Looking at the high-spirited Tang Huan, Ted? Turner said with admiration: "I heard that Fangyuan Computer will be listed at the end of this year and early next year, and at that time, there will be an IBM on the West Coast." ”

"It's not that exaggerated." Tang Huan smiled and waved his hand, "Actually, the development prospects of the cable news network are also extremely bright. ”

"Then give me your detailed opinion." Ted tickled? Turner urged.

"I'm an outsider, so I don't dare to talk nonsense." Tang Huan pondered for a moment, "I am optimistic about the network of TV networks, or rather, I am interested in all networks. ”

"Is it the same as the purpose of your purchase of Pacific Bell?" Ted? Turner asked curiously.

Tang Huan nodded frankly, "My opinion is that the TV network and the telecommunications network will provide some kind of same functions in the near future. ”

Ted? Turner's suicidal father was very strict with his teenage son, so Ted? Turner's upbringing was rather peculiar, and with it his temperament he became more withdrawn.

But the more unsociable people are, the more they talk after meeting people with the right temper. Now, Ted? Turner is the case with Tang Huan.

Obviously, Tang Huan's own aura is much more powerful than Reagan's buff effect "Great Communicator", which really makes Ted? Turner took a look.

When the matter was almost discussed, Tang Huan hurried to the next stop, Walmart's headquarters in Arkansas.

After trying Tang Huan's advice, Sam? Walton has benefited a lot from the company's management.

First of all, from the practical application performance of Fangyuan computer. The stability of this hardware platform is no worse than that of established computer companies such as IBM. And its procurement costs, system maintenance costs and other aspects of capital investment. is relatively downward.

Secondly, Zheru's database and information management system is increasingly showing its strength, and its in-depth multi-dimensional data mining function is beyond the simple traditional report analysis means too much, such as the sales status and future trend of various commodities, various cost accounting and other data, can always be fed back to Sam at the fastest speed? Walton there. This hard-working founder was relieved to reduce the number of visits to various branches by private jet.

It can be said that Tang Huan is gradually replacing traditional computer companies such as IBM and becoming Wal-Mart's largest application solution provider.

Another point that has to be mentioned is that Tang Huan gave Sam? Walton's Sam's Club idea proved to be incredibly powerful in attracting customers, and although sales profits were greatly compressed, Walmart attracted the attention of Wall Street with the sales it contributed, and the stock price began to rise continuously.

Tang Huan went to Wal-Mart headquarters this time. The main purpose is to inspect our own technology and products, and what kind of practical assistance is provided to this model customer.

Among the welcoming staff. Tang Huan saw a white woman in her 30s, and couldn't help but be slightly stunned, this is not Hillary, the first lady of the United States in the original time and space? Clinton.

"Don, is this Hillary, the director of the company? Ms. Rodham. "Sam? Walton enthusiastically centered the introduction.

"No, please call me Hillary? Clinton. "In the midst of a pleasantry, Hillary? Clinton deliberately corrected it.

Hearing this, Tang Huan's heart moved slightly, and he muttered to himself, "The Clintons have launched a new round of competition for the governorship of Arkansas." ”

Back in 1978, Bill, who had been the Arkansas Attorney General for two years, was in the office of Bill Brown. Clinton, at the age of 32, won the title of "youngest governor" and got the position of governor of Arkansas.

But, Bill? Clinton's first term as governor was a difficult one, and he faced many difficult problems.

So, in the face of great opposition, he made all kinds of reforms. For example, the unpopular motor vehicle tax.

And then the president - Jimmy of the Democratic Party? Carter's insistence on setting up refugee camps in Arkansas on the issue of setting up refugee camps in Guba has aroused voter revulsion and caused the popularity of the Democratic Party in the state to plummet.

To add insult to injury, in 1980, a number of Cuban refugees awaiting screening managed to escape from prison.

As a result, after the expiration of the first governor's term in 1980, Bill? Clinton lost his re-election bid and was defeated by Republican Frank Durward White. Dward? Replaced by White.

After stepping down, Bill? In addition to deprecating himself as "the youngest former governor," Clinton focused on reflecting on his failures in his political career and began to mend his relationship with the state department.

More importantly, he tried to forge new relationships with powerful business interests.

As Bill? Clinton's most important assistant, Hillary? Rodham is also reviewing his own gains and losses.

Bill? Clinton and Hillary? The Rodham couple are the most representative of the American elite, and the two have their own careers.

Hillary? Rodham is a strong woman, to take the most modest example, she became a partner at the famous Ross Law Firm, earning more than her husband.

Out of his own political needs, in Bill? During Clinton's first term as governor, Hillary Clinton, as the governor's wife? Rodham's refusal to change his husband's surname to his husband has caused a lot of controversy in the more conservative state of Arkansas.

And Hillary? Rodham's education reform was also scolded by the state, calling her the most vicious woman. A fire burned in Clinton's backyard.

Seeing that the time has come to 1982, the biennial Arkansas gubernatorial race has begun again, the ambitious Clintons have begun to act again, and Hillary? Rodham also learned the lessons of the past, made a self-change, took her husband's surname, and began to become Hillary? Mrs. Clinton, in public, reinvented herself as the wife of a more traditional politician.

It can be said that this can be regarded as a landmark event, and once Tang Huan secretly verified it, he understood what would happen later.

This year Bill? Clinton successfully ran for office, and the term of office as governor of Arkansas was amended and extended to four years. He was re-elected for 10 years. Until 1992, when he defeated the elder Bush, who had done nothing economically. Successfully ascended to the presidency of the United States.

In fact, in this year's Arkansas gubernatorial race, the situation is more favorable for the Clintons.

Frank? White beat Bill in 1980? Clinton, as soon as he took office, gave up on Bill? Clinton had made previous reforms that eliminated the much-opposed motor vehicle tax.

Although these measures won the hearts and minds of the people, Frank? White then went on to use the usual tactics of Republican administrations.

For example, in the committee that decides whether the power company will raise the price. Employees who join an electric power company.

Another example is the rule that while teaching "evolution" in the classroom, the same number of hours should be given to teach "creation".

More importantly, Bill? During his first term as governor, Clinton made reforms that set up welfare facilities that were beneficial to the people. White canceled it entirely, which immediately drew dissatisfaction among the state.

While the opponent frequently made unconscious moves, the Clintons were not idle. Like Hillary, who continues to pursue a career as a lawyer? Clinton, within the scope of permission. Secretly building up his own political power, as exemplified by his role as a director of Wal-Mart.

Bill? Clinton and Hillary? Clinton, who is a veteran of the legal profession, naturally knows how to stand alone in this kind of relationship of collusion between politics and business, and this can be seen from the fact that although the Whitewatergate incident will cause a lot of uproar in the future, the two of them will still be unharmed.

Thanks to the many external reports attracted by the couple's star halo in the original time and space, and the two of them both gave speeches everywhere and published books one after another to sell their success, Tang Huan's interest in Hillary? Clinton knows a lot about her situation, and seeing the beauty of this strong woman is as interesting as watching the actor perform according to the script.

There is no doubt that Tang Huan, who has several promising companies, is in line with Hillary? Clinton's criteria for making friends with business interests, although he currently has no investments in Arkansas.

You know, in the eyes of people with a heart, Tang Huan is not like what the media described, what is a Silicon Valley nouveau riche who started by selling video game consoles and is difficult to get into the elegant hall, before EA went public, he had already become a billionaire through Apple's listing, and now, he has already kicked out Apple and called for wind and rain in Silicon Valley.

More importantly, Tang Huan, who has a lot of popularity, has been safe and sound after several turmoils, which shows that he has gained a firm foothold, and it is not an exaggeration to be described as a tycoon.

From Bill? Clinton's first term as governor of Arkansas began, and Hillary? Clinton was active in organizations focused on child welfare.

So, in the course of the conversation, Hillary? Clinton took an opportunity to interject about his knowledge of the Shennong Foundation and openly solicit charitable donations.

Obviously, this is Hillary? Clinton for Bill? Tang Huan, who saw this, did not hesitate to do a kind of shouting and cheering for Clinton's gubernatorial campaign, and signed the check in person, showing his bold demeanor.

Also, Hillary? Clinton's professional quality in legal matters is completely worthy of recognition, and as the company grows bigger and bigger, and the legal risks it faces are getting higher and higher, Tang Huan urgently needs talents who know the roots in this area, and considering the future energy of the other party, he sent out an invitation to visit San Francisco and Silicon Valley and serve as a legal consultant.

Hillary? Clinton readily agreed, becoming the first female partner at Ross Law Firm, the third-oldest law firm in U.S. history, giving her confidence in her profession.

Waiting for Hillary, who always doesn't pretend to steal the limelight? After Clinton left, Sam? Walton's eldest son, Robson? Walton laughed, "This year's gubernatorial race, Bill? Clinton's odds are high, Hillary? Clinton will soon be the first lady of Arkansas again. ”

"Yes." Tang Huan didn't know how far the Clintons had reached the wooing of local companies in Arkansas, so he didn't plan to get too involved, and quickly turned the topic to the focus of the trip, which was the feasibility of contacting the data flow of each branch through a private satellite network system.

In fact, Zheru has preliminarily realized the technical solution and demonstrated it, and Wal-Mart is mainly entangled in whether such an investment is worth it.

For Sam, who is willing to spend only $5 on a haircut? Walton, Tang Huan is too lazy to lobby, such an old man, his mind is stubborn, it is not good to talk too much, after handing over the documents, he will let Robson? Walton took himself on a field trip to a Walmart branch.

In the mid-1980s, IBM, which had achieved great success in the personal computer market, accounted for 50% of its annual revenue: mainframes and minicomputers; PCs occupy 20%; Others account for 30%.

This "other" includes the printers, card readers, and other equipment that Tang Huan saw at Wal-Mart, and at present, it is no less profitable than a simple personal computer in Tang Huan's industry.

Tang Huan even operated his own equipment, and worked part-time at Walmart for a while to experience the advantages and disadvantages of the product on the spot.

For a billionaire like Tang Huan, how can he go up and down like this, Robson? Walton was impressed.

"Entrepreneurs can do whatever they want, and Mr. Sam doesn't do the same." Tang Huan shows off his personality charm.

However, Tang Huan didn't perform for long before he received a notice that the high-end special models in Fangyuan's personal computer, such as desktop publishing systems, were removed from the restricted list of the Ministry of Commerce.

At the same time, Tang Huan also received a news that the military procurement competition had failed, and was attacked by the opponent on the grounds that "the United States' share in the proportion of important accessories provided is too low", and finally lost.

"It seems that it is necessary to build a semiconductor factory in the United States with the same specifications as the French Fab1." Tang Huan pondered depressedly.

Luckily, it's going well on Walmart's side, Sam? Walton decided to build a private satellite network system and didn't let Tang Huanbai make a trip.

By the time Tang Huan returned to San Francisco after traveling in the eastern part of the United States, the time had already entered March.

With the influx of personal workstations, network servers, supercomputers, laptops, and laptops into Fangyuan Computer's product line, the company's operations inevitably underwent tremendous changes.

For example, Fangyuan Computer needs to consider the same problem as IBM, compared with the high profits of workstations and servers, the sales of personal computers are high, but the profits are limited, and they occupy a lot of funds.

Tang Huan held meetings for several days in a row to discuss how to allocate the company's resources reasonably, lest the layout of the personal computers be ready, but in the end, like IBM, made a wedding dress for others.

Another issue that has become increasingly apparent is that as the company globalizes, Tang Huan needs to include members of his advisory team who can provide more comprehensive advice on international relations.

Just as he was busy in the dark, another bad news came from the Japanese side, which surprised Tang Huan. (To be continued......)
