Reborn American Giants

Chapter 123 Going out

"Actually, I have considered this idea of ​​yours," Victor waved to the girl next to him to pour him a glass of wine. Then, while stroking his chin, he said thoughtfully: "Your

I still understand the meaning, no matter what, it is for the benefit of all of us.

However, I really don’t have any good way to deal with this matter now. Besides, no one can tell how the situation will develop in the future.

Well, speaking from my own personal feelings, I still hope that I can see some beautiful things before my eyes. Two good guys who live and die together, working hard for everything without giving up, even if they die in the same year, the same month, and the same day.

In this case, when one of the parties closes their eyes, at least they won't feel any lack of friendship.

In other words, at the last moment of silence, I can say without regret: I blocked the wind and rain in front of me, but there is always a brother behind me..."

The girl was carrying a tray with two glasses of wine on it, and walked over gracefully. Victor was interrupted for a moment, took the wine glass and put it on the small wooden table aside, and then continued: "... But the reality is

It is often so cruel, it always likes to use the most unexpected facts to tell you what is unrealistic."

"Hey, since you know that such an idea is unrealistic, you shouldn't think too much about him." Turning his head, Bossano sighed: "True living together does exist, but dying together is

It's a myth. The so-called never-leaving-it only appears when one is in poverty.

Once the situation improves, the first thing people often think of is internal fighting.

After all, Amfilo is a standard politician, and after experiencing so many things, the credibility of these politicians is just a piece of stinky shit in my eyes. The selfish nature of human beings is fully demonstrated in this kind of people.

."

"Haha, then tell me," Victor let the beautiful woman reach out and knead the muscles on his shoulders, laughed, and said, "When are you going to betray me? Just like Amfilo betrayed Jose.

"

"Well, this problem is very serious. I have to think about it carefully," Bossano put on a serious and thoughtful expression. He stroked his chin and muttered: "I think maybe when you reach the position of Amfilo,

At this time, it should be the time for me to attack you..."

"Hahaha..." Bossano's words caused Victor to burst into laughter.

As a pair of partners who haven't been together for too long, but still understand each other fairly well, it was quite satisfying for Victor to hear such an answer from him.

He knew that Bolsano could go from a poor boy with no power in the slums to the position he has today. The United Press Group under his name controls 30% of the market share in El Salvador, which pushed him to achieve this.

Everything is not an ideal or a morality, but the kind of vigorous ambition that has existed in his heart for a long time.

Victor himself is such a person, so he knows that it is simply impossible to completely dispel the ambition of this harmful friend.

Therefore, my cooperation with him can only be a hesitation between caution and trust.

"Leave your back to your comrades," may sound exciting, but in reality, especially when you are in your own position, such a principle is absolutely unfeasible.

Because if you do that, the result will definitely not be boiling blood, but the highest probability will be bloodshed.

"Since you are so honest, let me tell you the truth," Victor finally stopped laughing. He waved the two girls away, and then gently touched Bossano's slightly bulging belly with his hand.

Pat, said: "Recently, I am preparing to go to the United States. Green Bay Bank has a new investment plan. I plan to invest a batch of funds to acquire a batch of domestic companies in the UK and the United States.

Recently I have been paying attention to the trends of Wang An Company, and according to the reports of the people I sent there, if there is no new capital injection in July, they will have to declare bankruptcy."

"Wang An Company?" Bossano was a little confused at first, and then quickly searched his mind for the information he needed. "You mean the Wang An Company in the United States? That company mainly develops computer word processors.

The direction of the company?”

"Not bad," Victor said with a smile. It's rare for Bossano to know about Wang An Company. To be honest, these emerging capitalists in El Salvador are rarely interested in foreign information. They are more interested in investing in their own acres.

They compete for interests in three-thirds of the land, but they rarely pay attention to the changes in the outside world. People have to lament the short-sightedness of these people, or it may be that they are satisfied with what they get at home. Therefore, Bossano does not know that Wang An Company

It's normal, but he knows that Victor will feel relieved.

"Why, why are you suddenly interested in the computer industry?" Bossano asked in shock, "As far as I know, the prospects of this industry are not very promising. Just look at the current market situation.

, those large-scale computer companies created by the Americans are basically struggling to survive, and they have more or less operational difficulties.

Moreover, this thing has a large investment, low return rate, long cycle, and quite high risk. Moreover, Wang An Company is now a mud pit. Others are afraid of avoiding it, but you still want to jump into it. So in my opinion,

You'd better not touch this thing."

The poor market situation in Bossano's words is due to the sudden outbreak of the "second oil crisis", which has caused all major European and American countries to fall into severe economic stagflation, with massive overproduction and the collapse of banks and enterprises.

It has set a record since World War II. The average unemployment rate in capitalist society has reached about 9.1%. This crisis has affected various industries in the United States, and computer companies are no exception.

Wang An Company is now a behemoth with more than 30,000 employees and annual sales of US$2.35 billion. IBM once felt threatened. In 1975, Wang An Company launched the world's first computer with editing and retrieval functions.

word processor.

This word processor can display text directly on the screen and quickly modify the document using the keyboard. This gave office clerks in the United States a great liberation. In the past, they were tied to a machine that had not been updated for decades and was worth only a few hundred dollars.

In front of a US dollar typewriter, the work tasks were heavy but inefficient, and I often complained endlessly.

According to media reports at the time, Thomas Watson Jr., the head of IBM, who was being treated in the hospital at the time, read the news in the newspaper and loudly scolded the people around him, "How could this happen? Why didn't you tell me earlier!" After that,

Passed out on the spot.

This word processor was so popular from the White House to companies and institutional offices that it almost triggered an office revolution. As a result, Wang An's company achieved unprecedented development at that time, and he personally earned a lot of wealth, with a total of US$2 billion.

personal wealth, becoming the fifth richest man in the United States.

However, due to the economic crisis sweeping the world and some investment decisions made within Wang An Company, the most important strategy is to turn to the development of open personal computers compatible with IBM, or to continue to develop its own series of personal computers and corresponding software.

Among them, Wang An firmly chose the latter.

He believes that Wang An's company has always been firmly established in the market with its personal products. More importantly, once customers buy your hardware, they must also buy your software, which should bring more profits to the company.

This led to the fact that when IBM launched its first personal PC in 1981, it could run more than 100 kinds of software, but Wang An's personal computer did not have any other software that could run it.

In this competition with IBM, Wang An chose a wrong path and had to swallow the bitter pill himself.

In 1983, the company began to suffer losses for the first time in ten years since its establishment, and also carried out its first layoffs. According to financial reports disclosed to the outside world, Wang An Company once again lost US$424 million in fiscal year 1984, and its stock price

It also plummeted, from the peak of $43 to around $23.
