"Project dividends?" Woz asked, "How?" ”

"I'm not good at deciding on this for the time being, it should be divided according to profits, but it must also have a certain market share, and then close it once a year, what do you think?" Chen Zhiwen said again.

"Okay, I'll mix a 5 million annual salary first, no matter what the project says, it won't be decided so quickly anyway." Wads laughed.

"Okay, you join the company first, understand the situation of Midea computer in today's market, and then decide on the project." Chen Zhiwen nodded and said.

Chen Zhiwen is not clear about how to operate the computer industry, especially the computers in the 80s, which are completely different from later generations. In the early days of Midea's launch of the computer, relying on the split design, it also won great praise and a certain market, but the split is just a concept, just like a car has 4 tires, there is no way to register a patent, and other companies have imitated this idea after seeing it, as long as it is not the same as Midea in terms of design.

The follow-up competition is to look at the technical quality, advertising and marketing, price and terminal channels of all parties, with Costco, Wal-Mart and Best Buy electronic retail supermarket that has been expanding, Midea's sales are still good, but it can only be said to be good, far from a very successful level.

According to the barrel principle, the biggest shortcoming of Midea is the computer hardware itself, and even if it weren't for Midea's own software word three-piece set, computer games are cheaper or even free on Midea's computer, there may not be the current results, it is really this market, some similar to the 11-15 years of the smartphone market, fast upgrading, many players, want to become the king level, it is a test of the company's comprehensive strength.

Hong Kong's IT power, making radios is OK, computers are far behind, can only rely on the United States, however, can preside over a computer project research and development talents, the United States is rare, Watts is also one of them, although Apple's computers have failed in the past two years, but Watts should also be able to gain a lot of experience from it.

"Okay." Woz thought for a while and said: "Eric, when I was at Apple, there were many capable people who left for some reasons, and there are many capable ones, I think you can also hire them, many of them have also participated in Apple's new computer project, and they are very good talents." ”

"No problem, you're the project leader, you have the final say in recruiting people, where are they now?" Chen Zhiwen asked.

Apple has a strong aura in the early days, therefore, it has also attracted a lot of talents to join, and in the recruitment of talents, it is much stronger than the beauty of foreign capital.

And in Apple, which has thousands of employees, can stand out and become a responsible member of the computer research and development project, the strength is absolutely speechless, and being able to contradict the founder of Jobs is also a proof of ability, because if the level is lower, it is estimated that he is not qualified to communicate with the company's founder + major shareholders, let alone contradict.

In this way, the talents who have been screened are estimated to be popular in any company.

"Some are at IBM, and some are at Texas Instruments or HP or the like, I will contact them, but their current job should not be bad, and if I want them to come to the United States, I estimate that the salary will be a little more." Wolds said.

"That's fine." Chen Zhiwen nodded and said, the value of these people is not only themselves, but they have all worked together in Apple and are familiar with each other, which is very important for a company, which can reduce a lot of unnecessary run-in time, similar to poaching a team from another company at one time, if you want to do this, you have to pay a lot of price, and the salary increase is just the most basic.

"Well, I'll join the company again in a while, and it's a big deal to invite them to the United States, and I'll go to them for an interview in person." Wolds said.

"Haha, Wads, what are you talking about, you go and invite them, of course it's a job, from tomorrow, even if you are hired, I won't be less than you in the salary." Chen Zhiwen said with a smile, the annual salary of 5 million US dollars is almost 20,000 US dollars a day, but this money is nothing to Midea, as long as Woz and the team he can form in the future can develop a new computer for Midea, not to mention the explosion, as long as you have certain achievements, you can easily earn back dozens of times the profit.

"It's fine." Wads didn't care, before he left Apple, he also cashed out the shares in his hands, and now he is worth hundreds of millions, and the annual salary of $5 million is indeed very high in the United States, but he doesn't care very much, and for Chen Zhiwen, who is more valuable, he won't take it seriously.

Chen Zhiwen didn't give it, he didn't want it, and if he did, he didn't refuse, because there was no need to waste time saying too much for such a little money.

"Okay, you also know Mark, the person in charge of Midea in the United States, he will be responsible for the operation of this part in the future, you will be in charge of technology, just develop new computers with peace of mind, what resources are needed, just talk to Mark." Chen Zhiwen said again.

His company, even if it is internationalized, will basically use local people to be responsible for related businesses, such as Midea and Red Bull's branches in the United States, the heads are Americans, because they will be more familiar with the American business environment and make accurate judgments, and the Chinese in the branch are only in an auxiliary position, or to a certain extent, to form a balance, after all, it is not possible to completely let the Americans control the entire branch.

When the company grows larger, he doesn't care what nationality his employees are, as long as it can bring the greatest benefit to himself.

“OK。” Wads nodded, thought for a moment and asked, "Are you going to meet Jobs in Los Angeles this time?" ”

"I don't have this plan at the moment, how can I say that Midea and Apple are also competitors, Jobs is not having a good time with Apple now, and it is no good to meet me, besides, there is nothing wrong with itself, why bother meeting." Chen Zhiwen shook his head and said.

Jobs single-handedly created Apple, but in order to develop rapidly, he also introduced multiple capitals and lost his controlling stake, but it is generally not a problem, because people who can build a company from beginning to end and develop it can be said to be a business elite, plus they will also be major shareholders + have a high prestige, and ordinary investors are just to make money, so most of the founders can manage the entire company with peace of mind.

But Jobs is obviously not, he led the computer research and development failure for several years in a row, costing the company hundreds of millions of dollars, which has made him ostracized within the company, but he still can't recognize the reality, and put the blame on the CEO Scully he poached from Pepsi, which led to more contradictions, and eventually led to his own kickout.

After Jobs was kicked out of Apple, his life is also quite legendary, in the original history, he also took the route of animation computer development, and also cooperated a lot with Disney, and may have a relationship with Chen Zhiwen in the future, but that is also in the future, now, there is no need for the two to meet.

"Yes, it's just a pity for Apple, I really hope it can become the world's top company." Woxz sighed.

"How can it be so easy for people to live in this world, and it is very good that Apple can develop to the scale it is today." Chen Zhiwen said with a light smile that although the technology industry is easy to give birth to giants, behind each giant are thousands of bankrupt companies of different sizes, and Midea is an exception, it is the product of Chen Zhiwen's prophetic golden finger.

"Well, that's all I have to do to take one step at a time." Wox said with a smile.

After staying at Woz's house for a while, several people also made a BBQ Chinese meal in the backyard of the villa.

After leaving, the two got on the pick-up convoy, and Liu Xiaoli asked, "Is this Woz very powerful?" ”

"Of course, the wealth he can bring me is at least a billion dollars, which is more powerful than some blockbuster games." Chen Zhiwen smiled and said.

"It's unimaginable." Liu Xiaoli said: "In China, it is inconceivable that some people who do business can become 10,000 yuan households. ”

"The current technology industry in the United States is basically the last batch of opportunities to start a business in the Western world, but unlike the mainland, there is gold everywhere, as long as you have the courage and vision, you can make a fortune in any industry." Chen Zhiwen said.

"One last chance?" Liu Xiaoli asked.

"Yes, in traditional industries, ordinary people don't have a chance, and occasionally succeeding may be a very rare genius." Chen Zhiwen replied.

"That seems right, and it's the same in Hong Kong." Liu Xiaoli nodded and said that she has been in Hong Kong for a while, and she has a basic understanding of Hong Kong society.

"Almost, basically no chance in the future." Chen Zhiwen said with a smile, in the original history, Hong Kong giants started from scratch after 80 years, and there was only one big Liu, I have to say that this guy is really powerful, but now the world's fans, Midea controls a small half, and I don't know if Da Liu can still rely on the fan to start, but with his ability, even if he can't be a fan, he should be able to think of other ways to earn the first pot of gold.

"Where are we going now?" Liu Xiaoli asked again.

"Go and watch basketball." Chen Zhiwen laughed.

"Basketball? That basketball team you bought in the United States? Liu Xiaoli asked, Chen Zhiwen had also told her before that he had bought a team in the United States.

"yes, in Los Angeles too." Chen Zhiwen said that another advantage of buying the Lakers is that it is in Los Angeles, where there are many other subsidiaries or businesses, which is very convenient.

Half an hour later, the team arrived at the Lakers' training site, and at this moment, the Lakers' coach and some players were already waiting outside.

Jordan is also among them, and Chen Zhiwen is also in official contact with him for the first time.

"Hello Jordan, I've watched your game, it's been great, and I think soon, you'll be the best player in the whole of America." Chen Zhiwen shook hands with a smile and said.

"Thank you, boss." Jordan also said very politely.

He is also very confident in his skills, but he also knows that no matter how good basketball is, it is just a game of capital, and the owner of his Lakers team is a very large capital.

"Work hard, succeed, you can not only get honors, but also get a lot of business endorsements, I have a lot of brands, I am waiting for an international superstar to come as a spokesperson, I hope this person can be you." Chen Zhiwen said with a light smile.

"Thank you, I will definitely complete this goal sooner." Jordan said solemnly that winning the NBA championship is also his dream.

"Boss, please come inside." Head coach Michael also said with a smile, and at the same time glanced at Jordan again, and sighed in his heart, being valued so much by the boss, as long as the strength is not too vegetable, the future is absolutely unlimited, even if the technology is not in place, it is estimated that there will be no less endorsements, not to mention Jordan's level and potential, so that he, a coach who has been engaged in a lifetime, is shocked.

"Okay, let's go inside." Chen Zhiwen nodded.

Inside the stadium, there are still a lot of people training, not everyone is qualified to go out to pick up the boss, even if the boss comes in, he will not be introduced, and if he doesn't get the main player, he is not qualified.

However, coach Michael was still beside Chen Zhiwen and introduced some of the people on the scene, especially the 3 Chinese players, which were specially selected according to Chen Zhiwen's requirements to have some potential.

At the same time, all the main players also got off the field one after another, and came to an internal confrontation to show all their strength in front of the boss.

Jordan even showed amazing strength, a series of slam dunks, and Chen Zhiwen almost wanted to scream when he watched it.

Coach Michael on the side said: "Jordan's physical fitness and ball skills are now almost the top in the United States, but he still lacks experience in the finals, especially in the finals, and lost in this area in May, but even so, his level is enough to give any top NBA player a headache." ”

"So, in the playoffs next year, we'll be more sure?" Chen Zhiwen asked with a smile. In this year's playoffs, the Lakers won the Western Conference championship, but the championship still lost, this result is already very good, not bad Chen Zhiwen wants the championship, and even several consecutive championships.

"I'm sure." Michael said that he could not be absolutely sure, and God would not dare to make such a promise.

"Well, just continue to train, and in addition, those Chinese players will also be trained and cultivated." Chen Zhiwen also said that the NBA will be a popular sport in the mainland in the future, in addition to Jordan, he also needs to train some Chinese players, because in this way can Chinese and even Asians have a sense of substitution, but whether they can be cultivated to the level of "Yao Ming" still depends on their strength, and it is useless to praise it if the strength is too poor.

"Okay." Michael agreed.
