Although Mike makura is only in his early thirties, he has won millions of dollars in stock options by virtue of his qualifications as a sales manager at Fairchild Semiconductor and Intel.

Even in the United States decades later, this figure far exceeds the standard of the middle class in the United States, not to mention now.

Therefore, from this point of view, Mike Makula felt that he was unhappy working at Intel, and then "returned home", which was really confident.

"I have to attend the meeting, so I won't talk to you more." Gao Xian patted Mike makura on the shoulder. "Keep in touch later."

Mike makura picked up the carton again and sighed, "David, the company is in a bit of a mess."

Watching Mike Makula leave, Gao Xian smiled to himself without care, "chaos is interesting. Anyway, I'm in Intel and belong to the minority."

When he came to the meeting room, the dull atmosphere came to his face. Robert Noyce bowed his head and didn't know what documents he was turning. Others, such as Arthur Locke, were either drinking coffee or smoking cigars.

Gao Xian casually found an empty seat, sat down, looked around and said, "sorry, I seem to be the last one. Please wait a long time."

Arthur Locke's eyes on Gao Xian are no longer full of condescending disdain for looters.

It's not hard to guess the reason. The higher the investment circle goes, the smaller the investment circle. Gao Xian's $50 million investment in the oil industry is much more heroic than these venture capitalists searching for prey in Silicon Valley. Arthur Locke, who has become a major shareholder of Intel, invested only $2.2 million at the beginning.

Arthur Locke coughed softly. "Now that everyone is here, let's start."

Robert Noyce looked up and said slowly: "Let me first give a general overview of the company's business. Dynamic random access memory, static memory and read-only memory have been successfully mass produced. In particular, Intel 1103, a dynamic random access memory, became the best-selling dynamic random access memory product last year and received considerable orders from computer manufacturers such as HP and data equipment company."

After listing Intel's operating results, Robert Noyce said, "although the overall situation of the company is good, it has inevitably been negatively affected because of my personal reasons."

"I am deeply sorry for this, and am willing to resign as chairman of the board of directors and CEO, and recommend Gordon Moore, President of the company, to take over these positions."

Arthur Locke took over and said, "Robert, take a break, or let's raise our hands and vote."

Robert Noyce was ruthlessly abandoned by capital and had to retreat. Gao Xian was indifferent, but he couldn't sit back and watch the phenomenon that he should have talked privately in advance, decided to lower the price, and then walked through the stage on the board of directors. Without making his own voice, these guys really thought they were Maitreya Buddha sitting there smiling all day!

Therefore, Gao Xian interrupted: "do you think Intel's current excellent performance will last for several months?"

Arthur Locke asked, "what do you mean?"

Gao Xian shrugged. "I mean, don't think that after Intel has obtained the first mover advantage in the semiconductor memory market, it will sit firmly in the first place in the industry."

"In fact, the technical solutions provided by Intel in the semiconductor memory industry are not the most advanced and perfect."

"As far as I know, the Mostek company established by several former employees of Texas Instruments is at least no weaker than Intel. The reason is not difficult to understand. After all, Texas Instruments is also one of the inventors of integrated circuits."

"In terms of products, Mostek also designs and manufactures dynamic random access memory, and has at least two technologies being adopted, leading the industry."

"First, the MOS of Mostek's dynamic random access memory adopts ion implantation technology, which is obviously faster and lower than the bipolar technology of the peer MOS."

"According to reliable information, Mostek's dynamic random access memory product mk4006 has been favored by IBM and will be used in IBM mainframe."

"Second, Mostek's latest 4K capacity dynamic random access memory adopts address multiplexing technology."

"There is no doubt that with the improvement of semiconductor technology, the capacity of dynamic random access memory will be larger and larger, and the advantage of Mostek's address multiplexing technology is that even if the capacity of dynamic random access memory becomes larger, the cost increase in pin packaging will be effectively controlled."

Gao Xian talked a lot, and all the audience except Robert Noyce and Gordon Moore were stunned.

However, we are all elites after all, and soon figured out the conclusion of what Gao Xian said.

As a new product, semiconductor memory, which aims to replace magnetic core memory, will soon enter the stage of price war, and Intel does not have cost advantage in the upcoming market competition.

Although it's not pleasant to see the high string, Arthur Locke won't have a hard time with money.

Therefore, he asked suspiciously, "is what you said reliable?"

"If you pay more attention to the technical frontier reports in the industry, you will know that what I said is true." Gao Xian smiled. "Therefore, I suggest that Intel should not have major personnel changes. Letting the company's President Gordon Moore concurrently serve as CEO is enough to solve the problems of company management. As for others, they will only affect the development of Intel and need not be ignored."

Arthur Locke pondered and said nonsense, "then divide this issue into three show of hands voting links, whether to agree with Robert to resign as the CEO of the company, whether to agree with Robert to remain as the chairman of the board of directors of the company, and whether to agree with Gordon to take over the CEO of the company."

As a result, Arthur Locke's three inquiries received unanimous affirmative answers, which were also a formality, but the results were very different, and mixed with high string will.

Feeling the gratitude quietly conveyed by Robert Noyce's eyes, Gao Xian smiled, "I don't believe it. After this, the relationship between Robert Noyce and Arthur Locke can be as close as before; I can't cultivate my own faction in Intel!"

Since Robert Noyce had no face and failed to retreat, as the chairman of the board of directors, he said on the spot: "I will take the severe situation mentioned by David seriously and will never let the company and shareholders suffer losses."

Arthur Locke nodded and told: "now is a rare market opportunity for the replacement of magnetic core memory by semiconductor memory. Intel can do well only by grasping the business focus!"

Gao Xian secretly disdained, "Arthur Locke, who only care about their immediate interests, still don't realize the value of microprocessors."
