Rebirth of the Tech Madman

...

In a lot of serious news, there are always people who like to mix some lace news into it.

I don’t know which muscles are cramping. The BBC used a photo sent by its reporters from Japan with the eye-catching question "The richest man is at odds with the emperor grandson", which instantly caused a huge sensation and became the one with the United States. The "Iran Gate" on the side complements each other with super heavyweight gossip reports.

In the picture, Prince Deren stretched his hand in the air, while Tang Huan, who was opposite, turned his face to the side, without giving any response. The embarrassing atmosphere was just rushing over his face.

Why are you making such a fuss? The British "Sun" quickly analyzed the answer.

Because the 26-year-old grandson of the emperor, Chun_ was moved, he had an admiration for Hetian Masako, the secretary of the richest man, and pursued it, which caused Tang Huan's unhappiness. This gave the other party a disapproval.

Therefore, this is a veritable jealous event.

The current Masako Wada is not an unknown person. He often appears behind the richest man in media reports and has become the main public relations target for Japan to understand Tang Huan’s dynamics. Recently, he has often accompanied Princess Diana and the two little British princes. .

To put it simply, Tang Huan, who will make the world media move for him wherever he goes, has made his beautiful female secretary so popular, especially in Japan, she seems to be a celebrity.

Now the British "The Sun" has connected Hetian Masako to that picture, giving people more room for imagination, and let boring people constantly ask curiously, "What about the next? What about the next?"

Of course there are none below, and it is impossible to have?

For such an arrangement, the parties will certainly not ignore it.

After the report from the BBC, the Imperial Household Agency of Japan quickly clarified: the scene in the picture was purely a ceremonial accident. At that time, Tang Huan was interacting with others, and he immediately apologized to the emperor grandson and made a warm and friendly attitude. Conversation.

Tang Huan’s office spokesperson’s tone was much harsher, and he directly asked the BBC: Why did you play tricks with this etiquette accidentally? What about your professional qualities? Is it really down year after year?

When the British "Sun" report came out, the Japanese Imperial Household Agency could not calm down, and immediately issued a severely worded protest, and then Japanese Prime Minister Yasuhiro Nakasone summoned the British ambassador to Japan.

Tang Huan's public relations team was even more vigorous, sending a lawyer directly to bring the BBC and the British "Sun" to court.

During the rumblings, Charles stood up to help explain: This was indeed an accident. At that time, everyone attended a charity event together, and he was on the spot, and Tang Huan was talking to him.

When things get to this point, the BBC and the British "Sun" naturally have only one way to go-bow their heads and admit their mistakes. However, some of them, who are scheming and calculating, have some ways to deal with it. They bit the "work error" in one bite, and after apologizing and losing money, they can't stop it.

Regarding this farce, Tang Huan, who had already put the California high-speed rail case to an end, just sneered and made a note on the ledger.

As for the truth of that photo, it doesn't matter. An emperor grandson is no big deal. Besides, the vast majority of Japanese people believe that this was an accident and a misunderstanding was not!

At this time, Tang Huan was dealing with the bank's affairs and sat with a large group of representatives of Japanese semiconductor suppliers. The text of the contract was placed in front of everyone, and his front was the highest.

Although the third echelon has been deployed as a spare tire in the supply chain, Japanese semiconductor manufacturers are still the most important suppliers at this stage.

There has already been news from the United States that ibm is about to start operations. Tang Huan must ensure that Fangyuan Computer has enough ammunition against it in the next 18 months, so he has the purchase order worth more than 500 million US dollars.

What is the concept of this amount?

It is equivalent to the annual sales of Sony Semiconductor, which ranks bottom in Japan, one-fifth of the annual sales of Motorola Semiconductor, which ranks first in the United States, and one-sixth of the annual sales of Nec Semiconductor, which ranks first in the world. amount.

Tang Huan could not give such a large order to one supplier, but allocated it to several suppliers based on his own risk-benefit model.

The reason why everyone is sitting together with beaming smiles now is because the fruits are about to be divided.

Of course, there are also people who slander: you have to make such a contract signing ceremony, so Nima can pretend to be forced!

But then again, because of this, even laymen can realize how important Tang Huan's value is.

At a later cocktail party, Tang Huan looked forward with enthusiasm: "Personal computers enter the age of 32-bit architecture, which is the real golden beginning. Graphical user interfaces, video games, graphic animation design, networks... etc. The wider the application, the hardware specifications of Fangyuan Computer need to be continuously improved, which depends on your continued support in the future."

...

California high-speed rail circled a basket of preferential terms. After spending a lot of money on the purchase order, Tang Huan continuously inspected the industrial groups such as Zheru Japan, Epson, Yamaha, ea Japan, Taidong, and strategic partners such as Sharp. The most important thing is the performance of LCD and lithium-ion battery technology, production capacity, and cost.

In fact, with the advancement of the digital age, Tang Huan's it technology is rapidly penetrating into traditional industries. The recently promoted TV walls and VCDs are all examples of this.

For some of these products, the market promotion progress is beyond ordinary people's imagination.

Take the video wall driven by computer graphics technology, it has become a hot spot since the Eurovision Song Contest was officially unveiled in May this year.

Hong Kong’s Media Asia TV and tvb have adopted this product in the studio. Especially through the influence of the 2nd Miss Chinese Contest, the venues that often hold large-scale events are becoming more and more popular.

Little Xiangjiang is just a microcosm, and the reaction in Japan is the same.

In terms of video games, Shigeru Miyamoto, who has already been packaged as a star producer, launched a newly designed work in the Japanese market at the beginning of this year, "The Legend of Zelda", which has just been released to the American market.

Tang Huan has paid little attention to specific products, but he still paid attention this time.

Compared with Shigeru Miyamoto's previous works, "The Legend of Zelda" is quite difficult to play, but it is still very popular and has sold more than 1 million copies.

In this, Taidong's operation is indispensable. It has built a play club, and the number of members has exceeded one million.

It has introduced a preferential policy for "The Legend of Zelda", that is, any game purchaser who returns the authorization card will become a member of the playing club and enjoy some additional services, such as game cheats.

What's more special is that the "Legend of Zelda" that has benefited from this, in turn, has attracted children's groups through prompts such as in-game rooms, hidden keys, and passages.

In Tang Huan's eyes, the achievements of this kind of game community culture construction really surprised him.

Nowadays, the richest man has more and more industries, but his energy is limited and he is worried about enjoying life. Naturally, he can no longer always teach his subordinates how to do like before.

Therefore, although ea sits high on the throne of the industry's overlord, the small companies with the least restraints and amazing creativity are still very threatening.

How to cultivate player loyalty? The software weapon of game culture has naturally become the best choice. And Taidong practiced it again in The Legend of Zelda.

Tang Huan chatted with relevant teams about such issues with interest, and asked Taidong if he had his own game publication.

Now that the entire industry is getting bigger and bigger, it is difficult to achieve the previous results if you count on partners like the magazine founded by Sun Zhengyi to take care of you. In the end, you have to rely on yourself.

As soon as the discussion was over, the assistant sent a fax from the United States. After taking a look, Tang Huan immediately ordered, "Go to the United States immediately."

...

Originally, even though ibm was about to hold back and had to zoom in, Tang Huan still wanted to go to Funan after the trip to Japan.

Since the death of Annan's pro-Soviet supreme leader Le Duan in July this year, and the succession of the pro-China Long March, the relationship between Funan and Annan has changed drastically.

As the national economy is on the verge of collapse, and the assistance of the Soviet Union’s big brother is indefinitely in sight, Annan is eager to get out of the quagmire of Funan. This makes Funan's contradiction focus began to shift.

Against this background, Tang Huan planned to go there and actually understand the situation there.

But this fax just sent Tang Huan had to change his mind. Because the financial core of the California consortium, Bank of America, is undergoing a hostile takeover. As a result, Bank of America issued an invitation to meet the richest man.

In the few years since the Latin American sovereign debt crisis broke out, it is not only the American Ocean Bank, in which HSBC has a stake, that has been dragged down terribly. Bank of America also has a large number of non-performing loans in these third world countries, which has caused the stock price to fall sharply and become the target of hostile acquisitions. .

The initiator of this capital war was the First Intercontinental Bank of Los Angeles, which directly smashed $3.2 billion in aggressively. Although Bank of America was in a dilemma, it did not want to end up like this, and immediately launched a rebellion.

In fact, Bank of America and First Intercontinental Bank have a deep relationship. Just over 30 years ago, the two sides were still one family. This is related to their development process.

The predecessor of Bank of America was a small bank created by Italian banker Amadi Giannini. This is a powerful figure who can compete with the traditional and powerful Morgan consortium. When he was alive, he accumulated a huge industry.

However, after the death of Amadi Janini in 1949, the financial kingdom he left behind gradually fell apart under the influence of the Antitrust Act.

First of all, the insurance business was established independently and became the former owner of Pan Am, the first Hollywood company acquired by Tang Huan—Lian Mei.

Then, the intercontinental business was spun off and became the current first intercontinental bank.

Monopoly is a kind of nature and trend. Due to the development of the situation, the statement of interests and other factors, the antitrust laws of the United States often have to be compromised in the end.

It is like the separation of commercial banks and investment banks required in the 1930s, but in the end they can still be seized by bank securities.

Now, the well-developed First Intercontinental Bank intends to take advantage of the serious illness of Bank of America, take it down and become a family again.

Although this approach seems very sentimental, but the financial world that only talks about benefits does not value this point. Bank of America still hopes to continue to maintain its original independent status.

...

Tang Huan showed up in the conference room with Louis Gerstner from American Express.

Alden Clausen, the newly appointed CEO of Bank of America, solemnly introduced their arrival to the audience.

After the crisis of mismanagement, Bank of America fired its original CEO Sam Amakost and asked Alden Clausen, who had just stepped down as the President of the World Bank this year, to take over, in an effort to turn the tide.

In fact, Alden Clausen is a veteran candidate for Bank of America. He was the CEO of Bank of America before. After leaving this position, he became President of the World Bank. Now After turning around, he came back again.

In order to save itself, Bank of America’s main measure is to sell some assets, including a bank founded by Amadi Giannini in Milan, Italy in the early years.

The Tang family investment fund managed by Tang Wenmao and Zhuang Menghua helped the female ship king Christina aim at this goal.

During the contact, Bank of America found that Tang Huan was a good candidate for the White Warrior, so this meeting took place.

As the fresh fried chicken in the California consortium, Tang Huan is no stranger to the group of people in front of him. First, he opened the door and said directly: "I am not familiar with the bank~www.readwn.com~ I am not very ambitious, and cooperate. The main condition is that Bank of America vigorously adopts my it application solutions, such as wealth management business, visa credit card, etc."

This is Tang Huan’s true thoughts. The financial field is too deep, especially with many traditional forces with a long history. They can't fight and kill, as long as they can get satisfactory financing services, as well as wonderful hands. The speculative gains are enough. If you become a husband by picking up girls and stocks become shareholders, you will add unnecessary burdens. △≧miào△≧bi△≧gé△≧

All in all, the current principle of doing things is that everyone does not offend the river, and no one should cross the border.

As for the Bank of America, which is headquartered in San Francisco, the main reason is that its non-Standard Chartered status has moved the richest man.

The wary Bank of America, the opportunity to give the White Samurai is quite rare. If you miss it, you may have to wait until next year that the cause of the original time and space is inconclusive, and whether there will be a particularly unknown global stock market crash again.

Alden Clausen replied with a faceless expression: "On the list of assets to be sold this time, the wealth management business is also among them, and we have already talked about transactions with Charles Schwab."

"You won't even sell Visa?" Tang Huan joked.

"That's not enough." Alden Clausen shrugged and asked instead: "There are no obstacles to the California high-speed rail project, right?"

"This is one of my own big attractions." Tang Huan, who flashed this thought in his mind, nodded and gave the other party the answer he wanted happily. "The funds have basically been raised, even if the federal funding is delayed. There is no problem. I think Bank of America should be able to provide some services."
