Headquartered in San Jose, Silicon Valley, Henry drove from home to the company''s headquarters in about an hour.

    When the company was founded, there were only three employees, Henry, posack and Lerner. Bossack technology, Lena management, Henry soy sauce. On the development of the company, Henry put forward a lot of suggestions, and clearly put forward the concept of "multi protocol routing", that is, to design a new type of networking equipment to connect all computer LANs to form a unified network.

    When Henry proposed this concept, posack and Lerner were shocked. They just wanted to turn Stanford University into a network.

    "Mr. posak, do we have any patents related to routers?" Henry asked because he knew that although posak had applied for a patent, it was a job patent and belonged to Stanford University.

    When Henry asked, he stopped the possacks!

    Router companies don''t have router patents. Can they still play? Stanford University has granted Cisco related router patents in the future, but Henry does not think it is safe. In history, bossack did not give less shares to Stanford University, and Henry did not want to cause trouble.

    "The router patent should belong to Stanford University. I''ll tell the leaders that it should be authorized for us to use." Posak thought about it and said.

    "Buy it directly, it''s easy and safe!" Henry is almost in tears. It''s naive of you to let you use the patent.

    "Then buy it. It''s not worth much anyway." Said posak.

    Henry was speechless.

    Later, Henry accompanied the possacks to Stanford University to buy router patents and recruit new employees. Stanford University welcomed the arrival of posak and sold the router patent to Cisco. Because not many people have found its value.

    The company paid only $100000 for the patent!

    In terms of recruiting staff, Stanford University has the world''s top computer talents. Thanks to the fame of posak and Lerner, more than 20 people signed up one day. Posak finally picked five of them.

    Compared with Cisco in previous generations, Cisco now has a very high starting point and "well-equipped troops" with at least five more senior computer talents and one million dollars. In 1986, Cisco officially launched its first router. Now, Cisco is developing faster. It is possible to develop router products in half a year. Henry is not worried about technology. With posack and Lerner, all problems can be solved. The company''s biggest problem is sales.

    I''m afraid the wine is deep in the alley! In order to promote the sale of products, the sales link must spend a lot of money.

    ……

    When the possacks went to San Jose, Henry had no one to teach him. So Roger Nicholas was going to send him to school. At bosack''s recommendation, Henry went to Stanford high school. Henry is the youngest student in Stanford high school so far, and he did very well in the entrance examination.

    Henry went to school, and at the same time he had to give some advice for the development of Cisco. He seemed to be a busy man.

    After March, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer''s stone sold 1.7 million copies. After paying taxes, Henry got $1.2 million. In addition to returning $1 million to grandfather, there was $200000 left. In the meantime, Henry finished writing Harry Potter and the chamber of secrets and gave it to West German publishing house for them to print the book.

    The second Harry Potter is more popular than the first one!

    The first printing of 500000 copies was soon robbed. Cisco''s development is also on the right track. Everything went well, but the only bad thing was that Roger Nicholas was getting worse and worse.

    The old man was in his seventies. He lost his daughter more than half a year ago. His mind was hit hard and his body collapsed in an instant. When winter came, all kinds of problems appeared on the old man. Henry had to accompany the old man to take care of him and talk to him more to relieve his boredom. Every day, Henry tells Roger Nicholas about his school, his new book and the development of Cisco.

    The old man listens quietly every time, with a kind smile on his face. But his body is getting thinner and thinner, as thin as skin and bone. Henry looked at the old man''s pale face in the hospital. He was afraid that the old man would leave. He was afraid that he would lose a relative who cared about him and cared for him. He was getting used to the old man''s life around him

    April 1, 1985, April Fool''s day, Roger Nicholas left forever. On this day, Henry cried miserably in the hospital. After hearing the news, the bossacks came immediately, comforting Henry and helping with the funeral.

    On the day of the funeral, many of the old man''s former friends came. Henry met them one by one and accepted their comfort. However, when the coffin was about to be put into the grave, Henry finally burst into tears!

    Henry''s mental state is not very good, the bossacks accompanied him home.

    "Henry, I''m sorry for your change!" Cossack comforted.

    Lena went to the kitchen to prepare dinner for Henry, who had little to eat during the day. Lena made a few beefsteak, juice and bread, which he soon brought to Henry.

    "Henry, have something to eat." Lena hugged Henry with some pity and said softly.

    Tonight, the room is empty.

    Henry sleeps on the bed and looks up at the starry sky. It seems that an old man''s face appears in the starry sky

    After a while, perhaps in early May, Henry''s mood gradually improved. During this period, Henry didn''t go to school. He stayed at home and wrote Harry Potter every day, trying to immerse himself in the novel and forget his sadness and worries. Soon, Harry Potter''s third book, Harry Potter and the prisoner of Azkaban, was finished.

    After Roger Nicholas died, the bookstore business suddenly went down. There are many reasons for this. In addition to the pressure from competitors, what''s more important is that some senior executives of the bookstore took the opportunity to seek self-interest and bullied Henry, who was too young and didn''t know how to operate, making the bookstore a mess.

    Henry later learned about the situation and was furious.

    On May 10th, Henry held a board meeting. The chain of bookstores owned by grandfather Roger Nicholas is called Nicholas bookstore. Grandfather holds 75% of the shares, and now all of them are inherited by Henry. In the conference room, Henry sat in the chair, cold faced. Half an hour later, when the big and small shareholders arrived, many people looked at Henry with a playful smile.

    Hank Woolf, a middle-aged man with curly hair in his forties, is sitting in the first position under Henry. He is the second largest shareholder of the bookstore. Now he is lighting his cigarette leisurely. He doesn''t pay any attention to Henry, the nominal chairman of the board of directors: "children, we are very busy. Let''s hurry to say something!"

    "Hum!" Henry gave a cold hum and handed out the copied documents. He said coldly, "someone in the company misappropriates funds. I wonder if you should give me an account?"

    Hank Woolf threw the document on the table and said with a smile, "what''s the explanation? This is the normal capital operation of the company. You are still young. Of course you don''t understand! "

    "Ha ha... I don''t understand?" Henry sneered, "well, I''ll ask a professional accounting firm to review the company''s financial situation!"

    "You Hank Woolf became angry.

    Henry patted the table and said in a loud voice, "I don''t care what happened before. In a word, before tomorrow, if anyone doesn''t return the money he embezzled from the company, I''ll put him in prison!"

    When Henry finished speaking, many of the shareholders present were cool.

    "Besides, I decided to sell the bookstore chain. At the same time, I will compensate all shareholders. I am willing to buy your shares at a premium of 5%! "

    "What? You want to sell the bookstore The crowd was shocked.

    "That''s right!" Henry nodded. "I''ve hired a professional accountant to evaluate the company''s assets, with a market value of 24 million dollars. You have a 25% stake, which is six million dollars. If you are willing to sell, we can conclude the business now. "

    The meeting room suddenly became noisy.

    Many people scold Henry as a black sheep and sell his grandfather''s bookstore. In fact, in Henry''s opinion, the bookstore is full of holes, so it can''t be sold. Since my grandfather fell ill, he was unable to take care of the company''s business at all. There were a lot of bad debts, and the major shareholders embezzled the company''s property at will. It would be good for such a company not to go bankrupt.

    Henry thinks he has nothing to do with this mess. He might as well cut the mess and sell the bookstore!

    The competition pressure of the physical stores is very big. As long as Henry keeps the name of "Nicholas bookstore", as for the stores that can be sold, Henry believes that he will be able to develop the bookstore founded by his grandfather and become the first in the world!!!

    The meeting room is still noisy. Greed has no end. Henry gave a 5% premium, but they were not satisfied, they asked for more.

    "The bookstore is our painstaking effort. It''s just wishful thinking to let us sell our shares at a mere 5% premium!"

    "Yes, we won''t sell our shares!"

    “……”

    Henry said coldly, "how much do you want?"

    The big and small shareholders looked at each other, got together and discussed in a low voice. Finally, Hank Woolf, as the representative, said: "at least 20%!"

    "Why don''t you grab it!" Henry could hardly help slamming out the door.

    "Just 20%, or we won''t sell it!" Hank Woolf seems to be sure of Henry''s price.

    It seemed that the negotiation was over. Henry stood up with a sneer and prepared to leave without saying a word. Before walking away from the gate, Henry turned to Hank Woolf and warned, "Mr. Woolf, please make up one million dollars of the embezzled company tomorrow, otherwise, see you in court!"

    "Hum!" Hank Woolf snorted coldly.

    "Bang!"

    The door is closed.

    "Woolf, this little guy looks hard to deal with!" One of the minority shareholders said.

    "A ten-year-old, are you afraid of him?" Hank Woolf said scornfully.

    "Woolf, isn''t that kid really going to sell the bookstore? In that case, wouldn''t our shares be worthless? " Another small shareholder said.

    "No!" Woolf thought for a moment and said, "that little guy loves his grandfather so much that he won''t sell his grandfather''s bookstore! I think this little guy must have been deceiving us on purpose, so that we can sell our stocks to him! "

    "Yes, Woolf is right. Ha ha, we insist on this price. As a child, he will definitely give up in the end. "

    "Ha ha..."

    After Henry left, he called lawyer will.

    "Hello, lawyer will, I''m Henry Williams!"

    "Oh, Hello, what can I do for you?"

    "Lawyer will, I''d like you to contact some buyers who want to buy bookstores for me. Yes, I''m going to sell my grandfather''s bookstore! "

    "Well, good!"

    Henry hung up the phone and turned to look at the sign of "Nicholas bookstore" behind him. He could not help showing a very firm and confident expression on his face!

    "Nicholas bookstore" will become the symbol of an era!!!
