"Mr. Song Chen, good evening!"

Tony? Faddell had gold hair, but he was bald. Seeing Song Chen hand over, he didn't dare to slack off, leaned forward and shook Song Chen's hand, and said, "I didn't expect you to be in Seattle!" [Note: Error, Tony?] Fadel is not middle-aged, the author mistakenly thinks that he was born in the early 6o's, in fact, Tony? Fadel was born in 1969, so he is only in his early 3o! 】

"I took over Jeff, the president of Amazon? Bezos's invitation, by the way, came to Seattle to inspect the operation of the new headquarters of 8848! Song Chen smiled and motioned for the other party to sit down. He then added, "The view of the Renaissance Bar is breathtaking, it's beautiful! But I'm sorry to hear you and your friend talking to me just now! ”

Tony? Fadell shook his head and said, "Nothing! ”

"With all due respect, can I know your name?"

"Tony, Tony? Fadell! "Tony? Mr. Fadell gave him a brief cue on his resume.

Tony? Born in 1969, Faddell is a Lebanese American who graduated from the University of Michigan in 1991 with a Bachelor of Science degree in Computer Engineering. Song Chen naturally didn't know that the person in front of him was the real creative man of the Ipod, and he used to tightly control 2 of Apple's 3 trump cards: the hardware of the iPod and the iphone!

Before joining Apple, Tony? Fadell worked at Volkswagen Magic, leading hardware and software research before joining consumer electronics giant Philips as head of technology management and research at the company's mobile computing research group.

It was he who originally conceived the idea of a "handheld music player online music store" and established Fuse, a company with this as its core business, and received venture capital injections. But before the project was finished, the venture capital had run out of money, and he had to ask for help!

According to the trajectory of history, this cutting-edge engineer with a natural leadership temperament would have worked at Rea1netorks for half a year, and eventually resigned due to disagreements with the top management. Rubinstein added Apple on his recommendation.

Jobs eventually took charge of the "Ipod" project, and played a role in the exacting standards and optimization of the product.

Jobs's "** style" is well-known all over the world, and all the top management of Apple reports to him! Because of this, this Apple company with a strong "Jobs" style can't accommodate a cutting-edge engineer who is no less than his excellence, Tony? Fadel eventually left his job in 2o1o with preferential compensation and Apple stock.

If Song Chen, who admires Jobs, learns the truth of history, he will definitely have a big exclamation mark on his head.

Of course, after that he will hold Tony tightly? Fadell's hand, teary-eyed, dragged Wen Crepe's lines and shouted: "Mr. Fadell is to me, what Jiang Ziya is to King Wen, Zhang Zifang is to Liu Bang, and Liu Bowen is to Zhu Chongba......"

But it's wrong, although Song Chen doesn't know Tony? Fadell's awesome experience, but he himself needs a senior elite who is familiar with both software and hardware to drive all kinds of fashionable consumer electronics for him, and digital audio players are currently within reach! If you take ten years as the coordinates, he is also obsessed with Microsoft's kinenette and Ipad, and he is salivating!

Therefore, he needs an elite who can carry out his will and prescribe fashionable and powerful consumer electronics for him!

"Tony? Mr. Fadell, it's a pleasure to meet you! Song Chen smiled, "I just heard that your Fuse company is short of funds, can I ask, how many people are in your Fuse?" ”

Tony? Fadel shook his head and said, "There are only a few people, and a venture capital has provided the seed money!" However, Mr. Song Chen, although Fuse lacks funds, because the engineering prototype of the digital audio player has been almost opened, the key is to need the playback software that matches the firmware! ”

Nodding thoughtfully, Song Chen said, "That's why you're going to negotiate with the people from Rea1netorks?" ”

"Not bad! As we all know, Rea1netorks is the best streaming technology in the world, and if I can get the support and authorization of Rea1netorks, it will be beneficial for both parties! "Tony? The more Fadel said, the more depressed he became, "But the CEO of this company admires me, but the CEO doesn't approve of the MP3's hot sales!" In the final analysis, it is a conflict of interests, if the rise of digital audio represented by the mp3 format, then the RM format will be greatly impacted, which is obviously unbearable for them! ”

The mp3 format is prevalent on the Internet, and it is not only Rea1netorks that is unresponsive, but also the famous Sony arrogantly stubborn, and as a result, his Walkman MD ends up on MP3.

Song Chen smiled slightly and said, "So Mr. Fadell decided to work at Rea1netorks?" ”

Tony? Fadel was silent.

He did initially lay off Fuse employees to join Rea1netorks, and then slowly looked for an opportunity to convince the company's top management of such an idea, but now it seems that there is a better chance? Otherwise, Song Chen would not have sent his beautiful secretary to stop him.

Noticing that the other party was looking at him with a smile on his face, Song Chen folded his legs and leaned on the sand and said with a smile: "I can only say that it is very important to stick to your dreams, but when your dreams encounter setbacks, it is better to rise to the occasion than to go in twists and turns!" The point is, do you think your idea will pay off in the end? ”

was secretly "ashamed" by Song Chen's words, Tony? Fadel said in a deep voice: "Of course! ”

Nodding, Song Chen continued: "From my point of view, your company's lack of funds is certain, if you can't get the technical support of Rea1netorks, your company still has to open its own firmware player after all!" Technology can be researched, talents can be recruited! So, what you need is money, am I right, Mr. Fadell? ”

A moment of silence, Tony? Fadel nodded and admitted, "Not bad!" Indeed it is! ”

Song Chen said with a smile: "Although I don't know how well your company's engineering prototype is driving and whether it can accept the test of the market...... But I recognize the market potential of digital audio players, and even more recognize the talents who insist on their creativity and do not waver! Mr. Fadell, your ideas and dreams coincide with mine! I'm going to do some crazy things in the future, and these crazy things need a crazy person to help me make them happen! ”

After a pause, he put away his smiling face and stared at Tony? Fadell said in a deep voice: "So, are you and your small team willing to become the fourth wholly-owned subsidiary of American Chenxing Holdings?" If you wish, I will not only provide you with great money, but also give you a great world stage! ”

"American Starstar Holdings wants to acquire Fuse?" Tony? Fadel was stunned for a moment.

"To be exact, it is American Starstar Holdings that wants to buy you and your team, and you are undoubtedly a key talent! Mr. Fadell! ”

Fadell hesitated, "Why?" American Chenxing Holdings seems to be an Internet company? ”

Song Chen laughed and said: "I am committed to the overall layout of the emerging industry of the Internet, but I will not ignore the rise of the consumer electronics industry and the complementary role of the industry on the Internet!" Just like Chenxing Culture Group, this is just a shell company that includes both online game business closely related to the Internet, as well as stand-alone games closely connected to the PC side! I never just look at the present, I focus more on the future! ”

Song Chen's words not only made Zeng Qian, who was sitting next to him, colorful, but also made Tony? Fader's eyes lit up, especially the last sentence showed Song Chen's broad mind and long-term vision!

As a leader and elite of a group of companies, this is undoubtedly crucial!

In addition, as a professional vertical e-commerce company in the United States, 8848 International Station also has sales capabilities that cannot be ignored. If you join the United States Chenxing Holdings, you can also get the promotion of googLe, which is also one of the strong manifestations of the United States Chenxing Holdings!

This is even more exciting than joining Rea1netorks! Song Chen is right, what could be more important than a professional manager getting on the world stage?

Tony? Fadell pondered for a moment, although he recognized the strength of Chenxing Holdings in his heart, he still needed to test it: "If you acquire Fuse, how much operating expenses will I receive?" ”

Song Chen said with a smile: "Mr. Fadell doesn't need to test me, if you need it, I am willing to invest 10 million US dollars in the first phase as the company's research funds!" If it's too little, 50 million dollars is fine! An audio digital player has never been my ultimate goal, never! ”

Ten million dollars? 50 million dollars?

Tony? Fadell gasped, and his heart was excited! He knew that he could finally devote himself to the cause he loved!

Without the constraints of colleagues, without the constraints of funds, he runs forward towards his own ideas without hesitation!

However, he still suppressed his excitement and asked in a very calm tone, "Your generosity is exciting, Mr. Song Chen, but why me?" With your current status, it's not hard to find someone more suitable than me! ”

Song Chen was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "I have already had the idea of mp3, but because I have no talent and no technical reserves, I don't dare to try it!" Hearing the conversation between you and your friend suddenly reminded me of this, so I decided to go for it! Because I believe in one thing, great products will eventually be born in the hands of someone who has an idea, not someone who takes an executive order to open it! Because you have a dream, that's why it's suitable! ”
