Chapter 237: Meeting with Zhang Zhongmou
The media promotes Oracle computers for free, which is to be expected.
After all, Oracle computers are an epoch-making product in this era.
Although the media promotes it for free, they are also riding on its popularity.
This media does not promote it, so other media will naturally promote it.
The idea of capitalists is very simple, everything is based on profit.
Soon, the Oracle computer, which was released in the morning, was well known to thousands of households by the evening.
In this era without smartphones or entertainment computers, watching TV, listening to the radio, and reading newspapers and magazines have become the most important sources of information for everyone.
This is only seen by some people. It will be known to everyone when many newspapers and media publicize the Oracle computer the next day.
Not only the beautiful country, but also the Xiangjiang side.
When the Hong Kong press conference was released, it happened to be exactly 8pm in the evening, Hong Kong time, so Jiayi TV simply came to broadcast it live and set up a live broadcast platform at the scene.
As for TVB and Li's TV, they do not have this treatment. Although they are also among the invited media, only Jiayi TV can broadcast the entire event live.
Who makes Jiayi TV station one of our own? This is a benefit!
Through the live broadcast of Jiayi TV, not only people from Xiangjiang, but many overseas Chinese also watched the entire press conference through the overseas channel of Jiayi TV.
So, not only in the beautiful country, but also in the world, many people have learned about the Oracle computer product.
Although the price of US$2,999 has deterred many people, there are also many people with good family conditions who are planning to buy it.
Oracle computers have begun to pave the way for hot sales.
The camera returns to the beautiful country of New York City, in a luxury hotel on Wall Street.
At this time, Su Cheng had already seen the audience selection process. At this time, the hotel phone rang.
Su Cheng picked up the phone. The hotel front desk had already transferred the call to him. It turned out that the caller was Yang Chaoye.
"Boss, I have made an appointment with Zhang Zhongmou. We will meet at the Peony Pavilion of Daohuaxiang Teahouse at eight o'clock tonight." Yang Chaoyehui reported.
Su Cheng looked at the time, it was already seven o'clock in the evening, so he said: "Okay, see you later."
"Okay, I'll hang up first." Yang Chaoye replied road.
Daohuaxiang Tea House is near Times Square, so Su Cheng had to go there in advance. After hanging up the phone, Su Cheng went out.
When Su Cheng arrived at Daohuaxiang Tea House, it was already nearly 7:50.
In fact, the area between Times Square and Wall Street can be regarded as the most prosperous place in New York. At this time, there is a lot of traffic.
So, the short distance of eight kilometers took 40 minutes to drive.
Su Cheng took the elevator with his bodyguards and arrived at the 7th floor of the building, which was the floor of Daohuaxiang Teahouse.
The entire floor is rented by Daohuaxiang Teahouse. It can be seen that their business here is also very good.
Sure enough, as soon as he got out of the elevator, Su Cheng found that the lobby of the tea house was almost full of people.
Nearly one-third of them are old Chinese men, and even more are foreigners.
They drank tea and ate exquisite snacks while chatting. So the lobby was very noisy, with various languages such as English, Chinese, and French mixed together.
The waiters are all Chinese. Seeing the appearance of Su Cheng and others, they knew that Su Cheng and others must be Chinese, so they asked in Chinese: "Is there a seat, sir?" ?”
“Well, take me to the Peony Pavilion box.” Su Cheng replied.
"Okay sir!"
Under the guidance of the waiter, Su Cheng quickly arrived at Peony Pavilion.
Inside, Yang Chaoye and Zhang Zhongmou were already sitting there chatting.
"Boss, are you here? Have you eaten?" Yang Chaoye asked with a smile when he saw Su Cheng.
“No, I’ll order something to eat first.” Su Cheng shook his head and smiled.
"We have just arrived. We have already ordered a lot of things. Let's wait until we have enough. Let's drink tea and chat slowly." Yang Chaoye replied.
"Yeah, okay." Su Cheng nodded.
After saying that, he turned around, walked to Zhang Zhongmou's side, stretched out his hand and said, "Mr. Zhang, we meet again."
"Yes, I heard Brother Chaoye "Say, you asked me out this time?" Yang Chaoye stood up and shook hands with Su Cheng.
"Well, speaking of which, Mr. Zhang also lived in Xiangjiang for a period of time, right?" Su Cheng said with a smile after sitting down.
Yang Chaoye added a cup to Su Cheng and then poured him a cup of tea.
Su Cheng tapped the table three times with his index and middle fingers together, thanking Yang Chaoye for pouring him tea.
“Well, I spent most of my childhood in Xiangjiang, so Xiangjiang can be regarded as half of my hometown.” Zhang Zhongmou’s thoughts seemed to go back to his childhood, thinking of the time when he was trying to escape A time of constant war and migration.
"Then we are fellow villagers. I am from Xiangjiang. Mr. Zhang should know that, right?" Su Cheng said with a smile.
“Of course, Mr. Su probably lived in Central. When I was a child, I remember that I lived on the Kowloon Peninsula. Tsim Sha Tsui, Yau Ma Tei, Mong Kok, etc. were the places where I had the most activities during my childhood. Thirty or forty years have passed in the blink of an eye, time flies so fast!" Zhang Zhongmou said with emotion.
After Zhang Zhongmou studied in the beautiful country, he stayed to work, and China became his hometown.
"Mr. Zhang, please go back and take a closer look. The changes in Xiangjiang today are very big. As one of the three major financial centers in the world, the development of Xiangjiang is no worse than any other city here. !" Su Cheng laughed.
“As a half-Hong Kong person, I am sincerely happy that my hometown can have such a level of development.” Zhang Zhongmou nodded and replied.
After speaking, Zhang Zhongmou turned to look at Yang Chaoye and said with emotion: "Speaking of which, when Brother Chaoyang resigned from IBM and went to Xiangjiang to serve as the president of an unknown small business, I felt sorry for you. Unexpectedly, In the blink of an eye, you have become famous all over the world again!"
"Since I chose to leave, I have my reasons. You have also seen it. I didn't make the wrong choice, right?" Yang Chaoye said proudly.
"Speaking of which, I wonder why Mr. Su invited me out tonight? We can't just talk about things in our hometown, right?" Zhang Zhongmou asked very directly.
Actually, he had some guesses in his mind, but he did not say them out.
Zhang Zhongmou is the same as Yang Chaoye. Yang Chaoye worked at IBM for most of his life. Why didn’t Zhang Zhongmou work at Texas Instruments for most of his life?
So, Zhang Zhongmou’s feelings for Texas Instruments are very deep.
Unlike Yang Chaoye, he is already sixty years old. If he continues to stay at IBM, his future career will be completely clear.
Zhang Zhongmou is only 47 years old now, in middle age. He still has a long way to go and many opportunities.
So, despite facing many unpleasant things in the company, Zhang Zhongmou never had the idea of leaving his job.
