The two glanced at each other, and Whitman said with a firm expression: "The two of us are ready to work two shifts, each of us works twelve hours a day, and we don't have a break on holidays, we still don't believe it, so do our best to serve customers, and we can fail to start a business again?!"

Niu Xiaoqiang knew at a glance that both of them were very unwilling to fail in their first business, and they very much wanted to prove themselves through success. But even so, the two of them can't do so hard.

Niu Xiaoqiang smiled and said, "Both, are you stimulated by something?"

Whitman's face showed a self-deprecating expression: "The two of us were invited to the class reunion a few days ago, and we felt very uncomfortable when we saw the other classmates mixing so well one by one, of course, we were not jealous of them, but ashamed of ourselves, thinking that the grades of the two of us were still very top in the class, but now those students with worse grades than us are better than us, so we have made up our minds that we must work hard once, no matter what the result is, at least there will be no regrets." ”

Niu Xiaoqiang nodded slightly: "If you really implement the concept of 24-hour all-weather service, I think your probability of success is still very high, as long as you can actively respond to the needs of customers, customers will definitely identify our brand, after accumulating word of mouth, the next business will be better." ”

Place nodded in agreement: "That's what we think, in order to be able to help customers solve problems, we are actively learning computer hardware knowledge, and if the computer sold to customers fails, we can fix it ourselves." ”

In these years, computers are not so common in the United States, and generally only companies will purchase computers, and there are not many private purchases. The main reason for this is that computers can only be used to process files, and there is nothing entertaining.

Whitman and Place are primarily aimed at private clients, who buy computers for work, who are not computer professionals and have little understanding of computer software and hardware failures. If there is a problem, you can only find a professional maintenance personnel to solve it, which requires a lot of money and time.

In the past few days, the two of them have gone to computer specialty stores to inquire about those who have bought computers, and they have learned that what these people are most worried about is encountering computer failures. After the two came back, they felt that this was a breakthrough, so they finally put forward the concept of 24-hour all-weather service.

At present, Hewlett-Packard does not have any reputation, except for the three bosses, no one else even knows that there is a computer company in the world called Hewlett-Packard. If you want to open up the situation, you have to find a different way to do things that other computer companies don't do.

Labor costs in the U.S. are very expensive, and workers are very resistant to overtime, so it is difficult for large and regular companies to achieve 24-hour service like Hewlett-Packard, knowing the importance of improving service quality.

Hewlett-Packard is different, this company currently has only three people, one of whom is still a hands-off manager, and only two people work.

As the saying goes, it is good to turn around when the ship is small, and it is precisely because there are few people, so as long as the opinions and understanding are unified, HP can do what other large companies cannot do, and implement the concept of 24-hour all-weather service.

It is foreseeable that as long as this concept is really implemented, HP will be able to gain the recognition of customers, and once a good reputation effect is formed, it will be difficult for them to do big business.

Niu Xiaoqiang smiled and nodded: "The company's affairs will be troublesome for the two, if the two of them can really make a performance, we may recruit people and let the two of them get out of the way." ”

Niu Xiaoqiang thought again of his Chinese alumni at MIT's School of Computer Science, who were currently working on telemarketing at Hunter Company, and if possible, Niu Xiaoqiang wanted them to join Hewlett-Packard after graduation and continue to work for him.

Whitman nodded, and took out a piece of paper with a smile: "Mr. Niu, this is the trademark of Hewlett-Packard, which was designed by me and Pulis, you have seen it, if you have no comments, this trademark pattern will be officially finalized, and all the computers we sell in the future will be affixed with this trademark pattern." ”

Hewlett-Packard currently does not have the ability to produce and design computer hardware, so they can only assemble it themselves by purchasing spare parts and then sell it under their own trademark. This is what many computer companies have done at the beginning of their business, and it is not uncommon in the United States.

Niu Xiaoqiang looked at the trademark pattern handed over by Whitman and found that the main body of the trademark was the two English letters "HP", which were the initials of the two names.

Niu Xiaoqiang quickly nodded in agreement: "This trademark is very eye-catching and very technological, so I will use it." ”

Whitman smiled: "Then we'll find someone to produce the trademark later." ”

Niu Xiaoqiang didn't say anything more, and transferred $400,000 to the company's account as agreed.

After receiving the money, both of them were excited and eager to start working now.

Niu Xiaoqiang got up to say goodbye and drove to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

He was arguably the freest student at MIT, taking only two classes on his first day at the school and never coming back to school since. Every time he comes to the school, he is related to the artificial intelligence project, and when he comes to the school again today, he is still related to this project.

Niu Xiaoqiang is in need of money now, and in order to get money, he once again started the idea of an artificial intelligence project.

When Niu Xiaoqiang walked into the research room, he found Robert sitting in front of the supercomputer he had assembled, knocking and knocking, and Professor Watson was not in the research room.

Robert looked back when he heard the footsteps and found that it was Niu Xiaoqiang, he immediately smiled and asked, "Senior brother, are you here to find the professor?"

Niu Xiaoqiang nodded: "Where did the professor go?"

"He's gone to his company to take care of things, and he won't be back until the afternoon. ”

Niu Xiaoqiang sighed and sat next to Robert: "Senior, are you programming?"

Robbert nodded: "Well, I checked the program written by the professor after I came back, and found that there were many imperfections in it, which greatly limited the robot's capabilities, so I decided to modify and improve the program so that the robot can become more intelligent." ”

Niu Xiaoqiang didn't doubt Robert's ability at all, he rolled his eyes when he heard this, and said with a smile: "Senior, I just want to talk to the professor about improving the robot hardware, why don't you suspend the work at hand first, and wait until the professor comes back, and then the three of us will discuss it in detail?"
