Chapter two hundred and eighty fifth, tripartite cooperation
Ge You once said a famous saying: Talent is the most important in the 21st century.
Alice is undoubtedly such a character for the arms dealer and the Pentagon.
Although Alice lives very low-key in her usual days, her talent is beyond doubt. Perhaps for ordinary people, her achievements seem to be just a fool, but for people in any industry, countless people have been talking about Alice's various things.
First of all, a twelve-year-old girl single-handedly made a complete computer operating system that could be directly sold on the market. What is this concept?
Just look at how many programmers there are in the world and how much effort it takes to develop their corresponding products, which is enough to make people understand thoroughly.
What's more, when Alice takes this technology to invest in Microsoft, it's the most typical comparison.
At that time, Microsoft had 55 programmers. Although it didn't seem to be many, who could be called programmers at this time, who was not a top student who graduated from an Ivy League prestigious university? So, one person is equal to fifty-five people, a twelve-year-old girl's week is equal to fifty-five programmers who enjoy a monthly salary of nearly 10,000 yuan, and have worked hard for nearly a year. What is this concept?
It can be believed that if Alice had not been a corporate boss-level figure when she was famous in the industry, she would have been a business boss-level figure, rather than an ordinary worker. Then, large-scale computer companies such as ibm, Intel, HP, and even Japanese companies such as Sony, and even Lockheed, which requires a lot of programming, would immediately give Alice Cto a position of one million annual salary, and give it to option shares or even direct shares. Come on, such a strange talent is firmly locked.
It looks like you are heading to the peak of your life every minute.
And this is just one of Alice's achievements.
The second achievement was the establishment of Cisco. With technology orientation as its core competitiveness, it created a whole new industry, the Internet hardware industry. Moreover, although the company it founded has only been three years, it has achieved a monthly profit of US$30 million, and has firmly guarded its position as the leader in the industry, leaving Lucent Technology, which ranked second, out of a big stage. What is this concept?
Alice was still only twelve years old at that time.
When a girl who was only fifteen years old had created two technical myths, people would naturally have higher expectations for her. So, when countless generations of weapons were suddenly displayed in the movie, how can people not have such an idea again - can you really design them?
After all, at least the Gauss-powered firearms used by the Marines in "Alien II" are not too high-end weapons.
"So, please let me sort out the situation."
At this moment, Alice was sitting in the conference room. After walking for a long distance with needles, she said slowly, intending to make a summary speech.
She looked around first.
At the oval conference table, she faced with Chief Defense Secretary Weinberg. She was beside her two bigwigs from Lockheed and General Dynamics, while Weinberg was surrounded by seven or eight generals from the three major US troops.
At this moment, everyone's eyes were focused on Alice, and she was the well-deserved focus in the whole house.
"My learning ability is excellent. After learning from other things, I am also very good at turning theory into practice. If I were asked to design new weapons, it would be fine in theory. At most, I would give me some familiar time."
First, I gave a positive reply. Sure enough, everyone in the house showed a grin of relief and excitement. Then, Alice continued to say slowly: "It can be seen that we are now a multi-party cooperative relationship. Your Pentagon is a customer and a provider of R&D funds; Lockheed and General Dynamics are the direct manufacturers of products as veteran arms dealers; I am responsible for R&D, and from the perspective of actual efficiency, I alone should be equivalent to a whole high-end R&D team."
Alice said very calmly, and did not forget to observe the expressions of everyone.
It was true that when she positioned her role to this level, no one questioned or heard a joke-like expression, and they were all listening to her seriously. Oren Lockheed even nodded in agreement, although the degree was almost invisible, but Alice noticed it.
"But I am not a military entrepreneur, and I am also busy with my own career. I am not a job seeker who is working hard to find a job. If I were to do research and development with certain special teams every day and night like a traditional technician, I would like to refuse."
She said this, but of course she didn't block the topic, so everyone was quietly waiting for her next sentence. It was very clear that almost everyone's eyes were constantly flashing, and they were all calculating their own little plans.
"So, I think we should be able to make a more special contract, a tripartite employment contract. Mr. Lockheed and Mr. Clark, it seems that you are the partner you Pentagon chose for me?"
As he said this, Alice glanced at Dominic Furley, Director of the National Security Agency.
She didn't forget what happened just now. It was clearly Falier who called her to the Pentagon by phone, but the meeting was indeed the Secretary of Defense. When Falier finally broke in with the excuse of "being delayed by other work", within half a minute, the other two arms dealers entered one by one, and both explained with the bad excuse of "the hotel was out of power."
Anything tricky?
Of course there is something wrong with the development of new weapons. There are too many benefits involved. The triangular confrontation between arms dealers, military and congressmen, and randomly drawing up individual events is enough to perform a hundred "New House of Cards".
The headquarters of the Department of Defense, the U.S. Army, the U.S. Air Force, the U.S. Navy, as well as Lockheed and General Dynamics, are all big names.
Regardless of whether there is a secret agreement between the military and the two arms dealers in this transaction; no matter how the two arms dealers deal with the Pentagon when they get the quota; no matter why the big guys present are almost all acquaintances of Alice. Is it just because Alice happens to know Oren Lockheed and William Clark?
——It doesn’t matter.
This has nothing to do with Alice.
So, they are just a skill-based person.
And they are not "short for money".
You all revolve around me.
It's the seller's market now.
It's not in vain that Alice has looked at her watch so many times. By the way, it's already lunch time. The meeting ended and everyone went to have a meal first, but the lunch didn't take long. It just took a quick break in the internal restaurant of the Pentagon. After Alice's seven giants got drunk, she returned to the conference room with the waiter's stunned expression.
Then, after a whole afternoon of discussion, the final agreement was barely released.
First of all, the confidentiality agreement must be signed. If Alice leaks the relevant information of this cooperation and even various information during the cooperation process to a third party, that is, other arms dealers and even countries, then of course, what should be done and how to deal with it.
For example, if you are a treason, you don’t treat you as a human being every minute and every second, and you can play all kinds of plays at will.
Well, so Alice won't be stupid.
As for the content of cooperation, it is very complicated to say, and it is simple to say.
He is still a pirated name like a technical consultant, and the title of chief designer is still too a bit too high. Thinking of the talent of the sextant Yi Fuyan who was hired into the crew, it is always right to be low-key.
Just like Apple, as long as it becomes a classic, Apple is not just an apple, it also represents an apple. Too much trouble to a job title, it is not Alice's style.
In the partnership, Alice is equivalent to her brain. After the Pentagon decided to develop what to do, she was responsible for the design, and then issued various instructions to the two arms dealers: design this way, design this way, use this material, and do that kind of experiment for me. Why do you design it so rubbish? Come on! Why did your experiment fail again, change it like this!
——This is basically it.
As for how much money is needed during the research and development process, it means that the body feeds the demands back to the brain, and the brain then prays to "God", and then the holy light comes, and then the body, which is about to lack nutrition, will naturally gain a second spring.
——This is basically it.
Of course, the two major arms dealers are not brainless children after all, and they will stop without their mothers. They themselves have many excellent designers. So in daily life, Alice doesn't need to stay in two large companies all day long. She just needs to give guidance when needed like Microsoft's development of WindowsNT.
But here comes another issue: the confidentiality of the project.
That's why we have to sign a confidentiality agreement.
As for the benefits Alice herself can get...well, can it still make itself suffer?
"Huh... I'm so exhausted!"
It was night and the preliminary agreement was basically completed, and it was time to end the meeting. When I walked out of the Pentagon, Oren Lockheed looked at the stars all over the sky and twisted his waist lazily.
"You are less than thirty-five yet, right? Is the lumbar disc herniation?"
Before Oren could sigh anything, Alice, who followed closely behind, drifted out a word, and immediately dissipated his breath that was so easy to hold.
"The lumbar disc herniation!?"
Oren smiled bitterly and turned around, but saw Alice standing alone in the open space. The cool breeze blew at night and her hair was dancing, which was so charming.
In an instant, he was stunned.
Chapter completed!
