Rebirth of the Tech Madman

...

With the status of the richest man, when accepting various honors, it is natural to think twice.

For example, during the Hong Kong dollar crisis in 1983, Tang Huan publicly bought 1 billion Hong Kong dollars in the money market to support Hong Kong’s economy, and then Britain planned to award honors and commendations, but he was politely declined during the ventilation stage. There are comprehensive considerations.

You think you are awesome with a title of nobility, but it actually means that you have sworn allegiance to the Queen of England!

Moreover, although the monarchy system is still preserved in some countries, it is due to historical reasons. The value system it represents has long been outdated and has been reduced to a marginal role. You, a high-tech industry leader, took the initiative If you put it together, you will inevitably be suspected of violating mainstream values ​​and going against the trend.

What's more, it cannot be said that there is no object worthy of the allegiance of the richest man, but it should definitely be the monarch!

Now that the Soviet Union handed over the International Lenin Peace Prize and the Order of Lenin to commend Mr. Richest for his long-term friendly exchanges and his generosity in handling the Chernobyl nuclear accident, Tang Huan also had to weigh it carefully.

The International Lenin Peace Prize was originally named the International Stalin Prize, which was established by an administrative order issued by the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the Soviet Union on December 21, 1949 to commemorate Stalin’s 70th birthday; after the de-Stalinization movement began in 1955, it was renamed Now the International Lenin Peace Prize.

The purpose of this award is to commend those who strengthen peace among people, which is quite a challenge to the Western Nobel Prize. But unlike the Nobel Prizes, the International Lenin Peace Prize is usually awarded to a few individuals. The targets of its rewards were mainly prominent communists, or supporters of the Soviet Union who were not Soviet citizens. Among them, there are many political celebrities, outstanding scholars, literary masters, and scientific masters.

For example, during the period of the International Stalin Prize, China’s Song Qingling and Guo Moruo were among them; during the period of the International Lenin Peace Prize, American sociologists, historians, writers, civil rights activists, pan- William Edward Burghardt Du Bois, a non-alist and the first African-American to receive a Ph.D. from Harvard University, also received the honor; The former Indian Prime Minister Indira Gandhi who died, and this year's British female biochemist Dorothy Hodgkin, who won the 1964 Nobel Prize in Chemistry.

Although the scope of the International Lenin Peace Prize seems to be very broad, an identity like Tang Huan's is a bit abrupt.

As for the highest-ranking state medal in the Soviet Union, the Order of Lenin, it has a longer history. It was established by an order issued by the Presidium of the Central Executive Committee of the Soviet Union on April 6, 1930. It is awarded to individuals who have made special meritorious service in socialist construction and national defense. Collective, agency, social group, army or city.

If it is understandable for Tang Huan to be honored to win the International Lenin Peace Prize, then he is also baffled by the fact that the Order of Lenin was sent to him.

Looking at the reason for awarding the award on the document—outstanding contribution to the Soviet Union and society and outstanding contribution to promoting the unity and friendship between the people of the Soviet Union and other countries, Tang Huan couldn't help feeling overwhelmed with emotion—what? Time brother became so great?

...

Tang Huan, who was single-minded and double-minded, waited until Hiroshi Mitsuka was almost done, then took over the conversation and said, Actually, I know a little about the Japanese Shinkansen. In this way, your Excellency, Minister, travels long distances and travels tiredly, why don't you take a rest first? .”

Hiroshi Mitsuka blinked his eyes in doubt, and muttered in his heart, I still know the Japanese Shinkansen? What does this mean? Do you think I have introduced it for a long time, too pragmatic, and there is no real content?

At this time, Tang Huan waved his hand, and Masako Wada kindly asked Hiroshi Mitsuka to rest.

It's okay, I'm getting old, and I'm really lacking in energy. Let's talk about it later. Hiroshi Mitsuka stood up,

Time to figure out a new PR strategy.

Tang Huan, who saw Hiroshi Mitsuka's muttering in his heart, looked at his back and smiled faintly. He really knew the situation in Japan far better than Europe, so his investment activities were relatively active.

Among the series of privatizations promoted by the Nakasone Yasuhiro cabinet, the Nippon Telegraph and Telephone Corporation is the most lucrative, and the Japanese state-owned railways are the worst.

Therefore, if the two parties really cooperate, it means that the passive Japanese state-owned railway is easier to squeeze.

But Mitsuka Hiroshi is a senior politician, and together with Mori Yoshiro, Shiokawa Shojuro, and Kato Junyue, he is known as the Four Heavenly Kings of the Communist Party under Shintaro Shintaro, who has made great efforts to deal with the mess of Japan's state-owned railways. deep.

For such an old fried dough stick, it should be more reserved.

After putting Hiroshi Mitsuka aside, Tang Huan called Condoleezza Rice and other consultants to consult on the political risks of accepting the International Lenin Peace Prize and Order of Lenin—yes, he was inclined to accept the Soviet Union A special way of showing favor. Only with this kind of reciprocal interaction can we have the basis of mutual trust and thus be able to enter the sphere of influence controlled by the other party.

At this stage, the Soviet Union is full of domestic problems, and at the same time it is very passive on the international political stage. The current rulers, including Gorbachev, urgently need to reopen the external channels. This opportunity is very rare.

It's no big deal to accept it. Condoleezza Rice said directly: In the 007 movie a view to kill released last year--Thunder Kill, James Bond was not awarded the Order of Lenin Well, when the plot of the movie has become a reality, the media must like such entertainment topics, rather than political correctness.

Condoleezza Rice, who is rarely a joke, made this metaphor suddenly, and everyone was amused at once.

Moreover, didn't it just come out that Le Duan, the supreme leader of Annan, passed away on the 10th of this month. I checked, and this pro-Soviet element also won the International Lenin Peace Prize. It is no secret that Tang supported the liberation of Funan because of Annan's invasion of Funan.

Condoleezza Rice's eyes shone with wisdom. Compared with the two, the irony in it is self-evident. I believe that the serious media will definitely notice this.

Speaking of this, Condoleezza Rice shrugged, It doesn't matter if you don't notice it, Don has enough resources to direct the media's attention in this more interesting direction, thereby greatly reducing possible doubts. Voice.

Perhaps, in view of the competition between the International Lenin Peace Prize and the Nobel Prize, Sweden needs to consider the possibility of Tang being shortlisted.

It seems that I will inevitably be edited by the media again. Tang Huan laughed bitterly at himself, but he appreciated the analysis made by Condoleezza Rice very much.

If our OCPC plan enters the Soviet Union, how much resistance will there be on the US side? Tang Huan's gaze turned to Don Estridge, who defected from IBM.

When Jobs visited the Soviet Union last year, his performance was disappointing, so our side became the only choice. Don Estridge replied with a relaxed expression.

Tang Huan took advantage of the opportunity brought by the 1980 Moscow Olympics to set up an office in Moscow and create a sales channel for it products.

However, as the Reagan administration became stricter in control, and continued from the initial high-end products to the current low-end products, this channel also existed in name only.

Although the Moscow office has not been abolished, its functions have inevitably changed, and more energy has been put on various forms of non-governmental exchanges, and those idlers who are considered to be supported have found new errands.

However, some people in the American political arena, including Vice President Bush Sr., have additional ideas, that is, let computer products play the vanguard of exporting the democratic revolution.

This concept is perhaps easier to understand from the perspective of the opposite, such as Romania at this stage under Nicolae Ceauşescu. As early as 1980, the Greater Romanian Typewriter Law was enacted.

According to this law, every Romanian citizen, enterprise, institution, institution, school, etc., who wants to own a typewriter, must obtain the permission of the police and obtain a license to use it; Report the typed samples at the same time.

If a typewriter needs repair, both the user and the typewriter will need to renew their license.

Any Romanian who inherits a typewriter must turn it in to government authorities, or seek permission to use it; if the keyboard of the typewriter is not turned over to the police, even if the typewriter is damaged, it must not be disposed of privately, otherwise it will be severely punished .

Since the typewriter is so strictly guarded, it must have a corresponding role in the eyes of the ruler, and the personal computer has a similar attribute-starting a bottom-up revolution.

In Tang Huan's view, this is a question of how to use tools. The richest man has no intention of getting involved in this kind of political intrigue, as long as he can make his IT products popular all over the world. As for the fact that a certain party might not be able to catch the move, it only shows that it is incompetent, and it is not suitable to continue to sit in that position, and it has nothing to do with him as the inventor.

Last year, when Jobs was emptied of power but had not yet left Apple, in order to break through the predicament and also want to relax, he made a trip to Europe, visiting Paris in France, Florence in Italy, Moscow in the Soviet Union, etc. land.

At a dinner party held by Bush Sr. in Paris, France, Jobs was encouraged by the other party, that is, to import Apple computers into the Soviet Union to set off a revolution from the bottom up.

However, although Apple Computer is mediocre compared with Fangyuan Computer in the US market, it still falls under the strict control of the US and shares technology with the Soviet Union, so the procedures for export licensing are not complete.

Jobs, who was warned at the U.S. embassy in Moscow, was very dissatisfied with the inconsistent behavior of the U.S. government, but there was nothing he could do.

Originally, even so, it did not necessarily mean that the plan to sell Apple computers into the Soviet Union would fail, but Jobs, as usual, aroused the resentment of the Soviet Union and completely cut off the possibility.

This man admired a great figure in the history of the Soviet Union - Leo Davidovich Trotsky, who was the main leader of the Bolsheviks, the commander of the October Revolution, the founder of the Soviet Red Army and the spiritual leader of the Fourth International , as a revolutionary, military strategist, political theorist and writer.

The political thought he put forward is called Trotskyism, that is, the Trotskyites, who fought with Stalin's faction to hit the earth, and were finally assassinated in Mexico by Stalinists in 1940.

Such a character is so sensitive that the KGB agents who followed Jobs once suggested that he should reduce his enthusiasm for this topic. You should not talk about Trotsky, our historians have studied his case and no longer recognize him as a great man.

But such a reminder was useless. When giving a speech to computer science students at Moscow State University, Jobs still started by praising Trotsky, stating that he was a revolutionary he could identify with.

Jobs used this to show that he was different, but it also made the Soviets aware of the trouble he caused. ⑧± Miao (.*) pen ⑧± Pavilion ⑧±, o

Seeing that Jobs basically ruined the possibility of Apple computers entering the Soviet Union, Bush Sr. and others turned their attention back to Fangyuan Computers. It happened that Tang Huan proposed to eliminate the knowledge gap as the goal—one computer per child, that is, the ocpc plan. A brand new ocpc educational computer.

This product is not as good as the orthodox Fangyuan personal computer in terms of performance, but it is practical enough, and it also has an educational computer aura of eliminating the knowledge gap, which immediately became the best choice in the eyes of Bush Sr.

Tang Huan's attitude towards this is simple and clear, I don't care what your plans are, as long as it helps to promote my products, let's clear away the obstacles of the US government first.

In view of the previous failure experience of Jobs and Apple Computer, the faction of Bush Sr. really took active actions, so now there is the acquiescence that OCPC educational computers can enter the Soviet Union openly.

Don? Estridge is not interested in political intrigue, which can be seen from his promotion process in IBM, which has a strong bureaucratic atmosphere. He is not qualified for corporate politics. sensitive.

But like Tang Huan, Don Estridge is very obsessed with selling personal computer products, especially the purpose of the ocpc project, which made the first leader of ibm-pc admire him. Since he became the person in charge of the ocpc project After being a queen, she is extraordinarily energetic when working.

Without those messy and annoying obstacles, our ocpc educational computer will be like a bird flying freely. It will reach where it wants to go. Listening to Don Estridge's report, Tang Huan repeatedly Nodding, very pleased.
