Chapter 515: The Mobile Phone Appears, the World Is in an Uproar

Old Mo laughed: "You don't even know what this is, do you? Hehe, it's called a mobile phone. From now on, we can wear it on our ears and talk to our family and friends anytime. Of course, we can also go online to play games, work, and so on."

They didn't understand yet. So Old Mo demonstrated it to them on the spot.

Even without internet access, the children were amazed when they saw Lao Mo's demonstration.

Can this thing really allow you to talk to family and friends anytime?

Of course, they have absolute trust in Lao Mo.

"Okay. That's the gist of it. But right now, there's no internet. So what we need to do is send a rocket to launch a satellite into space. Then, through the satellite connection, we'll have internet."

When Lao Mo said that, all of his wives were dumbfounded.

This is about building rockets! What a massive undertaking! Just thinking about it sends chills down my spine.

Chen Yao smiled.

"Dad, this isn't actually that hard. I was thinking of doing this when I grew up! I didn't expect you to have done it now."

If you can, leave this to me! I promise I'll have it done in a year.

Everyone stared at Chen Yao speechlessly. "Do you want to hear what you're saying?"

This is launching a rocket! This is going to the sky! Is it really as easy as you say?

In fact, this was not a difficult task for Chen Yao, who possessed omnipotent knowledge.

Old Mo shook his head and said, "No. You're still so young, I don't want you to shoulder such a heavy burden."

Your job is to raise your five younger brothers well. Also, I want to give you a complete childhood. So this won't do.

Upon hearing this, Chen Yao shut up. She knew this was a heavy responsibility, and once she took it on, she would be as busy as a spinning top.

If Lao Mo is willing to let her take over, she can reluctantly do so. But if Lao Mo disagrees, she won't argue.

Old Mo looked at his five women and asked, "Of the five of you, who has the lightest workload right now?"

The other four women all turned their attention to Xiaofang.

Xiao Fang smiled and said, "I should be the lightest, I basically don't manage anything."

Old Mo nodded: "Alright. You're the one. I'll leave this to you!"

Xiaofang smiled awkwardly and said, "I can do it, but I don't know how!"

Without saying a word, Lao Mo immediately purchased omnipotent knowledge from the system and implanted it directly into Xiao Fang's mind.

In that instant, Xiaofang's eyes lit up. With omnipotent knowledge, her mind became instantly clear.

Then, Lao Mo gave Xiao Fang printed copies of mobile phone and network technology, as well as rocket manufacturing technology.

In fact, Xiaofang could have built a rocket without these technologies.

With this technical information, Xiaofang was even more powerful.

"Okay. Honey, I'll take this task. Just wait! I'll get it done for you within a year at the latest."

Hu Huizhong, Princess Anne, and the other three women all looked at Old Mo speechlessly.

Old Mo knew what they wanted. Without a second thought, he purchased four copies of omnipotent knowledge and implanted them into their minds.

The next moment, the four women's eyes lit up. Managing the company had seemed difficult before; now they realized it was surprisingly easy.

The next day, Lao Mo took Xiao Fang to the company.

Fortunately, the company still has a 20,000-mu (approximately 1,333 hectares) plot of land that hasn't been developed yet. Because it's so remote, it hasn't been developed for the time being.

At the conference, Lao Mo made the final decision. He directly awarded the land to Xiao Fang, allowing her to build a rocket launch base there.

The Prince of Hong Kong Communications Network Company was thus established.

At the same time, a mobile phone manufacturing plant was also built there.

Then, Xiaofang began recruiting and building a team. Various construction teams rushed in.

Money is not the issue; the issue is speed.

Xiaofang demanded that the necessary factory buildings be constructed within two months.

It's not about building a skyscraper, just constructing a factory; it's quite easy.

A high wall was also built.

Two months later, a large number of people entered the factory area.

A year later, a rocket soared into the sky, sending a communications satellite into space. It eventually hovered above the equator.

This satellite is traveling at a speed synchronized with the Earth's rotation, so from Earth's perspective, it will appear to remain stationary.

This is the world's first satellite launched by a private company, and the world is in awe.

A month later, Hong Kong residents noticed that mobile phone shops had appeared in various bustling areas of Hong Kong.

The opening ceremony was marked by firecrackers, gongs, and drums, creating a lively atmosphere that attracted a large crowd.

People were curious and flocked into the mobile phone store.

Then, to their astonishment, they found sales staff demonstrating and teaching them how to use their phones.

Shocking, utterly shocking.

Reporters, armed with cameras and microphones, documented this shocking scene.

Each salesperson puts an earphone on their ear, and after turning it on, a screen appears in front of them.

The screen can be adjusted at any distance; it appears larger when farther away and smaller when closer.

The sales assistant operated the screen with her fingers, and it was very smooth.

This tiny gadget can not only make phone calls to each other, but also play games.

Although not many software programs have caught up yet, it is already quite alarming.

Most importantly, once you spend a few thousand dollars to buy a phone, you can use it until it breaks.

There are no monthly fees, no phone bills, no internet fees, and absolutely no other charges.

Once you buy the phone, you can make unlimited calls and access the internet wirelessly. Aside from charging, there are no charges until it breaks.

Some people might ask, "Won't we lose money doing this?"

A landline phone still costs a lot in phone bills every month!

This mobile phone, however, is free of charge.

Where will the maintenance costs come from in the future? Doesn't your communication satellite require maintenance?

The world was in an uproar. Major news outlets and newspapers rushed to report on it.

Hong Kong suddenly became a hot commodity. Wealthy businessmen from all over the world flocked to Hong Kong to discuss cooperation with Hong Kong Prince Network Company.

Queen Elizabeth II also sent representatives to discuss the technology transfer of the mobile phone with Sir Rupert Murdoch.

Old Mo didn't hide anything; he would sell to merchants from all over the world, regardless of their nationality, as long as the price was right.

Unfortunately, his communications satellite can only cover 40% of the globe. If other countries don't develop their own systems, he won't be able to cover the entire world.

Of course, many neighboring countries have signed agreements to share this communications satellite. However, this requires paying a monthly or annual fee.

See, now we have the maintenance funds! There's no need to collect monthly fees or phone charges from users.

Major hardware and software companies were also established one after another, all coming to Lao Mo's company to discuss cooperation.
