Chapter 221 New factory goes into operation

Alfred Clooney.

A retired veteran who participated in World War II, he once participated in the U.S. Navy's underwater demolition team-the predecessor of the SEALs.

It was precisely because of his background that Catherine took a liking to him and hired him as the chief instructor of the Southeast Asian training base.

Alfred was also very excited after receiving the offer.

He had met the Royal Navy's Special Boat Regiment and fought alongside them after the Normandy landings. Therefore, Alfred had very strict requirements for the soldiers under him.

Alfred agreed very much with the concept of special forces put forward by Catherine. He believed that if the special forces could not reach the level of SBS (Royal Navy Special Boat Regiment), then there would be no need for the so-called special forces to exist at all.

This time Alfred came to the Southeast Asian base as the chief instructor, and Catherine's request for him was to be "strict and severe."

Alfred was excited. He knew that he could finally train a team of real special forces by himself...

For this reason, Alfred also worked hard to learn some Chinese.

Of course, it is not just these newcomers from Hong Kong who are being trained, there is also another fifty-man team - they are all veterans who have just retired from the Vietnam battlefield. These people chose to join because they could not adapt to life in the United States.

protective umbrella.

A ship arrived at this simple port, and then Alfred, the veterans he brought with him, and an interpreter set foot on this land.

Alfred was fully looking forward to contacting the new people, so as soon as he came up, he headed towards the camp.

For this reason, he even ordered the soldiers to be fully armed to show the importance he attached to the new people.

This military uniform was created by Catherine based on the new uniforms of the People's Liberation Army in the 21st century.

However, when he arrived at the camp, he was so surprised by what he saw that he was speechless.

——A group of people wearing only tops were lighting a fire with a barbecue on top, and each of them was holding a bottle of beer.

"How are you guys? There are eight horses..."

Lin Shenhe was boxing with his brothers at this time, but found that the guys suddenly became quiet. He was a little drunk.

Then, he raised his head in a daze and saw a group of foreigners in military uniforms. He shuddered and seemed to wake up from the wine.

"What...what's going on?"

he roared.

The newcomers were stunned.

"Sir, don't be angry, don't be angry..."

Lin Shenhe walked over with a smile and a cigarette.

"I saw that everyone was bored...so I took it upon myself to buy some food and drinks..."

Although Alfred was learning Chinese, he had just started. He couldn't understand what Lin Shenhe said. After the translator translated Lin Shenhe's words, Alfred kicked him in anger.

open.

Lin Shenhe was a little confused. He just saw that everyone was bored here, so he paid for it himself and hired a ship to transport some food from the Philippines. He didn't think he had done anything wrong.

On the other side, Alfred took an automatic rifle and pointed it at these newcomers...

"Da da da"

Bullets poured towards the feet of these people, and the scared newcomers were frightened and backed away.

After all the bullets were fired, Alfred calmed down, but these newcomers were so scared that their legs were weak, and even worse, they were so scared that they sat on the ground.

——Xue Ronghua was even more shocked.

He was now working hard to win over Lin Shenhe. After hearing Lin Shenhe's own introduction as the "general person in charge of Hong Kong", Xue Ronghua decided to instigate the opposition.

...But he didn't expect that at this moment, this new foreigner would actually kick the "General Manager of Hong Kong" over and shoot him with an automatic rifle...

"You bastards, listen to me."

Alfred roared.

"When you set foot on this island, you have already entered hell. Do you know that this is hell?"

Alfred growled.

"Here, there is no beer, no rest, only war, war, all training is actual combat. When you set foot on this island, you are training all the time."

Alfred was extremely angry.

"The easiest day here is yesterday forever" - this sentence was said by Catherine, and Alfred adopted it as his motto.

After hearing these words, all the newcomers were stunned.

"Okay, everyone has to stand up and line up."

After hearing Alfred's words, everyone looked at each other, wondering what Alfred meant.

"damn it."

Alfred immediately picked up Lin Shenhe who was lying on the ground.

"Don't you even have the most basic training?"

"I...we have been waiting for your arrival..." Lin Shenhe hesitated.

"good very good."

Alfred put Lin Shenhe down.

Now, his anger tank is full...

…

Alfred is preparing to start his special forces training, and here, Catherine has also returned to Hong Kong.

Then, she met Lin Shenhe who came to complain.

In fact, Catherine just wanted Alfred to train these Hong Kong people a little and let them understand the gap.

Lin Shenhe also received instructions from Catherine.

But Alfred actually trained these people as special forces... Oh, my God.

"Let them experience it first and then transfer them back to Hong Kong."

Catherine finally shook her head.

If that doesn't work, just establish another bodyguard base in Hong Kong.

——Stonecutters Island seems to be a nice place.

Although she is running an umbrella business in Hong Kong, Catherine has not forgotten that the electronics industry is her main business.

As soon as she arrived in Hong Kong, Catherine got the good news about the sub-fund.

Soros turned Catherine's 300 million funds into 700 million. According to the rules between himself and Soros, he can get a profit of 120 million, and the remaining funds will be given to the Quantum Fund.

Catherine immediately took action. She immediately transferred 400 million of the funds to Taiwan, and then started to build a new factory. Taiwan's preferential measures allowed Catherine's 400 million funds to have an effect of 800 million to 1 billion. This is also the reason for Catherine's thousands of The reason why we worked so hard to come to Taiwan to start production.

The output limits the development of Catherine's company. The number of products she can provide is far less than the market demand. Therefore, she must increase her output. Moreover, the output of tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands units is not enough, at least. It takes millions of units, tens of millions of units.

As long as the factory can be built within this year, Catherine can further occupy the market.

IBM's production capacity is not comparable to that of Catherine.

After settling the matter in Taiwan, Catherine made a phone call back to the headquarters and asked Sanders to release the news to stabilize the third party.

At the same time, Catherine also announced that the company would withdraw from the mainframe competition. From now on, Ark's mainframes will only appear in Ark's CNC networks specially designed for other companies.

In addition, Catherine's 16-bit CPU is also under development. Due to budget shortfalls, the Pentagon once again allocated $100 million in special funds.

Pip-Boy 1008 is performing very well, and Pip-Boy 1016 is so tempting. The Pentagon is very concerned about Katherine's products and attaches great importance to them. There are people there who make money. This has been a long-standing truth.

——And now is the Cold War. In this context, the ultimate goal of everything I do is to serve this purpose.

It can be said that Catherine's company has a bright future.

Now, the enemy that Catherine wants to deal with is IBM.

Fighting with the other party is obviously not an option. Catherine's announcement to withdraw from the mainframe market really made IBM breathe a sigh of relief.

After all, Catherine's machine is much better and cheaper than IBM's 360. The only drawback is that Catherine's company lacks production capacity.

Even so, IBM is actually one head and two big companies.

IBM's microcomputer plans suffered another major blow after Sanders announced that the company would open a new factory.

The current market is in short supply. Another reason why Catherine has not entered Japan yet is because of insufficient production capacity.

You know, since "Letter from Iwo Jima" was released in Japan, it has brought tens of millions of dollars in box office to Catherine, and many of these box office were brought by the Japanese.

This market is huge, but it is very difficult to eat it.

And Catherine is not completely withdrawing from the mainframe market.

Little Watson had already inquired about Wal-Mart—Catherine had established a dedicated line network for Wal-Mart in one go, and she found out this matter as soon as she checked.

Faced with the increasing pressure of Ark, Watson's IBM has no time to estimate, and Watson is still facing an antitrust investigation.

Third parties saw that IBM was in this situation and began to wait and see the situation. As a result, Catherine's basic market became more stable.

Due to the influence of many factors, although IBM is still profitable, the stock market has begun to show a downward trend.

Little Watson didn't know that this antitrust investigation would continue into the 1980s, and that it was because of this that IBM changed its previous sales methods.

But little Watson doesn't want to just sit back and wait for death.

"Entering the Japanese market"

Not long after the news about Catherine was released, little Watson made such a determination and immediately released the news.

After hearing the news, Catherine breathed a sigh of relief.

IBM now places its market abroad, which is also good news for itself.

But the problem comes again.

IBM is entering the Japanese market and will adopt a completely different PC architecture from Catherine Company... So, what should I do if I want to enter the Japanese market in the future?

Moreover, the computer architecture and operating system are different, and your own software cannot run on IBM's microcomputers.

This is not good news for myself.
