Reborn in Hong Kong: The Tycoon Grows Up

Robert Calvin's frequent appearances in Hollywood recently are not without purpose, and media reporters have photographed him many times. As for what to do, they are all men, so they know it without even thinking about it. But this is a private matter after all, and no one has the right to interfere.

Despite the overwhelming media coverage, all Americans knew about it at this time. Bao Zixuan said today that he heard from internal employees of Motorola, which is obviously a white lie. Anyone who is smart knows that you cannot arrange the current boss in front of a boss. That's a way to cut yourself off, and Motorola doesn't have such stupid employees.

Now that Bao Zixuan had given him the chance, Robert Calvin pretended to be angry and said: "That bastard actually dared to arrange for me. It seems that I have to deal with these guys when I go back. It's really lawless. In the past, Hollywood was for investment in the film and television industry and had nothing to do with anything else. "

After Robert Calvin finished speaking, Mr. Bao and Old Moore both laughed, which relieved the embarrassing situation.

Calling himself Robert makes the relationship seem closer, and this place is also the White House. Falling out is not good for everyone, and there is nothing to argue with a traitor. In the eyes of the children of the aristocratic family, Gordon Moore is still not enough.

Of course, it would be another matter if Intel dominates the CPU industry in the 21st century. At this time, it is still far behind Motorola.

At this time, a man came to see Gordon Moore. The president wanted to discuss something. Even if Old Moore was claiming to be aloof, he would not dare not give Reagan face.

At this time, only Bao Zixuan and Robert Calvin are left. They have a good foundation for cooperation before, and talking about things does not have to be as strenuous as with Gordon Moore.

Bao Zixuan: "Robert, do you want Motorola to enter new areas of development?"

When I heard Bao Zixuan talk about the new field, it must be related to the upgrade of ARPANET. Otherwise, I wouldn’t be talking about it now, and the two of them still communicate a lot in private.

Robert Calvin said with a smile: "Do you have any good ideas? Could it be related to the upgrade of ARPANET? Everyone wants to enter new areas for development, which means there is unlimited room for development."

"But you never do business at a loss. Every gain must come with a loss. We must give up part of our share in the supply of Heiyun chips!"

It's good to deal with smart people, at least you don't have to speak too bluntly, and you don't have to be so tired.

Bao Zixuan: "We are friends, and Motorola has always cooperated harmoniously with Heiyun Group. But in the field of CPUs, especially the new generation of chips, Motorola has completely fallen behind. Heiyun's latest industrial computers may need to make changes. The functions of the chip are simply not enough.”

"PCs will continue to purchase Motorola products, but if we don't make changes, we can't guarantee the future."

"In fact, everyone knows that Motorola does not have any advantage in the CPU field. Intel has too many technical geniuses, and at least three of its founders are great experts and good R\u0026D experts."

"Instead of fighting to the death, it is better to work intensively in other fields. ARPANET actually requires not only advanced industrial computers, but also the equipment that links the computers together. In addition, who can control these computers should not be underestimated."

"The two of us can definitely do more in this area, and the profit will be no lower than that of producing chips, or even higher. After all, doing a separate business is much better than competing chips."

In the field of integrated circuits, Robert Galvin also knew Motorola's shortcomings. It is not in line with the core interests of the established American capital families to allow companies established by some traitors to develop and grow. I heard what Bao Zixuan said today, maybe it was because I was too entangled before and thought about the problem in a bit extreme way.

Robert Galvin: "You're saying Motorola can make multiprotocol routers and fiber optic cables."

Bao Zixuan doesn't know whether it is right or wrong to ask Motorola to reduce its investment in the CPU field. However, Heiyun Group will not give up. Even if it does not mass produce, it will still make corresponding technical reserves. This is about the future development pattern and has nothing to do with how much money is spent.

If Motorola doesn't make chips, it will always produce other chips. The factory could not be left idle, as Robert Calvin would certainly not agree.

Bao Zixuan: "The upgrade of ARPANET is a big project; not only industrial computers, routers and optical cables, but also who owns these industrial computers. Industrial computers are used together and are what we usually call servers."

"Since ARPANET wants to face the whole world, it definitely needs a main root server and several auxiliary root servers. These servers will not be placed in enterprises, which will cause a lot of trouble. Major universities are the best choice. If If Motorola wants to have a say, it must have a secondary root server."

"The main root server is not very realistic. To be precise, the only choice is between Stanford and MIT. The University of Chicago can definitely strive for a secondary root server. I believe this is the best result for Motorola."

"Heiyun is a Hong Kong company after all, and I am not an American. Some important equipment will definitely not be produced by Heiyun Group. Only American high-tech companies can gain trust."

"Heiyun Group can license the patents and technology of multi-protocol routers and fiber optic cables to Motorola for production. Europe and the United States and other countries will be handed over to Motorola, and Heiyun will be responsible for other places."

"As for the patent royalties, we can negotiate. For business that is destined to be lost, it is better to benefit our own people than to benefit outsiders."

Robert Calvin was a little scared when he heard that there were so many technical issues involved. I really should have brought someone with technical knowledge here today, as I almost made a mistake. Without Bao Zixuan’s reminder, Motorola might not even be able to drink soup.

The University of Chicago owns a secondary root server, which is no different than Motorola. The two families are not only close to each other, but also cooperate very closely. The University of Chicago is known as the cradle of Motorola talent, which shows how close it is.

As for multi-protocol routers and fiber optic cables, Motorola still has no issues producing them. And as Bao Zixuan said, this is a unique business. Europe dare not say that Motorola has a natural advantage in the US market.

Suddenly it occurred to me that something was wrong, this kid might not be so kind. Motorola will not gain advantage in vain. The initiative at this time is in the hands of Heiyun.

Robert Galvin: "It shouldn't be that simple. What does Motorola have to pay?"

Bao Zixuan: "Motorola doesn't have to pay anything. I just hope it won't be embarrassed on the auxiliary root server."

Now Robert Calvin fully understands that this guy is cooperating with Intel for the purpose of auxiliary root servers. Is this thing really that important?

He doesn't understand computer-related technologies, but Bao Zixuan definitely understands. Being able to take such a fancy to a auxiliary root server speaks volumes. This guy has never made a loss-making business, and it is probably the same this time.

It was just an exchange of interests, and Robert Calvin did not refuse. The top priority is to find the director of the Department of Computer Science at the University of Chicago. Motorola must take action and show a positive attitude so that the University of Chicago can go all out.

Thinking about it, Robert Calvin did not make any stops; he came directly to Professor Leonard, the chairman of the Computer Department of the University of Chicago.

Seeing Robert Calvin's expression, Leonard was a little confused. This old guy has always looked down on scholars like them. Although he respects them on the surface, he can't deceive people at all. What happened today? Is there any conspiracy here?

Robert Calvin called Professor Leonard aside and said: "Professor Leonard, you should know something about the ARPANET upgrade. What do you think about this matter, or what Motorola and the University of Chicago should do. "

What happened to this old boy today? How could he ask such a strange question? Could it be that he wanted to get involved? He didn't look like that kind of person.

As the chairman of the Computer Science Department at the University of Chicago, Leonard is an authoritative figure in the computer field. Of course I know about the ARPANET upgrade, but it involves so much professional knowledge that I really don’t know how to explain it to Robert Galvin. So he tentatively said, "Mr. Calvin wants to join in. This is a good thing!"

Robert Galvin was certainly not satisfied with Leonard's answer. This is because he looks down on him and knows that he does not understand technology. But for the sake of business and the future of Motorola, I can only endure it for now.

Robert Galvin: "The upgrade of ARPANET requires a large number of servers. Including a main root server and several auxiliary root servers. The main root server will definitely choose between MIT and Stanford."

"But the University of Chicago is fully capable and able to fight for the auxiliary root server. I believe it will be of great benefit to the improvement of the computer science major at the University of Chicago."
