December 23rd was the second day of the Futai Technology Exhibition, but Zhou Ming did not go to the Stanford Convention Center on that day, but instead went to the opposite direction. This is why the importance of the second day of the science and technology exhibition is much worse than the first day, because with the abortion of people on the first day, everything that should be viewed and what should be displayed was underway. Most people also know what technological concepts they have. There are still a few left or not. They are enough to deal with it before staying there; secondly, there are more important customers here to deal with it.

Zhou Ming was sitting in his car and galloping on California Street, while Liu Qiang, the technical manager of Jeko Company, sat next to him.

Manager Liu, we are now going to Saifok Company. You are our technical department manager. Today’s task is to evaluate the equipment and software, storage and usage of their previous information database. Do you know what to do? Zhou Ming asked.

Faced with this sudden problem, Liu Qiang was stunned. He didn't understand what Zhou Ming meant by asking this, because the assessment was to understand the information database of Saifok Company and then list the corresponding appropriate list according to their requirements. Did he do this work for more than ten years, so why didn't he know how to do it?

From Liu Qiang's eyes, Zhou Ming knew that he definitely didn't understand, so Zhou Ming explained: What I mean is that when you do an evaluation inspection at Saifok Company, they will definitely ask you about some evaluation status.

After Zhou Ming said this, Liu Qiang shuddered: Vice President Zhou, I understand, I must say nothing can be told.

Zhou Ming waved his hand: Actually, there is nothing to say. Just say whatever you want, but you have to pay him three or four times the price.

Liu Qiang was surprised: If you turn so many times, the total price will likely reach a height of seven or eight million. Vice President Zhou, won’t this scare them away?

This is not what you have to care about. You just want to say that. I will do the rest. Zhou Ming said.

Liu Qiang nodded blankly. He finally didn't understand why Zhou Ming did this. In his opinion, since they are small companies, if they want to win such a large project, shouldn't they lower the quotation? In the past, everyone else in the company did this. Why do Vice President Zhou still have to report three or four times this time? Maybe they now have the technology of Aipai Company, but after all, they are fake and powerful. Vice President Zhou is so young, it's a bit of a matter of course.

Liu Qiang thought so, and he was also worried whether he should persuade the young Vice President Zhou, and persuade him, worried that he would be angry and angry, and not persuade him, and worried that something would happen in the future and then blame him.

Liu Qiang's expression was like constipation. Of course, Zhou Ming could easily guess what he was thinking at this time. Zhou Ming said to him: Don't worry, at most they will only bargain with me and want to give up. They gave up at the exhibition yesterday.

Why is this? Liu Qiang asked blankly, his head was as confused as if it was filled with paste.

It's very simple. If you are a consumer, when you go into a store and the owner of the store is very bad at treating you, what would you do if you ask Zhou Ming?

Of course, I won’t spend in this store anymore. Liu Qiang answered without thinking.

Zhou Ming said: That's it. If I were to turn around, I would have left. After all, you would not be the only store in this world, but they did not. Just yesterday's exhibition, when the chairman of Saifolk's company came to our booth, our President Tang said a few words to him. I could see that he was very angry, but he did not leave, so I judged that he must have to do anything about us.

Vice President Zhou, this judgment would be too arbitrary to determine whether Liu Qiang asked cautiously.

Zhou Ming was a little surprised when Liu Qiang asked this. Zhou Ming said to him: I am very happy if you asked this, because you are indeed thinking about the company, but today you should do what I said, and I am confident.

With Zhou Ming's words, Liu Qiang could only nod and said yes. After a few minutes, they came downstairs where Saifok Company was located. They got off the car and went upstairs, and arrived at the floor where Saifok Company was located.

As the president of Saifok Company, Xilai personally greeted her at the door. After some greetings, Liu Qiang followed Brown, the logistics department director, to check the information database. Zhou Ming and Xilai were having tea and chatting at the door. At noon, Zhou Ming was invited to the restaurant next to the office building to have the best seafood.

It was four o'clock in the afternoon, and Liu Qiang came back with his notebook full of various professional terms. His face was full of entangled expressions of not being able to fart. He came to Zhou Ming and whispered to Zhou Ming: Vice President Zhou, I just checked their information database equipment and found that although their equipment has not been updated for two years, it is at least still useful.

This answer surprised Zhou Ming very much and blurted out: What

Zhou Ming's surprise frightened Xilai. He hurriedly asked Zhou Ming what happened. After all, Liu Qiang said to Zhou Ming alone very quietly, and he couldn't hear it. Zhou Ming asked him to stay calm and asked Liu Qiang in a low voice: Then what did they mean when they said that the storage device was full very early.

That is because a large amount of junk files are piled up in those storage devices, which occupy a lot of storage space, so subsequent information materials are difficult to store. But in fact, as long as these junk files are cleaned up, I think that at least within two years, if there is no major information change, the current information storage device is still enough. Liu Qiang said.

The answer given by Liu Qiang made Zhou Ming feel a bit fantastic. Zhou Ming turned around and asked Xilai: Your information database was maintained by other companies in the past, right?

Xilai nodded and said: There have been companies responsible for maintenance before, but just three months ago, the chairman of that company was arrested for suspected insider trading. Later, the company went bankrupt. After that company went bankrupt, my information database lost its daily maintenance. Why is there something wrong with the information database equipment or software?

Zhou Ming's brain is running rapidly. As a rebirth in later generations, Zhou Ming knows very well that any college student knows that the computer is running slowly, and it is mostly because there are too many garbage files in the system disk. At this time, just use the whole family bucket of antivirus software from the Internet, and then it can be solved with one click.

But this was nearly thirty years ago, when even personal computers were not popular in this era, and the memory was still a pitiful 32m era. Those who know computers are all high-tech talents. So Xilai didn't even know how to clean up junk files for computers. Although it sounds nonsense, it actually had to spend millions to update and replace them in order to process junk files with one click, but it was still possible.

If that's the case, wouldn't I be sorry for the readers if I don't teach you a good lesson?

With this idea, Zhou Ming said to Xilai very seriously: My technical manager just told me that because the information database of Saifok is too old, there are many equipment to be upgraded and updated.

As soon as Zhou Ming said this, he was interrupted by Xilai with dissatisfaction: Mr. Zhou Ming, what you said is wrong, although I admit that our company's information database needs to be upgraded and updated, I do not think the word "old" is accurate. At least our information database was updated on a large scale three years ago. How could it be too old?

Zhou Ming couldn't help laughing out loud about Xilai's words. Zhou Ming said to him: Mr. Xilai, I think you must have never heard of Moore's Law, right?

Xilai shook his head blankly, and Zhou Ming told him: The so-called Moore's Law is that every eighteen months, the number of components on the same integrated circuit can double, and the performance will also double accordingly. What this law reveals is the speed of improvement of information technology.

Zhou Ming deliberately paused and continued: So Mr. Xilai, the equipment in your information database has not been updated for three years. In these three years, the information equipment has undergone two thorough updates. Do you still insist on not getting old?

Shirey subconsciously glanced at Brown. Brown knew what Shirey meant and nodded to him.

Xilai's eyes were solemn, and asked: That is to say, have the equipment in our company's information database be completely replaced?

Regarding this question, Zhou Ming looked back at Liu Qiang. Liu Qiang immediately said a few words to Zhou Ming in a very clear voice. Zhou Ming said to Xilai: My manager just now told me that not all devices need to be replaced. After all, some less important terminal devices will not hinder use even if they are too old. However, some core components must be replaced, especially your storage devices.

Xilai nodded helplessly: Since that's the case, we can only choose to replace it. However, Mr. Zhou Ming, your Jeke Company must be responsible for the maintenance of my information database.

We have no choice but to do this work. Zhou Ming said that he was so happy with Xilai's request, because judging from what I just learned, the company obviously has a very poor computer knowledge, so only by constantly maintaining it can we get a steady stream of benefits.

So what is your initial offer? Hilai asked again.

Faced with this most critical problem, Liu Qiang quickly calculated the handover and handed over the estimated price to Zhou Ming. Zhou Ming took the paper handed over by Liu Qiang, looked at the numbers on it, and then raised five fingers to Xilai: five million.

This offer almost scared Xilai under the chair. Xilai widened his eyes and said: Why did he want so much money? My initial budget was only two million. You were not lying to me on purpose?

Zhou Ming smiled: Mr. Xilai, at Jeko Company, you get what you pay for. I don’t know if you still remember Mr. Xilai. You said you wanted the kind of Mark computer you saw at the exhibition, as well as those independently developed operating systems and office software. I told you at that time that this would exceed the budget.

But I didn't expect to ask for so much money at the beginning, which was too much more than that. I'm sorry I couldn't accept it. Xilai said.

Then I think Mr. Xilai has definitely not heard a story about being reluctant to let his children go to trap the wolf. Zhou Ming said that it was a long time ago, a village was often attacked by wolves. Not only did it kill many domestic animals, but it even took away children from several families. The people in the village were very distressed and wanted to catch the wolf, but the wolf was very cunning. No matter how the villagers tried to make a trap, the wolf was never fooled.

Zhou Ming deliberately stopped when he said this. He asked Xilai: Do you know what the people in that village did in the end?

They took out a child as bait, and then the wolf caught the trap of the villagers and was finally caught by the villagers. Xilai replied.

Zhou Ming smiled and said: That's right, that's it. Using children as bait to catch wolves is undoubtedly very cruel, but it is also necessary. Just like the equipment of Saifok Company, if you can't bear to pay, you won't have good equipment. Only if you can spend money can you get the best equipment. Then Mr. Shire, can you tell me your final answer?
