Chapter 291, Go Home, "Fortune" is coming

Los Angeles International Airport, which has a fine weather, is much more comfortable than the Washington metropolitan area on the northeast coast, even if it is still a cold and windy time in February. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info Early on the plane, Alice took off the thin sweater under her down jacket, and when she finally walked out of the airport exit, the small suitcase she was dragging was a little heavier than before.

"Hey, Alice!"

As soon as she saw her daughter walking out of the street, Sophie, who was waiting on the side of the street, waved and shouted, "Here!"

"Oh, Mom~"

First looking at the red Cadillac at home, and then seeing her mother in a brown trench coat, Alice smiled sweetly, picked up the suitcase with one hand and ran over quickly: "Aren't you still busy today? Why did you come to pick me up in person?"

"Because your dad needs to prepare lunch."

Sophie touched Alice's head with a smile and took her suitcase: "My daughter is developing a fighter for the Ministry of Defense, so she can't let her take a taxi home, right?"

Alice rolled her eyes: "In fact, I didn't fly to Winton Street with an F-16, it was already for the sake of disturbing the people." Tell me, Mom, what was the surprise on the phone last night?"

As early as last night, when talking on the phone in the hotel, Sophie mysteriously told Alice that there was a surprise waiting for her when she returned home, and Alice still wondered if it was her parents who wanted to add another brother and sister to her.

"Let's go home, go home. ”

As she spoke, Sophie had already put her suitcase in the trunk and opened the driver's door, and Alice was in the co-pilot.

But just as she was wearing her seatbelt, Alice frowned again and stared at a white mark on the seatbelt: "Hey, Mom, where did this dirty thing come from?"

"What's that? Oh, that's. ”

Sophie chuckled: "When I went camping the day before yesterday, Oscar was sitting in the passenger seat, and while he was drinking a carton of milk, James happened to let the car run over a big rock. Outcome...... Imagine that, right?"

"Wow, dad did a great job. ”

It's a morning flight, so when Alice finally arrives at her home, sunny California, it's time for lunch. As soon as the car was parked on the street outside the house, through the window, Alice could see her father cooking from a distance.

"Hey, Alice!

Hearing the sound of the engine, a flowing red-haired figure immediately came into view, and Hannah threw it out of the house like the wind, and gave Alice a big bear hug in one leap.

"Oh ~ Hannah ~ You're getting fat!"

"Oh~Ellie~ Your boobs are bigger!"

Then, seeing a ghostly boy appear at the door, Alice's eyes suddenly narrowed: "Hey, Oscar, I heard that you sprayed yourself with milk?"

"Mom!?Didn't you say don't tell Alice!?"

"She found the marks on the seat belt herself, and I can't help it. ”

Bypassing the yelling Oscar, I took my sister's hand and walked into the house, and I could smell the smell of Chinese food from the kitchen from a distance.

Alice snorted: "Hmm~ sweet and sour carp, farmhouse fried pork, shredded pork in Beijing sauce, and the taste of tomato egg soup and fried river bamboo shoots, so hearty today?"

Oscar had already entered the house, and looked at his sister with strange eyes: "Dog's nose?"

Alice looked back and snorted and smiled, "Are you envious?"

"Cut!"

The table was already full of food, and when he saw his daughter enter the house, James also brought the last plate of fried river bamboo shoots to the table in time. The apron was still untied, and he said happily: "Come and try Dad's craftsmanship, Weiwei, sit down quickly." ”

Alice looked at the plate of fried pork with satisfaction: "The pork belly is used, and you can smell the spicy smell half the way down, it's amazing." I said, Dad, Mom, what day is it today, why are you so excited?"

It doesn't make sense that this is normal, and Alice thinks about it to come to this conclusion. Although she has just finished some matters with Lockheed, the development of the YF-22 must be indispensable to her own benefits, but it will not make her family so happy, right?

"In fact, Alice, we have two pieces of good news for you. ”

Everyone sat down together, and Sophie said happily: "First thing, Fortune magazine is going to write an article for you, and we believe that you will agree, so I told the reporter to come to the door tomorrow." ”

Alice nodded: "It's just an ordinary interview, it's quite trouble-free, but it's no problem." But it's just a Fortune interview, is it so fun?"

Sophie thought for a moment, "So, my dear, do you have a specific idea of how much you are worth?"

This really stumped Alice, Eton's schooling, the establishment of the laboratory, the filming of the film, and the preparation for investment in Japan, these things have occupied most of Alice's time. Of course, as for the follow-up of the game development of Electronic Arts Company and the follow-up of the construction of the training base of Blackwater International Security Company, it is not a trivial matter, and it is enough for anyone to be busy for a long time.

Therefore, since Microsoft and Nasdaq successfully sued IBM, Alice has never cared much about the stock market. Even when the news of the release and the start of 3.0 development was released, Apple sued Microsoft over the cooperation between the two companies and copyright issues, and she left it to Gates without thinking.

"Let me think about it, I read the Wall Street Journal a few days ago that Gates's worth has risen to ...... It's 300 million dollars, right, it's on the Forbes rich list. ”

Alice wrinkled her nose: "Then I am more than 200 million, and the listed company is just this one, what else?"

This phrase undoubtedly has a wonderful reflection among the family.

Hannah and Oscar were okay, they just gave their sister a thumbs up, but James and Sophie kept laughing wryly.

"Please, honey, don't you want to see how old you are now!?"

Sophie laughed and said, "At the age of fifteen, you have become a billionaire worth 200 million dollars by your own hard work, isn't that enough to surprise people all over the world? And that guy Gates only has one Microsoft, how many companies do you have? Have you ever considered what outsiders think?"

Looking at her mother's excited appearance, Alice swallowed three slices of greasy pork belly in one bite and rolled her eyes: "I'm really sorry, we haven't moved towards the era of mobile Internet and social media flooding yet, no matter what other people think, my circle is so big, and my feelings are limited~!"

If there is a business partner next to me at this time, I have to sigh again, because Alice suddenly came up with two new concepts. However, these two concepts are the same as these two concepts, and the whole family has heard her talk about it several times, so they are not very surprised.

"Then when you were in school at Eton, didn't any of your classmates tell you about these things?"

Alice swallowed seven or eight slices of greasy pork belly in two bites, mixed with three mouthfuls of rice, and said: "Many people have asked me, and there are many boys who have put on the appearance of courting me, but they are all blocked by Sissi and Maiya." Well, but that's it, but when I went to Lockheed a few days ago, those project members all looked like idols, oops~"

After speaking, half a bowl of tomato and egg soup was down, and Alice burped: "Dad's cooking is delicious!"

After eating, of course, everyone went back to their own houses and had fun, and Alice called all the members of the SOS group early and agreed to meet at Sissi's big mansion at 7 o'clock in the evening. Then, this whole afternoon, she has a successful career at a young age, and she really has a lot of work to do.

After all, Sophie had already stepped aside to have a Fortune reporter come home tomorrow for an interview.

Damn stinky old mother, my daughter just got home and found trouble for her again!

As for what exactly Fortune will ask, Alice certainly has a clue in her mind.

A few phone calls were made to the corresponding company, and the fax arrived quickly.

To say that Gates is the billionaire with the fastest growing wealth in the world is really not bragging.

Microsoft, which raised $60 million on the first day of listing, has brought Gates $300 million after a full year, and Alice, as the second largest shareholder, also has assets of more than $200 million, which is beyond doubt.

Of course, the value is the value, unless you sell all the stocks, otherwise you don't have that much cash. But there is no doubt that she has also made it to the Forbes list with Gates, and as a fifteen-year-old girl.

Cisco's thriving business has also paid off. Every time a competitor launches a new product, it is followed by a next-generation model with better performance, and this technology-first effort allows Cisco to hold on to all of its peers.

Whether it is a router or a switch, Lucent Technology, which ranks second, can only follow Cisco's ass, and it is as big as the gap between Alibaba and JD.com, and this gap is still suppressed by hard technology, and every time Lucent thinks that it has finally caught up, it is opened up again. To be reasonable, it's really speechless.

In fact, if you think about it, Alice agrees with Bossak's suggestion not long ago: it's time to hire a professional manager for Cisco.

Currently, this role is held by Sandy Bossak, who is the head of customer service. With so many customers, so many after-sales problems, and so many software bug fixes and upgrades, it's not a simple job.

There is no doubt that the editors of Fortune will definitely focus on Cisco, after all, it has been an industry leader since its inception, but it has not yet reached the time to go public.

"Well, looking for this rhythm, the next issue of "Fortune" is definitely a rhythm of selling out. ”

Thinking that she would definitely be on the cover again, looking down at her full C-Cup size, Alice grinned. (To be continued.) )
