As time goes by, the update of computer technology will only get faster and faster. Think about it, gentlemen, how many ways did we think of in the 1970s to give computers a little more space?But now, there is no difficulty in running a complex operating system!If Mr. Clinton’s Information Highway can be realized, it will be an unprecedented innovation, so the IT industry will definitely be the best investment target in the future!
The middle-aged man talked freely, and from his excited expression, it can be seen that if he had said this in the auditorium, his body language would have been very rich.
But at present, except for a few companies with good prospects, such as Microsoft; many companies have more or less problems, such as Apple.The person who said this obviously had bad intentions.
This is normal. Apple's current CEO may be quite skilled in business, but there is no specific plan for technical updates.The middle-aged man replied calmly.
But we all know that after the release of win30, Microsoft has basically established its own monopoly.
The other party did not intend to let him go, and a voice came over at this time: Every company has its own direction. Microsoft is taking the route of popularization of civilians, so Apple can take the route of high-end elites.
A ray of light flashed in the middle-aged man's eyes, and he immediately turned his head to look at the person who was making a sound.
It was a young man in his early twenties, with a pair of bright black eyes, slightly curly brown hair, and a height of about 6 feet made his tall figure look slender. He also had a decent suit and smiled with a temperament.
Hello Mr. Steve Jobs, I am Adrian Cowell.The young man stretched out his hand to the middle-aged man.
Hello, Mr. Cowell.Steve shook his hand and was very happy to meet you.
He did not ask about the other party's profession. Those who can attend such banquets are either rich or noble, but he inevitably had a little arrogance in his tone.
It's normal, if not, he's not Steve Jobs anymore.
But Adrian's next sentence made him frown: Frankly, I don't like you, Mr. Jobs.
This is the truth. In his previous life, he had some understanding of the dark history of Jobs, the founder of Apple. Simply put, he had a weird personality, arrogance, arbitrary behavior, and liked to take other people's achievements as his own, and even refused to admit it.
Especially the two issues of arrogance and arbitrary behavior, if he had not offended all the board members at the beginning, he would have been kicked out of Apple.
Therefore, he really didn't like this person very much in his previous life.
But now it's different. Adrian, after his rebirth, is quite similar to Jobs in some places, and it is inevitable that he has a little bit of a similar smell. More importantly, although this guy has many problems, few people can match his business talents. If he had not been kicked out of Apple a few years ago, I don't know who would have laughed the last of the war between Apple and Microsoft.
For Adrian, who knows the future, Jobs has a lot of things he wants. If the operation is good, the benefits will be very important to supplement his plan, so it is not an exaggeration to establish a good relationship now, so...
However, there is no perfect person in this world. If you have an excellent side, you will naturally have a bad side. So if you don’t like it, you still have the respect you should have.
Adrian continued with a smile.
This disguised compliment immediately made Jobs' frown unfold, and he nodded and raised his chin slightly: That's true.
I am a director, a new director, but I also run a media company and an investment company with my friends.
Adrian continued, Mr. Clinton's concept of information highway has given us a lot of new ideas. If it can be built smoothly, it will open a new door for the media industry.In addition, we all graduated from Stanford and have a relatively good understanding of Silicon Valley, so we are optimistic about investment in the IT industry. I happened to hear your conversation and came over, hoping that it would not disturb you.
No no no no, of course not.
The eyes behind Jobs' lens lit up. I have to say that you and your friends are very visionary. Mr. Cowell, the development of the IT industry has never been as rapid as it is now...
Then there was a long discussion. Although the current IT industry was analyzed from a global perspective, it was still selling his own NeXT computer company.
The company was created after he was kicked out of Apple, and its main business is to develop new computer technology.
Adrian couldn't help feeling ridiculous. He had heard this statement in his previous life: Jobs' promotion in his autobiography, and the reason why he succeeded was not unrelated to his seizing the opportunity to promote himself anytime and anywhere.
Now it seems that this statement is still a bit credible. To be honest, if he didn't know what he will look like in the future, he might have been impressed by Jobs. This guy's eloquence is absolutely first-class, even more than Clinton who gave a speech at the fundraising dinner just now.
Thank you for your commentary, Steve, my friend and I will consider your suggestions.After Jobs finished his long speech, Adrian quickly took over the conversation so that he would not continue.
I believe you will make a wise choice, Adrian.Jobs nodded and didn't continue to say anything.
Then... Adrian looked at Claude in the distance at this time, and I thought I had to leave and contact me if I had time in the future.
As he said that, he took out his business card and handed it to Jobs. Jobs also gave Adrian his business card, and then separated from each other.
After a conversation, I still gained a little. At least both of them have called each other's names directly.
But that's the case for the time being. If we want to further deepen the relationship, it will take a few more years. At that time, the good things in Jobs' hands will be valuable.
Of course, Adrian wouldn't say that to Claude.
He is a business genius. Yes, he was very arrogant in the early 1980s. That's normal. Few people became billionaires in their early 20s. Staying sober is not easy, so it's normal to suffer setbacks.
On the way back, Adrian said in the RV, at least Jobs was not depressed, so I think he is a worthy object of attention.Remember, "icing on the cake" is never as good as "sential help"!
Oh, please, please don’t speak Chinese to me, okay?I feel a headache when I think of those cube words.Claude shouted, I know what you mean, that's it.
OK, then say another thing.Adrian changed his topic, how is the situation of foreign trading companies?There is not much time left, and the Soviet Union can hold on for at most another half a year.
Yeah?Claude raised his eyebrows, can you be sure?
No, this is just my own inference.Adrian knew what he was asking.
Don't worry, I'll make arrangements, Ed.
Claude thought about it and then added: In fact, I had made arrangements. After discussing that night, I started to analyze and then formulated a plan.
plan?What kind of plan?Adrian immediately became interested.
Well... Forget it, let's talk about it after it is finished.Claude thought about it and said, "I originally planned to give you a huge surprise."
A huge surprise?OK, then I'll wait.Adrian didn't ask much.
A few minutes later he frowned again: What are you looking at, Crow?
Of course I was watching... After watching him for a while, Claude chuckled. Is the life of a dad in London affecting you for more than a month, but judging from your performance tonight, you have not changed at all.
Shut up, Crow!I said, I'm not polite if you say this again!Adrian immediately threatened with annoyance.
OK OK OK I didn't say anything.Claude laughed, you really haven't changed at all, Ed.
Rolling his eyes, Adrian turned his eyes out of the car window.
Change?
Of course not. Although Adrian almost thought that he had changed during the time he was always entangled by Emma in London, he knew that he was still himself when he returned to Los Angeles. He knew what he wanted and how to get it.
It’s enough to attend the Democratic Party’s fundraising dinner once, mainly to observe whether the expressway proposed by Clinton is deviating.
Adrian was not interested in getting involved with politics, and all these things were left to Claude in the future.
Afterwards, Adrian immediately devoted himself to the later stage of "Shawshank Redemption". To be honest, the studio's editors are still good at abilities, but their understanding of this movie is far less than Adrian. In addition, the time it was compressed as much as possible during shooting, the shots were few and very messy, and almost no one could figure out the order of these shots.
Although Adrian gave guidance via video phone when he was in London, it could not replace him editing the film himself, so what he saw when he returned to Los Angeles was a finished product with a clear storyline but various twists were very stiff.
Faced with this situation, Adrian had to make adjustments by himself.
Fortunately, as he had expected before, it was much easier to modify than to create it again. It took about a week to edit "Shawshank Redemption".
Then another week spent dealing with the fragmented post-production work, such as adding the soundtrack to the soundtrack produced by Thomas Newman is completely different from the ones in memory, but also exciting; or contacting several leading actors to do dubbing work, which must be supervised by Adrian.
Finally, two weeks later, "The Shawshank Redemption" was basically completed. All that is left is trial viewing, distribution and publicity, especially publicity work, which is very important because the goal of this movie is very clear, and it is for the Academy Awards.
It will be my ticket to the Oscars next year.That's what Adrian said to Lavern at the time.
The middle-aged man talked freely, and from his excited expression, it can be seen that if he had said this in the auditorium, his body language would have been very rich.
