...

Seeing that there are no breakthroughs in Hollywood tycoons and popular female stars in pop music, the entertainment media full of bad stomachs decided to go to the other party's grumpy "bad boy" Sean Penn to stumble and promote. The waves of vinegar they are happy to see. ¥℉,.

As a result, the serious media finally had a chance to emerge, and quickly confirmed to Tang Huan: Is Fangyuan Computer Company pursuing IBM's Don Estelic recently?

This time, Tang Huan reacted very happily and admitted frankly, "Don Estelic used to be a face-to-face opponent with us, so I know his abilities quite well. Now, Don Estelic has learned from The entry-level system department of IBM in charge of the personal computer business was transferred to a position in charge of global manufacturing. In my opinion, perhaps Fangyuan Computer Company can give him a more suitable personal career."

"Apple once invited Don Estelitch with an annual salary of 1 million U.S. dollars, but it was unsuccessful; I don't know what conditions Fangyuan Computer Co. offered?" The reporters finally got an official statement on this matter. Suddenly refreshed, I quickly dig into the details.

"You must have received the news. Fangyuan Computer Company was also unsuccessful." Tang Huan shrugged and did not answer directly.

The reporters were not disappointed. The big guys in Gein have always liked to play high-level talk, and they have analyzed the meaning of the other side's words: Compared with Apple, Fangyuan Computer's price will only be higher.

Even if there is no precise data, this material is enough to perfectly cope with the public's curiosity and thirst for knowledge.

"Tang, Fangyuan Computer Company failed to pursue Don Estelitch, so what do you plan to do next?" The reporter asked follow-up questions as usual, but did not expect any major news. In fact, only an official statement about this is needed. The end of the matter is fine.

Unexpectedly, when Qifeng emerged, Tang Huan asked with a playful look: "You are in the process of pursuing your girlfriend. What will you do after being rejected for the first time, forget it?"

Even more unexpectedly, the reporter who raised the question of conformity is also a strange thing. After being asked by Tang Huan, he nodded honestly and said, "Otherwise, what else can I do? I don't like to force girls."

While Tang Huan was smiling at him, the colleagues next to this person almost slapped him angrily: uninteresting guy, you are going to ruin an explosive news.

He quickly took over the conversation and asked, "Tang. You mean, Fangyuan Computer Company won't just give up and will continue to pursue Don Estelic?"

This digging operation is a step in a piecemeal attack on IBM, and of course it will not stop just because the big elephant roars a few times.

However, Tang Huan started Tai Chi again, and Gu left and right said other things: "Today everyone got together for the same charity goal. We can't keep off the topic like this, let's talk about charity."

The reporters scribbled in the notebook quickly, and whispered to themselves, "Didn't you have donated half a million dollars, what else can you show?"

It was the strange reporter who honestly followed Tang Huan's meaning and asked, "Do you have any new charity ideas for supporting underdeveloped areas?"

"Honest people have their own likability." Tang Huan complimented himself, his face straightened, and said solemnly: "Poverty, hunger and other material issues are certainly terrifying, but as long as all people work together to create a fair environment, People's quality of life can be improved quickly; but the backwardness of thought cannot be solved so quickly, and it will even continue to the next generation."

"As we all know, at this stage the world is ushering in another wave of major innovation and informationization since the Industrial Revolution. If people in underdeveloped areas are out of touch with this, the original knowledge gap will inevitably grow."

"I am brewing a project dedicated to bridging the knowledge gap, called OneputerPerChild, One Child One Computer, the OCPC project."

"In detail, Fangyuan, Zheru and other companies jointly designed and manufactured a personal computer with a price of less than US$800. The government of developing countries interested in the OCPC program directly provides it to children to reduce informatization. The knowledge gap of the times."

"The OCPC plan will continue to evolve and optimize all aspects of the project to meet the specific actual conditions of developing countries. For example, the price of OCPC computers will be lowered. Strive to reach the goal of $100 computers."

...

After all, the time available for reporters to insert needles on "LiveAid" is limited. In addition, Tang Huan’s OCPC plan is not directly linked to eye-stimulating money, so it did not arouse too much interest from reporters who have been fed by the news. It is quite charming. The embarrassment of throwing eyes to the blind.

In fact, the rescue effect of "LiveAid" cannot be as perfect as people imagine.

First of all, the motivation for the launch of "LiveAid" comes from the Western world, which has a superior life, and wants to show its humanistic spirit and influence.

To use an inappropriate analogy, a photographer who observes the animal world on the African savannah will not interfere with how the lion hunts and kills a cute young antelope; and after a new lion king succeeds in taking the throne, he bites in the wailing of a lioness All heirs of the former lion king.

In the final analysis, there is an advanced civilization's God's perspective on the backward civilization.

The people who donated the money selflessly gave their hearts to be enriched, and the organizers ensured that the donations were not misappropriated and had a clear conscience. This is all OK. As for whether those who need assistance will really benefit from it, it is too far away and beyond the scope of ability.

In the original time and space, according to the BBC’s disclosure, aid to Africa was often taken by local forces to buy arms; even direct aid materials would be stopped and could not be completely delivered to the bottom people.

Powerful dragons do not overwhelm the ground. Domineering powers such as the United States are also "breaking and dividing and conquering" in the localization strategy of various regions; Tang Huan's OCPC project, which cooperates with governments in developing countries, is more practical.

Fortunately, the richest man now does not lack the right to speak. When inspecting "DisoveryChannel" and "Discovery Channel", which have been broadcasting for a period of time with Ted Turner, he further elaborated the details of OCPC through reporters from CNN.

...

Like the original version in time and space, the programs of "Discovery Channel" are mainly documentaries related to science, technology, nature, history, and archaeology.

Tang Huan's principle for "Discovery Channel" is simple and clear, namely "broadcast interesting educational science programs".

this point is very important. In addition to attracting audiences with this feature, it can also strive to land in major countries and regions in the world as much as possible.

"Discovery Channel" is affiliated to Disoverymuniations, In. Discovery Communication Co., Ltd., which in turn belongs to Yanle Group. The current main partner is CNN.

Among the 10 million US dollars in shares, Tang Huan invested 6 million US dollars, and the rest was divided by Ted Turner, John Samuel Hendricks, and other investment institutions.

John Samuel Hendricks, Chairman and CEO of Discovery Communications. I personally greeted the arrival of Tang Huan and Ted Turner, and introduced the company's operation in detail, especially the specific performance of the "Discovery Channel" which was launched this year.

In his speech, Tang Huan praised the "Discovery Channel" team without hesitation, "It is your credit to make the educational science program so interesting. I am also following this program and recommend it to Watched by relatives including children."

It was so inspiring that the big boss made such a heart-to-heart affirmation, and warm applause broke out in the conference room.

Tang Huan smiled and made a gesture. "The goal of "Discovery Channel" is not only to make the quality of the program favored by the audience, but also to go out of the United States so that people all over the world can watch it."

"In addition, I will provide the necessary technical support to take the "Discovery Channel" program to a higher level. For example, even the wings of insects can be reflected on the screen."

"This will be a long-term and vast process of technological evolution. Determined by the background of today's information age, the high-definition television technology that is in the development and experimental stage will make the "Discovery Channel" program even more powerful."

...

Tang Huan has raised a lot of topics recently. After pre-ventilation, Ted Turner brought a special program group to conduct an exclusive interview with him, which involved the OCPC project.

...

"Tang. Although the starting point for eliminating the knowledge gap is very good for your'one child, one computer' plan, the specific implementation seems a bit unbelievable. After all, although the level of personal computer development is changing with each passing day, the popularity of personal computers is increasing rapidly, but it is far from personal The original goal of'computers'. There is still a long way to go, not to mention the idealized goal of'one child, one computer'."

The host carefully observed Tang Huan’s face, and said, “Some people think that the'one child, one computer' plan you put forward is essentially to promote Fangyuan’s personal computer, and it’s crazy. which performed."

Tang Huan had already understood the attacks made by his competitors against him. He didn't think he would use the American way to ridicule himself and made a joke, "Sometimes, the distance between a genius and a lunatic is only one step."

After activating the atmosphere, Tang Huan quickly turned to this topic and responded positively to such questions.

"I have especially emphasized from the beginning that OCPC is not a three-minute enthusiastic and happy party, but a gradual and rigorous long-term plan."

"The incredible thing about OCPC is that in the underdeveloped areas of the world, it may be difficult to maintain a basic computer environment with a stable power supply, let alone the popularization of personal computers that have not yet realized the original intention of "personal computers". To every child."

"This is the biggest reason why OCPC plans to select partners as official agencies. They have the inherent motivation to improve the quality of the population in the region, and they will naturally do everything they can to improve the infrastructure."

"The OCPC plan is unnecessary and impossible to achieve the goal of'one computer per child' in one step."

"After all, economic development has its own objective laws. When many countries develop their economies, they take a step-by-step approach, such as formulating a'five-year plan.' The gradual OCPC plan can set the popularization target at the school level, allowing All children who have the opportunity to receive education have the opportunity to use a computer."

"Similarly, in terms of price, the OCPC plan will not allow this kind of educational computer to reach the ultimate level of $100 in one step."

"Although there have been US$100 personal computer commercial products in the market before, it was a temporary phenomenon caused by the irrational competition between Compata and Texas Instruments in order to compete for the market share of cheap computers. It has severely set back home TVs at the same price. After the game consoles caused the collapse of the North American home game console market, the two companies were also greatly injured. Texas Instruments broke his wrist and withdrew from the terminal product market; Kang Maoda experienced a radical change in the board of directors, and the company fell into turmoil."

"In short, today's computer manufacturers can't make a real personal computer at a cost of $100."

At this time, the host who was listening attentively asked with interest: "Tang, then do you expect computer manufacturers to provide personal computers for $100?"

"10 years, or 20 years?" Tang Huan's tone was filled with uncertainty.

"It seems that OCPC is really a long-term plan." The host said with emotion.

"Clearing the knowledge gap naturally cannot be a matter of only one generation~www.wuxiaspot.com~Tang Huan smiled slightly," OCPC's educational computer will be a product with a considerable degree of usability, so the starting point of the price is more in line with the current industry The manufacturing level starts at $800. "

"I guess that many people use this point to question me for taking the opportunity to sell Fangyuan personal computers. After all, there are cheap personal computer products in the $800 range on the market."

"But it needs to be pointed out that since I have positioned OCPC as a gradual and rigorously executed long-term plan from the beginning. I am naturally relatively conservative. I can be sure that after the advent of OCPC's educational computer, the price will inevitably be less than $800, The function is absolutely practical, not inferior to products in the same price range."

"So, Tang, can you tell me exactly what OCPC's educational computer will look like." The host made an apologetic gesture. "You also know that according to those who question OCPC, this kind of computer will be the best. Inexpensive Fangyuan personal computers are not even inventory that can be processed through normal channels. After all, the speed at which Fangyuan personal computers are upgraded every two years is really easy to make people think about it."
