Future super intelligent system

Chapter 20 Liu Fan hates IBM
Two days later at noon, Liu Fan sat across from Laura, vice president of IBM's Information Technology Services Department, in the building outside the building.Although after two days of digestion, Liu Fan still didn't know what the other party wanted to do, so he could only resort to tricks.

"Hello, Mr. Liu Fan, nice to meet you." As soon as we met, the other party greeted Liu Fan in fairly standard Chinese.

Liu Fan shook hands with the other party, and responded politely, "Welcome to Huaxia, I have long admired your name."

After greeting each other, both parties put on translation headsets.

Luo La brought two assistants and two people who should be bodyguards, while Liu Fan only brought Xu Jing, He Lin was still too tender, Liu Fan was afraid that she would not be able to suppress her aura, so he brought Xu Jing over.

"Mr. Liu Fan, it's a pity that it took us so long to appreciate your company's products. It is undeniable that you have a very good R&D team, and you are really young. In your country's idiom, you should be young and talented. Why." The words translated by the translator were a little strange, but it was enough for Liu Fan to understand the meaning.

"Ms. Luo La is really too polite. I don't know why you came to see me this time? In my opinion, we are not a large-scale company at all. I feel very surprised by such a meeting." Liu Fan was too lazy He beat around the bush and asked directly.

"Mr. Liu is too modest. In fact, I came to you this time because I am very interested in the core technology of your company's products. I wonder if you are willing to transfer it? Of course, we will definitely give you a reasonable price , I believe you will never be disappointed, and in order to show our sincerity, we will focus on your needs and try our best to meet various forms of cooperation. What we want is only the core technology and R&D team.”

Sure enough, Liu Fan once thought that the biggest possibility for IBM to appear is to recruit him, but Liu Fan's answer is also clear at a glance. He made a slightly regretful expression and said, "Thank you very much for IBM's recognition of our company, but we have not transferred technology now." Therefore, there may be no way to cooperate with your company, and I hope to have more cooperation in other areas if I have the opportunity in the future.”

Laura's face was calm, and she could see that she was not surprised by Liu Fan's answer, "Mr. Liu, I understand your persistence very well, but please listen to me a few more words, we have done a brief understanding of your company, objectively Speaking of your current business situation is not very good, I believe there must be a financial backer behind you, but can the long-term losses be borne by both you and him?
In addition, if you are considering personal achievement and development, I promise you that we can take the way of acquiring the company and guarantee your personal 49% shares, and at the same time, you can enjoy the right to operate your company for life.And we will give you the greatest degree of decision-making power.In a sense, the company is still yours.

And as long as we cooperate smoothly, you will not only get sufficient funds from IBM in the future, so that you can develop technology without pressure, and more importantly, our IBM resources will become your weapon.Our patented technology, customer resources, service experience, and our hardware equipment will be shared with you. I believe that with Mr. Liu's talent, IBM's platform will allow you to have a broader platform. "

What Luo La said was full of passion, but Liu Fan was completely unmoved. No matter how good the words are, the company will become yours in the end. What is the greatest decision-making power? Isn’t it just a puppet emperor, but there is no need to speak clearly at this moment , Liu Fan had no choice but to respond again with an awkward smile, "Girl Laura, I really feel your sincerity, I am very grateful, but I really don't think about this matter, I have my own plan, I'm sorry."

"I don't understand." Laura made an unexpected expression, I don't know if it was on purpose, "Whether your purpose is to make money or become famous, cooperating with us is a shortcut without a doubt. And you have completely missed it now At the critical moment when the rules of the game are formulated, if you want to enter the first-tier market in the future, what else can you do besides finding a partner?

Could it be that there are already other companies that have taken over me?Intel?Qualcomm?But none of them are experts in enterprise services, and our IBM is the number one in the world. "

"I understand what you said, but I will find a way to solve all the difficulties by myself, and I have never planned to cooperate with any of you big guys, you are worrying too much."

"OH no!" Luo La suddenly had a look of enlightenment, which made Liu Fan a little confused, "Mr. Liu, I'm sorry, I might take the liberty to say that you may have a very stupid idea now, and the reason you rejected me is not because Am I what you call a Western technology company?"

I don't know if it's because everyone's relationship has been a little stiff in the past few years, but Laura suddenly came up with such an idea.

"If you think this gave you a reasonable reason, then I won't deny it." Liu Fan was a little too lazy to explain. In essence, it is purely that she does not want to cooperate with anyone, but what Luo La said is true, even if she wants to cooperate with companies, she really does not want to cooperate with companies from these western countries.

"OH my god! You are such a lovely young man. The results of business are all for capital. You are also a businessman Mr. Liu. How could you have such an idea? As entrepreneurs, we should focus on profit and In addition to development, especially as a technology company, we even shoulder the mission of promoting the development of the world. Wouldn’t it be naive to incorporate too much emotion?”

It seems that the other party really thought that he didn't cooperate with him out of patriotism, but it's okay to be misunderstood like this, so Liu Fan responded, "Girl Laura, can I ask you a question?"

"of course."

"When the chips of the small island country were suppressing you, your country was desperately looking for a leader in the chip war. As the most abundant talent pool at that time, IBM refused to come forward because it didn't want to affect its own development. In the end, it was because of Mr. Noyce of Tell stood up and stabilized the situation.

Later, many people have been saying that IBM's corporate culture is that the collective interests take care of me. I just want to take care of myself. Do you agree with everyone's comments on you? "

"Of course not." It can be seen that Laura should have been asked this question many times, and she said very calmly, "The truth is that IBM did have strong scientific research capabilities at that time, but our strengths were not in chips. It’s something Intel and Qualcomm are good at.”

"So if there was a crisis in the field you are good at, you would sacrifice your own interests and stand up against the small island country without hesitation?" Liu Fan asked.

"Of course." Laura affirmed without hesitation, "We are a responsible company."

Liu Fan looked at Laura, shrugged his shoulders and said, "Then what you said to me just now is not nonsense?"

Laura: "."

It was only later that Luo La realized that Liu Fan was mocking her, and she was choked up for a long time without saying a word.
　Because of the problem of mobile phone binding, I can’t reply to everyone’s messages in the comment area. Here I will respond to the group. To be honest, I haven’t thought about this question at all, because I just wrote tens of thousands of words. I feel that few people will come into the group now. The original plan was to look at the results when it was put on the shelves, and then consider opening the group. Everyone thinks that the new author really doesn't understand this very well ==
