John doesn't need to do it himself, he just needs to raise the money, Chris Gardner will take the secretly recruited traders to carry out the specific steps, and finally when the time comes, he will go to the UK himself and pick the pearl.

Besides, since he told Ariana about shorting the pound, this little money fan volunteered to be an overseer, so he doesn't have to worry about this matter at all now, not because he is at ease with Ariana, but because he believes that the old Rockefeller will definitely help from the side, although the Rockefeller family is not an opponent of the Morgan family in the financial field, but there are great gods in the Chase Bank under their name, so there is no need to worry at all.

What's more, there is still an important thing waiting for him to do, whether Morgan Bank can open ordinary business or not depends on the subsequent arrangement, so after arranging this side of the matter, he took Dani to the IBM headquarters in Amunch City.

Amonke is actually just a small town in North Town, Westchester County, New York, with a population of just over 2,000 people, and it is more like a small village in terms of population, but this small village is the headquarters of IBM, MBIA, SWISS RE USA.

There is a very interesting phenomenon in the United States, many world-famous companies are not headquartered in New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, San Francisco, but in some unknown small towns, such as Wal-Mart is headquartered in Bentonville, Procter & Gamble is headquartered in Cincinnati, Apple is headquartered in Cupertino, Microsoft is headquartered in Redmond, and Motorola is headquartered in Schaumburg.

The reason why these companies set up their headquarters in small towns is not because of the good air and beautiful environment in the town, but because of the policy. In the U.S. government, it is generally rare to support enterprises, so most enterprises tend to choose remote areas with less taxes, loose policies and cheap land when choosing the address of the company's headquarters, so as to abandon those metropolises with high taxes, tight policies and expensive land. So there is such an interesting phenomenon.

The city of Armonk, where IBM is located, is small, and John took Dani to IBM's headquarters not long after getting off the plane.

President John Eks and several high-level executives greeted John at the foot of the office building.

"Boss! Welcome to IBM, it's been a hard journey. ”

John Ex saw John's car come to a stop and opened the door.

John got out of the car, and several other high-level administrators hurriedly bent down to greet him.

After John looked at the crowd and nodded slightly, he asked John Ex to take him directly to the office.

Along the way, John Ex led John with a smile on his face, but his heart was not at ease for a moment, since receiving a call from Dani and knowing that John was coming, he had been in extreme tension and worry.

But this is also normal, the company under management has lost tens of billions of dollars for three consecutive years, and now the boss is here, and everyone has to be nervous and worried at this time.

However, John didn't know that IBM was losing money, and the Morgan family had to go to many companies, large and small, adding up to hundreds or thousands, and he was not the old Morgan who read reports every day, so he naturally didn't know that IBM had lost tens of billions of dollars.

Entering the office, John sat in the place where John Ex usually sits, and Dani and KA stood aside. "Except for President John Eckes, everyone else should go to work! John commanded with a smile as he looked at the crowd in the office.

When everyone heard his words, they hurriedly bent down to say goodbye and left the office without looking back, and John Ex on the side saw that the people in the office were leaving one by one and only himself, and his heart became even more nervous, if he hadn't been in a high position for a long time, he was afraid that he would have been unable to hold back.

"President Ex, sit down!" John pressed his hand to sit down with John Ex.

John was a little nervous when he saw John Ex, but he didn't think much about it, his subordinates usually saw him more or less like this, and he was used to it.

"Thank you, boss!"

John Ex carefully pulled out his chair and sat down, his eyes looking at John, but his hands were nervously on his lap and pinching each other, waiting for a storm to come.

However, the storm did not come, but the wind and the sun came.

"President Ex: I came to IBM this time because I need you to do something. John smiled.

"Ahh

John Eck was stunned for a while, thinking that John had come to IBM to clean up his own this time, but it wasn't.

"Boss, if you have anything to do, I'll do it. John Ex hurriedly got up and agreed, and the luck of successfully escaping the catastrophe made him not think about what John had asked him to do.

John pressed his hand and motioned for John Ex to sit down, and then he told him what he was going to do. "Yes, I need IBM to help me make a banking system to help banks solve problems such as online remittance and inter-bank withdrawal. ”

John Ex didn't dare to talk nonsense after hearing this, he is a professional manager who doesn't know much about technical things, but he knows that professional matters should be handed over to professional people to solve.

"Boss! I called the technicians and you told them what you wanted, and I guess it shouldn't be too difficult to make this system. ”

John Exex is confident in saying this, because IBM has never been short of talent.

"Yes. John thought about it and nodded, John Ex is a professional manager, and it is indeed a bit difficult to talk to him about technology.

"Which is the company's R&D system and software lab?" John asked suddenly.

IBM has nine laboratories around the world, each of which studies something different, some specialize in hardware and software, some specialize in data and networks, some specialize in nano and quantum, and some specialize in physics and chemistry.

It can be said that the reason why IBM has been able to innovate in technology is due to the credit of these laboratories.

"The laboratory where systems and software are studied is the Thomas Watson Research Center. ”

John Ekes naturally knows about the research projects of his laboratory, although he is a professional manager, he knows that these laboratories are treasures to IBM, so even if the company has been losing money over the years, he has never reduced the research and development expenses of the laboratory.

"Well, let's go to the Thomas Watson Research Center. ”

The Thomas Watson Research Center is in New York, not too far from IBM's headquarters, so John decided to go over and have a good chat with the researchers.

"Okay, so I'll make a call?" John Ex asked, looking at John.

"Yes. ”

John nodded.
