Chapter 25 School Song
In the evening, Bill Gates treated guests to dinner, and Li Zetian called Yu Jingqiu to kill the big family together.

After dinner, Paul Allen was ready to return to Boston.

Li Zetian watched him go, and said meaningfully: "Work hard, Paul, I will look for you in the future!"

Paul Allen smiled and said, "Okay, I'm looking forward to your dropping out!"

"Oh, Paul, don't keep talking about dropping out of school, you see, my girlfriend is not happy!"

Yu Jingqiu smiled and didn't speak.

Paul Allen laughed out loud and waved goodbye to everyone.

"Bill, Steve, you go back to the dormitory first, and I will take Susan back."

"Okay, then let's go first."

Bill Gates and Steve Ballmer responded and left first.

Yu Jingqiu asked: "Is that Paul Allen very good?" She could see that Li Zetian, who was full of arrogance in his bones, attached great importance to Paul Allen.

"Yes, it's very powerful, it's a talent!" Li Zetian nodded, and then added, "He's a genius engineer!"

"Oh!"

Li Zetian is in a very happy mood. There are more and more talents gathered around him. Starting a company is not just a matter of one person alone. You must have a strong team.Not to mention Bill Gates, the technology is great, the management company is great, and he can stand on his own.Paul Allen is so skilled that he could be the chief technology officer.Steve Ballmer is talented and sociable, assisting Bill Gates in managing the company and handling external affairs.

In the future, Microsoft will not be the only company under Li Zetian's name. It is impossible for him to do everything by himself. Knowing people well is the most important thing for an excellent entrepreneur to do.In order to retain talents like Bill Gates, Li Zetian is willing to give up 10%-20% of the shares.In addition, Bill Gates has a strong family background, not to mention anything else, his mother is the director of the HSD State University, the first female director of the First Interstate Bank, and the chairman of the Executive Council of the National United Way. The relationship between Microsoft and IBM is very good, and the reason why Microsoft can cooperate with IBM is that Bill Gates' mother is the bridge!Of course, the BASIC compiler developed by Microsoft has become an industry standard, which is also an important point why IBM takes a fancy to Microsoft.

A few days later, it will be April 4st. On this day, Intel finally released the 1 processor.

When Li Zetian saw the news, he was so excited.

In the afternoon, I called Intel to prepare to buy one.

"Hello, this is Intel Corporation!"

"Hello, I want to buy an Intel-8080 microprocessor!" Li Zetian said.

"May I ask which company you belong to? Our company's Intel-8080 microprocessor is not sold to individuals, only to enterprises!"

I'm going to fuck your sister, you're so hypocritical! ! !

Hearing this, Li Zetian couldn't help complaining in his heart.He has indeed established a company, the registered Chinese name is Zhetian Company, and the registered English name is Umbrella (foreign registration must be registered with an English name), which is the umbrella company that people are familiar with in previous lives! ! !

Umbrella Company or Zhetian Company is the parent company of all Li Zetian's future companies. He will hold 100% of the shares, and because it is an offshore company, others do not know who the shareholders behind this company are.Li Zetian is currently using the school dormitory phone to call Intel, which can easily reveal his identity. Since the other party does not conduct personal business, he hangs up the phone directly and thinks of other ways.

In fact, this is no wonder for Intel, because the chips at that time were too expensive, and usually only enterprises could afford them. Intel is a manufacturer specializing in enterprise-level chips, and it is impossible to open personal services for a few people.Back then, when Steve Wozniak designed the Apple-|computer, because it was not easy to buy the Intel-8080 microprocessor, and the Intel-8080 was too expensive, the wholesale price for the enterprise alone was $375, so he chose The cheaper MOS-6502.

MOS-6502 is a product developed after Motorola genius engineer Chuck Pedell led six engineers to MOS Technology Company.Chuck Pedel felt that the Motorola 6800 processor was too expensive, and suggested that the company develop a cheap processor. However, the management thought that since the 6800 was so profitable, why should they get a cheap CPU to compete for their own market? Naturally, they rejected it Pedel's suggestion.

As a result, in the second half of 1975, the MOS-6502 was born, and the price was only 25 US dollars, which was 6800/1 of the Motorola 7 and 8080/1 of the Intel 15. Although MOS-6502 is cheap, it is also a very good 8-bit microprocessor. It supports a maximum memory of 64KB. Its main frequency is the same as that of 6800, which is 1MHz. However, because 6502 has an instruction pipeline, its performance is significantly better than that of MOS-6800. [-].

MOS-6502 is so cheap, how can Motorola 6800 and Intel 8080 play happily?Had to make a big price cut.

Of course Li Zetian wanted to use MOS-6502 to make Apple computers, but others hadn't produced them yet, so he was helpless, so he had to use Intel-8080 first.However, Li Zetian had thought about it a long time ago, and first developed the Apple-8080 personal computer with simple functions using the Intel-8800. As long as it is released earlier than the Altair [-], Apple-[-] will surely make Apple a legend in the industry with the gimmick of the world's first personal computer. , thus making a fortune.

New technologies and new functions don't have to be brought out all at once, otherwise, what highlights will there be in future product upgrades?

Wait for MOS-1975 to be released in 6502, and then use it to develop the classic Apple-ll in history.

At the same time, the acquisition of MOS technology company.

You know, Nintendo's FC red and white game console uses the MOS-6502 microprocessor.Li Zetian will enter the game industry sooner or later, he is a man who wants to destroy Nintendo and Sony! ! !
Just when Li Zetian hung up the phone, a little depressed, Yu Jingqiu brought a person to Li Zetian's dormitory.

This person is also a Chinese, aged 30, of medium build, with a pair of glasses.

Yu Jingqiu introduced: "This is my cousin - Tang Jiawei, he wants to discuss something with you!"

"Hi, nice to meet you, I'm Li Zetian!"

Since he is Yu Jingqiu's cousin, of course Li Zetian couldn't neglect and greeted him warmly.

"Hello, to be honest, I came this time to ask you to promise me something!" Tang Jiawei said straight to the point.

"Sit down first, let's talk about things slowly, of course I am willing to help where I can."

Li Zetian invited him to sit on the sofa, and poured him a glass of water.

Tang Jiawei said: "I saw the song you sang on New Year's Eve - "My Chinese Heart". I think it is a song full of patriotism!"

"Thank you for your compliment, but if you have something to say, just say it!" Li Zetian smiled.

"Well, let me just say it straight, I want to ask your permission to authorize this song to my school as the school song!!!"

"School song?" Li Zetian was taken aback for a moment, then asked, "What school?"

"I want to build a school that teaches Chinese and writes Chinese characters!"

Speaking of this, Tang Jiawei couldn't help sighing, "You know, there are many Chinese Americans in the United States, but they can't even speak the most basic Chinese, and they can't even write the most basic Chinese characters. I think I need to do something !!!Although we are in a foreign country, we Chinese must not forget our roots, our roots, and our own language!!!”

Li Zetian couldn't help being shocked when he heard the words!
