Eight Hundred and Thirtieth Chapters Bill Gates' Shock

"Boss, how's it going?"

When Xia Yu returned to the four-star hotel where Boca Leighton stayed, Thyssen Patterson and others who had been waiting for a long time immediately gathered around, looking at Xia Yu with anticipation and anxiety.

This is the moment that decides fate!

Although they have strong confidence after learning that the boss Xia Yu is a director of IBM, they also know that the strategic decision-making power of a company belongs to the CEO of the company, not a director.

If the operating system developed by the company can be purchased by IBM, it will be difficult for the operating system to fail. IBM's purchase will be a golden sign, and it will install a rocket engine for the promotion of the SCP-DOS operating system.

Looking at everyone's expectations, Xia Yu nodded with a smile: "Tomorrow, I will take it to the site to test the performance, and then IBM's president Frank T'Cary will come. Can we cooperate and decide based on the effect of tomorrow's demonstration? Are you confident? "

"Have!"

Thyssen Patterson and others responded with joy immediately.

As long as they have the opportunity, the next step is to test the performance. They are confident that their own company's products can definitely conquer the president of IBM.

Xia Yu said with satisfaction: "It's good to have confidence. I'll rest for a day today. By the way, you can practice how to show it tomorrow. Don't embarrass our company."

"Don't worry, boss!"

...

The next day, seeing that the appointed time was approaching, Xia Yu took Thyssen Patterson and others, who were already ready, to the microcomputer research and development department a few kilometers away.

When Xia Yu arrived, he happened to see Frank T. Cary waiting at the door.

"Frank, long time no see, nice to see you!"

"Mr. Xia, so do I!"

"These are my employees, Thyssen Patterson, Jack Origi..."

After greeting each other, Xia Yu introduced them again, and then the group walked inside.

While walking, Xia Yu said to Frank T. Cary: "Frank,

I brought something, should I go directly to test it? "

"If you don't need a break, go now," Frank T. Cary said with a smile.

"Then go straight."

"OK! Tang is already in the laboratory, let's go over together."

After a while, everyone came to the laboratory, Xia Yu briefly introduced the two parties, and then directly entered the testing program.

The test program is divided into two processes. The first process is to use the computer brought by Xia Yu and others to install the SCP-DOS system to directly demonstrate various performances. The second process is to install the SCP-DOS operating system into IBM's ongoing work. In the microcomputer developed, it was tested by Don Estelle Qi et al.

When Thyssen Patterson and others assembled the computer and turned it on, a group of people gathered around, not only Frank T. Cary and Don Estelle, but also other backbones of the R&D department.

The first one showed the process, which made the eyes of those present lit up. After the second process was over, the smiles on the faces of Frank T. Cary and others could not be concealed.

The test results are obvious, satisfied!

"President Frank, this SCP-DOS operating system has exceeded our expectations. This is a great operating system. In terms of performance testing, it is even better than Apple's operating system!"

"Although there were still some flaws in the test just now, it was because it was not fully adapted to our hardware. It will be fine as long as the debugging and modification are in place in the later stage."

Don Ester Key has nothing but praise for the operating system.

After Thyssen Patterson and others heard it, they all smiled, but they also knew that the final decision was still in the hands of Frank T. Cary, so they suppressed their excitement, and Qi Qi looked at Frank T. Cary inside.

On the contrary, Xia Yu was very calm, smiled and said to Frank T. Cary, "Frank, what do you think?"

Frank T. Cary was also an executive from a technical level, so he understood and understood the entire demonstration process, and naturally knew how the performance of the SCP-DOS operating system was.

He'd also studied Apple's systems, and knew what Don Estelle said was true.

IBM's microcomputer has been designed to compete with Apple's market from the very beginning. At present, the performance of the SCP-DOS system brought by Xia Yu is better than that of Apple's system, which has a great additive effect on IBM's microcomputer. What's the hesitation?

Therefore, he did not appease Xia Yu, and said on the spot: "Mr. Xia, this is a great operating system, and I can't seem to find a reason not to choose it."

As he said that, he smiled and extended his hand to Xia Yu, Xia Yu smiled and shook his hand.

"Happy cooperation!"

"Happy cooperation!"

"Clap clap clap..."

Seeing the cooperation reached, Thyssen Patterson and others were ecstatic and couldn't help applauding, and the rest of the lab also applauded.

After letting go of his hand, Frank T. Cary said to Xia Yu: "Mr. Xia, you also read it just now, because the company's microcomputer hardware has not been completely finalized, so the compatibility of the operating system needs to be improved, so I need you The company sent someone to help.”

"No problem, as it should be."

Xia Yu nodded and said. Then he looked at the few employees beside him, his eyes fixed on Thyssen Patterson, who also realized that it was him, and his expression became serious.

Xia Yu instructed Thyssen Patterson: "Thyssen, you will be responsible for connecting with Tang from now on. If there is any difficulty that cannot be resolved, you can ask the company for help."

"Okay, promise to complete the mission!"

Thyssen Patterson answered solemnly with his head held high, then looked at Don Estelle Qi, looked at each other, and the two smiled at each other.

"Mr. Xia, I didn't bring other people here this time. To sign the agreement, I need to go back to the company."

"No problem, it just so happens that I haven't been back to IBM for so long, so let's go there together."

"That's right..."

...

At noon, in order to celebrate the cooperation, Xia Yu hosted Frank T. Cary and others at Boca Leighton. After the luncheon, Xia Yu and Frank T. Cary set off for Almonk, New York.

When he came to Almonk City, it was almost evening. After Xia Yu and Frank T. Cary parted, he found a place to stay by himself.

The next day, Xia Yu came to IBM and spent about two hours negotiating to reach an agreement, representing Seattle Computer Products and IBM to reach a secret business cooperation agreement.

Since Xia Yu himself is a major shareholder and director of IBM, and has a strong net worth, Frank T. Cary did not completely put Xia Yu in the same cooperative position as he did with Bill Gates in his previous life. Although Seattle computer products The company is nowhere near as good as IBM.

After the agreement was signed, the cooperation was officially reached, and Xia Yu's heart was completely relieved.

He changed history once again. As long as the cooperation with IBM does not break down and takes the IBM aircraft carrier, the SCP-DOS system will become the standard operating system for PCs. System staged.

After the cooperation was reached, Xia Yu did not plan to stay any longer, and planned to return to Seattle to announce the good news to the eagerly-awaited employees.

Frank T. Cary got up and sent Xia Yu out.

Just when Xia Yu was sent to the gate, when Xia Yu saw two figures walking not far away, he couldn't help raising his brows and showed a meaningful smile.

Frank T. Cary followed Xia Yu's gaze and found that it was the director of the company, Ms. Mary Maxwell Gates, and a young man who was very similar to her. Could it be her son?

"Ms. Gates, good morning!"

"President Frank, Xia Xian, good morning!"

Before and after Mary Maxwell Gates left, Xia Yu and Frank T. Cary greeted him.

"Ms. Gates, who is this?"

Frank T. Cary looked at the young man beside Mary Maxwell Gates and asked.

Mary Maxwell Gates introduced with a big smile: "This is my son, Bill Gates."

"Bill, this is President Frank of the company."

Mary Maxwell Gates introduced to his son, but found that his son was a little gaffe, looked at Xia Yu in shock, Mary Maxwell Gates couldn't help frowning, and said to him: "Bill, this is The director of the company, Mr. Xia Yuxia."

Xia Yu turned out to be a director of IBM!

Hearing his mother's introduction, Bill Gates' mentality suddenly collapsed. At this moment, he felt in a terrible mood.

He actually rejected Xia Yu's acquisition before, so this time he came to IBM, even if his mother is here, can he still have a relationship with IBM?

The abnormality of Bill Gates made Mary Maxwell Gates frown. Before she came, she told her son to be confident, but when she saw the two important people in the company, she lost the chain, how could she not be angry.

So she raised her voice and said angrily, "Bill, are you feeling well today? Why didn't you tell Mommy?"

Bill Gates came back to his senses now, but his brain was still messed up. He forced a smile and explained, "Mom, I'm sorry I lost my mind."

"No, you shouldn't apologize to me, you should apologize to Mr. Frank and Mr. Xia, your behavior is disrespectful."

Mary Maxwell Gates said to Bill Gates, and also reminded Bill Gates that he wanted to re-impress him.

Frank T. Cary kept a smile on his face, while Xia Yu smiled and said to Mary Maxwell Gates: "Ms. Gates, many people will be surprised when they see my age, your son is doing better than others. Much better."

Xia Yu didn't say it, but when he seemed to help Bill Gates, Frank T. Cary had a slightly worse impression of Bill Gates, thinking that Bill Gates was a person who judged people by appearance, and he also Not good at hiding their emotions, a bit far from the standard deviation of a successful person.

Without waiting for Gates' mother and son to speak, a car drove in front of Xia Yu, Xia Yu said to the three: "My car is here, I still have something to do, so I'll go first, Frank, Ms. Gates, and Mr. Bill, See you next time!"

After speaking, Xia Yu waved his hand to open the car door and sat up.

"goodbye!"

After smiling and waving goodbye to Xia Yu, Frank T. Cary said to Mary Maxwell Gates with a smile: "Ms. Gates, shall we go in then?"

Mary Maxwell Gates smiled, as if nothing happened just now, and said, "Okay, President Frank, please go first! I'll show my son to learn about the company's system first."
