Rebirth of the Tech Madman

...

Before Tang Huan left for Asia in late June, the Netscape v. Zheru software monopoly case had already been settled anticlimactically.

At that time, he was still muttering to himself about a newspaper quoting a congressman's argument that this matter will not end so easily, but he was too busy to continue his in-depth analysis.

Now, the answer is ready to come out.

Under the activities of some members of Congress and officials of the Ministry of Justice, the Ministry of Justice is connecting some states and preparing to jointly sue Zheru software company for monopoly.

In this regard, the richest man was very angry.

Since entering the 1990s, the independent agencies represented by the Federal Trade Commission, the federal executive branch represented by the Department of Justice, and the industry represented by Netscape... have taken turns to entangle themselves in the issue of the monopoly status of philosophy and Confucianism.

After all the single fight scenes like this are over, the more powerful group fight tricks will be staged again - this is obviously trying to make trouble!

Tang Huan was already sure - he was really going to be entangled in big trouble next.

Brad Swahlberg, CEO of Zheru Software, who saw this information, cursed angrily: These bastards! If the judicial process is started again, let's go directly to the Supreme Court, lest the president Such unconvinced entanglement.

Tang Huan didn't answer the conversation right away. Geinbrad Swahlberg's vision was still at the level of Zheru Software Company and the management committee of Tang's IT Kingdom, but he was thinking more—maybe I am the ultimate goal; as for Zheru Software Company, it is only a breakthrough.

After pondering for a while, Tang Huancai said: Since we have known the news in advance, Zheru Software Company must continue to maintain the previous working state of being loose on the outside and tight on the inside; in terms of operation, don't change course suddenly, so as not to fall into the trap. Facts—in short, prepare for the worst and wait and see.

Brad Swahlberg nodded knowingly, and then asked: The matter of entertaining the Chinese delegation to the United States...

Continue to arrange according to the original plan. Tang Huan waved his hand, At that time, I will personally act as a guide to visit the most representative company parks including Zheru Software Company - this will be of great help in further developing the Chinese market in the future. It is extremely important and must be taken seriously.”

Brad Swahlberg certainly understands this meaning-in the final analysis, only by being stronger can he have more capital to deal with those seemingly endless troubles.

...

The application field can be called the ubiquitous Zheru software company's products, and it must be inseparable from various mathematical algorithms such as sorting, and no matter how sophisticated its design is, it may encounter the worst situation, that is, the queue to be sorted and Compared with the required order, it is completely inverted, and it must be replaced n*(n-1) times to complete the sorting—thus, confirming the Murphy's law that points out that everything that can go wrong will go wrong in the future.

Perhaps, using the folk song When the bread hits the ground, it always lands on the buttered side, people are more likely to remember the tragedies they have experienced - It should have been fine before, but something went wrong at the critical moment. .

Zheru Software's Doomed Doom already made the richest man feel uncomfortable. Tang Wenmao reported another news-in the battle for MCI, there are already powerful bids for 37 billion U.S. dollars.

Tang Huan snorted coldly when he heard the other party ask Do you want to follow? Since these guys want to die, let them find their own way.

Hearing the Patriarch's words suicide, Tang Wenmao couldn't help but wonder what he was referring to, but when he saw Tang Huan's gloomy face, his lips moved, and finally held back, and didn't go to the bottom of the question.

Mr. Richest Man is now able to mobilize US$37 billion in funds to compete for MCI, but the problem is that even in terms of long-term value, MCI is worth this price, but the unprecedented prosperity of the telecommunications industry driven by the Internet tide also has a freshness period—— The economic trajectory of the capitalist world,

A major feature is that there are obvious ups and downs, and Tang Huan can see that critical point now, and naturally refuses to be taken advantage of.

In other words, no matter how awesome Mr. Richest is, he is not sure that such a high MCI acquisition fee will be worth the fare in the next three years.

In addition, because of the unexpected twists and turns of MCI, Pacific Telecom, which is still negotiating with Southwestern Bell, is no different from a state of two-line attack, and it is inevitable to lose sight of the other.

What's more, at this time, the financial turmoil in Southeast Asia is forming the Asian financial turmoil and spreading to the whole world.

Heroes come out of troubled times, that's all - save this resource, you can do more interesting things.

So Tang Huan immediately gave a clear instruction, This is the end of the matter, so let's make a clear stand and sell the MCI shares in your hand; however, wait for half a month for the specific operation.

Tang Wenmao could no longer suppress his doubts this time, The Dow Jones Industrial Average has steadily reached the 8,000-point level in mid-July, and the U.S. stock market is now in full swing—if you delay deliberately, How the financial turmoil in Asia will affect the United States is hard to say.

Mr. Richest, who has been paying close attention to the dynamics of the U.S. financial market, explained firmly: From 5,000 points, to 6,000 points, to 7,000 points, and even the most recent 8,000 points, the Dow Jones Industrial Average has broken faster and faster, almost In about two and a half years, it has doubled - but this is only getting better, and everyone is still on the rise. Against the background of economic globalization, financial fluctuations in Asia will inevitably affect On the US side, it only affects a little bit.”

Tang Wenmao thought for a while along this line of thought, and then said with a smile: Although it is inevitable that I am a bit regretful that I accidentally missed the MCI, but it is not bad to make a lot of money.

It's pretty good. Tang Huan said slowly with feeling: Then let Asia have another blood bag.

Watching his cousin's expression carefully, Tang Wenmao tentatively said, The continuous troubles at Zheru Software seem to make you very worried.

It's nothing—it's just that the soldiers come to block, and the water comes to the soil! Tang Huan waved his hand indifferently, Taking ten thousand steps back, the big deal is to try our best to delay it for three years or two years. This should still be possible. Yes, and time always brings some positive variables.

Seeing that the Patriarch was still calm and uneasy, Tang Wenmao was relieved.

Tang Huan rubbed the center of his brows, and pondered: This period of time should be very busy - on the one hand, the financial turmoil in Asia will spread its influence to the United States. Although it cannot shake the foundation of the US stock market today, but It must also be handled carefully; and I have to set aside special time to personally follow up a series of activities of the Chinese head of state's visit to the United States.

We will work hard. Tang Wenmao comforted: Besides, Jin Chang, Jin Ge, Jin Ming, and Jin Liang are all very sensible, and can already undertake a lot of work within their capabilities.

...

The Chinese head of state's visit to the United States after 12 years is indeed of great significance, and on the American side, the White House and the business community also attach great importance to it.

This can be seen from the televised speech delivered by US President Bill Clinton to the nation on the day the Chinese head of state departed.

He mentioned that the comprehensive development of mutually beneficial cooperative relations between the United States and China is in line with the fundamental interests of the two countries; he believes that through strengthening the exchange of visits between the leaders of the two countries, Sino-US relations will be further improved and developed; the differences between the two countries will also be properly resolved .

Bill Clinton's remarks not only showed the US government's determination to develop relations with China, but also showed that the US attaches great importance to the visit of the Chinese head of state.

In fact, Bill Clinton has already sent Secretary of State Madeleine Albright, Vice President Al Gore, and National Security Advisor Sandy Berger to China in February, March and August this year. , to discuss and determine the schedule of the Chinese head of state's visit to the United States after a lapse of 12 years.

At the same time, the White House is actively preparing for public opinion at home and around the world, using every opportunity to present reasons for developing relations with China and gain the greatest support from the people.

It can be said that the content and timing of Bill Clinton's speech reflected the good intentions of the Democratic president, who was being chased and intercepted by the Republican Party, trying to break the situation and build political achievements.

Correspondingly, anti-China forces in the United States have been rampant recently.

For example, at the beginning of this year, the China (see here again) threat theory was rampant in the United States, and China was portrayed as the new devil's empire after the Cold War.

In June of this year, when the U.S. Congress was debating the issue of China's most-favored-nation status, some people made anti-China rhetoric again.

And the subsequent return of Xiangjiang was also described by some people as the death of democracy.

Overall, in the first seven months of 1997, members of the U.S. Senate and House of Representatives proposed 66 anti-China proposals, the most in recent years.

In this cold wave, Zheru Software Company's monopoly issue was being pursued fiercely, and Tang Huan could not help but think that behind it was the fact that it came from mainland China, rose with lightning speed, and now has almost achieved little. A targeted attack by the defeated self.

The more so, the more Tang Huan attached importance to the Chinese head of state's visit to the United States.

Needless to say, Tang Huan used to have more feelings for China, but now he has to consider interests first.

The closer China and the United States are connected, in the big sense, it can make the United States fearful of damage and gain room for development; A bargaining chip that weighs enough—the mystery in it can only be felt, but cannot be expressed in words!

Therefore, it is not difficult to understand Tang Itit's meticulous preparations for receiving the Chinese delegation in San Francisco and Silicon Valley, and Tang Daheng's in Los Angeles and Hollywood.

Even, the richest man simply showed his special value and came to Honolulu, the capital of Hawaii, the first stop of the Chinese delegation to the United States. At 9 am on October 26, he and Governor Ben Cayetano, Pick up together.

When the Chinese head of state arrived in Hawaii, one of the essential activities was to visit the USS Arizona Memorial Museum located in Pearl Harbor, Oahu, Hawaii.

The origin here is easy to think of, that is, when the navy attacked Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941, it was severely damaged by Japanese fighter planes, which caused a violent explosion of the ammunition depot in the front turret, and finally sank the USS Arizona in the harbor. .

The United States also attaches great importance to patriotic education—because the Arizona was extremely damaged, the U.S. Navy decided not to salvage and repair it, and decommissioned it, but in the wreckage of the Arizona, there are still 1,177 dead soldiers. 1102 remains. At the request of Admiral Arthur Radford, the former commander-in-chief of the Pacific Fleet, and with the support of former US presidents Dwight Eisenhower and John F. Kennedy, in 1962, the USS Arizona Memorial was built on the remains of the USS Arizona. Opened, and has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places and National Historic Landmarks.

Since then, every U.S. Navy, U.S. Coast Guard, and U.S. Merchant Marine vessel that enters Pearl Harbor must salute the wreck of the USS Arizona, known as manning_the_rails.

Therefore, it is also the meaning of the title that the Chinese head of state visits and remembers this important World War II memorial.

By the time Ben Cayetano hosted a welcome banquet at the governor's mansion that evening, the mood was lighthearted and cheerful.

The governor's wife sang a wish song, and the Chinese head of state happily picked up the six-stringed guitar to accompany it, which immediately won bursts of applause from the guests.

And this kind of knowledgeable and peaceful style spread rapidly through the media.

...

After the trip to Honolulu, the Chinese delegation flew directly to the second stop - the historic city of Williamsburg in Virginia on the east coast of the United States.

Here is the second oldest university in the United States - the College of William and Mary, founded in 1693. Its graduates held a pivotal political position in the early history of the United States.

For example, among the 56 signatories of the Declaration of Independence in the United States, 12 were graduates of the College of William and Mary, accounting for nearly a quarter of the quota.

For another example, up to now, the College of William and Mary has produced 5 US presidents, while Virginia has produced 8 US presidents, and thus it is known as the hometown of presidents.

The second stop of the Chinese delegation to the United States came to Williamsburg, which has a profound political and historical background, and it is also sending a signal.

...

On October 29, the Chinese head of state and his party came to the White House.

The richest man has already received news that under the efforts of some members of Congress, the Ministry of Justice has united with at least 15 states, but it is not sure when it will formally pierce that layer of window paper and launch an anti-monopoly against Zheru software company litigation.

Tang Huan's first reaction was to laugh at himself—fortunately, there is no California!
