Chapter 314: Planning

In the afternoon, Henry came to Apple and saw Jobs at first sight. JOBS WORE AN ARMANI BLACK TOP, LEVIS DARK BLUE JEANS, AND NEW BALANCE SNEAKERS, WHILE THE PEOPLE AROUND HIM WERE ALL SUITS AND LEATHER SHOES! And this can be seen from the side that Jobs is unusual. If you have to worry about what to eat or what to wear every day, then you will be less productive at work!

Henry has never been particular about clothes, and it's okay to wear them comfortably. However, he has a special designer who designs clothes for him, and he never thinks about what kind of clothes he wants to wear anyway.

"Hello, Mr. Jobs!" said Henry, smiling heartily and greeting him.

"Hello, Mr. Williams!" Jobs looked at Henry, and vaguely felt a powerful aura enveloping him, self-confidence, majesty, domineering, and seemed to have all of them.

After Henry greeted several high-level executives around him, he took the lead in leading everyone into the company.

After arriving at the office, after everyone was seated, Henry looked at Jobs, smiled and asked, "Mr. Jobs, what do you think of the MacBook and iMac I designed?"

"A masterpiece!!" Jobs praised without hesitation, "is simply the best design of the century, perfect!"

"Hehe......" Henry chuckled lightly and said lightly, "It's okay!" said Xin, if I designed the iPhone, IPAD, and Apple version of the iPod. You still can't throw yourself to the ground?

Henry looked at Jobs, and then glanced at the Apple executives around him. "These two products, although they have good ideas. But I don't want Apple products to become martyrs because they are doing too badly!"

"Apple's products stand for quality!"

"Apple's products represent fashion trends!"

"Therefore, in Chinese terms, it is 'not a hit, but a blockbuster'! That is to say, if we don't do it, if we do, we have to make a work that can shock the world!!

Bang Bang Bang !!

As soon as Henry finished speaking, everyone immediately applauded.

Jobs' eyes flashed with excitement. Excited, what Henry said was so much to his liking, and that was what he was going to do!

Henry then chatted with them for a while about the company's future development. Twenty minutes later, Henry was ready to leave Apple. As he left, Henry patted Jobs on the shoulder and said earnestly: "I have never missed anyone, I hope you don't disappoint me!"

Jobs nodded heavily, one on top. The genius who valued both authority and wisdom trusted him so much, and Jobs immediately felt that he was greatly inspired, and his whole person was suddenly refreshed and full of confidence!

Ten years ago. Jobs was young and frivolous, and he couldn't live anywhere;

Ten years later, Jobs experienced setbacks. Become mature.

It took ten years for Jobs to break out of the cocoon and be reborn. Henry could not have hired him as Apple's CEO now! Moreover, at a time when Steve Jobs needed the most trust when he returned to Apple. Henry gave him trust, which undoubtedly made him feel a kind of dead heart, and the death of a confidant!

Henry then went to Williams Electronics and then transferred the iPod division to Apple.

Now, Henry is ready to make a big push into the computer industry, and the importance of graphics cards cannot be overstated. In fact, Henry currently has a graphics card company, called 3dfx, founded in 1994, which is a 3D graphics card production and manufacturing company jointly created by Silicon Map Company, DEC, MIPS Company under ARM Company and other companies, and Henry's holding of this company has reached more than 65%.

At first, Henry was surprised when he saw that Silicon Map was going to create 3DFX. Because Henry in memory has remembered what kind of company 3DFX is. 3dfx launched its first graphics card called Voodoo, and it quickly dominated the 3d graphics card industry. Next, the Voodoo2 graphics card was launched, and once the graphics card was released, it had reached the point of being lonely and seeking defeat, basically monopolizing the entire 3d graphics card market!

The majesty of 3DFX is unparalleled for a while!!

However, 3dfx was later mispositioned and spent a lot of money to acquire graphics card production factories, which reduced the intensity of research and development, and was then surpassed by later pursuers, and was finally acquired by NVIDIA graphics card company.

However, with Henry in this world, it is necessary to swap the acquisition objects!

Founded in 1993, NVIDIA is a graphics card company specializing in the design of intelligent core chipsets and fabless IC semiconductors. Because there is only a design department, the expenditure is not large, and the funds are used for the design of chips, so the development speed of NVIDIA is very fast.

Computers need graphics cards, game consoles need graphics cards, and mobile phones will need graphics cards in the future...... Therefore, in order to reduce the number of competitors and obtain the technology of the other party, 3DFX is also going to the road of acquisition, one way to the black!

However, before that, Henry decided to get back the shares of 3dfx from DEC in the United States. Not only that, but Henry was also ready to take over DEC directly.

With about 130,000 employees and a market capitalization of more than $10 billion, DEC is the largest computer manufacturing company in the United States after IBM, and they also have excellent research/development departments and large production plants. However, from '91 to '94, DEC's losses exceeded $4 billion! In order to cover the large deficit, the CEO of the company planned to sell off all the other parts of DEC that could be divided. So, the global sale kicked off!

However, this time the big sale was all taken over by Henry!

Williams Electronics acquired DEC's storage division for hard disk drives for $400 million, and Williams Networks acquired the database software R&D division for $100 million.

However, what Henry values most about DEC is their Alpha processor, which is a very good computer chip processor, and the fastest of the RISC processors, which can eclipse Intel's fastest x86 processors!!

However, due to the wrong DEC development strategy, the product was not successfully promoted!

Later, Intel used a large number of patents for the Alpha processor in the Pentium, Pentium Pro and Pentium II processors. However, at this time, DEC was seriously ill, and in the face of the wealthy Intel, it could only take the money and agree to settle out of court......

But, the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse.

After the end of DEC, the talented engineers who went out of the Alpha Architecture Processor Division made AMD!

AMD has always been the second in 10,000 years, compared with Intel, there is a gap, but when AMD received several engineers from the DEC company's Alpha architecture, it immediately turned into a phoenix, and successively launched k7 and k8 processors, which directly counterattacked Intel and successfully staged a **~~ silk counterattack on the grand feat of being rich and handsome!

AMD has risen from nowhere, and Intel no longer dares to despise it!

Henry has already bought ARM and MIPS to complete the layout of mobile processors, but on the PC side, he still lacks a powerful weapon against Intel. Now, the target has emerged, and that is DEC's Alpha Architecture processor!

In 1995, Compaq would formally launch an acquisition of DEC, and Henry could not wait any longer......
