Chapter 349: The circle of friends is online

The sun shines through the sea, and it doesn't feel cold at all, and if it feels dark, you can turn on the lights again. Ventilation ducts bring in fresh air even if there is a power outage, and the backup power built on the golf course is enough to keep it running for a week.

The houses that were built at a cost of more than 60 million dollars were considered by the designers who should have been considered and perfected, such as these rooms placed underground, designed to be able to see the landscape in the "fish tank", and the Gates family also adopted a similar design, and the scale of the fish tank is smaller than that of Sumu.

The pale blue waters shone in the sun, shimmering blue in the room, and oceanographers dived underwater, playing with and feeding two dolphins.

Many people at the scene sighed in their hearts, it was poverty that limited their imagination, before that, who would have thought that someone would make such a large "fish tank", just the artificial breeding of whale sharks is enough to surprise them, after this thing grows up, the length can reach twenty meters, compared with the two, what is the aquarium in the ordinary people's home?

Mr. Scully heard Ellison's question and hesitated for a moment and said, "There has been a slight decline in market share during this time, and the board of directors is waiting for a new product to be launched, and before the results are finally discussed, two directors are wavering. ”

"Procrastinating, the members of the board of directors of your company are too unruly, so I have always felt that it is better to have the right to speak in the hands of one person, otherwise it will be all trouble, the so-called directors are more conducive to the company's decision-making, it is absolutely nonsense, and a company should have only one voice!" Ellison shouted again with a big mouth.

The idea is similar to Su Mu, Su Mu also feels that the right to speak is too scattered, it is not good to be in a different angle, and the perspective of looking at the problem is also different, they are the boss of the company, of course, they want the right to speak to be held in their own hands.

Adding fuel and vinegar to the fire, he said to Mr. Scully, "One week, I will wait another week at most, and if I don't agree I will give up."

Penguin's market value has been rising, and now that the market environment is so good, Apple's stock price is falling, and even if I agree with this, the other shareholders of the company will not agree, and I am under a lot of pressure, I think you should know. ”

Shortly after Penguin's launch event, consumers were amazed by the new gaming computer, which brought about an increase in the image of the entire brand, and Apple had nothing but envy of it.

When Executive Scully heard this ultimatum, he sighed deeply: "Don't I want to merge? To be honest, no one in the company is more willing to merge than me, but those board members are still immersed in Apple's past glory, and many of them don't even understand personal computers, nor do they understand the development of related industrial chains. ”

This is none of Su Mu's business, even if the two companies merge, he will not let Apple's current bad corporate atmosphere affect the development of Penguin, at least until the drastic rectification is completed, the enthusiasm is slowly dissipating, if there is no Apple, he can also use his own funds for development, but it is a little more troublesome, the advantage is that it will not be dragged down, and the right to speak is in his own hands.

As soon as he finished speaking, Su Mu was surprised to find that his little baby, riding on the English bulldog, ran to the glass, and was looking up at the big fish in the fish tank, looking dazed, maybe because he didn't know what these were.

Walking with Lily, fearing that he would hurt something, he picked up the little one, and a dolphin swam over, staring at them with its mouth open and spitting bubbles......

The pressure exerted successfully worked, and the next morning from Mr. Scully's mouth, I learned the news of agreeing to the merger, according to the four or six shares, some small premises on the basis that Su Mu still has the right to speak in the company, he readily agreed, and the two sides reported the good news as soon as possible, resulting in a sharp rise in market value that day, followed by a temporary suspension of trading.

Apple has agreed to merge, and the next thing is much easier, the two sides sent employees to dock, Su Mu personally handled the rest of the work, in fact, he didn't need much help, Mr. Senna's team is very experienced in dealing with this kind of thing, the main thing is the problem of redividing the equity, the two companies merged into one, the workload is not small, the dismissal of the dismissal, and the high-level jobs also need to be transferred.

In Silicon Valley in July, the weather was already very hot, when Su Mu came to the company, he happened to meet a group of interns recruited from major universities, a few years ago, employees selected companies, some people felt that there was no future and left, now it is these employees, begging to come to his company to work, Harvard, MIT and other famous students graduated, and only the top handful can get internship opportunities.

The only fly in the ointment is that the company's office environment is a little poor, lacking the appearance of a large company, he was invited to say a few words, and then took the child to the Bee software development department, today is the day when the new feature of the "circle of friends" is listed.

About this function, before the design of a group of people discussed for a long time, some people support that only friends can see the information sent by others, and some people think that since the information is released, most of them hope that more people will see, to interact with themselves, insist on disclosing the content of the information, not just to their friends to see, discuss and discuss, and finally adopt the latter mode, and add a function, allowing users to decide whether to keep it private or public, or only to show friends, there is not much technical difficulty.

Before that, Bee's only function was to let people interact with other people's messages, today it is different, they can express what they want to express, through the circle of friends to let more people see, not only send text, pictures can also be sent, but if it is a picture with too much data, the transmission speed will be slower.

Silicon Valley people understand a truth, that is, standing still is equal to chronic suicide, because others will surpass themselves one by one, so it is necessary to keep updating, so that the product is more and more perfect, recently OO has carried out a major update, and began to provide online installation services, this function is Su Mu as a shareholder after a strong request, Gates found someone to add into the Microsoft operating system, originally mainly relied on floppy disks for installation, all of a sudden much more convenient.

Su Mu asked James, "Has anyone downloaded it?"

"Of course, there are only more than 4,000 people who have completed the program update, and lo and behold, I just posted a public message and someone left a message at the bottom......"
