Rebirth of the Tech Madman

What does the ascendant personal computer stand for? Perhaps your first reaction is high-tech.

But I have to tell you that this is just taking it for granted as an outsider and a third party.

Take the hotel industry, which has the most successful application effects at present, every time a personal computer is deployed, it means that several people will be adjusted or even fired.

An inconspicuous personal computer hides behind the changes in traditional business rules and processing procedures, and even people's work habits, and there is no room for maneuver in this adaptation process.

Needless to say, in the context of today's high unemployment rate, employers have one more reason for layoffs.

It is reported that many labor organizations are paying close attention to the impact of personal computers on traditional industries.

...

Obviously, the "Washington Post" mentioned the hotel industry with the most successful applications, which clearly alluded to Fangyuan Computer, which is almost monopolized in this field.

Tang Huan put down the tea cup gently, with a sneer on his face. The American Federation of Labor Unions, the largest union organization in the United States, uses my ebase human resource management system. What should they think about? Just give up this easy-to-use tool that you bought with money?

However, the entry point of the "Washington Post" is very unique, and the report style is also very inflammatory. This is the power of pornography.

Tang Huanbing ◎＄长◎＄wind◎＄文◎＄learning, c⊕fwx did not regard the “Washington Post” report as a fantasy or even unreasonable because his high-tech achievements are equivalent to advanced. On the contrary, he After empathy. I found that the other party's argument may be very marketable.

Just like the uber Uber in the mobile Internet era in the original time and space. It provides car rental and real-time ride sharing services. Although it has brought convenience to passengers and saved social resources, it has shaken the foundations of traditional taxi companies and the car rental industry, and has been encircled and suppressed. It has been embarrassed on all sides, and even has a demonstration effect, causing the entire Internet car rental industry to fall into Trough.

In places like the United States, the key to success or failure is often the point where interest can be compromised.

California officials all know that there are many benefits to building a high-speed railway similar to the Japanese Shinkansen from San Francisco to Los Angeles. However, it has touched the original interests in the fields of civil aviation, railways, highways, environmental protection, land expropriation and so on between the two places.

It is impossible for the personal computer industry to be hidden, but if the media that has ulterior motives to incite the people at the bottom and the government that tries to shift the focus of social conflicts in order to reduce its own pressure on governance, if the two parties converge, Fangyuan Computer, the early bird, will be knocked out. Sap is not impossible.

Although these possible worst results have been evaluated, Tang Huan still sits firmly on the Diaoyutai, waiting for more creative tricks, or even the cards to appear.

If you have to say anything about Tang Huan's reaction. That is, he logged into the Pacific bbs, which is still being tested by Zheru, and randomly posted a post on the subject of "Talk about the sins of Fangyuan Computer". And very boldly promised to spread the wealth.

But this is just a little trick, not enough to relieve his pressure.

In addition to the current media hype, Tang Huan has to stay in Silicon Valley all the time in order to avoid extra-junctions. It is inevitable that he will be upset.

Fortunately, the Cupertino headquarters has comprehensive sports and entertainment facilities, and Tang Huan has many options for pastimes.

However, Tang Huan's patience was eventually consumed by the report that was subsequently thrown out by the San Francisco Observer, whose title was not the ordinary sensational "Chinese businessman Tang Huan wants to buy AT&T."

This shocking news immediately made the "Observer" out of stock, but after reading the report, readers directly yelled, "Dare you be more exaggerated? It was just the acquisition of a subsidiary of Bell Systems, but it was described as wanting to buy. The entire AT&T company."

In addition to the exaggerated headline, "The Observer" has become more and more cynic with Tang Huan.

A nouveau riche who has lost his luck with **** is so ignorant that he really thinks he has a wealth of background and rich financial resources, and he can buy everything.

Be careful of the company you have built up so hard that it has been bankrupted by ridiculous ambitions.

...

When he saw the news, Tang Huan was taken aback for a moment. How could the observers' ears and eyes be so well-versed?

You know, this capital operation has always been entrusted to Goldman Sachs in secret, how suddenly it became clear to the world.

The negotiation was not going well in the first place, but now it has been focused by the media. Isn't it because there are some more constraints out of thin air, and the risk of failing your own plan is greatly increased.

Thinking of this, Tang Huan's face was rarely gloomy.

In the original time and space, the most well-known time of the dismantling of AT&T was in 1984.

But in fact, as soon as 1982, the resolutions of AT&T and the Department of Justice have taken effect. The period in between is a buffer period. After all, it is a super giant with assets of hundreds of billions and more than 20 subsidiaries. Ba, asset integration cannot be accomplished by touching the upper lip with the lower lip. It requires a process that takes into account various interests.

In other words, the ultimate fate of AT&T's dismantling has been clarified this year.

Of course, AT&T's fate is not sympathetic, it is too greedy.

With regard to regional monopolies such as local calls, the U.S. government has in fact allowed it by default, but American Telephone and Telegraph Corporation also monopolizes the long-distance telephone business. What is even more exaggerated is that the telecommunications equipment it uses is entirely provided by its own subsidiary, Western Electric.

The American Telephone and Telegraph Company, which has vertically integrated resources, has been extremely successful in rejecting competitors. It is the dominant one and has made huge profits through monopoly. Otherwise, it cannot withstand the expenses of Bell Labs.

After evading the previous antitrust investigations, the battle between AT&T and the Department of Justice began as early as 1974. Even meetings where it discussed how to suppress competitors were recorded. This is even more conclusive.

Seeing that fate cannot be changed. AT&T began to seek a plan to maximize its strength.

One of the focuses of anti-monopoly is where will Western Electric go. AT&T wants to keep this subsidiary because Western Electric can let it enter the computer field. This market had to be abandoned because of the anti-monopoly judgment in the 1950s, but Now it has the conditions to pick it up.

Tang Huan knew that AT&T paid more attention to the long-distance telephone business and Western Electric, so he started the idea of ​​its subsidiary that operates the local telephone business, which is the San Francisco-based Pacific Bell Company.

With this platform. Some of his thoughts on the Internet have the progress in his own hands.

Pacific Bell's business scope is mainly located in California, and other areas on the west coast of the United States also cover a part. The total assets exceed 10 billion U.S. dollars. It ranks among the more than 20 small Bell companies under AT&T, and is even known as "The jewel in the crown".

With Tang Huan's private equity ability, it is not a problem to take over the holding of Pacific Bell.

Moreover, anyway, these subsidiaries must form other entities through various combinations and go out. AT&T doesn't need to be stubborn, it's not a good thing to take advantage of it.

Tang Huan feels a lot of room for manipulation. He entrusted this task to Goldman Sachs, who has a deep background and great ability, and it should be able to solve all the problems involved in the transaction process, including the law.

Sure enough, AT&T showed no sorrow for things that were not destined to be its own, and showed great interest in trading.

However, the negotiation process was very difficult. Apart from some long-anticipated legal and legacy issues, AT&T has shown its greed as always.

For example, AT&T hopes that after Tang Huan takes control of Pacific Bell, the equipment purchases will still be provided entirely by Western Electric, which it will never let go of.

This is too demanding. Tang Huan also has a telecom switch.

For another example, just like Giant Blue's entry into the personal computer market, AT&T is also very interested in this field, and it hopes to acquire shares in Fangyuan Computer.

There are countless interest entanglements of this kind, but fortunately, Goldman Sachs is standing in front of it, and it's just a matter of time.

But Tang Huan didn't want to understand how this secret would be known by the San Francisco Observer.

The above also conclusively inferred that Tang Huan must mobilize the resources of ea, Fangyuan Computer, philosophers, and even the Shennong Foundation to satisfy his own ambitions. The small horse-drawn cart, the crash is imminent.

Tang Huan threw the "Observer" on the table in disgust, but when he thought that the other party was so dark about himself, he had to spend money obediently to buy it, and he couldn't help but get angry.

"It seems that no new forces will jump out. Let's end this farce as soon as possible. There is still a lot of business to do." Tang Huan rubbed his eyebrows and made a secret decision.

At this time, Goldman Sachs co-chairman and CEO John Weinberg called and asked angrily: "How did the San Francisco Observer know about our plan? There is a lot of noise now, how can we proceed?"

"I still want to ask you what's the matter." Tang Huan, who was secretly unhappy, muttered in his heart, but then he thought about it, maybe the person who hacked himself just wanted to see him and Goldman Sachs arguing.

"I have no reason to shout about this deal everywhere, and you probably won't. Maybe AT&T is in a period of turmoil, so people leaked out the news." Tang Huan speculated patiently.

"Then this deal, shall we continue to talk about it?" John Weinberg's tone was also depressed.

"Of course." Tang Huan replied lightly, "I don't think Goldman Sachs is willing to give up halfway, I believe you have no difficulties that you can't overcome."

Hearing Tang Huan's compliment, John Weinberg finally felt better, and he laughed, "I didn't expect you to have such confidence in Goldman Sachs."

Tang Huan said a few words, "Of course," and at the same time slandered, "In the original time and space, you were omnipotent. Even those European countries whose conditions are not up to the standard can be packaged brightly by you and joined. The European Union. This kind of purely commercial entrustment is still a matter."

"Tang, let me give you a suggestion. It's better to deal with the recent public opinion storm." Before ending the call, John Weinberg suggested.

"I understand, it should stop here." Tang Huan made it clear, and immediately called Regis McKenna and Tang Wenmao to ask how they were preparing.

After feeling that there is no problem, he nodded and slowly said, "This farce is over. You should split up. By the way, don’t forget to put relevant text information on pbbs to increase popularity. ."

The two left, and Tang Huan went back to the apartment not far away to rest, but he unexpectedly discovered that Nelkin was here to help clean the room.

"I'm really sorry. I didn't expect an unexpected situation suddenly occurred. The scheduled schedule was delayed like this, and you were so tired that you wasted a lot of personal time." Tang Huan apologized.

"It doesn't matter. Your business is the most important thing. Is this trouble easy to solve?" Nelkin asked with concern.

"It's just the clamor of some jumping clowns." Tang Huan waved his hand casually, and joked, "You care about me very much."

"Isn't this taken for granted, you have always taken care of me before." Nelkin smiled sweetly.

Looking at this woman's eyes, Tang Huan stretched out his hand and raised the other's chin, "Men usually take care of women with ulterior motives."

"Really?" Nelkin didn't break free, blinked his eyes and asked, "I don't seem to have anything worth plotting, right."

"Then the benevolent see the benevolence~www.readwn.com~ the wise see wisdom, or love is in the eyes of beauty." Tang Huan chuckled lightly, pushed Nelkin down on the sofa, and straightened his legs with his fingers. Moving up, "Your legs are very strong."

"Don't forget, what professional background I am." Nelkin replied roughly.

Tang Huan grabbed the little feet of the gymnastics Olympic champion, and looked at it carefully. "It can be seen that you were not training hard."

"I'm not a genius, and I was even judged by my seniors that I have no future, so I can only make up for it with diligence." Nelikin sighed quietly.

"But in the end you still gain a foothold in the strong national team." Tang Huan showed appreciation on his face, "I like this kind of energy."

"Thank you." Nelkin, who had a foreboding of what was about to happen, his face became more and more ruddy, "Is the trouble you're in, really okay?"

Tang Huan broke through the door heavily, then gritted his teeth and said, "You will soon see the autumn wind sweeping the fallen leaves." (To be continued...)
