Reborn in the 70s / Reborn in 1978

A state-of-the-art computer that cannot be integrated with more products on the market, coupled with an arrogant second-generation ancestor, Wang An's company fell like this.

The gloomy sky makes everything look like black and white, and the cold sea breeze blows from the sea tens of kilometers away, bringing dampness and coldness.

The convoy drove slowly into the park, passing the black fruit man and dog sculptures.There are three lines of small characters engraved on the bottom of the sculpture: Little flowers growing in the cracks on the wall, I pluck you from the cracks in the wall, and hold you in my hands with roots and leaves.Little flower, if I could understand everything about you, from beginning to end, I would understand God and man.

This is a famous poem by John the famous poet Alfred Tennyson, A Flower in a Crack in the Wall.

Today, only Wang Chuanqi's family held the funeral here. The entry of the convoy quickly attracted attention. After all, it is a large company that ranks [-] in the United States. It does not fail, and there are really many people participating in the entire ostentation ceremony.

The funeral is in Western style.

On Dogwood way, near the inside of the cemetery, people gathered in front of a new tomb and were holding a Western-style mourning ceremony.

People have already been buried in the ground, so Zhang Xingming was late on purpose, just because he didn't want to see the burial process.

Wang Chuanqi's tombstone is a whole piece of blue-gray granite, which is very large. The top of the monument is built into a rounded curve, and the logo of Wang An's company is engraved in the middle: WANG, and a big king character is engraved on the top of the logo.There are two cypress trees on the side, which were planted by Wang Chuanqi and his wife. In the middle of the cypress trees is the cemetery of Mrs. Wang's father.

Different from domestic ones, the tombstone of the bald eagle is actually standing behind the tomb, which feels like a European-style bedside.If you walked to the monument, you must have stepped on the grave and didn't run away.Because the graves here don’t have grave bags, they are neatly trimmed, but a flat stone is buried on the side of the road, engraved with names and dates, like a bed stool at the end of a European-style bed.

A long queue of convoys parked on the side of the road. Zhang Xingming got out of the car and looked around. It should be a cognitive problem, or it might be because there are no graves. A meadow in the park.

Zhang Xingming walked over. Today he specially wore a black suit with a chrysanthemum on his chest.

Wang Chuanqi's eldest son greeted him and looked around suspiciously. Zhang Xingming nodded at him and said, "Hello, Wang Lie, right? I'll pay my respects to the old man first. I have something to talk to you later."

Wang Lie nodded, Zhang Xingming walked to the front of the tombstone, Su Yan and Xu Xiaoya put fresh flowers on the side of the stone strip by the side of the road, Zhang Xingming looked down, it was engraved: AN WANG 1920-1990.

Zhang Xingming stood in front, the four assistants were in the second row, and Li Chun and the others were in the third row. They bowed three times neatly to the tombstone.On the other side of the convoy, more than [-] big men in black stood by the side of the car and looked at it. They were Shami's men, and they were about the Fifth Army of the Gambino family.

Standing up straight, Zhang Xingming looked at the tombstone, then turned his head and nodded to Mrs. Wang who stood aside and looked at him, and said, "My condolences, Mrs. Wang."

This is a kind old lady, surnamed Qiu, who graduated from St. John's University in old Shanghai. Before liberation, she came to Bald Eagle to study John's literature at Wellesley Women's College. Just concentrate on managing the charitable fund left by Mr.

In her spare time, she likes playing mahjong and holding parties during the Chinese New Year. She has worked hard for the spread of Chinese mahjong culture all her life.

Wang Chuanqi's tombstone was facing the southwest direction. Zhang Xingming turned his head and looked over. The hillside was full of tall trees.A few hundred meters in a straight line over there is the home where he and his wife have lived for most of their lives.

The ceremony was over, there was no banquet, and those who came to see them off went home. Wang Lie asked his younger brother to accompany his mother home, and he took Zhang Xingming's car to Lincoln Town.In fact, it's not that far, just a few kilometers.

Brother Wang Lie is actually a native of Lincoln Town.He can also speak Chinese, but it is Shanghai dialect. Lao Wang and his wife are both from Shanghai. They both came to Boston in their teens. It is not easy for their children to be able to speak Shanghai dialect.

I found a cafe at random, and Shami’s people cleared the venue violently. The boss took out a shotgun from under the bar, but he softened before the word Gambino. Su Yan threw a few dollars over at the right time, and the boss recognized it. .If this is not the case, it is impossible to clear the field.

Wang Lie was a little uneasy.He is tall and tall, looks like his mother, not as thin as old Mr. Wang.

Zhang Xingming ordered coffee, and then put a document in front of Wang Lie, which was all the documents of Wang Lie from childhood to adulthood and a share resale agreement.

"In 86, I had already sent someone to contact your father, Mr. Wang, but unfortunately, for some reason, the cooperation I expected could not be formed. And I just watched you take Wang An Company to God step by step. Tan, such a company with strong capital and technology, you can bring him to the brink of bankruptcy, which is also an ability.

What is the market value of Wang An Company now?$[-] million?Three years has shrunk by nearly sixty times. Wang Lie, you are indeed a talent. I still can't understand how you made the decision to rob your own clients. Don't you have a brain?Forget it, it doesn't make sense to say that.I want Wang An Company, all of them.Call for a price. "

Wang Lie blushed, with unyielding anger in his eyes, and said: "Wang An Company will not fall down. Now we still have an annual income of more than one billion yuan. As soon as my new product is listed, the stock price will rise back."

Chapter 826 Mrs. Wang's decision

Zhang Xingming said: "Do you believe it yourself? From 86 to now, where are your new products? I only see Wang An Company, which is constantly splitting up and selling off its assets. Just like this, all the debt problems cannot be solved. Your years Where is the income? Is it the hundreds of millions of net losses every year?"

Wang Lie stood up fiercely and said, "I will not sell the company. It is the painstaking effort of my father's life, and I will carry it forward."

Zhang Xingming said: "It was your father's painstaking effort, so you won't sell it, you will only bankrupt it and end up worthless, right? It has the best employees, the best scientific researchers, and the best management team in the United States. , the most excellent product, but you have run it into losses and debts year after year, and are you still bragging about it?"

Wang Lie gritted his teeth and said, "I won't sell it. Everything is only temporary. Wang An's company will definitely surpass IBM."

Zhang Xingming took a breath, took a sip of coffee slowly, put down the coffee cup, looked up at Wang Lie and said, "Wang Lie, I'm not here to beg you, I'm just here to inform you. Do you understand? Five hundred million dollars, computer company Everything.

As for funds, communication companies, and those outside things, I'm not interested.

I give you two options, one is to sign, and the other is to die.After you die, the right of inheritance goes to your younger brother, and I will buy it from him. If he still doesn’t sell it, he will die with you, and I will buy it from your mother. "

Wang Lie looked at Zhang Xingming angrily, and Zhang Xingming frowned. He really had no patience in front of such a self-righteous second-generation ancestor.

He turned around and waved, a bald man in a black suit with tattoos embroidered on his head came over, Zhang Xingming pointed to Wang Lie, then clicked on the documents on the table and said: "One hour, he is required to sign the agreement. If within an hour he If you don’t sign, then I don’t mind if something happens here, like an explosion, or a fire.”

The big man raised his eyebrows, looked at Wang Lie and said, "Don't worry, SIR, I will let him sign obediently." Sitting down in front of Wang Lie, he stretched out his right hand to Wang Lie and said, "Get to know me, I'm Negusio , a Sicilian. I am a fighter of the Utario Popular Union, belonging to the Gambino family."

Wang Lie's face turned pale: "A contract with Gambino? Mafia?"

Negusio shook his head and said: "You are discriminating against us, I will notify my lawyer. Please call me Gambino family." At this moment in 90, the contract mafia has resolved the problem of addressing through legal procedures , any name like the Mafia will be considered as discrimination against the Italian ethnic group.

Here, Zhang Xingming came out of the cafe, took a few breaths of the cool air outside, took Xu Xiaoya and Li Chun into the car, and went straight to Wang Chuanqi's house.

Those small towns that have really arrived at Bald Eagle will understand what it means to be sparsely populated, and most of the people living here in Lincoln Town are considered to be rich, with large mansions and courtyards, hardened roads extending in all directions, and random places on the roadside. All kinds of cars are parked, the houses are not close to each other, and large areas of trees and grass grow wantonly.

Going north from the town, passing a private road, the car drove into the courtyard of the royal family.It's on a hillside here,

The first feeling is that it is big, and then there is nothing more, no luxury, no magnificence, no swimming pool, just a clean big house.

When Zhang Xingming and his group followed the butler into the main house, Mrs. Wang was sitting under the eaves basking in the sun. There was a tea set on the table, but it was obviously cold.

"Sorry, I have no choice but to come to visit you very abruptly." Zhang Xingming gave a junior salute to Mrs. Wang who was sitting there peacefully.

"Sit down, I've lived in Boston for too many years, my hometown dialect is barely enough, and I can't speak Mandarin well. If you have something to say, just say it, I can understand you." Mrs. Wang reached out to hold the teacup, He turned his head and called the workers at home to make tea.

Zhang Xingming sat down opposite Mrs. Wang, thought for a while and said, "Then I'll just say it straight, I'm young, so don't be angry if I say something wrong."

Mrs. Wang nodded, and Zhang Xingming said: "I am from China, and I am considered a relatively successful businessman in China. I have been sending people to discuss cooperation with Mr. Wang since 86, but due to various reasons, I have never been able to do so. can achieve.

Now you can also see that Mr. Wang Lie is not suitable for the management of the company, and Edward is completely ignorant of computers. Now the situation of Wang An's company is very bad, it can be said that it is close to bankruptcy.

Edward kept dismantling and selling the company's assets. To be honest, I took over most of the benign assets. I originally came to Boston this time to meet Mr. Wang in person, but I arrived the day before yesterday, and Mr. Wang the day before yesterday Mr. died.

Our country is still very backward. Although people's lives are getting better and better with the reform and opening up, and the overall economy has been improving, but the backwardness in technology and industry cannot be caught up in a few years.

Wang An Company is a company established by us Chinese with absolutely leading technology. No matter from which point of view, I don't want to see it go bankrupt and be auctioned off.Mrs. Wang, I would like to wholly acquire Wang An Company, please support me. "

Mrs. Wang looked at Zhang Xingming, thought for a while, and said, "Do you want technology, shares, factories, patents, or all of them?"

Zhang Xingming said: "I won't touch the fund, it's yours. I don't want peripheral companies like communication companies. I only want the main part of the computer, including technology patent laboratories and factories. 1000 million US dollars. In addition, in As long as you live, I will donate no less than $[-] million to your foundation every year."

Mrs. Wang looked at Zhang Xingming quietly for a while, and said, "What will the company be called in the future?"

Zhang Xingming said: "Wang An Computer, this name will never change. I promise."

Mrs. Wang nodded lightly, sighed, and said, "Have you brought the agreement? Let me sign it."

Zhang Xingming was stunned for a moment, and said, "Isn't the equity in Mr. Wang Lie's hands now?"

Mrs. Wang smiled and said: "He only has the shares of the laboratory in his hand. All the shares of Wang An Company have always been with me. When my husband was still alive, he gave everything to me."
