It wasn't until the moon and stars were scarce that the party was closed. Sunflower can't dance, her feet are sore, and she was finally carried into the house by her boyfriend. The girl went into the house to remove her makeup, and Lin Yi turned on the TV.

The joint entertainment program, co-organized by the national television station, is very rich in content. This American-style Spring Festival Gala lasted for 12 hours! What's bad is that those American humors are difficult for Lin Yi to understand.

Lying on Simmons, Lin Yi couldn't help but imagine: "2049 is China's centennial, what kind of scene will it be?

Lin Yi controlled his frustration and began to diverge his mind: "It has been almost 5,000 years since the birth of Chinese civilization. If he becomes the leader of the Chinese in the world, he will start this celebration. ”

The residual heat of the double centenary has not yet faded, and last month's sales have been counted. 31,000 arcade machines, 7 million profits, it seems that there is not much growth. But when Lin Yi walked into the company, the eyes of his subordinates were completely different.

For three months in a row, the company has achieved profitability. Illustrate the paradise game, not anticlimactic. The morale of the employees has improved, and the respect for their leaders has changed from respect to worship.

When reporting on the work, Johnny complimented: "According to the price-earnings ratio, the company's value has exceeded 100 million. I would like to congratulate the boss for becoming the youngest billionaire!

Although Lin Yi smiled, he still waved his hand: "In English, you need at least $1 billion to be counted as a billionaire." ”

The vice president disagreed: "When the Asian branch is put into production, the billionaires will have it at their fingertips." It's not wrong to call it that way in advance!"

Lin Yi laughed when he heard it, and looked at the other party more and more pleasing to the eye. The otaku of the game design team can only worship with his eyes, and he can't say such pleasing words!

The other party exited the office, and he picked up Popular Electronics. The magazine came from Steve Jobs, and although the printing was relatively simple, it sold more than 400,000 copies a month!

Calling engineer Wang Jie, Lin Yi asked solemnly: "I heard from a friend that Atari Games is developing a home game console. Do you know this news?"

The other party was not pressured: "Boss, we have a confidentiality agreement, and of course Atari has it." Please understand that I can't reveal anything!"

Patting his head helplessly, Lin Yi remembered this. It's a good thing that subordinates can stick to their principles, and you really can't blame others!

After driving the engineer away, he called Julie again: "Popular Electronics magazine, you go investigate, I want to buy it." ”

In less than half an hour, the girl sent a reply: "This journal has no intention of being sold." ”

Lin Yi said dissatisfiedly: "Have you seriously investigated? The magazine is so shoddy, aren't they short of money?"

Julie's face remained unchanged: "Davis Publishing Group is a news media giant, and they are very profitable. The electronics industry is underdeveloped, and advertising revenue is limited, so the quality of magazines is poor. ”

At this time, she took the initiative to ask: "Can the boss tell me the purpose of the magazine's acquisition?" All roads lead to Rome, and sometimes the same purpose can be achieved by other means. ”

Lin Yi frowned: "The acquisition of Popular Electronics is because of its intelligence gathering capabilities. ”

Julie immediately replied: "Davis Publishing Group has a well-established market intelligence department. If we run an ad, the other party may sell the message. However, I think that the marketing department of Paradise is more worthy of excavation. ”

Lin Yi suddenly understood that he was distorted by the plot of the novel. The collection of information and intelligence can rely on the marketing department. This year, the Cold War is in full swing, and if you engage in an intelligence department, you may be affected by the pond fish!

He instructed Julie: "The company's marketing department is temporarily managed by you." Davis Group, don't let it go. ”

Before the girl went out, she turned around and asked, "Boss, do you really only need business intelligence?"

Lin Yi rolled his eyes: "It's not funny at all, I don't want to drink the FBI's coffee!"

After the marketing department is perfected, there is selected information every day. The Davis Group, on the other hand, will also provide an information catalog. Lin Yi reads selectively, spending less time and being more efficient.

All the universities in California, it's very lively these days. Angry black students, burning Shockley's portrait on campus. It's not Tom Shockley of Paradise Games, it's Nobel Prize winner, William Shockley. The reason is that he declared: "Blacks have 20% lower IQs than whites!"

After the affirmative action movement in the United States, unscrupulous racist remarks have become rare in public. Shockley was so unscrupulous, of course, it turned the sky upside down.

However, the 'first person in Silicon Valley' originally had a normal personality. Because of the failure of his business and the rebellion of his subordinates, he couldn't stand this stimulation, so he became obedient and irritable.

It was at this time that a letter came from Hong Kong that changed Lin Yi's mind. Uncle Guan first thanked: "The gifts have been received, thank you for your concern." When I heard that I had a successful career, I couldn't help but say something from my heart, and please don't nag the old man. ”

"It's easy to put the icing on the cake, but it's hard to send charcoal in the snow. Those who have achieved great things must be surrounded by a flood of words. If you are not clear-headed, over-inflated and arrogant, you are in danger of being killed. There is a saying in the Dream of Red Mansions - the fire cooks the oil, and the flowers are brocade. Be vigilant!"

Far away from the Pacific Ocean, Uncle Guan's love made Lin Yi very moved. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Shockley again. After this man won the Nobel Prize, he was surrounded by flowers and applause. After the dizziness is distended, the mind is blocked, and the delusional desire to accelerate the 'transistor era' by oneself.

I don't listen to different opinions at all. Eight important assistants, seeing that Wisdom became stupid, they all 'defected' and left, and successively founded Fairchild, Intel, and Liantan Electronics, almost all of them made great achievements!

Uncle Guan's warnings and Xiao Keli's lessons from the past, he carefully memorized them for the purpose of waking up the world!

Lin Yi took a cold shower while recalling the scene of the past few days. Except for Julie's chick, either envious eyes, or enthusiastic praise. Everyone is envious of the strong, but there is no malice. But if you are self-righteous and feel that you are already invincible in the universe, then I am afraid it will be a real tragedy!

Investing in Apple, tens of millions of cash, and billionaires made him smoke all day long. He hurried to the company, found Pence from the legal department, and asked, "On the market, do our two games already have knockoffs?"

Pence was prepared, took out the document and looked at it: "Six kinds have been found, and four of them have obvious traces of infringement. “

"Why don't you report to me, what if you miss the opportunity?"

Seeing that the other party's face was not good, Lin Yi was unwilling to shirk his responsibility, so he simply waved his hand to interrupt the stalemate: "Forget it this time, don't take it as an example!"
