During a recent medical check-up, Son was diagnosed with chronic hepatitis B, also known as hepatitis B, and the doctor diagnosed him with a maximum of about three years to live.

After confirming the news, Tang Huan didn't say a word, and hurriedly flew directly from the United States to Japan to visit the other party.

Now the atmosphere of the Sun family is naturally gloomy, Sun Zhengyi's wife Ohno is beautiful and smiling, and under a closer look, her eyes are red and swollen from crying.

"Don, why did you come so fast?" Son asked listlessly and casually.

"After getting the news, of course I have to rush over as soon as possible." Tang Huan looked at the other party's complexion, "Otherwise, you go to the United States to recuperate, and I will arrange it." ”

"No, the level of medical care in Japan is also very advanced." Son Zhengyi shook his head, took a few documents and put them in front of Tang Huan, "I can't continue to contribute to the listing of Taidong and Epson, and it's no longer appropriate to ask for these shares." ”

Tang Huan pushed the document back, and said in a resolute tone: "I won't be so unkind to meritorious people, you better accept it." Besides, if the situation really gets to the worst, you can leave it to your family. ”

Son glanced back at his wife and children and sighed silently.

"SoftBank is my heart's work, and I want to give it to someone I trust. Don, you take it. After a moment of silence, Son continued to nag as if he had explained the aftermath.

SoftBank, founded by Son, currently owns several magazines related to personal computers and video games.

Since there is no Internet yet, information including industry knowledge, latest developments, user experience, etc., can only be disseminated through traditional print media. SoftBank has virtually become a bridge between manufacturers and customers. Play a role that is becoming more and more authoritative. The results were also quite good.

However, Tang Huan didn't plan to accept this property, he waved his hand, and then said: "Since it is your own hard work, it will naturally be kept in your hands." Although you will be able to recuperate and be unable to perform your duties now, you can find an agent to maintain your daily operations and wait until your body is fully recovered, and then you will be in charge of the seal again. ”

"Can I wait until the day I recover?" Son's eyes wandered. He sighed dejectedly.

"From a scientific point of view, you are not even 30 years old now, and your body is very vigorous, and it is possible to defeat the disease."

Speaking of this, Tang Huan stared at Sun Zhengyi and accentuated his tone, "Spiritually speaking, don't forget that you are a person who has created miracles, a person who is good at creating miracles, and regards defeating illness as creating miracles. Isn't that a natural thing to do? Your current state of mind and the original fighting spirit are simply like a cloud. ”

"Create miracles......" Son savored carefully.

"My investments are modeled after the whole world. And I need the most reliable partner in every region, and you are the one in Japan. As long as you survive this hurdle, with the cooperation of you and me, it may not be difficult for you to become the richest man in Japan. ”

Seeing that Son Masayoshi fell into deep thought, Tang Huan stood up and said to Ohno Yuyu: "Before I leave Japan, I will come to visit again, and I will leave now." ”

After getting in the car, Tang Huan rubbed his eyebrows, he couldn't help but feel a little annoyed, and he didn't know if Son Masayoshi could survive this hurdle.

Although Son Masayoshi is a Korean and has not yet obtained Japanese nationality, it is still much more convenient for him to run some things in Japan as a local, and now that the other party's life is hanging by a thread, even if he is lucky to recover, he will not want to make a difference in the past few years.

But Japan's footsteps will not wait for anyone, and will follow the historical trajectory to enter the era of bubble economy full of gold, and the real estate and stock market are extremely prosperous, which is also the main reason why Tang Huan firmly pushed Taidong and Epson to go public.

Judging from the current situation, Son may have to miss this wave of market.

……

Tang Huan, who was quite sorry, then took a look at Epson's progress in CD drives and CD player projects, and found that Japanese engineers were really unique in precision manufacturing, and the speed of progress was gratifying, and the finished product could be presented to the world at the end of the month at the latest.

Among them, CD player technology can be roughly divided into two parts: one is the research and development of disc disc technology and laser reading and burning technology, which is responsible for Epson, and the Wang family of Baodao is very interested in the manufacture of disc discs, so they also participated; The second is digital coding technology, which realizes the transformation of music signals into electrical signals, which is responsible for the R&D center of Zheru America.

In order to manufacture sound cards, the team led by Shen Wangfu has accumulated rich technical reserves in the fields of sound simulation and sound digitization.

In fact, their greatest technical achievement in the CD project is reflected in the production of CD records, as well as the conversion of traditional analog form dense records into advanced digital CD records, and the first artist to try this kind of technology is naturally Deng Lijun, her record "Faint Love", will be released at the same time as CD players and CD drives.

Under the guidance of the technical direction pointed out by Tang Huan, the research and development progress of the entire CD project was at least three months ahead of Sony and Philips.

"I wonder what Sony's expression will be when it sees us preemptively launching a CD player?" Yasukawa joked with a smile.

"Peace is precious, after all, at this stage, we cooperate more than compete." Tang Huan waved his hand lazily, "Remember, we mainly study the CD drives used by computers, and as for CD players, they were just brought out by chance." ”

"Hay." Yasukawa Yingzhao bowed slightly, and the expression on his face was more strange, and he said in his heart that this would be more shocking.

Tang Huan's emphasis on "more cooperation than competition" refers to the personal computer war set off in Japan by Sony, Sharp and other Fangyuan computer-compatible machine licensing companies.

These businesses are all about sitting on the ground and developing a variety of aggressive sales strategies. It can be said to be unscrupulous. The first round of shopping. The thorn in Tang Huan's side, NEC's PC-9800 series personal computer, was killed.

If Tang Huan had made his own move, he would not have been able to achieve such an effect so quickly, after all, he held the title of an American company, and the Japanese official would definitely not want to see his national brand being bullied like this.

But Sony and Sharp are different, although the personal computer technology is not their own original, but in the eyes of outsiders, it has been digested. For their own use, they belong to the national brand, and no matter how they kill each other, they also belong to internal competition and survival of the fittest.

According to the current situation, Tang Huan estimates that NEC's PC-9800 series personal computers can no longer continue to develop, and will completely withdraw from the historical stage next year at the latest, and Fangyuan computers will really dominate the Japanese market.

However, Tang Huan's trick of "using razing to control raze", although it is effective and powerful, it is not without side effects. This is mainly reflected in the sales volume of Fangyuan personal computers of Zheru Japan Company. Inevitably, it took a hit.

Guy these Japanese manufacturers who have obtained the authorization of Fangyuan computer compatible machines, they are often a vertical production system, almost all of them have semiconductor factories, even Sony is no exception, I have to say that the semiconductor industry stimulus policy formulated by Japan earlier is too effective.

With this manufacturing advantage, their Fangyuan computer compatible machine is not only cheaper, but also unambiguous in terms of hardware configuration. The memory capacity all starts at 128KB.

Tang Huan can fully predict that when these partners try their first voice in Japan, they will inevitably attack the US market in a big way, and the market share of Fangyuan computer standards will be further improved.

As long as this goal can be achieved, especially now that the henchmen are in serious trouble, the Japanese national brand PC-9800 created by NEC has only stepped on the last breath and cedes part of the sales, it doesn't hurt, it will be regarded as spending money to hire thugs.

Tang Huan had a faint playful smile on the corner of his mouth, and quickly flipped through the reports of Zheru Japan, Epson, EA Japan, and Taidong.

In the consumer market, the sales of Zheru Japan's personal computer business not only did not increase, but declined slightly, which is naturally caused by those compatible partners.

However, in the enterprise market, personal computers, personal workstations, and network servers are growing rapidly, especially software revenue, which is simply doubling up.

Overall, although some soup and water were spilled, it still made a lot of money.

"There doesn't seem to be any significant progress in the supercomputer business." Tang Huan casually asked Yasukawa Hideaki.

"Still in market public relations, this field is relatively rigid, and Fangyuan supercomputer belongs to the new after all, and it has not won the world's first place in computing speed as soon as it is born to make a name for itself, so it takes a process for customers to accept it." Yasukawa explained carefully.

"I didn't go to grab the false name of the world's No. 1, but also to let our sales be freer." Tang Huan shook his head disappreciatively, "Our Fangyuan supercomputer, with the best software system, has absolutely practical performance. ”

Speaking of this, Tang Huan flipped through his file bag, found a record book and a floppy disk, and handed it to Yasukawa Hideaki, "This is the implementation of my computer algorithm on pentagonal mosaic research, you arrange for someone to send it to Sharp and let the Fangyuan supercomputer there perform the calculations, and the results should be obtained before I leave, just to prove that the Fangyuan supercomputer is not a fancy show." ”

The so-called "pentagonal mosaic" is a geometric research topic, that is, the use of pentagons to mosaic planes.

One of the most common real-world examples of this abstract problem can be illustrated by the use of floor tiles, so that the square tiles can be laid down indefinitely against each other as long as the area is large enough.

Obviously, a regular pentagon cannot be mosaiced because its inner angle is 108 degrees, which is not divisible by 360 degrees.

The progress of the research results of pentagonal mosaics began with the discovery of the first five species in 1918, and the most recent research results were the discovery of four species in 1978.

So far, a total of 13 pentagonal mosaics have been discovered, and Tang Huan's programming algorithm is to find the 14th one.

Since Fangyuan supercomputer is unknown, Tang Huan doesn't mind continuing to speak for himself and using mathematical research topics to prove its excellent performance.

Tang Huan's own authority gives his request an infinitely high priority.

After receiving the notice, Sharp immediately suspended the existing tasks on the Fangyuan supercomputer and ran Tang Huan's program instead.

Because the source code is written directly in the FORTRAN language, the operator can get the Fangyuan supercomputer up and running as quickly as possible.

With Tang Huan's golden finger, the results speak for themselves. Turning over the sky, the Fangyuan supercomputer discovered the 14th type of pentagonal mosaic.

Seeing this scene, Sharp was shocked and ecstatic, even they didn't expect that the Fangyuan supercomputer developed by himself and Tang Huan would perform so well.

It can only be said that even as a R&D participant, Sharp has not been able to fully understand the technology of Fangyuan supercomputer, and software programming is an example.

With such a perfect performance, Sharp didn't need Tang Huan's urging to know how it should work.

They made the 14th newly discovered pentagonal mosaic out of foam and covered the backdrop wall of the press conference.

The Japanese media, with great enthusiasm for this, reported on this new story so much that almost even elementary school students knew about it.

What's more, some responsive toy manufacturers immediately applied this geometric discovery to their own products as quickly as possible, taking advantage of the media craze and making a small profit.

It can be seen that Tang Huan's casual brain hole caused such a sensation that many people began to discuss the idea of "computers surpassing humans" in science fiction.

Although the search for the 14th pentagonal mosaic was full of commercial flavor, in essence, it was an academic research, so Tang Huan quickly elaborated on the results of this research in the form of a paper.

In this way, the credibility is even higher.

As a result, members of the former Imperial University, such as the University of Tokyo, Kyoto University, Tohoku University, Kyushu University, Hokkaido University, Osaka University, and Nagoya University, which had official support and had deep pockets, came to Sharp one after another.

Seeing that a business of $10 million can be made at least, everyone can't help but feel refreshed. (To be continued......)
