Rebirth of the Tech Madman
Chapter 225: Chinese Red and Tyrant Gold
Thanks to the explosive dissemination of information in the Internet age in the original time and space, and the memories of certain elites in his mind, Tang Huan has become numb to the performance of the US president. The difference between politicians, and perhaps the biggest difference lies in their respective acting skills. .
Of course, actors also have to have their own characteristics, otherwise they will become all-faced awl faces like plastic surgery, then there is a danger of dazzling everyone.
The domestic image that Carter has created for himself is to strengthen his approachable characteristics, such as appearing in public, dressing and speaking informally, holding press conferences from time to time, and avoiding presidential pomp, and planting before he was elected governor of Georgia. Peanuts, the image of a "countryman" businessman who buys and sells chemical fertilizers, echoes with each other.
In addition, Carter has 11 years of naval career. During his service in the Pacific Fleet's regular submarine "Pampin", he was on duty with the ship in the Pacific waters and arrived in Chinese ports many times.
Although he had this military experience, Carter was relatively moderate in diplomacy, except this time he boycotted the Moscow Olympics because of the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan.
Therefore, Carter’s “softness” was not pleasing to politicians during the Cold War, coupled with the inflation and high unemployment rate during his tenure, as well as the Iranian hostage crisis, which led to the gradual loss of popular popularity, and the ups and downs were not good. Unable to be re-elected.
But in any case, Carter’s gentle manners really made Tang Huan a lot easier when dealing with him. For example, the customized version of the Xiaobawang game console that was planned as a gift was finally successfully taken into the banquet hall. , Placed on the table.
When the sound module was enhanced, the hardware architecture of the first generation of Cassidy game consoles was completely fixed. So you can play some tricks. Further attract consumers.
Tang Huan, who has long been familiar with electronic consumer product marketing. Instructed to produce a batch of customized versions on the basis of the 1980 version that was just launched in the middle of this year. In fact, it was a bit of brainstorming and some gimmicks in the main box.
For example, plexiglass is used in some directions, so that the internal circuit board can be seen, and for example, more LED status indicators are added.
When the game console is powered on and started. Quite a kind of mystery described in science fiction.
According to legend, Carter, with an IQ of 175, participated in the first batch of research on nuclear-powered submarines in the United States in the late 1950s during his naval career. He is an expert in nuclear reactor technology, so he doesn't have a black eye for technical products.
"So the Soviets were fascinated by this gadget?" Carter asked with interest.
"Don't look at it in terms of hardware specifications that are only similar to current personal computers, but through clever software coding, many interesting designs can be made." Tang Huan smiled, "While Mr. President is busy, you might as well combine work and rest. , Spend fifteen minutes. Play the game inside. Cassidy has sold millions of consoles, and there will be at least millions of players. Mr. President may be able to interact with more people. Find a common topic."
Because of the boycott of the Moscow Olympics, Carter did not ask Fangyuan Computer, which Tang Huan madly advertised in more than ten languages, but gladly accepted the Xiaobawang game console.
Seeing that Tang Huan did not forget to promote products deliberately no matter where he went, Steve Rose couldn't help but frowned, thinking about it, "No wonder Atari was so crushed by the bully that the opponent didn't play the cards according to common sense. Ah, waiting for the reporters to publish the report of the banquet event tonight, it is a wasteful advertisement, and its attractiveness to customers can be imagined. It seems that it is necessary to give Ray Casa and Atari a good deal. It's a meeting."
After Tang Huan returned to his seat, he noticed Steve Rose's trailing gaze, so he raised the cup with a smile and gestured.
"Little guy, you can be proud of it first." Steve Rose snorted to himself, still looking still.
Since everyone was destined not to have a good time together, Tang Huan naturally wouldn’t really care about Steve Rose’s feelings. He took a chance to meet with the mayor of Los Angeles, Tom Bradley, who accompanied Carter. Started talking.
Bradley, 53 years old this year, is also a Democrat. What makes him extraordinary is that, as a black, he succeeded in getting the position of chief executive of a metropolis like Los Angeles.
During Bradley's 20-year tenure from 1973 to 1993, great changes occurred in Los Angeles, and many things happened, such as the 1984 Olympics.
Bradley's political history is quite successful, but because of poor handling during the 1992 Los Angeles riots, he almost ended up losing money.
Tang Huan's approach to Bradley's relationship is nothing more than to give Deng Lijun a retreat to promote cultural exchanges, something that is not expensive, and the other party is naturally happy to send personal affection.
When the banquet was over, everyone went away. Lin Qingxia, who sat in the back seat with Tang Huan, said in admiration, "You are so amazing. I can talk and laugh so much with such a big man. I was nervous at the time. The heart is about to jump out."
"Is it better now? Let me touch and see." Tang Huan thiefly touched Lin Qingxian's chest, and his hands were immediately soft.
"Let's take advantage of others." Lin Qingxia slapped Tang Huan's hand fiercely, but then her eyes widened because her soft lips had been covered by the man's big mouth.
Lin Qingxian bit her teeth tightly, pushed Tang Huan away with all her strength, and cursed in shame: "It's so stinking."
Tang Huan wiped his mouth helplessly, and muttered: "It's not a movie kiss scene. What are you doing with your teeth so tight that you almost bit off my tongue."
"Deserve it." Lin Qingxian looked sideways at the night view of Los Angeles outside the car window, and smiled secretly.
...
Returning to his aunt’s residence in Los Angeles, Tang Huan remembered that he hadn’t talked to the elderly for a while because of flying around, so he checked the time and picked up the phone to call Singapore.
Tang Yun, accompanied by Lin Fengjiao, was in a good mood, and even Tang Huan, who was filial, was also very happy. But when he picks up a copy of the latest Wall Street Journal. I couldn't help but frown.
As one of the fastest growing companies in Silicon Valley. Philosophers will naturally be analyzed and commented on by economic newspapers, but if you boast, why do you dig so deeply, they have turned out the actions of Philosophers who have recently registered hundreds of patents one after another.
These achievements are mainly related to the second-generation Fangyuan computer and the Xiaobawang game console. Tang Huan originally planned to accumulate food and slowly become the king, using more than a year to quietly prepare the technical reserves, and now it is out of the world. Doesn't this expose the target and startle the snake? I don't know if Cupertino has discovered this report.
Tang Huan pondered, Deng Lijun’s concert went well for both stops, and the place to be managed is already in place. There is no need to worry too much about it, so let’s turn my attention back to Silicon Valley first.
In this way, the next day after Tang Huan and Deng Lijun gave an explanation, they hurriedly returned from Los Angeles to Cupertino, Silicon Valley.
As soon as he arrived at the company, Tang Huan found out that Chambers was receiving two financial reporters. Talking about the way to the rise and success of philosophers and Confucianism, this kind of public relations activities naturally let the subordinates show off.
I looked at the documents in the office for a while. Chambers ran over with sweat on his forehead and reported to Tang Huan, "Our 386 plan seems to have leaked. The interview with the Wall Street Journal arranged by McKenna a few days ago did not mention patents. , Why did it suddenly burst out."
"Perhaps the other party didn't know it by accident." Tang Huan pondered for a moment. "If someone mentions this matter again, push it to the Apple computer, and at the same time pull out IBM to share the attention. R&D is currently at a critical point. At that time, I hate these external disturbances the most."
"I understand." Chambers nodded, and then smiled on his face. "You raised Fangyuan Computer in front of the camera at the Olympic Games. This made Apple very dissatisfied. If you switch to an Apple computer, it will How many investors' attention will it attract."
"We paid for this advertising fee." Tang Huan cut with disdain, "It seems that I have to go to Apple to check it out. Don't have any other worms."
When he came to Markkula’s office, he happened to meet the Lisa project director Kutcher giving an ultimatum, "Mike, if Steve Jobs comes to my site again, then please ask Gaoming. I’m not the project director. It's done."
"Jobs is like an impulsive child sometimes. You can't get angry with him." Markkula comforted, and his brows became a lump. "You give me a period of time, and I will definitely help you put the Lisa project team together. The relationship goes smoothly."
"Okay, then I'll bear with it again." Kutcher, who had finished pouring water, left with an angrily.
Markkula looked at the back of Kutcher leaving the office, and sighed helplessly, "Now the relationship between Jobs and Kutcher in the Lisa project has reached the point where water and fire are incompatible. It is really unnerving."
Tang Huan shrugged, "Kutcher is from HP, and he is obviously guilty of hacker-style Jobs in his work style. It's only a matter of time before problems go wrong."
"That said, this dispute must be resolved as soon as possible. The project has failed, and the Lisa project can no longer make mistakes." Markkula said to himself.
Regarding Apple’s internal personnel relations, Tang Huan was not interested in interfering. He raised his concerns, "How is the preparation for listing?"
"Finally on the normal track, the investment bankers gave a new subscription price of $18 per share." Markkula showed a happy smile on his face, "What do you think of this price?"
"I feel like it's at least $20." Tang Huan shook his head, and then smiled slyly, "But only Apple cares about this difference. It's just that you get less. Wall Street bankers take advantage of it, as long as the final closing price is higher. That's it."
"In that case, do you think the price is low? It seems that everyone's opinions are similar." Markkula pondered, "Anyway, we have to conduct some public relations activities, and we will discuss the situation after we see the situation. Tang, you With such a reputation now that even the president wants to see you, you can’t be lazy in propaganda."
"I must try my best." Tang Huan laughed, and looked at Markkula's appearance. Recently, the Apple board of directors should be calm, and now he is finally quiet.
He chatted with Markkula for a while, and the other party revealed a message. Its monthly sales have exceeded 20,000 units. But there are also troubles. "Woz's men are not worried, they often make comments. Especially when it was first introduced to the market, Robert planned to replace and stop production within six months. As a result, he came back in despair and caused internal conflicts."
Seeing that the good old man Markkula was a little bit distressed, Tang Huan finally couldn't hold back the seal to himself, and kindly suggested: "Mike. You are too lazy, and Scott can't restrain his rebelliousness. Jobs, it's time for Apple to consider choosing a new CEO."
"Let's talk about it after going public. At that time, the company will be more attractive to senior talent." Markkula also seems to agree with this suggestion.
Tang Huan nodded silently. He could expect that after Kutcher came to complain just now, no matter how old Markkula was, he would be intolerable to Jobs and be transferred from the Lisa project team. Even overhead will be an indispensable means. The relationship between the two of them, which was originally the same as father, son, and apprentice, will inevitably appear to be a rift. It is estimated that Jobs will also learn the essence of corporate governance from this loss.
As for Scott, Markkula should still rely heavily on his disappointment.
Go back to each house and find each mother. After confirming that Apple's side was calm for him, Tang Huan got up and left.
On the way, Tang Huan began to wonder about the possible consequences after being vaguely revealed by the media about the research and development plan of Philosopher.
He feels a little unreliable. The ibm personal computer R&D project team has definitely maintained its attention to the current hardware and software leaders Apple and Philosopher in the field of personal computers. Maybe the other party will analyze something from it. After all, they are also Technical elite.
When Tang Huan came to the door of the company, he happened to meet Cogan and Hawkins.
After the original Oakland Raiders were successfully acquired, they followed Tang Huan's instructions and made some changes.
Hearing that Tang Huan had come back, naturally he couldn't bear the excitement and came to show his merits.
Before being kicked away, his control of the Oakland Raiders was not generally strong.
Initially, the Raiders’ jersey was black and gold, and the helmet was black and white. There was no team logo on it.
After becoming the head coach and manager, he modified the color scheme to silver and black, and added a team logo on the helmet.
The team logo is a shield with "" written on the top and crossed swords.
Now that the Oakland Raiders have changed their bosses, Tang Huan will naturally take some actions to erase the stigma, including details such as changing the color of the team's jersey.
Boss Tang opened his mind and decided without hesitation to set the colors as Chinese red, local gold, and white. As for the team logo, the logo became a tiger. The Oakland Raiders belong to the Western Conference of the Major Leagues. Qinglong Xibaihu chant.
It can be said that Tang Huan brought his own evil taste to the fullest.
Calling some of the vice presidents at home, Tang Huan first went to see the Oakland Arena-now it has been renamed the ea Arena, and they can see the huge ea billboard far away.
"Is this too ostentatious?" Tang Huan asked falsely.
"Why then? We gave real money." Hawkins took it for granted.
The reason why Cogan and Hawkins rushed to inspect Tang Huan was mainly to finalize the overall situation and stabilize the team's military spirit, because the preseason is in the upcoming August.
This acquisition was not only a sudden attack, but also made Tang Huan's side a little unprepared, so he didn't adjust the players and the coach, but calmed down instead.
The current head coach of the Oakland Raiders is the original quarterback. He is the first Hispanic head coach in nfl history.
Tang Huan reaffirmed the status of the head coach in public, and at the same time allowed him to hold the position of a deputy manager. When the manager Kegan was too busy, he would be responsible for the overall affairs of the team.
Getting the respect of the new boss is naturally a great loyalty.
Like the nba, the team’s investment is capped by the league, and there is still no room for a “hard” cap, but for the previous team, the so-called cap was too far away, and Tang Huan increased his investment a little bit. Everyone was at home.
After all, no matter what these people and relationships were before, but only from the clamor to move the team from Oakland, one can guess that he is not satisfied with the current financial situation of the team.
The big boss, Tang Huan, who is not bad at money, gave a very simple employment principle at this stage. Everyone works hard and has sugar. If you still engage in tricks with hooks, then I'm sorry, and get out.
In fact, Tang Huan got a big deal with this club.
Originally, ~www.readwn.com~ was this team in time and space. It won the final Super Bowl championship in the new season, and then forcibly moved the team from Oakland to Los Angeles. After finding that it was still unsatisfactory, it moved again in the 1990s. Back to Auckland.
Although he didn't know that he had taken a big advantage, Tang Huan was already satisfied with all the current propaganda platforms of ea.
In his view, consumer electronics products should not only be limited to the product level, but should also form an ecological circle of their own social culture.
The Blizzard company in the previous life integrated the games of "World of Warcraft", "StarCraft", "Hearthstone" and so on on a Battle.net platform. Other game companies also did this, and its purpose was nothing more than this.
If you really think that you can sell the product from start to finish by relying on technology alone, it would be a bit naive.
Just as the QQ in the previous life did not rely on technology to win, but used various means to "stick" users, thus creating its own platform, in actual operation, there are more ways to win. (To be continued...)
