Chapter 338 Further Industrial Layout

Alice counted from beginning to end, and after the entire "87 stock market crash" has passed, it is indeed time to give partners a formal research center. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Since the end of last year, when Alice accidentally caught a very good hacker because of the Pentagon's hacker arrest, she has been quietly planning a big plan about the computer industry. Of course, these plans have always been brewing all the time, and they can be carried out only when the time and place are right, and the reason why Alice does not have the status of secondary school like "king of the world" is because many objective elements have not yet been assembled.

As for this big development plan in the computer industry, no matter who conceives it, of course, it is inevitable that it will go from easy to difficult.

Router development is far easier than developing an operating system, so Alice founded Cisco early on, and hired Mr. and Mrs. Posack as shareholders to work for herself. It is not easy to develop an operating system, but of course it is countless times easier than any of the later ones, considering that Bill Gates is also about to exert force, Alice of course has no choice but to throw out such a share to invest in Microsoft first, otherwise the loss will be great.

So, what about the third step?

This is a question that Alice often ponders.

She now has a wide range of careers, including Silicon Valley, film, literary writing, and military security, which is characterized by a very large number of complex content and a wide range of industries. For ordinary entrepreneurs, this is an unthinkable situation, but for investors who are not short of funds and know the future, it is really just a matter of throwing a sum of money in passing.

So, what about the development of reasoning and seriousness?

Cisco Systems, a leading company in the Internet hardware industry, was established by Alice and is currently preparing to go public; Microsoft Corporation, a well-deserved monopolist in the operating system market in the computer industry, has also been invested by her in about 30 percent, and the project is going on every day, and the system will inevitably be launched in the first half of next year, and everything is developing well.

So, reasoning, what about the third step?

Alice had considered developing a supercomputer, but it wasn't what interested her most. It's not that IBM has almost monopolized this field, but as a person who has returned to decades ago from the 21st century, she knows very well that the profit margin of this project is not large, but the development speed is not slow at all, and she does not need to intervene in anything.

So the question arises: what project could be more fascinating than artificial intelligence?

The real artificial intelligence is not the kind of intelligence of smartphones, but the kind that can be related to the Terminator's Skynet.

The ternary system is the best way to this door, and the charge is leveled and subtracted and then cleared, which happens to be equivalent to the logical addition of the unknown, and nothing can be closer to the thinking mode of intelligent beings. Alice thought about it and wanted to come to the conclusion that unless a Zenith suddenly came one day and sent an undoubted black technology, the ternary system was the only way for humans to achieve artificial power.

But the road to developing such computers was fraught with obstacles. Since the first computer in human history, "Ainiac", was binary, no one would bother to develop a ternary system for practical reasons. Because this kind of research and development needs to start with basic theory, researchers are completely unable to stand on the shoulders of giants. Small businesses are unwilling and powerless, and giant corporations are not a waste of resources, so much so that such programs only existed briefly in the Soviet Union.

But what its value is, Alice knows very well. Not to mention the possibility that ternary systems will eventually create true artificial intelligence, the computing power that is better than that of comparable binary computers is enough for her to make this layout. For nearly a year, she has brought together a group of geeky youths through cheap and secret recruitment, precisely in preparation for the next step.

The next step, well, as "hp" coaxed to ask, it's time to prepare a serious research center for everyone. After all, this is not the same as the pure programming of "developing an operating system", which requires direct research on the hardware, and always let the brothers have cats in their own homes, which is the matter?

Of course, the day I chatted with my peers through the computer class today is also the result of this year's contact. It's only been a year, and Alice certainly remembers what kind of interrogation she was subjected to when she first connected the group to this chat room.

Someone asked Alice if she was a secret government department, and if she wanted to bring to justice those of them who were making trouble on the Internet all day long; Some simply suspect that Alice is the KGB, don't look at the Soviet Union is becoming less and less powerful now, Gorbachev is a tease, but the battle of trapped beasts is not fun, what if there is any earth-shattering conspiracy; There are even people who directly and unceremoniously invade Alice's computer, and then they are easily counter-killed, and then completely fall under the divine power of "Neo"; And the behavior that everyone has had, of course, is to keep guessing Alice's true identity, and many of them are close to the truth, but they don't know what they think of it.

The process is tortuous, the future is bright, and one year is enough time for these guys who already have a common language to become good friends for the great goal of ternary computers. And Alice, of course, has won everyone's hearts with her identity as "Neo", relying on her real professional skills and never arrears of five-figure wages. So, even though everyone is a hacker who cares more about privacy than anyone else, they all think it's time to meet in the real world.

And then Alice really needs to prepare for the research center.

In fact, this is not a difficult task, and the establishment of a laboratory does not have to be very lofty, let alone how cool the basic equipment is.

Of course, it also depends on what type of research it is. If you really want to start a project like ternary computer research and development with great fanfare, you can't do it without a supercomputer. In addition, at least for the purpose of anti-theft, the construction of the research center's building and basic security capabilities should not be sloppy.

So when she returns to her dorm tonight, it's time for Alice to take a good look at her bank account. Although it doesn't cost much money to build a laboratory, it's just a million dollars, but November 1 not only means the beginning of a new month, but also the arrival of the third week of the "87 stock market crash".

The impact of Black Monday as a whole was so far-reaching that it would lead to the layoffs of countless workers, and the entire United States would be in complete decline by the end of the eighties. But in terms of the time period that makes people keep selling short, it is the 30 days from October 19th to November 19th.

In just 30 days, the Hong Kong stock market as a whole fell by about 45 percent, the Sydney stock market in Australia fell by as much as 40 percent, London was less affected but more than 25 percent, and the stock exchange indices in New York and Toronto also fell by more than 22 percent.

So, that's when Alice makes money.

And in this whole investment process, she also has to make a good choice with a total of $600 million in funds obtained by cashing out some Microsoft shares in her hands.

There is no need to hesitate to throw 400 million at Intel, Silicon Valley is the starting point of her career, how can she not get involved in the core product of CPU. The phone call of the CEO at the time had already been over, and the shareholders' meeting would be attended after a while, and the dividend was a matter of return, and after losing four-sixths at the beginning, Alice had to make full use of the remaining 200 million yuan.

Cashing out was just a process, so after buying Coca-Cola stock, she quickly got away with millions in profits. It is rare to have a time period that makes a large number of listed companies incomparably cheap, and the steady, accurate, ruthless, and real acquisition behavior will certainly not be forgotten.

So, when Australia's stock market is down almost half across the board, what companies are best worth investing in?

Little Sheep?

Don't make a fuss, it's New Zealand.

Well, there's also a Chinese one.

It's BHP.

Alice first learned about the company in her previous life, and it has a rather funny translation of the name "BHP Billiton".

There is a fundamental reason why this company can rank first in Australia in terms of profit value. Because this country occupies a single continent, it is extremely rich in natural resources, and it can be called a real resource power, especially in the development and utilization of mineral resources. Therefore, it is not surprising that BHP will become the world's top mining company with the right time and place.

Founded in Melbourne in 1885, the company has a market capitalization of $100 billion in oil and mineral extraction, and even oil tycoons such as Mobil and Shell would not be able to say anything if it claims to be the world's second-largest resources company. The latter may be larger, but after all, it is only in the oil sector, and BHP has the business of mining iron ore, coal, copper, aluminum, nickel, oil, liquefied natural gas, magnesium, and even diamonds!

When the market value of such a fascinating enterprise fell by 37 percent, how could Alice not throw a whole billion dollars into it?

Of course, there is a first and then the order in which money is spent, and shares like this, which will not be moved again if you throw money in, will of course be moved to a later stage. It's a pity that the change in the stock price is calculated in days after all, and when all the stocks collectively fall by 30%, according to the law, the short sale can only be carried out after three days, even if Alice has a total of 600 million assets in her hands, it is impossible to set too much in an instant.

$957 million.

Duration, two weeks; means, shorting; Starting capital, 600 million.

The stock market crash is not a listing of enterprises, and it will not allow speculators to obtain dozens of times the profits. The bursting of Japan's real estate bubble can only make the overall price fall by "a mere 70 percent", and Alice can rely on 600 million funds to sweep 900 million in ten days, purely because it aims at several that will inevitably fall to the bottom, and then suddenly rise sharply, and then fall to the bottom, and then suddenly soar, and then suddenly soar.

After all, so many company research reports and historical stock price records are not analyzed in vain. Although those unfortunate companies that are not famous, they will definitely rise and fall repeatedly in this stock market crash have long been fat sheep in Alice's eyes.

Ten days, two flickering, successfully made Alice swing to the largest batch of 900 million income.

Thank you~ (To be continued.) )
