Chapter 858 The most free student in MIT

The two looked at each other, and Whitman said firmly: "The two of us are going to work in two shifts, each of us will work twelve hours a day, and we will not rest on holidays. Can you start a business and fail again?!"

Niu Xiaoqiang knew at a glance that both of them were very unwilling to fail in their first venture, and they really wanted to prove themselves through success.But even so, the two of them couldn't afford to work so hard.

Niu Xiaoqiang said with a half smile but not a smile: "You two, have you been stimulated by something?"

A self-deprecating expression appeared on Whitman's face: "The two of us were invited to the class reunion a few days ago. Seeing the other students doing so well one by one, we felt very uncomfortable. Of course, we are not jealous Instead, they feel ashamed of themselves, thinking that the grades of the two of us were still top-notch in the class, but now those students with lower grades than us are doing better than us, so we made up our minds to do well. Fight hard once, no matter what the result is, at least there will be no regrets."

Niu Xiaoqiang nodded slightly: "If you really implement the concept of 24-hour all-weather service, I think your chances of success are still very high. As long as you can actively respond to customer needs, customers will definitely recognize our brand. It will be easier to do business later.”

Price nodded in agreement: "That's what we think. In order to help customers solve problems, we are actively learning computer hardware knowledge. When the time comes, if the computer sold to customers breaks down, we can repair it ourselves."

Computers are not so popular in the United States these days. Generally, only companies will purchase computers, and not many individuals purchase computers.The main reason is that the computer can only be used to process files, and there is no entertainment.

Whitman and Price mainly targeted private customers who bought computers for work, and they were not computer professionals who didn't know much about computer software and hardware failures.If there is a problem, you can only find professional maintenance personnel to solve it, which will cost a lot of money and time.

The two went to the computer store in the past few days to ask those who bought computers, and learned that what these people are most worried about is encountering computer failures.After the two came back, they thought it was a breakthrough, so they finally put forward the concept of 24-hour all-weather service.

At present, Hewlett-Packard is not well-known. Except for the three bosses, no one even knows that there is a computer company named Hewlett-Packard in the world.If you want to open up the situation, you must find another way to do things that other computer companies have not done.

Labor costs in the United States are very expensive, and workers are also very resistant to overtime work. Therefore, those regular large companies know the importance of improving service quality, and it is difficult for them to provide 24-hour service like Hewlett-Packard.

Hewlett-Packard is different. There are currently only three people in this company, one of whom is still a shopkeeper, and only two people work.

As the saying goes, a small boat is easy to turn around, precisely because there are few people, so as long as the opinions and understandings are unified, HP can do things that other big companies cannot do, and implement the concept of 24-hour all-weather service.

It can be predicted that as long as this concept is really implemented, HP will definitely be recognized by customers. Once a good word-of-mouth effect is formed, it will be difficult for them to do business.

Niu Xiaoqiang nodded with a smile: "The company's affairs will trouble you two. If you can really make achievements, we may recruit people to free you."

Niu Xiaoqiang once again thought of his Chinese alumni from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. These people are currently doing telemarketing at Hunter. If possible, Niu Xiaoqiang wants them to join Hewlett-Packard after graduation and continue to work for him.

Whitman nodded, and took out a piece of paper with a smile: "Mr. Niu, this is the trademark of Hewlett-Packard. It is officially finalized, and all the computers we sell will be affixed with this trademark pattern in the future."

Hewlett-Packard currently does not have the ability to produce and design computer hardware. They can only purchase spare parts and assemble them by themselves, and then put their own trademarks on them for sale.This is a common practice of many computer companies at the beginning of their business, and it is not uncommon in the United States.

Niu Xiaoqiang looked at the logo pattern that Whitman handed over, and found that the main body of the logo was the two English letters "HP", which were the initials of their names.

Niu Xiaoqiang quickly nodded in agreement: "This trademark is very eye-catching and has a sense of technology, so I will use it."

Whitman chuckled: "Then we'll find someone to produce the trademark later."

Niu Xiaoqiang stopped talking and transferred 40 US dollars to the company's account as agreed.

After receiving the money, both of them were gearing up excitedly, wishing they could start working now.

Niu Xiaoqiang stood up and said goodbye, and drove to MIT.

He is the freest student in MIT. He only took two classes on the first day of entering the school, and never came to the school again.Every time he came to school, it was related to the artificial intelligence project. When he came to school again today, it was still related to this project.

Niu Xiaoqiang needs money very much now. In order to get money, he once again came up with the idea of ​​artificial intelligence project.

When Niu Xiaoqiang walked into the research room, he found that Robert was sitting in front of the supercomputer he assembled and knocking. As for Professor Watson, he was not in the research room.

Robert looked back when he heard the footsteps, and found that it was Niu Xiaoqiang who came, and he immediately asked with a smile: "Student, are you here to find the professor?"

Niu Xiaoqiang nodded: "Where did the professor go?"

"He went to his company to deal with things, and he will probably come back in the afternoon."

Niu Xiaoqiang snorted and sat next to Robert: "Senior, are you programming?"

Robert nodded: "Well, I checked the program written by the professor after I came back, and found that there are many imperfections in it, which greatly limit the ability of the robot, so I decided to modify and improve the program, so that the robot can It's getting smarter."

Niu Xiaoqiang didn't doubt Robert's ability at all. He rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "Senior, I just want to talk to the professor about improving the robot's hardware. Why don't you suspend the work at hand and wait until the professor comes back. After that, the three of us will discuss it in detail?"

　Thank you book friend "Ye Luo Silent 0539" for your support again, bow!I have seen your name, and I will arrange it for you later.
