Last night, Deng Lijun, who was light-hearted and poignant, made her debut on stage after a year and seven months away and gave a wonderful performance to more than 3,000 audiences...

The income of more than one million yuan from this concert will be donated as patriotic self-improvement funds.

...

This afternoon, Deng Lijun gave the cheque from her charity singing, 1.5 million and five hundred yuan, to Liu Kanru, general manager of TTV, and asked him to transfer it to the special patriotic self-improvement fund account.

Deng Lijun said that she is very grateful for the benefit performance organized by TTV.

...

Because Tang Huan is too busy here in Japan, Deng Lijun’s October 4th concert, he can only learn about the situation through the newspaper that Shi Chongtang brought, and it is not much different from the original time and space. Whenever big scenes are involved, he must stand clearly. The team, it can be said that it has a vivid color of the times.

At this time, Shi Chongtang walked in and said with a wry smile: "These Japanese people think that the three authorized places for a generation of Fangyuan computers are too few."

"They don't understand that with so many manufacturers all at once, will everyone have operating pressure?" Tang Huan put down the newspaper in his hand.

"Seeing that other colleagues have an opportunity to make a fortune, I was so anxious to ignore it." Shi Chongtang shook his head, expressing helplessness.

Tang Huan pondered for a moment. The mentality of these people is easy to understand, just like people waiting for the bus to go to work during the morning rush hour of a metropolis. Before getting in the car. Squeeze up desperately; after getting in the car. I hope to drive quickly to prevent others from continuing to squeeze upwards.

"Then add one or two more places." Tang Huan also had to give in and continue to expand the vested interest camp, so as not to push the little Japan really urgently and join hands regardless of gains and losses.

This is also the reason why Tang Huan called Shi Chongtang, he did not want to be held back by these specific matters.

After Tang Huan inspected the production line of the second-generation Fangyuan computer monitor at Sharp, and returned to Tokyo, he met with Li Jianxi again.

The prince's movements are naturally quick. It has been approved by the Samsung Group to set up a personal computer department to produce a generation of Fangyuan computers in Korea.

At the same time, Tang Huan formed a project team to develop a coding scheme corresponding to South Korea. The original time and space was similar to the Japanese ksx1001, but it has not yet appeared. The gap in this standard is naturally filled by Tang Huan.

After confirming all these things related to Samsung, Tang Huan looked at Shi Chongtang and joked. "You, the vice president of the Asia-Pacific region, now have another piece of land in his hands."

"Chongtang will do her best. Repay Mr. Tang for his appreciation." Shi Chongtang solemnly stated.

Tang Huan nodded slightly, picked up the file and looked at the list of authorized computer manufacturers, and found that Toshiba and Sony were among them.

"Interesting." Tang Huan laughed playfully. It seems that these two important PC manufacturers in the future will have to rely on their own computers to start in this field. "The task of investigating them is left to you. I have to Back to the United States, there is the main battlefield."

"I will work hard to turn the Asian market into our back garden." Shi Chongtang expressed his stance again.

...

Before returning to the United States, Tang Huan returned to Xiangjiang.

On October 10th, Baodao organized a celebration here. After Deng Lijun, who was brought in, attended the four-day and seven-day concert at Lee Theatre from the 11th to the 14th, and also invited TVB’s. Gold medal emcee Deng Yingmin served as the host.

Tang Huan caught up with the middle one, and took Zhou Mi and Lu Xiaohu over to admire them, but when he looked at the villa information that Zhou Mi handed over, he couldn't help frowning.

This is a two-storey large house with garden and garage. It is located at No. 18 Carmel Road, Stanley. It covers an area of ​​7,150 square feet and a saleable area of ​​2,623 square feet.

This is a coincidence. After a few years, this villa can still come to Deng Lijun like the original time and space.

"Is it dissatisfied? I've seen it on the spot, and it's not bad." Zhou Mi complained, "You specified to select only in this area of ​​Hong Kong Island, and you have to act low-key. It can be said that time is tight and tasks are heavy. This place, if you don’t want to go and inspect it yourself, the conditions in all aspects are indeed very good."

"No, just here. I can't believe you. It was just an accident." Tang Huan waved his hand.

"I have to find someone to arrange the decoration and let Xiaohu Lu and the others take care of it?" He was relieved and thoughtfully, and joked.

"That's for sure." Tang Huan rolled his eyes, "We have received so many helpers from the Mainland, isn't it just for our own reassurance."

Lu Xiaohu murmured a little regrettably, "I heard from the inside information that Mr. Zhou received that Xiangjiang’s arrival policy may be cancelled in more than a week. If someone is picked up at that time, there will be no ID card. So easy to get it."

"You are content, there are almost two under your hand, enough to deal with the situation." Zhou Mi shook his head disapprovingly.

"I don't feel enough. The guy who stole the game cassette has been found. I have been wondering how to deploy troops to get them out of the nest." Lu Xiaohu's expression was bitter and bitter.

Tang Huan listened with a smile. He seldom intervened in this kind of thing. The four diamond combinations, Lu Xiaohu, Zheng Gang, Yang Qinglin, and Wei Jun, had always been handled properly without dripping water.

For example, when Tang Huan sent Weng Jingjing home last time, the two guys who knocked down on the road had already been found out. They were stubborn. After we borrowed some travel expenses from Weng Jingjing’s mother Zhao Xiaoyu. , And they had a car scratching with them so desperately. So, for the sake of safety, Lu Xiaohu and the others took measures to avoid future troubles.

Seeing that the concert was coming to an end, Tang Huan left Lee Stage and went to the Peninsula Hotel. When Deng Lijun arranged a place to live. Specially reserved rooms for him.

When the two can finally talk to each other face to face. Deng Lijun rushed into Tang Huan's arms, hugged him tightly, and muttered to himself, "When I was on the island, I always felt covered by an invisible net. It would be better in Xiangjiang."

"Then try not to return to Baodao. Anyway, you have received the official understanding." Tang Huan gently patted Deng Lijun on the back, "The villa on the Xiangjiang side has been selected. You can find a time to see it yourself. Let's design how to decorate, and then we will settle down."

"I didn't expect you to act so fast." Deng Lijun, who was in a much better mood, praised with a smile.

"I'll do something for you, I can't do my best." Tang Huan smiled and hugged Deng Lijun, "I have to seize the time to comfort you, a star that has attracted much attention. It's really not easy to take advantage of this kind of gap."

"I'm tired, so I don't need your condolences." Deng Lijun gave an unsatisfactory push to the man who was in a hurry.

"Well, it's not enough for you to sympathize with me." Although Tang Huan compromised, he was very decisive in action.

...

Tang Huan returned to Xiangjiang this time very low-key. But he still did not forget to ask Zhu Bangfu whether Gu Long came to Xiangjiang.

October 22, 1980 in the original time and space. Gu Long was drinking and having fun at the Yinsong Pavilion in Beitou, but was chopped by Ke Junxiong's attendant. He almost died due to excessive blood loss. It is said that he was infected with hepatitis during this blood transfusion because of a source problem.

No matter which one is right or wrong, since he met, Tang Huan came to "Tune the Tiger from the Mountain" handily, so he came to Gu Long to ask about the progress of adapting the video game based on his novel, and let him come in person. Visit Xiangjiang, stay for a month, all travel expenses are inclusive, he only needs to give some suggestions to the development team like a movie screenwriter.

After receiving the affirmative reply from Zhu Bangfu, Tang Huan breathed a sigh of relief after Gu Long had come to Xiangjiang, and hurried back to the United States.

...

At the moment, it is the donkey and elephant war that has entered the white-hot stage. The game has reached the third stage. The two sides have respectively launched the final candidates-Carter and Reagan, to conduct face-to-face pk.

Not long after Tang Huan arrived in the United States, he received a message from Robert Bartley, the editor-in-chief of the editorial board of the Wall Street Journal, that he was coming to Reagan in California, hoping to meet Tang Huan.

Bartley, a proponent of the supply school, appreciates Tang Huan and the market demand stimulus that personal computers can bring, and Reagan, who once worked as a correspondent for Bartley, praised the set of economic theories of the supply school. Bartley played the role of matchmaking invisibly.

Reagan, who moved from the Democratic Party to the Republican Party, once worked as a Hollywood actor, and served as governor of eight years between the current governor of California, Jerry Brown, and his predecessor, Pat Brown. Reagan was not without roots on the West Coast of the United States. This time he came to California to gain his reputation, which can be called murderous.

The so-called meeting is to canvass for votes. Regarding Reagan, who has already seen the advantage, Tang Huan naturally has no reason to refuse.

And I bought it with Markkula, a small business jet Lear 35 that can take 8 people, I have already started it, and it's just time to experience it.

After Apple went public, the four billionaires naturally had to buy some high-end toys. Airplanes became a must, but Jobs rejected Markkula’s suggestion to buy a learjet together, and instead asked Apple to buy him a Gulfstream. Airplane, I bought a luxury car.

Although Tang Huan was very knowledgeable, he really couldn’t understand Jobs’s thoughts. He didn’t bother to go deep into it. He simply joined Markkula’s group purchase, planning to use Learjet 35 as a short- and medium-distance transportation tool, such as this I met Reagan from San Francisco to Los Angeles this time.

The official vote is about to be held in more than half a month. Reagan’s schedule is not generally tight. Tang Huan and some other people were gathered at a banquet and saw Reagan in a packaged form.

Although only a few minutes of conversation time, Tang Huan is confident that he can leave an extraordinary impression on Reagan. At the very least, such a young billionaire is rare even in the United States.

After dealing with this social event, Tang Huan went to visit his twin sons, and always let the elderly take care of the children. As a father, he was really far away from the word "competent".

Maybe Deng Lijun is not in front of him. Deng's mother is very calm to Tang Huan, which saves him a lot of flattering thoughts. Turns to a detailed introduction to Deng Lijun, who has made a comeback. Deng's music pop after returning to Baodao.

The children's achievements are so high. There is no reason for the parents to be upset. Mother Deng's eyes were smiling, and she shook her head again and again, "This girl is still so strong."

Tang Huanle didn't want to steal his life for half a day while watching his son, and to please Deng Lijun's mother-in-law and brother-in-law. As a result, Cupertino's subordinates in Silicon Valley called for help. Jobs always came to philosophers these days. Staring at the second-generation Fangyuan computer placed in the entertainment area, I look like I can’t wait to cut it off, making everyone mess up.

Jobs hung the title of a philosopher director, and the people below were not good at expelling him, but he had no idea. Now that the big boss has returned to the United States, he should report it quickly.

After Tang Huan got the news, he couldn't help feeling a little helpless. What kind of fame does this guy want to do?

Since becoming a billionaire for more than a month, celebrities like Steve Jobs. One can imagine the degree of popularity he has received. He is also personally entangled in various non-Apple trivia. Tang Huan had heard of it a long time ago.

For example, although Jobs is not a particularly charitable person, he still participated in charity activities.

He founded a fund, but unfortunately, the guy hired to manage the fund soon got annoyed.

This person always talks about new ways to do charity and how to use donations, which makes Jobs start to look down on people who always talk about charity or think that he can completely change charity.

In addition, Jobs simply sent a check for $5,000 to help Larry Brillant set up the Seva Foundation, which is dedicated to helping the poor fight disease. He even agreed to join its board of directors.

But in a meeting, Jobs had a dispute with a famous doctor on the board of directors. He believed that the foundation should hire Apple's public relations consultant Regis McKenna to help fundraising and public relations affairs, but the doctor suggested Objection.

Then, when Brillant brought several board members to Apple to raise funds for charity, Jobs did not satisfy them.

Of course, Jobs also did a reliable thing. He made the biggest personal gift, giving his parents Paul Jobs and Clara Jobs stocks worth about 750,000 US dollars. The old couple sold part of it to repay the mortgage on the house.

However, in general, Jobs, who became a billionaire, is still somewhat erratic and elusive.

With this in mind, Tang Huan didn't dare to be sloppy and hurried back to Silicon Valley. The result happened to catch up with the glaring Simeone and the confrontation with Jobs. It turned out that this guy really planned to take apart the second-generation Fangyuan computer on the spot and study it.

"Steve, if you make trouble so unreasonably, don't blame me for using methods to remove your title of director." Tang Huan warned with an unhappy expression.

"What are you nervous about? I just want to study it. Isn't your product going to be launched on the market? At that time, it will be disassembled and analyzed by competitors." Jobs spread his hands nonchalantly.

"Even if you are right, but this time point is pushed back enough for us to accept." Tang Huan dragged Jobs away in an angry manner, "I think you seem to be very leisurely now, you are almost overpowered. Go, come to me Office, tell me what you want to do."

"It seems that you intend to violate the original gentleman's agreement and begin to prepare to sell personal computers in the United States?" Jobs asked with nostrils in the sky.

"It's not a violation. The kind of personal computer you just wanted to take apart is a new product. The microprocessor it uses is not the current 8-bit." Tang Huan smiled slyly, "I see you The mentality is very peaceful, it seems that this is not surprising."

"I had expected that you would try your best to take advantage of the loopholes. Now that you see the results, it is naturally nothing strange." Jobs snorted disdainfully, "Are you planning to directly compete with Apple computers?"

"Of course not. I actually abide by the gentleman agreement." Tang Huan shook his head earnestly. "The kind of personal computers you see will appear on the market as mid-range and high-end models. The squeezed living space, for example, is a bit similar to the Lisa computer that has just failed and is being developed."

"The Lisa computer is a graphical user interface. Your computer is just nothing new, so I am embarrassed to jump out and become a competitor." Jobs began to mock.

"When the Lisa computer comes out, it is estimated that it will be two years later. I don't know how many mid-to-high-end computers I will sell by then." Tang Huan smiled and was immune to ridicule.

"You'd better show me the internal structure of this kind of computer, otherwise, I will take advantage of your absence and take advantage of the loopholes to dismantle." Jobs directly threatened.

"Your curiosity is really strong." Tang Huan shook his head helplessly, "Actually, if you explain your thoughts to me earlier, I will agree to it. You can't make trouble outside so stiff and the influence is too bad. ."

"How do I know when you will be so generous and noble?" Jobs waved his hand impatiently, "Don't waste time, hurry up and find a host."

Tang Huan called the technical department ~www.wuxiahere.com~ and asked them to send a prototype, and then curiously asked, "Do you have a R&D project team now?"

"Knowingly asked, I have been emptied like this since I left the Lisa project team." Jobs's face suddenly became dark.

That said, Jobs hasn't started to grab the project team.

"Steve, have you forgotten? In Apple’s old office building, there was also a R&D team named Macintosh, isolated from the world. It had only four engineers, and the leader was Ruskin. "Tang Huan reminded.

"? Ruskin?" Jobs muttered twice, his face beaming with joy.
