Chapter 209: Father and Son

The United States is a country with little history, the whole country was founded in 1865, but the city of Boston was founded as early as 1650, a place that is older than the United States, and its historical heritage can be seen everywhere.

Riding directly through the city from the airport to the famous Highway 128, sitting in a taxi, watching the buildings on the street look like a glimpse of the afterglow, and the black driver driving the car is talkative.

"See, the Boston Arts Performance Center that Dr. Wang Ann is going to visit last year after donating $4 million to renovate the Boston Arts Performance Center, Dr. As the most influential inventor and entrepreneur in Boston, the city government has also changed this art performance center to the Wang An Grand Theater, if you are interested, you should experience it. ”

A representative figure of a city is destined to be remembered by the residents of the whole city, just like thirty years later in Xinzhou to visit Ma Ali, the citizens of the whole city can definitely be proud to be with you for a long time.

Looking through the car window, the quaint appearance of the Grand Theater stands quietly, this is an ancient building reborn from the ashes, but unfortunately, the upper plane of Wang An computer has not been reborn like this Grand Theater, Boston only left according to the Wang An Grand Theater to tell the history of the past.

There are definitely a lot of well-known semiconductor electronics companies around Highway 128, and it is certainly needless to say that Wang An Computer is not to mention, and there are also some other companies engaged in personal computer research and development, such as DEC (Digital Equipment Company).

But the cruel truth is like a curse, the semiconductor giants in the Highway 128 Science and Technology Park have failed to compete with the Silicon Valley giants in the end, and the semiconductor industry giants along the highway have completely collapsed.

Like all large international companies, the huge Wang An computer headquarters is also extremely magnificent, the temperament and scale of the building are absolutely enough to match the city of Boston, and the headquarters building of Wang An Company was even built as a landmark of Boston, which is no different in nature from the later giant building of the Republic.

In 1980, the fast-growing Wang & Co. invested $60 million (about $150 million today) to build three connected 14-story buildings in Lowell, 25 miles northwest of Boston, which would serve as the company's global headquarters.

As a landmark building in Boston, the establishment of Wang An Building is incidental to the rise of the company, but it is also a witness to the rapid decline of the company.

In the most difficult early 90s, Wang An Computer also reluctantly sold its headquarters building, and companies in the semiconductor industry sold their headquarters buildings, which was not started by the famous AMD company later, and the first precedent for this was Wang An Computer.

The so-called three giants of real estate sales, this also includes: Wang An Computer, IBM, AMD, the latter two successfully survived, but Wang An Computer .......

"Let's go, let's go in and see if we can have a chance to visit Dr. Wang An, as the pride of the Chinese, I am still looking forward to meeting him. ”

Looking at the entire semiconductor industry, the number of Chinese employees in Wang An Computer accounts for the highest proportion, but when Wang Zhengguo and his party appeared, it is still a variety of unsociable, talents cultivated by different cultural atmospheres, and the aura is naturally very different.

I was about to go to the front desk of the company to register, but there was a half-baked Chinese next to me: "Hello?

The same Chinese face, looking at the age is about 30 years old, in terms of clothing, this is definitely a rich family, and to be able to appear at the headquarters of Wang An Computer Company, I think it should also belong to the middle and senior management of the company.

I felt that the other party's Chinese level was completely unpassable, and even not as proficient as Wang Zhengguo's English, so I responded with a smile: "Hello, we are from the other side of the Pacific, this time we are coming to the United States to inspect the semiconductor industry, we are also Chinese, I think the successful experience of Wang An Computer Company cannot be missed." ”

In recent years, there are indeed many Chinese people on the other side of the Pacific Ocean who are engaged in the semiconductor industry, your vision is very good, Wang An Computer belongs to the first echelon of the semiconductor industry in the United States, and it is the goal of many Chinese to work here, but there are not many people who can really join Wang An, the company is not short of people, in this headquarters building, it brings together the top semiconductor industry talents in the United States. ”

Very confident, very confident! To say that the cultural atmosphere of this company is quite good, properly giant.

It's a pity that Wang Zhengguo and his entourage are not job seekers who want to join Wang An Computer, and the three of them are all high-end talents with their own jobs.

"We are from the mainland, and we are also semiconductor practitioners, so this is an inspection visit, not a job search, you may be mistaken. For this somewhat domineering guy, Yang Yong never scolded back, but he didn't lose his momentum.

As soon as he said this, not only the middle-aged people who took the initiative to greet him were surprised, but even the other Chinese who had just entered the door also looked sideways slightly, being able to meet their counterparts from the mainland in the United States, this is simply a rarity in the rare, it is really not easy!

Just when a group of people were relatively speechless, there was movement outside the door, and a rather imposing old man walked into the door, everyone quickly moved and greeted the old man, and the middle-aged man next to Wang Zhengguo also walked over in two or three steps.

"Father, this is a delegation from the mainland, and it is said that they are also semiconductor practitioners, so this is the first time we have come into contact with visitors from the mainland. ”

There are two generations of Wang An Computer Company, and they are all extraordinary in temperament, and they are still father and son.

There is no need to guess, this must be the famous Wang An father and son, this kind of father and son are still referred to as father and son on the company's official occasions, which is naturally the tradition of Wang An Computer Company, after all, this is a family business that is very different from the structure of other semiconductor companies.

The old man looked at Wang Zhengguo's side, nodded expressionlessly, and then whispered a few words to his son, and then walked out of the hall, he didn't make any stops, it seemed that he was still very shelf-like.

.......

"Hello, just now that is my father Dr. Wang An, my father told me to take you to visit the company first, in the afternoon he will take time to meet you in person, for the compatriots from the homeland, he is still very interested, let me introduce myself, my name is Wang Lie, the eldest son of the family. ”

Maybe he didn't know much about the situation on the mainland, but Wang Lie still had a bit of a literary atmosphere when he spoke, and it was strange to listen to it.

For this guy who calls himself Wang Lie, Wang Zhengguo also deliberately looked carefully, to be honest, in terms of personal temperament, he does have the momentum of senior leaders of large companies, if it is just the feeling of initial contact, it can generally still give people the illusion that a tiger father has no dog.

It's a pity that the cruel facts of the upper plane prove that when Wang An handed over the company to Wang Lie under great pressure, this person used his actual actions to interpret what is called a real loser, and successfully lost half of Wang An's billions of dollars in market value within two years, staging the daily life of a god-level loser.

At this time, the father and son were still addicted to the illusion of the company's prosperity, who would have thought that the huge Wang An computer would rise as dazzlingly as its sun, and eventually it would fall meteor-like and quickly, leaving people with only its short-lived glory.
