Chapter 1361 Half of the Loess
"Have the FBI people withdrawn?" After sending Aiden on the plane, Li Zitao returned to the car and drove towards Wells Fargo again.
As the New Year ended, Aiden was about to travel across the ocean to London.
However, this is good news for him, which means he has plenty of private time and can meet Lilith and Mason.
‘The bar in London isn’t really as boring as he said, is it?’ This is the only thing Aiden is worried about.
But he also heard that the clubs in London are full of colorful styles. Compared with the directness and rudeness of New York, there are more artistic elements in it, which makes people yearn for...
No matter what, he had already talked to Mason.
If he makes himself bored after arriving in London, Elizabeth...he will ask for his own blessing!
What he will say then, even he is not sure... being single is so willful!
After looking at the scenery outside the window for a while, Aiden felt a little bored, so he asked the flight attendant for an eye mask, leaned back and closed his eyes to rest.
Compared to luxury cruises, the facilities on the plane are really too simple.
At this time, Aiden would never have thought that before the journey began, Lilith was ready for surprise and waiting for him.
The FBI people have not withdrawn yet, but they are much more friendly than before.
The FBI is now more like a gatekeeper of the "advanced planning laboratory". He has to undergo inspections when entering and leaving every day, and there are also additional procedures for security checks in all aspects.
At the same time, inside the national defense building, a brand new military version of the main computer is being assembled and renovated, and 20 kilometers to the east are restricted and line laying is carried out.
For this reason, the Ministry of Defense spent tens of millions of dollars, and computers were not expensive, lines were expensive, and line construction and maintenance were even more expensive.
The economic benefits brought by the success of the ‘Advanced Program Lab’ are horrifying, and the entire IBM was shocked by this and expressed it in an abnormal manner; fully supporting P-T-PNS.
Although it is not as good as a timely help, it can also reduce a lot of unnecessary trouble.
I sorted out the information for a day like I did last time just to convince the board of directors, and I believe that there will be no more before new changes appear.
The terrible money-making ability is shocking, but it also comes with various restrictions.
After all, not every military base needs a large computer, and Washington is not as luxurious as that.
In addition to the one currently being established for the Ministry of Defense, the rest of the addresses in Washington are being carefully screened, and military expenditure needs to be fully considered.
Because of the dark clouds of the Cold War and the situation on the peninsula, Congress was a little more generous with military spending, but it was just a little...'
There are too many places that require money, such as maintenance and repair of warships, brand new equipment, material transformation, new generation of fighter jets, tanks, vehicles, etc.
Recruiting new recruits and retirement of veterans requires a lot of money.
Because the trouble caused by the military is not once or twice, both Washington and the military have had enough of this situation.
Therefore, they hope to solve the problem of retirement funds as limited as possible in addition to ensuring necessary military equipment, instead of using tanks to "press meat pies in front of Washington gates."
The impact of this scandal has lasted for more than 20 years and has not been weakened yet. From time to time, people will be taken out to stir-fry the rice.
The effect is always lethal. The soldiers who have spent half their lives on the country were so embarrassed that they could not make a living after they were discharged from the army and were eventually persecuted by the state...
Even if this topic lasts another century, it will be timeless.
"So, is IBM considered a contractor now?" After the meeting of Fuguo, Lawrence, Jonathan and Li Zitao got together again.
When they learned about IBM's recent situation, they were obviously very interested and admired his ability to create miracles.
Who would have thought that a computer, drilling company, would become a special supply contractor for the military?
Just the orders that have been finalized so far have a profit of more than 20 million, which is just the beginning.
"This is just the beginning." Li Zitao knew very well how crazy the future world would be.
And what kind of financial monster will the computer industry create? It simply swept the entire universe.
If the "Space Prison" had WIFI, I believe many people would be happy to be exiled.
Keep food and accommodation, watch the brilliant galaxy when you wake up, browse your phone, connect to the internet and spread the prison knowledge to everyone, and you may become popular if you are not careful...
"It's said that it's hard for mainframes to make any progress. It will take more than ten years or more to compress them, and popularization is even more out of reach. What do you think?"
Lawrence had a dog's nose, and he could smell it as long as there was a slight smell of meat.
Although his attitude towards IBM is to praise it and stomp the ground, he still believes that this industry will develop.
Just like the original TV, now it has begun to enter the families of the American people.
Popularity may be far away, but the profits are now enough to make people move.
"I don't know...it may be very likely in a few years, more than ten years, or in the next century. It depends on the speed of science progress, not what I said."
Although Li Zitao knew the future of the computer industry, in his memory, it should be until the 80s to 90s when it really began to become popular.
No one can predict whether it will accelerate now or whether it will slow down due to certain changes. All he can do is give enough support.
From rebirth to today, he has been quitting the Internet for nearly 20 years, and it is incredible to think about it.
This is really a miracle for someone who faces a computer 18 hours a day.
But my obsession with the Internet world comes from my heart, otherwise Li Zitao would not have insisted on developing the prototype of the Internet in this era.
It is different whether it is successful or not. Anyway, the seeds are planted and will sooner or later bear fruit.
He really doesn't believe that the Internet era will come later than in his previous life. If that is true, he will endure it. No matter what, IBM will definitely make a fortune.
Who in this world can be more forward-looking than him? ‘A half a century ahead of time…the abyss can provide it with clarity.’
Lawrence was not satisfied with his answer, and sometimes frowned and sometimes soothed, which seemed to be a bit shaky.
However, Jonathan was careless and seemed to care nothing, but in fact... he really didn't care.
What new industries and new eras are too troublesome for him to think about these things.
Hotels and real estate, these two things are enough for the Astor family to have no worries about food and drink, and stand among the prominent American families and will not fall.
In the future, as long as there are real estate projects, he will definitely be involved.
As for the rest, it is up to those of them who like to use their brains to do it. It is time for them to relax and enjoy life.
In the blink of an eye, half of his body was almost buried in the soil.
