Silicon Valley

The transformation of McGraw-Hill Station failed to counteract the status of IReader Station!

The IReader station is developing better and better, while the McGraw Hill station is suffering serious losses. Offline physical books have been seriously affected due to online piracy, which has led to a decline in sales, which has caused dissatisfaction among many writers!

Henry's physical book "Resident Evil" sells so well, in addition to the excellent novel itself, it is also related to Henry's personal charm! Countless gimmicks can attract people's curiosity, plus Henry is so young, he is simply an American idol and a representative of the American dream! ! !

Obviously, not everyone can learn from him. Books published online and offline physical books can also be sold!

Henry actually didn't pay attention to McGraw Hill. Writers are also human and profit-seeking animals. Naturally, they know which website has the most traffic and which website is more profitable. They are not stupid. Laji ran to an unpopular website to publish a new book!

The IReader site has established itself as a leader in the industry and it is hard to be shaken by other sites. What's more, there is ICQ company standing behind it.

Now that it is nearing the end of 1991, there are two things that are most worthy of Henry's attention, one is the disintegration of the Soviet Union, and the other is the next US presidential election!

The presidential campaign in the United States will start in January 1992 and will last for half a year. This stage is a primary election, mainly for presidential candidates within major parties. Clinton was elected as the chairman of the Democratic Supreme Committee as early as 1990. Therefore, he It should be undisputed to be the Democratic Party's presidential candidate! ! !

On the Soviet side, Henry has asked the Blackwater Company to send 3,000 members to the Soviet Union to implement the "talent war" plan.

This time, Henry wants to carve up the talents of the Soviet Union with European countries and even the United States. However, Henry was able to predict the approximate time of the disintegration of the Soviet Union and a series of Russian policies after that, so he was more prepared, and he would even take the lead before the countries reacted. Run away talent!

Before that, Henry had collected information on top talents from all walks of life.

Once the Soviet Union is involved, act immediately!

This time, the resources used are very large. At the end of November, Henry hired 20 large ships that can accommodate thousands of people to be distributed at various terminals along the Russian coastal border, and also rented ten Boeing 747 aircraft to escort the top high-tech talents!

This action to snatch talent, presumably can be made into a blockbuster!

...

three months ago. Azerbaijan, Belarus, Kyrgyzstan, Moldavia, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Ukraine, Estonia, Armenia, Tajikistan announced their separation from the Soviet Union! Even earlier, in the spring of 1990 and 1991, Lithuania, Latvia, Georgia announced their separation from the Soviet Union!

Seeing the time passing by, a tense atmosphere pervaded the entire Soviet Union. By December 8, 1991, after the heads of Russia, Belarus and Ukraine signed the agreement. The Soviet Union is dead in name only!

December 25-26, 1991. The Supreme Soviet of the USSR has confirmed the fact that the alliance has disintegrated, which means the official disintegration of the USSR!

"Hello, Mr. Williams, the plan has begun!"

"Okay, pay attention to safety!!!" Henry replied lightly, then hung up the phone. Then, he stood up from his seat, with a gleam of light in his eyes, he couldn't help but murmured with a smile: "Haha. The talents of the Soviet Union will be used by me!!!"

The members of Blackwater are already active in various countries and are actively carrying out actions. At this moment, after the disintegration of the Soviet Union, the governments of various countries are extremely chaotic and are facing a serious economic crisis. Especially in Russia, it's even more chaotic!

Yeltsin appointed the young liberal reformist Heydar as head of government to carry out radical "shock" economic reforms! Objectively speaking, the effect of "shock" therapy is very obvious, and it can end socialist public ownership in a very short period of time. Denationalization and privatization achieved!

One of the biggest features of shock therapy is that "long pain is not as good as short pain", only after the pain is almost shock can you be reborn!

Its contents are roughly as follows: implement austerity financial and fiscal policies, reduce government spending, eliminate subsidies, liberalize prices, implement trade liberalization, achieve exchange rate stability through currency devaluation, further reform the administrative and tax systems, and transfer some public sectors and enterprises to private ownership. reorganization, rescheduling debt and accepting foreign aid, and more!

However, after this policy was implemented, the ordinary people of Russia were almost desperate. The ruble has already depreciated wildly, and now the government has let it depreciate again. The money in everyone's hands is about to become waste paper. How can we live?

The entire country's economy was paralyzed for a time.

Factories closed down, state-owned enterprises were sold cheaply!

Banks go bankrupt, hordes of laid-off workers fill the streets!

Even scientific research institutions have closed down due to lack of funds, and high-tech talents have no choice but to be laid off! ! !

The Giant Bear International Headhunting Company established by Henry in Russia immediately became busy and received inquiries from many people!

After that, Heishui cooperated with Giant Bear International Headhunting Company to transfer talents one after another!

As long as it is talent, it will all be taken away and sent to the United States. In order to buy people's hearts, Henry took them away with his family, and promised to arrange jobs for them in the United States!

With so many talented people in Russia leaving, it was impossible not to alert the authorities, and then they were obstructed.

However, the Blackwater Company is not a vegetarian. It has opened up a smuggling route in Russia, and there are members of the Blackwater escort along the way. If Russia dares to intercept it, they will run away if they can’t beat it, and they will fight if they can!

Russia is in turmoil, the whole country is in a mess, even the police can't get paid, can't get enough to eat, as for the army, hehe, he is busy selling arms, and the Blackwater Company buys a lot from it. Therefore, how can the Russian government take care of so much, and talents are escorted out of Russia by Blackwater members one after another.

Henry is particularly interested in Russian arms experts and aerospace technical talents. Therefore, the main purpose of the Soviet Union's snatch of talents this time is to poach these people.

Under the temptation of powerful money, many talents have agreed to work for Henry!

Among them, more than 400 people were poached from the "Korolev Energy Rocket and Space Group"! Korolev was praised as the "father of launch vehicles", invented artificial satellites, and was the chief engineer and designer of the Soviet rocket program. Although he is dead, the group's rockets, satellites and spacecraft are still in the field. The technology is top-notch!

In addition, the Blackwater Company also poached more than 50 technical talents for the research and development of rocket engines from the "Power Machinery Research and Production Consortium", the top rocket engine company in the Soviet Union, and 40 people from the "Keldish Research Center". A number of rocket propulsion R\u0026D talents have poached more than 20 energy supply system R\u0026D talents from the "Quantum Science Institute". Of course, the aerospace technical talents dug are far more than that. There are more than 200 people in other companies.

All these talents add up, and they can completely develop rockets, satellites, and spacecraft!

At the same time, Blackwater also bought a lot of technical data at a low price!

However, Henry's pace has not been so fast. He wants to make achievements in the field of rockets, then develop satellites, and finally make spaceships!

Henry was the first to dig people, so the diggers were naturally the elite among the elites. When other countries were about to dig people, they couldn't help being stunned. They found that the object they were digging had already been poached. In the end, I had no choice but to settle for the next best thing, and the digging level was slightly worse!

The U.S. government also discovered this situation, but an investigation suddenly found that those high-tech aerospace technical talents who had been poached actually came to the United States...

NASA is very concerned about this matter!
