Siheyuan: My Northeastern Farmhouse

Chapter 435 Are you kidding?

"how is this possible?"

When Wang An heard this, he laughed dumbly, as if he had heard some fantasy, and waved his hands coquettishly, "Mr. Gu, I admit that your point of view is very novel!"

"But this is impossible?"

“How can a computer be needed for personal use?”

"As the computing speed of processors gets higher and higher, it should be commercialized!"

"What do individuals or families use computers for?"

"It's totally unnecessary!"

Wang An paused slightly at this point, "But Mr. Gu, what spreadsheet application did you just mention in addition to the text manager?" A look of satisfaction appeared on his face, "Our company is already working on developing the corresponding spreadsheet application with tables. A functional computer!"

"It is initially estimated that in two years, that is, in 2, research and development can be completed and officially put into commercial production."

"When the time comes, I can donate a few units to the Liaison Office in the United States for free, just to show my concern."

Then, Wang An raised his hand and looked at his watch with an apology on his face, "Mr. Gu, Mr. Wang, it's already time to go to work. I have a work meeting every morning, you two."

"We just completed the development of a million operations per second mainframe computer in August last year and have successfully put it into use."

"Furthermore, we have our own R&D capabilities and technologies in monocrystalline silicon rods and corresponding optical equipment."

"I originally planned to have a good chat with you. Can we become your supplier in China?"

Gu Weijun didn't seem to hear the expulsion in Wang An's words, but instead asked with a smile: "Mr. Wang An, do you know the current situation of domestic computer development?"

Gu Weijun lowered his head and glanced at one hundred thousand US dollars. He sneered in his heart, what a huge amount! He didn't reach out to take it, but stood up directly, "Thank you for your time, Mr. Wang An!"

Wang An was not prepared to continue chatting with Gu Weijun and the others, so he wanted to deal with the past with a blank check for the future.

"Our large-scale PMOS integrated circuit factory has been put into production in Shanghai for 70 years. Last year, optical astronomical time measurement and latitude measurement photoelectric altimeters were also successfully developed."

"So?" Wang An was already a little impatient and looked at his watch twice, "Mr. Gu, what do you want to explain?"

Wang An took out a checkbook from his inner pocket, wrote down a series of numbers, tore it off, and handed it directly to Gu Weijun.

"Are you trying to explain that China's current technology is no worse than that of the United States? So you don't need me to donate computers to you in the future? Or do you hope that I can sponsor part of the expenses to China?"

this? Comrade Wang raised his buttocks to get up, but saw that Gu Weijun didn't move at all, and then sat down again.

"Are you interested in finding out?"

"But it seems there is little hope."

Wang An looked at the check in his hand in shock. Didn't he come to ask for money? But people from Baldhead’s group who came before or other groups in the United States have been looking for him to get various sponsorships.
This made Wang An a little surprised, and he was also a little impressed. Seeing that Gu Weijun did not accept the check, Wang An let go and the check fell to the coffee table, and he also stood up.

Wang An's smile at this time was somewhat sincere, "Since Mr. Gu just mentioned the leapfrog development of computers, you should know that there is still a certain gap between domestic computer levels and those in the United States."

"Our company's products must use the most cutting-edge technology from the United States, otherwise they will be eliminated by the market soon!" "I'm sorry, Mr. Gu, thank you for your kindness. I hope we can have the opportunity to cooperate again in the future." Wang Ann held out her hand, ready to shake goodbye.

Gu Weijun put one hand on it and shook it gently twice, with an inexplicable smile on his face, "I hope I have a chance."

On the way back to the hotel from Wang An's company, the car was very depressed. Comrade Wang obviously felt that Gu Weijun was unhappy, but he didn't know how to persuade him. When he was stationed abroad in France, he was doing united front work for overseas Chinese and overseas Chinese, and he would often encounter this kind of hot-faced but cold-butt situation.

After all, Chinese and overseas Chinese abroad are not necessarily patriotic.
In this situation, our staff stationed abroad can only grit their teeth and swallow it. What else can we do? You can't tie up others to support us.
After thinking for a while, Comrade Wang still tried to persuade him: "Weijun, we can meet all kinds of Chinese people abroad. Don't take it personally."

"Things like today are actually very common, especially among some Chinese who have a certain status abroad. In fact, they look down on us in their hearts."

"Well," Gu Weijun rolled down the window and let the cold air blow into the car, which shocked the two of them, "does this happen a lot?"

"Well, yes. We have concluded that the higher the status and wealth of people, the more this is the case."

"Oh, there are not many people who slaughter dogs when they are righteous, but there are many scholars who are unfaithful!" Gu Weijun raised the corners of his mouth slightly with disdain, "What our ancestors said is really good."

"The chairman also said it well!"

Comrade Wang knows what Gu Weijun is going to say next?
If classified, he is also an intellectual, but he moved his lips slightly and did not refute it, because he knew that the sentence was actually right.

Gu Weijun continued to complain, "From now on, whoever wants to do this united front work will do it, but I won't do it anymore!"

"I am an upright Chinese, the chairman has supported us all, why are we still nodding and bowing to these grandsons outside, thinking about it makes me angry."

After returning to the hotel, Gu Weijun and Comrade Wang immediately checked out and left. There was no point in staying any longer. Although no effective contact or actual results were achieved, they had finally met Wang An and could go back to work.

It was already January 74, 1. On New Year's Day of 3, Gu Weijun and Comrade Wang were sitting next to the telephone in the small hotel room. They bought a few bottles of beer and grilled sausages and spent the time drinking each other.

At that time, the two of them still imagined that we were so sincere and secretly prepared a greeting card in private. Wang An would definitely call and ask to meet. However, if other comrades found out about this behavior, they would definitely be criticized later.

The result, who knows
After returning to the liaison office, the two people immediately reported the situation of the trip to Ambassador Huang. After hearing the detailed report, Ambassador Huang's face became gloomy, but he quickly adjusted it and told Gu Weijun and the other two, "Let's do this." We must be patient and meticulous in our diplomatic united front work, and let the Chinese and overseas Chinese living there fully understand our policies and attitudes.”

"Everything is difficult at the beginning. Let's give you two a day's rest. Then we have other work to prepare for."

"For the United Nations General Assembly in June this year, we have to start preparations in advance. Domestic leaders are planning to visit. Will they meet with representatives of friendly countries? Meet with senior officials of the US imperialism? Meet with outstanding entrepreneurs, etc.? We All have to be prepared in advance.”

However, Gu Weijun did not move. After signaling Comrade Wang to go out, he lay on the table, leaned forward, and whispered to Ambassador Huang: "Uncle Huang, although this visit to Wang An did not achieve the expected results, I also found that A great trade point!”

As soon as this was mentioned, Ambassador Huang became more energetic. He pulled his chair forward and put his head next to Gu Weijun's. "What? Please tell me carefully!"

"I found that the computer industry in the United States is developing very rapidly. Basically, companies in the United States have a lot of computer equipment, such as Wang An's word processors."

"This thing is quite profitable now! Wang An Company's annual revenue is more than ten to two billion US dollars, and the entire market is at least tens of billions!"

"Although there is a gap between our country and the US empire, it is not that big. We can definitely supply companies here in the US empire."

"If the money earned from semiconductors is invested in research and development, won't our computer technology be able to catch up soon?"

"Then we continue to trade. Wouldn't this form a good trade ring?"
