Chapter 271 Seattle's Taco

"I see that you have a very harmonious relationship with each other!"

After Rod Bullock confirmed that there were no problems with the new accounts, the two of Carter returned to Bellevue. On the way back in the car, Carter complimented casually.

Seattle Computer Company, Microsoft, and DRI called Digital Research Corporation, one is engaged in hardware, one is engaged in software compilation language, and the other is engaged in operating systems and supporting commercial software. At first glance, these three companies look like an iron triangle.

of...

Or called the Three Kingdoms, each guarding its own three-quarter acre of land, not infringing on each other, and at the same time cooperating with each other. Even a programmer in *** can directly complain about Dri's boss Moji for not working hard.

, it feels like it affects your own progress...

While it's funny, it also has a sense of CP for some reason.

"Hahaha, indeed. We are all in the same industry, and they are all small companies, so naturally we have to stick together for warmth. Not only us, but IBM is also very close to Intel..."

Paul, who was holding the steering wheel, had a smile of memories on his face. Come to think of it, it was indeed a pleasure to work with these three Xijia stores...

"After all, computers are still a small industry, even though we all firmly believe that its future will be bright. But the current market is still small. Sometimes without cooperation and unity, it will be difficult for us to survive until the day when the bright future comes!"

"But now, someone in there has a problem... Did you call that Gary later? Just to ask him why?"

"No, that's the question! Besides, there's no need to ask, it's just that someone's price is lower than ours. Just like chips, everyone knows that 6502 and z80 are imitations, but everyone uses them. Even 6502

The performance is not as good as the z80, but there are more companies that choose it!”

"For most consumers, they don't need such powerful performance. Price is often the key to whether your product is good or not. But after buying it, they find that, hey, it doesn't work, and then they have to buy our external one.

Onboard cpu..."

When Paul said this, he couldn't help but cursed:

"I remember there is a saying in your finance and investment books that the market is never rational. This sentence is so damn right! Just like most of the customers we are facing now, they only know how to act foolishly.

Looking at the price, I buy someone else’s product if I think it’s cheap, but it turns out it’s not suitable for my use!”

"We turned around and bought additional software cards from us, and ended up spending more than we budgeted. People who buy soft cards really want to take into account the advantages of both, which is very small. Most of them spend more money in this way.

Big injustice!"

"But that's okay. Soft cards are a major source of income growth for us now. If everyone stays rational, our life will be difficult..."

After returning to Bellevue, life returned to normal!

Except for occasionally helping Ballmer receive some visiting customers, Carter is quite idle most of the time. There is very little administrative work in small companies, and most of it is done by Ballmer.

Ever since, in addition to occasionally guesting as a product manager, holding product seminars with Kai Nisi and other operating system development teams, and proposing several so-called customer needs and customer experiences based on the future Windows operating system,

Carter's time at Microsoft is getting shorter and shorter.

Going fishing in Lake Washington, or riding a bicycle around the lake to exercise gradually became Carter's main daily routine. At the same time, he was in Georgia.

With the Northern Trust manager poached through McKinsey in place, a trust business department was officially established within Black Bank. The first task was: SR-166 Highway Trust.

Three exploration and mapping teams are already at work. The demolition working group is also in preparation. After the preparatory work is completed and the road design drawing is released, they will set out to communicate the relocation of residences, shops, etc. along the road.

According to the report of trust manager Taomash Connor, it is expected that the preliminary preparations will be completed in four to six months. The highway will officially enter the construction stage. The initial exploration and road design fees have also been transferred to Dog Construction's account.

, making Carter a small profit of 120,000 dollars...

The opening of ht stores has also sprung up like mushrooms after a rain. With the completion of follow-up staff training, 37 of the 50 planned stores have now opened, and 13 stores are still under construction. By the end of the month, they will be fully open. At the same time, Jina

Sri Lanka has also opened a special line for investment promotion and franchising, but this phone line may not be available in the short term.

As for the bank itself, with a stable business environment and an active market, its revenue is also quietly improving. Although from the overall profit and loss point of view, it is still losing money, the bad debt rate, capital turnover rate and other indicators have all improved.

Very obvious progress. Carter believes that after these two years, as long as the current situation is stabilized, the bank will make a profit? It will be easy!

After working like a dog for half a year, Carter suddenly looked back. Carter found that except for Argyle's investment promotion, that is, Toyota Motor, there was no result yet, the situation was great!

"Cooking wine...scallions...cilantro..."

When the situation improves, people become more relaxed. Once this person feels relaxed, he naturally has to think of ways to reward himself. It happens that there are many Chinese stores and supermarkets in Seattle on the other side of the lake.

After buying the raw materials and baking pan, Carter lit up the charcoal fire, facing the breeze by the lake, and planned to make a homemade grilled fish for lunch. He laid the tin foil on the bottom, poured in cooking wine, peppers, onions, coriander, Qianzhang and other messy ingredients.

, seasonings. If you don’t have an electric oven, grilling it over charcoal fire will give you a little fun in life~

"What you do is quite unique...is it delicious?"

The aroma of grilled fish attracted the attention of several fishing veterans nearby. Some of them put down their fishing rods and came in search of a taste...

"Eh?! How much chili pepper did you add? You don't look like Lao Mo..."

"Hahaha, who said only Mexicans like spicy food? Let's try it together later?"

"Hey, thank you, this tastes...I, I admit it's very fragrant, but I probably can't eat such spicy food, so forget it. Besides, I bought a taco for lunch, and the spiciness was enough for me.

..."

"The Jue of Extreme Chaos"

The bearded fishing old man shook his head reluctantly, and at the same time turned around and pointed at a brown paper bag on his bait box, indicating that he had prepared lunch. Just hearing Taco... Carter got excited:

"Hey, a man can't say no, come on! I have cold beer here. Food will be more delicious after sharing! Let's go together! By the way, I'm Carter Black. I've met you several times.

..”

Colleagues! You have to taste this and see it...

"Well... okay, thank you! Then I'll go get my lunch..."

"Then I'll buy a drink!"

"purchase?!"

"Yeah, I can't carry the refrigerator for fishing, right? Don't worry, the supermarket is very close. I'll be back soon, remember to take care of my fish for me!"

"The one on the oven, or the one in the fish basket?"

"All of them!"
