The richest man starts with a blind box

Chapter 703 Billy Howard's Desperate Fight [Eighth]

Billy Howard was excited for a long time by himself before he realized, no, the popularity of Atari's rebirth news seems to have directly pushed down his own news popularity!

Billy Howard, who came over to react, quickly checked the situation on Weibo. Although his own news was still in the second most searched position, it was in a state of no one's attention, because the homepage was all about Atari. Excited netizens began to swipe all kinds of such emoticons on the Internet and post all kinds of emotional articles.

And if you observe carefully, you will find that there are actually many users in this group of users who are 30-40 years old.

Atari began to enter the game market in 1972, and entered its peak period in 1975, releasing countless games that were popular all over the country at that time.At this time, Nintendo is not even worthy of carrying shoes in front of Atari, and all children from the age of 5 to 18 in Quanmi are loyal fans of Atari.

In 1982, Atari released the Alien ET and began to enter a fatal decline.

In 1990, Atari's market was basically eroded by Nintendo. Although Atari was still alive, it was no different from death. It can be said that it was dead.

So, in the 1972 years from 1982 to 10, people who were 18 years old up and 5 years old down were all Atari users, and they happened to be between 27 and 50 years old now. And this group of people happens to be the main force in today's network society.

Some people may wonder, shouldn't the main force on the Internet be young people?How could it be a middle-aged person between the ages of 27 and 50?

First of all, who told you that you are middle-aged at the age of 27 to 40?
In fact, 2004 was in the development stage of the Internet. In the United States, there may be many people with computers at home, but less than half of the computers are connected to the Internet. The Internet is far from reaching the peak of later generations.

In fact, most of the Internet is spread across various companies, and those who use the Internet in the company are naturally middle-aged people aged 27 to 50. As for those children under the age of 20 who want to surf the Internet in large quantities, they have to wait until After 2008, Internet tariffs have dropped, and it will be completely rolled out in the United States.

So at this time, the Internet is basically full of Atari's remnant fans, and it's amazing that Atari has a lot of black fans because of all kinds of stupid things.

But with the passage of time, after Atari disappeared for more than ten years, that is, after those black fans grew up for more than ten years, time quickly washed away the resentment of that year. In its place are fond memories of my own childhood.

It's like if Tencent suddenly disappeared in the future, after more than ten years, the black fans of Tencent will also feel endless nostalgia for Tencent... probably...

Atari also naturally obtained the filter effect and became the good partner who accompanied them in their childhood memories, so when they saw the news of Atari's rebirth, they couldn't help but get excited.

Just like a company president like Billy Howard, when he saw the news of Atari's rebirth, he couldn't help but forget his original purpose.

But when he reacted, he could only find helplessly that the entire Internet was swamped by Atari, not to mention that Ya's Amway announced that it would hold a special same-year garden party in three days, inviting all Atari players used to go to visit and play, the most important thing is that it is free, and they will also announce a lot of important news on the spot.

There is one thing to say, when Billy Howard saw the news, he couldn't help but want to attend, even though the venue of the fair was hundreds of kilometers away from him, spanning two states , but Billy Howard still uses an impulse.

How obsessed he was with Atari back then, how nostalgic he is for Atari today.

No, let's go back to work!
Billy Howard knocked himself on the head, woke himself up from his childhood dream, and then looked at the online list in front of him in pain. He understood that he might fail again this time, because there is no one in this world. The news can suppress Atari's rebirth, unless the plane crashes again.

"But what should I do?" Seeing that even though he invested 20 or 130 million navy accounts, he still couldn't occupy the Weibo homepage. Howard was completely desperate.

He was silent for a long time, then picked up his cell phone, dialed Edward Zamp, and told the situation helplessly.He expressed the hope that he could delay for a while, and wait until the news of Atari's rebirth has passed before attacking.

"How many times have you delayed?" Edward Zamp asked unceremoniously after hearing Billy Howard's request.

"The third...the third time..." Billy Howard said nah.

"Yes, I asked you to start the layout half a month ago, and gave you a total of 900 million US dollars, but you still want me to continue to delay?" Edward Zamp scolded angrily, "I won't wait any longer, I will I can give you three days, but I only give you three days before continuing, but within three days, I will see the scandal in Jiangnan spread all over the country."

"Don't think that I don't know how much of the 900 million US dollars you actually used, so I don't care about you, I just need to see the effect, if you can't finish it, I will definitely let you spit out the 900 million US dollars !” After speaking, Edward Zamp hung up the phone angrily.

Well, Edward Zamp was so angry that he forgot to tell Billy Howard that Jiangnan Group and Miguo Priority Group were actually behind Atari.

"Sir, what should we do?" the secretary asked cautiously.

"What else can I do, just bite the bullet, it seems that I won't make any money this time!" Billy Howard wailed, and then began to work even crazier.

First of all, Billy Howard directly took out another 20 US dollars to buy all the firepower of these navy companies that he is currently cooperating with, and at the same time took out another 20 to find those navy companies that have not yet cooperated. , and bought the firepower in their hands.

But that’s not enough, Billy Howard mobilized almost all his contacts, plus a huge fee of 300 million US dollars, began to contact the media under various routes, and then very simply said that 3000 US dollars will be purchased for a big news on a paper media, $1 buys prime-time news from a local TV station, and $5 buys prime-time news from a national outlet.

In the end, he also found NBC and other TV media, and bought a special continuous report from them at a price of 50 US dollars each.

A total of 400 million U.S. dollars has been invested in this huge amount of money, and the effect is absolutely immediate.So the next day, the news about Jiangnan Group's theft of scientists' chip technology finally broke out on the entire network, and the momentum was not much lower than the news about Atari's rebirth. This time, it finally became a hot news.

Soon, the next day, under the arrangement of Billy Howard, NBC organized an investigation team to directly investigate the truth in China.

Well, I don’t know how an investigation team landed directly in Huaxia without any prior preparation. Even if all the preparation time is excluded, you will have to sit on the plane for more than 20 hours to get there China.

As a result, people started miraculously on the spot, first with the standard BBC underworld filter, and then shooting various shots of police patrolling with guns and live ammunition, and the shots were deliberately made very low, giving people a condescending view of the police your perspective.

Then I started to visit various so-called insiders. Of course, these insiders did not disclose their names, let alone their positions. Although such an identity is not even vague.

During the interview, these people also had thick marks on their faces, and then they were interviewed in standard English, recalling the story that happened two years ago.

In their mouths, Professor Chen was originally a decent, successful, enthusiastic and sunny professor who led a dozen students, selflessly dedicated to academic research, and determined to develop his own chip despite hardships and hardships.

As a result, on the day when Professor Chen's new film was released, he was arrested by the police, and then completely disappeared. It was not until a few months later that the news came that he had gone to the United States.

Then the reporters began to investigate who was behind the scenes, and they immediately began to be vague. After being questioned by the reporters again and again, they finally told the truth with some fear, that is, all of this is Jiangnan Group dry.

For example, the Jiangnan Group has long been coveting Professor Chen's chip, trying to obtain Professor Chen's technology, even if it is offering various high prices, but Professor Chen has severely rejected it.

The reason is that he believes that Jiangnan Group is a dark company, which is full of various shady activities. If his chip technology, which represents the world's leading level, falls into the hands of Jiangnan Group, it will definitely cause damage to world peace and cause serious damage to the world. Huge damage, even destroying the lighthouse of the world in the United States.

Anyway, in their mouths, it is almost equivalent to the huge lethality of an atomic bomb explosion.

So for the sake of world peace, Professor Chen refused, and then he was arrested, and then he disappeared, and then Jiangnan Group has the world's leading storage chip technology, which has earned unimaginable profits all over the world. Huge profits, and finally a mobile phone of the same level as Tianxing 5 was produced, all of which are Professor Chen's technology!
Good guy, as soon as this documentary was broadcast, the Jiangnan Group was completely popular.
