Chapter 219
“No matter, I will make it happen no matter how much money it takes. Whether it’s ten billion or a hundred billion…”
Determination was written all over Carlisle’s young face.
He was dead set on succeeding in the smartphone industry, no matter how difficult it would be. With memories from a past life, he felt a duty to give back to his country and people.
He even planned to establish a real estate company to develop Wenninson town in Caulitorna, in preparation for the inevitable disaster four years later.
From Carlisle’s expression and words, Ryan sensed a solid determination to succeed at any cost.
Hence, even as a newcomer to the mobile phone industry, he opted to take a bold leap.
“Also… your phone needs a 3G network to really shine, but our country isn’t even considering it yet.”
Ryan lit another cigarette. He was convinced Carlisle’s plan to create this phone was simply unrealistic.
“Don’t worry about that. Just focus on developing the chip,” Carlisle replied calmly as if he had everything under control.
Although the current era was dominated by 2G, numerous countries were already transitioning to 3G.
The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) planned to save costs by skipping the 3G phase and moving directly to 4G.
It wasn’t until smartphones became widely adopted in the country that the MIIT issued 3G licenses in
The establishment of 3G signal stations took several years.
Just as the 3G network became prevalent, the MIIT issued 4G licenses in 2013.
The advent of the 3G network marked the true onset of the Internet era.
If smartphones had been developed earlier, the 3G network would have been established sooner.
However, one would need a considerable reputation to advocate for the issuance of 3G licenses.
So, Carlisle had to make a big name for himself within two years to have the social capital to negotiate
with the MIIT.
“You’re the boss now, so it’s your decision!”
Ryan still doubted Carlisle could pull it off, but since Carlisle had already bought the company, it was no longer Ryan’s decision to make.
Ryan reviewed the project proposal on his computer again and asked, “How much do you know about this chip? Can you go over the details with me?”
Chapter 219
Carlisle checked the time. It was already late, but he wasn’t tired since he’d taken a long nap in the
afternoon.
Smiling, he said, “It’s pretty late. I don’t mind, but-”
“Don’t worry about me. I’m used to late nights,” Ryan interrupted.
“Alright. I’ll tell my driver to take a break,” Carlisle said, pulling out his phone to call Francis.
Ryan left to send Daniel out for drinks, alcohol, and snacks.
The lights in the chairman’s office at Xenos Factory stayed on all night.
Carlisle explained the features of future smartphones, while Ryan, like an eager student, wrote down almost everything Carlisle said.
Before they knew it, it was already 10:00 am the next day.
Carlisle finished the last bottle of water and looked at Ryan, who was still full of energy.
“Mr. Ryan, do you have any more questions?” he asked.
