When Chris Curry heard Bai Zirui's question, he looked a little depressed. It was no secret. He said bluntly: "Yes, they are not optimistic about my personal computer project."

Bai Zirui said: "Chris, there is an old saying in China that people with different opinions cannot work together! This sentence means that if two people have different views, they cannot work together for a long time unless one person makes a compromise.

You want to develop in the field of general consumer computers, and others in the company want to develop in the field of professional computer systems. But at present, it seems that Acorn's financial strength cannot advance in both areas at the same time."

Chris Currie asked: "Mr. Bai, Dingtian Company is also developing personal computers. Do you just want to acquire my Acorn personal computer project?"

Although Chris Currie has different views from Hermann Hauser, they are not irreconcilable conflicts. He is aware of Hermann Hauser's technical strength, and it was these people who developed the LAN system.

He and Hermann Hauser are good partners. He is good at hardware research and development, and Hermann Hauser is good at software research and development. If the two of them work together, they will definitely be able to develop a personal computer that surpasses Apple.

computer.

Bai Zirui said: "Of course not, I very much admire Mr. Hermann Hauser's technical ability. If he can join Dingtian Company, I would love it.

I mean, if neither you nor your friend Mr. Hermann Hauser is willing to compromise, then our Dingtian company can provide strong funds and support you in research and development in your respective fields. This is a

A good way to solve the development of Acorn company.

If our company completes the acquisition of Acorn, we will devote all our efforts to perfecting this product based on Acorn computers. Acorn computers will become a brand of our company in Europe.

In terms of research and development, Dingtian Company will split Acorn Company into two. On the one hand, our company will support you in setting up a personal computer R&D center in Cambridge. You will also be responsible for the personal computer R&D at the Xiangjiang headquarters. At the same time,

The headquarters software company will also fully cooperate with your research and development work."

Bai Zirui replied: "Chris, the Acorn computer brand will become a sub-brand of Dingtian Computer and can continue to be used. In fact, it doesn't matter what brand of computer you use, what's important is that you can develop excellent computer products. To

We know that eight-bit personal computers have fallen behind, and Motorola's MC68000 has already entered the 32-bit era.

Chris Currie asked: "Mr. Bai, after Dingtian acquires Acorn, will the Acorn personal computer brand be retained?"

Bai Zirui frankly explained the development planning and arrangements adopted by Dingtian Company after its successful acquisition of Acorn Company.

After listening to Bai Zirui's words, Chris Currie nodded gently. He was basically satisfied with Bai Zirui's arrangement. As Bai Zirui said, the disagreement between him and Hermann Hauser was ultimately due to Aikang

(Acorn) Caused by the company’s insufficient financial strength.

He smiled and said: "No problem. We won't leave Cambridge for the time being. If you think about it, you can come to us at any time."

Chris Currie asked: "Mr. Bai, are you telling the truth?"

He is not the kind of person who clings to shares. In his mind, it is more important to develop a perfect computer product. So after listening to Bai Zirui's words, he no longer objects to the acquisition of Acorn.

.

Chris Currie pondered for a while and said: "Mr. Bai, I will need some time to think carefully about the acquisition of Acorn before I can give you an answer."

Bai Zirui noticed Wang Huageng on the side, who was hesitant to speak, and said with a smile: "Hua Geng, if you have any questions, just say it directly?"

Bai Zirui did not continue to pester the other party while the iron was hot, and ended their meeting happily. After Chris Curry left, he picked up the coffee and took a big sip. He had said so many words just now, and it was very rude.

Dry tongue.

After Bai Zirui heard Chris Curley's words, he felt happy, which meant that he was already moved and his attitude relaxed.

Chris Currie was a little shocked when he heard Bai Zirui's words. He thought that Dingtian Company acquired Acorn Company because it valued Acorn Company's technology. He did not expect that Dingtian Company's R&D direction would be different.

Even further than Acorn.

Bai Zirui nodded and said, "Of course, if you join Dingtian Company, you will know all these R&D materials. After all, Dingtian Company needs you to lead the research and development of the next generation of personal computers."

Bai Zirui replied: "When I founded Dingtian Company to enter the game industry, I had already planned my next step into the personal computer industry, so I have always paid close attention to the dynamics of this industry. In order to meet with Chris Currie, I specially

Find out what's going on in the personal computer industry here at John Rainsy."

The semiconductor laboratory of Dingtian Company and Xiangjiang University is developing a new 32-bit reduced instruction set architecture, which has made good progress! Therefore, the next generation personal computer developed by Dingtian Company will directly skip the 16-bit architecture.

Using this 32-bit RISC architecture being developed by the Semiconductor Laboratory as the core processor."

On the other hand, Dingtian Company will establish a software technology research and development center in Cambridge based on scientific researchers such as Hermann Hauser and Andy Hobo Acorn, and continue Acorn's previous work in local area network, professional

Continuous research and development work in areas such as computer systems.

The production of computers will be completed at the computer production base under construction in Wanwan, after all, the manufacturing cost there is lower than in John Country."

Wang Huageng asked: "Bai Sheng, why are you so familiar with the personal computer industry? You appointed me as the general manager of the computer company. I am replenishing computer knowledge every day, but I am not as familiar with the future development of the computer industry as you are."

Wang Huageng suddenly realized and said: "That's it. No wonder Chris Curry was stunned by what you said."

Bai Zirui said angrily: "What do you mean by being stunned by what I said? Do you think he is a fool? Doesn't he have his own judgment? That's because he thinks what I said makes sense."

Wang Huageng said: "Yes...yes, Bai Sheng, what you said makes sense. I think Chris Currie has been moved, his attitude has been relaxed, and he no longer resists our company's acquisition of Acorn. Why do you

Don’t strike while the iron is hot to finalize the acquisition with him.”

Bai Zirui said: "Too much is too much, and I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry. He agrees now, what if he regrets it later? So it is still necessary for him to think calmly. Don't worry, he will eventually agree to our company's support for Acorn."

Acquisition of the company.”
