireless telegraphy, this should have been the last time Li Mu left New York for a long time.

As the boss of Junma Group, there are too many things that Li Mu needs to deal with personally, and leaving the base camp of New York for a long time is very detrimental to the development of Junma Group.

Although Li Mu left New York with Henry in New York, for Junma Group, Li Mu's role is irreplaceable, and Henry, the general manager, can't be the master of many things, and Li Mu still needs to come back to get ideas.

During the time that Li Mu left New York, the Junma Group had a lot of backlogs, the most important of which was the restructuring of the Junma Group.

Regarding the reorganization, Li Mu had a discussion with Henry before leaving, Li Mu wanted to dilute the shares of the Junma Group through the reorganization, and split the shares into the hands of multiple companies, so as to make the Junma Group as unremarkable as possible.

For example, in the power and communication industry, Junma Electric Company is now undoubtedly a dominant company, in the two fields of electric light and telephone, Junma Group has set up a strict patent wall, so at present, these two fields, Junma Group does not even have a competitor.

However, these two industries are profiteering industries, Junma Group installs a set of power supply equipment at least 80% of the profits, the telephone is even more excessive, if you do not consider the infrastructure, the profit margin of the telephone reaches 90%, and the telephone is still a continuous profit project, unlike the electric lamp is a hammer deal, as long as the installation will be used there will be follow-up costs, if the current trend continues, then it will not take a few years, Junma Group will be sued in the name of "monopoly".

Just like the Rockefeller and DuPont families in the past.

Of course, I'm hungry, the current Rockefeller and the DuPont family have not yet developed to the point of monopoly, and there is a big gap compared with the Junma Group, so if Li Mu doesn't make any moves, then the Junma Group will definitely be sued earlier than the Rockefeller and DuPont family.

In Li Mu's plan, the Caribbean Rim Investment Company and the Barron family will be the partners of the Horse Group, that is, in the next period, the Horse Group will transfer a part of its shares to the Caribbean Rim Investment Company and the Barron family.

Caribbean Rim Investment Corporation is an offshore company registered by Li Mu in the Bahamas, which is a company controlled by Li Mu, but not under the supervision of the U.S. government, and Li Mu will give at least 30% of the shares of Caribbean Rim Investment Company to dilute Li Mu's equity.

The Barron family investment company is a business under Will's name, and it sounds like the "Barron family" is quite famous, but in fact, Will, Gloria, and Sandy are their grandfathers, and this company is actually controlled by Li Mu, and Will is just a name.

After the dilution of the shares, the Junma Group will be transformed from a family business into a joint-stock enterprise, and the shares belonging to Li Mu will drop from 100% to about 40%, but in fact, these shares still only belong to Li Mu.

During the time that Li Mu left New York, Henry had almost completed all the preliminary work, and when Li Mu signed the share transfer form, the Junma Group would change its appearance.

On the night Li Mu returned to New York, Henry came to Li Mu with a large number of documents to sign, and the share transfer was only part of it.

"The power lab asked for additional investment, this time the application is 1.3 million US dollars, if you add this money, we have invested 4.2 million yuan in this project, but we still haven't seen results, I think we should knock down Franklin, their life is too leisurely" Henry reported to Li Mu at William Castle on Governor's Island.

Governor's Island is already Li Mu's private property, and the buildings that are still preserved on Governor's Island are only William's Castle, and the island is now full of sandalwood that Li Mu bought from Hawaii, according to Li Mu's plan, a building complex with traditional Chinese cultural style will be built on Governor's Island, and sandalwood will be the main building material.

Henry organized a group of construction experts, and according to the topography of Governor's Island, he designed three plans for Li Mu to come back and choose, just waiting for Li Mu to spit out, and the construction team could enter the site immediately.

William Castle is a building that is sure to be preserved, so this time it has been renovated again, mainly for interior decoration, the exterior wall is like that, although it is a little mottled, but it looks more aged, so Li Mu does not plan to change, the main change is the interior, according to Li Mu's requirements, as long as the sandalwood can be used, whether it is furniture or floor, all must be replaced.

Li Mu's construction team can even take over projects like the Kuobin Reservoir, and it is really a piece of cake to decorate William's Castle, so before Li Mu returned to New York, the decoration work has been completed, which is just convenient for Li Mu to move in.

Li Mu's office is on the Manhattan side of the three floors of William's Castle, and in order to achieve the best decorative effect, the entire wall is hollowed out, and steel columns and glass are used as supports and decorations, and the furniture made of sandalwood flooring is very classical.

"Don't knock, give them plenty of freedom, trust the researchers, and they will give you more rewards than you can imagine."

Li Mu was not stingy, and while signing the report, he gave Henry a vaccination.

Li Mu knows the value of scientific research, so no matter how hard he is, he can't be bitter about his children, and no matter how much he loses, he can't lose scientific research.

"You're too indulgent to them, I'm afraid they'll take it all for granted."

Henry has a different opinion, and Shengmien fights Mi hatred.

Li Mu smiled and didn't speak, and then signed a document.

For Li Mu, the significance of the laboratory is not limited to the economic level, but also has political considerations, Li Mu has always been to improve the social status of the Chinese, so no matter what high-end industry, Li Mu will try his best to get involved with the Chinese, so that the accumulation of small amounts will one day produce qualitative changes.

As for what kind of shengmi enmity, Li Mu doesn't care about this, the current general manager of the Horse Laboratory is Franklin, with Runkel's pearl and jade in front, Li Mu believes that Franklin will not pay attention to these small profits in front of him, as long as Franklin wants to follow Runkel's path, Franklin will help Li Mu take care of the laboratory.

"By the way, during this time, there was a laboratory that applied for several patents in a row on electricity supply, and we wanted to buy them, but they refused to sell," Henry reported.

"Whose laboratory" Regarding competitors, Li Mu had already expected it, but when he heard about it, he still couldn't help but skip a beat.

"It seems to be called Edison" Henry didn't pay much attention, and his tone was still relaxed.

The name "Edison was good" is a thunderous one Thomas Alvar Edison, a name that is impossible to bypass in the scientific and technological world, about Edison's legendary deeds, Li Mu is familiar with it, Li Mu originally thought that after grabbing the invention of lighting the lamp, he should be able to ignore this name, but he didn't expect this name to still appear in Li Mu's ears.

"Isn't this a research project that is being done in the power lab, why is there such a big leak?"

Li Mu was very angry, this was an unforgivable mistake.

"On this point, the laboratory will follow the operation process, after completing a research project, summarize all the technologies, and then apply for a patent at one time to prevent anyone from using our research results, and now the research on power supply has not been completed, so it has not yet entered the patent application process, and Edison's laboratory is cold, they don't care about it at all, just like a greedy crocodile, as long as there is a little progress, it will immediately take it to the patent office to apply for a patent, so" Henry was a little embarrassed, But try to explain as much as possible.

"Who is the director of the patent office now" Li Mu is not very clear about the personnel changes in New York during this time.

After the fall of Tweed, Arthur became the mayor of New York as he wished, and also became one of the two senators of New York.

However, this change is a major benefit to the Junma Group, and Arthur's coming to power is only good for Li Mu.

"Marcus John, like Allen, is an Ohioan, we have suppressed Edison's patent through Marcus, and in a few days, the New York District Court will hear the matter, and I have already arranged to decide the ownership of the patent, and I guarantee that Edison will get nothing."

Henry's ability is still enough, he was exploited by Edison only because of carelessness, if the Horse Group pays more attention to Edison, Edison is now too weak compared to the Horse Group.

This is not an exaggeration, no matter how great Edison is in the future, the current Edison is just a newcomer who has just sold an invention and got a sum of money to show his skills in the field of science and technology, there are many such people in New York, and they are not qualified to be Li Mu's opponent before they make enough achievements.

"Send someone to investigate Edison, see who is in his lab, and poach all his researchers."

Li Mu decided to draw his salary from the bottom of the kettle.

Although Edison was a great inventor in another time and space, in fact, Edison's education level was like that, to put it mildly, he was not as high as Li Mu's education, so many of Edison's research was the result of other people's research, but because he was born in Edison's laboratory, he would be named Edison.

If the Horse Lab throws an olive branch to the staff members of Edison's Laboratory, Li Mu does not believe that anyone can refuse this temptation, and the current Horse Lab is like the future Hollywood to movie actors, a temptation that cannot be refused.

"No problem, I'm actually doing it."

Henry snickered, and finally caught up with Li Mu's rhythm again.

It's not easy
