Blooming America

Kara Santo knocked on the door.

　　 "Please come in."

　　 Then, he walked in.

　　 "Hello, Miss Edson."

　　 The other party said hello first.

"Hello there."

　　 Catherine also smiled.

　　 "I think you have read the script."

　　 The other nodded.

　　 "The script is very good, especially the ending, it feels like a surprise. But I haven't met Mr. Stallone...but Mr. Bruce Lee is really suitable for making this film."

　　 Catherine nodded.

　　 "What do you think of this film?"

　　 Catherine continued to ask.

　　 Cara Santo provided some insights about the film.

"The special forces members mentioned in your script should be well-trained, but on the other hand, this is not just a realistic film, so we may need more additional props, and possibly even Need a lot of special effects..."

　　 "Yes, what I want to show is the world's technology a little closer to the future."

　　 Kara Santo nodded.

　　 "But, what about the heroine?"

　　 "Uh...I didn't think about it, do you have any comments?"

　　 Catherine asked.

　　 Kara Santo also frowned.

　　 Indeed, this is a serious problem.

　　 The choice of the heroine is very important.

　　 But... who are you looking for?

　　 After thinking for a long time, Cara Santo has no good candidates. After all, there are still a minority of women acting in action movies. Although I don't say no, but I want to find a suitable one, and there are still schedules, really not much.

　　 Then, Cara Santo suddenly looked at Catherine, and he suddenly looked more and more pleasing to his eyes.

"you."

"I?"

　　 Catherine pointed to herself.

　　 The other party nodded.

　　 "You are a good fit, tall, uh... just a little thinner, but you can do it after putting on makeup."

　　 It is true that Catherine has fair skin and a smaller skeleton, but Catherine has a dance foundation...maybe it's okay. And Catherine was once the protagonist.

"I will think about it."

　　 Catherine could only say so at last.

　　 After all, her whole body is still locked.

　　 Then, Catherine looked at the letter again.

　　 Elvis did not reply to Catherine. The other party seemed to be hesitating. Catherine was going to continue to send out an invitation letter to the other party.

　　 She doesn't care how much direct benefit the other party can bring to herself, but cares about the popularity that the other party can bring to her.

　　 While Catherine was busy, his father suddenly came in.

　　 Seeing Catherine here, he was also taken aback.

　　 After all, this is Bruce's office.

　　 "Dad, what did the Pentagon tell you?" Catherine asked first.

　　 "It's nothing, just talked about the future prospects of computer development, my head is big...what are you doing here?"

　　 "Handle some things... I'm the big boss!"

　　 Catherine said of course.

　　 "Tell me everything~ Dad~"

　　 Catherine looked at each other with a smile.

　　 "This has nothing to do with you, Kate... okay."

　　Bruce sighed.

　　 "The Pentagon asked us about the prospects of the computer industry. The computer industry will have a comprehensive and large-scale development. It will be universal."

　　He paused.

"Then they asked me about the use of computers in the military industry. I think this is probably what they are most concerned about. Computers will have an impact on the military and industry in all aspects, fully automated production, and automated warfare. It’s the subject of the future... I can only say so much."

"and then?"

　　 Catherine asked eagerly.

　　 "Then, they seem to be very interested in it, but unfortunately, they seem to think that the size of our company...er...a bit small."

　　 Hearing what her father said, Catherine nodded in agreement.

　　 Indeed, compared with IBM, my company is not qualified at all.

　　 But there is no problem. DreamWorks has already received tens of millions of dollars. Coupled with the profitability of companies such as Blizzard, Catherine can use about 100 million US dollars. Of course, because buying a house in Manhattan, there are still about 80 million available.

　　 She immediately made a decision.

　　—Acquisition of DEC.

　　 DEC, which is the digital equipment company.

　　 DEC company was born in 1957. At the beginning of 1958, the first batch of products-digital laboratory and digital system components were shipped. The first year's sales were 94,000 US dollars, and the company made a little profit, although very little. In 1962, DEC's fifth fiscal year, the company's sales were 6.5 million U.S. dollars and net profit was 800,000 U.S. dollars; in 1963, DEC made a profit of 1.2 million U.S. dollars; in 1964, sales rose to 11 million U.S. dollars, but profits Decrease to 900,000 U.S. dollars. DEC company is under development, capital is tight, and expenditure exceeds income. In June 1963, DEC company needed a sum of cash to borrow 300,000 US dollars from ARD company, which was paid off in three years...

　　 Although this is the case now.

　　 However, this is a dragon diving in the deep. When the PDP-11 was released in the 1970s, UU reading www.uukanshu.com DEC would soar into the sky, the scenery was the same for the time being, and even IBM had to avoid its edge.

　　 However, it flourished and declined, and the company was eventually acquired by HP.

　　 DEC, is Catherine's goal.

　　 With DEC, it means that until the 1980s, I had the qualification to challenge IBM!

　　 At the same time, I can also enhance my strength in computers and win the trust of the Pentagon.

　　 And DEC also has a strong man. For Catherine, this man is as important as Seymour Cray who created the Cray vector machine.

　　 You must know that the other party is not only a manager, but also a technician, he is also the founder of the famous "matrix" production model.

　　His name is Olson.

　　 The so-called "matrix" means that a manager is responsible for a production line and is fully responsible for production, sales and marketing; his responsibility is to make money, whether it is profit or loss, the responsibility belongs to him, and he is responsible for everything.

　　 Olsen’s "Matrix" is a huge revolution in the history of product production.

　　 It is precisely because of this that Olsen's DEC escaped the company's declining situation in 1965 and turned the tide.

　　 From 1963 to 1964, Olsen’s company production began to go from bad to worse, and profits fell sharply. In particular, it was in a difficult situation because of the impact of Catherine's castrated version of Wenquxing who approved the computer skin.

　　 This time is the best time to acquire Olsen’s DEC!

　　 Olsen paid a lot. If she throws an olive branch to the other party at this time, she believes that the other party will not refuse at all.

　　 Especially when I can still pay a big price...
