Chapter 362

John Chambers was also a decisive man. After understanding the R & D progress and technical principles of large switches and multi protocol routers, he boarded the plane to San Francisco. If money can't impress the other party, then use technology and platform to attract the other party. If it doesn't work, John Howard will be dispatched. The boss asked him to accompany him. It's obvious that people should be tied even if they are tied.

This is chambers' understanding. In fact, he misunderstood the meaning of Bao Zixuan. Because John Howard's daughter is also studying at Stanford University, baozixuan wants to arrange a guide for them. In addition, John Howard can reunite with his daughter.

So the two Johns came to Stanford University, although their ideas were somewhat different. But the same goal is to bring Leonard bosack to the boss.

Stanford University, the full name of little Lilan Stanford University, referred to as "Stanford", is located in Palo Alto, south of the San Francisco Bay area, California, near the high-tech park Silicon Valley. It is a world-famous private research university. Stanford University was founded in 1885 and officially enrolled in 1891. It covers an area of about 33 square kilometers (8180 acres). It is the sixth largest university in the United States.

John Howard had called his daughter before he came. After picking up the car at the airport, the two came directly to Jenny Howard. As John Howard's daughter, Jenny perfectly inherited her father's height and looked powerful. She didn't look like a girl at all.

Jenny Howard has always been the pride of John Howard. It is estimated that no father is dissatisfied with the excellent daughter who has been admitted to one of the best universities in the United States by her own ability.

Jenny Howard: "Daddy, why do you have time to see me?"

John Howard has been the security director of black cloud's U.S. headquarters, basically in Cambridge. I'm usually busy at work. I have very little time to see others at home, not to mention my daughter who is far away from the west coast. He understands that he is really sorry for the high salary given by the boss and this trust without working hard.

John Howard: "I have something to do in your school this time. I'll come and see you by the way! Let me introduce you to my colleague, John chambers; You can call him uncle chambers. "

John Chambers smiled and said, "don't listen to your father. Just call me John. I came here mainly to ask you for help. We are not familiar with Stanford. "

Jenny Howard: no problem. Are you here to find someone

I know my father works in black cloud, and chambers, as the head of American black cloud, often appears in the media. Black cloud is a high-tech company. It has cooperation with major universities in the United States, but it must be inviting very important academic experts for chambers to come forward. Most people can't reach this level.

John Chambers: "yes, I'm here to invite Leonard bosack, director of the computer center, to work for the black cloud group. Are you familiar with him?"

Hearing the name, Jenny Howard suddenly had an idea, smiled and said, "I don't know him, but his girlfriend is my teacher. I heard they are preparing for the wedding."

John Chambers: This is really good news. Can you take me to see your teacher

After coming to business school, Jenny introduced John Chambers and sandy Lerner. Of course, sandy Lerner is no stranger to chambers, one of the most successful professional managers in the United States.

After learning about chambers's intention, sandy Lerner was very excited. After all, it was recognition of her fiance's strength. It is the dream of many university professors to cooperate with enterprises at the level of black cloud. With the products developed by black cloud becoming more and more popular in the market, the black cloud R & D mechanism has also been reported by the media. And MIT professors have changed into big houses, and the living standards of their families have risen sharply. To some extent, Stanford professors are very angry. Everyone has to support his family.

Bao Zixuan is a student of MIT. It's normal to tilt a lot of resources to his alma mater. Now that she can find her fiance, it shows that her choice is not wrong. Leonard is a talented person. His talent is finally appreciated now.

When John Chambers was taken to Leonard possack's laboratory, he saw a very familiar scene, which was basically the same as that seen by MIT, but it had not yet taken shape. R & D funding may be limited. He saw a lot of electronic components removed from other machines. All electronic components in MIT are new.

At this time, I saw a diode burn out, which may be the problem of equipment aging. Unlike Leonard possack's depression, John Chambers is very happy. This is a good opportunity. The most important thing in black cloud is money. With money, you can't buy any equipment. Who still uses second-hand ones? It seems that the work arranged by the boss will be completed soon.

Seeing her fiance's state, sandy Lerner said, "honey, take a break!"

Seeing his fiancee coming with several people, Leonard possack managed to squeeze out a smile and said, "Sandy, it's okay. It's mainly due to the overload of the equipment. Just change another one."

Stanford University is not very optimistic about this project, and the allocation of scientific research funds is not sufficient. Otherwise, it is impossible to charge a nominal royalty after successful research and development; Of course, this has something to do with the school pattern. What's more, most of the scientific research funds are from small couples. The school only provides equipment and venues, so it's embarrassed to take it for itself.

Sandy Lerner: "this is Mr. John Chambers, vice president of black cloud. I came to see you today."

Hearing that it was the vice president of the black cloud group, Leonard possack looked at chambers again. People who don't care about things outside the window; I also know the position of black cloud in the whole computer industry. Now what does the group vice president mean by coming to the door.

Leonard posack: "Hello! Mr. chambers, I wonder what's the matter with you coming to Stanford! As far as I know, most of black cloud's scientific research projects are in cooperation with MIT. "

John Chambers: "Hello! Mr. bosack, this is an invitation to join the black cloud group entrusted by the boss. Someone recommended you to him and said that you are the world's top expert in multi protocol routers. "

Leonard possack: "thank you for your kindness and for taking me to thank Mr. Bao. However, I am very happy to work at Stanford and have no plan to leave at present. "

John Chambers: don't you listen to the treatment black cloud gives you

Leonard possack: "I have no intention of leaving Stanford. It's no use having more money. If I'm unhappy while making money, I'd rather not make this money. "

Seeing what his fiancee wanted to say, Leonard continued: "Sandy, you know my character. Now what I want most is to complete this project. This is our common dream, isn't it! If we get to black cloud, it may not be our project. "

Sure enough, as the boss analyzed, this is a scientific researcher who is not very interested in money. Only the second move can be used. Chambers thought for a moment and said: "black cloud is also tackling large switches and multi protocol routers. My boss has explained before leaving. If you don't agree to join black cloud, you can guide this project as a consultant. The cost is twice your salary at Stanford. I think it's a way. "

Leonard possack: "sorry, I either lead a project myself or don't participate. Thank you for your kindness. Please tell him that I will not be the technical consultant of black cloud. And after the success of my project research and development, I can definitely prove who is the world's No. 1 University in computer science. "

Baozixuan said on many occasions that MIT's computer specialty ranks first in the world. It makes Stanford, which is equivalent to them, very unhappy. It includes almost all students and teachers.
