Coquettish Rebirth

Disappointed, the chairman of the board of directors lightly announced the news of "recommending" Andy Grove's retirement, and the scene fell silent.This kind of silence makes people feel like the tranquility of the storm!Andy Grove froze for a moment, then frowned and asked, "What? Say it again?"

"On behalf of Intel's board of directors, thank you very much for your dedication to our company over the years. But today, we feel that enough is enough. Maybe we Intel should go through the Andy Grove era and start a new journey. ..." The chairman of the board of directors tried to choose not so offensive words.

As a result, he hadn't finished talking here, but he saw Andy Grove suddenly furious like an angry lion! "How dare you!" Grove was so angry that he went around the board of directors' table and aimed at the chairman. It looked like he just wanted to beat up the chairman of the board of directors!At that time, the directors rushed out to stop Andy Grove!One person can't be two, two people can't be three, this Andy Grove is obviously an old man in his decades, but he barely stopped after five people were hung on his body!But even so, he was still roaring! "How dare you? Do you know who I am? I am Andy Grove! I am the founder of this company, how dare you expel me? Who gave you the courage? You guys are a bunch of money but nothing You bastards who don’t understand anything! You don’t understand anything! I’m going to kill you!”

"Security, security! Call security!" The chairman of the board of directors was like a girl being bullied by a boy, and she was so frightened that she not only left her seat.And he was scared to avoid Grove around the oval table!Grove took a few steps, and the chairman hurriedly ran in the opposite direction. A good board of directors suddenly turned into a brawl in a tavern!

After jumping around for a while, the security guards finally rushed over. "Security, get Andy Grove under control! Coax him away!" The chairman of the board of directors shouted in embarrassment, with the tie on his collar crooked, and half of his reading glasses hanging on his ear and half on his mouth. road. "Hurry up, drive away? He is..." When did the security guards want to drive the company's eo out of the company?Can they not be stunned?

"He's nothing now! Drive him away. He's not allowed to enter Intel again! Hurry up!" The chairman of the board shouted in a sharp voice, which didn't sound like an old man, but rather like being scared by a mouse Like the old lady who arrived!

"You bastards, I'm going to kill you! I'm going to kill you!" Andy Grove said anyway.They are all old men in their decades.In one white and one black.Clamped by two burly men with a height of 190 and a weight of 200 jins, his whole body was caught in the air, and then he was caught and walked away!But even if you go.The ferocious expression on his face is just like that of a ghost!And even if he was dragged out of the conference room, his roars continued to come from the corridor!

Seeing that Andy Grove finally left, the old men in the meeting room started to organize their clothes and image one by one.After the chairman of the board sorted out his embarrassing image for a while, Nai shook his head, "I said a long time ago that we should change the dynasty, and you still don't believe it! Hey, I said that Andy's personality is too hot, he He belonged to World War II, his character is only suitable for the war years of entrepreneurship! Now is the peaceful age of entrepreneurship, we need a more gentle and friendly leader, not such a combative, angry, A leader who has a strong desire to rule!"

After the old man finished speaking, the embarrassed directors nodded subconsciously.It turned out that before Jia Hongjian challenged Andy Grove, Intel's board of directors had held several meetings to discuss the matter of letting Andy Grove leave.This Andy Grove's personality is too hot, the whole person is like a lion, aggressive and violent.This Andy Grove has always thought about killing m, the only competitor that has survived from ancient times, but the board of directors thinks that this is not possible!To know that the US Fair Trade Commission is not stupid, they will allow Intel to kill all competitors?Originally, Intel killed everyone else, leaving only one m, which is enough! m is only a fraction of Intel's market value, isn't it good to keep such an opponent who doesn't have many opportunities to threaten him?Raise a thief to be self-respecting! [

But what about Andy Grove?That is to really destroy all opponents!For example, Transmeta, which came out two years ago, honestly, the board of directors felt that such a small company had just been established. Although it was listed immediately, and the market value exceeded m even before the product came out, what technology accumulation could their company have?Can it fight Intel?So even if Intel keeps such a small company, it can show its generosity!It is absolutely possible to keep Transmeta and m to compete for the rest of Intel's market!

However, Andy Grove is determined to kill all these competing companies, even if the other party seems to be far from being able to threaten Intel!Well, that's all, but when Andy Grove was running it, he didn't care much about the low-end market!Even at the end of last year, Andy privately proposed to release a pu product with a price of up to 99 US dollars in 900!Then put the product with the lowest price up!OMG, $900 product, is this crazy?Even if the market is constantly expanding, how much does a complete set of computers cost for a 900-dollar pu? $3000?This price will directly shrink the market, okay?

Due to these conflicts of understanding, it can be said that Intel’s board of directors has long proposed to let Andy retire, especially since Andy was on the cover of Time Magazine at the beginning of this year, and he is 62 years old this year. It's a good time to retire!However, some people in the board of directors think that Andy should be given some time...

Well, give it time, this Andy directly caused rebellion everywhere!Actually, Andy is still thinking about killing m completely. Doesn't he know that it is impossible for the United States to allow oligarchs to appear?If m is about to be wiped out, someone will definitely stand up and ask Intel to give m interest loans or even provide various technologies for free - so as to keep competitors alive!This kind of thing is not unheard of!For example, in the early 90s, wasn’t it because the U.S. military wanted more than two chip suppliers that it backed the court’s ruling that Intel lost the case?Doesn't Intel have to give all the information to m for free?Does this Andy want to do it again?Since he is definitely not going to die, why waste all his energy to cripple him, and then replenish his blood by himself?This is fun ah?

In addition, now, HP, Compaq, and Dell are all about to break up, saying that they will turn around next year!This kind of time is obviously the time to go to Huairou to win over the other party!After all, the other party did not say that Intel would be abandoned now, but that it would be next year. Isn't the time in between implying that Intel will persuade them?But this Grove still wants to destroy the opponent!Yes, he can kill the other party, but after killing the other party, how much will the stock price of Intel, a listed company, drop?For the members of the board of directors, their assets have shrunk!It's equivalent to Andy Grove, using the money of their shareholders to destroy others!Shareholders can agree to this?

Therefore, when everyone saw that Andy Grove was unwilling to use gentle means in the end, the shareholders knew that fate was gone!So let Andy Grove retire decently, but who knew that Andy Grove was still so aggressive in the end, as if this was not Intel's board meeting room, but the Colosseum in ancient Rome!What the hell is this?Sven sweeps the floor!What a gentleman!

"Directors, let's discuss next. Who is the company's next eo? I personally propose Barrett. As for Barrett, we all know that he pays more attention to the low-end market. I also agree that the low-end market is the main source of profit. And he is softer, more friendly, and more willing to change the focus of our pu design from computing to conforming to the Internet era and multimedia applications..."

Jia Hongjian would never have imagined that he would get revenge on Intel, and he would be able to get rid of Intel's eo by luck!He would never dream of such a thing, because he would never believe that he would have such good luck!After all, he is not a member of Intel's board of directors, and he would not have thought that Intel's board of directors had actually been unhappy with Andy Grove for a long time.However, his revenge on Intel really became a fuse.He led a buggy company like ms to challenge Intel arrogantly, and then he also brought all kinds of coquettish positioning and lewd consciousness, plus various complicated designs. Such a combination punched Andig Roof's most tyrannical emotions were aroused, and then he lost his mind, broke with the board of directors, and finally led to Grove's resignation...

When he knew about it, it was that night.When he was having dinner with the old man Olsen, he only heard the news anchorwoman on TV say, "Intel's board of directors announced that the former eo Andy Grove had resigned due to health reasons, and the board of directors appointed Barrett as Intel The new eo. Its board of directors denied Intel's move, which is related to HP and other three companies' statement that they will choose m processor products next year..."

When he saw this, Jia Hongjian was dumbfounded!He couldn't believe his ears and eyes!What?Intel's eo replaced?at such a time?For physical reasons?How can this be so fast... It seems that Andy Grove was resigned because of his actions?real or fake?Come on, do you have this ability? (to be continued...)
