Reborn America, this is my time

Chapter 134 Walking on Two Legs

"MFxxk?"

"Nolan Bushnell got fired?"

"Mi Luohua's top management was also bloodbathed by Philips?"

"real or fake?"

When Ethan Jones heard Julis Noble's report, he was shocked!

Although he knew that when he changed "Space Invaders" into "Star Wars" and put it on the market, it was really a stab in the main artery for Mirov and Atari, but Warner The direct cleaning with Philips is a bit exaggerated, right?

After all, even he himself felt that the failure of New Generation and Apollo had nothing to do with the operations of Atari and Mirov, it was purely—

He is great!
hehehe~
He Ethan Jones is such an honest good boy!
"Yes, Warner and Philips have made a big change in the management of Atari and Mirov. In addition to the dismissal of the top management, they also hired external accountants to check the accounts."

"Because they suspect that there is something wrong with the accounts of Atari and Mirov."

"Judging from the current situation, Warner and Philips intend to vent their anger."

"They can't afford to have a new product with no name."

"Atari announced that the R&D funds for the new generation are as high as 300 million, and Mirohua announced that the Apollo's R&D funds are as high as 420 million. At the same time, their first batch of production is 2000 units. The entire project The total cost will not be less than [-] million."

"That's not including their crazy acquisitions of other game companies before."

'2000? '

This number made Ethan feel a little bit emotional.

Although he didn't know how much loss his birth had caused Atari and Mirov, but if a project lost 2000 million, it would indeed make a company reshuffle the management.

Because no matter how inflation is, the dollar in this era is very valuable.

However, the opponent's reorganization is a good thing for Ethan.

That means he has time to polish his console!

After groping in the drawer, I found a pre-written document and pushed it in front of Julis Noble, "Here is a document for the recruitment of R&D personnel, please take a look, and then pass it to Damio Di Ann, he is in charge of this matter, and you will assist from the side."

"You need to pay attention to one thing, that is, our recruitment involves two categories..."

Yes, since the start of the year when he was intimidated by Atari and Mirov's home consoles, Ethan has already made a plan for the company's development after the big hit of "Star Wars".

In his view, the company's R&D department has to be formed in two directions.

The first direction is game production.

When a company is driven by creative content, the more people in the creative department, the better.Although Ethan still has a lot of game ideas in his head, but at the same time he has to admit that with a human brain, he is bound to forget a lot.In this case, put away the arrogance of the traveler and face everyone squarely, so as not to be kicked in the ass by the natives here.

As for the second direction, that is the research and development of home consoles.

He talked to Evelyn about this project, and the girl said she would be in charge.Not only that, but she also said that it is impossible for this project to encounter any problems in the research and development, because their technical consultant is Ralph Bell. When standing behind them, the birth of their CPU mainframe, it will only be a matter of time.

However, even if Evelyn is very confident, the recruitment related to it still has to be started.

As for the personnel, they are naturally Stanford's own people~
After all, they have an agreement with the school!
After explaining these things clearly, Ethan remembered another question.

"How far has our lawsuit with them progressed?"

Ethan didn't care about the lawsuit because he didn't think it was important.

This kind of dispute over the infringement of the right of reputation is nothing more than gossip.

And Julis Noble's report also confirmed his thoughts, "Our lawyer stepped on time to submit evidence to the court to prove that Warner and Philips' Atari and Mirowa launched the public opinion attack on us first, Our counterattack is just a response to their tsunami of public opinion."

"The entire case is currently in mediation because the court in San Jose found our testimony sound, but Philips and Warner didn't agree."

"If nothing else, it's only a matter of time before we get to the dock."

"Then do I need to appear in court?" Ethan asked.

"In principle, it is necessary, but..." Julis Noble shrugged: "When the principal came that day, he said that he had already greeted us, and we can have the lawyer represent us in court..."

"He felt there was absolutely no point in wasting our time in court."

"Professor Barbara Babcock also said when she called that she thought it was a farce, and she had asked her friends in the California courts to keep an eye on the case, and if someone messed up...she There is no guarantee that those people will continue to work in the future..."

"Oh... I like the result." Ethan nodded with a smile.

Now that the professor and the principal have repeatedly expressed their friendship, Ethan can no longer stay in his lair.

After returning home that night, he communicated with his sister, and then both of them made a formal plan for the upcoming summer vacation——

The two will visit Principal Fred Terman first, and thank the Principal for his care and help;

Then I flew directly to Washington to meet with Professor Barbara Babcock, who had lost her summer vacation. While giving gifts, they could also meet the needs of the children of various officials in the US DoD;
Finally, after turning to Arlington on the edge of Washington, if everything is convenient, the two would like to visit the world's largest single administrative building at five corners under the leadership of Professor Vinton Cerf of……

Plans are made quickly, but their actions are actually faster.

Early the next morning, Ethan went to San Jose to buy gifts according to his sister's request. In the afternoon, he went to Stanford and delivered the gifts to the old principal.

For the arrival of the two, the old principal was very happy, and invited them into the room. After chatting for a while, the old principal who really controlled the resources of Stanford University also mentioned the last message.

"Isn't the office space in your headquarters a bit small?"

"Any ideas for a change?"

"Which building in the industrial park do you like, just tell me directly."

"If you don't like it, it doesn't matter. We have a lot of land in Stanford. I will lease it to you for 99 years at the price of one dollar. No matter what you build, we can Accept, after all, your Destiny Game is our star enterprise at Stanford!"

"With you here, Stanford's future will be even better!"

The old principal was really happy.

Now who in the circle does not know that his school-enterprise joint construction plan has already achieved something!

The popularity of the Destiny game for two consecutive years is the best proof!

Regardless of whether it is "Pac-Man" that has attracted the attention of the academic circle or "Star Wars" that has caused a sensation in North America, it is the embodiment of the ultimate dream-making ability!
With such a vibrant role model, there will be a lot to say about the school's promotion of entrepreneurship and employment arrangements in the future!
For Ethan and Evelyn, it is indeed a good idea to change the venue. After all, their headquarters does have dozens of people now.

He smiled and agreed, saying that he would watch it when he went back, and after uncovering the matter, the old principal brought up a new topic, and this topic... made Ethan narrow his eyes.

Because, the old principal said, "There is one more thing."

"Your Destiny Game has launched two popular games in a row. It is the most popular company in the game circle, and it can even be said to be the most popular company in our country in the past two years. So recently, people have been looking for me."

"They're from Wall Street."

"I want to get to know..."

"Do you have any plans to go public?"

The old headmaster looked at the two with a smile.

In the eyes under the lens, there is a curiosity of inquiry.
