Chapter 68 The new president of intel
Time is entering April.
"Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire" and "Fallout 2" are both released at this time.
The Harry Potter series is now well-known, and Fallout has become very well-known because of last year's Cuban missile crisis and Catherine's $20 million. The box office record is now 15 million for Ben Hur, and now, this record is maintained by Catherine.
At this time, Catherine sat in the office with a rare opportunity. She was about to interview someone who was discovered by Bruce.
Actually, it shouldn't be an interview. Catherine just wants to see if this person is the same as the one in her memory. After all, Catherine just knows the name of this person.
A man with a flat nose walked in. He actually looked pretty good, but the scars on his face and that nose reduced him a lot.
"Jerry Sanders?"
"Yes, Miss Ederson."
Sanders was born in Chicago in 1936. When he was still in kindergarten, his parents divorced. He was raised by his grandfather. He was very smart in school, had always had excellent grades, and jumped to the next level in middle school. But he liked to stand up, so he was often involved in fights. At the University of Illinois, he studied engineering. Once, a classmate named Jim had a dispute with a group of hooligans. Seeing that Jim was about to be beaten, he walked up to pull away the hooligans. Jim ran away, but he was beaten to pieces, so that he broke his face forever. His nose was deformed, his forehead bones were sunken, and his ribs were broken, and he almost died.
In Silicon Valley a few years later, Sanders will become a prominent figure and be awarded the title of "Prince of the Clown".
But not now.
He now works under Motorola, but he has always been dissatisfied with his job.
At this time, Bruce extended an olive branch to him.
At this time, Sanders' talent had just been reflected, but Motorola has not taken it seriously yet.
"I want to know, what do you think of the electronics industry? I heard you have always had unique insights into this."
Sanders is a very strong person. He met the development of the electronics industry very early.
"I think the development of personal computers shows that computers are moving towards popularization and industrialization, and are no longer industries of companies such as ibm. Supercomputers may only appear in certain research institutions in the future, and for ordinary companies, this will become unnecessary existence. I think our company should truly target personal computers. We should make them depend on our products. For now, profits should rank second, and first of all, what we need is to expand the industry and occupy the market."
The other party did not despise the other party because Catherine was a little girl, but instead expressed his opinions freely.
Katherine smiled.
"Mr. Sanders. Now I want to congratulate you, starting today, you will be the president of Intel."
Sanders was also shocked. Before that, his position should be the general manager, but now, he suddenly became the president of Intel...
Bruce's experience is not enough now. Catherine thinks that someone should share his pressure. Moreover, Sanders is a very strong person. At this time, who else should I find if I don't let him come here?
Katherine took out a contract.
She hired Sanders to hire 2.5% of Intel shares and a sky-high price of $500,000 (and increasing from 100,000 to 1 million every year).
Because of these remarks, Catherine also decided to develop the second generation of Microsoft computers.
This time, Catherine made a decision: open hardware standards.
In other words, it is to allow third parties to set up plug-ins for their computers!
Just like the future motherboards, CPUs, and graphics cards, there are countless manufacturers to make them.
Catherine decided to open this standard.
However, every time a manufacturer sells a product, it will receive a commission. After all, it owns the product patent and the standards are also owned by its own company.
However, Katherine was not sure what her thought would be like.
However, ibm has noticed the personal computer market at this time, and some other companies seem to be preparing to develop personal computers. Catherine doesn't want to "die the previous wave on the beach". Therefore, being able to open its own standards will also be very helpful for its market share.
The Microsoft II computer is the bomb dropped by Catherine.
Katherine has opened the standards for memory, CPU, and graphics display cards. At the same time, it has also reserved several sockets to allow other companies to configure plug-ins such as sound cards for their products.
Katherine's current computer uses 8kb memory. Originally, this memory was integrated on the motherboard, but now, Katherine decided to separate it. At the same time, the original display output device was replaced.
Originally, Catherine used a monochrome display card and a color display card. Although the so-called color is only 16 colors, it is already a big cost. This is why Catherine used only monochrome display on the working version of Microsoft computers.
However, Catherine is not open to the motherboard standards. Every hardware must include a protocol from Catherine in order to replace the hardware for her computer.
If anyone wants to develop a motherboard and their own standards separately... Sorry, this is a subpoena from the court.
However, the electronics industry is in its infancy, and it will take some time to truly wait until it bears fruit.
Now that Katherine has tens of thousands of funds, she immediately invested it in Intel. Fairchild is the big brother in the semiconductor industry, but even when it is extremely strong, its internal conflicts have begun to emerge. Katherine is preparing to wait for the opportunity to dig all the best semiconductor engineers of this era. Even if she can't dig them all, Katherine hopes to dig up most of the parts.
Katherine wrote a plan for the Microsoft II computer and handed it over to the technology department.
In order to keep it confidential, she also asked the technical department to sign a contract to ensure that no secrets were leaked during the research period.
Katherine believes that a new computer will appear in at most two years.
The electronics industry is in a dormant stage, while the film and television industry is taking off, and Catherine's gametv is also taking over the market faster and faster.
The rise in TV penetration has led to a boom in the TV industry.
So, Catherine's TV station was also established.
angelbeats, angelbeats.
It is referred to as "ab TV" or "angel TV".
If there were no accidents, Catherine's TV station would be aired on July 1, 1964. The TV version of "Fallout" will be Catherine's main show...
