Hello 1983

After thinking about it, a smile appeared on Liu Qingshan's face: "Then I'll change to another company. As for Mr. Merton, you can do whatever you want."

The generosity shown by Liu Qingshan made the two notaries nod their heads slightly.

"I stand by my original choice."

Professor Merton didn't appreciate it. He bet all his net worth and even raised 500 million US dollars. Therefore, he was only allowed to succeed in this gamble, not to fail.

Cisco is the company he is most optimistic about after detailed research. How can it be easily changed?

Liu Qingshan didn't need to write any more this time, and said directly: "Then I choose Earth Network, which happens to be an Internet company."

Although Cisco is powerful, it took more than ten years of development to become a behemoth.

Liu Qingshan also has confidence in his own earth network.

"Global Network, isn't that Mr. Mountain's own company? We need to ask Professor Merton for advice on this."

Lawyers are relatively conscientious. Buying their own company's stock is definitely fine in principle, but they are afraid that the other party of the client will find fault.

Professor Merton was also taken aback. In fact, the Earth Network was also one of his targets.

It's just because the Earth Network is Liu Qingshan's company, he felt a bit out of touch, so he finally chose Cisco.

Just now, the young man has already backed down a step. If he is more hypocritical, he will appear to be too disrespectful.

So Professor Merton nodded: "Yes, but during this year, normal business models can be carried out, and Mr. Mountaine is not allowed to interfere with the company's stock price."

"Okay!" Liu Qingshan didn't intend to engage in any secret operations, so he nodded in agreement.

There were no more objections from both parties, and the agreement was passed smoothly.

Cisco just went public this year, with a market capitalization of close to 7000 million. Now it can only be regarded as a small-cap stock.

As for the stock price, based on the closing price adjusted for dividends and share discounts, when Cisco was listed on Nasdaq, the stock price was only US$0.08 per share.

Of course, according to the market value, it is 18 US dollars per share.

Liu Qingshan remembers that one year later, in 1991, the total market value of Cisco was less than [-] million US dollars.

It wasn't until [-], when Chambers took the helm of Cisco, that the company began to take off on the rocket.

And now, Chambers is already the CEO of Wang An Computer. It is not certain whether Cisco can develop into that giant in the future.

Besides, the duration of this bet is only one year. During this year, Cisco's market value has increased by less than ten times. Liu Qingshan also has confidence in his own earth network.

Liu Qingshan was also full of pride in his heart: just compete with Cisco!

After the agreement was signed, Liu Qingshan accompanied Writer Lu to a reception at night, and the next day, it was finally time for the awards.

After lunch and a short rest, the winners and their groups of relatives and friends left the Stockholm Grand Hotel, took the car parked at the door, and headed to the Stockholm Concert Hall, where awards have been presented over the years.

Liu Qingshan accompanied Writer Lu to get off the car, and looked up at the concert hall. The row of stone pillars in front looked majestic and majestic.

The tone of the concert hall is mainly light blue, so it is customarily called "Blue Hall".

Once here, the winners are led to the lounge at the back, while the group of relatives and friends go to the auditorium.

Every year at the awards ceremony, the number of spectators is limited to 2000 people, and by the time Liu Qingshan and the others entered the arena, most of them were already seated.

The location of the relatives and friends table is naturally relatively front, and together, there are about 60 to [-] people.

Among a group of foreigners in tuxedos, Liu Qingshan and his oriental faces were particularly eye-catching.

It was not the first time that Chinese faces appeared in the Nobel Prize presentation ceremony, but it was the first time that the winners were truly from China.

To some extent, this also indicates that the ancient China has gradually connected with the world and is beginning to rejuvenate.

Leader Geng and others were all sitting upright, all wearing Chinese tunic suits, and their hair was carefully groomed.

Liu Qingshan is wearing a Chinese stand-up collar, which is also his signature clothing. It looks clean and neat. Coupled with his handsome face, it shows a unique temperament.

Calm atmosphere, but also appears positive.

"Wow, big brother, you are so cool." A childish voice came from the front row, and then Liu Qingshan saw a delicate little face with gaping teeth.

I have to say that the little girl with blond hair and blue eyes, like a doll, is very cute.

The corners of Liu Qingshan's mouth also curled up slightly: "The little princess is so beautiful today."

The little guy was flattered, and then there were a few more little guys in the front row, all saying hello to Liu Qingshan.

Now that the award ceremony has not officially started, low-key chatting is still possible.

Liu Qingshan also smiled and confronted them, after all, they were former comrades-in-arms.

"Big brother, you signed a contract with that bad grandpa, why didn't you ask us to be there, I can write my name in cursive now?"

The little princess Kuoyazi, with a bit of complaint in her mouth, looked at her posture and wanted to sign her name on the contract.

Grace is also here, and when the king attends later, as a member of the royal family, she will also sit on the stage.

She touched the little guy's head: "You are not yet an adult, and your signature is not valid. Let's wait until you grow up."

"Oh, but it grows very slowly." The little princess Huoyazi also sighed, wondering if this counts as growing pains.

Liu Qingshan comforted her with a smile: "Don't worry about growing up, but always cherish the present moment."

The little princess nodded half-understanding, the little guy didn't know yet, the older he got, the more troubles he would have.

In fact, Liu Qingshan was already prepared. He asked Boban to take out a manuscript from his briefcase, which was a copy of the official contract.

"Okay, everyone can sign now."

Liu Qingshan handed over the contract and pointed to the back of his signature: "Just sign it here. This is a contract between us, and it will be valid no matter what time it is."

This excited the children to the core, kids, they are eager to participate, but they are often ignored by adults.

Liu Qingshan grew up with the fourth and fifth children in the family, and he knows the children's thoughts best.

"I'll come, I'll come." Little Huoya Princess took the pen and carefully wrote her name letter by letter: Sophia.

"And me." Little William and the others also scrambled for autographs.

"I, I, I, I can't write yet." The second prince, Henry, was too young and was about to cry.

The audience around them all watched with a smile on their faces.

It was Little William who grabbed his little brother's little hand and helped him sign his name crookedly and coyly.

It made those grown-up royal family members feel a little anxious.

However, younger brothers and sisters can participate, as if they were children messing around, but they cannot.

"Okay, I will keep this agreement well, and we will share the fruits of victory together by this time next year."

Liu Qingshan said with a smile, while the little guys clenched their fists together.

Liu Qingshan also held back his smile: "But if you lose, you are not allowed to cry."

"We will definitely win!" All the little guys were full of fighting spirit.

The reporters keenly captured these shots, and secretly admired in their hearts: This Mr. Mountain has such a wide network of contacts.

Perhaps these little guys are all tiny now, but when they grow up, they will be a force that cannot be ignored in the whole of Europa.

Chapter 916 Be Patient When Fishing

At four o'clock in the afternoon, the grand awards ceremony at the Stockholm Concert Hall officially kicked off.

At the moment, live TV broadcasts are not so popular, so there are not too many countries and regions where the broadcasts are broadcast, and the reports are mainly based on reporters.

Unlike decades later, live broadcasts can be watched on the Internet.

In the middle of the front stage, there is a bronze bust of Mr. Nobel, with a flower basket on both sides.

The gladiolus and lilies in the flower basket are white and yellow, solemn and solemn.

These flowers were all airlifted from San Remo, because Mr. Nobel lived there for a long time in his later years and finally passed away there.

On the stage, there are several rows of seats arranged in a circle. The members of the awards committee are at the back, and the front row is specially prepared for the winners. This is their glory.

At this moment, the winners of this year's awards have already taken their seats, and Writer Lu is sitting there, with black hair and yellow skin, which is particularly eye-catching.

On the other side, there are several gold and blue seats, which are the seats of the royal family members.

Behind the stage, there is a band, and they are responsible for all the music performances throughout the awards ceremony.

Amidst the solemn and soothing music, all the audience stood up because members of the royal family appeared on the stage, led by the king, followed by several heirs in line.

Among them, Grace was just behind the king, wearing a blue evening dress and a Tiara on her head, which is the kind of hoop crown with diamonds on it.

Grace smiled at Yan Yan, with elegant manners and noble temperament. This is a real princess.

The corners of Liu Qingshan's mouth also curled up slightly: Unexpectedly, I hired a princess as my attendant.

When the members of the royal family were seated, the chairman of the Nobel Prize Committee walked behind the podium and delivered a speech first:

"We are here today to honor the laureates for their enormous contributions to science, literature and beyond..."

After another piece of music, the winners were introduced. Starting with the physics award, the winners were three gray-haired old gentlemen. They supported each other and stood up from their seats with solemn expressions.

After the chairman announced their achievements, they went up to receive the award in turn.

At this moment, the audience stood up and applauded rhythmically to pay respects to the old gentlemen.

The old gentlemen received certificates and medals from members of the royal family, and each winner received a gold medal.

Then there is the bonus. This year’s bonus is 70 US dollars, which is increasing year by year.

The award ceremony went on without a hurry, and the band was busy enough.

Finally, the literary awards began to be presented. Writer Lu got up amidst the applause and walked slowly towards the middle of the stage.

He was wearing a Chinese tunic suit, which was very eye-catching among all the tuxedos.

His steps are steady, and with every step he takes, he is heading towards glory and glory.

As the saying goes: It's a small step for him, but for China as a whole, it's a big step towards the world.

Liu Qingshan and the others clapped their hands excitedly, everyone's faces were filled with pride and pride.

And the Huaxia reporters in the press box quickly pressed the shutter to record this solemn moment.

Writer Lu received the medal from the king and bowed to thank him. At this moment, a simple smile bloomed on his face, just like the thousands of people living in that ancient land, they yearn for wealth and are full of vitality .

"Okay, that's great!" Leader Geng wiped the corners of his eyes lightly, and then found that the compatriots present were basically doing the same movements as him.

There were also tears in Liu Qingshan's eyes, but the smile on his face had never been so bright.

At this moment, the glory belongs to China.

"That's great, Comrade Qingshan, you must continue to work hard to become the next winner."

While applauding, Leader Geng did not forget to encourage Liu Qingshan next to him. In the past two days, he had a thorough understanding of Liu Qingshan's situation.

"I will work hard!" Liu Qingshan also nodded solemnly.

Before that, he didn't have this kind of thought, but after feeling the atmosphere at the scene, Liu Qingshan's thought also changed.

Because this not only represents the honor of the individual, but also the glory of the country.

After the award ceremony, take a break and go to the city hall to attend a grand dinner.

This dinner is also very famous, known as the "most crowded banquet" in the world. The participants include members of the royal family, award winners and their relatives and friends, as well as some dignitaries and celebrities, as well as representatives of ordinary people.

In the quaint Great Hall, in the middle was a long dining table, where some of the main characters dined.

There are densely packed dining tables on both sides, and the tableware is all special, with the Nobel Prize logo on it.

As a group of relatives and friends, Liu Qingshan and the others were of course invited to the table in the middle. The standard of dinner is of course very high, but when everyone comes here to eat, it is more of a kind of communication and communication.

According to the usual practice, when the dinner draws to a close, the winners will give a speech, and the speech of the literary award has always been the most concerned.

Writer Lu took out the speech script symbolically, but in fact, he had already mastered it by heart.

The requirement for the speaker is that it must be completed in the native language. Of course, writer Lu must speak in Chinese.

However, this is not the first time Chinese has been spoken at the Nobel Prize Ceremony.

When the American scientist Mr. Ding won the award, he proposed to the awarding committee that the speech should be made in Chinese.

But it was rejected on the grounds that the official language of the country must be used to speak, and Mr. Ding is an American, so he was required to speak in English.

Mr. Ding insisted: "I am from Huaxia, so I must speak in my mother tongue."

So after many discussions with the committee, it was approved.
