Reborn Tech Maniac

Chapter 599 Classical Music and Dance Combination
……

Every time Tang Huan went to Baodao, he would soak in the hot springs in the mansion in Yangmingshan to soothe his body and mind, and this time was no exception.

He was sitting in the pool, squinting his eyes and thinking about something, when suddenly his assistant reported at the door: "Boss, Steve Jobs from Apple called from the United States and asked if you would like to buy all of his Apple shares." , we don’t know how to respond appropriately.”

Tang Huan, who was disturbed, was a little impatient, and waved his hand casually, "I've quit Apple a long time ago, why do I need its stock now, it's not a rare commodity."

The assistant immediately understood the meaning of the words, and was about to leave when his boss said, "Forget it, let me talk to him personally."

As the saying goes, it is easy to add icing on the cake, but difficult to give charcoal in the snow. To be a person, you must be skillful and kind.

Tang Huan thought about it, Jobs was now in the pit of his life where he was betrayed by his relatives, and if he directly asked his subordinates to repeat the cold sentence "I don't care about Apple's stock, you should find another home", it would be a bit chilling.What's more, the other party is still a small shareholder of Zheru, and it is not harmonious to look down and not look up.

……

Tang Huan, who was wearing a bath towel, picked up the microphone and casually greeted him knowingly, "Steve, why did you think of selling Apple's stock? I heard that you have some conflicts with the board of directors recently, but Apple After all, it was created by you alone, so there is no need to be so pessimistic."

"It's no longer interesting for me to stay at Apple, so I might as well give them a place." Jobs, with a hoarse voice, laughed at himself mockingly, but with Tang Huan, he still refused to go into details about the inside story without losing face, just being stubborn He asked eagerly, "Are you interested in the Apple stock in my hand? The price is negotiable."

"Price is not the primary issue. You should know that, like you, I am unhappy on Apple's board of directors. Now that I have broken away from the relationship, I don't want to mess with it anymore." Tang Huan politely refused, but the reason Very tenable.

Silicon Valley is indeed a gold rush paradise, but between the flowers blooming and the clouds rolling and the clouds rolling, there are countless startups that come and go every day, and those companies that are famous all over the world are finally able to stand out after brutal waves of sand washing.

In other words, the number of extremely good targets that venture capitalists can hunt for is very limited, and after Tang Huan became an upstart, he really put high-quality projects on his plate, slowly It is inevitable that there will be conflicts with people like Arthur Locke and Don Valentine.

Take Arthur Locke as an example. He is an important individual shareholder of Intel and Apple Computer. He naturally hopes that these companies will do their best to make money in terms of profit demands.

Tang Huan is not so overbearing as to prevent Intel and Apple Computer from making profits, but his layout revolves around his own system, such as trying to monopolize Intel's high-end microprocessors, and shaping Apple Computer into a computer that is subject to Fangyuan computer standards but However, it can serve as a foil to evade anti-monopoly investigations, which is actually equivalent to setting a ceiling for the two companies and limiting their desire to do their best to develop.

Although Arthur Locke still doesn't fully understand the mystery.But he could feel that Tang Huan was blocking his way of making money, especially when he saw that Apple was being used to such an extent that only the three founders, Jobs, Woz, and Markkula, were compensated by Zheru. He was vigilant in his heart, so he repeatedly launched countermeasures.

Tang Huan didn't have the time to entangle with the other party, so he put aside the relationship with Apple, which was of little value, but Intel's side crushed it all the way, and won the 20.00% Intel shares held by IBM.

Jobs can be regarded as a person in the game. Knowing that Apple shareholders such as Tang Huan and Arthur Locke are at odds, he naturally accepted the reason for the rejection given by the other party.

In fact, Jobs had expected this result.After all, Apple's current situation is not optimistic, and the stock price is sluggish, so it is difficult to get into Tang Huan's eyes.

Only with the huge success of the "1984" advertisement, investors were not disappointed enough to give up the Silicon Valley company that had created an IPO miracle. Instead, they hoped that it would launch an improved model of MAC as soon as possible to restore the decline.

Although the fourth-generation Fangyuan PCs are coming aggressively, judging from the current situation, MAC still has an advantage in terms of price.

It is precisely because there is still this hope of turning the tide that Jobs, who was made into a polished commander, is extremely resentful.

Many people say "Steve, I support you" in their mouths, but they leave him in action.Especially the former close partner John Sculley, and even Markkula and Arthur Locke, who are similar to the elders and mentors, have ruthlessly stood on the opposite side.

This seemingly normal alignment driven by business interests made Jobs feel a deep fatalistic hurt of being abandoned - he learned very early that he was abandoned by his biological parents and adopted by adoptive parents. ; Unexpectedly, I have to experience it again now.

Therefore, Jobs, who has no bargaining chips for power and profit, intends to leave the sad place of Apple.However, he is also a ruthless person, walking back and forth, but some actions are necessary.

First of all, Jobs has contacted a small group of his loyal followers, planning to leave Apple, completely in accordance with his own ideas, and start a new one.

Then, Jobs didn't want to make Apple's board of directors feel comfortable anymore. He wanted to make trouble for the other party, and Tang Huan became the first choice.

Seeing that Tang Huan had no intention of wading into this muddy water, Jobs was not discouraged, and asked the best thing to do: "Tang, since you are not interested in Apple's stock, then I hope you can do me a favor, that is, in the When I sold the stock, you defaulted to be one of the competitors, and helped me entrust the market."

"No problem." Tang Huan readily agreed to this kind and inexpensive favor, and then persuaded: "Steve, no matter what, let this unpleasant experience pass as soon as possible, too many entanglements Harmful but not beneficial, after all, the ecology of shopping malls is like this. Perhaps, you can use a trip to adjust your mood, or change your mind and think about some philosophical issues, such as where I come from and where I want to go.”

Jobs burst into a rare laugh, "Don, I have to say that the methods you suggest are nothing new."

……

Putting down the phone, Tang Huanning frowned and thought about it.After this drastic change, Apple does not know how its style will change.

At present, Zheru's office software only supports the Apple II series, which has been eliminated from Apple's product line. It seems that we should take advantage of this trend and completely withdraw from the Apple computer platform.But in this way, it is inevitable that small companies like Microsoft will take advantage of the loopholes.

At this time, a faint sound of pipa came.Tang Huan put down his water glass and followed the sound into the piano room. He saw Lu Xiuling, who was wearing a white suspender dress, playing the song "Pipa Language" with her pipa in her arms.

Tang Huan smiled slightly, sat gently in front of the piano, and started to play.Its undemanding, just right for his arty.

After the song was played, Tang Huan applauded and joked, "You are the best at acting among the pipa players, and the best at playing the pipa among the actors."

Lu Xiuling was so teased that she laughed, "If you put it that way, I feel that I am useless, and I am not proficient in anything."

"Where, your pipa skills can be called a master." Speaking of this, Tang Huan changed the subject proudly, and boasted: "Of course, the "Pipa Language" I found for you is also very suitable for you .”

"That's true, good works are hard to find." Lu Xiuling smiled sweetly, and then said coquettishly, "Why do you come out of the hot spring with such a strong smell?"

"I answered a phone call temporarily, and I haven't come to wash it off." Tang Huan laughed, and extended his hand to invite: "Let's go, let's go together."

"I still want to practice "Pipa Language", so as not to make a fool of myself when I play it at the banquet." Lu Xiuling blushed and shook her head repeatedly.

"You've played it perfectly. Besides, one piece and one relaxation, the way of civil and martial arts, you have to combine work and rest." Tang Huan stretched out his hand persistently.

Lu Xiuling obediently put down her pipa and stood up.With the help of the man, the sling slipped from his shoulders.

……

Tang Huan seldom organizes banquets in Xiangjiang himself, because almost all the banquets are arranged by a group of careful and diligent executives, and he doesn't need to be distracted, just be in charge and sit in charge.

Comparatively speaking, Tang Huan was a little more diligent in Baodao. Every time he came, he would hold a banquet and invite political and business celebrities to gather together.Especially for today's banquet, he also specially prepared a program - Lu Xiuling played "Pipa Language", accompanied by Li Saifeng, which can be described as lively and fragrant, full of ancient charm.

"Mr. Tang's creativity is really refreshing." Yu Guohua, who was sitting next to him, complimented.

"I really put a lot of thought into it." Tang Huan nodded slightly and accepted the compliment with peace of mind.

In his opinion, he combined Lu Xiuling and Li Saifeng together, a pipa and a dance, which can definitely be regarded as a strong alliance.

Although Lu Xiuling, Hu Huizhong and other rising stars are hailed as Lin Qingxia's successors, the fact is that they are unwilling to accept the title imposed by the media, and it is difficult for them to replicate Lin Qingxia's brilliance. Certain elements of success are gone forever.

In the original time and space, Lu Xiuling's development in Xiangjiang was not smooth. Even if she devoted herself to art like most female artists at that time, the effect was not great. It is a pity that her unique and outstanding temperament and her appearance are both ancient and modern.

If an artist wants to be successful, he must find a path that suits his own characteristics and style.

Tang Huan's solution for Lu Xiuling was to do the opposite, to regain her musical attainments.The image of Princess Pipa in "Phantom of the Tomb: Wrath of the Dragon Emperor" is amazing and left a deep impression on the audience.

As for Li Saifeng, as early as 1980, she got in touch with the entertainment industry through the hit TV series "The House of Grace from the Earth in Pearl River" by Li TV. As a vase, the most recent one is this year's "Mr. Zombie". Although it is called the heroine, it is actually a vase that does not have a heavy role in the role, so that I have time to follow Tang in exchange for Baodao, and dance for Lu Xiuling's "Pipa Language".

Judging from the actual performance, this classical combination is very interesting, and Tang Huan was secretly proud while admiring it.

"Mr. Tang, the Taipei World Trade Center will be completed and opened this year. According to the plan, the first exhibition project to be undertaken is the Information Month Exhibition at the end of this year. At that time, I would like to invite Mr. Tang to lead his companies to join us." Waiting for Lu Xiuling and After Li Saifeng's performance, Yu Guohua turned to the main topic.

Tang Huan was impressed with the Taipei World Trade Center project, because in order to improve the level of undertaking, he purchased a batch of Fangyuan computers with a considerable amount of money to enhance the ability of digital information processing.

In fact, there is another point about the Taipei World Trade Center that is enough to impress Tang Huan, that is, the Xinyi Planning District where it is located is the most important central business district in Taipei, and it is still in the initial stage of development. According to the original space-time Judging from the final results, it can be said that there are unlimited business opportunities.

After this thought flashed through his mind, Tang Huan patted his chest and promised, "President Yu, don't worry, I will send the strongest lineup to support the first show of the Taipei World Trade Center."

"Thank you, thank you." Yu Guohua raised his glass with a smile on his face.

After this old man came to power, during his term of office, major fraud cases and accidents broke out in Baodao, which seriously damaged his reputation among the people.

However, Yu Guohua is still very good at economic construction. The average economic growth rate and foreign exchange reserves of Baodao have increased rapidly, but the price of goods has also skyrocketed.

Due to the pollution incident at the RCA Baodao factory, Yu Guohua has also done a lot in environmental protection.

Tang Huan had a few deep conversations with the other party, and got to know the details of the construction of the Xinyi Planning Area.

After a while, Mr. Song also came over, thanked him repeatedly, and said, "My brother's TV order is not stingy, and it has given RCA more funds to deal with the environmental pollution incident."

The TV sets that Tang Huan purchased for Funan were not available in mainland China, so he handed them over to Baodao, which can be regarded as helping the victims of the RCA environmental pollution incident to raise relief funds.

A multinational company like RCA has long been an old fox. There is not much money in the account of the Baodao branch. After the relevant departments of Baodao found out, they were a little bit blind at the time.

Tang Huan sighed, "Do as you please, and do your best."

After dealing with these political dignitaries, Tang Huan noticed that Cao Xingcheng was gesturing to himself with a wine glass, so he walked over and said with a smile: "Lianhua Electronics has launched an Intel 80286 compatible CPU, which is very important in terms of benefits and significance. Same."

"Life is not so comfortable, and I seem to have met the enemy recently." Cao Xingcheng smiled wryly, and gestured with his eyes: "Mr. Tang, do you know that person?"
