Reborn in America, I'm serious about making money.

August 28, 1990, was a day Sandra found hard to let go of. CEO Warren invited her into his office, where he first gently advised her, "The company is so successful now, you're completely financially independent, you can relax and do whatever you want..."

At the time, she was in her prime, how could she possibly leave like that? She immediately said, "I have no plans to retire. I'm still young, why would I leave? This is the company I founded..."

Sandra, growing increasingly angry, began to lash out, while Valen, who had been all smiles just moments before, suddenly became furious. He coldly declared, "We don't need you anymore. Today is your last day at the company."

When asked about firing Sandra, Sequoia explained that one day seven senior executives came to his office and confronted him, saying, "If the shrew doesn't leave, they're all going to resign; it's either her or us..."

These are all rumors, and the outside world has no way of knowing the specifics. After Sandra left that day, her ex-husband Leon also immediately submitted his resignation.

Shortly after the two left, they had a dispute with their former angel investor and major shareholder Sequoia Capital over equity, which was eventually settled between the two parties.

John immediately contacted the two men and bought their shares, which were worth $1.7 million.

According to the original plan, the couple would have cleared out their $1.7 million shares by the end of 1990, but they did so earlier, and the shares were bought by New Time Company as soon as the dispute between the two parties was resolved.

Newspace has become Cisco's second-largest shareholder, holding 27.6% of the shares.

This announcement immediately attracted widespread attention; not because of the number of shares held by the other party, but because New Space is the major shareholder of NT-MS after its restructuring and relisting, holding 56% of the shares.

New Space has consistently invested in these high-tech industries, leading many to believe that it is a high-tech company.

Moreover, its NTOS has redefined the operating system and made it an industry giant. It can be said that the entire computer industry will usher in a new spring.

There are 200 million computers sold worldwide. Based on their minimum 286 configuration, more than 100 million computers will need to have their operating systems replaced.

That's not all. NTOS has also updated its development tools, providing a visual development tool that will greatly reduce the workload of development. Moreover, the price is not expensive, only $168, which comes with an instruction manual and related basic teaching materials.

Why is it so cheap?

Of course, this was to enrich the content of NTOS, and, for reasons unknown, the second-generation NTOS will be named WINDOWS95.

During the briefing, CEO John explained, "NTOS brought a ray of light to the technology industry. This ray of light shone in from WINDOWS, so let's name this system WINDOWS."

The software engineers at Microsoft are now fully focused on optimizing NTOS, collaborating with INTE to comprehensively optimize both hardware and software for better compatibility.

On the day NT-MS was launched, John made a statement: "...We are a pure system vendor and office software developer, and we will not bundle any software unrelated to the system into the system..."

This is because Zhang San is afraid of repeating MS's old mistakes and launching an anti-monopoly investigation against the company.

In order to avoid antitrust investigation, Zhang San will also prepare another operating system, which will later become the original Android, an embedded system adapted to RISC chips.

In this way, no one should sue him for antitrust violations anymore, right? Moreover, he will keep a very low profile, making it impossible for anyone to find fault with him.

Of course, if some people are targeting you, there's nothing you can do but confront them head-on, otherwise they'll think you're easy to bully.

Just as things were getting turbulent in North America, Zhang San was also nearing the end of his trading. The Nikkei 225 index had fallen from 33177 points to 22153 points. Although it was still declining, Zhang San couldn't wait any longer and wanted to cash out as soon as possible.

When he made up his mind, the Nikkei 225 had already fallen below 22000 points.

"Initiate closing out positions!"

Zhang San gave the order in an unquestionable tone: those who had been in the trading room for nearly three months were to immediately begin closing their positions.

They also realized that after this liquidation, they might be free, and they wouldn't have to look at this data in this small place anymore.

These rooms were spread across several floors, and they didn't know that they weren't the only group.

"Boss, group 1302 has been closed out."

Upon hearing his assistant's report, Zhang San pondered for a moment and said, "Send them away in two batches. Have them buy different plane tickets and transfer the money to their accounts in Hong Kong. Whether they pay taxes or spend it first is up to them."

"Remember, you must tell them about the confidentiality agreement."

"Okay, boss."

Group 1302 is the floor they are on, so the group is named after the floor. Looking down from the top floor, several cars slowly drive out of the building's basement, with intervals of ten minutes to half an hour between them.

The final destination of these cars is the airport, where they will board planes to travel around the world.

Shortly after, the assistant reported, "Boss, they've been put on the plane."

Zhang San nodded, then told him to keep an eye on these people. He began making arrangements to transfer some funds to several overseas fund accounts. Zhang San had many such fund accounts.

During the afternoon market break, the assistant came over and said, "The 1505 and 903 groups have completed their closing positions."

"Let's see them off tomorrow morning. They'll have to stay another night."

Zhang San naturally couldn't let them go out at night; it would be bad if something went wrong, and he would be responsible for them.

By the end of September, everyone had been sent away, leaving only the assistant. Zhang San had already left with the last few groups of people.

The assistant stayed behind to handle the cleanup work; not only closing those accounts, which could take a year or two, but also renting out the company's office building.

When the final payment of one hundred million US dollars arrived, Zhang San finally smiled; he hadn't expected such a windfall.

After analysis, Zhang San's average short position in Nikkei 225 futures was 32171 points, while the average closing position was 21127 points. With a margin deposit of $15 billion, after deducting various fees, he made a profit of slightly over $4 billion. Adding the initial investment, he had over $55 billion in cash.
