Reborn Capital Madman
Chapter 0101 The star product after the calculator
I have to say that Charles Dondy is a reliable person. He is very concerned about the exclusive agent of Huanyu Calculator. He sent a check of 100,000 US dollars and a letter of credit of 250,000 US dollars without any delay.
.
"Look, our money is enough." Gao Xian smiled at Ma Yongda and said, "Call Intel and notify Robert Noyce to come and sign the contract with his lawyer. We will cover the car and horse fee."
Gao Xian did this not entirely to put on airs, because the batch of goods from the Xiangjiang Cotton Textile Industry Association happened to arrive in Los Angeles, and he, as a director, should do everything himself.
After Robert Noyce arrived as promised, he found Gaoxian in the spacious warehouse area.
Both parties were very happy to see that they could finally sign the contract.
Gao Xian gave Robert Noyce 80,000 US dollars, of which 60,000 is the full ownership of the future Inte1-4oo4; the other 20,000 is the advance fee for Intel to use this general-purpose chip to develop terminals.
To be honest, given the fact that Intel's graphics cards are really bad, Gao Xian doesn't think that Intel can change its shortcomings in graphics and image display, but its advantage is that its labor is relatively cheap, so let's give it a try.
After killing Robert Noyce, Gao Xian's affairs on the west coast of the United States came to an end, so he and Ma Yongda boarded a plane and rushed to Boston in northeastern America.
Last year, Intel's annual revenue was only $500,000, so Gaoxian could naturally drink around its CEO, Robert Noyce; but Ken Olsen, the CEO of Data Equipment Company, couldn't do it.
Gao Xian had to rush over to meet in person.
After all, although the current data equipment company is still a long way from the throne of the overlord of small computers, its annual sales are already at the level of tens of millions of dollars.
Since I was coming to Boston, Gao Xian added a trip to himself and visited Wang'an Computer Company, which is also headquartered in the Boston area, to investigate the current situation of another celebrity product after the calculator - word processor.
The publicity work in the US industry has been done well, which has made many Chinese people worship successful entrepreneurs such as Jobs and Gates. However, in fact, in the early days of the computer exhibition, there were also examples of successful Chinese entrepreneurs, such as Wang An.
Compared to the age of the 1980s and being powerless, Wang An is now in the stage of being young and strong, ambitiously angrily yelling at the Blue Giant.
It is not difficult to imagine that Wang An’s entrepreneurial journey in the United States was very difficult, and his grudges with ibm were also formed during this period.
In computers with von Neumann structure, memory is an extremely important component.
In the early days, there was only one solution for paper tape.
The working efficiency of paper tapes can be low even if you think about it with your eyes closed, so a solution for magnetic core memory came into being.
Wang An has patents in magnetic core memory and is favored by the mainframe overlord ibm, but the transaction process between the two parties is very unpleasant, and the Blue Giant is only willing to give 500,000 US dollars.
It is impossible for the field of intellectual property to be nailed, and the ground is clearly distinguished. Many technologies are studied at the same time. Who can become the first? Sometimes it can be resolved peacefully, and sometimes it is inevitable to make tricks.
Take the expert in integrated circuits as an example, the Americans themselves are in a mixed bag.
First, Franklin learned to award the Barlandin Medal that American technicians most hoped to receive to Jack Kilby of Texas Instruments, and Robert Noyce, who was still at Fairchild Semiconductor at the time.
Among them, the former is known as "the Mingjia of the first integrated circuit", while the latter is known as "the first person to propose an integrated circuit theory suitable for industrial production."
Finally, the year before yesterday, the US Federal Court legally recognized that integrated circuits were a "simultaneous illumination", which made the controversy among the wise men of integrated circuits finalize.
There must be such room for disputes in the research of magnetic core memory.
ibm fell in love with Wang An's magnetic core memory patent, but he didn't want to pay more, so he said that we are also studying such a technology. If you don't sell it now, you will wait for us to successfully research and file a patent dispute lawsuit.
Bar.
Wang An, this little shoulder-length head, could not withstand the blue giant? He could only swallow his anger and took 500,000 US dollars to start his own business.
Such a small thing, in the huge ibm empire, has long become a natural means of commercial competition in business, and it will pass, but Wang An must have left a knot in his heart and secretly held it in his heart.
A spirit of fighting for breath.
You should know that in the 1960s when ibm launched the system/36o mainframe, it was the period when the Blue Giant reached its peak.
Its market value reached 192.3 billion US dollars in 1967, while the GDP of the United States was only 830 billion US dollars at that time.
If it were the evaluation criteria in the Internet era, stock market stars such as Apple, Facebook, Google, and Microsoft would only be crushed.
It is no exaggeration to say that the Blue Giant has no rival in the computer industry, and the media has described the computer industry as "Snow White and the Seven Dwarves".
Who is the "Snow White" and who is the "Seven Dwarves" is self-evident and clear at a glance.
Therefore, Wang An must have no choice but to use the entire ibm, so he can only make trouble for the other party in a small place.
So a few years ago, Wang An saw the business opportunities of calculator. With his outstanding mathematical skills, he developed the "Rose" calculator priced at $6,500, and immediately became the darling of the market, even the New York Times
, The Peanut Stew Post and other mainstream American newspapers have reported this grand occasion.
Wang An's "Rose" calculator is not mainly aimed at the mass market like Gaoxian Huanyu calculator. Instead, he snatched up some market demand that could only be calculated on mainframes at that time, thus adding to the Blue Giant.
block.
With this good market trend, Wang'an Computer Company made a big profit and listed it with assets of nearly 80 million US dollars.
The calculator market is so hot that it naturally attracted strong players such as HP and Texas Instruments to enter the market and share the pie.
Wang'an Computer Company stopped when it was good, withdrew from the calculator market and turned to word processor products.
The so-called word processor can be understood as implementing the functions of word processing software through hardware.
The reason why Gao Xian calls word processors a celebrity product after calculator is naturally because of its market potential.
Imagine that the white-collar workers in the office have left such as electric typewriters.
The winning point of word processor is the ability to modify the document. As long as it is successfully launched, you will definitely be able to use this to kill ibm's electric typewriter and then count the money.
After getting off the plane in Boston, Gao Xian and Ma Yongda also rented a car locally and then went straight to Wang'an Computer Company.
