Reborn Capital Madman

When latecomers adopted existing achievements, they actually missed a lot of things that would help them understand this achievement.

It’s like some first-floor owners, because they feel that they can’t use the building elevator at all, cannot understand why they have to pay for the maintenance of the building elevator; but they don’t know that in the 1950s, the first payment was paid for the sale of building sub-units.

When implementing the law, regulations on the maintenance of public interests of buildings were made by referring to the law; otherwise, the sales form of building sub-units would not exist at all.

Besides, the existence of personal computers, Internet and other technologies that have profoundly influenced the human world. After the latecomers took it, they can indeed use it very well, but they always lack a trace of indescribable "spiritual energy", and then with the birthplace of the United States.

A level missing.

Perhaps some people will attribute this phenomenon to the fact that the United States is a superpower with the most abundant resources in the world, so naturally everything can be done best.

However, Gao Xian, who is in chaos in time and space, has another understanding after launching Huanyu personal computers, that is, personal computers are not just high-tech achievements, commercial products, advanced tools, and cultural elements that cannot be ignored.

.

It must be admitted that there is no ideological confinement in the United States, and it can also be said that there are all kinds of weird things.

For example, there has long been a saying that large computers are accomplices of large enterprises and government control of the people.

At this stage, counter-culturalism is prevalent in American society. Hooligans are said to be domineering, chicken thieves are said to be shrewd, stupidity is said to be simple, and Gao Xian doesn't know if there is any, but he understands that everyone is

Being able to own a personal computer is a sign that the people have escaped from the control of large enterprises and official governments, and a considerable consensus has been formed.

Through the vivid reports of market investigators, Gao Xian seemed to see how the maverick anti-mainstream fighters pointed at Huanyu's personal computer and shouted loudly.

Gao Xian couldn't help but mutter in his heart, no wonder a weirdo like Jobs can succeed and become famous. Apple loses Jobs and loses his soul.

Since Huanyu personal computers have reached the forefront of the US counter-cultural storm, sales are naturally rising. After the earliest batch of more than 800 bookings were met, the purchase demand surged towards the dealer Ruixia like a tide.

In less than a month, more than 3,000 units were sold.

Thanks to Gao Xian's foresight, Huanyu Electronics is not a small workshop in a garage. Otherwise, these influx purchase needs will definitely be scheduled until next year.

According to this sales trend, Huanyu personal computer annual sales volume exceeds the five-digit pre-determined target, which is really a bit conservative.

The reason why the market reaction is so fast and enthusiastic is that in addition to the real appeal of the banner of counterculture, it is also due to the developed communications, postal networks, and the communication between counterculture fighters and technical fanatics is very fast and convenient.

Charles Dondy, who was so excited by the good market situation, came to Gao Xian personally and said, "Hurry up and use the monitor as the standard configuration of Huanyu personal computers. Ruixia's sales network has received hundreds of individually purchased monitors.

Order."

Gao Xian nodded and said, "Don't worry, a batch of monitors will arrive at the port soon."

If Gao Xian had a personal computer in the form of a small workshop, Huanyu's personal computer would have come out long ago. The reason for this year was that in addition to being patient in the top-level planning of the ecosystem centered on Huanyu's personal computer, it also needs to be

If manufacturing is standardized, the processing in small workshops will definitely not be able to become a climate.

Such as monitors, keyboards, tapes, tape drives, floppy disks, floppy disk drives, power supplies, bus interfaces on the motherboard, etc., they are all manifestations of manufacturing standardization.

When Huanyu personal computers were first launched on the market, many buyers didn't know what the product was like, so they only bought one host at a cheap price, and then used a channel of the TV to receive the output results just like a home TV game console.

When the customer recognized Huanyu's personal computer, he could not tolerate using a TV as a display terminal, so he purchased an additional special display.

Gao Xian estimated that with the further use of Huanyu personal computers, the problem of insufficient memory capacity will be highlighted. At that time, the demand for memory expansion cards will be stimulated, and the profits here are quite considerable.

"How is the market response of home TV game consoles?" Gao Xian asked instead.

"Very good," replied Charles Dondy. "However, there are a lot of sounds that complain about the tape loading speed too slowly."

Gao Xian nodded slightly, "These issues will be improved by waiting for the next generation of products launched next year."

After Charles Dondy left, Gao Xian specifically instructed Zhou Wenyao: "Be careful of those small personal computer workshops that will surely spring up like bamboo shoots after a rain. If the popularity is too high, we will have a promotion with Ruixia and suppress it;

If someone is willing to accept the bus and operating system standards of Huanyu personal computers, just treat the other party well, just give it a little bit of patents."

Zhou Wenyao asked for instructions: "For those guys who imitate our products too much, will they not use legal weapons for the time being?"

"It's not very meaningful to use a small workshop to start a surgery, but it's aroused a lot of trouble and was accused of bullying the weak by public opinion." Gao Xian pointed out: "We should aim to accept the standards of Huanyu personal computer bus and operating system."

...

After explaining the precautions to his subordinates, Gao Xian's attention temporarily moved away from personal computers and game consoles, and was invited to meet Charles Bludorn, the boss of Bay and Western Industrial Company.

After Gao Xian became a shareholder of Paramount, he began to clearly support the Hollywood giant that had been selling himself to Charles Bludoen a few years ago. Their income was even better than the result of Robert Evans turning the tide after taking charge of Paramount.

The first floor is very dazzling in the financial statements of Gulf and Western Industrial Corporation, which in turn also pushed up the stock prices of Gulf and Western Industrial Corporation.

But Charles Bludoen didn't have much time to worry about, so he was worried about finding Gaoxian to relieve his worries. See if Gaoxian could help find a suitable new Paramount president.

It must be admitted that the current Paramount President Robert Evans does have two brushes.

When Charles Bludone bought Paramount, Paramount was not an ordinary mess. The truth was obvious, it was not a desperate situation. How could a Hollywood giant like Paramount give outsiders the opportunity to recruit themselves?

Robert Evans, who was appointed in danger, was just an unknown person at that time, but he was able to lead Paramount out of the predicament and achieve success in succession, which made the boss Charles Bludoen, unable to be dissatisfied with it.

However, Robert Evans has a big appetite. As Paramount president, he still wants to continue to retain his previous identity as an independent film producer.

To put it bluntly, while enjoying the authority and treatment of President Paramount, Robert Evans also wanted to get another generous income from an independent film producer.

Because Robert Evans managed Paramount quite well, Charles Bludoen agreed to his conditions.

However, other producers under Paramount were increasingly dissatisfied with this, believing that Robert Evans used his convenience as President of Paramount to give him special care for the film project he served as producer and lost his

At least fairness.

This contradiction broke out in the upcoming movie "Chinatown" and it was necessary to make a decision when it came to Charles Bludoen.

Hollywood's "deep water" is reflected in many aspects. In addition to the movie's income can be a mess, it also includes the complex checks and balances between various forces.

For example, the power of Hollywood's union should not be underestimated. It was just a while ago that a new temporary balance was reached.

In this case, Charles Bludoen dared not really be arrogant and domineering all the way to treat fairness as nothing, so he let Robert Evans serve as both the president of Paramount and the independent film producer.

After all, no matter how well Robert Evans manages Paramount, he cannot finish everyone's work. People's hearts and hearts cannot be ignored!

Robert Evans, seeing that the revenue expectations of the movie "Chinatown" are very good, he would rather quit his position as President Paramount than retain his independent producer status as "Chinatown" so that he can get more abundant

return on income.

Charles Bludoen, who was a little caught off guard, was very angry.

Robert Evans recommended a successor, Richard Silbert, but it was precisely because Robert Evans aroused public anger that the Richard Silbert he liked was even more experienced.

I'm afraid it's hard to convince everyone.

Gao Xian had long heard of what Robert Evans did, so the situation was not surprising at all to the point where Charles Bludorn was worried.

First of all, Robert Evans would rather give up President Paramount than retain his decision to be an independent producer of the movie "Chinatown", which Gao Xian could understand.

After all, the overall situation in Hollywood is not optimistic at this stage, and I don’t know when the decline will stop. It bottoms out and rebounds. In addition, the boss Charles Bludone is not easy to serve, so the position of President Paramount is a little bit

It's not easy. When Robert Evans accumulates almost the same resources and is enough to ensure the chance of successful project operation, it is really not as comfortable as an independent film producer, and it is dedicated to making money.

However, understanding is understanding, Gao Xian is not optimistic about the future of Robert Evans, who stepped down as Paramount president.

Logically speaking, even if a person who has been the president of Paramount and has outstanding performance during his term of office should still be a great man in Hollywood, but in the "old script", Robert Evans quickly fell into decline.

He was caught by the police because he transported drugs and he committed suicide.

There are all kinds of weird things in Hollywood. Gao Xian estimated that Robert Evans might be involved in drugs now. This habit is quite delaying the serious business. He voluntarily resigned from his position as president of Paramount, which may be a good thing.

More importantly, Gao Xian saw that the Hollywood president change created by Robert Evans gave him the opportunity to strengthen his control over Paramount.

Charles Bludoen, who was worried about this, pushed this opportunity further to Gao Xian.

"David, you are so popular in the Hollywood filmmaker circle. Why not gang Ramon finds a president to calm the company's hearts and minds," Charles Bludone asked expectantly.

These words from Charles Bludoen touched the itchy part of Gao Qian, making him smile with smugness without any concealment.

Through the symbiotic guerrilla kidnapping storm, Hollywood filmmakers such as George Lucas and Spielberg are definitely friends with Gao Xian.

During the rescue of Gao Xian, these people actively running around is a proof of their deep friendship.

Going further, Gao Xian's loyalty in times of crisis has become a convincing character charm through the verbal chanting of everyone present, and of course it is suitable for doing things and doing things.

Gao Xian thought for a while and analyzed seriously: "Charles, since you trusted me with this matter, I will analyze it first and see if we can reach a consensus."

"To be fair, Robert Evans' recommended successor, Richard Silbert, is indeed a Hollywood filmmaker with sufficient qualifications, but this is not necessarily the case with which he is good at making feature films.

Enough leadership to lead Paramount to stride in the thorns.”

"The overall decline in Hollywood is an indisputable fact, and Paramount must find an extraordinary sunny road."

Speaking of this, Gao Xian deliberately asked Charles Bludoen a question, "Charles, do you know why Hollywood is currently on the decline?"

Charles Bludoen casually replied: "There are a large number of viewers stolen by TV."

"That's right!" Gao Xian looked admiring and gave a thumbs up. "The rise of TV is also an indisputable fact, but it must face a reality clearly. That is, the source of the program is insufficient, and it has to be unstoppable.

Looking for Hollywood to shoot TV series.”

"In other words, if you want Paramount to make money continuously, you have to adapt to the reality of the rise of TV and enhance the power of TV program production."

Finally, Gao Xian emphasized, "So, I think that in addition to running the original company business, the new president of Paramount must also have a vision for the TV industry."

Charles Bludoen was completely convinced by Gao Xian and nodded repeatedly, "David, what you said makes sense. Paramount's new president should be such a standard. You should follow our consensus,

Go and find someone.”

Seeing Charles Bludoen's complete delegation of power, a smile flashed in Gao Xian's eyes and muttered in his heart: "The new Paramount President I have found must be, and if necessary, stand on my side."
