After Zhang Hao became an official employee of Apple, the research progress of the entire project has been accelerated a lot.

A few days later, Tian Shuai was stunned to learn that Zhang Han had resigned from HP and joined Apple instead!
Many engineers sharpened their heads and wanted to squeeze into Hewlett-Packard, Zhang Hao actually resigned voluntarily...

"Tian Shuai, why don't you come to Apple too! I believe that Apple will be a company with great development potential!" Zhang Han smiled and lobbied his good friend. Tian Shuai is an indispensable management talent in the development and growth of an enterprise. With him at the helm, the possibility of Apple's success will be even greater! ! !

However, at this stage, Apple only has two full-time employees and one part-time employee. Tian Shuai is not very useful in it, so he shook his head and refused with a smile: "Hehe, Apple is still so small. , There is no use for me to go, let's talk about it when you can use me!"

"It will be!" At this moment, Li Zetian walked over from not far away, and said very confidently.

Tian Shuai was noncommittal, neither saying yes nor no, he smiled, "Then I wish Apple success! Alright, I'm off to work, see you two!"

Zhang Han watched as Tian Shuai got into a Ford and left, he sighed slightly.

Li Zetian smiled, patted him on the shoulder and said: "He is not from our computer field, so he naturally doesn't understand how valuable the things we are developing now! Let's go, work hard, and when we succeed, it will definitely make people Let him impress!!! At that time, it will not be too late to invite him to join our company. In addition, he is right in one point, we really don’t need him now! Only when a talent is placed in a suitable place can he shine Bright, what do you think?"

"Well, you're right!!!" Zhang Han nodded and replied.

In fact, Li Zetian also considered more issues. If Tian Shuai was invited to join Apple, how much salary and options would he have to give him? Thinking that his money was running out, he immediately dismissed the idea of ​​inviting Tian Shuai to join Apple.

"Dreams are doomed to travel alone. Since I have chosen this road, I have to go through both wind and rain!"

"Let's go, let's start the hard life of a lonely engineer!!!"

Li Zetian said to himself very optimistically.

……

……

Unlike MIST, which is crossing the river by feeling the stones, Apple develops according to the drawings designed by Li Zetian, which saves a lot of detours.

On August 8th, after more than two months of overtime development, so far, 15/4 of the entire project has been completed.In fact, there are only a few components in a computer, such as processors, memory, power supplies, motherboards, buses, etc., which are combined to form a computer.The main work of Li Zetian and others is to develop the main board, power supply, and bus, so that the various accessories of the computer can run perfectly.To tell the truth, if it wasn't for Li Zetian's strict requirements, striving for excellence, and maximizing the use of computer performance while reducing costs as much as possible, otherwise, Apple-l personal computers would have been produced long ago.

At noon that day, with the scorching sun hanging high, Li Zetian was doing research in the garage as usual.

"Wozniak will only come at night, Zhang Han's mother is sick, and he is put at home for two days to take care of his mother. It's a hot day, and I'm the only one working in the garage. It's hard to be a boss...Apple The research and development of the -l model personal computer is going well. At this time, I should start to think about production, sales, publicity and other issues! 'The smell of wine is also afraid of deep alleys', and publicity is especially important. If no one else knows that there is an Apple-l Why would you come to buy a computer?”

While Li Zetian was thinking about something, a very familiar voice suddenly came from outside: "Li Zetian!!!"

Li Zetian turned his head to look, and saw Yu Jingqiu standing at the garage door wearing a blue plaid shirt and dragging a large silver suitcase!Li Zetian quickly put down the work in his hands and went up to meet him.

"Why are you here?" Walking up to Yu Jingqiu, Li Zetian asked, reaching out his hand and gently wiping the sweat off her face, "And you didn't notify me when you came, so that I can pick you up! !” Li Zetian said with a slightly reproachful tone.

Yu Jingqiu smiled and said, "I want to give you a surprise!"

As she said, she walked into the garage, "This is the headquarters of Apple!" Li Zetian talked about some things about Apple when he was talking on the phone with Yu Jingqiu.

Li Zetian said quite proudly: "This is the most typical garage culture! Hewlett-Packard, Disney, and Ford all developed from a small garage, and our Apple company will be like them. I believe, Under my leadership, Apple will one day develop into the most eye-catching company in the world, and at that time, I will build the most amazing headquarters in the world!!!”

"I just like that you are full of confidence!!!" Yu Jingqiu kissed Li Zetian's face.

"You rushed over here as soon as you got off the plane?" Li Zetian asked.

Yu Jingqiu nodded, and said, "Well, yes. I haven't seen you for a long time, and I was anxious to see you, so I just rushed over with my suitcase."

Li Zetian was quite moved when he heard the words.

"Sit down and rest for a while, I'll pour you a glass of water!"

"Ok!"

While pouring water, Li Zetian thought, since he lives in the garage, he can't ask Yu Jingqiu to also live in the garage, and take her to the hotel to open a room later.

After Yu Jingqiu sat down, she looked at the garage curiously, then pointed to a machine, and asked, "Is this the Apple-1 personal computer?"

Li Zetian handed her the water glass and said, "That's right! However, it has not been fully completed yet, and a complete prototype will be produced at the beginning of next month! In addition, we need to design a beautiful box for it, so that it will attract people's attention. More users buy!"

Yu Jingqiu asked: "After the successful development of Apple-l, it will be sold to the outside world. Have you found accessories suppliers, computer manufacturers and distributors?"

"These are exactly what I'm going to do next!"

"Then didn't I come just in time? I can help you!!!" Yu Jingqiu laughed.

Li Zetian didn't treat Yu Jingqiu as an outsider, and nodded with a smile: "Okay, but the school starts in September, you have to go back and study hard!!!"

"Okay, I promise you!"

"Well, it's only the 15th now, and you can stay here for another 15 days," Li Zetian asked after a pause, "Have you rested? Rested, let's go to the hotel and find you a place to stay..."
