Chapter 1316 Social Circle

[Network] Chicago 1990 "Hey! What are you guys plotting!? Stop chatting, and agree not to talk about work after going to sea!"

Mark Anderson's proposal has brought about a real problem. 3dfx, which has just adjusted its leadership, has no suitable positions for Jim Keller, the chip guru. Deliberately brought ceo McLaren and cto Yasayo to play a surprise attack, forcing them to express their opinions on the spot.

But I have to act immediately, because Mark Anderson said that after Jim Keller leaves AMD, he will most likely engage in mips chips, which is a processor architecture that uses a reduced instruction set RISC, and is one of the x86 architecture competitors of Intel and AMD. , Jim Keller loves a challenge.

It has to be fast.

And mips technology company was once incorporated into the sgi established by Jim Clark, and it only parted ways last year. Although Jim Clark had no influence in sgi before the acquisition, it was still inconvenient for him to help.

In fact, Song Ya and Mark Anderson didn't intend to tell Jim Clark at all. That guy seemed to no longer want to bother with the intrigue in the business field. He took the aol shares he bought with Netscape in his hand, sailed around the world on his beloved sailing yacht, and then Waiting for the net worth to follow the market value of aol to rise day by day, and then complete the revenge against Microsoft, life will be complete.

"Come and taste it! It seems to be edible."

During the day, the owner of the yacht was concentrating on flipping the steak on the grill with tongs, complaining loudly and greeting Song Ya, Mark Anderson and McLaren who got together to talk about this matter.

"Here we come! Wow...it's so fragrant, the steak is great."

The three of them had no choice but to go over to get the steak, pouring champagne into their stomachs and praising each other with thumbs up, then walked around a few times and looked for opportunities to gather together.

"If Jim Keller would come..."

McLaren's face was a bit ugly. Obviously, cto Asa is not qualified to lead Jim Keller, who is far superior in technology and qualifications, "I can retire and let Asa be the CEO of 3dfx, and Jim Keller will take over his cto .”

After pondering, he looked to the distance to communicate with people, and the loving general Yasa who was still unaware said, "I know that people like Jim Keller are not interested in management positions."

"Don't think too much about Sir McLaren."

well! Sure enough, I went to my heart and retreated to advance? Song Ya had no choice but to comfort: "Mark and I just had a temporary idea..."

"It doesn't matter,

I should indeed be responsible for being overtaken by nv in some technical indicators during the management of the company. "

McLaren said: "I know that my skills can no longer keep up, and I am not very used to living in the United States. I have long wanted to return to the UK..."

"That's not your fault." Song Ya persuaded: "Isn't it enough to let Yasa share your duties as president?"

"No, that's not good. In fact, I always think that technology companies don't need too many cumbersome personnel structures that overlap each other. They are most suitable for flat management. There is no need to set up the position of president."

McLaren waved his hand: "That's it, I'll go talk to Asa."

"Jim Keller may not be able to come yet." Mark Anderson said.

"Anyway, we have to show sincerity beforehand, don't we?" McLaren replied, "It doesn't matter. No chip company will refuse Jim Keller's arrival. 3dfx is also my own business."

"Oh well."

Indeed, as the boss of videologic, he also held a lot of 3dfx shares after the merger, and the opportunity was fleeting. Song Ya thought about it, exchanged glances with Mark Anderson, and agreed.

"Can Yasa be the CEO?"

McLaren immediately went to Asa to talk about the matter, and Mark Anderson looked at their backs and asked.

"Okay, McLaren will help to keep an eye on it. It is more important for him to keep the power of videologic in 3dfx."

Song Ya was relieved by McLaren's decision to voluntarily back down. He didn't want to see 3dfx internal strife anymore. There is no discord with the videologic department, which is newly added but steals the power.

But it's no one's fault, the trio's character can win in office politics.

"Ah! Ah!"

At this time, the people on the deck screamed, and Song Ya followed the reputation, and the ladies in bikinis who were sunbathing all threw themselves on one side of the ship, bouncing and cheering towards the sea.

"What's wrong?"

'whale! Is it a blue whale? ? '

Rashida excitedly pulled him to see, there were two or three whales in the distance on one side of the boat, and the huge shadow under the blue water quickly approached. Ten meters high white water column.

Everyone was feeling the wonder of the sea, a whale about 20 meters long suddenly jumped up, higher than the deck, as if it was deliberately showing its beautiful and huge streamlined body to small humans, as close as a tentacle available.

"ah!"

Rashida screamed happily and stretched out her hand, but in the next second, with the roar of the whale re-entering the water, a huge wave hit the hull, and the aroused water mist splashed all the people who couldn't avoid it in the future, " Hahaha!" She wiped her face and laughed, hugged the man's arm happily, and pressed her body tightly.

"Catch up! Catch up!"

Jim Clark was not reconciled to such a short encounter, and ordered the captain loudly from behind.

"Aplus."

"Um?"

Song Yagang temporarily put aside the matter of 3dfx, hugged Rashida to enjoy a moment of relaxation, and was patted by a crew member from behind, "Your phone."

"OK."

It was the only external communication method on the ship, the satellite phone, so he had to leave Rashida and go to the cabin to pick it up.

"The man suddenly returned from Europe."

Ms. Sloan on the other end of the phone said: "I heard that he plans to meet the wife of the Grand Commander in New York."

"Okay, I got it, I'll be back as soon as possible." Song Ya sighed, "Thank you." Returning the oversized phone to the crew, "Jim..." Then he went to Jim Clark.

"You're boring, aplus."

After having fun chasing the whales, Jim Clark ordered the yacht to return, "Next time I won't take you out to sea."

"Sorry, Jim, I forgot I had an endorsement event to attend."

The rich third generation moved, and he had to go back to control the overall situation. Song Ya casually made up reasons, "Rashida, don't you want to stay for a few more days?" Asked Rashida before getting off the boat.

"never mind……"

Rashida was too clingy to let go, and was already reluctantly saying goodbye to the newly-acquainted daughter of a big landowner in Silicon Valley, the daughter of Jim Clark and other friends.

"By the way, remember to come before the medical software company we invested in goes public in the second half of the year." Jim Clark remembered the business at this time.

"No problem, just call."

If he didn't mention this, Song Ya almost forgot. During the "honeymoon period" of the two of them, he led some venture capital projects. It seems to be a medical software company. "Then goodbye Jim."

"goodbye."

Not wanting to waste everyone's time, he disembarked with Mark Anderson and others.

The group returned to Jim's seaside villa, and after a short rest, they parted ways. The new shareholder Mark Anderson actively helped McLaren contact Jim Keller to meet, and tried his best to persuade the chip giant to come to 3dfx. Song Ya and Laxi Da and his entourage set off for Chicago.

"Um?"

A few days later, in Los Angeles, Peter Cherning, the president of the Fox Group, was in the office to read an article posted by a friend from the media on the OpenDiary website.

‘Go to sea this summer vacation! '

Then he was attracted by the huge and elegant sailing yacht in the picture of the latest log. He is also a player in this field, and he knew at a glance that it was the top-notch ship in the legend...

Then he recognized Aplus who took a photo with Rashida, the ship owner Jim Clark, the technology hero Mark Anderson... and several other Silicon Valley celebrities who were familiar but couldn't name them.

A group of people dressed casually and took funny photos with the yacht as the background.

'Wow! What a beautiful boat! '

'Aplus is so kind to you, Rashida...'

'Have you been together long ago? Official announcement, official announcement! '

The style of painting in the log comments is basically the same, and there is no nutrition.

"Um……"

He thought for a while, picked up the phone and called Rashida's Jewish mother, friend Peggy Lipton, "Peggy, is Rashida with aplus?"

"I don't know, I never ask about the emotional life of the children..."

Peggy Lipton was actually watching too, but he vaguely knew something about the abnormal relationship between the two from the mouth of his eldest daughter Kedada, and it was hard to tell.

Xue Linfen, who gave birth to aplus, also worked with herself in the drama series Twin Peaks directed by David Lynch...

But she can also understand that girls at this age have almost no resistance to popular singers. She was Paul McCartney's flesh and blood during the most glorious period of the Beatles, so she has no qualifications to educate her daughter.

"Can Rashida help me make an appointment with Aplus? Bill McKennick and Yeremov have had a lot of quarrels recently, and this will not be good for the reputation of Fox Films." Pete Chernin said.

"This kind of thing..."

Peggy Lipton didn't want to agree, and everyone in Hollywood knew that Fox Films cheated aplus's money in the Titanic split.

reputation? Thinking too much?

"Do me a favor, Peggy. Aplus always refuses to meet me. He must like Rashida very much and is willing to take her to the top private gatherings in the Silicon Valley social circle."

"Uh, well, I'll give it a try..."

It’s rare that this same-ethnic media tycoon asked me to come here. She is in her fifties and has already retired from Hollywood. She only came out to act when a friend asked her to relieve boredom. She was a little vain. She put down the phone and pointed to the Mark Anderson asked his best friend who was the editor-in-chief of an entertainment magazine, "Who is this? I seem to have seen it somewhere."

"Don't you know Mark Anderson? The billionaire in Silicon Valley who was on the cover of Time Magazine." My girlfriend replied.

"What about this one?"

"Sir McLaren."

"Sir?"

"Well, he's British and seems to be a billionaire too."

"this?"

"I can't name him. It seems to be the CEO of some technology company. I don't know if his net worth exceeds 100 million. There must be tens of millions."

"this?"

"Jim Clark, a Silicon Valley tycoon, a billionaire. This Hyperion yacht is his, the world's largest sloop, I heard that it cost tens of millions of dollars to build, and the overall value is hundreds of millions. The hangings are all authentic paintings by masters such as Picasso."

"ah!?"
