Tang Huan's vigorous reclamation made Christina very satisfied, so the next day she was finally a little more reserved in front of the public, and began to seriously calculate her menstrual period.

As for the trip from San Francisco to Seattle, naturally everything was arranged by Christina's men.

In the past year, Tang Huan has not remembered how many times he has flown the Boeing 747, anyway, he has become accustomed to it.

However, this bland feeling obviously can't be compared to the satisfaction of owning a private jet for yourself.

Also known as the "JumboJet", the Boeing 747 is also known as the "Queen of the Air".

At first, Tang Huan was not interested in these evaluations, but now it is obviously different, he circled around the plane, and the more he looked at it, the more he couldn't help nodding his head in praise, "Sure enough, there is a kind of queen fan." ”

As a toy for the rich, luxury cars are no longer a problem; although there are no yachts, he has a salvage fleet, which is obviously taller and taller; and now with this private jet in service, Tang Huan can't help but think that he should be considered to have all five poisons.

"Honey, let's give this plane a name. Christina excitedly finished suggesting, and then said an idea, "It's better to be called Tang Huan." ”

"There is no momentum. Tang Huan shook his head, he turned his head sideways and asked Christina, "The special plane of the President of the United States, you know what it is called." ”

"Of course, Air Force One. Why, you also want to emulate a title like No. 1. Christina's gaze was deeply amused.

"Clever. That's the idea. Tang Huan stroked his palms and smiled. "Look. I started in Silicon Valley, and my career is rooted in Silicon Valley, so for the sake of commemoration, I called this plane Silicon Valley One, isn't it just right? ”

"Honey, you're always so creative, and Silicon Valley No. 1 is really more imposing. Christina, with admiration on her face, offered a fragrant kiss as if no one was around. Expressing his admiration.

This pair of men and women, who are worth a lot of money, are not afraid of the name "Silicon Valley No. 1" to cause criticism.

Although Tang Huan has not yet found the pilot from Xiangjiang Cathay Pacific, Christina's side has already thought it through, and some pilots have already begun to familiarize themselves with this aircraft.

In fact, among Tang Huan's many memories hodgepodge, naturally including the captain's part, the foundation of flying the plane is still very solid, but there is no need for him to make himself so hard.

Next, Tang Huan had to go through a series of handover procedures with Boeing, so he took the time to visit Microsoft.

Microsoft at this time. It is not a company limited by shares, but a partnership company. There are only a few dozen people in total.

It can be said that if Microsoft does not hug IBM's thighs according to its current model, it may end up being as obscure as most other companies in this period.

It can be seen that the unavoidable factors such as opportunities and nobles are really too important, and it is not difficult to understand the mood of some characters who worship feng shui after their careers.

While Tang Huan met Bill Gates and Paul Allen, he also found another familiar face - Steve Ballmer, although the other party had not yet turned bald for Microsoft, Tang Huan still recognized him at a glance.

It seems that in this time and space, Gates, who was under deep pressure, invited Ballmer out of the mountain in advance, Tang Huan muttered to himself in his heart, he was naturally very familiar with such a famous IT boss in his previous life.

As early as his freshman year at Harvard University, Ballmer established a deep friendship with his classmate Gates, and the two were also bridge buddies.

Later, Gates dropped out of Harvard University in his sophomore year and founded his own software company, Microsoft, while Ballmer continued his education.

After graduating from Harvard University in 1977, Ballmer worked as a product assistant at Procter & Gamble for two years before attending the Stanford Graduate School of Business for an MBA.

In the original time and space, on June 11, 1980, under the flickering of Gates, Ballmer also dropped out of school like his best friend, left Stanford, and entered Microsoft. Became its 24th employee and the first commercial manager hired by Gates.

In order to win over Ballmer, Gates initially promised him an annual salary of $50,000, exactly one percent of the company's capital.

When Microsoft became a corporation in 1981, Ballmer owned eight percent of the shares, making him the first employee to become a billionaire through a stake allotted by Microsoft Corporation.

Of course, friendship cannot withstand the impact of long-term contradictions.

In July 1998, Ballmer was promoted to president, became chief executive in January 2000, and only officially took control of Microsoft in 2008 when Gates retired completely.

During this period of time, Gates, as the founder and with supreme prestige, can naturally point fingers at the company, such as the widely criticized operating system Vista, which wasted Microsoft's resources while missing the best opportunity to compete with Apple and Google.

Ballmer had to bear all these charges, and even though he began to change Microsoft's business strategy, he was unable to turn around, made slow progress, completely lost the trust of the board of directors, and had to retire in disgrace.

At the end of this series of corporate power struggles, Ballmer has effectively fallen out with Gates.

Fortunately, as the longest-serving employee of Microsoft, Ballmer has not gained nothing, and his assets of more than $20 billion are more than enough to make up for the wounded heart.

Simeone spent tens of millions of dollars on space tourism, while Ballmer spent $2 billion, beating all rivals at the time, and took ownership of the Los Angeles Clippers from Donald Sterling, who was banned for life by the NBA.

Looking at the close relationship between Gates and Ballmer in front of him, Tang Huan couldn't help but look at the corners of his mouth slightly.

He remembered a rumor that these two old men had a habit at their current age, that is, when they encountered difficulties and meditated, they would sit on a chair and sway their bodies, the difference was that one was in the front and back directions, and the other was left and right.

Think about it, when the meeting is held, these two celebrities cooperate so well, how intoxicating the scene will be.

Seeing that Tang Huan was very concerned about Ballmer, Gates introduced: "This is my college classmate Steve Ballmer, who is currently working as a manager. ”

Tang Huan's current status is higher than that of the other three, so there is no need to put his posture too low, and he soon began to talk about each other.

In Tang Huan's view, as the two leaders of hardware and software in the current personal computer market, IBM is unlikely to cooperate with Apple and Zheru, and the historical trend will not change, and Microsoft will definitely benefit from it.

In this case, some layouts are still good early. (To be continued......)
