Chapter 589: Dinner
"I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it! Master, you still have such hole cards! ”
Pang Zhou sat on the sofa and laughed. In the past few years, he has rarely spoken Chinese, especially he can speak his hometown dialect unscrupulously, and he really can't be idle for a moment.
Li Zhi came out of the kitchen with a plate of black frozen autumn pears, consciously did the work of the hostess, and beckoned everyone in the room to sit around.
This frozen autumn pear is the way to eat in the Northeast in the past, put the pear outside to freeze the fruit, and finally become a big black ice mound, which can be used as a murder weapon.
Because there were no fresh fruits in the Northeast in the past winter, other fruits generally have to be frozen and frozen in winter, but pears can still be eaten after they are frozen. Not only can you eat it, but it also has a unique flavor. However, with the improvement of living standards, fresh fruits and vegetables can be eaten in winter, and fewer people will deliberately eat frozen pears to spend the winter.
This frozen autumn pear is generally made of white pear or Huagai pear, but the frozen autumn pear of Xiucheng is made of Nanguo pear, a specialty of Bohai Province, which is not so big, but the taste is very unique.
If you want to eat frozen autumn pears, you must first put the frozen pears like stones in the water, and you must put them in the water
Everyone sat around the sofa in the living room, and ate a few frozen autumn pears after eating hot pot in winter, which was really a fairy and a pleasure.
In the winter of December, it has already snowed heavily in Xiucheng. After more than ten years, such a view will never be seen again. I don't know if it's the cause of the greenhouse effect. Or is it a result of PM2.5. After entering the 21st century, there has never been ankle-heavy snow in the winter of Xiucheng. The kind of heavy snow that didn't reach the calf in the past. I really can only miss it.
It's not that it has just snowed heavily outside, and Zhou Shuo called several high-level executives of the Fanhan Group to his home. Everyone had a hot pot on the snowy scene.
After eating the hot pot, Pang Zhou's mouth couldn't be idle. I grabbed two frozen autumn pears and ate two bites, and the cold air was bubbling from the ice brain melon kernels, and everyone laughed from ear to ear.
Press the left arrow key on the "←" button on your keyboard to read the bonus portion of this chapter from the beginning.
"Don't you laugh, hey, if you have the ability, you can also go to the United States for a few years?" Pang Zhou shouted indignantly: "In the United States, that's not a life for people, it's meat, and if you want to eat vegetables, it's all about improving your life!" Usually fast food is bread and meat. The main meal is bread with meat, and the dinner is bread and roast, I'm easy! I finally returned to China, and what I ate was this hometown flavor! ”
Listening to Pang Zhou's complaints, everyone despised him. He is also the number one person in the United States, and he has billions of dollars of capital under his control, so he can't even afford to eat vegetables?
But if you want to talk about the frozen autumn pears of Nanguo pear jelly, it really can't be eaten. has been out for several years, and Pang Zhou is really homesick. This smell of homesickness.
Everyone also knew his mood, so they laughed a few words and then stopped their mouths. At this time, in Zhou Shuoxiucheng's home, it was snowing outside, but the villa was warm. If the nose has a keen sense of smell. You can also smell the smell of hot pot mixed with sesame street and leek flowers, which is obviously after a dinner party.
Pang Zhou hugged the frozen autumn pears and ate a few of them, and fiercely relieved his cravings. Only then did he exhale deeply.
"Master, how did you think of it back then? You want me to go to Australia and acquire the WIFI patent? ”
Pang Zhou scratched his head. Puzzled, he asked: "Back then, when Master had just made his first money from the Fengtian stock market, he actually took out two million and let me go to Australia by myself to find the one named John. Sullivan's man bought his high-frequency wireless network patent. That's 1994, two million good guys, enough for my salary for 50 years! (See Chapter 32 of the text for details)
"The current two million is enough for you to earn in one day, maybe it will be half a day's work." Li Jiufeng said enviously: "Hey, why didn't I work in a securities company in the first place, otherwise wouldn't it be me who is sitting here today to brag?" ”
Pang Zhou laughed proudly: "Ha, your Manager Li was already worth tens of millions that year, and you can still look at my small money of a few hundred yuan a month back then?" ”
"Master, tell me, how did you come up with the idea of acquiring the WIFI patent?"
"Hehe, it's nothing. When I was a student at Imperial Post, I happened to hear a professor introduce research in this area. I think it's a promising technology, and when I have money, I want to buy it. ”
"Uh, it's that simple?" Pang Zhouleng paused.
"It's as simple as that." Zhou Shuo walked over from the side of the bar with a glass of orange juice, and naturally shook his head and said, "At that time, I was giving you a task to see if you could do things." When I think of such a thing, I let you do it. ”
Of course, Zhou Shuo can't say that your master and I have been reborn after 20 years, and we have long known that WIFI patents are the biggest "leakage" in the world today. Ten years later, the Australian government's annual revenue from patents on WIFI is about 10 billion US dollars, to say the least.
And the level of WIFI technology itself is high enough. At that time, the IEEE, or Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, asked Australia to give up the WIFI patent in order to provide better conditions for the promotion of this technology. But the Australian government refused, not giving the IEEE any face.
What kind of organization is IEEE, it is an international association of electronic technology and information science engineers, and it is currently the world's largest non-profit professional and technical society! That's the organization of the world's top electrical and electronics engineers! It sets a standard that the whole world will bow down to.
But it was such an organization that asked for it, and the Australian government still did not agree to give up the WIFI patent. As a result, almost all electrical and telecommunications companies in the world, including but not limited to Apple, Intel, Dream, Dell, AT&T, Sony, Toshiba, Microsoft, Acer, Asus......
These giants, and the giants of the giants, have to obediently pay royalties to the Australian government.
Just think about it, if there is a better technology than WIFI. Will these capital giants willingly bow their heads? Australia is a pit disguised as a country. Why do the major electronics and telecommunications giants buy it?
It's really WIFI technology, and the effect is too good.
Zhou Shuo had to rush to the first time of rebirth. Just take this technology in your hands. Even if you can't use it for several years, it's better to hold it in your hand than to have an accident halfway.
Of course, Pang Zhou didn't know the inside story. But just by understanding the effect of the WIFI patent, it is enough to make him admire.
"Master deserves to be Master." Pang Zhou shook his head, raised his head and sighed: "If Australians know what kind of patent they have let go, they must regret their intestines." This patent alone allows the GSM Technology Standardization Alliance to give up a number of license exchange shares. And that's not even counting the fact that we're taking advantage of the Cisco crisis. Launched wireless routers to seize the market advantage ......"
"The GSM Technology Standardization Alliance is still discussing, and the matter of license share is not a sure thing." Zhou Shuo shook his head and chuckled: "If our asking price is too high, it is difficult to ensure that the Big Five will not put aside us to make our own set of standards." Historically, this kind of thing of not choosing the right one and only choosing one's own family has not happened uncommonly. The most important thing is to make WIFI become the de facto standard of wireless networks, and then promote the establishment of the WIFI Alliance. ”
"Hi. It's really depressing to have to take the initiative to share such good technology with those big companies. Pang Zhou patted his thigh and sighed uncontrollably: "If we can directly establish WIFI technology as an official standard." I'm afraid that just collecting patent fees can enjoy the treatment of the world's top 500. ”
"This is also no way, if the Pan Han Group has the status of Microsoft or Intel, of course it wants to do what it wants. Suffer a little loss during the promotion period. We'll be able to get it back sooner or later. If you want to enjoy the return without paying, how can there be such a good thing? Just thinking about eating alone. The end result is nothing to eat. ”
"Hehe, of course I know." Pang Zhou smiled embarrassedly. said weakly: "It's just that I want to give up the benefits in my hand, it's really a little angry." ”
"Okay, sooner or later, our Fanhan Group will have a day when you don't have to look at people's faces." Zhou Shuo sat on the sofa and said confidently: "As long as everyone works together, I believe that this day will come soon." ”
"Well said! With Mr. Zhou's words, we have a head! ”
Zhou Shuo followed the direction of the sound and looked out the door. From the snowy world outside, two people covered in snow pushed open the door and walked in.
"Tu Lao! Please come in, please come in, don't freeze you on this cold day. ”
"Hehe, my body is not so bad, at least I want to see the day you say!" Tu Anbei smiled and took off the black cashmere coat on his body, revealing the striped sweater inside. Whether it is physically or mentally, he is clearly younger than in previous years.
And the one who came in behind him was clearly the chief scientist who is now responsible for the research and development of the next-generation lithography machine system, smiling.
"Sister Fei is also here, have you been busy with work lately?" Li Zhi's eyes lit up when he saw the smile following Tu Anbei, ran over to help her hang up her clothes, and walked to the living room with her hand.
"Tu Lao is here!"
"Tu Lao is good!"
When the people in the house saw Tu Anbei, they also stood up and said hello. Today, Zhou Shuo invited almost all the high-level executives in Xiucheng, including Dongfang Ke, the general manager of the group, and Liu Gang, the director of the electronics factory. What is rare is that Liang Jinghui, the original high-ranking teacher, and Liu Guifang, the accountant, are also there, both of them are now supervisors of the group's board of supervisors, but their status is not low.
In addition, there are Xiao Huaidan, the manager of human resources of the group headquarters, and Manager Zhao of the public relations department, these two people are small experts in the lively atmosphere. Otherwise, let a group of high-level executives who used to be a technical nerd get together, and they have to talk about it and turn to work, and then they will be cold after talking about business.
And the big boss Pang Zhou and the small boss Lei Jun came to the Six Ears Fund, but Gao Mo unfortunately went to the imperial capital on a business trip. Ma Yougong, manager of Fanhan Optical Manufacturing, Yao Dao of the monocrystalline silicon factory, and Zhao Zigan of the quartz products factory also came to join in the fun.
In addition to the Pan Han Department and the Six Ears Department, Li Chiqi of the Wanda Department was also present. However, he knew that today's protagonist was not himself, but he didn't move too forward.
But no matter who was present, no matter what position he was in in the entire Pan-Han business empire, they all knew that Zhou Shuo's most important thing was definitely not himself, but Tu Anbei.
Although the Panhan Research Institute has the word Panhan, it is above the entire Panhan business empire. Tu Anbei, as the president of the Panhan Research Institute, is a person who even Zhou Shuo has to be respectful.
"Sit down, everyone." Tu Anbei pressed his hands and smiled with a red face. The other people are a little older, and they don't like to eat greasy, and they didn't eat hot pot before. When everyone finished eating, he rushed over in time. Although he was older than everyone here, Tu Anbei didn't look decadent than any of them.
Since sitting in the position of the dean of the Pan Han Research Institute, he can finally realize his long-standing ideals, and the happy event is simply the second spring of his life!
"Sit down." Zhou Shuo came over and sat down first, and everyone sat down with peace of mind. He glanced left and right, and said with a pleased smile: "I invite you to come today to discuss the future development direction of the group." We're not having a meeting, let's just think it's a casual chat. (To be continued......)
