Wang An took a sip of tea, asked a few words concisely, and roughly understood what Peterson meant.

"Can I take the rest of the company's executives on an industry visit to China?" asked Wang An, who was most concerned about his questions.

Peterson was stunned for a moment, then immediately knew what the other party was thinking.

"Of course – that would have been the last minute to talk about. But since Mr. Wang is particularly concerned about this, I can answer you in advance. ”

"I will decide the candidates for the senior management who can be interviewed, and the Chinese side has nothing to ask for, right?" Wang An finally confirmed with a little nervousness.

"Of course, it's your own business, and no one will interfere, as long as you make sure you do," Peterson affirmed. ”

Since the other party promised to "determine the candidates for the visiting delegation from the industrial circles", there is no need for Wang An to state the specific arrangements at the dinner table.

He wasn't asking Peterson for advice.

He only finally asked about the specific issues that Gu Biao invited him to talk about, which leaders he would meet, and what precautions he would pay attention to.

Then I readily agreed.

Peterson also pretended not to know more:

"Well, it's a pleasure to work with. Mr. Wang, please step up your preparations, and I hope you can rush to China before April 15th, and don't make your guests wait for a long time. ”

"Don't worry. ”

At a feast, the guests and hosts dispersed happily.

……

After returning to the company, Wang An immediately called his son over.

"Dad, what are you looking for me?" Wang Lie soon came to his father's office, his posture was very diligent, and his expression was very humble.

Wang Lie is a person who still knows a lot about the company's products, and he understands a little bit of the technical principles, but he is too passionless to do things.

Engaging in technology, just a board and a glance, understand, but no creativity, and do not know how to dispatch resources for the development of new products.

Engage in management and market ...... It is more "steady", and it is typical to live under the aura of the Father.

To put it bluntly, he is a good hand who follows the rules and "governs by inaction". If it is in an industry where there is no disruptive technology to renew it, such a person may be able to keep his ancestral business well.

Knowing his son Mo Ruo's father, Wang An's heart knows these advantages and disadvantages of his son.

But the son of leprosy is so good that even Sima Yan will continue to make Sima Zhen the prince after reading Sima Xin's superficial answer sheet (although Sima Zhen's seemingly shallow answer sheet was still cheated by his wife Jia Nanfeng in T prison).

In terms of the struggle with human nature, Wang An is at least stronger than Sima Yan, so it is not a shameful thing - Wang An has no choice, he is such a son. And Sima Yan has ten sons who have lived longer than him, and he still insists on establishing the eldest son of the mentally handicapped as the crown prince.

Wang An drove the distracting thoughts out of his mind, then coughed lightly in pain, and commanded in a commanding tone:

"I'm going to China in a few days to attend some strategic seminars on industry development, and I'm going to be received by the top management – you can get ready and come with me.

You have to seize this opportunity, not to express yourself, but at least to establish your own public image, so that everyone in the company knows that you are also a person who has seen the world.

Don't say that your Uncle Cunningham has always looked down on you, and you know exactly what CMO Chambers is at. I really don't want to see a day when I have to clean up the veterans and backbones in order for you to take over. ”

Wang An is on Wang An's computer, just like Zhu Yuanzhang's forces. Of course, Zhu Yuanzhang can clear up the threat of handover power for Zhu Biao or Zhu Yunwen. But after the cleanup, the combat effectiveness of the dynasty will also decline, and Wang An knows this very well in his heart.

can make his son more prestigious, and in the future, a few people will leave because of dissatisfaction.

"Okay, I'll go get ready. Wang Lie never dared to disobey his father, and immediately prepared to make up for the conversation overnight, striving for what kind of strategic seminar he really had in the future, even if the prestige of talking on paper came out.

The Industrial Strategy Seminar is not a real combat test. If you talk well on paper, and the big guy says that you are awesome, you will be awesome.

At least until there is a chance to be tested in the future, it is too much for the time being.

Historically, Wang An went to China in October 86 and received a very high standard of reception. After coming back, he passed the position to his son in November, and the difference between the front and back feet was only half a month.

Obviously, Wang An himself planned to make this decision while the iron was hot when his prestige was at its highest.

However, a group of people led by co-founder Kaningham and CMO John Chambers still left Wang An Computer angrily and were unwilling to accept Wang Lie's management.

Kaningham is already old, after all, he is Wang An's contemporary, and after leaving, he retired after a few years of hanging out with his peers.

John Chambers is only in his early 40s, and after leaving Wang An, he spent two years in history, and was favored by Modric, the founder of Cisco, a newly emerging American company in the field of wireless communications and automatic switches, and promised to make him his successor.

When Chambers joined, Cisco's market value was only $70 million, and it was completely a younger brother who was pressed and beaten by Motorola - after all, Cisco was founded in 1984, and after Motorola had invented the mobile phone, it found that the mobile phone base station industry was promising, and it had just followed the trend and was established, so it was normal to be weak in the early days.

However, Chambers relied on his own strength to find the second spring of his career at Cisco, and after five or six years of struggle, he took over Modric's class as CEO, and turned Cisco into a large company with a peak market value of hundreds of billions of dollars at the beginning of the 21st century.

Of course, Cisco, like other wireless communication base station giants, was forced to a dead end by Huawei. However, this does not mean that John Chambers, the legendary CEO, is incapable just because he lost the season.

After all, it is not a shame to be forced to death by Huawei. Among those Cisco peers on the planet, except for one Ericsson who insisted on surviving, didn't the others be slaughtered by Huawei, and no one was more ashamed than anyone else.

(This refers to those peers that overlap with Huawei's "network-side equipment business", that is, companies that do business with operators such as mobile telecommunications.) Huawei later made terminal equipment across the circle, such as mobile phones; in the terminal market, Huawei is certainly not the strongest, Apple and Samsung are alive and well, and it is impossible to unify the world)

……

Wang An is not a traverser, so he will not know the details of the specific events that will happen "after he forcibly puts his son on the throne".

I won't know about the entanglements of Chambers and Cisco in the future.

He just relied on his business talent and instinctive sense of smell, and felt that there was a high probability that something would happen.

In this life, Wang An was asked by Gu Biao to go to China through Peterson to participate in the symposium "On the Sword", and history was changed.

So whether it's Carningham or Chambers, the trajectory of their subsequent lives will not follow the original inertia. Even if he betrays Wang An Computer, he will not necessarily go to Cisco.

Maybe I'll go to Tiankun.

Don't say too much about what hasn't happened yet.

Wang An forcibly excused himself for being unwell, delayed for a few more days, and bought his son more time to prepare for the army, until April 15, when he slowly chartered a special plane and flew to the capital.

In order not to let the signs of cultivating his cronies be too obvious, he not only brought his son Wang Lie, but also brought a few strategic roles of the company to play the role of covering - all of them are second-level roles that are impossible to take over as general manager.

Cunningham and Chambers, who have risen in prestige and are likely to succeed the president after his own death, will never be carried.

It is equivalent to when Zhu Yuanzhang takes Zhu Yunwen out for a walk, he can take Geng Bingwen, but he can't take Xu Da to Chang Yuchun.

For more than ten hours on the special plane, Wang Lie was still making up for the latest industry trends and strategic development deductions, and he did not dare to delay at all.

And his father was unwell and lackluster because of the middle stage of cancer, so he almost fell asleep on the plane.

Wang Lie didn't dare to disturb his father's rest, and held on until he was about to land, when he saw that his father was a little dazed, and then gently woke up the other party.

Wang An struggled to wake up for a while, and looking at his son's expression, he knew that he was like a great enemy, and he was a little nervous.

Wang An couldn't help but feel a little hated that iron does not become steel: "What are you nervous about! It's just a symposium to discuss industry strategy." The more times like this, the more important it is to rest well and be full of energy. It's all at this point, what's the use of you cramming for a while?"

Wang Lie lowered his head in shame when he was reprimanded by his father, and waited for his father to slow down for a few seconds before he dared to defend himself: "Dad, the Chinese side asked us to come, and they also invited Zhang Zhongmou, they must think that we are the authoritative champion in this regard." It can play a certain role in the strategic layout of their development of semiconductors, intelligent computers and operating systems.

I looked at the list of participants, and there was a Gu Biao on the other side - if you and Zhang Zhongmou spoke, your authority was there, and Gu Biao might not dare to refute it.

However, I am soft-spoken, and some unconventional words come out of my mouth, is it not convincing enough? If Gu Biao picks a soft persimmon and pinches it, he will directly refute me to the point of incompleteness. Then when I came to China this time, didn't I lose my prestige, but I lost people, and it was even more difficult to convince the public when I returned to the company?"

Wang An heard it, so he was so angry that he turned his back.

He patted the armrest of the plane seat angrily: "Do you think that the industry trend I have deduced from you in the past few days is to deal with people? Are you afraid that others will refute you?"

You don't even have confidence in your own father's vision? Do you need the blessing of my identity to be convincing? Do you think this truth itself is wrong?"

Wang Lie was trained to be so reluctant that he could only explain: "It's not that I don't have confidence in you, I just think that those people at the seminar are younger than me." If he wants to be different and seek fame, and oppose it for the sake of opposition, he has no ideological baggage-

He is young, just like a tortoise and a hare race, even if the tortoise loses, there is no shame, but the hare can't afford to lose. So even if the turtle has a 1% chance of winning, it will provoke the rabbit. What's more, Gu Biao has always defeated the strong so many times with the weak......"

Wang An stroked his forehead with his hand, and suddenly felt very tired, and he could no longer say anything to teach his son.

The plane slowly stopped, and the father and son of the Wang family slowly descended from the gangway, and Wang Lie personally supported his seriously ill father.

A few ordinary Mercedes-Benzes were parked next to the gangway, and Gu Biao waited there with a smile on his face to welcome the arrival of Dr. Wang An - Gu Biao was not arrogant enough to equip the Lincoln Extended Edition in the capital, after all, it was particularly low-key in the capital, several times more low-key than the local head snake in Qiantang.

Seeing Wang An stand down the gangway, Gu Biao immediately greeted him with a spring breeze on his face: "Dr. Wang An, look up for a long time." I have been friends with you for a long time, but unfortunately I have never had the opportunity to communicate in depth. I'm sorry to hear that you're not feeling well, and I hope you won't be too tired this time. ”

After shaking hands with Wang An, Gu Biao immediately turned to the middle-aged man next to him who was more than ten years older than him: "This ...... It should be Brother Wang Lieshi, I heard that you are also a top student in the Ivy League, and you are much more solid than me, a doctor from Georgetown. ”

Wang Lie immediately felt a tremendous pressure.

Set a small goal first, such as remembering in 1 second: book guest residence
