People often say that "character determines destiny", Wang An is so proud and conceited, it seems that Wang An computer company is doomed to decline.
Once, Intel CEO Andy Grove personally visited Wang An to promote his memory. Grove put the memory sample on Wang An's desk, and then asked, "You are the inventor of magnetic core memory. What are your thoughts on the application of this memory?" Wang An just glanced at him lightly, Bowing his head to open the letter in his hand, he replied, "If you had asked me this question earlier, you would never have made this piece of junk." This made Grove feel humiliated, and during the meeting, Wang An frequently received The phone calls repeatedly interrupted their conversations.
"My fear is that I will be drowned out by his deep yawn," Grove wrote in his travel report after the meeting.
Wang An is so proud and conceited that even the CEO of Intel dares to be so humiliated. Andy Grove represents not only himself, but the entire Intel company. If Li Zetian asked Intel to cooperate with Wang An Computer, it would definitely chill the hearts of Andy Grove and Intel employees.
What's more, the IBM-PC personal computer standard has already been established, why should Wang An Computer compete with it? Do you really think that Wang An Computer can become the second Apple company? If the Apple company in this life does not have the creativity and design of Li Zetian's bug, it will still be crushed into a dog by IBM's compatible machine.
Obviously, Wang An is too proud and conceited, thinking that he is stronger than Li Zetian and can lead Wang An Computer Company to dominate the personal computer.
Just imagine, if it is not compatible with IBM-PC, who would be willing to do additional development for Wang An computer from third-party software and third-party hardware manufacturers? No matter how good Wang An's computer is, he still fails.
Li Zetian had already reminded Wang An, but he had to commit suicide by himself, so no one could blame others.
In other words, after Wang An returned to the company, he was furious in the office.
He took a lot of face to visit Li Zetian in person, but Li Zetian did not give him any face at all, and refused him.
"This Chronos Li is so frivolous, he doesn't give me Wang An any face!!!"
Wang An slapped the table hard.
At the moment, Wang An Computer Company has not yet reached the time of breaking the bones. Although the personal computer market has greatly impacted the word processor market, it still sells well. Moreover, the minicomputers developed by Wang An Computer Company were very popular and made a lot of money for the company. Therefore, Wang An Computer Company is still a very powerful company, which is also the confidence of Wang An's pride.
"Dad, since Chronos Li is unwilling to cooperate with us, we can only find other companies. Motorola also produces processors, and the performance of the processors is excellent, no worse than Intel's! With their strength, they can definitely specialize Design a powerful processor for Wang An Computer Company!!!" said Wang Lie.
Motorola is in the limelight, and the laptop computer is popular all over the world. It is normal for Wang Lie to think of the Motorola processor for the first time.
Wang An nodded and said, "Well, you are right, then I will let you do the cooperation with Motorola."
"Okay!" Wang Lie said excitedly, then left, and immediately prepared to go to Motorola.
Right now, Wang An's health is getting worse and worse. He now intends to train Wang Lie and prepares to let him succeed. Therefore, many things were left to him in order to cultivate Wang Lie's prestige in the company.
Wang An hopes that "tiger father has no dog son", but in fact, Wang Lie's ability is limited and his performance is mediocre, and many people in the company are not convinced by him. Wang An hadn't abdicated yet, and everyone didn't say anything. But if Wang Lie really wanted to replace Wang An in charge of the company, there would definitely be many people who opposed it.
Wang An himself is a rare genius in the world who combines technology and business talent. His command is a group of people with different personalities, outstanding talents but extremely difficult to adjust. These groups have little or no exposure to oriental culture. People, obey Wang An, but don't expect them to obey Wang Lie, who is mediocre, even though he is Wang An's son. The biggest asset of Wang An Computer Company is this group of people, their talent. For example, John Chambers from Cisco in his previous life was only a regional general manager of Wang An Computer Company.
Traditional family management is not feasible in foreign countries. If there are outstanding talents in the family, this is naturally good. But not what? Then, hiring excellent professional managers to manage the company is undoubtedly the most correct choice!
In this life, Wang An computer company may have suffered more blows, making Wang An even more physically and mentally exhausted, and suddenly fell ill within a few days.
After Wang Lie negotiated cooperation from Motorola, he hurried back home.
"Dad, how is your health?"
"Don't worry, you can't die, just rest for a while." Wang An's face was pale, and his voice was weak. In fact, Wang An already knew that his health was dying, and it was time to retire.
"Tomorrow," Wang An took a breath and said, "Tomorrow will hold the board of directors, and I plan to make you the president of the company! I am sick and will be recuperating at home in the future. Wang Lie, Wang An Computer Company will be handed over to you from now on!"
Wang Lie looked excited, held his hand, and said, "Dad, don't worry, I will definitely not let you down!"
The next day, Wang An recovered a lot and came to the company with Wang Lie.
In the conference room, company directors and some senior executives have already arrived.
Wang An was seated in the first place, and Wang Lie was seated on his right.
"Hello everyone, I'm calling everyone here today for this meeting. In fact, I have something very important to announce!" Wang An said slowly, "I'm old and I'm sick, so I plan to retire. As for the candidate for the company's new president, I have elected my son Wang Lie!!!"
As soon as the voice fell, the conference room immediately became a vegetable market, which was extremely noisy, and everyone opposed Wang Lie as the company's president!
"Dr. Wang An, you are in poor health and are about to retire. We can understand that, but I don't think Wang Lie is the best candidate for the new company's successor!"
"Yeah, Wang Lie's ability is far from enough to be the president!"
"Dr. Wang An, I recommend hiring an excellent professional manager!"
"… "
Wang Lie looked at the crowd with his eyes, secretly keeping those who oppose him in his heart.
Wang An said at this time: "I am the founder of the company, and I have full control over the company. This matter is settled as it is, and there is no need to discuss too much. I believe that my children must have the ability to run the company! !!"
When Wang An said this, everyone was speechless and fell silent.
The company belongs to the Wang An family, and they insist on doing it, "do not avoid relatives", let their son be the president of the company, what other people can do.
Wang An held this meeting not to discuss with everyone, but to issue a notice.
Even if people are dissatisfied, they can only accept it.
On the day of the meeting, Wang Lie's appointment notice was issued, and he officially became the president of Wang An Computer Company.
As soon as the news came out, there was a huge shock in the entire company, and it also aroused the surprise of the industry and the media.
