Rebirth of the Tech Madman

Chapter 939: One dollar and one billion

Athena, who had just beaten her brothers to the ground, shook her tennis racket and challenged with a grin: "Dad, let's have a game."

As the only "flower" in the Tang family, Athena's popularity can be imagined-the richest man took off his shoes and went straight to the court without saying a word.

Athena would definitely not be as brutal as she had dealt with her brothers just now, but she just played a few humorously.

Amidst the laughter, Athena boasted: "Dad, my level, I can play professional games in a few years."

The richest man was amused, "If you don't do anything about me, your mother will agree to it."

The essence of the elite that Tang Huan merged, after being passed on to his children, was the first characteristic that naturally appeared to be extremely high talent; and to Athena, there was an extra insight like a flight attendant.

The little girl from a few years ago, still carrying baby fat, is now slim and graceful.

No matter how sturdy the female ship king Christina is, she is no different from ordinary people in terms of being a parent, and she will inevitably fall into the cliché-the failures she has experienced must not be let her children experience it again; the ideals she has not achieved can be realized through her children. .

Therefore, Christina, the queen of ships, expects her only daughter to be even higher than her three sons.

Under this circumstance, tennis, equestrianism, sailing and other sports, as a hobby, there is no problem; but if you want to become a professional, you must not do it.

In the gap between the exchange of serve, Tang Huan pointed out his daughter, "Your sports talent is at most the same as those of the European royal family. You will occasionally show it at events such as the Olympics."

Athena smiled innocently and said: "If you have a chance to use your skills, it will do."

...

After spending some time in the playground with the children, Tang Huan went to wash up and prepared to eat together.

Although there are many rooms for the host’s house in Chang’an City, the richest man has no intention of arranging all the women together, and Gein’s doing that is purely asking for trouble.

The true meaning of Chang'an City is not to have an extra comfortable nest, but to give the Tang family a spiritual totem; as for the development of a national historical landmark like the Rockefeller Center, it takes time to settle down-Tang Huan’s life is basically the same. No need to think about it.

If after a hundred years from the richest man, future generations are unwilling to bear high inheritance taxes, or cannot pay millions of dollars in property taxes each year, then the best destiny for Chang'an City lies with the newspaper tycoon William Hirst. Like the Hearst Castle built in California, it was donated to California for continued maintenance.

Of course, given the current prosperous development of the Tang family, it shouldn't be a problem for Chang'an City to stand tall for two generations.

At the huge long dining table, the richest man said with earnest words: "There is no banquet in the world. When one day, when you are flying around like dandelion seeds, don’t forget your childhood. I spent it here."

This can be regarded as a family motto—the little ones around the napkins listened carefully.

The richest man doesn’t have to talk about it. After talking about it casually, he waved his hand and smiled: "You are all hungry after exercising for a long time? Let's start!"

...

After the official opening of Chang'an City, Tang Huan held several banquets in succession according to the circles of political and business celebrities, it, Hollywood, etc., which made the media addicted and finally got a glimpse of the true face of Lushan here.

On such occasions, showing how luxurious and comfortable, too earthy, not up to the grade, the spiritual food for the richest man to entertain guests is his museum.

Among them, there are manuscripts and paintings worth tens of millions of dollars, and although they are rare and usually worth tens of thousands of dollars at most, it is quite difficult to make a complete set of objects.

I have to say that this reflects the broad interest of the richest man.

For example, there is a personal computer development history exhibition area in the Chang'an City Museum. From the earliest altair_8800 to the latest model of Fangyuan personal computer, a lot of them add up, and there is not necessarily a page of manuscripts of genuine value. It can be expected to be so neat. The lineup is really not easy.

You know, altair_8800, an old antique with no display and no main box, at that time, the official sales amounted to only a few thousand units. Today, 20 years later, if you want to find a collection of satisfactory color, it is not what you imagined. Of course it is simple.

In the era of big data on the Internet more than ten years later in the original time and space, there was an interesting experiment conducted by the American media, that is, to find an old-fashioned personal computer from the windows_95 era, which is equivalent to the current Fangyuan personal computer product. A group of middle school students operate.

The result: Although they searched for the power-on button for a long time, they were basically able to start the computer successfully; but after entering the windows_95 desktop, they were at a loss-even if they saw the iconic "Start" menu, they were still worried. How do I open the program? How to access the internet? Head full of fog.

Moreover, many children can't even shut down the computer properly. Gein, the ibm-pc in the windows_95 era, has a feature, that is, windows_95 shutdown is a "soft" shutdown, and there is no "hard" cut off the power-the monitor still has a picture, and the host power is still running, requiring the user Do it manually by yourself.

This experiment reflects the situation: the speed of personal computer development is really too fast, and the upgrading of more than ten years may cause a gap.

The current situation is also the same. When visitors saw the altair_8800, a personal computer older than Apple-ii, they couldn’t help but ask questions: “In terms of input and output, there is no keyboard, mouse, monitor and printer. How should users operate? ?"

Tang Huan explained with a smile: "See that row of devices like switches in the transformer box? The user translates the desired operation into a binary combination according to the instructions, and enters it; the execution result is that The output of a row of indicator lights is either bright or dark. As for the specific content, the user has to translate it by himself according to the instructions."

The people who suddenly realized it could not help being shocked on the spot: Is this thing surely the first successful commercial personal computer? Twenty years ago, people were really willing to pay for this torturous thing?

Unknowingly, the achievements of the personal computer industry that Tang IT has led for more than ten years have left an indelible impression on everyone through the shock of strong contrast.

In short, it is a word: convinced!

Before Fangyuan's personal computer, people were in a primitive era!

...

On this day, Tang Huanzheng and James Cameron were chatting about the movie "Titanic", and Zhuang Menghua personally sent two latest news about the Bank of Bahrain and the retired Russian aircraft carrier.

"The mess of the Bank of Barings, besides us, at least ING is also interested." Zhuang Menghua said: "The British side hopes that you can come to talk in person."

"The Bahrain family and the Berenberg family have been in close contact for nearly a hundred years, and they can always play a role at critical moments." Tang Huan nodded slightly.

He is not surprised by this situation. After all, Bahrain Bank’s global assets cannot be wiped out all at once, and it still has special value in the eyes of some people.

Zhuang Menghua added, "The British royal family is about to visit South Africa. Queen Elizabeth hopes that it is best to meet you before leaving."

Tang Huan smiled and said, "Why, is your Majesty worried that her money will go to nothing?"

"The meaning revealed here should be the poor performance of the Bahrain family, which disappointed the United Kingdom." Zhuang Menghua analyzed: "Just last year, the chairman of the Bank of Bahrain, Peter Bahrain, also vehemently denied the role of the balance sheet, and Bahrain The bank has failed to separate the most basic transaction and clearing links. Allowing Nick Leeson to play a trick on it is no longer an'unprofessional' description."

"By the way, where is Nick Leeson?" Tang Huan asked with interest.

"After his deeds were revealed, Nick Leeson left a'sorry' confession, went from Singapore to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, and then disappeared-Singapore police is looking for him." Zhuang Menghua smiled: "No I know what Peter Barin felt when he saw Nick Leeson’s letter. Why, are you also interested in this man of the character?"

"It seems that Nick Leeson is planning to go to jail, and he wants to return to the UK to go to jail." Tang Huan said leisurely: "I am really interested. What a good negative textbook this is! I think Nick Lee Sen should write a book about this. I thought about the title of the book for him. It's called "How I Broke the Bank of Bahrain."

"Could you not be so entertaining." Zhuang Menghua laughed for a long time, and then said: "You are a fan of the concept of the Russian aircraft carrier, including South Korea, India, etc., all of the remaining three Kiev Class-class retired aircraft carriers have expressed interest-Russia, which has always hesitated whether to trade, has a sense of waiting for the price, and it has to convene all parties to discuss."

Tang Huan raised his brows, "Which company is South Korea also wandering in this muddy water?"

"It should be the Daewoo Group." Zhuang Menghua replied casually: "In recent years, Daewoo Group has proposed the development goal of'World Management', relying on the preferential policies of the Korean government to encourage overseas investment, and large-scale mergers and acquisitions of enterprises on a global scale. In early January this year, it announced an investment of 350 million pounds in the UK to build a new car factory and provide a large number of new jobs."

"A soap bubble blown up by debt, dare to fight with me." Tang Huan snorted disdainfully, "The aircraft carrier is a bit nervous in terms of time."

The richest man is extremely shrewd, but on the question of how much money he has, he can also count "" this unit, which seems a bit "confused."

Think about it, if the Hanshin Earthquake hadn’t occurred, it would really be possible for Nick Leeson to use leverage to help Bank of Bahrain make a fortune instead of losing US$1.4 billion; what about the financial model run by the supercomputer of the richest man?

For the richest man, money is really a number.

What he needs to consider now is how to spend money-this is a profound knowledge!

According to Tang Huan's plan, Russia's fourth Kiev-class aircraft carrier, which is the most advanced one, the Gorshkov, wanted to get Funan.

Originally, the transformation of the Gorshkov would take time, and if the Funan Navy wanted to freely fiddle with it, it would take time-time is not tight.

Little South Korea dares to add to the chaos-can you compare with India, a traditional customer of the former Soviet Union?

Zhuang Menghua spread his hands, "If you are dissatisfied, then go to the negotiating table and talk."

Tang Huan tapped his finger on the table, "Notify the Russian team that the Gorshkov's offer can be mentioned-I will go to Russia after I finish the work in the UK."

...

The richest man sat on his Silicon Valley One. After arriving in the UK, he first met with Queen Elizabeth who was preparing to visit abroad in a very low-key manner.

As a facade of the United Kingdom, the preparation for the royal family’s trip is not generally cumbersome, and in some places you have to pay for it yourself-if you mess up ~www.readwn.com~ the image of the royal family is damaged, then there will be doubts about its existence. Not!

The richest man naturally understands Her Majesty’s concern for the Bank of Bahrain, but he certainly can’t mention the vulgarity of “money”. He just expresses his thoughts euphemistically and clearly. “The fall of the Bank of Bahrain also means the British In the glorious history of the banking industry, only the Rothschild Bank is left in the world-this is really an embarrassing thing."

Queen Elizabeth also regretfully said: "Many people nowadays are very impetuous; Tang's knighthood that values ​​honor is really precious."

...

After having a romantic conversation with Her Majesty the Queen, the richest man immediately attended a round table meeting attended by the British Ministry of Finance, the Bank of England, and the Bank of Baring.

"Everyone..." British Chancellor of the Exchequer Kenneth Clark took the lead to speak.

After the "Black Wednesday" when the British pound was sniped in 1992, Norman Lamont, then British Chancellor of the Exchequer, did not resign as if he took the blame, but stayed in this position until May 27 of the following year. Replaced by Kenneth Clark.

This person is a veteran politician. Since 1985, he has joined the Thatcher cabinet as the Comptroller of the Ministry of Finance; since 1988, he has served as the Minister of Health; in the Major Cabinet, he has served as the Minister of Education and Science, the Minister of the Interior, until now. Chancellor of the Exchequer.

Norman Lamont said unhurriedly: "...If you can come up with an ideal solution, the Bank of Barings can sell it at a symbolic price of 1 pound."

I was thinking about the richest man on the Russian aircraft carrier. He was really impatient with the parliamentary debate and interrupted: "I'm willing to bid 100 dollars..."
