Rebirth of the Tech Madman

Chapter 356: Crazy annual reports in and outside the industry

The brilliance created by the blue giant, and the "lifelong work" it advertises, will naturally give ibm people a sense of pride and belonging, and will also form a group psychology of "decent people should pay attention to doing things".

Under such a general trend, Don Estelitch's proposal inevitably appears rebellious and alternative.

Could it be said that just because Fangyuan Computer's delusional attempt to implement its own product standards looks aggressive, it must be scared to obediently disclose its technological achievements to combat it?

I have never seen any big winds and waves in ibm. In the mainframe era, it was staged in the drama of "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs." High spirits.

Nowadays, in the emerging market of personal computers, it is natural to rely on the profound background to crush all competitors head-on.

And what Don Estelic did, no matter how he looked at it, was a hurried and cowardly behavior.

So, when Don Estelic admitted frankly that he wanted to lift the table, he reaped a lot of contempt.

However, Don Estelich still insisted on continuing to elaborate on his ideas, "All signs indicate that the current pattern of the personal computer market is developing in the direction that Fangyuan Computer hopes. Only through the unconventional method of lifting the table, Only by interrupting this process and allowing more third-party vendors to lean toward the platform can we gain space for this latecomer."

Don Estelic said with a lot of mocking eyes and aggravated tone: "You know, until now. Apple has not successfully launched a successor. This is the performance of the new company's lack of stamina. And strong and continuous technology. R&D strength is the strength of ibm. With the new model of Intel’s next-generation microprocessor 80286, you can directly get rid of the entanglement and compete face-to-face with Fangyuan Computer."

"I found out from your words that you think you are not the rival of Apple Computer and Fangyuan Computer. As the person in charge of the personal computer department, your method of inflating others' prestige and destroying your own spirit is very problematic." Tang Ess Trichy's sense of anxiety. It attracted unceremonious criticism from some executives.

Don Estelich is also a person with a full character. He immediately slapped the table annoyed. "Everyone is just sitting in the office and arguing based on abstract report data. It is suspected of being out of reality. At present, dex is the most influential. It’s a commercial exhibition in the field of IT, it will be held soon. I suggest that you might as well take a look at the site to learn about the latest developments in the personal computer industry."

Seeing that everyone was arguing so hard, John Opel waved his hand to let Don Estelic sit back.

This meeting was not specifically for discussing personal computers. There are other more important matters that need to be dealt with.

After the meeting. Billowo pulled Don Estelich to a secluded place and bluntly criticized: "If you put forward a public technical proposal, whether it is reasonable or not, I am not good to comment, but I think there is a problem with your lobbying method. Otherwise, I won’t get beaten up three times in a row."

"What's the problem?" Don Estelich was said very confused.

"Your current lobbying method has an obvious meaning in it, that is, due to the strong pressure of Apple Computer and Fangyuan Computer, you have to passively adopt this method of lifting the table."

Billowo patted Don Estelich on the shoulder meaningfully, "The executives at the headquarters naturally hate this argument. You can change the way, for example, in order to support more third-party vendors to develop hardware and software. We take the initiative to disclose the technology. In this way, the resistance should be less, after all, the personal computer department is a new department, and it has been relatively free in operation. Unconventional measures may not be impossible."

With a flash of lightning in his mind, Don Estelitch suddenly realized it, and cursed in annoyance, "Damn bureaucracy."

However, Don Estelic has become more admired by Birlovo. No wonder his position has risen so fast, he seems to be a new star of ibm, and he has seen the trick of corporate governance so clearly!

"I want the high-level managers of the headquarters to attend this dex, so as to get a positive understanding of the current personal computer industry in full swing. It is indeed imperative to open technology. Can you help me persuade it?" Don Estelic, who has repeatedly hit the wall, Began to ask for help from Bill Lovo.

"I'll give it a try." Bill Lowo nodded, "Anyway, I am also very curious about the current personal computer market."

...

ea Japan and Taidong are one of Tang Huan’s plans for ea America, and their performance is up to this expectation. Their colleagues, including Nintendo, Namco, and Sega, have been severely beaten. Stepped **** the foot.

There is no doubt that Nintendo is the biggest sufferer. Shigeru Miyamoto and Red and White, as well as classic games such as Donkey Kong and Mario, have been poached in advance without mercy. According to news, it is developing its own family. Game console.

Nanmeng Palace can be said to be the second biggest sufferer. The degree of success of "Pac-Man" in the original time and space has even become its company logo, but now, hundreds of thousands of sales, hundreds of millions of dollars, It's all spent in his house.

Now that Japan’s economic situation is so good, Tang Huan certainly hopes that Taito will be the same as Epson, and Akio Nakanishi, who has been promoted to the president of the market, is promoting this.

Looking at the documents, Tang Huan thought to himself that if he calculates this, he will have two Japanese listed companies in his hands next year. The funding channels are bound to be more diversified, and it is even so complicated that it is difficult for others to figure out the details.

After meeting key figures such as Nakanishi Akio, Matsushita Mikito, Miyamoto Shigeru, Tang Huan left Japan and returned to San Francisco.

...

As soon as he got off the plane, he received good news that he was in a good mood. Always like a mad dog. Waiting for an opportunity to bite his own "San Francisco Observer". Was ruled by the court to infringe on personal reputation. After the procedures of public apology, acknowledgment of loss of money, etc., went down, the Hearst Group behind it was embarrassed.

However, Tang Huan's idea of ​​making the "San Francisco Observer" bankrupt through a claim was not supported.

This is also what the question should mean. After all, this is the United States. In addition to the deep roots of the Hearst Group itself, the media with the sword of "freedom of speech" should always have a more detached position.

Tang Huan didn't care too much about it. There are many ways to clean up the San Francisco Observer, and blunt knives are even more painful.

Moreover, from the two things Tang Wenmao said as a joke, it can be seen that the San Francisco Observer is now in a very embarrassing situation.

Because its credibility was damaged too severely, the sales of the San Francisco Observer fell sharply and its business was bleak. As a result, Fang's newspaper also appeared as a savior and proposed an acquisition, "Since you are in such a miserable situation, it is better to mix with me. Forget it. After all, you are also a newspaper with a history of nearly a hundred years. It would be a shame to go bankrupt."

The "San Francisco Observer" has no room for self-confidence. Sternly refused, "We are backed by the Hearst Group. The small setback in front of us is not enough, and it will soon pass."

Although it has resisted the risk of being acquired on a large scale, the "San Francisco Observer" is still plagued by small troubles, such as changing the window glass one crop after another. The culprit in the capital is some people who fear that the world will not be chaotic. Trick or treat teenagers, even if they were caught, would not help. Hearing those excuses that "smashed up for fun" made people even more depressing.

The San Francisco Observer is looking for a new office, and it is clearly asking for a higher level.

"This face, Hearst Group must sustain it." Tang Huan smiled disdainfully, "Then let it bleed slowly. Anyway, this operation is also being done in Xiangjiang, so I'm familiar with it."

...

This time Tang Huan returned to San Francisco, there was no need to be lonely and empty, because Lin Qingxia, who was following the "Alien" crew, made time to accompany him.

The reason on the surface was naturally thanks to Tang Huan’s help, and found her long-lost sister in the mainland, so that Lin’s father and Lin’s mother would get what they wanted.

What's more, the gains from this trip to the mainland far exceeded Lin's father and Lin's mother's expectations. In addition to the eldest daughter, relatives like the younger brother also saw him, and went back to his hometown.

Had it not been for the eldest daughter to get married and have children early, the two elderly people would both want to take her abroad.

Lin Qingxian nagged trivially, "After my sister returned to her original unit this time, she immediately entered the list of 38 red flag bearers and representatives, and her social status has been significantly improved."

Tang Huan laughed, "If you have an overseas relationship, it's popular."

"Thanks to your intentions, after the two old people came back from the mainland, they seemed to be ten years younger all of a sudden." Lin Qingxian gave a fragrant kiss gratefully.

Tang Huan laughed and joked, "Just like this, sincerity isn't enough."

"I know you are a greedy guy." Lin Qingxia gave the man a coquettish look, blushing, and climbed onto him.

Tang Huan squinted his eyes comfortably, and the smile on the corner of his mouth was looming. Lin Meiren seldom took such initiative, and she was blessed.

...

The next day, Tang Huan came to Cupertino, and the first thing he dealt with was ea's affairs.

Recently, ea can be said to be acting frequently, constantly elevating its style to prove its contribution and positive influence to society.

For example, according to research conducted by a third-party organization, ea's tripod game "Tetris" has certain therapeutic effects and helps prevent the occurrence of post-traumatic stress disorder.

In addition, "Tetris" can also help people who are addicted to alcohol to stop drinking.

These conclusions are not like traditional Chinese medicine. They are not recognized by the West because they are not supported by scientific methods. They are based on reliable samples.

In addition to putting gold on its own face in this way, ea has also increased its investment in the early education function of the Xiaobawang game console.

This is also to counteract the cheap computers of companies such as Compass and Texas Instruments. The prices of their products have dropped again and again, and they have reached the price range of US$200, which was originally a home electronic game console.

Adding the advert, "Instead of buying a game console that can only play games, it is better to buy a computer that can both play games and learn", which really makes the original game console manufacturer disgusting.

Products like the Atari 2600 whose design is becoming more and more congenital, can only follow a price war, and the selling price of 199 US dollars has long been a stalemate yesterday.

The US$249 selling price of the 1980 version of the Cassidy game console and the US$299 selling price of the 1981 version of the Cassidy game console are also inevitably affected.

However, the Xiaobawang game console is not like the Atari 2600 that has no other choice but to lower the price. It was originally a branch of the personal computer design roadmap. The platform has strong programming capabilities. It is not difficult to enter the field of early education through games. It's just the unique input method of the game console, which is a bit difficult for children.

In order to establish a good image in the field of early education, ea conducted several discussions on public relations plans. Tang Huan had a brainstorm by chance, so he casually joked, "I don’t need to worry about where I am. I have learned."

As a result, this idea was adopted, and Hawkins showed him the commercial.

Looking at the little actor from the crew of "Aliens", Drew Barrymore, who is less than seven years old this year, said cutely, "Mom doesn't have to worry about my studies anymore", Tang Huan couldn't help but get up. Goose bumps, feeling a kind of chills.

"You don't need to give me face like this." Tang Huan smiled bitterly.

"Our work is serious. I really feel that this idea is good, not to please ~www.readwn.com~ Hawkins seriously explained, "The effect of this commercial is very good. "

It seems that the Chinese and American people still have quite a lot in common.

Since the creativity is excellent, then I don’t need to be too hypocritical. Just watching Drew Barrymore on TV, Tang Huan murmured a little, “In the original time and space, this child was exhausted by his reputation at a young age. It's a detour, the future of this advertisement is worrisome."

After a little unfounded worry, Tang Huan quickly turned his attention to ea's annual financial report from 1980 to 1981. This is the first annual report of ea after its listing, and the significance is self-explanatory.

It seems that in order to compete, Warner also announced the annual report.

As a result, the data of the top two players in the video game industry, ea and Atari, attracted madness from the inside and outside the industry.

ea’s main operating income reached 2.8 billion US dollars, of which the home electronic game console business contributed 1.7 billion US dollars, an increase of 70% year-on-year; and the newly launched arcade business contributed 800 million US dollars. (To be continued...)
