Chapter 124 Business Matters (Part 2)

While Catherine was busy making adjustments within the company, a person came to her.

This person is none other than Seymour Clay, whom Catherine has been waiting for for a long time.

"Mr. Clay, welcome. I think you have made a decision."

Catherine went straight to the point.

"Yes...but to be honest, I really didn't expect that the programmer I have been corresponding with for so long would be a genius. What's even more incredible is that this is the first time we have officially met."

Indeed, the two have been exchanging letters for a long time, and Seymour Clay also gave Catherine a lot of help with computers.

"Yes, you really helped me a lot regarding the C language. But I think your research on supercomputers is much better than this."

"Yes, supercomputers have always been my pursuit," Clay said.

"so--"

Catherine handed over the contract, which had been prepared for a long time.

According to the contract, Seymour Clay will become Intel's technical director, with an annual salary of US$800,000 and 2% of Intel's shares.

Don't underestimate these 2% shares. Because of the merger with Dec Company and years of development, these 2% shares are comparable to Sanders' 5%. Of course, because of Dec Company's acquisition,

It was Catherine who acquired it. Sanders's equity was diluted and now only accounts for just over 3%. Catherine holds more than 90% of the shares.

"The treatment seems pretty good." Clay smiled.

Indeed, this contract is indeed very superior to Clay.

Catherine entrusted the research of supercomputers to Cray. For Seymour Cray, his career was all about computers. There was no job that could make him feel happier than this.

"Yes, only you deserve this treatment."

Catherine smiled.

"I think I will be happy to accept this job." Seymour Clay finally gave Catherine an answer.

"I'm calling Sanders now. I think he will definitely welcome you."

Catherine was in a good mood, and the father of supercomputers was also taken under her wing.

Fixing Seymour Cray means that the supercomputer project can be accelerated, and with the z80 in hand, Catherine is confident that she can build her own supercomputer within a year!

In addition to Seymour Clay, what Catherine values ​​​​is the "Eight Rebels" of Fairchild Company. Now, three people are already in contact with Intel. Fairchild Company is destroying the Great Wall. It is no wonder that Catherine is poaching.

Catherine believes that as long as these three people join Intel, the "Eight Rebels" will soon begin to gradually leave Fairchild. What history has proven cannot be false. Moreover, the parent company will not take away Fairchild's profits.

, which has already chilled all those employees.

The poaching thing is still in the plan. This matter can only be done step by step. There is no rush. Just like Seymour Clay, this matter will slowly fall into place.

Then, Catherine continued to revamp the company.

What Catherine has in hand now is the financial report of DreamWorks - "Red Alert" brought DreamWorks more than 100 million yuan in revenue!

The key to the matter lies in the Far East.

——On May 14, a bomber equipped with an atomic bomb took off from an airport in northwest China and flew over the test site. The pilot successfully achieved an air explosion as planned. This was the second atomic bomb explosion test conducted by China.

Then, "simple" and "poor" Americans began to develop "rich" associations.

Maybe it's persecutory paranoia, or maybe it's too strong divergent thinking. In short, "nuclear" is a hot word now.

Catherine thought about whether to bring some new gimmicks to the Cold War, such as "Resident Evil" or something...

But while Catherine was thinking about DreamWorks, Olson, who had just been transferred to the position of president of Apple, hurried over.

"Olson, what's going on with the Xbox plan? I want to hear your opinion."

"Xbox is definitely an extremely successful product of the company, but I think now may not be the time to think about this. Look at this -"

What Olson took out was a financial report.

As soon as Catherine got it, she realized something was wrong.

"Why has performance declined so sharply?"

Catherine was startled.

In the past month, the number of people buying GameTV has suddenly dropped by more than half!

"Has gametv been blocked?" Catherine asked.

"Actually, it's because of this."

Olson took out another form.

Here are the prices of various brands of TVs on the market.

The reason is very clear. Companies led by BCA, General Electric Company and Westinghouse Electric began to reduce prices on a large scale. At the same time, a large number of Japanese TV sets entered the market, which had a serious impact on the TV market.

.

Catherine immediately paid attention to it.

This matter cannot be taken carelessly.

The market share in TV sets is directly related to Catherine’s future triple play plan.

Catherine asked: "The other party has joined forces with Japanese companies?"

Olson nodded.

Obviously, the other party made a very wise decision.

"Japan..." Catherine began to think about this country that began to rise gradually after World War II and then became the world's second largest economy.

But soon, Catherine thought of the country where she was now - the United States.

For Japan, the United States is really behind the scenes, with various technical supports and various profit-making measures in the market. If you exclude regular sheep shearing and welfare for girls (you know), the United States is truly worthy of being the "Dad Country"

The title, and it is simply a model of communism!

Of course, the United States is an alliance of capital, and they have never looked down upon Japan. With the Plaza Accord, the Americans have robbed Japan of all the fruits of decades of economic development.

The reason why they join forces with Japanese companies to fight against Apple and Ark is largely because these American companies know that Japanese companies will be tragic sooner or later, but if Catherine becomes big, she will become a lingering shadow. When Japan

When companies are knocked down, these companies cannot last long.

Fortunately, Catherine's company is not listed. If her company were to be listed now, it would probably encounter strong resistance in the stock market.

Catherine thought for a moment.

A price war?

No, although our own momentum is very strong, if there is a price war, the other party can definitely use various means to drag down gametv.

"Olson, do you have any ideas?"

Catherine suddenly almost forgot about the new president of Apple.

Now, it’s time to see what the other person thinks.

Singapore is equipping soldiers with iPads... It seems that the development of radiation computers will be accelerated?
