We're building a super chaebol in Hong Kong

#231 - IBM has been repeatedly criticized

"From your enthusiastic applause, I can tell that you are very satisfied with this price. On behalf of Oracle Computer Corporation, I am sincerely delighted!"

"Now that the price has been announced, the question you are most concerned about should be when it will be released!"

Yang Chaoye smiled and looked around at the audience. Although the press conference had been going on for more than two hours, he didn't feel tired at all.

Choosing to go to Su's Group in the first place was really the wisest decision.

Choice is greater than effort, mindset determines the path, and perspective determines destiny.

At this moment, Yang Chaoye strongly agreed with this saying.

Yang Chaoye took a bottle of mineral water and took a sip before continuing, "We have opened a product experience store in Times Square, New York. The opening date has been set for next Friday, which is October 6th. At that time, you can not only try out our products in the experience store, but also place a deposit for pre-order. As for the delivery time, our brand experience store will announce it at that time. In addition to New York, we also have product experience stores about to open in Los Angeles, San Francisco, and Toronto."

He didn't explain too much on stage about what a brand experience store was, because it wasn't necessary.

At this point, everyone's focus was on when this machine would be released.

Now, the product experience store was their only channel for understanding, and everyone would definitely flock to it.

Therefore, there was no need to promote it too much.

Because Oracle Computer was already a hit at this press conference, and those who were paying attention hoped to get a closer look at it.

The audience at the scene once again burst into enthusiastic applause.

They didn't expect that there would actually be an experience store where they could try out the machine?

More than a thousand people came to this press conference, but only 10 were able to try it out. Most people wanted to try the machine, but they weren't selected.

As soon as Yang Chaoye said this, the reporters in the media area were delighted.

They had been shocked a lot today, and they already had many questions they wanted to ask.

But people were holding a press conference, and there were security guards standing by, so they couldn't ask questions even if they wanted to.

Some reporters even thought that the press conference would end just like that, but they didn't expect that there would actually be a question-and-answer session for reporters.

Su Cheng didn't go on stage throughout the entire press conference. He didn't want to step into the limelight; he wanted to be more low-key.

If it wasn't specifically promoted, no one at the scene would care that the person sitting alone in the corner of the audience was actually the boss behind Su's Group, and Yang Chaoye was just working for him.

Here, he had to be low-key, low-key, and low-key. He would leave all the publicity matters to Yang Chaoye.

Because he still had to make money in the US stock market later.

If he was noticed, then his subsequent operations in the stock market would not be so easy.

"Let's start with a question from the ABC TV reporter first." Seeing that the reporters at the scene were all raising their hands high, Yang Chaoye directly pointed to the ABC TV reporter and said.

At this time, the ABC TV camera was recording the entire press conference. Hearing that Yang Chaoye actually let them ask questions first, they also felt incredible.

"Mr. Yang Chaoye, I would like to ask, is this such an advanced product really developed in the small place of Xiangjiang?" the beautiful reporter from ABC TV asked.

"Of course, please don't underestimate the city of Xiangjiang. Although it is far away in Asia, it is also one of the world's three major financial centers, and it is a world-famous production base in the technology manufacturing industry. In recent years, Xiangjiang's electronic products have become famous all over the world. Our Su's Group has invited many top experts in the industry and invested countless funds to finally develop this product. Moreover, all of our technologies have been patented in major countries around the world. If you go to check, it is easy to find out." This was a good opportunity to promote Xiangjiang and allow more talents to flow to Xiangjiang. Of course, Yang Chaoye would not miss such a good opportunity.

Because he believed that if top talents flowed to Xiangjiang, they would eventually be retained by Su's Group, or left to the brother companies and Heji Huangpu Group.

As for other technology companies in Xiangjiang, Yang Chaoye felt that none of them had such capabilities.

Would his lies be exposed? Yang Chaoye was not worried, because Su Cheng had told him that the source of the information could not be found by anyone.

"Oracle Computer's pricing has dealt a heavy blow to the IBM 5110 released this year. Is there any suspicion of disrupting the market?" the New York Times reporter asked.

"In 1930, scientist Vannevar Bush created the world's first analog electronic computer. It has been more than 40 years since then, but the development speed of our computers is not very fast. In addition, our computer users are also very few. The high price is not conducive to the promotion of computers. Only with more computer users can our technology develop faster. I think a company should have the corporate responsibility it should have. The reason why we set this price is because we feel that the company should bear the responsibility of popularizing computers to the world, so we finally set this price!" Yang Chaoye still replied with a smile.

Mr. Frank T. Cary, the president of IBM sitting in the audience, whose face had originally returned to calm, turned black again.

This was really getting shot while lying down.

"That damn New York Times reporter, you bitch!" Mr. Frank T. Cary muttered to himself.

All the reporters quickly wrote down Yang Chaoye's answer.

"Mr. Yang Chaoye, I heard that when you were at IBM, you had conflicts with President Frank T. Cary, often disagreed with him, and he forced you to leave. In just a few months, you brought this era-defining computer product back to the United States and announced the birth of this product to the world. Is this meant to take revenge on IBM?" the Washington Post asked.

Sure enough, the most vicious people were these reporters. Only the third one had already set such a trap for Yang Chaoye.

On the surface, they were praising Yang Chaoye, but in reality, they were creating conflicts.

Mr. Frank T. Cary in the audience clenched his fists again.

These damn reporters!

"IBM is a great company. I worked at IBM for most of my life and learned a lot there. I have no hatred for IBM, and I have no conflicts with President Frank T. Cary. When a career encounters a bottleneck, it is normal to look for new breakthroughs. Although I left IBM, it will always be the place I am most grateful for!" What kind of scene had Yang Chaoye not seen? He didn't even need to think about how to answer the reporter's question.
