Reborn America, this is my time

Chapter 57 Sincerity is the greatest nirvana
Now that Master Barbara said that California encourages patent inventors to make micro-innovations on patents that they do not own, Ethan Jones no longer hesitated. After returning home, he immediately called Chuck Pedro and sent the patent to him. The good news that the problem has been resolved is shared with the other party.

At first, Chuck Paido didn't believe it, but after Ethan said that his full name was Ethan Jones, he was the inventor of "Snake Game". If they didn't believe it, they could come to California to verify it for themselves. Chuck Paido immediately thanked him, and said that he would bring his colleagues over immediately, and hoped that Ethan could help contact Barbara, and they wanted to thank them personally.

Immediately afterwards, the next morning, the R&D team of 6502 ordered a flight ticket from Philadelphia to San Francisco.

That afternoon, Ethan Jones, who came to pick him up, saw a group of people in suits and ties at San Francisco International Airport.

Because we have been in contact before, we can talk happily after we meet just by recognizing our faces.

And after inviting everyone to board the car, take them to Stanford, and meet with Master Barbara who has already said hello...

This group of extremely excited guys immediately opened their carry-on luggage, took out the gifts they had prepared and handed them over.

There are Pennsylvania specialties full of heart, and handmade chocolates in the promotional items in Hershey's exhibition store;

With Philadelphia characteristics, the 1876 World Expo commemorative album issued by the Philadelphia Museum of Art to celebrate the United States becoming the host of the World Expo for the first time, and the special medal issued this year to commemorate the [-]th anniversary of the World Expo held in the United States;

There is a replica model of the Liberty Bell, which symbolizes the independence of the United States;

There is also a framed chip, which is a Motorola 6800 with the name of Chuck Padow engraved on it. In his words, this is the first batch of chips made by Motorola. It is not sold to the outside world, and the R&D personnel themselves Collet.

When Barbara saw these gifts, she immediately smiled and said, Chuck Paido and the others are too kind.

She just did something insignificant, and Chuck Paido and the others are the real heroes.

And after Chuck Paido and the others persisted, Barbara also accepted some gifts.

She likes chocolates, the Liberty Bell model, and the World Expo commemorative book, but she returned the 6800.

In her words - "This is the military medal that the world thanks you for. I can't accept this thing."

As a result, Chuck Paido and the others could accept it, and after a few words to the guest, Barbara also carefully explained to the 6502 design team the legality of the 6502 product in California law.

When the 6502 team saw the legal flow chart that allowed them to sell legally, several big men sobbed. Immediately afterwards, a group of eight people stood up immediately and bowed to Barbara.

"Ms. Babcock, thank you very much for your help."

"We will remember your kindness. If there is anything we need to do in the future, please feel free to contact us."

"Oh~ you are too polite~ I just did what a legal practitioner should do." Barbara helped them up with a smile, and said, "Your success is my greatest harvest, because by that time, I You can also enjoy the changes brought about by technology.”

"Yes, that day will come soon." Chuck Paido quickly promised.

For some reason, Ethan, who witnessed this scene with his own eyes, was very moved.

He might not be able to touch the realm of people like Chuck Paido in his entire life.

He couldn't understand it, but...

He supports.

And while he was silent, Evelyn on the side kicked him with her elbow and handed him a pack of tissues.

"Why?" Ethan asked strangely.

"You cried," Evelyn whispered.

"Oh, I didn't, it's sand in my eyes." Ethan quickly wiped the corners of his eyes with his hands.

It was fine if he didn't explain, but Evelyn laughed when he explained.

"Hmm~ Sand has entered~ I believe it, I believe it~ After all, this is California~ There are deserts everywhere~"

…………

Ethan thought that the matter of MOS 6502 had come to an end here.After all, the issue of the chip's patent rights has been resolved, and the next step is to wait for Chuck Paido and the others to bring the 6502 product to California, and then Ethan will go to them to discuss cooperation.

No way, who made these guys come and go quickly?

I flew over from Philadelphia that day and flew back that night without stopping for a moment.

But when July [-]th came a few days later, Ethan, who was staying at home, unexpectedly received a call from them.

After a few pleasantries, Chuck Paido, who was far away in Pennsylvania, asked, "Ethan, I want to ask you something. Do you plan to make a computer?"

"Uh... yes." Ethan thought for a while and admitted.

Chuck Paido asked again: "So, the authorized production you told me before, do you want to produce your own chips and make your own computer?"

"Oh, it's not like that."

Ethan answered this question very quickly, "Chuck, the computer thing is what my friend wants to do, that is, Woz who asked you to buy chips before. What I want to do is actually all business related to chips, because In my opinion, an excellent CPU will not only allow computers to enter the homes of thousands of people, but it will also have an impact on some other industries."

"For example, the game industry I am involved in, you should know Professor Ralph Bell? The home game console he designed does not have a CPU, so sometimes I think, if the CPU is brought into the home What about game consoles? In that case, we may be able to bring more happiness to the people.”

Ethan's words made the other party fall into silence.

A moment later, there was a burst of laughter from the handset of the phone.

"Ethan, thank you, thank you, thank you for trusting our chips."

"I called you today mainly to find out if you would like to join us."

"After we came back, we informed the board of directors of how the MOS 6502 could be sold smoothly. After we communicated with each other, we decided to set up a separate company in California and buy the MOS 6502 chip. will be protected by California law."

"Since the company we established separately in California only produces and operates MOS 6502, the company structure is very simple. MOS will invest 200 million yuan to purchase production lines and raw materials for chip production, and hold shares for 80.00%, the remaining 20.00%, I wonder if you are interested?"

"This share is considered as a gift from us, and you don't need to pay for it."

"Of course, we are all friends, so we are more honest. We gave you shares because we thought you were a good person. When others questioned the authenticity of our chips, your friend Woz believed us, and you even more Help us solve the legal problem of 6502, your kindness makes us want to thank from the bottom of our hearts.”

"The second point is that we hope to be sheltered by Stanford. The scientific research circle is so big, no one does not know Stanford, Fred Terman is a good principal, and it is our honor to start a company next to Stanford. Moreover, We also heard that your sister is a student of Professor Vinton Cerf? Oh...we didn't mean to inquire about your background, but we admire Professor Vinton Cerf's spirit of sharing...if there is a chance We also want to communicate with him..."

When Ethan hung up the phone, disbelief was written all over his face!

What the hell!

MOS and Chuck Paido are willing to give him 20.00% of the new company directly?

What is this special code!
Although he made it clear that he was grateful for his contribution to the patent issue of the 6502 chip and wanted to get Stanford's asylum, but what is the difference between directly donating shares and doing charity?

wrong!

You don't even do that for charity!

After marveling for a while, Ethan also felt a little emotional——

"Perhaps for those engaged in technology, sincerity is the greatest nirvana?"

Taking a deep breath, putting away his sigh, Ethan, who returned to the second floor, knocked on the door of his sister's bedroom.

After pushing away, he found that his sister was reading a book, and after he told Chuck Paido's decision, Evelyn didn't even raise her head, and said directly: "Since they are willing to give it to you, then you can accept it." Come down."

"I said before that scientific research is based on a lot of money, so you don't have to worry about it."

"That's not what I meant." Ethan said, "I mean, give you half?"

This proposal made Evelyn pause with her right hand, raised her head slightly, and said with a smile, "Why do you give me half?"

"You already have a part in it!" Ethan said, "Although I'm a bit snobby, I still know who treats me well!"

"Hahaha~" Ethan's emphasis made Evelyn laugh a few times, and said, "Oh Ethan, can you stop talking about such boring things in front of me? If you really love money, "Snake Game "Will you share half of the proceeds with me?"

"I see~ You are the distribution according to work in the primitive society!"

"If you think it's wrong, then go read more books and don't argue with me here."

Perhaps because she didn't want to continue on this topic, Evelyn said again: "MOS will give you equity, and you can hold it. If you really make money, you can do whatever you want, and don't worry about me."

"The income from "Snake Game" is a lot, and I have to find a way to avoid taxes, otherwise I will pay half of it to the IRS next year, which will make me feel distressed to death."

"If you really want to thank me, if I have a research topic in the future, you can vote for me."

"At that time, I won't be polite to you. I can burn all the money you have."

'So crazy? '

Ethan was stunned for a moment, and didn't force it anymore, "Okay, okay, then we'll talk about this later."

At the same time, he also asked, "Where is Barbara?"

Evelyn understood what Ethan was talking about, and said directly: "Barbara's thanks... put it after the official sale of 6502. Besides, she doesn't need any special gifts. When she needs our help in the future, we will Just help her as much as you can."

'so? Ethan took a deep breath and said with a smile, "Favour? It's the hardest thing in the world to pay back."

When saying this, Ethan just sighed casually.

But in Evelyn's view, Ethan's behavior was too boring.

Shaking his head, he smiled and said, "Ethan, why do you make things so complicated?"

"It's hard to repay favors, but it's also the easiest thing to draw people into relationships~"

"If you put a price on it, then you will definitely feel a headache, but if you live a normal life, then you will find it very interesting."

Speaking of which, Evelyn didn't bother to talk to Ethan, waved her hand and said, "Okay, okay, don't bother me here."

"I'm hungry~you go and bake me a pizza~"

"I want to eat beef~"

The expulsion made Ethan laugh and shake his head.

"Yes, I am happy to serve you, my sister."

He closed the door.
