The Goddess Shines on America

If you want to say who has benefited the most from this incident of IBM, it is Cisco, which should be soy sauce.

"Hey Jeff, drink up your coffee, the boss should be here in half an hour!"

"Got it, Brar, I'm just refreshing myself."

In the office area of ​​the company's technical department in the early morning, Jeff Bezos is drinking the cappuccino he just made, and the desk is still full of the documents he left before he got off work yesterday, that is, a large number of experiments related to switches data.

After several months of research and development, plus the company's big boss Alice showing up to direct from time to time, the switch research and development team's research and development can be described as rapid progress. No, even three days ago, the experimental data of the last batch of finished products from the factory came out. Although this caused Bezos to go to bed at two o'clock in the morning last night, at this critical moment, whoever sleeps is a fool !

With a bang, the door that had just been closed opened again, and Brar yelled again: "Jeff, how long have you been drinking just one cup of coffee, hurry up!"

"The coffee is hot!"

"Then stop drinking!"

Bezos drank the coffee as quickly as possible, and a hot stream rushed down the esophagus into the abdominal cavity in an instant.

"Wow, I'm burnt to death!"

There was no time to complain so much. After all, I was the only one left in the office. After quickly putting the cup aside, Bezos ran out quickly.

Today, the entire Cisco company is in an impetuous atmosphere, and no one is interested in working. But that's normal, because now I know it's just after nine o'clock, and everyone is waiting for a celebration in the client area office. It is the largest office area prepared by the company's senior management for employees. Even if the company has recently expanded to more than 130 people, it can definitely accommodate everyone!

When Bezos finally went downstairs to the customer service area, it was already full of people, but fortunately, the topic hadn’t started yet, everyone was chatting enthusiastically, otherwise, Bezos who was late would be embarrassed.

"Hey, hey, excuse me, I didn't miss anything, right?"

Brar happened to be standing near the door, and he just arrived: "Oh, Jeff, you came just in time, Bosack has already appeared in front, squeeze forward with me, maybe you can get closer."

There are desks everywhere, people everywhere, colleagues from various departments in the office seats and aisles, if not for the piles of materials, many people might have sat on the desks directly.

After all the hardships, Bezos, who has just been on the job for a year, successfully squeezed to the front.

"Oh, isn't this Bezos?"

In the noisy atmosphere of chatter and noise, Alice had already walked in from the front door of the office area. Seeing Bezos just squeezed in, her eyes lit up and she immediately patted him on the shoulder: "Recently, How is the company doing?"

"Excellent, boss!"

Bezos said happily: "Boss, I still want to thank you again, you have helped me too much!"

Alice smiled softly: "It's just a guide when tackling key problems. There's no need to be so excited. You are going to become a world-class rich man. How can you get excited so easily?"

The appearance of the big boss of the company is the most eye-catching thing in a company.

Hearing Alice teasing Bezos like this, many people suddenly burst into laughter.

"Oh! Jeff~! A man who wants to go to the top of the world!"

"Yes, Jeff, according to the boss's words, the promotion and salary increase will go straight to the CEO, and you will marry a rich family by the way. You will be prosperous!"

"Developed, don't forget about us!"

"I said you... oops..."

Bezos laughed dumbfoundingly. He didn't know what kind of luck he had. The girl he met in the bookstore first... well, it was the "Jurassic Park" that Bezos planned to buy at the time. The author I met by chance, accidentally became his own boss, and always joked about becoming the world's richest man...

"Aren't I just going to earn 18 billion in my life? It's not a lot of money~"

The voices of colleagues joking and amused erupted in the corner, and Alice patted the shoulder of a gentleman beside her: "See, I just said to leave a large space for the customer service area, won't this come in handy?"

"By the way, Sandy has some new ideas recently."

The one who was patted on the shoulder was Leonardo Posac, who is also the founder of the company, a shareholder and the current Minister of Technology: "She said that the proportion of engineers in the company is already high, and we should change the operation slightly. policy."

Alice's eyes lit up, and she looked at Sandy Bosack who was chatting with other colleagues in the distance: "Oh, you mean...?"

Bosak whispered: "Since she became the director of the customer service department, she has studied a lot of sales books. After returning home a few days ago, she told me that the company's ultimate goal is to sell products, and the engineering team The responsibility is only to develop and maintain products. In terms of personnel ratio, there should be more marketing employees, not as it is now, where more than 70% of the entire company is engineers.”

Alice nodded slowly: "Cisco has been established for two years..."

Bosac blinked, a little confused: "Yeah, what's wrong?"

"After two years of entrepreneurial experience in the business world, it's time for Sandy to realize this truth... Oh, it's okay, I said to myself."

Quickly laughing and playing sloppy eyes with Bosac, Alice suddenly turned to the noisy selection field and shouted loudly: "Pay... Attention!"

Seeing the hundreds of people in the audience quiet down, Alice smiled slightly, walked up to the crowd, and stood behind the microphone.

"We are a miracle."

Loudspeakers in the house carried her voice to every corner of the room: "Really, we are a miracle."

"Unprecedented, a formally registered large company was founded by a middle school girl...don't laugh, I'm serious."

Everyone will not do as she wished, the laughter that was still relatively sparse on the front feet will immediately turn into roaring laughter on the back feet.

After the laughter subsided, Alice went on to say: "Here, I don't want to emphasize my existence too much. Facts speak louder than words. As a technology-oriented company, real talents must be implemented in the work, not just relying on the present You’re fooling around, we’re not selling stocks.”

There was another laugh, and looking carefully, hundreds of programmers with an average age of 25 and over were also looking at Alice with admiration.

Everyone is listening to her talk.

"In the past two years, we have made great achievements; in the past two years, as an emerging industry and facing more emerging markets, we have become the industry leader in only two years!"

"Two years! My friends, what is the concept of two years? For an ordinary company, even if its development is very good, how can it become the leader in the industry in just two years!?"

“Cisco is the best!”

"Two years! The industry leader! We are the king of routers!"

"We are the kings of the world!"

"We-are-the-champions, we-are-the-champions, no-time-for-losers, cause-we-are-the-champions-of-the-world～"

Although she was just an ordinary girl on the outside, when Alice yelled out such words imposingly, the enthusiasm of the employees in the audience was fully mobilized!

"Don't sing, bastard, I haven't finished yet!

Alice's roar triggered another roar of laughter from the big guy. Bosac stood far away in the corner of the stage, seeing Alice's expression of smirk after yelling, and he laughed too.

"In short, we are not the same as Apple. I met a game company owner some time ago. He has worked at Apple for four or five years. From a small company with one employee to a Fortune 500 company with nearly 4,000 employees and $1 billion in annual revenue."

The scene fell silent, and Alice went on to say: "Apple is one of the pioneers of the PC era, and there are many pioneers in the same period, and after all, it still picked up the achievements of IBM, Dell, and HP. But it is In this way, it still achieved such a big change in four years, such a miracle.”

"Can we be worse than her!!??"

"Absolutely not!"

"Our annual profit is 30 million!"

"In the field of Internet hardware, we are pioneers! 30 million in two years! 200 million in four years!"

"Kill Apple! Kill Microsoft! Kill all..."

"Idiot, Microsoft also has a boss to buy shares, what are you doing? Everyone is a family!"

"oh…………"

Seeing the excitement of this group of people who were basically under 30 years old, Alice chuckled, but shook her head: "Well... 200 million in four years is still a bit difficult."

She held the microphone with her hand and said: "We are not the same as Apple. Apple stood on the basis of a relatively mature computer market and took advantage of the general trend of PCs just coming out of the oven. But what Cisco is facing now is It is a truly blank market. If we really describe it, we are actually the same as the blue giant back then..."

This sentence once again caused a burst of laughter from everyone in the audience!

"Yes, yes~ that is the blue giant who just died not long ago, my dear friends~"

Saying this on the mouth, in fact, Alice herself is also weird.

After all, the Prism Gate incident...

"And our Cisco, also by the shoulders of the blue giant, stood at a new height!"

When the subject changed, Alice said loudly: "Fools, do you think my speech this time is just for inspiration!?"

"I'm assigning tasks to you, I'm an evil capitalist!"

"There is an order coming soon, do you know what it is!?"

Seeing that all the employees, including the Bosacks, immediately pricked up their ears, Alice yelled loudly: "President Reagan personally placed an order for me at the Pentagon. Washington, D.C. and the eastern four economically developed continents , all government departments will collectively purchase our routers, and the switches that just passed the final inspection two days ago!"

"This is a huge order with a turnover of more than 50 million U.S. dollars. Hurry up and move it!"

At this moment, everyone who passed by Cisco's headquarters in San Jose turned their eyes on the building in astonishment. It is unknown from which floor the monstrous cheers sounded, and it almost lifted the ceiling...
