"According to the feedback from my technical staff, the technical level of the DOS system is similar to that of cp/m. Even if DOS is more advanced, it is still quite limited!"

"The reason for the disparity in selling prices should be related to copyright issues. The DOS sold by IBM is not an exclusive copyright, but is authorized by a company called Microsoft to sell on their behalf. The licensing fees for non-exclusive copyrights are definitely different from those of exclusive copyright agents.

To put it simply, IBM purchases the operating system .dos at a lower purchase price, that’s all!”

In front of him were hard drives with two operating systems installed, and in his ears was Carter's temptation that was like a devil's whisper. Director Tang was already very excited, but he didn't expect that Carter hadn't finished his words yet!

"About dos cooperation, if it can work, this is what I think:"

"First of all, as long as the core instruction function of all the results developed based on the DOS system has not changed, no matter how far we improve it based on it, the ownership of the results is mine! Including the right to use it to obtain commercial benefits.

, you are not allowed to use it for other purposes without permission or authorization!”

"Secondly, as a reward for Tsinghua's intellectual labor, during the development of the DOS project, I will provide you with scientific research funding support of no less than 50,000 US dollars and a living allowance of no less than 100,000 RMB each year. You can take the US dollars

Come subscribe to our scientific research journals in the United States, Europe, or Japan, or buy equipment... It's up to you to decide, even if you use it in other disciplines, it's okay, I only care about the results..."

"Are you serious? Fifty thousand US dollars, other subjects..."

"Old Liu!

This is what our accounting department has earned through hard work, don’t even think about it!”

The foreign exchange support of 50,000 US dollars instantly made the three people at Tsinghua University look at each other with caution. God knows how much scientific research funding their entire school can obtain in this year and month...

Not to mention, this is US dollars that can directly purchase foreign scientific journals!

"Mr. Carter, don't worry! As long as you give us a goal, I will personally take charge and help you keep an eye on the project. Even if I don't sleep, we can get it for you!"

Secretary Tang held down Liu Baicheng's hand, and Director Tang quickly expressed his stance to Carter by patting his chest. For a moment, the division of labor and cooperation between the two was like a tacit understanding...

"We at Tsinghua University do not lack geniuses, and we Chinese are not stupider than any other country. We just lack some experience and a platform that allows us to learn and use what we have learned!"

"I believe it! So I came..."

Carter smiled and nodded, turning a blind eye to Liu Baicheng's pleading look.

"After signing the cooperation agreement, my funds can be received at any time!"

···

···

"Mr. Carter, I thank you on behalf of those scientific researchers!"

After coming out of the restaurant, Carter clearly felt that the way Han Xue, including Squad Leader Wang, looked at him had changed. It used to be just to complete the task and show polite respect, but after the cooperation intention was discussed this time, it completely changed.

Respect that comes from the heart.

"I will report the situation later! I believe it will pass!"

"Don't say that. Didn't I just say that! I can make money, and it's not for nothing. I leave this system to you to help me develop it, which can save me a lot of research and development costs!"

"You can't say that... Maybe you really have the purpose of making money, but we have a saying that one's actions do not matter one's heart! From an objective point of view, the subsidy you provide can allow at least 200 scientific researchers to work without any pressure.

Investing in scientific research; financial support can also allow us to learn more cutting-edge technologies and scientific and technological achievements, allowing us to clarify our direction."

"This is all..."

"Oh, okay, stop talking! I'm blushing if I keep talking! Go back to the hotel and rest quickly. I'm helping out at Tsinghua University during this period. You can take a rest or do other things. You don't have to follow me all the time.

!”

When the enthusiasm for buying land gradually dissipated, Carter suddenly realized that there seemed to be not much he could do in China at this stage...

Stay in Tsinghua University, follow up on the establishment of the office, and promote school-enterprise cooperation. At the same time, you can also experience the youth that you have only seen in movies, why not?

"Well... Let Squad Leader Wang follow you. It will be more convenient to have a car to and from the State Guesthouse. I have to help you coordinate the shop you want to buy, the property rights delivery of the courtyard, the office and the project we just discussed. I

I won’t accompany you anymore!”

"Okay, thank you for your hard work. Also, don't go back to the State Guesthouse. Just find another hotel nearby! There are many guards there, it's too serious, I feel panicked..."

"Okay...I'll try my best to help you coordinate beds! Squad Leader Wang, go around Tsinghua University to find a hotel!"

Coordinate beds?!

Carter is a little confused...

If Han Xue helped arrange the accommodation, Carter would understand. After all, in these days, foreign-related units are often under supervision, and ordinary hotels would not allow him to stay overnight if they were not qualified to receive foreign guests.

But... Carter picked his ears...

"Secretary Han, what you just said was bed coordination?!"

"Yes, it's a bit late now. If you don't go back to the State Guesthouse, most hotels may be full. I still recommend that you go back to the State Guesthouse to stay. The conditions are good and you can have a better rest..."

"No, no, I'd better live outside! Really, if you say that I'm a humble citizen with at least a little money, I feel uncomfortable living in a place like that!"

When Carter came to China in this era, he was already prepared to endure hardships. In other words, he was prepared to enjoy hardships!

Because for many people of this era, the environment was very difficult and uncomfortable, but for Carter, who was born at the turn of the century, it became a different kind of experience.

Just like when you get tired of eating big fish and meat, farm food becomes a delicacy...

However, Carter, who had no intuitive understanding of this era, was soon severely beaten by reality...

When the car carrying Carter parked at the entrance of a hotel, he pushed open the creaking wooden door. Squad leader Wang entered first, and after warily scanning around the dumbfounded crowd in the hotel, Han Xue and Carter walked side by side.

enter.

"Do you still have beds here? It's best to have a single room! This is my ID. There is a foreign guest who needs to stay overnight!"

"No! Leader... you see, all the extra beds in the corridor are full... If you had come earlier, you would still have a seat, now... unless you are rushing to get there!"

While Han Xue was talking to the person in charge of the hotel, Carter resisted the strong smell of sweat, wrinkled his nose and walked inside. Under the gaze of curious eyes, Carter took a look at the first floor of the hotel.

Both ends.

In the already narrow corridor, small wooden beds with a width of less than 1.2 meters are lined up one after another. Luggage and packages, large and small, are piled from the bottom of the bed to the head of the bed...

As the footsteps approached, a stronger smell of sweat and foot odor hit my face. Then look at the eyes of the shirtless men looking at me...

"I was wrong, let's go back! Just be more depressed..."
