Chapter 528: The Chosen One, a Cheating Life! (Subscribe)
The day after the press conference,
The front pages of major newspapers around the world all carried shocking headlines.
“The third industrial revolution may really be coming!”
boom--
The world is shocked and the whole nation is boiling!!
"What? The third industrial revolution is really coming? Today is not April Fools' Day..."
"What a joke! The Sun is becoming more and more shameless. To increase sales, they can even print out such an outrageous headline. I want to unsubscribe from this newspaper!!"
"That's right! They're making fun of us. This is too much. I want to complain! Fuck!"
"Oh, that's not right! Stop arguing and look down, look down quickly..."
"Oh my God~~ Is the Pangu computer really that good? I can listen to music, watch TV and play games on it? This is too incredible!!"
"My friend, that's exactly what's written in the newspapers. I see that it's not just The Sun that says that, but The Times as well... Although it's hard to believe, it seems... that it's all true..."
"That's wonderful! I've already started to imagine that kind of life... drinking coffee, working, and listening to music. When I finish my work, I'll play a game of chess. £2999? I'm ready. Can anyone tell me where to buy this Pangu computer?"
"My friend, it's not called that. Time Technology claims that this is a personal computer. They have redefined computers..."
"Really? Let me see..."
"Goodway, goodway! This is an interesting statement, I agree with it very much! Computers cannot be used only for work, otherwise they will just become tools, which is too boring! Personal computers, electronic brains, partners for human work, study and entertainment, well said!"
"Then the question is, how can I buy this Pangu personal computer? I really can't wait! If I can't buy it as soon as possible, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep well at night..."
"Wasn't there a phone number under the Times Technology ad a few days ago? I'll call and ask later."
"Okay, then I have to look for it..."
……
Similar discussions are happening all over the world.
Some office workers, aristocrats, businessmen, wealthy ladies, politicians, etc., they were all talking about Pangu personal computers.
People's curiosity and expectations were all aroused. After the discussion, those who had financial resources began to ask how to buy Pangu computers and where to buy them.
At this moment,
The advertisements that Time Technology had previously placed in major newspapers in various countries had worked. People easily found the contact information and called them one after another...
It is worth mentioning that,
Wu Youde had already secretly established sales channels in various places. He asked the marketing department of Times Technology to open an experience store in the capitals of major countries around the world.
Including the capital.
Times Technology has recently created such a big stir around the world, and people in China naturally know about it. Therefore, when the leaders learned that Times Technology has developed such a high-tech product, they were very happy and proud!
With just one word from Wu Youde, he obtained permission to open stores in eight major cities, including Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Nanjing, Chongqing, Jiangcheng, Chang'an, and Fengtian.
Back in November,
All experience stores around the world have been thoroughly prepared, with store staff, security, logistics, goods, training, etc. everything in place, just waiting for the official opening!
Regarding store staff training,
Wu Youde gave special instructions, asking people to be enthusiastic, thoughtful, sincere and professional!
All store employees must undergo a one-month training before taking up their posts. Only those with excellent training results can take up the posts, and the rest will not be hired.
Of course, employees are also paid during training.
But once you officially start working, your salary will be even higher!
In order to ensure that store employees can conscientiously implement these four requirements,
Wu Youde also proposed a 'basic salary + sales commission' system, which not only encourages employees to treat others with enthusiasm and sincerity, but also improves their work enthusiasm.
The rest are all famous stores around the world, which use the same decoration style.
The main body is blue and the secondary body is white.
Blue represents technology, and white symbolizes light.
As for the logo of Times Technology,
It is a "torch" pattern, which indicates that the technology of the times will lead the technological trend and lead all mankind into a new era!
……
Once the press conference is over,
The Times Technology Experience Store, which was originally deserted, gradually began to attract people...
More and more, more and more!!
The speed at which the flow of people increased made everyone secretly gasp. Not only were the employees of the experience store overwhelmed, but even the people watching the excitement outside the door felt it was incredible!
"Oh God~~Are these people crazy??"
"The cheapest computer costs 3000 pounds. Even if it's interesting, is it really necessary to buy it?"
"Who said it wasn't? It's unbelievable. When I passed by here before, the entrance was as deserted as a library, but now it's like there's a war going on!"
A middle-aged lady carrying shopping bags, who had just come out of the mall next door, stopped and looked at the bustling crowd in the store with a look of surprise.
"It seems that the press conference was really popular. Even I, who am not interested in technology products, can't help but be curious."
A young man next to her pushed up his glasses, his eyes sparkling with excitement, "I heard that the new computer not only has excellent performance, but also can listen to music, watch movies and play games. This is so cool!"
"Yes, yes, you can also draw. You can draw whatever you want. It's like a dream!" A little girl nearby excitedly interrupted, her eyes seemed to be filled with colorful paintings.
"But then again, the price is not cheap. How can ordinary people just buy it?"
An old man who was dressed simply and looked like he was retired shook his head, with a hint of helplessness in his tone, "But looking at the enthusiasm of these young people, I feel that the power of technology is really amazing, and it can make so many people so crazy."
"Indeed, times are changing, and the changes are a little too fast..." someone next to him sighed.
"Well, that makes sense."
The old man nodded, a gentle smile flashed in his eyes, "Seeing these young people full of curiosity and desire for the unknown world reminds me of my own youth. Technology makes life better, I really believe this now."
As night falls,
The lights outside the Times Technology Experience Store gradually light up, complementing the bustling voices inside the store, forming a unique urban night scene.
People either stopped to watch or had heated discussions, and everyone's face was filled with shock and yearning for the miracle of science and technology.
……
When each experience store is popular,
Wu Youde was not idle either. He was still in Mazu. After the press conference, he was surrounded by a group of bigwigs. Governors congratulated him one after another, and some even expressed their intention to place orders on the spot and buy a few to experience them themselves.
Wu Youde always rejected such requests.
No need to buy, I'll give it to you!
Tell me, how many do you want?
After chatting with a group of governors, the electronics manufacturers surrounded us again, and it became a bit difficult to deal with them.
They all came here to explore the technology.
How many threads and crystals does the Shenlong-1 CPU use? How does it achieve a 30MHZ operating frequency?
And that mechanical storage hard drive, can you let us take a look at it?
Can we have a look at the memory chip?
How did you solve the problem of large memory chips running smoothly?
Various professional problems emerge one after another...
For these questions,
Wu Youde smiled and said, why don't we all have a meal together?
then,
He went to dinner with a group of representatives from electronics manufacturers, and after dinner he began to meet and negotiate with each manufacturer individually.
Although these manufacturers are all world-renowned electronics giants, no matter which one is taken out and put into the future, they will all be famous.
For example, IBM, HP, Intel, Philips, etc.
But Wu Youde was most interested in only one company, a company founded by a Chinese!
what?
This was the 1970s, and it was still a world-renowned electronics company. How could there be a company founded by a Chinese???
Absurd! Arabian Nights!!
Not to mention being world-famous, there is not even a single electronics company in the entire country that is famous.
Although it is incredible, it is real, it really exists, and it really appeared...
——Wang Laboratories.
The name of this company translated into Chinese is: Wang Laboratories Computer Company.
This company has disappeared in later generations, but in this era, it is a well-known big name in the entire electronics industry. It may not be the leader, but it can at least be ranked among the top five.
Compared with companies like IBM, HP, and Intel, Wang Laboratories is not inferior at all!
As for Microsoft, Apple, Nvidia, and other companies that are very powerful and well-known in the future, they haven’t even formed egg cells yet…
For these companies, Wang Laboratories is a real veteran!
Wu Youde was not only interested in Wang An Computer Company, he was also very interested in Wang An himself...
This person is simply the chosen one of God, with incredible luck!
He was born in Shanghai on February 1920, 2, with his ancestral home in Kunshan.
He has been studious and has excellent grades since he was young.
He completed high school courses in junior high school, and took the college entrance examination of the Republic of China at the age of 16. He was admitted to the mechanical and electrical engineering major of Shanghai Jiaotong University with the first place in his major.
In 1937, the Battle of Songhu broke out. Wang An lost his parents and sister in the war. In 1940, after graduating from Shanghai Jiaotong University at the age of 20, Wang An stayed on to teach at the university and became an assistant professor in the Department of Electrical Engineering.
In 1941, Wang An led a scientific research team and hid in Guilin to study military radio to support the War of Resistance.
After the war,
Wang An, who performed outstandingly during the war, joined the government training program and was sent to Harvard University in the United States in 1945 to continue his studies.
I got all A's in the first semester and successfully received a full scholarship.
It took him only three years to complete all master's and doctoral courses, and he received his Ph.D. in applied physics from Harvard University in 1948.
Wang An originally thought that he had such good results.
I thought I could definitely find a good job in the United States, but reality slapped me in the face.
After graduation, he went to IBM for an interview. Because he was of the yellow race, the interviewer was full of discrimination against him and directly asked Wang An to find a job in a car repair shop.
This was a huge blow to Wang An!!
From then on, he began his own life transformation...
Wang An is determined to become a challenger to IBM! !
If job hunting fails, settle for the next best thing.
Wang An found a job in the laboratory of Howard Duncan, the father of computer, and Duncan only asked Wang An to handle some miscellaneous daily affairs.
After working in Duncan's lab for a month,
Based on the principle of magnetic field vibration, Wang An developed a "magnetic core storage device", which solved the problem of large computer size, enabled computers to enter the commercial field, and applied for a patent, which directly shocked Howard Duncan!
He then decided to resign and start his own business with 600 million yuan.
Wang An's career started in the basement. He established Wang An Laboratories to produce and sell magnetic core memory.
But personal computers were not popular at that time and Wang An's business was not good, so he sold his "magnetic core storage" patent to IBM for 50 million yuan and earned his first pot of gold.
Wang An used the 50 yuan to establish Wang An Computer Company in 1955!
That's right,
As early as 1955, Wang Laboratories was founded! !
Subsequently,
Wang Laboratories also launched paper hole recorders, angle encoders, semi-automatic typesetters, etc.
Each of these products can be said to be epoch-making products, which have greatly increased the company's performance.
In 1964, Wang Laboratories' sales reached 100 million US dollars.
By 1965,
Wang An launched the world's first commercial computer - a transistor computer, named "Rosay".
The "Rosai" desktop computer is small in size, powerful in functions and easy to operate. It quickly gained market recognition after it was launched on the market and was in short supply.
Wang An's career began to take off...
In 1967, Wang Laboratories' sales reached 690 million US dollars.
In the same year, Wang Laboratories issued 250 million shares.
After the stock is listed,
The opening price was 12.5 million yuan per share, and the closing price rose to 40.5 million yuan per share. 40 shares were quickly sold out.
Wang An's net worth reached 5000 million RMB, making him a super rich man!!!
What does 5000 yuan mean?
Still in 1967.
Those who have this much wealth are already among the richest people in the United States!
Even Warren Buffett, the stock god, only had a net worth of 500 million US dollars at that time...
A true Chinese,
It is simply shocking and unbelievable that he could go to the United States in the 1950s and 1960s and make such a huge fortune!
I don't even dare to make up a story like this!!
What’s even more amazing is that it only took him a dozen years to go from a poor boy to a super rich man! !
Even more exaggerated,
Wang An’s road to becoming an awesome person is far from over.
70s,
Wang An conducted in-depth research on the U.S. market and discovered a business opportunity: the tertiary industry in the United States was constantly rising, and office equipment urgently needed to be replaced and upgraded.
Wang An then made office systems the company's research and development focus.
1971 years,
Wang Laboratories introduced the 1200, an automatic printer with built-in retrieval function, which caused a huge sensation.
According to reports at the time,
Thomas Watson, then chairman of IBM, was hospitalized due to myocardial infarction. After reading the news in the newspaper, he became furious with his assistant and blamed him for not informing him of the news earlier.
After a loud curse, he fainted on the spot.
1976 years,
Wang An also launched a 1200 computer equipped with the WPS system - WPS processor 2200, which was another huge innovation in the office field.
Through this product,
For the first time, people were able to see the text editing process on a computer screen. When it was displayed at a New York exhibition, many attendees were amazed by its functionality.
In 1976, the WPS system was promoted and applied throughout the world, from the White House office to small and medium-sized enterprises.
That year, Wang An Computer Company's revenue exceeded 1 million US dollars, which put IBM under tremendous pressure! !
By the late 70s and early 80s,
Wang Laboratories became the global computer leader!!!
what is interesting is,
He still could not forget the humiliation he had suffered from IBM, so he placed an advertisement in the newspaper saying "Try our products, forget IBM."
1984 years,
Wang An was awarded the "Highest Honor Achievement Award in Electronics and Information Technology" by the American Electronics Association.
1986 year 7 month 4 day,
Wang An was awarded the "Presidential Medal of Freedom" by the then US President Reagan and was selected as one of the 12 most outstanding immigrants in the United States.
1986 years,
Wang Laboratories has an annual revenue of 30 billion US dollars, ranking 500th among the top 146 US companies. Its products are sold in more than 100 countries and it has 3.15 employees worldwide.
Wang Laboratories reached the pinnacle of glory!
Wang An himself is also ranked the fifth richest man in the United States with a personal wealth of 20 billion US dollars! !
In 1988, Wang An was inducted into the U.S. Inventors Hall of Fame!!!
In the 1950s,
A middle-aged Chinese man fled to the United States and after thirty years of hard work, he became the fifth richest man in the United States!
Such an awesome person,
Wu Youde really wanted to meet and get in touch with him.
After all, we share the same roots and are one family. If we can make progress together and develop hand in hand, we can create a new hope for the Chinese people when the Internet wave comes.
It’s a wonderful story!
