Chapter 034: Research on the Other Side of the Ocean

The whole word is not advertised] Chapter O34 A Study of the Other Side of the Ocean

When Lei Jun was sent to the United States by Li Yan to start Taiji Software America, he was very excited for a while, knowing that Silicon Valley in the United States is a place that every computer practitioner yearns for, so when he came to Silicon Valley, successfully registered the company and recruited the first employee, he felt a great sense of accomplishment. When his classmates in China were still working for others, he was already the CEO of an American company, although the company was still just an empty shell, but this did not affect his own freedom.

Since he built the framework of the company, the parent company in Huaxia seemed to have forgotten him, and did not give him any instructions for the further development of the company, so after coming to the United States for more than a month, he was idle again, which made him a little depressed in addition to excitement, and the mood at this time was probably the same as a child who was put away by his parents but ignored him for a long time.

However, Lei Jun is an idle person after all, and when he does not get the company's next instructions, he does not want to live up to the trust and expectations of Li Yan and Qiu Bo Jun. With the deepening of his understanding of the American IT industry, his admiration for Li Yan is also increasing day by day, and this admiration has been transformed into a kind of worship later, because his current research and analysis results and the outlook on the United States and even the world's IT industry exhibition trends based on these results coincide with the company's exhibition strategy that Li Yan gave him at the beginning of his visit to the United States, and the company exhibition strategy formulated by Li Yan is more profound and forward-looking than the conclusions he has obtained based on his own analysis.

Originally, in his mind, his perception of his own small boss was still at the level of genius, but after two months, this small boss who was much younger than him had been put in the position of a strategist in his heart, and at the same time, he became more and more confident in the prospects of Taiji Software America.

In the nearly a year since he came to the United States, in addition to the investigation and analysis of the American IT industry, he actually only did three things, one was to expand the market channels for the Tai Chi desktop office system in the United States, contact the businessmen, and the second thing was to contact Li Nas, the author of the Linux "operation" system who was still studying at the University of Helsinki, according to Li Yan's instructions, and tried to be friends with him through technical "communication", and at the same time obtained a copy of the core source code of 1inux.

For a long time later, Lei Jun put his main "essence" on the study of the core code of 1inux, and soon became good friends with Li Nas in the Netherlands, and then proposed at an appropriate time that Taiji Software USA could support Li Nas's work of opening 1inux free of charge, and what Li Nas had to do was that if he wanted to find a job in a software company one day, he could give priority to Taiji Software USA, of course, this priority was not mandatory "sex" Yes, there is no contract or anything like that, and of course Linus is happy to accept such a pie-in-the-sky thing. There are no ads in the whole word

The third thing is that he is now going to the laboratory under construction, just a few days ago, a guy who claimed to be a friend of Li Yan came to Taiji Software America to find Lei Jun, if it weren't for the fact that Lei Jun had received an email from Li Yan before, he would definitely regard this guy who asked him to take out a million dollars to help him build a laboratory for the first time as a madman, and when he fed back this information to Li Yan who was far away in China, Li Yan told him that one million dollars is not much, because in the near future, this guy's research results will bring ten times or even a hundred times more than one million dollars to the company。

And now he is on the way to the laboratory, because he is very curious about what Li Yan said that the laboratory that can bring huge income to the company is going to study, so in the past few days, in addition to being busy arranging Tai Chi Software American conference, he has to come to the laboratory almost every day to have a look, although this laboratory is still a long time before it is completed.

When he came to the laboratory, several construction workers were busy installing some equipment in the laboratory, and Smith was lying on a laboratory bench that had been installed, busy with all his attention, a palm-sized circuit board was connected to a computer, and some information and data kept flowing on the computer screen like flowing water, and Smith, who had completely entered the working state, did not notice the arrival of Lei Jun at all.

Lei Jun didn't bother Smith's research, but stood behind him and watched him keep busy, through the contact of the past few days, he has already realized that this guy who doesn't look good is completely a genius, a genius who is "fine" to the point of almost demonic in both software and hardware, and the "operation" system on the computer is not any kind of "operation" system that is currently popular in the world, he knew a few days ago that this "operation" system was opened by Smith himself, and it also has a cool name: ghost.

"Yay!" Smith jumped for joy.

"Smith, it seems that your research will have preliminary results before the lab is built. Lei Jun said with a smile.

"Ray, when are you here. Smith only saw Lei Jun standing behind him at this time, and said with a somewhat embarrassed smile.

"I've been here for a short time, if you don't mind, can you tell me about your research?" said Lei Jun with a smile.

"Of course, you see, if I can burn the ghost on this chip, then we can put the computer in our pockets, Ray, isn't that cool. Smith said, pointing to the palm-sized board.

"Are you talking about laptops that can fit in your pocket?" Lei Jun asked with interest, if the laptop can be made the size of a palm, the market prospect is still good, because several popular laptops on the market are very bulky.

"No, no, I think you misunderstood, the main function of this handheld device I'm going to do is communication, that is to say, it's a mobile phone with computer capabilities, by the way, Magic Lee calls it a smartphone. Smith shook his head.

"A mobile phone with computer functions?" Lei Jun chewed this sentence carefully, he still couldn't see how much market value this thing had, and he couldn't blame him, because now the second-generation mobile communication technology has just begun trial operation in the United States, that is to say, the mobile communication technology in the United States is still dominated by the first generation of analog signals.

"Ray, with this smartphone, we can let users save their phone numbers to their phones, and we can also let users save their schedules to their phones, so that they can throw away the phone number books and notebooks in their pockets, isn't that a cool thing, if we can prescribe enough programs for users to use, we can completely turn it into a handheld computer with phone functions." Smith continued.

"Smith, these ideas of yours are really cool, I think if we can produce such a product, users will definitely be willing to buy it, are these all your ideas?" Lei Jun also began to be interested in the smartphone or handheld computer with phone function described by Smith.

"No, these are Magic Lee's ideas, I just need to turn those ideas into reality. Smith said, waving his hand.

"Alright Smith, I think you've managed to pique my interest, and I'd suggest we find a restaurant to eat and talk to, because I'm hungry. Lei Jun patted Smith on the shoulder and said with a smile.

"Okay, let's find a restaurant to eat and talk to, preferably a restaurant. Smith looked at his watch, it was already time to eat, so he packed up the equipment in the laboratory and went out to eat with Lei Jun.

…………

"What, they refused?" While Lei Jun and Smith were looking for a restaurant to eat, Robert and his assistant were reporting the results of their acquisition negotiations with Taiji Software to their supervisor, Microsoft's boss in charge of office software market operations, and the vice president of Microsoft's office department.

"Yes, they refused. Robert replied.

"Isn't $30 million too little, I think they're crazy. The vice president said with a look of surprise.

"These Chinese people are very cunning, and I think they may have rejected our acquisition plan to buy their products at a higher price. Robert replied.

"Cunning Huaxia, Robert, I will report this matter to the company, no matter what the result is, I have worked hard for you this time. The vice president said with a wave of his hand.

Robert secretly breathed a sigh of relief, cautiously exited the president's office with his assistant, and after they left, the vice president picked up the phone and dialed a number: "Mr. Bill, I regret to report to you something......

…………

On Monday, Li Yan finally realized the distress of being a celebrity, because when he went to the restaurant to eat too early, he seemed to have transformed into a giant panda, and when he was eating, there were even three "female" students who appeared in front of him, stared at him for a while, and then took out pens and notebooks with red faces, and asked him to sign autographs, while the boys' gazes at Li Yan were much more complicated, especially when there were several "females" who were quite beautiful After he was asked to sign his name, the boys' eyes were full of all kinds of envy, jealousy and hatred.

"Li Yan, it's a good taste to be a celebrity. Yesterday's beautiful "female" host sat opposite Li Yan and said with a smile.

"No, I feel like I've become a giant panda, and there are people watching everywhere I go. Li Yan shook his head and said.

Giggled, Hu Linlin was amused by Li Yan's words, and the "flower" branches trembled, making the saliva of some of the boys looking this way around.

"Mistakes, as the saying goes, people are afraid of being famous, pigs are afraid of being strong, it seems that being famous is really not a thing to enjoy. After coming out of the restaurant, in order not to be recognized, he brought the hat on his down jacket to his head to cover his face, and walked forward with his head down.

"You're Li Yan?" asked a pair of white Adidas sneakers blocking his way, his tone full of disdain.

"Who are you?" Li Yan raised his head and looked at the guy blocking his way, I have to say that this guy is very handsome, and he is about the same as him, and he also looks about 1.8 meters.

"I heard that you were very hung yesterday, do you dare to talk to me in the '' field?" said the handsome guy with a look of disdain, and at the same time reached out to pat Li Yan's shoulder.

"I don't know you at all, why should I go to the '' field with you, please let me, I want to go upstairs. Li Yan stretched out his hand to block the handsome man's hand and patted him on the shoulder and said.

"Hehe, it's really hanging, do you know who I am?" asked the handsome guy.

"Why do I want to know who you are, do you have anything to do with me?" Li Yan rolled his eyes, feeling that the guy in front of him was a little brainless, so he asked impatiently.

"You are the first person who dares to talk to me Li Bin like this, in fact, it is nothing, I just think that you are not pleasing to the eye, I want to teach you a lesson, by the way, I warn you, stay away from Hu Linlin in the future, she is not worthy of you. Li Bin said with a flash of sharpness in his eyes.

"Hu Linlin, what do I have to do with her" Li Yan chewed on the name, and in front of her feelings, Hu Linlin's flower protector messenger came to find trouble for herself.
