Chapter 0798: Miracle Boy Born
"We should immediately gather journalists from all over the world to witness its birth, the greatest achievement of the 20th century, the birth of a miracle.
Boss, we will make a name for it, the whole world will remember your name, and Intel-IBM, and history will change because of it. ”
Calles was incoherent with excitement, and when he invited his boss to come and witness, his heart was always uneasy, afraid that something would go wrong in the formal laboratory.
Thankfully, everything is going in a good direction.
"Don't forget yourself, Calles, you will be the father of the computer... Does it have a name?" Li Zitao naturally put this honor on Calles' head.
In his previous life, Li Zitao didn't care who created the first tube computer, he just needed to know who this honor belonged to now.
Calles, the chief scientist of his laboratory.
Suddenly a little dizzy from this honor, Calles calmed down after taking a few deep breaths, and said in an excited tone: "There is no official name yet, we like to call it the Wonder Boy." ”
Legend Boy, LDY, was spontaneously understood by the crowd as 'cavalry regiment,' symbolizing its speed and calculated power.
In fact, in Li Zitao's understanding, the correct meaning of ldy should be the Internet.
"The follow-up experiment continues, if you need anything, find Tia!" Li Zitao did not stay in the laboratory for long.
Telling everyone that a sumptuous dinner had been prepared for them at the hotel tonight to celebrate their achievements, Li Zitao left Santa Barbara with Tia, who had arrived from the headquarters.
Now, he's going to the city of Amunk to receive his bets.
It's only been 3 years since he made a bet with Watson, and now, LDY has been successful and can even be put into use directly.
The 51 percent share limit in Li Zitao's hands should also be lifted from now on.
In addition, he was able to receive another 9% share compensation from the board of directors in accordance with the compensation clause in the agreement.
Combined, Li Zitao will get a 60% controlling stake in IBM.
"So easy!" took off again on Gulfstream One, and Li Zitao was very excited.
This was a pain for the two women on the plane.
Melinda, who has been gradually getting used to the boss, is okay, but Tia, who has been with Manna for a long time, has obviously decreased her combat power very much.
When the plane landed and opened the gangway, she walked down with her legs inward and leaned over the fence.
Following.
When he met Watson at headquarters, the other party's face looked complicated.
One will be blue, one will be white, and the other will be red, and now he loves and hates Li Zitao.
The success of LDY indicates that IBM will be at the forefront of the world, leading the development of new technologies and attracting the attention of the world.
But it also represents the loss of power in the company, Watson and other shareholders are united, and the shares are not as much as Li Zitao's.
After the formal meeting began, Watson first raised the issue of 'voting rights'.
9 percent of the shares can be given to Li Zitao, and his 51 percent share rights will also take effect immediately.
After the meeting, of course.
However, Watson took a different view on the proportion of shares in voting rights.
"Charlie, IBM is the work of my life, it's like my child, I can't just give it to outsiders,
I don't think you will waste your time on a company, the right is just to better serve the company, you and all shareholders,
If you are willing to support me, I think you will get a satisfactory answer in terms of laboratory and project audits. ”
Seeing that the dove occupied the magpie's nest and unceremoniously occupied Li Zitao, who had previously belonged to him, Watson made a promise to him in a firm and soft tone.
"How much do you want?" asked Li Zitao noncommittally.
"How about 70 percent?" Watson looked at him tentatively, in fact, the bottom line in his heart was 61 percent.
This is enough for him to take the initiative and control the development of the company in any situation.
In his heart, he doesn't trust Li Zitao, and he also doesn't trust anyone.
It just so happened that Li Zitao had the same idea as him.
Want rights, no problem!
First of all, you have to be obedient, and then, you will get everything you want.
"I am willing to give the power to someone who trusts and has the ability to lead IBM to a new future.
Whoever can prove this like me, I will not hesitate to put my trust, knowing that trust is a luxury, and I am willing to hand it over. ”
"I think you already know me well, no matter where you're from... As long as someone can prove his ability, he can get everything he wants,
For example, the brains of think tanks, Ms. Aimo in Hollywood, Hans in S.H.I.E.L.D., Jonathan in Wells Fargo, or Emien in the Ministry of Supervision. ”
The minority shareholders discussed one after another, and the united front was immediately dismembered by the bait thrown by Li Zitao.
"Does anyone want to be next?" Looking at the black-faced Watson defiantly, Li Zitao signed the document in front of him with a bright smile.
If he had a choice, Watson would want to smash the other man's head with his cowhide shoes right now.
The reality is that he had to put on a smiling face and make countless promises to Li Zitao in order to win his support and ensure that the company was in his own hands.
Thinking about how brilliant IBM's future will be after having LDY, Watson's anger and dissatisfaction are mostly reduced.
............
Far East, USSR.
The Soviet representative, who had restarted negotiations with Britain and France, would have had a deep understanding of each other's feelings if he knew Watson.
Played countless times by the British and French, the Soviet Union had to frown and once again strive for cooperation with Britain and France.
The negotiations, which began in mid-March and have now lasted more than three months, have not actually made any substantive progress.
At 11 talks, the Soviet side sent foreign ministers, field marshals, foreign ministers.
But until now, I haven't even seen Chamberlain's face.
At the same time, the supreme leader of the Soviet Union, Stalin threw great importance to this negotiation.
The butt decides the head, and this starting point is derived from the current crisis facing the Soviet Union, and does not involve any personal feelings.
If all this was aside, Stalin wanted to rush to London with a gun now and pull the trigger on the owl-faced idiot.
In London, it was assumed that the country was entering into a new cooperation with the USSR.
But in fact, Chamberlain was still trying to bring together the 'Munich Four,' Britain, France, Germany, and Italy.
His plan to 'lead to trouble', once declared bankrupt, also means that his political career will come to an end.
Perhaps even after his death he will have to carry these burdens, which is unacceptable to any successful politician who regards his reputation as his life.
Moreover, Chamberlain thought that his intentions were good.
He just wanted to do everything he could to prevent Europe from falling into war again, and let Britain, which had been traumatized by the Great Depression, fall into a new round of terrible events.
