The story content of the movie "Uncompromising" is adapted from the true story, that is, in the hexavalent chromium heavy metal ionized water pollution incident of Pacific Tile Power Company, a large energy company in Northern California, Erin Brockwitz, a rookie in the legal profession, is not afraid of power and seeks justice for the injured party Hinkley Town.
As early as 1996, the Pacific Tile Company accepted the judgment and awarded US$333 million in damages, the highest direct damages of its kind.
It's just that there is no high wind and bright festival here where Lei Feng delivers justice for free.
The residents of Hinkley Township are to pay $133.6 million from the Pacific Watt Company as legal fees to Erin Brockwic's law firm; Rookie Erin Brockwitz received $2.5 million from her employer.
Of course, it's not here that Hollywood is interested, but the artistic and commercial values of Erin Brockwitz's combination of feminism, environmental protection, and personal heroism.
Mr. The richest man doesn't care about how Hollywood screenwriters give character to Erin Brockwiczy, played by Julia Roberts, but he asks that the villain of Pacific Wattage Company should not be limited to Pacific Wattage Company itself.
After all, Pacific Watt Power Company has long been a yellow flower yesterday, and it has no position or conflict of interest with Tang Huan.
The real target of the richest man is Enron and the like, who are trying to take advantage of the fire of his own California high-speed rail.
In other words, weak women and legal rookies like Erin Brockwitz ostensibly fight against the powerful Pacific Watt Power Company, but in essence they want to draw public hatred for Enron, which has committed various illegal acts.
At this point, the script needs to be well designed, after all, Enron is now a star company that fools all ordinary people.
However, Tang Daheng, who holds the black materials related to Enron Company in his hands, will not lack talents who can subtly insinuate under his hands, and by the time "Never Compromise" is released, it will definitely not be the superficial that has so many foul words in the original time and space that it is rated as R-level, which can be compared.
Obviously, the condescending and complex layout of Mr. the richest man is not something that Julia Roberts, who was overwhelmed by the $20 million salary, can comprehend, and Tang Huan does not need to point it out, and this American sweetheart and Hollywood first-line actress only needs to exert her influence to make this movie popular.
In short, the high-flying Tang tycoon's perspective on the independent production of "Never Compromise" is completely a bull fight against Enron and the like.
Seeing that it was going well, the richest man couldn't help but laugh secretly.
He even couldn't help but encourage Julia Roberts, "Figure out the role carefully, maybe you can mix an Oscar for Best Actress when the time comes." β
Just as he was happy, Brad Swalberg, CEO of Zheru Software, called and reported in a hurry: "Boss, the stock price of Zheru Software has moved, falling below $50, and it seems that someone is shorting." β
"With me, the sky can't fall." Tang Huan commanded in a deep voice: "You just concentrate on the release of the StudiOS_XP, and I will be responsible for other things outside the market." β
"Understood." Brad Swarberg, who was reassured, breathed a sigh of relief and promised: "I will work perfectly on the fundamentals of StudiOS_XP." β
After putting down the phone, the richest man casually instructed: "Go and check what is going on with the stock price change of Zheru Software Company." β
The "stickiness" of Zheru Software in the ecosystem has been deeply rooted and irreplaceable; Even if it is sentenced, the monopoly is established, and it is dismantled like AT&T, countless people have become accustomed to the operation habits of many products of Zheru Software, and if they want to change course, they will inevitably pay incalculable social costs.
Therefore, even in the United States of America v. Zheru Software Co., Ltd. monopoly case, Zheru Software Inc. is in an increasingly disadvantageous position, but the beautiful financial report still supports the stock price of Zheru Software to remain stable, which is nothing more than compared with the .COM bubble, the stock prices of many other IT companies are soaring, some conservative, and even as a constituent stock of the Dow Jones Industrial Average, the Dow Jones Industrial Average has "stabilized" the Dow Jones Industrial Average, breaking through the 10,000-point mark from 9,000 points.
But no matter how complicated the situation is, the stock price of Zheru Software should not be less than fifty dollars.
Even if the United States of America v. Zheru Software Co., Ltd. monopoly case, the federal state lineup fell from the "G20" to the "G16" division, and the defective Gray Davis led California to join the "G17" to make up for it, the market prospect is infinitely optimistic StudiOS_XP is calling on the entire IT community to petition to postpone the verdict in the United States of America v. Zheru Software Co., Ltd. monopoly case, so as not to affect the big money opportunities that are now at hand.
Tang Huan filtered from the list of forces he offended one by one, and he really didn't figure out who was so boring or stupid to short Zheru Software Company.
Puzzled, Zhuang Menghua, who was still staying in Xiangjiang because of his grandfather Zhuang Yinuo's poor health, called and prompted: "I noticed that Julian Robertson's Tiger Fund has recently shorted Zheru Software. Therefore, the sudden stock price change of Zheru Software Company may be related to it. β
"Julian Robertson's Tiger Fund?" Mr. The richest man, who was a little surprised, laughed disdainfully, "Does he think that he has not lost badly enough on the 'Great Miracle Day' in Xiangjiang?" β
In 1998, that is, last year, Julian Robertson's Tiger Fund reached its peak, with assets under management reaching $22 billion, and even George Soros's Quantum Fund had to bow down.
As a result, in the Asian financial turmoil, Julian Robertson called a tyrant, even if he was hit by the Russian financial crisis, he still did not know how to restrain himself, and planned to make up for it by breaking through the Xiangjiang River; even openly said that he was very interested in harvesting the world's richest man who participated in the defense of Xiangjiang.
As a result, after the "Great Miracle Day" in Hong Kong, the Tiger Fund became a typical example of tragedy; As for harvesting the richest man in the world, it has become a joke.
Originally, the collapse of long-term capital management companies caused by the Russian financial crisis made Wall Street talk about hedge funds change, and now the Tiger Fund destroyed the confidence of investors, and was redeemed by customers more than 7 billion US dollars at once, which can be described as a big loss of strength.
Mr. The richest man really couldn't imagine that Julian Robertson and Tiger Fund would dare to provoke himself again and sell short Zheru Software.
Zhuang Menghua said disapprovingly: "What's so strange about this, Julian Robertson and the Tiger Fund gang have always adhered to the concept of value investment, for example, holding a large number of shares in US Airways, and have always been optimistic about the current high-tech startups that are not able to effectively generate profits and are proliferating." β
"Even Lucent, which was spun off from AT&T and specializes in communications equipment, and Micron, which makes semiconductor memory, are on their shortlist."
"Just because Julian Robertson's Tiger Fund has made a mistake in Russia and Hong Kong doesn't mean you can completely dismiss them."
"Take Lucent as an example, Julian Robertson and his subordinates analyzed from the glossy surface of this company that in order to compete for market share, it did not hesitate to sell a large number of communication equipment on credit, thus forming a large number of accounts receivable, which can be described as a crisis, so they launched short sales."
"In the eyes of Julian Robertson's gang, Zheru Software is probably not much different from Lucent."
"From a commercial company's point of view, Zheru Software is indeed a perfect performer; But the sword of Damocles of anti-monopoly is still going to fall; It remains to be seen how effective the petition from the IT industry triggered by the StudiOS_XP to postpone the trial will be. β
"In this context, it's no surprise that Julian Robertson's Tiger Fund shorted Zheru Software."
"Perhaps, people still remember, since they failed to capture Xiangjiang to make up for the losses caused by the Russian financial crisis, then this time it is better to get it back from Zheru Software Company at one time!"
"A good rider falls on a horse, and a good man drowns in water. These stubborn so-called geniuses are simply killing themselves. Tang Huan snorted coldly, "This year's wave of technology stocks is becoming more and more turbulent, as if it has led to the failure of the traditional value investment theory, which is not as intuitive and authoritative as the traffic." β
"Regardless of whether Tiger Capital and the gang are seeking their own death, for the sake of the future, it is better to stabilize the stock price of Zheru Software Company first." Zhuang Menghua groaned and suggested: "Anyway, Zheru Software Company has a lot of cash reserves, if it really can't work, then buy back the shares." β
"This trick is too conservative and not suitable for the special environment of the moment." The richest man said leisurely: "I want to kill a chicken to show the monkey."

"Since 1979, when everyone was still in the final stage, Gates and Tang Huan have been dealing with each other for 20 years. He has an experience, that is, as long as the other party takes the initiative to send something, it must be full of deep meaning.
After thinking about it for a while, Gates cautiously and slowly spoke: "Microsoft's current life can only be said to be passable. If you spend billions of dollars to buy Sebes, you will feel like an extra burden. β
Tang Huan raised his eyebrows and said straight to the core: "At this stage, the completeness of Microsoft's product line is second only to Zheru Software, and even stronger than IBM, only the enterprise database field cannot open the situation. β
"At present, the pace of development of the industry is very fast, and even Oracle, which only does databases in terms of software, has added front-end rapid application development tools in addition to the simple database management system, and aims at ERP directly facing end users."
"Everyone is rapidly integrating resources in depth, and Microsoft is still unhurriedly improving its products and catching up with its peers, and I am afraid it will fall behind more and more."
"The reason why Renke is interested in Saibes is because database vendors covet the ERP industry across borders, so this time I want to ensure that the pattern of the Unix platform will not be controlled by others."
"If Microsoft acquires Saibesi, it will definitely be able to quickly make up for the shortcomings of enterprise-level databases and maintain stable cooperation with Renke by virtue of the same root of MS_SQL_Server products as Saibes. But if this opportunity is missed, what use will Microsoft's not yet powerful MS_SQL_Server be to Renke? β
After Gates listened with an impassive expression, he glanced at Steve Ballmer, who understood the other party, and then put on his own impatience and asked bluntly: "Don, I have to admit that what you said is very reasonable. However, what reason and position do you have for Microsoft to take the lead in Renke and acquire Saibes? After all, when it comes to relationships, Nishina is your descendant! β
"You're right, too! Yes, what reason do I have, what position? The richest man laughed, stood up, paced a few steps, and then condescendingly looked Steve Ballmer in the eye and said leisurely, "Okay, Steve, then I'll give you the answer!" β
"In the case of the United States of America v. Zheru Software, Inc., didn't the Department of Justice think that Zheru Software was so powerful that market regulation was ineffective?"
"Well, if Microsoft acquires Sebes, does it mean that market regulation is still working, and there is still enough competition in the entire industry?"
Steve Ballmer avoided Tang Huan's sharp gaze and muttered to himself, "Isn't this called a monopoly?" β
Gates scratched his head, tormented by how to choose.
Steve Ballmer got to the bottom of it, and the richest man told his true intentions.
But so what?
This is Tang Huan's Yang Mou on the table! Do you take it, or don't you take it?
If Microsoft timidly refuses, it will be more and more marginalized in the highly competitive enterprise database market, as the richest man just analyzed.
If Microsoft follows the path pointed out by Tang Huan, I believe it will be the right decision, but what is this about? Who is the chairman of the board of directors of Microsoft? Who's the CEO of Microsoft?
Looking at Gates with a struggling look on his face, Mr. The richest man said earnestly: "Bill, our friendship has been almost twenty years!" β
"Think about it, as long as others don't come to harm me, when have I ever taken the initiative to do something that is not good for others?"
"In fact, if you think about it, you will find that Microsoft's acquisition of Sebeth is the best of all three worlds."
