Chapter 223 Rebirth and Death

Dave, president of ibm, is a man who has been in this position for five years.●⌒, he is not the best technology in ibm, the most business in ibm, and the most harmonious interpersonal relationship processing.

But when ibm chose the president, he sat in this position. The reason is very simple, he is a pure businessman.

There is only one principle for businessmen, that is, go to profitable places!

"President Dave, Isn't this a normal thing for ibm to have an objection to the alliance against ibm?"

Simon Clay took the lead, and a chuckle sounded in the conference room.

"No, I mean, I have an opinion on this alliance! Do you understand? ibm does not oppose the alliance of 'opposite ibm'. However, there should be a voice of ibm in this alliance."

Dave found a seat at random and sat down, but everyone present seemed to have become petrified.

What's going on?

How to eliminate Hitler when the Allies hold a meeting? Should they also invite Hitler to attend and express their opinions?

"President Dave, are you kidding?" Simon Cree looked at him with suspicious eyes.

"Mr. Clay has had a long contact with ibm, so you should know that ibm is not a joke." Dave cleared his throat and said, "There is a Chinese proverb called 'no no one can meet each other'. I think from this perspective, ibm and Mr. Simon Clay should have been old friends who have known each other for a long time."

"IBM has contributed to the US electronics industry. The Manhattan project has ibm's perforated computers. The North American air defense network uses ibm's smart computers, the world's first transistor computer, and the Apollo project server. I'm just saying that in the US computer industry, no matter what business is involved, it's like the United Nations cannot leave the United States."

"I think this metaphor is not very appropriate." Simon Cree and Ibm are really as close as the sea, but of course, there are many people who are as deep as the sea. Dec's Olson also hates the waters of the four oceans that cannot be extinguished.

"Yes. I think ibm is not suitable for comparison with the United States. If it were the Soviet Union, it would be almost the same."

"hehe."

Dave was not angry, and even nodded: "Mr. Olson said this, I have no objection. It is not bad to be a Soviet Union that has shed blood for the United States and made contributions."

"But even the Soviet Union is also something that cannot be avoided by any United Nations."

"Even if the United Nations meets to discuss declaring war on the Soviet Union, wouldn't the Soviet representative have the power to veto it?"

"Okay, Mr. Dave." Simon Clay interrupted him and said bluntly: "If you are here to visit us to nail the last nail on the ibm coffin, please."

"Well. I think ibm will have a different understanding." Dave put down a piece of information from his hand and was on the conference table: "In fact, I would rather understand that ibm has brought the last and most solid cornerstone to the league. With this cornerstone, only by 'opposing ibm alliance' can we truly fulfill our mission."

"Mr. Dave, are you crazy?"

“ell…”

Dave was stunned for a moment. He showed a memory expression and sighed and said with a laugh and cry: "When I first learned about this plan, I thought I was crazy."

"But it turns out that genius' thinking sometimes seems crazy, but it makes people want to try it."

He clicked on the file on the table and opened the cover to reveal the title inside: "I want to inform you about something. ibm company used 1% of its shares to acquire 50% of Cisco's shares from Mr. Hu Wenhai."

"What?"

"Hu, is this true?"

Everyone present looked at Hu Wenhai in amazement, unable to believe what they heard was true.

The pioneer of resisting ibm, the proposer of server-to-client system, and the inventor of drawer servers. It can be said that today's opposition to the ibm alliance is absolutely inseparable from Hu Wenhai's strong promotion.

Why did such a person suddenly sell his Cisco shares? This was like stabbing him hard in the back of the Anti-IBM Alliance!

There were disbelief, shocked, angry, contemptuous eyes in the crowd...

Everyone was waiting for Hu Wenhai to give them a reasonable explanation.

"Yes, I have transferred 50% of Cisco shares to ibm."

The most shocking thing was Leonard. He looked at Hu Wenhai in disbelief and asked in disbelief: "hy?"

Hu Wenhai shrugged and looked at everyone present with a calm look. He said innocently: "Everyone, this is ibm1% shares, and I have no way to refuse such unreasonable requests."

...

Damn it’s “unreasonable request”! This should be the line from ibm!

What's wrong with you? Please let us meet such "unreasonable requests" too!

At this moment, I really know that many people have passed ten thousand "grass mud horses" in their hearts.

However, except for Leonard, this explanation is "fucking" enough, but it is indeed a convincing explanation.

Ask yourself, if they change to Hu Wenhai’s position, can they really have 1% ibm shares in front of them, can they refuse?

Simon Clay asked himself that he could refuse, Olson needed to think about it, and Bill Huttleley would agree without hesitation. And the others here would definitely not be much higher in this matter than Hu Wenhai.

That is 1% of ibm's shares. Even if you have money, you can't buy so many stocks in the market. Just like Microsoft stocks in later generations, there are too few stocks that are truly involved in circulation in the market, and those who can buy them will be happy to invest in long-term holdings.

Although ibm's assets are "only" more than US$30 billion, its 1% stake is definitely greater than US$300 million.

But even if he rationally agrees with Hu Wenhai's choice, this does not mean that everyone can accept such betrayal from the perspective of emotion. You must know that the one who keeps shouting the hegemony of ibm is Hu Wenhai.

The leader just ran away like that, and even exchanged 50% of your shares for ibm1% of your shares. Isn’t this a cheating alliance?

ibm holds 50% of Cisco's shares. Although he cannot be the leader of Cisco, he can at least reject any decisions made by Cisco.

Without Cisco's router technology, how can we do communication between different systems? What else can we do with the server-to-client system? This directly destroys the foundation for the establishment of the alliance!

"So you betrayed all of us? After doing such a big thing, wasting so many people's energy and feelings, and in the end you ruined the alliance with yourself?"

"Haha, Mr. Hu, do you think we are easy to cheat. There is no way to deal with you, right?"

Everyone here, today all the people who come to the company can make the decision. Most of them are either founders, CEOs, presidents, etc. If such people get angry, they can really make people's scalp numb and their feet tremble.

However, Hu Wenhai's expression had not changed. He even smiled at the corner of his mouth, and resisted such pressure.

"How do you say this?" Hu Wenhai spread his hands innocently.

"What's the point of selling Cisco shares to ibm? The alliance will not exist anymore, and of course there will not be a unified PC standard."

"Yes, we spent so much energy, and in the end we just helped you get 1% of ibm's shares. OK, it's such a good method."

Obviously, everyone was already out of their anger.

Faced with the anger of the entire computer industry, unless Hu Wenhai no longer intends to get involved in the electronics industry, he will definitely be unable to move forward in China and even in the electronics field of the entire world in the future.

"Everyone, everyone!"

Suddenly, Dave clapped his hands hard, and he stood up and looked down at everyone: "Everyone is a successful businessman, I have a saying to everyone! Mr. Olson said that I can compare ibm to the Soviet Union, so I will quote one sentence. Let us let go of prejudice and hatred, so that all we lose is the chain, and what we get will be the whole world!"

"I said from the beginning that ibm comes today just to make his own voice! It is to seek a place in the league, not to destroy this league!"

"ibm, I hope to let go of past conflicts with you and become a member of this alliance together."

...

Everyone here looked at Dave as he was stupid.

This is ibm. The blue giant ibm. No one expected that he would see ibm surrender one day in his lifetime.

To put it bluntly, Dave is a qualified businessman. He can see that although this alliance is still under the banner of opposing ibm, it is doing the industry alliance.

Once the alliance is actually established and operated, it will be a monopoly organization that is even more terrifying than ibm. So when Hu Wenhai proposed to invite ibm to join the alliance, although he was shocked at first, after careful and calm consideration, Dave finally chose such a shocking path.

The addition of ibm will be the last and most important puzzle for the alliance to complete the dominance of the entire computer territory.

Only after ibm joins, Americans will no longer have the power to "vote with their feet" when choosing computers. Just like Americans can only choose the Democratic Party or Republican Party in politics, or Chinese netizens can choose China Unicom or Telecom Internet access, but who can choose to provide you with a service port is Cisco, Huawei, or ZTE?

Next, it is time for big companies to share the cake to deal with ordinary consumers.

The computer industry in the United States regenerates a terrifying monster at this moment.

The computer industry in the United States has also announced its death at this moment.

Hu Wenhai smiled with satisfaction.

Chapter 224 Refreshing the Three Views

Statue of Liberty, a famous American landmark, is an indispensable attraction for traveling in New York.

In August, Hu Wenhai, who had temporarily handled all the things at hand, finally had some time left. Lu Xin, who had been walking around for more than two months, called Hu Wenhai to abuse child labor, and finally blackmailed him a chance to travel.

As for the first stop of the relaxing holiday, Lu Xin chose the Statue of Liberty unswervingly.

Moreover, it has been proved that even without a cell phone with a camera, it cannot stop women from taking selfies. The fact is proved that selfies are indeed a rigid demand of human nature.

"Your big face is moving forward, hurry up, help me get the camera!" Lu Xin reached out and pushed Hu Wenhai's "big face", and hurried behind him.

Hu Wenhai held the Polaroid Polaroid camera with amused and laughed and pressed the shutter for taking pictures with the sound of "eggplant".

With a click, a Polaroid photo was spit out by the camera. The image has not been displayed immediately.

"Hey, Americans' lives are so good." Lu Xin supported her head and supported her elbows on the railing of the Statue of Liberty and looked into the distance.

Looking out from the head of the Statue of Liberty, which is nearly 100 meters high, you can see the scenery of Liberty Island in the Hudson Estuary. Lu Xin shouted and danced excitedly, but Hu Wenhai did not react.

After all, he has never seen many views that are taller and more magnificent than this. In terms of the pure tourist attractions of the Statue of Liberty, he really has no great interest.

"Why did you finally go out for a trip? I didn't see you any difference between you and you were usually?" Lu Xin was a little sulky and a little curious: "Hey, Hu Wenhai, you are really only nineteen years old? Why do I feel like there is a middle-aged man hidden in your body. Everything is in your calculations, and nothing can surprise you."

"Ah, you know." Hu Wenhai shrugged. After being in the United States for a long time, his body language has been a little affected.

"I think scenery like Mount Tai, Mount Hua, and Changbai Mountain is more interesting and meaningful than this artificial environment."

"You are so boring!" Lu Xin hummed twice and wrinkled his nose.
