Looking at Xing Baohua's serious expression, Izumi Ikebe remained silent for a moment, then bowed to him and said, "I'm so sorry, Mr. Xing. I apologize for my rudeness just now."
Xing Baohua watched him bowing and scraping, thinking to himself: Now that's the Japanese attitude! Is this guy playing favorites?
Xing Baohua didn't tolerate him either, and said to Jing Bian, "I'm annoyed just looking at you now. Also, Ericsson has a new vice president, and Motorola is about to get a technical director. Who do you think you are?"
Xing Baohua's intention was that while Sony is indeed a giant, the representative's position was too low. And they still dared to compete?
Whose time is being wasted?
Jingbian Quan understood Chinese, and when he heard that word, he knew that Xing Baohua was cursing him as a scoundrel.
But he really couldn't refute it.
It's not that Sony doesn't value it, but it's just a temporary outpost. Other organizations don't have offices in China, but Sony does!
First, verify the authenticity and performance of the item. Then, relay the information back to headquarters so that a high-ranking official can be dispatched.
Otherwise, it would be a waste of the elder's time, and Izumi Ikebe probably wouldn't even have the chance to commit seppuku.
After leaving the well, regardless of Xing Baohua's earlier humiliation of him, he would report what he had seen to headquarters truthfully, and would also report that the motorcycle company was about to send a high-ranking figure.
Actually, Xing Baohua didn't explain clearly that the motorcycle's technical director didn't have time to come; instead, his assistant and several engineers came.
After seeing the video and explanatory materials, a technical director at IBM applied to his superiors to purchase this technology.
The arrogance of the Big Mac was also evident. After meeting George, it lost interest.
Are the things that Eese makes good? Don't you see that they import things from all over the world, regardless of whether they're good or bad?
IBM has a local area network, and it doesn't lack one.
Wireless? Why buy something so simple? Is the higher-ups implying that they're just keeping professors around for nothing, and that they should just build something as simple as possible?
IBM's top management does have a different mindset, and they have the confidence to back it up.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have sold off the PC division. It seems the PC division wasn't considered a big deal by IBM's top management.
In his office, Mr. Joe finished watching the videotape, stroking his chin. He then picked up the instruction manual and glanced at it. After watching it several times, he picked up the phone and called his old friend, Wozniak.
The relationship between the two is now very strained. Longtime friends, they frequently argue due to various reasons or differing opinions.
"Woz, do you have time? Come to my office," said Old Man Joe.
"Damn it, don't you know I'm busy?" Wozniak yelled at you on the phone.
This was also the only person who spoke loudly to Grandpa Joe at the fruit company.
About two hours later, Wozniak arrived. Old Man Joe showed him the videotape and the instruction manual.
He even gave him the contents of the graphics card chip that Xing Baohua had given him before.
“He’s a genius,” Wozniak said. Then, turning to Joe, he asked, “Are you inviting him to the company? Or are you going to acquire it?”
"He and his factory are both in A. If possible, I'd like you to go over there and have a talk with him?"
"Are you sure it's me?" Woz asked in surprise.
Everyone knows that the technical founder of Guozi Company is not good at socializing and talking; he is always immersed in the world of technology.
"Only geniuses can talk to each other. No matter who I send to talk, it won't be very effective," said Grandpa Qiao.
"What do you want from him, the technology or the person? Dude, why play the favor card when you can solve it with money? That's not like you," Wozniak said.
He knew Joe too well; this approach was reminiscent of their early days starting a company. Joe had said to him: "Woz, let's start a company boldly. Even if we fail, at least we'll have created one."
Back then, we didn't have much money even when we were still in the garage, and we had to appeal to people's emotions to get them to work.
While Apple may not be considered a behemoth now, it certainly holds a place in the US's technology sector.
Old Man Joe played the emotional card, leaving Woz completely bewildered. And why would he send someone as unsociable as Woz to talk to him? Woz had no idea what Old Man Joe was up to.
Actually, Mr. Qiao didn't know what Xing Baohua was up to. With the first graphics card patent, he thought Xing wanted to sell it to Apple, but this time it was about wireless LANs. Apple makes computers; they hadn't ventured into these kinds of unrelated design products.
I could buy the graphics card and use it in a Mac, but I kept putting it off because I thought it would be too much trouble to find a distributor to manufacture it. It's not that I don't like it; in fact, I really like it and want to use it in my next product. The Lisa Mac is already on the market, and it has plenty of selling points.
It's actually a very simple problem, but these guys have made it complicated.
Wozniak had already disbanded Apple a few years ago; to be precise, he disbanded the research and development team while Steve Jobs was focused on developing the Lisa computer. Although he still worked at Apple, Apple was still his company.
Grandpa Qiao couldn't understand Xing Baohua's meaning, so he wanted Woz to go to China for a trip and chat with that genius. It would be best if he could get a job at Guozi Company.
If he doesn't come, it would be good to let Woz go and take a look. Maybe there could be a good collaboration. Right now, Joe is in a precarious situation. He can sense that the board's dissatisfaction with him is getting worse.
After persuading Wozniak to take a trip to China, Uncle Joe put Xing Baohua's matter aside and focused on his work.
Wozniak had his assistant prepare the plane tickets, and at the same time, he sent someone to contact George to inquire about ZG's address.
