Chapter 61, Cisco's first order

It is two o'clock in the afternoon, the most poisonous moment in the sky.

Most of the guests who should have had their own groups and talked around the auditorium had left the auditorium at this time. After a long time of drinking party, it was time for scholars who found their own partners to come to the conference room to conduct further academic discussions.

At this time, no one would enjoy the drinks originally planned to be in the auditorium anymore, but each conference room also has delicious drinks. Although this is not the kind of luxury gathering in the upper class, it would be too embarrassing if the organizer could not even do this service.

In this case, the presidents of the University of California, California, California Institute of Technology, University of Southern California, Northridge California State University, California State University in Los Angeles, Antioke University Los Angeles Campus, Mount Mary College, and Loyola Maryman University, a total of no less than fifteen universities located in Greater Los Angeles County, and the corresponding computer department chairs gathered in a conference room.

"The router in my company has five computer-oriented interfaces, which means that it can connect five computers. My father is also a UCLA teacher at least. I have been to the university teacher's office several times. Generally speaking, one office is more than enough. After all, computers are not cheap. You haven't had the luxury of having one, right?"

Alice's small leather bag was placed on her legs with her mouth open. The information she had prepared was browsing by the presidents of various universities and the chairmen of the computer department. The above is a detailed introduction to the functions of the router product.

"Indeed, indeed."

California Institute of Technology president Fennik nodded repeatedly.

As early as when he was called by his colleagues, he had no idea what was going on. A little girl wanted to sell network hardware equipment to universities? If he took apart every word of this sentence, he could understand it, but when he heard this whole sentence, even though he was very knowledgeable, he felt a little stunned.

But now, after listening to her explanation of the entire technology, after reading the manual provided by Alice, he kept nodding: "Generally speaking, except for the computer system, although there may be more than a dozen people in a department, there are only three to five computers configured. After all, we basically use computers to perform various computing exercises, and there is no need for everyone to use one."

"Can your router really replace the central control computer we use now? Child, have you really seen that central control computer? It is quite large and the price is very high, but your router is too..."

"But if it can be achieved, it will really save a lot of costs, especially now that the field of personal computers has also developed. If we want to achieve more efficient and cheap networking, we really need to eliminate our current equipment."

"James..."

The principal of UCLA looked at James happily. When such news came from his daughter, he certainly had to push down all social engagements to accompany him: "You and Sophie are really a genius girl. Not only can you write books, but you are also so knowledgeable in this field. Wouldn't you be good at liberal arts and science at the same time?"

James's face was flushed at this moment. He sat beside Alice, watching the presidents of nearly twenty universities in the audience reading materials and discussing, and his heart was so proud that he reached the peak.

"God just favors it, God just favors it..."

Especially when he was praised by the principal of his school, James could only talk about socializing in a few words, only half an hour before and after. Every principal would take some time to congratulate him while studying and explaining. For James, who has been a teacher for more than ten years, he was completely undescribable to his happiness after receiving their envy and praise for his daughter!

More than ten minutes passed, and everyone in the audience read Alice's information in their hearts. Naturally, no secrets were leaked, it was just a simple product manual. Alice knew that it was the prototype stage of the Internet hardware market. Once her affairs were spread today, there would definitely be a first wave of competitors, and she would not provide convenience to her opponents.

Of course, Alice had already read the router patent certificate to the people present and accepted their repeated technical questions. Of course, the core secrets were never revealed. Just when James regretted not bringing his wife, his daughter's words and deeds finally made him feel relieved.

In this way, the two who replied on the spot that they would buy this batch of routers were UCLA and California Institute of Technology. Considering that James and Alice were also their own people, the president of UCLA said on the spot that he would also call Burke, which was equivalent to three orders from the three universities.

However, several other universities said that they still need to consider it again, and Alice understood this very well. Taking three orders in one go is completely enough for Cisco at present. After all, the entire company has only three employees!

“We will count the purchases as fast as possible.”

Principal Finnick of California Technologies smiled kindly at Alice as an elder, saying, "After all, our school has to do too many experiments. Whether it is the analysis of seismic waves, the analysis of basic physics experimental results, or the calculation of chemical chain reactions, it requires computers. If the network interconnection can be achieved in such a cheap way, then you are simply our little hero, Alice."

"Where I can make this thing, it has something to do with my usual accumulation."

Of course, Alice had to be modest and said happily: "I went to the UCLA campus for nothing, and even went to the computer room many times under my father's guidance. Your university's computer department has also visited a lot. Although the teachers don't know me, many students know me."

Alice is sincerely expressing her modesty. After all, it only took a week from programming to producing the finished product, and it is directly at the world's leading level of high quality. If she tells the truth... this is a university, there are laboratories here. Even if California Polytechnic is a science and engineering subject, these principals in front of her must be in charge of the medical school, right?

She doesn't want to be dissection...

"It seems that James really gave birth to a little genius. Alice, have you passed the SAT exam?"

Sure enough, UCLA principal, Leicester Banning said: "SAT has several exam opportunities every year. If you go and take it now, we UCLA will accept you right away!"

"Leicester, you are so despicable! Hello, Alice, the same is true for our USC. As long as you get a SAT score immediately, our university will accept you immediately! I believe with your ability, this exam will definitely not be difficult, right?"

“Our Mount Mary College is also open to you at any time, Alice, and we will provide you with generous scholarships, and enough honors and awards of all kinds, which will be your future…”

“Our Antioke University…”

For a time, after fully realizing Alice's talent, almost every principal on the scene made their invitation. Who can not hope that their school will have a genius, who can not hope that their school will receive more honors? Why not according to the current development trend, Alice may be a talent at the Nobel Prize level!

"Enough, you guys!"

Finally, Finnick, who was Caltech, shouted, and quieted the scene: "Invite Alice? You guys have not given her an order yet. It's like inviting her to go to college? Receive a scholarship? Does she have that little money? Also, federal law stipulates that at least nine years of compulsory education must be completed before she can take the SAT exam. She hasn't even been in the seventh grade yet, have you forgotten it!?"

In this way, the presidents of the university finally came back from their excitement and remembered the most fundamental issues that an educator should consider.
Chapter completed!
