Chapter 22 Hollywood Girl Stars

Every time Jobs used the great summoning technique to pull Tang Huan into the copy of Apple's office, there were good reasons, and this time was no exception. For Tang Huan's billionaire plan next year, he can only choose to accept it.

Jobs seems to have listened to the suggestion of the graphical user interface, but he did not take immediate action due to ridiculous reasons for being secretly unhappy with Tang Huan. A financing plan that wants to buy $1 million of stock at $10 a share.

Apple's financing activities, in addition to money, must also consider the added value that investors can bring, such as personal connections. Although Xerox is an old company, Jobs really didn't take it seriously.

During the evaluation of whether to accept this investment, an employee of Apple named Jeff Raskin began to try to persuade Jobs to pay attention to Xerox's R&D center PARC in Palo Alto. Skin was not pleasing to the eye, thinking that he was an unbearable theorist. In Jobs's original words, Ruskin was a "terrible idiot", so Ruskin's words were directly ignored by Jobs.

Ruskin, who used to be a professor, is now in charge of a research and development project code-named "Annie". Full functionality of the display and software, and more importantly, a graphical interface.

It was for this reason that Ruskin tried to persuade Jobs to pay attention to PARC, but apparently his efforts failed. However, Ruskin did not give up. He found Bill Atkinson, who had a mentorship with him, and asked the former student to save the country.

In Jobs' world view of "either a genius or an idiot", Atkinson is undoubtedly a subordinate who belongs to the genius side and is worthy of his appreciation. So Jobs began to pay attention to this suggestion, and thought of Tang Huan. But he can't become his own guy through brainwashing.

"There is no need to hesitate. PARC does have what we need. After visiting, you will definitely not regret it." Tang Huan said solemnly.

In fact, Tang Huan also longed for PARC. Only the various descriptions in his previous life and Simeone’s introduction could not satisfy his curiosity. Like Jobs, take something of value from PARC.

Seeing Tang Huan speak so resolutely, Jobs finally made a decision, picked up the phone and dialed, and said domineeringly: "If you are willing to uncover the mystery of Xerox PARC, I agree with you to invest $1 million."

The other party immediately agreed, but replied that they needed to communicate with PARC, and Jobs hung up the phone impatiently.

The deal was sealed, and Xerox agreed to show Apple its new technology in return for 100,000 Apple shares at $10 a share.

Tang Huan, who witnessed this process with his own eyes, was overjoyed, but secretly felt sorry for Xerox, who had been taken advantage of by Xerox. It is true that one year later, with the listing of Apple, the US$1 million became US$17.6 million, but in the end it was for Apple. wedding dress. Nima, investing so much resources in PARC, in the end, many research and development results have become the products of other companies to make money.

"Let's go, Tang, let's go to the R&D office of Apple's new products to pay attention to the progress of the project.

It is also good for your supporting office software to keep up with them. ’” Jobs extended the invitation.

Tang Huan nodded. According to the original history, Apple's third-generation iPhone was a failure. He really needed to evaluate it at any time, and he couldn't let his Zerone waste too much resources and fall into the pit.

But Tang Huan was obviously wrong. Jobs directly led him to the Lisa project team. Yes, the name of this project was his daughter's name.

The recent lawsuit with his ex-girlfriend Brennan over child support has been settled. Jobs completely eliminated potential personal property risks before the company went public, but it seems that some subtle changes have taken place in his heart. This is how the project was named.

The person in charge of the Lisa project team is John Couch, a former HP engineer, and Atkinson is also in this R&D team, which shows how much Jobs attaches importance to.

The Lisa computer is positioned as a commercial computer priced at $2,000. Compared with the 8-bit microprocessor used in Apple's second-generation machine, it has improved specifications and adopted a 16-bit CPU.

After the tour, Jobs asked casually, "What do you think of the Lisa computer?"

Tang Huan nodded, turned around and left the office, and said to Jobs who followed closely, "This is just a well-regulated computer. After you visit PARC, you will know what I said is true."

Hearing this, Jobs' face darkened immediately. Tang Huan didn't bother to pay attention to it, and left here, going directly to the project research and development area of ​​Apple's third-generation machine.

Because Jobs strictly limited the size and shape of the chassis at the beginning, and refused anyone to modify it, it can be seen now that the components on the circuit board of the third-generation Apple machine are very crowded, and the heat dissipation conditions are destined to be bad. The hidden danger of computer failure due to overheating of the board is unavoidable.

Tang Huan shook his head secretly, this guy Jobs is really a disaster.

At present, the internal situation of Apple is roughly like this. The sales of the second-generation Apple are booming, but the research and development of subsequent products is very weak, and because of Jobs' restlessness, the company's management is sometimes chaotic.

In short, the strong intervention of Tang Huan, a reborn person, only made Apple's second-generation machine's ability to attract money to a higher level, while Apple's general trend still developed along the original historical track.

In this way, after Apple is successfully listed next year and Tang Huan cashes out, Apple will not become an overly strong opponent. In addition to the market value, there is no need to spend energy to pay too much attention to its internal affairs.

After Tang Huan sorted out his relationship with Apple, he was about to leave when Jobs walked over again with a smile on his face like a Sichuan opera changing his face, "Tang, the marketing advertisement you suggested last time is being filmed. Xiaosi and Jodie Foster are here, as well as the little Canadian girl you recommended, let's go and see the excitement together."

It is not surprising that Jobs is so excited, after all, he is already young and rich, and in the original history, Jobs was a political figure when he was young, and had entangled with singers and writers. Men, there is nothing wrong with a little capital.

Tang Huan was also aroused, so the two came together in a rare and harmonious relationship.

...

Standing outside the shooting scene, you can see the two most eye-catching beautiful girls, Brooke Shields and Jodie Foster. Celine, a little girl from the country, immediately disappeared from everyone.

Jobs gulped a mouthful of saliva, and his eyes shot a fiery light.

Seeing this, Tang Huan felt a little strange. In his memory, Jobs' taste for meat was not so keen on small fresh meat. Could it be that when he was young, he had a wide range of interests and was not picky about food?

Brooke Shields has aristocratic blood from Italy, France, Ireland and the United Kingdom. Her grandmother is an Italian princess. Although she is only a 14-year-old girl now, she is tall and she can already see the clues of amorous feelings. Touted as the standard of beauty in the eighties, it was even hailed by Hollywood as the "Eighth Wonder of the World".

In fact, the glory of this little girl is entirely due to the star-making campaign of her shrewd mother. She was 11 months old when she took part in commercials for soap. Her life is almost all carried out under the camera for media hype.

Last year, Brooke Shields played the role of a child prostitute in the film "Pretty Baby", which is considered to have entered the film industry, but it is the same as Judy who also made commercials and played a child prostitute in "Taxi Driver" in 1976 · Foster somewhat similar experience, but the latter won an Oscar nomination for Best Supporting Actress. .

In the original time and space, Brooke Shields was very famous, but she still couldn't get rid of the label of a vase. What impressed people was nothing more than all kinds of high society suitors, the so-called love affair with Michael Jackson, and other lace news. Instead, Jodie Foster has made remarkable achievements. The 1989 release of "The Robbery of the Pear Blossom" won her the 61st Academy Award for Best Actress. She won her second Oscar for Best Actress for "The Silence of the Lambs" in 1991.

Jobs winked at Tang Huan, and made a gesture that men could understand, "Hey, man, which one do you like?"

Yes, one is a vase, the other is a talented woman, which one should I choose?

However, Tang Huan felt that there was no need to spend too much thought on the choice. No matter which one he used, he could quickly get in touch with the Hollywood circle and make his mark in the American fashion industry, which would help him sell his products, just like in his previous life. That's what Rich Jobs did for the iPhone.

And in the future of these two people, the former will become a courtesan, and the latter will become a homosexual. He must have a thorough understanding of the relationship between men and women. After pulling out the bird and leaving, he will not turn his face and become an enemy. While he is still a flamboyant, let's try to exchange ideas Feelings, it's not a bad idea to heal your own emotional injuries.

During the filming, Brooke Shields looked energetic and extremely attractive, while Jodie Foster was a little aloof and not as beautiful as Brooke Shields, but she had an outstanding temperament and a unique flavor .

When Tang Huan set his sights on Foster, he remembered that this woman once assassinated President Reagan because of her fans in order to please her idol, and she was involved in a huge whirlpool of public opinion.

Well, there are so many articles to do with these histories.

"Tell me, which one do you like?" Jobs urged.

Tang Huan had long discovered that Jobs was sloppy on the surface, but he was secretly observing and studying himself. He had always regarded himself as an opponent.

"You pick first, I'll do whatever you want." Tang Huan smiled lightly, and at the same time slandered, pick a hair, didn't you see that these two girls have family members who act as assistants, standing not far away? The care is so tight, now there is a loophole to take advantage of.

Tang Huan ignored Jobs' uproar, his eyes fell on the camera, and he couldn't help being slightly taken aback. Isn't this James Cameron who has filmed "Terminator", "Titanic" and "Avatar"? How did he come here? Advertised.

But Tang Huan immediately felt relieved. This guy saw Lucas's "Star Wars" the year before last and was deeply shocked. Then he resolutely switched from being a truck driver. I'm all going to pick it up.

Cameron will play a lot of special effects in his movies in the future, and has his own special effects team. This is a potential big customer of his IT products. No, he must find an opportunity to get acquainted and win him over.

Ever since, Jobs, who had been secretly observing Tang Huan's likes and dislikes, was surprised to find that Tang Huan ignored the beautiful woman in front of him and became obviously interested in the director behind the camera. The opponent is really hard to deal with.

Tang Huan glanced at the nervous Jobs in surprise, and walked towards the set.

At this time, it was time for a break, Celine was a little cautious during the filming process, and Cameron was giving pointers to his fellow Canadians.
