After a week, the Los Angeles Electronic Technology Show came to an end. The staff of Heiyun Group is constantly counting the data, and with more and more sales outlets around the world, the effect of the exhibition is no longer very obvious. Best Buy, which Bao Zixuan co-opened with Phil Hawkins, Diana Rockefeller and others, has entered a period of rapid expansion, with new stores opening every month. Except for special new products that need to be released globally, otherwise they can be sold directly on the shelves.

Heiyun Auto's electronic convenience store allows customers to buy some electronic products in addition to car maintenance. In addition, there are many sales channels such as major supermarkets and electronic wholesale markets, the most important of which is the black cloud experience store, which is currently only built in megacities in the world. It can be said that Bao Zixuan is changing the sales channels of electronic products, and it is completely sufficient before e-commerce comes out.

The purpose of the exhibition is more to get some small dealers to sign contracts, but this time there are some exceptions because of the appearance of the Black Cloud GY1 computer. As a result, many scientific research institutions around the world have come to the Black Cloud Pavilion to understand the performance of computers for the first time. Only IBM's large-scale industrial computers on the market can meet the needs of scientific research, but the U.S. Department of Commerce insists on hoping that IBM will give up some market share. Give other computer manufacturers some opportunities, look fair, so that everyone can develop.

However, no company can dare to make a big gamble of $5 billion in the 60s like IBM, and it is difficult to achieve good results without sufficient investment in scientific research. Heiyun is able to overtake in corners because of the previous reference and Bao Zixuan's familiarity with the operating principle of industrial computers and the understanding of the development direction of industrial computers in the future.

After the exhibition, a press conference was held as usual, and the rostrum, there were still familiar faces. Rodel, president of the Los Angeles Electronic Technology Show, Robert Calvin, president of Motorola, Akio Morita of Sony, and representative of IBM, Bao Zixuan, of course, were among them.

However, Siemens, which has been selling very well before, has fallen behind, and this time the plan to mainly use mobile phones to drive sales has completely failed, and the product is too far from the expected value. So that the home appliances and other products that have their own leading technological advantages are not promoted, which is the fundamental reason for being squeezed out by IBM.

IBM was on the list because of the efforts made in the next few days, and the stunning appearance of the Black Cloud gy1 computer made the U.S. Department of Commerce inform the U.S. Department of Commerce in the middle of the exhibition that it would temporarily cancel its anti-monopoly investigation, which is also the benefit of spending money in place.

Orders that have been afraid to receive before have poured in, and some scientific research institutions in the United States. The kind of thing that involves national security will still choose IBM, which is also a matter of no choice. Previously, they had ordered a batch of industrial computers from small companies because of anti-monopoly investigations, but the performance could not keep up with the times, and now the Ministry of Commerce has lifted the ban on IBM, so that they can come and place orders as soon as possible.

In fact, these scientific research institutions can only be regarded as second-rate in the United States, and if defense industry giants such as Lockheed, Boeing, and Raytheon do not even dare to interfere in their dealings with IBM, then the US military will certainly come forward and even be able to arrest the commercial department as a spy.

Thomas Watson Jr., who was sitting on the podium at this time, was in high spirits to announce to the world that once the shackles were removed, no enterprise could be an opponent of IBM, at least in the field of computers. Bao Zixuan is also the first time to see this legendary figure, and he is a living legend for those who were able to spend $5 billion on scientific research in the 60s.

Going back more than a decade, the United States spent about $2 billion on the development of the atomic bomb, although it is not the same. However, it is also a worthy opponent to be respected.

Rodell stood up and said: "It's nice to have completed our mission again, to be honest every time the show is not well rested. For security, sales, service, etc., it can be said that everyone can negotiate business and sign contracts in a comfortable and safe environment. I am glad that everyone on the team is dedicated and the exhibitors are fully cooperative. Only then is the Los Angeles Electronic Technology Exhibition getting better and better, more and more customers come to visit, and our influence is gradually increasing. ”

"A lot of people say that the Electronica Los Angeles is a place where miracles happen, and many of the companies are known here and sell their products all over the world. ”

"It's the same this time, and sitting next to me are the four companies that have sold the most at the Electronics & Technology Show in Los Angeles. The sales figures will be released in the future, this time so that they can meet with everyone. Let's talk about the development of the company in the future and what kind of products will be launched. ”

At this time, several people all looked at Thomas Watson Jr., after all, he was the first person to speak on behalf of the exhibitors in terms of age and status.

Thomas Watson Jr. said into the microphone: "Thank you all for letting me say a few words first, I haven't been in public for a long time in the past few years. The main thing is that people are old and lack energy. The people sitting next to me are all outstanding entrepreneurs in the world, but I didn't expect them to be so young, especially Mr. Bao of Heiyun Group, I think he is about the same age as my granddaughter. ”

"At this age, he has created a huge family business, and earning a huge fortune is really a hero. I took a look at their industrial computers, and although many things borrowed from some IBM design concepts, there were many new ideas. It's rare that you don't copy it like other businesses. However, IBM has never been afraid of any challenge from any competitor, especially in the field of computers, and as the first company in the world to launch a commercial computer, we have faced many challenges before, but all competitors have been left behind. No business is a threat to the mighty IBM, and our goal is to change the way the world is worked. ”

"In the next five years, IBM will invest $3 billion in scientific research, mainly for the upgrading of large-scale industrial computers and the application of home computer performance. More than 1,000 top engineers around the world will be recruited to work on new algorithms and revolutionize computers. At the same time, I also hope that the world's major scientific research institutions can contact IBM, and we will jointly develop products that you think are feasible, in short, IBM will move forward in all fields related to electronic technology products. ”

"In the future society, people will be inseparable from electronic technology products, and IBM, as one of the world's greatest electronic technology product production companies, will never miss this feast, let alone waste this opportunity in my hands. ”

"For example, my family is now using black cloud phones, and he is doing a good job. But in my opinion, it can do better, IBM has the strength to develop better products to serve the world, which is what everyone wants to see!"

Thomas Watson Jr. didn't say much, but a big man of his level would certainly do what he said. Bao Zixuan knew that he had angered the blue giant, and the two sides would definitely compete in various markets next. His words still excited the reporters, researchers, and university leaders below. Now looking at the posture, IBM and Heiyun will definitely fight in the future, which will give them scientific research funding and at the same time solve the employment problem. Immortals may suffer from fights, but the competition between the two companies and the world's major scientific research institutions will benefit more or less.

IBM's computer heritage and technical reserves are much stronger than those of other enterprises, and the black cloud is not comparable with it. However, Bao Zixuan knew that if the Black Cloud Group wanted to climb a higher mountain, it would definitely compete with many big companies, and it would not have any allies of its own. He can only go on his own, and he will face a trend of declining corporate efficiency in the next period of time, and he is pleased that the investment in other fields can make up for Heiyun's huge investment in scientific research.
