giants of the era

Chapter 244 "White Emperor City Tuo Gu"!
People often say that "character determines destiny", and Wang An is so proud and conceited that it seems to be doomed to the decline of Wang An Computer Company.

Once, Intel CEO Andy Grove personally visited Wang An to promote its memory.Grove put the memory sample on Wang An's desk, and then asked: "You are the inventor of magnetic core memory, what's your opinion on the application of this kind of memory?" Wang An just glanced at him lightly, He lowered his head to open the letter in his hand, and then replied: "If you had asked me this question earlier, then you would not be able to make this kind of junk parts." This made Grove feel humiliated, and during the meeting, Wang An frequently answered The phone calls repeatedly interrupted their talks.

Grove couldn't help but write in the travel report filled out after the meeting: "My fear is that I will be drowned by his deep yawn..."

Wang An was so proud and conceited that even the CEO of Intel Corporation dared to humiliate him like this.Andy Grove represents not only him personally, but the entire Intel Corporation.If Li Zetian allows Intel to cooperate with Wang An Computer Company, it will definitely chill the hearts of Andy Grove and Intel employees.

What's more, the IBM-PC personal computer standard has long been established. Why does Wang An Computer Company compete with it? Do you really think Wang An Computer Company can become the second Apple company?If Apple in this life did not have Li Zetian's BUG-like creativity and design, it would still be crushed into a dog by IBM's compatible machines.

Obviously, Wang An is too proud and conceited, thinking that he is better than Li Zetian, and can lead Wang An Computer Company to dominate personal computers.

Just imagine, if it is not compatible with IBM-PC, who the hell would third-party software and third-party hardware manufacturers be willing to do additional development for Wang An's computer?No matter how good Wang An's computer is, it still fails.

Li Zetian had already reminded Wang An, but he wanted to kill himself, so no one else was to blame.

In other words, after Wang An returned to the company, he lost his temper in the office.

He took a lot of face to visit Li Zetian in person, but he didn't expect that Li Zetian refused him without giving him any face.

"This Chronos Li is so frivolous, he doesn't give me Wang An any face!!!"

Wang An slapped the table hard.

Right now, Wang An Computer Company has not yet reached the point where it will be hurt. Although the personal computer market has greatly impacted the word processor market, it is still selling well.Moreover, the minicomputer developed by Wang An Computer Company was very popular and made a lot of money for the company.Therefore, Wang An Computer Company is still a very powerful company, which is also the confidence of Wang An's pride and conceit.

"Dad, since Chronos Li is unwilling to cooperate with us, we can only find other companies. Motorola also produces processors, and the performance of the processors is excellent, no worse than Intel's! With their strength, they can definitely specialize Design a powerful processor for Wang An Computer Company!!!" Wang Lie said.

Motorola is in the limelight, and laptop computers are popular all over the world. The brand awareness of "Motorola" has greatly increased, and at the same time, it has promoted the sales of other Motorola products.It is normal for Wang Lie to immediately think of Motorola processors.

Wang An nodded and said, "Well, you are right, then I will let you do the cooperation with Motorola."

"Okay!" Wang Lie said excitedly, then took his leave, and immediately prepared to go to Motorola.

Right now, Wang An's health is getting worse and worse. Now he intends to train Wang Lie and prepares him to take over.Therefore, many things were given to him in order to cultivate Wang Lie's prestige in the company.

Wang An hopes that "a tiger father will have no dogs", but in fact, Wang Lie's ability is limited and his performance is mediocre, so many people in the company do not accept him.Wang An hadn't abdicated yet, so everyone didn't say anything.But if Wang Lie is really going to succeed Wang An in running the company, there will definitely be many people who oppose it.

Wang An himself is a rare genius in the world who combines technology and management talents. He has gathered a group of people with different personalities and outstanding talents but are extremely difficult to adjust. These people have little or no contact with oriental culture. People, obey Wang An, but don't expect them to obey the mediocre Wang Lie, even though he is Wang An's son.The biggest asset of Wang An Computer Company is this group of people, their talent.For example, John Chambers of Cisco in his previous life was only a regional general manager of Wang An Computer Company.

Traditional family-style management is actually not feasible in foreign countries. It is naturally good if there are outstanding talents in the family.But no?Then, hiring excellent professional managers to manage the company is undoubtedly the most correct choice!

In this life, Wang An Computer Company may have suffered more blows, which made Wang An even more physically and mentally exhausted, and fell ill suddenly within a few days.

After Wang Lie negotiated cooperation with Motorola, he hurried back home.

"Dad, how is your health?"

"Don't worry, you won't die yet, just rest for a while." Wang An's face was pale, and his voice was weak.In fact, Wang An already knew that his health was failing and that it was time to retire.

"Tomorrow," Wang An said after taking a breath, "the board of directors meeting will be held tomorrow, and I plan to let you be the president of the company! I am sick and will recuperate at home from now on. Wang Lie, Wang An Computer Company will be handed over to you from now on!"

Wang Lie looked excited, held his hand, and said, "Dad, don't worry, I will definitely not let you down!"

The next day, Wang An recovered a lot and came to the company with Wang Lie.

In the conference room, the company directors and some executives have arrived.

Wang An sat at the head, and Wang Lie sat on his right.

"Hi everyone, I have called you here for this meeting today. Actually, I have something very important to announce!" Wang An said slowly, "I am old and sick, so I plan to retire .As for the candidate for the new president of the company, I will choose my son Wang Lie to take office!!!”

As soon as the words fell, the meeting room immediately became a vegetable market, and the noise was extremely loud. Everyone opposed Wang Lie's appointment as the company's president!

"Dr. Wang An, you are in poor health and you are going to retire. We can understand, but I don't think Wang Lie is the best candidate for the new company's successor!"

"That's right, Wang Lie's ability is far from enough to be the president!"

"Dr. Wang An, I suggest hiring an excellent professional manager!"

"..."

Wang Lie looked at the crowd, secretly remembering those who opposed him.

Wang An said at this time: "I am the founder of the company, and I have full control over the company. This matter is settled like this, and there is no need to discuss it too much. I believe that my children must have the ability to run the company!" !!"

When Wang An said this, everyone suddenly had nothing to say and fell silent.

The company is owned by Wang An's family, and they insist on doing it, "respecting the virtuous and not avoiding relatives", let their son be the president of the company, what can other people do.

Wang An held this meeting not to discuss with everyone, but to issue a notice.

Even if everyone is dissatisfied, they can only accept it.

On the day the meeting ended, Wang Lie's appointment notice was issued, and he officially became the president of Wang An Computer Company.

As soon as this news came out, the entire company couldn't help but have a huge shock, and it also caused great surprise in the industry and the media.
