Chapter 557 Chambers serves as general manager of supercomputer software company
after one day.
Not surprisingly.
Yang Ming has learned that Jack Welch has officially rejected his invitation.
It is basically impossible for Jack Welch to leave General Electric, which has been struggling for so long. This is not only due to salary and benefits, but also involves status, reputation, influence, etc. Yang Ming cannot give it. he.
Jack Welch was still a little moved when Yang Ming invited him to work in a supercomputer software company and offered him a very high salary, which almost made him tempted.
In other words, Jack Welch did not agree to be a supercomputer software company, so he and Yang Ming got to know each other, and maybe the two parties could cooperate in the future.
Since Jack Welch did not agree, it was also expected by Yang Ming.
His second favorite scout.
John Chambers, who is still working at IBM, saw that someone came to him and it was Sir Yang, the chairman of Imperial Group, he did not hesitate at all.
Although he has not resigned yet, he has already flown to San Francisco from New York International Airport near Armonk, where IBM is headquartered.
It was already afternoon when he arrived at Conner Manor in San Francisco's Silicon Valley.
Yang Ming, Azhu, Zhong Chuhong, and He Chaoluo, who was not in class, were playing golf with him.
There is no golf course at Connor Manor itself.
When Yang Ming saw how big the manor was and how many lawns there were, he asked Lin Dezhong to hire someone to come back and build a small golf course.
The afternoon sunshine in Silicon Valley is now a little over 20 degrees Celsius, which is a very comfortable time.
When Chambers first saw Sir Young.
Years later, he remains impressed.
When Sir Yang was exposed to the sun, he felt that he looked really different from other Chinese and even white people.
"Master Yang, Mr. Chambers is here."
Chambers is here?
Yang Ming did not wait for Jack Welch, but he was still very happy when he waited for Chambers.
The real candidate in his mind is the greatest professional manager in Cisco, whose achievements are actually not inferior to those of Jack Welch.
The most important thing is that the opponent is still in a low position and has strong plasticity, so loyalty to Yang Ming can be cultivated.
It’s hard to say for a veteran like Jack Welch.
"Sir Yang." Chambers, who was just thirty-one years old, was wearing a suit and looked elegant.
"Ball first."
Yang Ming asked Azhu to hand another set of clubs to Chambers.
In Country M, playing golf is a very common thing. Even ordinary people in Country M can play it. Unlike in Xiangjiang, those who are not rich or middle class basically have few opportunities to get into golf.
Chambers' parents are both doctors.
In country M, doctors belong to the high-income class. His family has good financial conditions and he is a top student.
It’s just that the previous work was not very smooth.
Chambers did not expect that Sir Yang would invite him to play golf together as soon as he arrived.
Yang Ming and Chambers fought there for more than an hour without saying much.
People are like that. The more you get along with them, the more familiar they become.
After Yang Ming and Chambers gave the club to the servant.
The two of them sat down in the garden.
Yang Ming looked at Chambers and said, "Mr. Chambers, drink water first. I have something very important to talk to you about."
After Chambers drank water.
Go to the study room with Yang Ming.
In the study room, Yang Ming said: "That's it. You should also know about the Super Computer Software Company. Now it has launched its first new product, Windows 1 system. However, the management of the Super Computer Software Company now belongs to Future Capital. Management is in charge, and I hope that Supercomputer Software will become one of the largest companies in the world. I have been looking for new candidates to serve as general managers of Supercomputer Software, including Jack Wei, Vice Chairman of General Electric. Erqi.”
General Electric Vice Chairman Jack Welch?
Of course Chambers knows.
However, he believes that Jack Welch is unlikely to leave GE.
"Welch considered that he had worked hard at General Electric all his life. Even though I made a very good offer, he still refused. In addition to him, there is also you."
he?
Chambers?
Chambers was surprised.
How does my current identity compare with Jack Welch?
This is simply incomparable.
This made him happy and puzzled.
He didn't know where Sir Yang knew him from?
As far as IBM is concerned now, it has more than 300,000 employees and tens of thousands of managers. He is considered a very ordinary executive of IBM. He really can't understand why Sir Yang knows about his existence.
Chambers didn't know.
That's because Yang Ming comes from the future.
"Because someone recommended you to me."
Who is this person?
Yang Ming didn't say anything.
Although Chambers was curious, he didn't ask any more questions.
He had to thank that person.
"Chambers, I wonder if you would like to leave IBM and become the general manager of a supercomputer software company?"
willing?
Why not?
For such a position, Sir Yang even considered the vice chairman of General Electric Company. Compared with Jack Welch, he was far behind.
It was equivalent to Sir Yang raising his status.
"Sir Yang, I am willing, but I'm afraid that I won't be able to do it well."
"I believe in your ability."
Of course Yang Ming believed in his ability.
Historically, in 1991, Cisco Chairman Morgan Rich, who had a keen eye for talents, made Chambers join Cisco as his heir.
Chambers initially served as a senior executive in Cisco's global operations division, when Cisco's annual sales were only $7 million.
After entering the company, Chambers brought new development ideas to Cisco and participated in the formulation of a series of major decisions for the company.
In 1994, Chambers was promoted to executive vice president, responsible for the leadership of Cisco's R&D, manufacturing, global sales, marketing and support departments. In 1995, Morgan Rich handed over the position of president of the company to Chambers. .
When Chambers joined Cisco Systems as vice president in January 1991, the company's sales revenue that year was only $1 million, with a market value of $7000 million.
During his five years as President and CEO, which began in January 1995, Cisco Systems established a leading position in major areas of the Internet industry. By fiscal year 1, Cisco Systems' sales revenue reached $5 billion, a market Its value once exceeded US$1999 billion, making it one of the top ten most competitive companies in the world.
How could Yang Ming not believe in such a talent?
"Now I have negotiated with three computer companies, IBM, HP, and Toyo, and their computers will all use Windows systems. In my opinion, this is not enough. We also need to establish our own sales channels, including a gold medal sales model. We want to push Windows systems to all computer owners around the world, even large state-owned enterprises and large companies around the world."
