Reborn American Tycoon

"Hehe, Alcatel doesn't care too much about what those congressmen said. Redeveloping a system or continuing to use GSM will sooner or later be eliminated by the market.
That congressman is just a farmer, he doesn't use a mobile phone and refuses to use a computer, I don't know, what the hell is going on with this guy's brain. "
"Hahaha, this is really true. By the way, Filson, haven't you noticed that the popularity of computers in Europe is too slow?
Do you believe it or not?In at most five years, the popularity rate of Rabbit Country will catch up or approach. "
Felson looked at William White in disbelief, well, I know you have a son in Modu.But, that's just a kid.
"Don't believe it? I didn't believe it at first. It's very strange. Their obsession with computers and the Internet is unimaginable.
And, you know what?Felson, what is becoming popular in Rabbit Country is the real personal PC.Games and DVDs are what they are most concerned about.
Alas, it's a pity, if I can be more aware of copyright, I will definitely make a lot of money. "
Filson looked at this boss who didn't make enough money, and he really couldn't complain.How much income do you have? Look at Bill Gates, no, that guy makes a lot of money.
"Boss, if Microsoft sells it cheaper."
"Oh, this arrogant bastard, I'm in a good mood today, so I don't want to mention him."
Nima, a set of genuine system is several thousand, plus office suits, isn't it more expensive than a computer.
People can buy anti-virus software for [-] to [-] dollars, and it is reasonable to spend about [-] dollars to buy a genuine system.As for the price of your Microsoft, William White really doesn't want to comment. If you say too much, you will cry.
Well, in Lao Mei's view, the same shares should have the same rights, and the commodities should be the same.You can never say that software is not a commodity.
What's more, you are still in Chinese, and my cost is higher than the English version.No price increase is already considered kind, don't people have any opinions on the foot basin?
Bill Gates' master, William White, can't do it, and he's not interested in doing it.He might be smarter than him, and he already had a countermeasure.
He doesn't care about this now, he is happiest when he can reach an agreement with his European partners.
CDMA is very strong, but unfortunately, before the emergence of 3G, only GSM was said to be global.Due to the fierce resistance of European partners, a very strange scene has appeared in the mobile communication market.
Although Meidi wants to promote it, there are too many domestic operators. They started PK in the era of analog mobile, and continued to PK in the era of GSM.
Stock prices are collapsing and junk bonds are flying all over the sky, talking about mobile operators in the United States.
When the United States promoted CDMA, these operators were confused.Nima, if you don't take you to play like this, if they continue to burn money, they can only file for bankruptcy.
Bad money drives out good money, that's what I'm talking about.In the end, only Smecta and Jiaopan fully promoted CDMA, while Xiangjiang and Tuguo were not very motivated.
Of course, there are games and battles in it.Obviously, Europe has the idea of re-emerging, and it is impossible to compromise blindly.
Well now, none of that exists.Since everyone has interests, let's continue mixing.Of course, if Europe comes up with a new toy, it's good to fight again.
Chapter 895 It's Not Difficult To Do A Wrong Thing
"William, can't our two own your CDMA?"
Looking at the middle-aged handsome guy opposite, William White felt a little bit pained.This successor of the Galvin family always gives people a feeling of living in Utopia.
"Christopher, do you know why I gave up part of the benefits? If I take it all by myself, I will be torn apart by those old foxes."
"Really? Left and right are nothing but antitrust and hostile takeovers. First of all, you are not short of money. Second, I don't think the Department of Justice will entangle you."
William White felt a little emotional, Christopher Galvin is a good man.In other words, this is a very honest person.Such a question can only be asked by an idiot himself.
"Dude, I still want to swallow it all by myself. Believe me, those old things are far more terrifying than you think. It may be a little shallow to say that. They want to swallow my company all the time. I am very sure of that. "
Christopher froze, his face became serious.First of all, he could tell from the address that William White meant closeness.
Like William White, he is a son of a rich family. He has a fixed pattern of how to speak and how to treat people.It's a part of life and you can never get it wrong.
"So, William, this is the result of a compromise?"
"Hehe, of course not, you know, I never compromise. I will give the benefits that can be given in one go.
Negotiations are actually a torment for me.Cough cough, I'm not afraid to tell you, if possible, I'd better keep all companies private. "
"Hahaha, this is impossible. For a long time, in order for the company to develop faster, we must constantly reduce our shareholding."
William White shook his head and smiled wryly, you must never know.You said a very classic sentence yourself.I was fired from my own company.
"Christopher, public listed companies are the norm, and there's nothing wrong with that. It's a pity that those professional managers pay too much attention to immediate interests. You know? Filson even opposes my acquisition of Bell Labs."
"Well, yes, their income is tied to their profits. This is where the conflict between me and those old guys lies."
Christopher Galvin smiled wryly. Why doesn't he want the company's performance to explode.However, if your high-tech company has no innovation, what kind of high-tech are you?
Look at that damn legendary mobile phone, isn't this what those shareholders made of it.He was very sure that if they dared to oppose the migration of the DVD chipset, William White would definitely quit.
Facts have proved that without your constraints, they have developed very well.
"By the way, William, do DVD chips really have such a large sales volume? I feel that the current production capacity can't be eaten."
"Next year, next year it will be reduced to fifty dollars. Three years, three years, if it doesn't reach 1000 million a year, come to me, and I can help you once."
"Okay, it's a deal. By the way, bring out some good wine. This is not how you treat guests. Lafite, I know that most of the 82-year-old Lafite are in your house."
"Cough cough, are you kidding me? Who is spreading the rumors. No matter, but I usually rinse my mouth with whatever Lafite you drink."
Christopher gave this guy a blank look. Although he is older than William White, he still has the character of a son.Bragging about what 13 has, this is also a compulsory course for Brother Gongzi.
"Lisa, come in with some ham and cheese. By the way, a bottle of '82 Romanee-Conti."
"Okay, boss."
Christopher shook his head and smiled wryly. Maybe this guy was not joking when he said to rinse his mouth with Lafite.Even if he didn't really rinse his mouth, this guy must drink Lafite as a table wine.
A group of old guys were staring at William White, how could he not notice it.Seeing the handsome middle-aged guy opposite, William White felt a little sympathetic.
This is how people are. When they are unlucky, if they see someone who is more unlucky than themselves, they will feel better for no reason.
To be honest, it hurts the spring and the autumn when people have not been hit.William White was indeed free enough.
How should I put it, I often think of the final ending of Motorola.William White always felt a little bit sad.
There is no doubt that Motorola was eaten by those predators.Such a great company died like a wild dog.
"William, we'll start launching as soon as the end of the year. How's that going? Any suggestions?"
William White was troubled again, Yixing Project, although Christopher is not the CEO yet, but he is always responsible for the blame.
The mobile phone business is so good now, why don't you make money first?This Yixing plan is really awesome.I have to say, how well you will develop in 13 years.
"It's a bit ahead of time, if you can wait until my Tesla rocket is successful. Hahaha, well, well, it's too late, within three to five years, it's impossible."
"My God, do you really want to ask you, is it really possible for this rocket to be recycled?"
"Is it difficult? My scientists don't think so. In fact, we have already simulated it on a supercomputer. Those low-orbit satellites of yours can be bombarded by mustache cannons.
Alas, I don't know how to reform it, what a bunch of prodigal sons. "
Christopher left happily, he had a good harvest today.In his opinion, this guy is very talkative, obviously different from his previous contact.
It's impossible to say that he doesn't bother those shareholders. If it weren't for these annoying guys, he would have taken over a long time ago.
What he didn't know was that the most annoying thing on Wall Street was the founding family.These people have cohesiveness and charisma. If there is no major fault, such people cannot be moved.
Even if his family's shares are less than 5%, you can't easily sweep him out.
There are too many sequelae. Sequoia drove the founder away, but couldn't control the people below.Look, William White casually toss, Cisco was snatched by him.
After all, you Sequoia can't control the management.If it wasn't for the management's betrayal, he, William White, wouldn't be able to do it no matter how great he is.
Regardless of the fact that there are hostile takeovers every year, this is actually a helpless move.It is impossible for a company that has been hostilely acquired to recover within two or three years.
If you look at Cisco, it doesn't matter at all.Only a chairman has been changed, and the company's management has remained largely unchanged.
It's not that he, William White, has a domineering spirit.After all, the way you kicked the founders out was so crude that the employees and management were really dissatisfied.These people expect you to be unlucky, so figure it out for yourself.
Seeing that Motorola was still running wildly on the road to death, William White didn't know what to say.After Cong's Yixing plan was proposed, they were either fighting for death or on the road of luck.
Since it did not stumble on GSM, the development of semiconductors is also very good.Today's Motorola is far more powerful than it was in history.
I thought there would be some changes.
It's a pity that their death genes are too strong.Your own computer room equipment is selling well, and mobile phones are also selling well.What kind of satellite phone are you going to do!
However, good words can't persuade the damn ghost.
However, those old folks don't want to easily dismember Motorola.
What, why are you such a saint?Is it a pain in the ass to be idle?
This is really not, doesn't it mean that the enemy of an enemy is a friend?
You think that William White will release water for Mao. Since there are bad people here, of course he doesn't mind finding some foreign aid.
Chapter 896 Then retake it.
"Boss, Mr. Cameron is here."
William White smiled bitterly, this guy, every time he messes up, he will come to him.Nima, buddies should take over in person.
Well, just think about it.Yes, yes, no, no, such a big scene, he simply can't control it.
"Let him in, give me a latte, this guy needs an espresso."
William White seldom made decisions for others, which is very impolite behavior.However, it is precisely because of this that those who have this honor are usually his confidants.
"Fuck, James, do you need to be ashamed?"
"Boss, I think, I screwed up."
"What? Ruth fell into the sea?"
Cough cough, cough cough, Kashen rolled his eyes wildly, even if you didn't get started, you shouldn't have such resentment, right?
No, it should be that this guy doesn't like it, otherwise, there are not many people who can reject him.At least, that Ruth should still look forward to it.Dedicated to art? It's no big deal.
Although the idea of using a car in a boat was rejected, isn’t there still a more outstanding segment?
To be honest, if it is those with relatively large card slots, they may not be willing to accept this scale.You can be aesthetic or exaggerated, if you please the audience through nudity.
Oh, easy to take off, but difficult to put on again.In the minds of the audience, you have already arranged a place for you, and you are the one they often flirt with.If you suddenly put on clothes, they will not get used to it.Will be disappointed, will be dissatisfied.
Nima, labor and management are here to see beautiful women, what's the matter with you wrapping them so tightly.
"Boss, there is something wrong with the props, and I didn't find out in time. There are dozens of sets of shots that need to be re-shot."
"Fuck, that's not the case, I asked them to reproduce the Titanic one by one."
"Ahem, boss, it's tableware."
Looking at this paranoid and stubborn guy, William White felt a little bit pained.To be honest, he's getting mad now, Nima, the audience won't care what cups and coffee to use, right?
After a moment of silence, William White pinched his teeth.
"Oh, forget it, let's retake the reshoot, how much does it cost, you go and tell Natasha, I don't want to see this number."
"Boss, I am willing to reduce the salary and dividends. This is my fault."
"I appreciate that quality in you, though, James, I've never been a stingy boss. You can hold Props accountable because he's your man.
What, I can't accept your mistake?Don't think so much, James, don't be in any danger, don't throw Ruth and Jack overboard.These are unacceptable to me. As for being harsh, don't worry about it, and drive away all disobedient ones. "
Kashen was moved, and he needed William White's support.During the filming during this period, he offended almost everyone who could be offended.
At this moment, Kashen was actually quite touched.Nima, after the filming of this movie, it might cost [-] million dollars.He knew very well that a group of Hollywood bigwigs were watching the joke, that is, William White, if you change to another company, you may have gone bankrupt.
Kashen left, walking very easily.It's good, who wants to reduce the salary.White Pictures has a dividend mechanism. From this point of view, it is more like an IT company.
"How partial do you want to be to let him mess around?" Natasha looked disapproving. In her opinion, it wasn't that Cameron was so paranoid, it was just two paranoid people meeting each other.
Of course she knew that this little man was not unable to move his legs when he saw a woman.That Kate Winslet has absolutely nothing to do with him.
As for the rumors from the outside world, they are completely nonsense.Even if William White is rich, he will not spend hundreds of millions to support a woman.
It's completely unnecessary. Well, she's been in the entertainment industry for so many years, and she hasn't seen anything dirty.In William White's position, he should wait in the office.
Don't worry, as long as you have a request, the dog legs under him will definitely help you.
"What nonsense? Why did you say that? Do you know? Natasha, I'm really not being modest. I can't control a movie of this level.
Let's put it this way, if I must come, it might cost $5000 million.If it is handed over to Spielberg, he can handle it with [-] million, but unfortunately, this is not what I want. "
Natasha was speechless. Apart from the "Cleopatra", what other movie needs such a large investment?
What?Only 4000 million.
Just kidding, if you count inflation, billionaires were a rare animal in that era.With 20 billion in your hand, you are the richest man in the world.
Of course, the hidden family does not count.
"Don't worry, dear, I know the outside world is waiting to see the joke. In fact, I don't care, even if I lose money, I'm not short of money."
