Chapter 299: Look at your lameness
"Zheng, your previous tone made me uncomfortable—"
Looking at the three catties of Australian lobsters put down in front of him, Bruno smelled the fresh fragrance wafting from the tip of his nose, but his mouth was expressing his dissatisfaction, he felt that he was offended by this kind of words: "Are you ordering us?"
"Thank you~"
thanked the waiter who put down the steak in front of him, and Zheng Jianguo picked up the knife and fork without touching the red wine on it.
It wasn't until he saw the waiters leave that Zheng Jianguo turned his head to look at Bruno, and after holding down the steak with a fork, he opened his mouth while cutting it with a knife: "You didn't say anything that made me uncomfortable, but even the company moved to Silicon Valley on the West Coast." They didn't even notify me.
In the end, it was you who remembered that there was going to be an annual meeting, and I was notified, Bruno, I ask you, do you think you are doing these things that make me very comfortable?"
"Well, Zheng, I was thinking I was going to tell you. ”
Seeing Zheng Jianguo put the cut steak into his mouth and chewed slowly, Bruno nodded with long eyelash eyes, and then pointed at Bob next to him: "If you don't believe it, you can ask Bob." ”
"I don't need to ask him, Bruno, I'm a very good talker, just like I've agreed to any of your requests since you appeared in front of me, including the three pounds of Australian lobster you had to eat before-"
Zheng Jianguo cut a steak into his mouth again and ate it, pointed at the lobster with teeth and claws on the plate in front of Bruno with the knife in his hand, and then continued without waiting for the other party to speak: "Maybe this gives you some kind of illusion that I am very good at talking, well, I don't emphasize this kind of expression beyond your comprehension, I just ask you, how do you feel about the idea of this project and game magazine that I brought?"
"I feel good about being able to keep magic cubes with me and have a community magazine for players, which I never dreamed of—"
Bruno blinked his eyes and spoke quickly, as he said, if you can put magic cubes in people's pockets, like Game &Watch on the table, it will definitely ignite the enthusiasm of countless players: "Now I want to try this console-"
"Zheng, we may have ignored your feelings before—"
As Bruno's voice fell, Bob quickly opened his mouth and said, compared with these four scheming programmer apes, he is the one in this small group whose IQ and EQ are quite passable, and immediately analyzed Zheng Jianguo's purpose now: "There is too little contact between us, we should hold regular meetings in the future, how about once a month?"
"This can be considered, now I want to discuss the company's next step, let's start with this magic cube and develop our own game console, you don't want to always rely on Atari consoles to develop games, right?"
Zheng Jianguo nodded and gave Bruno a step, of course, the movements in his hands did not stop, and as he cut a steak into his mouth again, he raised the knife and said, "You guys eat, don't just look at-"
"Okay, okay, let's eat. ”
Bob picked up the knife and pulled away the seemingly intact lobster, poked a piece of shrimp meat with a fork, dipped it in the seasoning, put it in his mouth, and ate it soundly.
Bruno looked at his movements, and then also ate the shrimp meat in front of him, and for a while there was only a burst of chirps on the table, and finally Bob opened his mouth and said: "Just continue to invest, Alain plans to buy a house in Silicon Valley to get married, Larica wants to buy a big diamond ring for his girlfriend, I feel that Zheng You can increase the shareholding ratio——"
"Well, that's what I thought too. ”
Sweeping the faces of the five people, Zheng Jianguo said that he had finally finalized the purpose of this meeting, and he didn't want to follow his gaze to Bob's face for a while, looking at the other party's flickering eyes, he suddenly realized what he was thinking, so he continued to speak: "As for the increase in my shareholding ratio, Bob is still in charge of administrative management and CEO in the company." Bruno is the CTO of the handheld project, CTO?
"Well, I may not be able to, Alain is better than me, and he has the fastest coding speed—"
Bruno immediately shook his head and said that he didn't need this position, and when Zheng Jianguo looked at him with a pair of idiot eyes, he didn't expect Larica next to him to also speak: "Yes, among the few of us, Alan has the best technology, this CTO, it should be Alan's, and he is responsible for modifying the program we wrote separately in the end——"
"But this and a CTO are not just management skills, they also need a certain amount of communication skills-"
Zheng Jianguo had to say his purpose again, and the reason why he asked Bruno to serve as this technical officer was because this thing would directly express his dissatisfaction, rather than hide it in his heart like others.
Although Zheng Jianguo was a little embarrassed by this situation, considering that he would not and could not send someone to manage the company, he was able to quickly know what these partners and subordinates were thinking, which helped him make a quick decision: "Considering that you sent him out to talk to me in the first place, it shows that you believe in his ability." ”
"Oh well—"
Bruno nodded again, with a reluctant look, then put down the knife and fork in his hand and touched the thin project book next to him, looked at the exterior design inside and the internal structure exploded diagram given at the back, and finally looked at the Game&Watch on the table, with a sudden look on his face: "The handheld of this magic cube is just an improvement made after enlarging this Game&Watch?"
"Yes, the size of the display is twice that of the Game&Watch, because the game is played from the top, so it is rectangular, and the number of five buttons on both sides and below the Game&Watch has also increased, and on the whole, it is still born from the design of the Game&Watch——"
Zheng Jianguo also looked at the Game&Watch on the table that he hadn't played a few times, which he bought specifically for this meeting, 34.9 US dollars made him feel painful, but he remembered the reason why he always had to give a magic cube handheld, and this money still had to be spent: "It's just that compared with the Game&Watch with a button battery, the magic cube needs to use the No. 5 AAA battery on the market to increase the game battery life, but have you ever thought about the problem on the Internet?"
"Problems on the Internet?Phone lines?"
The shrimp meat stuck in the knife didn't have time to eat, Alan quickly raised his head and said, Zheng Jianguo nodded and said: "Last time I saw a report on TV, an underage child used computer technology to hack into the computer host of the defense center, so his programming skills should be good, right?"
"Well, Kevin, I know him, he's amazing, he's so young—"
Alan immediately put down the knife and fork in his hand, looked at Zheng Jianguo and said excitedly: "We all know him, but network problems are not our strong point——"
"And how would you feel if I asked him to work in the company?"
The most important goal was achieved, Zheng Jianguo began to talk about the next topic non-stop, computer security is still a new field, as the world's first Kevin to be arrested for this, in his eyes is an expert in computer security.
The Internet will not be a hot spot in ten years, so he can start at a time when everyone doesn't understand: "His computer technology should be okay, right?"
"Of course that's good, I've wanted to meet this Kevin for a long time—"
Alan was still immersed in the exchange of ideas, and Bob had already entered the role of CEO in advance: "Zheng, what are you asking him to do? Moreover, he seems to be a minor-"
"Minors can also work, plus he is now more than 17 years old, presumably open him a programming position, you won't be jealous, right?"
Seeing that the goal was achieved, Zheng Jianguo's tone was also much more relaxed, compared with Kevin, who dropped out of school and was self-taught at home, these people are all from the university, the reason why he said it at this time is that he is afraid that a few people will look down on Kevin: "Presumably he will also be happy to learn from you." ”
"Zheng, if I can, I want to do an interview before you invite him, how do you feel?"
Before Zheng Jianguo's words fell, Bob quickly opened his mouth and asked, and the eyes of the other four people on the table forgot to come, and the former didn't think much about it with a smile: "You are the CEO of the company, of course you will interview if you recruit, I just made a suggestion, just when you go back, go to his house to have a look, I won't go." ”
"No problem, we also have the idea of relaxing this trip. ”
Bob's mouth opened, and Bruno grabbed ahead of him and said, the former couldn't help but smile at Zheng Jianguo's gaze, nodded and said, "Yes, we came out this time, and we also have the idea of relaxing, after all, we haven't rested for a while-"
"The last time I relaxed was after Christmas, when the Arcade project for Magic Cube was completed—"
Alan took the words with a smile, and after his eyes swept over Zheng Jianguo's face, he continued to speak: "Zheng, I heard that you and Camille are good friends?"
"Camille Small, it's a good relationship. ”
Zheng Jianguo looked at Alan in surprise, he didn't expect this person to mention Camille, but he remembered that these programming apes were almost the same as the otaku in his memory, usually programming at home or in the company, and all he could contact were plane girls.
Just when this thought flashed through Zheng Jianguo's mind, as if confirming his thoughts, Alain's red eyes flashed a few times, and he said, "That, Zheng, can you help me get a signed photo?"
"Of course that's fine, but it will take time-"
Thinking of the upcoming June, Zheng Jianguo's mind flashed Camille's movie, the first World Digestive System and Helicobacter pylori academic conference, and of course, the most important thing is the oil contract to be shorted, so he feels that he still has a lot to do: "How will her movie be released next month?"
"As long as you can help me come, I can wait as long as I can-"
Alan smiled with a flushed face, Zheng Jianguo's heart flashed with a sense of déjà vu, and Ye Zhenkai's cheeks appeared in front of him, the time was still when he was doing pathogenicity research in Qicheng Hospital, this thing said that he liked Jin Ayan, and he admired the other party's thoughts in and out of his words, but unfortunately Jin Ayan failed to win the Best Actress of the 3rd Hundred Flowers Awards-
In the past May 23, 1980, the Republic Film Association held a 17-year hiatus of the Hundred Flowers Award ceremony, of course, at this time the report said that the award conference, the first year of the "Little Flower" became the biggest winner of the conference, won 14 awards for best feature film, best actress, best cinematography, best music four awards.
The reason why it is so clear is because the American entertainment channel reported on the situation of the news, so on the last day of May 1980, when Zheng Jianguo said goodbye to Ye Zhenkai at the Boston airport, he also said a few special words: "Jin Ayan failed to win the Hundred Flowers Award, remember to write a letter to comfort others after going back." ”
"You guy—"
Ye Zhenkai's complexion suddenly changed slightly, and he subconsciously glanced at Cai Lilac next to him, the latter and Ye Jianyi and Qiao Yuzhen next to him couldn't help but glare at him in unison, staring at Ye Zhenkai and shrinking his neck, and snorted: "Which pot are you not opening and mentioning, people are winning the Golden Rooster Award, not the Audience Award-"
"Art comes from life, and it is the highest achievement of art that is both art and loved by people. ”
Hearing this sarcastic statement, Zheng Jianguo said with a smile, then looked at Zheng Fugui and Du Xiaomei, and said in a relaxed tone: "Dad, mother, remember to rest at home for two days after you go back and then go to work, I won't get on the plane to see you off." ”
"You have to take care of yourself here, you usually don't go out except for work, it's too messy here-"
After living in the United States for almost 20 days, Du Xiaomei remembered the car accident and the shooting, and of course, the explosives that were almost injured: "It's not ours, but you can't mess around-"
"Okay, mother!"
Zheng Jianguo looked at Du Xiaomei as if he was going to be sad, so he looked at Ye Jianyi next to him after speaking: "Uncle Ye, auntie, after you go back, let Zhenkai and Ding Xiang learn some English, I heard that the scores of English in this year's college entrance examination are included in the total score according to the 100-point system——"
"Zhenkai, Lilac, you two heard it, and you two have to learn English when you go back in the future. ”
Qiao Yuzhen's goose egg face showed joy and said, but Ye Jianyi raised his chin at Zheng Jianguo: "Jianguo, what you said is reasonable, but you should tell my father, now this guy's wings are stiff and I can't help my father-"
"Hehe, I said it on the teacher's side, and he told me that the college entrance examination is scored by actual scores. ”
Zheng Jianguo said a few words with a smile and then chatted a few more words, and then came to Fan Ping and Fan Ying, his eyes swept over Kou Bin's face first, and he stretched out his hand and said: "Brother Bin, I won't say much more about your words, my sister is much better than me——"
"Huh-"
With a smirk on his face, Kou Bin and Zheng Jianguo shook hands and said, "Those who know me, Jianguo also~"
"Look at your lameness. ”
Subconsciously opened her mouth to say something, Zheng Donghua instantly woke up and there were two elders next to Fan Ying and Fan Ping, so she quickly changed her words: "Our school is also about to be closed, and I plan to stay in China for a while after returning to China, don't worry, our father and mother." ”
"Well, that's for the best. ”
Zheng Jianguo nodded at Kou Yang and Luo Lan after answering, his eyes stopped on the faces of Fan Ying and Fan Ping, and said with a smile: "Two Aunt Fan, I didn't accompany you after you came-"
