Life 1984

Chapter 556 20 billion US dollars!

Li Yunhai understood Shen Xiulan's words and couldn't help being shocked: "You mean, my sister might have had a relationship with Yue Hua?"

Shen Xiulan nodded seriously: "I guessed it! I came here the same way, the process of changing from a girl to a woman. I know that Yunfang looks a little different to me."

Li Yunhai has experienced so many women, but he has not found any difference between girls and women.

He also wanted to question Shen Xiulan, when Li Yunfang came out.

Shen Xiulan stood up and left with a smile, and glanced at Li Yunhai before leaving.

Li Yunhai understood and nodded towards her.

"Brother, please go back to your room and rest!" Li Yunfang dug out her clothes, "I want to take a shower and go to bed. Can we talk about the manuscript tomorrow?"

Li Yunhai said: "I'll take this computer and revise your manuscript, then print it out and find a few magazines to publish it."

"Okay, brother. How about you wait for me to do it?"

"Yunfang, sit down."

"Brother, that's it! We slept in the same bed that day. You know, there is no night in the extremely daytime environment. When we wanted to sleep, we could only take black plastic bags and cover the windows to create a Creating a dark environment is conducive to sleep.”

"Ahem, it's human nature for a man to marry and a woman to marry. If you have any questions, you can tell me."

"Brother!" Li Yunfang's snow-white face was covered with two moving blushes, and she said shyly, "Brother, Yue Hua and I, him, him!"

"Yes, doesn't he want to marry you?"

"Okay, let's talk about you and Yue Hua first."

Li Yunfang was afraid that her eldest brother would be worried, and she had always wanted to find someone to talk to about such a big matter. As for the people in her family, she and her eldest brother had the closest relationship. Ever since she was a child, she would tell her eldest brother anything that was bothering her.

"Brother, I was following a beautiful penguin and accidentally fell into an ice hole."

"Really not? Is there something you can't tell me?"

Li Yunfang smiled shyly and said, "Brother, I really volunteered. Don't embarrass Yue Hua."

"You help me, what's the point of not having a career?"

"Did he bully you?" Li Yunhai said in a deep tone, "If you didn't do it voluntarily, I would definitely kill him!"

"Oh, what then?"

Li Yunfang was startled, shook her head quickly and said, "Brother, don't get me wrong, it was an accident between him and me."

"Brother, we were in Antarctica and couldn't contact you. We were out of danger later, so I thought there was no need to tell you, lest you worry in vain."

"He was afraid that I would freeze, so he took off his clothes and pants to keep out the cold and put them on for me."

"Such a big thing happened! Why didn't you tell me?"

"Haha, this guy is not bad!"

"But my career has just started. Once a woman gets married and has children, won't she have to delay her work?"

"Huh? Are you freezing?"

"Did anything special happen during this trip to Antarctica?"

Li Yunhai smiled slightly, thinking that his sister was really sincere.

"Silly girl!" Li Yunhai patted the back of his sister's hand and said warmly, "It's human nature for men to love each other and women to love each other. How can I stop you from falling in love? Yue Hua has been pursuing you, but you are not interested in him. . Now that you have a relationship, this is a match made in heaven. When do you plan to get married?"

"Because you are going to Antarctica, I checked the relevant information. Don't interrupt, what happened next?"

"He, he proposed marriage to me. But I'm not ready to get married yet."

"The water inside was really freezing cold. I felt like my whole body was numb from the cold. I couldn't move even if I wanted to. My teeth were chattering with the cold. I couldn't even shout. My body no longer felt like my own."

“我知道，南极的极夜是每年3月21日到9月23日；极昼是每年9月23日到次年3月21日。而北极的极夜和极昼是相反的。所以夏天是不能到南极旅游的，因为那边是极夜。”

"Oh, it's understandable that my sister-in-law and uncle Dun will come to my aid."

"Brother, I -" Li Yunfang hesitated, pursed her lips, lowered her head, and said in a voice like a gnat, "Brother, do you know something?"

"Accident?" Li Yunhai was shocked, "How could something unexpected happen to this good thing that a man and a woman want to do? Tell me quickly, what is the situation?"

"Yunfang, you are not young anymore. You don't plan to take the postgraduate entrance examination anyway. Why don't you get married as soon as possible?"

"Something special? Nothing!"

"Huh? So, you slept together that day?"

"elder brother?"

"Brother, it's like this. The day after we arrived in Antarctica, we went outside to take pictures together. It was the first time I saw the polar day, the first time I saw glaciers, polar bears and penguins. I was very happy and ran around everywhere. Brother , do you know which months are the polar days in Antarctica?”

"It's so scary! What happened next?"

"I, I volunteered. I know what that means, but I was really touched at the time and felt that he was a person worth entrusting me with for life. In order to carry me back to the camp, he used all his strength and would rather put himself on the line Even if I’m freezing, I don’t want to be cold. Brother, do you know? When I lay on his back, I felt like I was lying on your back when I was a child. It’s very warm and safe.”

"He carried me on his back and returned to the camp at our country's Antarctic research station, where there was electric heating. When we returned indoors, our bodies were frozen and we lay on the bed unable to move."

"I'm safe now, so you know that nothing will happen to me. It was Yue Hua who rescued me later."

"Brother, I was frozen and couldn't move. He helped me put on my pants."

"Getting married?"

"Wow, brother, you are so awesome! I didn't know this knowledge until I got there."

"Brother, I'm not happy when you say that. I do things for you, but I do the work myself, don't I? I'm not eating your food for free."

"Okay, okay, I understand. Your sister-in-law is about to have three children, and it won't delay her work."

"In this case, then, brother, an elder brother is like a father, you can help me make the decision!"

Li Yunhai smiled and said: "Okay, I understand, is this good? We will get married during the Chinese New Year this year."

"So urgent?"

"After the New Year, you are one year older, you are not young anymore!"

"Brother, okay then!"

"Okay, you have a good rest. We will discuss your marriage in detail after we return to China. By the way, have you taken any measures?"

"What measures?"

"Silly you, of course it's birth control!"

"No. None of us expected that this would happen over there! No one was prepared."

"Huh? Then hurry up and get married! Maybe you are already married!"

"Brother, do you want to consult Yue Hua first?"

"If he dares to disagree, I will chop him into pieces and feed them to the penguins in Antarctica!"

"Hee! By the time we get to Antarctica, the meat will be sour!"

Li Yunhai laughed dumbly, waved his hand, and returned to the room with his sister's laptop.

He read through the Antarctic diary written by his sister, and felt that it was sincere and vivid, and he told an interesting story in just a few strokes.

Li Yunhai thought to himself that the eldest sister really has a talent for writing.

He read the summary article carefully, made some modifications, and then shortened it into an article of more than 3000 words for tomorrow's promotion.

There was a soft knock on the door.

Li Yunhai stood up and opened the door, and saw Shen Xiulan standing pretty outside the door.

"You haven't slept yet?" Shen Xiulan had taken a shower, her face was clean, and she exuded a quiet body fragrance.

Li Yunhai was very drunk when he heard this and pulled her in: "Waiting for you."

Shen Xiulan groaned and fell softly into his arms.

Li Yunhai held her soft waist and kissed her deeply.

"Have you asked Yunfang? What did she say?" Shen Xiulan asked.

"I asked, and you guessed it right. She is indeed with Yue Hua, and they have had a relationship."

"Hee, really?"

"How did you tell?"

"Yunfang's walking posture is wrong. Girls and women walk with different legs."

"Huh? Really?"

"I felt it myself. Ever since I had a relationship with you, my walking posture was really different. Later I looked at my sister's walking posture and found that it was also different from mine."

"Did you see that? Does Xiaoling have a boyfriend?"

"No! She must still be a girl."

"She's not young anymore. If she really wants to find a boyfriend, you shouldn't stop her."

"I'm too lazy to take care of her business. Isn't she your secretary now? She is under your control."

"Are you too busy being my secretary? Look at all of them, they are all single!"

"It has nothing to do with whether they are busy or not. It's just that if they come into contact with men like you every day, it will be difficult for them to find a good man. Whether they admit it or not, they will regard you as a mate in their hearts. They are very close to you. It’s so close that it seems you can easily reach it, but it’s actually far away from you and completely out of your reach. This will give them unrealistic fantasies.”

"Really? I never thought about it that way. In your opinion, Xiaoling should be transferred out of my secretary's office?"

"That's not necessary, she hasn't figured it out yet! She's been acting silly all day long." The two kissed each other again.

Li Yunhai picked up Shen Xiulan.

Shen Xiulan wrapped her legs around his waist and hung her hands around his neck.

Li Yunhai held her hips and walked towards the room inside.

The CES show has come to the last day in a blink of an eye.

Four days was really too busy and too short.

Because the time is short and the passenger flow is extremely large, it seems tense every moment.

Lin Xiaofeng and others contacted Dell, HP, AST, Compaq and other companies to sell Longteng chips to them, but the other parties did not agree immediately and said they wanted to ask the headquarters for instructions.

Foreign companies, like domestic companies, also need to hold meetings to resolve major issues.

Li Yunhai sent out several more people to distribute promotional brochures about lithography machines and chips to every exhibitor at the electronics show.

Lithography machines and chips have a wide range of applications and are not only used by computer manufacturers.

Li Yunhai cast a wide net, hoping to catch a few small fish and shrimps.

In the morning, Li Yunhai contacted several large magazines, mailed the articles and photos written by his sister, and asked them to publish them on the most prominent page.

North American newspapers and magazines are all commercially operated. The first is to publish good articles that are truly valuable to enhance one’s own strength and also boost magazine sales. The second is to accept paid soft articles, which are expensive.

When Li Yunhai wanted to publish an article with them, he always negotiated the price directly.

After so many years of cooperation, Li Yunhai has long been familiar with certain reporters from these newspapers and magazines. Just hang up the phone and the other party will know what to do.

It's just that most of these magazines are periodicals, or at least weekly magazines, which means they won't be published until next week.

After Li Yunhai finished his work, he still worked as a salesman.

He had just finished demonstrating the use of the server to his customers when he saw several foreign businessmen walking in.

Li Yunhai had a gut feeling that these people had some background, so he stepped forward to greet them.

"Hello, how can I help you?" Li Yunhai asked politely.

"Hello!" The leader was a bald, blond, middle-aged man, but his hair was combed very tastefully and he did not deliberately hide his Mediterranean hairstyle.

Li Yunhai asked: "Sir, do you want to see our products? Our main business is office equipment——"

"How is your lithography machine?" the bald man asked.

"Have you seen our advertisement, sir?" Li Yunhai said with a smile, "Our photolithography machine is world-class and can produce all the chips you want. Of course, the premise is that you have authorization."

The bald man let out a few strange and unruly laughs, revealing a pair of dark-grey teeth.

Li Yunhai asked: "What kind of company are you? What kind of chips do you need to produce?"

The bald man touched his chin and asked, "Can you produce chips for military use?"

Li Yunhai looked at them with a serious look on his face and said, "Are you from the military supplies factory?"

"Hahaha!" The bald man laughed again, shrugged his shoulders and said, "Can't I ask?"

Li Yunhai smiled and said: "Of course. As I said, our photolithography machine can produce any chip. Whether it is for aerospace or aircraft carrier."

"Oh, great. How much does one cost?" the bald man asked.

Li Yunhai said: "$3500 million per unit."

"It's not expensive!" said the bald man, "We want ten units!"

"Okay!" Li Yunhai was very happy when he saw the big order and said, "Which country are you from?"

"In the Middle East, we will tell you the specific address in the purchase contract."

"Middle East?" Li Yunhai's eyelids twitched subconsciously!

That's a restless area!

One of the most disturbing places in the world!

Logically speaking, Li Yunhai is just a businessman. In business, if others want to buy his machines, he will sell them, regardless of what others use these machines to make.

Moreover, chips are not the only machines for making weapons. With chips, weapons may not necessarily be made.

Compared with photolithography machines, gas tanks are more lethal.

Thinking of this, Li Yunhai said: "Okay! Can you sign the contract today?"

"Well, let's come over and take a look first. If possible, you can leave us a phone number and we will contact you again."

"Sir, today is the last day of the CES Electronics Show and it will end soon. If you want to contact us in the future, you can only use other methods."

"Are you free that evening? Which hotel are you staying in? We will contact you after asking our superiors for instructions."

"Oh, that's okay. Please make a decision as soon as possible."

Li Yunhai took out his business card and left his contact information in the casino with the other party.

Ten lithography machines, a turnover of US$3.5 million, Li Yunhai didn't want to miss it.

The other party took Li Yunhai's business card, waved to him, said goodbye, and then left.

Several more foreign businessmen walked into the booth and struck up a conversation with Gong Li.

They claimed to be from Motorola and were looking for the boss of Sihai Group.

Gong Li brought them to Li Yunhai.

The man came and said his name was Frank, and he was here to discuss chip licensing on behalf of Motorola.

Motorola also produces chips and was one of the early chip giants.

In the 20s, if you wanted to design a powerful PC computer, you needed to choose a 80-bit processor architecture.

In fact, at the time, there were three main choices: Intel 8088, Zilog Z8000, or Motorola 68k.

At that time, Apple chose to cooperate with Motorola after comparison.

But later, Intel gained market dominance with its 100MHz speed and excellent energy efficiency.

The Motorola 90k series of chips that led Macintosh into the 68s failed to keep up with development.

Faced with the threat of monopoly, Apple teamed up with long-time partner Motorola and unlikely ally IBM to use unity to fight the forces of capitalism.

As a result, the AIM Alliance composed of Apple, IBM, and Motorola came into being.

The news that Apple and Sihai Group are going to cooperate has reached the ears of Motorola.

Motorola can't sit still.

If Apple really abandons them and cooperates with Sihai Group, Motorola's performance will definitely decline.

This year, Motorola's big brother has become popular all over the world, but they don't want to give up the PC chip business.

Apple must find a higher-end chip architecture.

The X86 architecture has had a fatal flaw since its birth: it uses the CISC architecture.

At this time, the Longteng X64 chip came out, adopting a new architecture and meeting Apple's demands.

In order to continue the AIM alliance, Motorola cannot let Sihai Group cooperate with Apple, so they want to obtain the authorization of Longteng chip, produce X64 chips themselves, and continue cooperation with the AIM alliance.

Li Yunhai knew their purpose as soon as he heard what the other party said.

Therefore, Li Yunhai rejected Motorola's authorization application.

How could a company as good as Apple refuse to cooperate and then give up the fat they got to Motorola?

Li Yunhai is not that stupid.

His refusal this time has completely rewritten the future semiconductor landscape!

Motorola can no longer work with Apple.

But it also posed major hidden dangers to Sihai Group.

Later, when Li Yunhai wanted to enter the field of mobile phone communications, he inevitably got into trouble with Motorola, and they became enemies because of this, and staged a drama of love and hatred.

This is a posthumous matter and will be discussed later.

But that day, the Motorola representative left with anger.

Li Yunhai and the others also concluded their trip to CES.

In four days, Li Yunhai and the others received a total of US$20 billion in orders!

Most of this is contributed by lithography machines and chips.

That night, when Li Yunhai returned to the hotel, he received a call from a stranger: "Mr. Li, we consulted with you today and want to purchase ten of your lithography machines. Are you free now? Let's meet. ?”

Li Yunhai was overjoyed and agreed: "Okay, where can we meet?"

The other party replied: "There is a bar on the first floor of the hotel where you are staying. We will wait for you in the bar."

Li Yunhai said hello.

He called Su Hong and took Zhuang Yong with him, and the three of them went downstairs to the bar on the first floor.

This is a bar with a show.

When Li Yunhai and the others came in, they couldn't help but be stunned.

Because of the size of the bar, apart from the strippers who were performing on the stage, there was only one table of people sitting there, which was the group of people who came to see him during the day.
