The development of relatively mature personal computers is easier said than done.

Putting aside the difficulty of researching memory, motherboards and other components, the software alone has already given Han Chudong a lot of headaches.

Originally, from Otto's operating system, although some advanced functions can be seen, but the programming language used to write the system is very niche, throughout the industry, few manufacturers are in use, and the entire computer language field presents a variety of competing situations, and there is no unified standard.

Many so-called personal computers are simply electronic calculators with their own screens, and the industry is still in its infancy, and it is a mess.

After several days of collection and research, Han Chudong finally saw a ray of light from the clues, he learned from a scientific journal that Bell Labs had drummed up the C language, and developed an operating system called "UNIX" based on the C language, with processor and process management module, storage management module, device management module, file system and user interface and other functions.

This made Han Chudong very pleasantly surprised, and after pondering, he felt that if this original operating system was combined with the Otto system he got from Xerox, he should be able to develop a more practical and advanced new operating system in the short term.

However, trouble has followed, and there are now too few experts who can speak C, and almost all of them are concentrated in Bell Labs, which means that if you want to develop your own operating system, you must bring people to Bell Labs to learn, or directly cooperate with this old laboratory.

The operating system is just one of the many troubles, in addition to the need to consider why to produce personal computers, how to sell it to consumers, Han Chudong's original intention to create this product is to make money, if no one buys it in the end, the result will only be the same as Otto computers, even if it is given to others for free, others will dislike to occupy space.

was so busy all day that he couldn't see the shadow, and even Assistant Arthur didn't know what Han Chudong was busy with, only that he wanted to study the so-called personal computer, and what made him wonder was that the little boss clearly cut the personal computer project of Intel some time ago.

In Arthur's eyes, Intel's personal computer and his boss's busy personal computer are completely the same thing, and he always feels that he has started to do his job again.

However, what can be done, Han Chudong is his boss, so he has to seize the opportunity to complete other tasks first, and push the rest of the things as much as he can, whatever Han Chudong can do.

Time flies, spring goes to summer.

In Los Angeles in early June, the weather was already very hot, and on the 8th, Boeing came with news that the Boeing 747 had been completely modified and passed the test flight test.

After a two-month delay, an additional $1 million was spent on renovating the basement and building six small bedrooms for guests or bodyguards, while the plane was flying from London, England to Los Angeles, with only a few flight attendants, pilots, and third-party security inspectors in the air for the final test.

The reason why he went to London was because Han Chudong bought all the collections of a small nobleman through a middleman, totaling more than 900 pieces, and asked the plane to help him bring things back by the way.

Considering that the ancestor of the little nobleman was actually the German Alfred 64 von 64 Wadsey who was elected as the marshal of the Invasion of China, Han Chudong was extremely looking forward to this batch of collections that he bought for more than three million US dollars, and naturally he would not care about the fuel cost of the plane.

It is worth mentioning that after the third round of financing of Mason Trust Fund, it invested in Boeing, and the current Boeing shares held by it have accounted for 2% of the total market value.

Therefore, the plan for the fourth round of fund-raising is in preparation, and it is expected to raise $200 million at one time, taking advantage of the fact that the stock market is still at a low level, and seize the time to complete more layouts.

In fact, compared to the cyclical fluctuations of the stock market, Han Chudong cares more about these companies themselves, a good company can completely ignore the current economic environment, such as Wal-Mart, KFC, which are developing rapidly, buy early and make money early, last year's upward momentum in the securities trading market was dragged down, and in the first half of this year, the investors of Mason Trust were crazy with happiness, otherwise he would not have the confidence to raise 200 million funds at once.

As for Han Chudong, among businessmen, he managed to rank first and won the title of the richest man in the world, mainly because of the fall in crude oil prices, which caused the old Getty to fall in value.

As expected, I saw the news in the newspaper in April, and I was happy for two days and disappeared, but recently the invitations to him to events and parties have increased suddenly.

June 8, 1975, 12 o'clock in the afternoon.

Han Chudong dozed off, lying in the penthouse of the office building located in the city, yesterday just sent away the inspection team of the city hall fire brigade, today began to arrange the relocation work, the original office building is ready to sublease to the outside world, it is really not possible to pay some liquidated damages, and the rest is handed over to the office management department to worry about, anyway, there is not much money, it is a trivial matter.

Holding Kiko Mochizuki in his arms, he didn't make much other moves, and asked her at this moment: "My plane will arrive at about three o'clock in the afternoon, let's pack up at about two o'clock, accompany me to France, first to Paris, then to Cannes, and then stay in the winery for a few days, as a summer vacation." ”

Habit becomes nature.

Some big things that are very bullish in the eyes of others have become sparse and ordinary small things in his eyes.

For example, in the simulated roadshow session, the valuation of Baofeng Electric has climbed to nearly 200 million US dollars, and Rainbow Beauty, which contributed 150 million US dollars in pre-tax income in the first half of the year, which is quite normal in Han Chudong's opinion, although he is also happy, but there is not much surprise.

It can't be said that he has completely lost interest in making money, but it can only be said that when money has completely become a string of numbers in the account, a little more, a little less, will not make him care too much.

Recently, I have paid more attention to life, arranged a full set of physical examinations for myself and my family, and also took time to go out for morning jogging and swimming, and asked other interesting businessmen to play golf and tennis when I had nothing to do, and even went to Las Vegas last month to contribute more than 600,000 US dollars.

Spending money to have fun, he is ready to go often, and some businessmen have offered to build a casino hotel with him, which will be copied directly to Las Vegas in the style of the White House.

Han Chudong didn't agree in the end, because he heard that the businessman was unreliable and the money in his hand was not enough, if he really wanted to invest, he could eat a casino hotel by himself, and there was no need to partner with anyone......
