In the final analysis, there are too many things in the IT field and related to IT in Tang Huan's hands, and Tang IT can only be used to describe this kind of power. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

What personal computers, Internet, operating systems, office software, browsers, mobile communications...... and so on, Tang's name is almost everywhere - it is estimated that even the most narrow-minded ordinary people can begin to feel that they are becoming more and more dependent on Tang's IT ecosystem.

In this case, it is a highly operable mitigation plan to select the ideal agent in advance, carry part of the resources, and distract the public's attention.

Of course, the elite circles at the top should not expect to hide from the world, because they have already controlled the world's most important information channels by virtue of their first-mover advantage in time, and then have a "God's perspective".

When the news that Tang Huan bought $200 million of non-voting shares of Apple Computer Company out of his own pocket was confirmed, the voices that had sworn to analyze that another non-square system brand in the personal computer industry would be eliminated disappeared at once, and instead, Tang was the richest man in the world and tried to find a way out for Apple Computer Company.

For example, Jean-Louis Garcy, the former head of product development at Apple Computer and now the CEO of Be, enthusiastically praised Don not only for his old feelings, but also for his grace and ability to accommodate a non-square standard personal computer. The current Apple computer company is just a respite, as long as it can launch new products, the business situation will definitely improve. And Don, generously and kindly, contributed to this respite.

After all, Jean-Louis Garcy has worked for Apple Computer for many years, and he is an "old man", and his grasp of the situation of Apple Computer is convincing enough.

As a result, the saying that "the richest man in Tang is a good person" spread again.

However, Tang Huan, the client, did not take it to heart with appreciation.

Guy, he knew—what Jean-Louis Garcy was so zealous about putting on his top hat.

At this time, Jobs, who was sitting opposite Tang Huan, commented with disdain: "This guy really spent a lot of effort to sell his operating system BeOS to Apple Computer. ”

More than 10 years ago, Jean-Louis Garcy was Jobs' younger brother at Apple Computer, and Jobs trusted him very much, and even did not hide that he planned to take advantage of John Scully's trip to China to sign an Apple computer import contract to launch a coup d'état and seize control of the company.

As a result, Jean-Louis Garcy turned around and told John Scully.

In this way, John Scully canceled his trip to China and preemptively took down Jobs; Jean-Louis Garcy, on the other hand, was rewarded with the merit of gaining control of Jobs' line of MAC computers.

Jobs, who is still full of personality, does not deny that he tried to seize power through a corporate coup d'état, and has nothing to do with nobility, but this does not mean that he is indifferent to Jean-Louis Garcy's whistleblowing; On the contrary, the little ledger in the heart must be remembered clearly—otherwise, it would not be so contemptuous and disdainful now.

In short, in Jobs's eyes, John Scully stabbed a sword in front of the gentleman, while Jean-Louis Garcy stabbed him insidiously in the back.

"Realistically speaking, judging from the product evaluation report of Zheru, BeOS's support for multi-processor, multi-threading, and multimedia is still quite good." Tang Huan replied lightly: "Perhaps, it is precisely because of this capital that Garcy confidently believes that he has decided to eat Apple Computer Company, which is in urgent need of an excellent operating system, and wants to make a lot of money." ”

"In that case, Garcy doesn't know about my participation in the competition." A look of gloom flashed across Jobs' face.

Don't look at him for not wanting to see Jean-Louis Garcy, but Apple's negotiations with the other party on the operating system are far more in-depth than with himself.

If you want to put it bluntly to describe this kind of differential treatment, regardless of the embarrassment, it is that Apple Computer still doesn't want to see him Jobs.

Tang Huanwan smiled, "If Garcy knew, then it is estimated that he would not insist on asking for $400 million." ”

Jobs tentatively asked, "What is the maximum price that Apple is willing to bid for the introduction of an operating system?" ”

"Now the counteroffer is $120 million." Tang Huan replied directly: "I estimate that the maximum amount of US dollars can be 200 million US dollars." ”

Jobs, who has always been very shrewd about money numbers, nodded knowingly.

Tang Huan said leisurely: "But I think that if you talk about this, it is no longer worth it." ”

Jobs said frankly about his psychological expectations, "If Apple can give me $150 million, then I will not hesitate to join Apple Computer with NeXT." ”

"The specific bargain is up to you." Tang Huan bowed slightly, "The value and notty I just mentioned are actually in terms of the value of the two teams, you and Garcy. ”

Jobs heard the praise in the words of Mr. the richest man, and couldn't help but show a smug look on his face, but then he was stimulated by Tang Huan and his face turned dark.

"I know that Oracle CEO Larry Ellison has egged you on for him to raise the money, and you will come forward to force the acquisition of Apple Computer." The richest man waved his hand lightly and summed it up succinctly: "This result does not allow it. ”

Jobs's lips moved, but for a moment he couldn't find the right words. Gain, not to mention whether Tang Huan has this kind of energy to cover the sky with one hand, even he feels that Larry Ellison's way of acting is too rough and not to his liking.

In Jobs's heart, Apple Computer has always occupied a special position, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is regarded as his own, and it is difficult to accept Larry Ellison's treatment of it so roughly, so he can only find a satisfactory way to return to Apple Computer from Tang Huan.

Now, this goal is getting closer and closer, and the fallen Apple Computer Company is convinced to take the initiative to ask the richest man for help, and Tang Huan is inclined to let him Jobs come forward to turn the tide.

With such an "elegant" return route, how can Larry Ellison do it?

Therefore, Tang Huan was full of contempt for Larry Ellison's plan of action to forcibly take over Apple Computer in a gang with Jobs, and Jobs had nothing to say.

And the next words of Mr. the richest man hit Jobs's hands again, making him quickly throw away the entanglement in his heart.

I only heard Tang Huan say "affectionately": "Apple Computer has a history of almost 20 years now, and its status in Silicon Valley and the entire computer industry should be respected." For example, when external forces intervene in it, they should be able to withstand the scrutiny of morality and public opinion -- in our case, we must be gentlemen. ”

Jobs, who was almost in tears, nodded his head again and again with sympathy, and almost blurted out - confidant! I want that elegant and perfect way to come back.

I have to say that Jobs has always accepted a fact that he is unwilling to admit, that is, his powerful "distortion force field" can be called a hundred trials and tried-and-true in front of others, but in front of Mr. the richest man, not only is it ineffective, but he is also led by the nose unconsciously.

"Needless to say, Apple has been doing its best to avoid mentioning your name." Tang Huan said slowly: "The twisted melon is not sweet - I hope that the change later can be a natural and gentle process." ”

Steve Jobs said very simply: "I think so too." ”

"Well, we're on the same page." The richest man smiled and asked meaningfully, "Next, I'm going to introduce you to the board of directors of Apple Computer - are you ready?" ”

Jobs shrugged, "I've been looking forward to this moment for a long time." ”

……

Tang Huan and Jobs drove Jane to Apple's headquarters in Cupertino, and in the parking lot, they didn't know why they met the unhappy Gates so coincidentally.

Now everyone seems to be really tired of each other, and there is nothing to say - look at Gates's posture, just pretend not to see the road leading to the sky.

Tang Huan beckoned and said gently, "Bill, can you make a few small talks?" ”

Gates hesitated for a moment, but finally walked over.

Jobs asked unceremoniously, "What are you doing at Apple Computer?" ”

Gatspie replied with a smile, "Guess! ”

Tang Huan playfully took over, "I think Microsoft should also be ready to recommend its operating system to Apple Computer." ”

Gates muttered with some annoyance, "It seems that Jill Amelio, the CEO of Apple Computer, has changed his allegiance." It's just that I don't know if he realizes how long he can keep his CEO position. ”

Jobs sneered: "Just that plagiarized Windows, I'm embarrassed to sell it." ”

Gates retorted without showing weakness: "We both stole the graphical user interface from PARC, except that you walked in through the door and I jumped in through the window." ”

Jobs sneered, "So, your graphical user interface operating system is called Windows?" ”

Gates was equally mercilessly sarcastic: "When you return to Apple Computer, you will have a minimum position to discuss this matter." ”

Tang Huan coughed, interrupting the sparkling verbal exchange between the two sides, and said to Gates in a sincere tone: "Bill, can we discuss one thing calmly?" ”

Gates withdrew his hand pointing at Jobs, "Would you like to hear more?" ”

"As you've probably heard, I bought $200 million of non-voting shares in Apple out of my own pocket." Tang Huan smiled: "I suggest, you might as well buy some too." ”

Gates casually rhetorically asked, "What reason do I have to do this?" ”

"Foolish! I thought of it right away, and you haven't reacted yet? Jobs pulled the hatred again: "Don, I don't think you need to waste time with this guy anymore." ”

Gates didn't take the ridicule this time, frowned and confirmed to Tang Huan: "Do you think Microsoft can take this opportunity to completely end the multi-year dispute with Apple Computer about the graphical user interface?" ”

Tang Huan spread his hands and asked instead of answering, "Don't you think that this is a good opportunity to stop the quarrel that is good for everyone?" ”

Gates asked uncertainly, "How much do you think I should bid for Apple's current poor operations?" ”

Jobs snorted, "A billion dollars is not too much." ”

Gates sneered, pointed to Jobs' Mercedes Benz and said, "If I can buy Apple Computer, then I will issue a strict order to prohibit the occupation of parking spaces for people with disabilities." ”

"You two, let's discuss it." Tang Huan shrugged his shoulders and turned to leave.

……

In the conference room, the members of the board of directors of Apple Computer Company saluted the richest man in unison, waiting for him to speak.

Don't look at Tang Huan spent $200 million, but he only bought non-voting shares of Apple Computer, but he is Tang IT -- compared to the controlling stake on the surface, the connections and prestige in the secret are even more oppressive.

Moreover, it is precisely because Tang Huan bought non-voting shares of Apple Computer that he has become more and more detached, and everyone can only listen convincingly.

The richest man got straight to the point and said, "You're all busy, so I won't waste your time - I'll introduce an old friend now." ”

As the door was pushed open, Jobs walked in confidently like a cat — perhaps a cat — but the same aggression he displayed and the evolution of his realm to become more and more "elegant" can only be described as such.

The people on Apple's side all looked different, and the atmosphere in the conference room became delicate.

Feeling Tang Huan glance at himself imperceptibly, Mike Macura, chairman of the board of directors of Apple Computer Corporation, stood up, stepped forward, and took the initiative to speak: "Steve, welcome." ”

As a result, Mike Macoola and Steve Jobs, two business partners who were once like father and son, shook hands again after years of dislike - that scene made people sigh and touch......

After the sensationalism, Jobs said to the crowd: "I am a father now, I need a stable job and a source of income, and I sincerely hope to lead the NeXT team to join Apple Computer - and now, I will introduce you to NeXT's operating system, NeXTSTEP." ”

……

For Jean-Louis Garcy's BeOS and Steve Jobs' NeXTSTEP, Apple will have a "fair" bidding process, which is a necessary part of the question.

However, Mr. the richest man, who has been delayed by Apple Computer for a lot of time, will no longer personally ask such a trivial matter. He set off directly and came to Yanjing.

Tang Huan's Wuyue Business School, which was built by Tang Huan for China's business community, will open in the fall of this year -- he has long promised to attend the ceremony in person to ensure the absolute gold content of this circle.
