The Goddess Shines on America

"If the company is really established, it will be a business with a surprisingly high operating profit. You don't plan to make it bigger?"

Hearing Bosac's words, Alice's astonishment could no longer be described in words. God knows, Cisco Systems is facing a market of hundreds of billions of dollars, and the Internet construction of the whole world needs to purchase equipment such as routers and switches. But now, the historical founder said that he does not intend to make the company bigger! ?

"Of course, Sandy and I are just ordinary teachers after all."

Looking at the charming sunset outside the window, although Bosac is still wearing a neat suit, in Alice's eyes at this moment, he seems to be very old: "If we really develop the company too much, how can we do it?" Can it be managed? Isn’t it interesting to have a small and medium-sized enterprise with a good scale, sell routers for nothing, push products that affect human change to the world, and then sit on the sofa and watch the world change cheerfully?”

After saying this, Bosack even grinned at Alice.

Under the glamorous sunset outside the window, a wave of literature and art emerges spontaneously.

Well, in theory it does.

Alice gritted her teeth and thought.

But Miss Ben is not as enlightened as you!

With a net worth of 30 to 50 billion US dollars, but only drives a small Alto and eats hamburgers all day long?

Zuckerberg's family training is to be frugal, and I am not!

Alice knows the future social development trend better than anyone else, let Cisco, the founder of the dignified Internet world, only exist as an ordinary small and medium-sized enterprise, how can it be possible! ?

"But you two, now is the time for the great development of the computer industry."

She rubbed her temples vigorously and said, "Look, in the few months before and after, I invented the router, and Mr. Iger is also researching this thing. What about other schools and enterprises? It will probably take seven or eight years, and the whole Similar companies will bloom everywhere in Silicon Valley, right?"

"We are one step ahead now. After all, Stanford is the cradle of the entire Silicon Valley. Yige has just started research. It is estimated that other scientific research institutions will not make much progress. It would be a pity if we do not seize this opportunity to make the company bigger. Yet?"

She glanced at James, who had been with him so intimately throughout the afternoon, even Oscar couldn't bear to go out to play and didn't leave.

At this moment, seeing his daughter asking for help, he stood up.

"For a well-developed enterprise, the lifespan is calculated in years, and no one knows what the future will be like. Therefore, Mr. Bosack's words may have been said earlier, but Weiwei, you don't have to be so anxious, we are not Have you registered your company yet?"

As he said that, taking advantage of Bosac and Sandy's eye contact, James also winked at Alice, signaling her to calm down.

Well, makes sense.

After a little excitement, Alice did calm down.

She was really anxious. She recalled that in the history of Cisco's development, the Bosacks, as the founders, did not intend to make the company bigger.

If I remember correctly, it seems that Santee only intends to position the company's annual revenue at 10 million US dollars, which is the ultimate goal.

When the gap between ideals and reality widens, that is, when Cisco's development far exceeds the expectations of the couple, it seems that it has been 89 or 90 years. Then, coupled with various other reasons, they were directly kicked out of the company they founded by the board of directors, which can be said to be a fairly typical case.

Now that I am anxious about their thoughts, it is indeed too worrying.

"Business? Oh, you plan to start a business?"

At this time, Ige suddenly raised his head from a pile of computers and looked around blankly: "Santi, are you planning to start a business? Are you working with dear Alice?"

Alice blinked. For this guy who was more dazed than Chen Jingrun, she never expected him to have a high EQ from the beginning.

Not to set up a business, did this lady come here with her family to go shopping?

"Yeah, Bill, the development prospects of this router are too broad."

Santee’s Chanel suit is neat and clean. Even after a full day’s work, like Bosack’s suit, it is not stained with much dust: “Didn’t Alice also analyze it, and it can definitely be used by all schools and enterprises If you use it, driven by them, the computer network pattern of the whole country and even the whole world will change. You say, shouldn’t we set up a company for this?”

Indeed, this is a matter of course. If you don't establish a company, you can't sell products and make profits. You can't work for free and give money to major companies to make routers, right? Even if Posak claims that he is not after money, people still live in the real world, right?

Only then did Yige nodded in understanding, then lowered his head, and began to read the piles of documents again.

Since the sun was about to set, there was naturally no reason for Alice and the others to stay in the office, and at the end of the day, everyone had a full understanding of the router's performance.

That is, it's brilliant!

Intel's 80826 processor is composed of a full 134,000 transistors, with a 16-bit structure and a frequency of 20MHz. It is already the most advanced CPU at present. Driven by it, the highest network speed reached several kilobytes, which dazzled Bosak and others.

Although in Alice's opinion, of course it is still extremely rubbish.

Not to mention Core multi-core, Pentium 4, ah, not Pentium 3, even Pentium 2 can blow its ten streets.

As for the network speed of those few kilobytes... ahem.

But other people don't think so!

Bill Iger still had to work, and after they said goodbye to him, they changed the place to the Bosacks' home in San Mateo.

The house is located in a green middle-class community. As a small city in the Silicon Valley, it is about ten miles away from Stanford University, and it only takes half the time to drive to San Francisco. The traffic environment can be said to be extremely good.

In the spacious living room, in front of the rectangular dining table, Alice's family was warmly entertained.

"The speed is so many times faster, and the size is small and the price is low. It is much more convenient than the computer we use now!"

"Is that computer expensive?"

Hannah, who was sitting on the edge, was wearing a white dress, with long red wavy hair, and she smiled charmingly: "I heard from Weiwei that it seems to be very big?"

It wasn't until the dining table that Bosac's neat suit came into play. He smiled and raised his glass to Hannah: "Yes, it's expensive and heavy. Before your sister invented this router, all Universities and businesses have to buy that guy if they want to use the network."

"But now, with this router, the cost of building the network will be reduced many times!"

Santi's tone was impassioned: "How about we prepare to register the company tomorrow, how about choosing the registered address here? Stanford is so close to Silicon Valley, and there are companies in the computer industry everywhere, and they are all our potential customers. The market is right in front of us, and the airport in San Jose allows us to arrive in Seattle within two hours, and the traffic is very convenient!"

When Sandy finished saying this, Alice's gaze met her mother's immediately.

Sophie put down the knife and fork, and said slowly: "Mrs. Bosack, you mean, do you want the company to be registered in San Francisco?"

"San Francisco? Oh, that's a great idea, why not?"

At this moment, the restaurant was particularly quiet. Bosack himself sat silently at the head of the restaurant, while Santi held his chest high, and his clothes were still extremely clean: "I originally wanted to register in San Jose, but San Francisco downtown It's only an hour's drive to Stanford, and it's even closer to our home. Mrs. Wang, your proposal is really just right!"

"San Francisco is a bit far from Los Angeles."

At this moment, it was Sophie who spoke, and neither James nor Alice interrupted, letting the lawyer with a certificate at home, a Ph.D. from the Harvard Law Department, dominate the scene.

"It will be inconvenient for us to come to the company, but if it is located in Los Angeles, it will be a bit far away for you. How about we make a compromise, how about setting it in Santa Barbara? Or Santa Maria?"

These two addresses are in the southern part of California, one is sixty miles from Los Angeles, and the other is only twice as far away. In comparison, if you drive south from San Francisco and San Jose, you will have to wait twice as long.

"But compared to the Silicon Valley area, these two locations don't have much advantage."

It can be seen just from the eyes that Santi is an extremely outgoing and powerful woman. Facing Sophie's proposal, she replied calmly: "Besides, the land price in Los Angeles is still very expensive. As a company in the computer industry, traditional There are no additional resources available in the metropolis. But Silicon Valley is different. Not only is its land price not as high as that of Los Angeles, but it is also surrounded by companies of the same type, which has an incomparable advantage in employee recruitment. Alice, what do you say Woolen cloth?"

In the last sentence, Santi threw the ball to Alice.

Seeing her gaze looking straight at her like an eagle, Alice smiled slightly.

"This kind of thing is fine. After all, our products are Internet devices. Just like you have been expecting, when it starts to effectively promote the development of the Internet in the whole country, and even the world, whether the address is in San Francisco, Los Angeles, or Silicon Valley. Still on 101, does it matter?"

Alice knew that what she said was too vague and too ahead of the times, so without any suspense, the Bosacks were a little dazed.

But it is true.

As the world's largest Internet hardware seller and Internet solution provider in the future, Cisco is of course also the first company to put almost all business on the Internet. While this is not unusual in the 21st century, it was still the nineties when Cisco did it!
