Chapter 556: Reasons to believe

"Eric, I have to admit that you have successfully won the friendship of everyone in the company, including mine."
"And I."
Tan Zhenhua smiled and touched the wine glass full of juice with Herman and Chris who came over, and then said: "Mr. Herman, Mr. Chris, I thought you two would not like me."
Herman shrugged slightly and said, "Why? Eric, because you have become the new boss of this company? No, in fact, Chris and I have been thinking about how to integrate the business of this small company. Sustained and worried, and the current situation is the best result I can think of."
Chris continued: "Yes, Eric, you don't have to worry about the two of us at all. After all, you have spent a lot of money to buy most of our shares, and you have reserved for each of me and Herman. 5% of the equity, in fact, you should know that the current business situation of our Acorn company is not too good..."
"I'm afraid it can't be described as not too good, my dear Chris, in my opinion, it should be very bad." Tan Zhenhua smiled and corrected Chris' words.
Chris’s face turned red from the
swipe
, and he couldn’t help looking at his partner and friend, Herman, who started the business together, and the latter asked after a little thought:
Then, Eric, since you know Acorn's business situation is not good, why did you buy it again?"
Tan Zhenhua smiled and shrugged his shoulders and said, "I don't know, maybe, it's because I like this name? Oak Seed, it's really an interesting name..."
"...Well, it seems that you don’t believe me. Well, I’m telling the truth. It’s actually because I’m studying electronics at Stanford, and I happen to have some technical ideas. I want to find a suitable platform to experiment. So I bought your company easily..."
"Why don't you still believe it? What about the most basic trust between people? Okay, I surrendered. The truth of the matter is that I have a supernatural power. In short, I can foresee the future, and what I foresee In the future, our company will grow into the world's most successful chip research and development company, and will rub another guy named Intel on the ground..."
Looking at the two faces on the opposite side that were full of bewilderment and about to collapse, Tan Zhenhua stopped the blow that was gradually unable to stop the car, and said helplessly: "Actually, the last thing I said is the truth, but if you don’t believe me, I can’t help it. Well, then, let’s say a reason you are willing to believe, Herman, Chris, do you know the largest IT order in Britain at the moment?"
Herman replied without even thinking:
Of course we know that it is the personal computer education program launched by the BBBMicro joint government under the BBB Broadcasting Corporation. For this program, BBB also specially shot a popular science documentary "Powerful "The Microprocessor" was also broadcast on TV. I heard that this plan will equip every classroom in all middle schools in Britain with a personal computer within a year. The total order may reach tens of thousands..."
"To be precise, it is 17,200." Tan Zhenhua interrupted with a smile.
"What, Eric, how can you know so clearly? Could it be..."
Tan Zhenhua nodded inexplicably, "Yes, it's the "is it" you said. So, do you think I have a good reason?"
"Oh, my God, I always thought that such a huge order is completely insulated from our small company, so I didn't even read the tender document carefully. Hey, Chris, have you read it? "
The surprised Chris shook his head blankly and said: "Neither did I, just like you. I never thought about the intersection of such an order with our company."
"O, it, are we going to miss such an order? No, no, I will never allow it, Eliza, Eliza, see if we can get this tender from where..."
"Herman, Herman," Tan Zhenhua had to call several times before he calmed the anxious Herman, then took out a stack of documents from the small bag beside him and stuffed it into his hand: "Look at what this is first."
Herman hurriedly took the document handed over by Tan Zhenhua. As soon as he looked at the cover, he laughed and hugged Chris on the side. Then he began to read it carefully, and he muttered, "This is a tender. This is a technical requirement, this is a bid description..."
"Ah, the deadline for bidding written on this is 10 am on October 31, 1982, Chris, can you tell me what date is today?"
"Unfortunately, today is October 30, 1982..." Tan Zhenhua replied for Chris.
"Oh, Fuck, Fuck." Herman cursed, raising his hand to look at the watch on his wrist, and muttering: "It's 1:12 noon, that is, we have 21 hours and 48 minute……"
"Eliza, Eliza, you can ask everyone if they have finished eating, and we will start to work after we finish eating. We are going to work all night today, yes, all night!"
Herman was already yelling and preparing to organize people to start work, but Chris frowned slightly and looked at Tan Zhenhua and asked: "Eric, I know that it’s not appropriate to ask, but you really have Are you sure?"
He thought for a while and then added: "I don't mean anything else, but I'm so excited to see Herman's appearance. If there is no result this time, I think he will be very disappointed."
Tan Zhenhua smiled and said, "Of course I have some, but Chris, I participate in the government's bidding. Before the final result comes out, everything is possible, right? So, I can't guarantee anything. But I think, at least, we have to try. Anyway, we won’t really lose anything, right?"
Chris thought about it slightly, and then smiled: "Yes, you are right, we won't lose anything if we try."
Tan Zhenhua continued: "Look, I have tested Miss Eliza's abilities in advance, and I am very satisfied. The lunch she prepared for us is very delicious. I think dinner shouldn't let us down, right? Ok?"
Chris also smiled: "Yes, lunch is very delicious, and people are also full of expectations for dinner, then, Eric, I'm busy, you can do it yourself."
"Okay Chris, I will take care of myself, oh yes, there is one more small matter, please tell Herman later, can you please fill in the unit price column of 500 pounds?"
Chris, who had already turned around, looked back at Tan Zhenhua in astonishment, but found that the latter was winking at him narrowly.
He is really sure. Chris said to himself in his heart, where will this young Chinese man take the little Acorn company?
