Mr. Lin founded a venture capital firm called DBR Investments, and he said he moved Ryan to become the first general manager of DBR Investments.

"What should I do?" Ryan leaned on Lin Qiangsheng's side and looked up at him and asked.

"I plan to invest more in the Pentium computer, and I think it's time to start the GUI PC program," Lin said. Last time, I had already discussed with Li Jing, Wang Huichang, and Chen Jiali, and if you want to integrate a personal computer with a graphical interface, you need at least 200 million US dollars of investment, and it will take two years of development time! It may be launched around the same time as the IBM personal computer. ”

Such a research project is not much different from the investment and time it took Steve Jobs to imitate Alto's development of the first graphical interface personal computer, and even more than his research funding.

"But if IBM launches a personal PC, will the Pentium computer be able to compete with it? It's the Blue Giant! Ryan asked, surprised.

Lin Qiangsheng smiled and pinched Ryan's breasts, and Ryan snorted lightly and turned over and pressed against Lin Qiangsheng's body.

Lin Qiangsheng helped Ryan sit down, and said with a chuckle: "IBM will launch an open architecture PC, this is our biggest opportunity!" IBM will not pay attention to a small shrimp like a Pentium computer, and their eyes are always on Apple computers! Steve Jobs was a lucky guy who was said to have limited knowledge of computers, but he was a business genius who could make IBM pay so much attention to him! ”

"Really? Where are you lucky! Ryan slowly sat up straight, a pair of large children swaying up and down with her body

Mr. Lin took Ryan on a tour of the Pentium Computer Research Institute, which currently occupies an entire floor of a tall building.

In the small conference room, Lin Qiangsheng planned to Li Jing and others: "Our computer should have an Intel8088 CPU with a frequency of 4.77MHz to strengthen floating-point arithmetic. Intel8087 accelerator card can be installed. THE MEMORY IS 16KBRAM, AND THE MAXIMUM MEMORY CAN BE UP TO 256KB; The display should have 16 color output and the highest resolution of 640×200CGA; Storage requires a 5.25-inch floppy disk drive, and the hard disk should be integrated into the machine as much as possible. We want this computer to have a graphical interface, what you see is what you get, have a plug-in mouse and keyboard, can connect an external printer, and can connect another Pentium computer to form an office network. There is also an extremely important requirement that it must be able to connect to an IBM PC! You already know about the IBM.PC personal computer plan, and I want this computer to be 100% compatible with IBM personal computers! ”

Chen Jiali also learned to shrug his shoulders, and he jokingly said: "It doesn't matter, you are the boss." It's up to you! ”

Wang Huichang asked Lin Qiangsheng strangely: "Why does it have to be compatible with IBM's personal computer?" ”

Lin Qiangsheng shook his head and smiled: "Because IBM's advantage is too great!" I'm not arrogant enough to want to win against the blue giant! The Big Blue can now enter this market whenever it wants to. Who can stop it?! ”

In short, the company's R&D direction must be highly compatible with IBM's PCs! It's no problem how many times I want to repeat this, our future personal computers are to be compatible with IBM, which is the key to the success of Pentium computers in the future! ”

Wang Huichang nodded silently, but his unruly face showed that he was not convinced.

Lin Qiangsheng didn't care about Wang Huichang's mood at all, if Wang Huichang wanted to touch IBM, Lin Qiangsheng might support him and invest some money in him to start his own business. But don't do it in your own company, Lin Qiangsheng doesn't want to pay for anyone's madness!

To this end, he also specially convened the head of the company's financial and accounting department to report to him in a timely manner.

Lin Qiangsheng does not believe in anyone, anyone can make mistakes, and there is no time when a person is always right, unless he is not human.

Therefore, Lin Johnson has established a vertical communication system in the company. He asked the heads of various departments to have his contact information, which could be communicated in various forms such as writing letters to him and making phone calls. At the same time, the chairman's mailbox was established in the enterprise. Employees can write to him if they have anything they want to say to him, or if they complain. Of course, whether Lin Qiangsheng will return or not is another matter.

In fact, this method of communication has become very common after the popularization of the Internet. In particular, 13 companies like Google have done the best, and Lin Qiangsheng has only taken the lead in introducing this mechanism.

Not long after spending time in Silicon Valley, Lin Johnson flew to Houston, Texas, with Ryan. The two are like a couple of backpackers, and they can't tell that Lin Johnson actually established another computer company in the past.

"There are a lot of promising software companies or companies in the computer industry in Silicon Valley, and even in the United States as a whole, and many of these companies are very promising! Now is the opportunity to seize the opportunity, companies like this tend to invest in small scales, pay off quickly, and can quickly recoup capital. If you have a future, continue to invest. If you don't have a future, consider getting rid of it quickly. On the seat of the plane, Lin Qiangsheng said to Ryan beside him.

“Hi,Man！ What do you invest in, do you think I'm worth investing in? A black man sat in the front seat and looked back and laughed. His face was dark and bright, with an explosive head from the seventies, and his big white teeth were exposed, and he was making a funny expression and said to Lin Qiangsheng.

The people around laughed when they heard the witticism of the black people, maybe it was the combination of East Asian and Caucasian couples that made them feel uncomfortable, so some people made jokes about East Asians, and the people around them didn't mind having fun.

Lin Qiangsheng looked at the black man and said with a smile: "Sir, do you have any specialties?" ”

The black man laughed and said, "Wow! This Asian kid asked me what I was good at, and did I count as a JB long? With that, he squinted at Ryan.

Ryan was stimulated by the black man's eyes, she immediately stood up, slapped the black man directly with a big slap, and scolded: "Dead black pig! I don't care about you! Where do you have my dear long! ”

I have to say that Lin Qiangsheng's personal doctor told him that his Arab exercise method is extremely good, and the young man is growing his body, and he has a significant effect after three months. Grew by five centimeters!

The passengers watched this scene in amazement and were stunned for a while.

Even Lin Qiangsheng was half a beat slower, and then he also stood up and blocked Ryan behind him.

The black man was stunned for a moment, so many people watched him make a fool of himself, and he was a little annoyed and angry. The black man scolded and stood up. Rotate your fists and hit Lin Qiangsheng and the others.

With a "bang", Lin Qiangsheng suddenly clenched the black man's fist, and at the same time slammed his right hand into the black man's shoulder socket.

"Whew!" The black ghost cried wolf, and the tears on the top of Lin Qiangsheng's fist were all poured out, and the sharp pain in his shoulder immediately made him lose his combat effectiveness.

Lin Qiangsheng walked around the seat, grabbed the black man's hair, and slammed his head into the handle with a bang.

"Hey, stop fighting! He's dying! A young white man stood up and shouted.

Lin Qiangsheng let go of his hand, and the black man had already fainted. Lin Qiangsheng saw a white girl next to him looking at him in horror. He smiled at her, then returned to his seat.

"Honey, are you alright?" Ryan asked with concern.

Lin Qiangsheng glared at her and said lessons: "Don't be so impulsive in the future, you have to wash your hands if you slap him!" ”

The faces of the surrounding passengers changed, but I didn't expect this East Asian to be ruthless!

The two went to the bathroom, and by the time they returned, the black man had woken up. I didn't even dare to look at them.

There was no meddler on the plane, and apparently the crew wouldn't come out on top. A few hours later. Lin Qiangsheng and they arrived in Houston.

"I don't know what Team Rocket is like now!" Lin Qiangsheng muttered softly.

Ryan glanced at Lin Qiangsheng suspiciously, and then was attracted by a group of girls in miniskirts wearing various styles on the street.

Lin Qiangsheng looked at the girls and saw the new miniskirt released by Xpress this year. Now Xpress no longer has to look at the face of the discount chain, the Xpress series miniskirt has its own brand franchisee, Roy after handling the operation of the clothing company, with the support of Lin Qiangsheng to vigorously promote the Xpress brand.

Lin Qiangsheng has invested more than 20 million US dollars in advertising. And signed a group of beautiful girls with a youthful and hot temperament as exclusive models. The fashionable and unique seductive design, coupled with the hot girls who are charming and eye-catching, immediately became the vane of the majority of girls.

At present, Xpress has more than 240 franchise stores, and it is still expanding rapidly. Sales in the first half of last year exceeded more than 30 million US dollars. The small teen-dollar miniskirt shows infinite magic!

Ryan looked at it for a long time, and there was a look of regret on her face, she found that all the women who wore this kind of miniskirt were girls around 16~20 years old, and there were very few people over 22 years old. She will be 27 years old this year, and it is obviously not suitable to wear such a dress anymore.

Lin Qiangsheng leaned close to Ryan's ear and whispered: "It's okay, in fact, this miniskirt is more comfortable to wear at home!" ”

Ryan smiled, put his arm around Lin Qiangsheng's waist and said with a smile: "This kind of thing is still reserved for young girls, I am only suitable for wearing pajamas!" ”

Lin Qiangsheng observed Ryan's plump figure and said with a smile: "Actually, there are other brands suitable for you to wear!" ”

As the sales of the Xpress brand this year are expected to be better than last year, many large companies are also interested in this brand and want to buy it. IntimateBrands, a well-known American manufacturer of mid-to-high-end clothing, is desperately eager to acquire this miniskirt brand. Because they are about to launch a revival brand, Express, and the miniskirt is also their main product, Lin Johnson & Johnson's Xpress Yan zhòng has influenced his company's business strategy for the Express brand.

After Roy informed Lin Qiangsheng, Lin Qiangsheng didn't pay attention to the company, anyway, he operated it legally, and he was not afraid of what the intimate brand would do to him.

After Lin Johnson had a lot of money, he told Roy to contact the directors of Victoria's Secret and NIKE that he wanted to buy them.

Victoria's Secret! NIKE！

Just thinking about it made Lin Qiangsheng tremble with excitement! It's silky and faintly full! That sports style with a sense of science and technology!

At present, these two companies are not the multi-billion dollar annual revenue giants of later generations, and they are small and medium-sized companies in this period, just like Johnson Lin's Xpress brand. Victoria's Secret was acquired by the Intimate Brands Group in '82, and NIKE's directors have been in the process of frequent changes.

Not only that, but when I think of acquiring clothing brands, I think of the luxury brands of later generations, these big coffees are crazy about the money of Chinese in the 21st century, and the speed of making gold is really not covered! At that time, it seemed that the whole world was forcing people to buy big brands, and you were embarrassed to say hello when you didn't wear a big brand!

Although these big brands are also very good today, they have not yet reached the point of forcing Cheng dù!

Lin immediately called Stephanie in Paris and asked her to test the directors of the various luxury brands and buy their shares.

Like many old European families, who own shares in several brands, they treat them as heirlooms. There are also many brands that are in the hands of the founders and will not be sold. In this regard, Lin Qiangsheng told Stephanie to buy as many shares as she could, and try to do a good job.

It is relatively easy for American brands such as CK and Converse to get a stake or a wholly-owned acquisition.

Lin Johnson also has a deep purpose, he buys these clothing brands, and is more concerned about entering their board meetings and influencing the ownership of their production locations. (To be continued......)
