Chapter 725 Tangled is very tangled
Faced with a very childish boss, Filson could only persuade him bitterly. William White may have many shortcomings, but there is one thing that he has always been very generous to his own people.
As for temper tantrums, this one is actually fine. After so many years with William White, there are really not many opportunities for him to lose his temper. Or rather, he is unlikely to let his subordinates see his gaffe.
"Filson, how much compensation needs to be paid for this layoff of IBM, have you calculated? ”
"At least six billion dollars, plus some other losses. In the more extreme case, it could be close to 10 billion. ”
"So many?" Hearing Filson's words, William White was also taken aback. Nima, the level of this loser, directly crushed the richest man into slag.
"Well, there will be a deficit of more than 10 billion for the whole year, there's no doubt about that. Boss, their stock price, in fact, still has room to fall. ”
"Then don't buy it all at once, I'm not a short-term investment anyway. Five years, I hope this money can be doubled in five years. ”
"Boss, I don't know much about the IT industry, and the patents in their hands are really so powerful. ”
"Ha, let's tell you that, from the CPU to the memory, from the floppy disk drive to the hard disk. Everything you see in a personal PC, their technology is the best.
Filson, I really don't know, how Compaq and Dale overtook in the corners, it's actually a miracle. ”
"yes, they originally named it an IBM compatible machine, but now I don't seem to say much about it, and I probably want to make something of my own. ”
"That's right, it's not appropriate to sell their shares now, it is estimated that there is still a lot of room for growth, IBM shares, let's buy the dip. The valuation below 30 billion is actually very cheap. ”
Seeing that he had persuaded the boss, Fillson also took his leave and left. The boss is bullish on IBM, yes, Compaq and Dell are also on the rise, and it is obviously not appropriate to sell now.
Wall Street was also a little dumbfounded by IBM's layoffs. As for the general population, it is even more bewildered. So, the brick family appeared in time.
"The excessively high welfare system has eroded the enterprising spirit of employees. What kind of country club is that, it's just extravagant. ”
Hahaha, looking at the frothing guy on the TV show, William White couldn't stop laughing.
Nima, it's just a country club, if it's all wrong, you can come to my company and see.
Sure enough, the audience in the audience was very unconvinced. Cut, what's wrong with employee benefits, the gap between them and the legendary world is not a star and a half at all. Your club is in the countryside, and the world of legends is in the city center.
Well, as long as it comes to the world of legends, the brick family's face will be dark. It's a tragedy when you compare yourself to a guy who makes money more than it drinks water.
When encountering such a problem, the brick family can only take care of him.
Nima, can you still have a pleasant chat? William White did this because there was too much money, and if he didn't spend it, he would have to take it out to pay taxes.
In William White's view, IBM was killed by the Department of Justice, which is beyond doubt.
Of course, if these are wrong, they are obviously not appropriate. If IBM is allowed to expand, it is difficult to say whether Apple will appear, and Microsoft will inevitably be stillborn. And that Compaq post-Dell, most likely it won't show up either.
The blue giant is engaged in internal circulation, what are you still messing with?
Critting IBM in the name of an IBM compatible machine is really joyful. If it weren't for the Ministry of Justice's containment, IBM wouldn't have found an opponent for itself.
As for Bill Gates, what do you think IBM's 300,000 people are? When it comes to programming and software, Microsoft will be in the spotlight.
"Boss, Mr. Lucas is here. ”
"Hey, how is this old guy free? "William White is curious, isn't this guy playing with Spielberg in a movie.
"George, what kind of wind is blowing you here? ”
Lucas was stunned, this is the way the country greets.
"Ahem, hurricanes in the Bahamas. ”
"Damn, can you still have a pleasant chat, wasn't that hurricane called George last time?"
"Cut, don't talk about that, why are there so few special effects in Mission Impossible, this doesn't suit your style. ”
"God, you don't know about the economic downturn, besides, some people have already said that I sell special effects. Where is this Nima going to reason, and the special effects company is not our family, how about Lucas, can you buy shares. ”
George Lucas's sweetheart, how could this old guy sell his shares. William White is clearly running on this goods.
"What, the recent movie is a toss-up, Spielberg is all made for free. How about sponsoring a little. ”
"Well, I'm also quite confused, the script is very good, let's put it this way, I don't plan to watch this movie, it will make me very uncomfortable. To be honest, that period of history is indeed too dark. ”
"Well, I can understand that Spielberg is a bit of a meltdown right now. You may not know it, but many directors have turned down the script. ”
"You mean Roman Polanski? If memory serves, he's Jewish. The movie won't be filmed in the United States, so what is he worried about? The FBI can't arrest him. ”
"Maybe it's not for that, maybe like you, you can't face this history. You know, he's still a survivor. ”
What the two are talking about is naturally Schindler's list. Sponsoring Shenma, Lucas is. Even if this movie loses money, investors won't care.
"George, why don't you let Paramount release it? No, Fox isn't good. You know, they're all their own people, and I don't think it's offensive when I say that, right?"
When it comes to these guys, William White is still very careful when it comes to his words. It's normal for him to be a little confused, the world is now the kind of footbasin man, and your wave of handling is really magical.
"I don't know, it's too complicated, I don't know. Maybe it's not profitable, so just find a publisher. ”
Although the old guy is talking nonsense, William White has no intention of getting to the bottom of it. Lei Shidong and Murdoch, if they also plan to take care of this, they will probably be regarded as traitors.
Lucas came, of course, to know about Mission Impossible's shooting plan. White Pictures has a spy movie about Mr. and Mrs. Smith in front of it, and of course no one doubts the quality of this mission: impossible.
"Lucas, I'm going to make a series. Now there's a problem, I can't possibly sign a contract for that long. Six years is the limit of three movies, how can you change it later, and directly write the protagonist to death?"
Lucas was also taken aback, he didn't expect that William White was actually thinking about what would happen six years later.
"It's okay to write about death, isn't that what my Star Wars is. Besides, that little fresh meat is popular with your hand. ”
William White waved his hand and signaled, "George, a favor is a favor, and a business is a business." Besides, those agents are not easy to deal with. ”
"If it doesn't work, let's change people, Brother Tom is now a super first-line movie star, of course it won't be so easy to communicate. ”
"Again, I'm thinking about it. You've seen the script, this movie is actually the American version of 007, and appearance is the key. ”
"Haha, I can't help you with this, if you shoot it yourself, I don't think there will be any problems. ”
William White gave this old guy a blank look, he was just playing with tickets, and what acting skills were there.
