My Age of Investment

Four hundred and eighty-four, IoT Internet of Things

"Abel, Li Ying, the work content of the two of you is different from that of colleagues in VC and hedge funds."

As soon as Xia Jingxing finished speaking, Yabo and Li Ying nodded their heads.

They were basically aware of Xia Jingxing's thoughts.

"VC funds and hedge funds both aim to pursue high returns and profits, but the two of you have the most funds in your hands, one fund of funds and two PE funds.

With so much money, I want to use it to invest in the industry and make a five-year, ten-year or even longer-term layout. "

Duck neck nodded and smiled, "Boss, I know, when I went back to the United States for vacation some time ago, I sacrificed a precious day of vacation, went to the Android company to have a look, and chatted with Andy Rubin.

Although their founders are financially free, but because the boss promised to give them 10% of the team's stock options, they are currently working in full swing.

According to my observation, several people are indeed a bit of a geek spirit, the kind who will never give up until they make a new generation of mobile phone operating system.

In addition, after you bought Android, boss, you injected another 50 million U.S. dollars in research and development funds, and there is no longer any constraints on funds. Their research and development progress is very fast...

In short, everything is developing in a good direction. "

Xia Jingxing nodded, "The Android mobile phone operating system is only a part of my industry layout.

The summer heat fund invested nearly half of the funds in the mobile phone industry.

I'm betting heavily on the next shocking event! "

Hearing this, Fu Jixun, Rich, Liu Hai, and Jiang Ping, who are in charge of VC and hedge funds, all showed serious expressions.

Although the Chu Xia Fund of Funds has little to do with them, it is still a company, and it can be regarded as a prosperous and prosperous company.

None of them understood the mobile phone industry. Only Ricky was from the founding team of Android. He admired Xia Jingxing's geek spirit and said with a smile: "Dai Lun, although I am no longer in charge of Android and I don't manage the Chushu Fund, I am very grateful to you. Your idea of ​​developing a new generation of mobile phones is to express 10,000 support.

This is different from ordinary VC and PE. You are investing in the next era.

Once successful,

We will eat up the dividends of the times, and our originally irrelevant funds may benefit from it. "

"Exaggerated, exaggerated."

Xia Jingxing smiled and waved his hands, "It's just the beginning, it's too far away."

That being said, Xia Jingxing was already happy.

Moreover, Ricky is very discerning, and he is absolutely right. If the mobile phone industry is under pressure, other funds will also benefit.

In the previous life, several funds cooperated with Apple in the "Apple Developer Fund" to invest in small companies that develop games and various applications for the Apple operating system.

There is no such fund on the Android side, because Google has Google Ventures, and the person in charge happens to be Ricky in front of him.

"Where's Ari?"

Duck Neck asked, and then wiped Xia Jingxing's neck.

Xia Jingxing laughed, "Okay, don't make random gestures, Ma Yun regards the control of the enterprise more than anything else, we are just a standard financial investment, don't think too much about other things."

After all, Xia Jingxing looked at Deng Yuanjun of the mobile phone industry merger and acquisition fund, and Zhang Zhao of the film and television copyright fund, and each had his orders.

The work content of the two is not only to make money, but also related to the industrial layout.

Both of them are also clear about their responsibilities. One is to serve mobile phones and invest in the upstream and downstream industries of the mobile phone industry; the other is to serve Tudou and invest in the film and television industry.

After explaining to the two of them, Xia Jingxing looked at Li Ying.

Li Ying was wearing a white lady's professional business suit, her long black hair was still habitually draped over her shoulders, and she looked very capable.

At the same time, she was the only woman present.

Seeing Xia Jingxing glance over, she and Xia Jingxing looked at each other.

"I think, you should now understand what I told you before, choose a certain industry?"

During the interview with Li Ying, Xia Jingxing didn't reveal too much, he just said that he would choose one or two industries for the main layout, and Bailu PE Fund also served this purpose.

Li Ying nodded and smiled, "President Xia, I understand, it's the mobile phone industry."

"wrong!"

Xia Jingxing shook his head and laughed, looked at Deng Yuanjun, raised his chin, "Old Deng is enough for the mobile phone industry, and the US$250 million mobile phone industry fund he manages serves exactly this purpose."

"That is……"

Li Ying was confused now.

Xia Jingxing said with a smile: "Let me tell you a personal experience first!

At the beginning of this year, I was invited by Bill Gates to visit his mansion "Xanadu 2.0"..."

Xia Jingxing's opening immediately attracted everyone's attention.

After Xia Jingxing finished speaking, everyone was still immersed in the technological sense of the magical mansion.

"Is this true? Bill Gates' home is really as high-tech as the media said?"

Duck Neck was very interested in the Gates family's mansion, and asked incredulously after listening.

Xia Jingxing smiled slightly, "Of course, after all, the richest man in the world must have spent a lot of money on his family."

"Auto-sensing lights, security, monitoring, background music, home theater..."

Li Ying muttered, and began to summarize the key words that Xia Jingxing had just described.

"Yes, these things build into a very interesting concept, which I call the 'smart home.'"

Hearing such an interesting word from the boss, everyone muttered silently and began to think.

Li Ying asked: "Mr. Xia, you mean that Bailu Fund invests around the concept of smart home?"

Xia Jingxing shook his head again, "Smart home is just the basic application of this technology in the home, oh, by the way, this technology is called Internet of Things, "of Things, IoT for short.

It integrates various devices and technologies such as various information sensors, radio frequency identification technology, global positioning system, infrared sensors, and laser scanners.

Collect various required information such as sound, light, heat, electricity, mechanics, chemistry, biology, location, etc., and realize the connection between things and things, things and people through various possible network accesses, and realize the intelligence of things and processes perception, identification and management. "

"Why does it sound like a hodgepodge? And it seems to be a technology-intensive industry."

Xia Jingxing looked at Li Ying and replied, "You're right, with the current technology, it's quite difficult, otherwise only Bill Gates' family can afford it.

The concept of the Internet of Things first appeared in Bill Gates' 1995 book "The Road to the Future".

However, limited by the development of wireless networks, hardware and sensing equipment at that time, this technology could only stay on paper, or like Bill Gates, laying 80 kilometers of cables under the mansion. "

"The technology was not good at that time, but now ten years have passed, has the technology been achieved?" Li Ying asked.

"It still doesn't work, but the dawn has appeared!"

Xia Jingxing took out his mobile phone and threw it on the table, "Bill Gates still has a remote control at home. If a new generation of smart phones is developed, this will be the remote control for smart homes."

Everyone was at a loss, so Xia Jingxing had no choice but to explain patiently.

Li Ying herself has a background in computer and electronic engineering, and has worked in the communication equipment industry for many years, so she quickly understood the principle.

She asked: "So, the Internet of Things technology is a key development direction in the future?"

"The Chinese Academy of Sciences started research on sensor networks as early as 1999, and has achieved some scientific research results and established some applicable sensor networks.

In the same year, the International Conference on Mobile Computing and Networks held in the United States pointed out that the sensor network is another development opportunity for mankind in the next century.

In 2003, the US "Technology Review" pointed out that sensor network technology will be the top ten technologies that will change people's lives in the future. "

Xia Jingxing has been studying the Internet of Things for a long time, and at this time, various reports are readily available.

After finishing speaking, he added another sentence: "Oh, by the way, it is generally called the sensor network at the moment, not the Internet of Things."

"What do you need Bailu Fund to do?"

Li Ying felt that the burden on her body was not easy, and she was still confused about the direction, so she smiled wryly: "A lot of technologies are still in the laboratory right now? You can't let the Bailu Fund invest in the laboratory?"

The duck neck glanced at Li Ying, and they have a common language, and the two funds he manages are also the same. The boss likes to invest in some future technologies, and the risk is very high!

However, if it succeeds, the benefits are also huge!
