Rebirth of the Tech Madman

Chapter 461: Countdown to the listing of Fangyuan Computer

Tang Huan raised his eyebrows and said playfully: "Time magazine is really new and innovative. The personal computer is just a cold machine, and it has been connected by you and the Man of the Year."

"This choice does not violate our original intention to select the Man of the Year, does it?" Michael Moritz smiled slightly, "You know, 1982 was a year of turbulent times in the personal computer industry. Believe this, you know it best. Because of the efforts of you Silicon Valley elites, the entire United States now has a clearer understanding of personal computers. And this influence is enough to be named the Man of the Year."

"You persuaded me." Tang Huan Shen nodded with approval.

What Michael Moritz said is not an exaggeration. After years of accumulation, the entire personal computer industry began to shine in 1982.

Apple, the first to taste this sweetness, sold 279,000 units throughout the year, and the latter ibm- has an annual sales volume of 200,000 units, showing the strong background of the Blue Giant.

With the price advantage of cheap personal computers of several hundred dollars such as Kang Mao Da and Tang Di, the shipment volume is also very impressive, with hundreds of thousands of units.

As for the Fangyuan personal computer and its compatible computers, with an annual sales volume of 840,000 units that almost suffocated investors, it topped the list in this industry, arguably the leader, and initially established Fangyuan’s personal computer standard market advantage.

[

The major Japanese manufacturers authorized by Fangyuan personal computer compatible computers are currently mainly engaged in grabbing the share of the Japanese domestic market. With the maturity and optimization of production, market, and service links, they are bound to aggressively attack the North American market.

By the time. The position of Fangyuan's personal computer standards will be stronger.

Maybe Fangyuan Computer's cutting edge is too scary. The ibm v. Compaq infringement case that caused a lot of noise some time ago. It turned sharply, and finally ended in reconciliation.

Compaq paid a protection fee of 1 million U.S. dollars to Giant Blue, which was regarded as its own portable personal computer product and obtained the rightful identity recognition.

Everyone with a discerning eye can see that the sudden "magnanimity" of the Blue Giant was because of fear of the strong rise of Fangyuan Computer, which changed his mind and accepted Compaq, the younger brother of the ibm-standard camp.

To know. Fangyuan Computer Company is not only the business of Fangyuan Personal Computers. It is an office equipment department that handles printers, fax machines, card readers, etc., and the system service department of Fangyuan Personal Workstations, Fangyuan Network Servers, etc., as well as the world’s best The supercomputer department, which is the throne of powerful computing, has amazing profitability. Together, they helped Fangyuan Computer's annual operating income cross the threshold of 5 billion U.S. dollars, and stepped on the big brother HP of Silicon Valley.

Fangyuan Computer Company ate its mouthful, and the price was that ibm, which almost dominates the computer market, was robbed of some delicacies.

It can be said that Fangyuan Computer Co., Ltd. took less than four years to quickly grow into a competitor that even Big Blue had to face up to.

Compared with this overall situation. Compaq computer cut and played the behavior of ibm-cheese, and ibm can appropriately forgive it.

maybe. This little brother can really help the ibm-standard camp expand its territory and involve Fangyuan Computer's attention in the low-end PC market, so that the blue giant has time to think about how to counteract Fangyuan Computer's aggressive offensive in the traditional high-end field. .

There is no doubt that the insight of Time magazine is very keen. The editors have noticed that under the background of the economic downturn, the rapidly growing personal computer industry has brought positive changes to the entire United States. He did not hesitate to give the crown of Man of the Year to the personal computer.

"When I think about it now, last year we voted you as the Man of the Year. What a deserving one." Michael Moritz said as he took out a photo, "This was taken by our personal computer. portrait."

Tang Huan took a closer look and saw that in the photo was a model of a Fangyuan personal computer, and a model of a half-opened Fangyuan notebook computer stood beside it.

"What are you doing with such a troublesome model? Just take a new ready-made computer from me to save trouble." Tang Huan said with a smile.

"We still need to pursue a certain degree of artistry. Besides, using your Fangyuan computer directly will help you do free advertising." Michael Moritz shook his head repeatedly.

Tang Huan cut, pointing to the model of the Fangyuan laptop in the photo, and said: "This type of Fangyuan laptop is currently the only one with no semicolon. You put it in the photo, what is the difference from the advertisement."

"That's no way. Who will let your company's technology go ahead of others, and we think this product is cool enough." After Michael Moritz complimented, the topic turned around and talked about it. Business.

"In addition to selecting the personal computer as the Man of the Year, we also planned a series of interviews with Silicon Valley entrepreneurs, so I have to ask you to cooperate."

"No problem." Tang Huan happily agreed, but when he saw Michael Moritz directly call the photographer over to give a face-to-face interview, he couldn't help touching his bare head, and smiled bitterly: "It's not necessary to take pictures, right? I will ask you to find other suitable photos for you."

"Of course I need to take a picture. Your image is trendy enough and it will definitely make the reader's eyes shine." Michael Moritz smiled, pointing to Tang Huan's manners, and asked casually, "This bald head, Is it to pay tribute to the upcoming Fangyuan Computer Company?"

"A hairstyle~www.wuxiaspot.com~ How can there be so many sayings." Tang Huan didn't want to make a fuss, and took it with one sentence.

...

Tang Huan's bald head is not only bright, but also cool enough. When he was ringing the New Year's clock for the New York Stock Exchange, he was really abused by the weather in New York.

For Tang Huan, this bell ringing ceremony was nothing to be excited about. It was just an icing on the cake during the countdown phase of Fangyuan Computer's listing.

But in the eyes of this wealth myth that is about to be born, Tang Huan is the focus figure who does his part. Although he is indifferent, he still attracts a large number of reporters.

"Tang, do you use this hairstyle to express the excitement brought about by Fangyuan Computer's listing?" a reporter quipped.

"I can't talk about it, this bald head has no special meaning." Tang Huan, who was full of confidence in every gesture, replied loudly: "To tell you the truth, my heart is very calm. In my opinion, Fangyuan Computer's Going public is a matter of course, and its performance and prospects are worthy of the favor of investors." (To be continued...)
