Chapter 1272 (1/2)

Thomas J. Watson's phone call was several hours later than Li Zitao expected.

He thought Watson would call Li's apartment as soon as IBM received the news, but he insisted on calling after dinner.

Li Zitao regarded this as the old man's last stubbornness and pride. He was also vague about the issues he mentioned. He only said that the government's action was legitimate, and did not mention the rest.

If IBM is willing to make trouble, Li Zitao has nothing to lose. It has nothing to do with whom Washington should find an account for the other party.

”I see.” Watson hung up the phone stiffly with a look of anger on his face.

The other side only gave him a ”proper” explanation, and did not mention the rest of the reasons. He was clearly asked to act as a pawn.

But as president of IBM, he has to account to all shareholders and employees.

There must be a reasonable explanation why the most important and most invested research laboratory of the company will be forcibly taken over.

”What are you going to do?” Asked Mrs. Watson, looking at him.

”Do I have a choice?” ”Unless the other side can give a reasonable explanation, it will only be in court,” Watson asked

Let alone the FBI. Even the president can't cover the sky. This is America.

The next day.

Watson led half of the executives in charge of the project and confronted the head of the FBI door to door before arriving at the lab.

”Tell your boss that if he doesn't have the seal and approval of the court, he'll wait for a subpoena from the supreme law.” Watson, with a black face, said in a terrifying manner.

He didn't have time to guess riddles with these little minions. Either he gave him a proper reason and all kinds of documents, or we made a big fuss to see who was in more trouble.

”Just a moment. I need instructions.” The person in charge who had received the ”warning” did not dare to let the other party go directly.

First, he went back to the laboratory to report to the superior, who then called the headquarters, and then there was a burst of waiting

Watson blocked the FBI, but the other side has not been able to reason because it is a reasonable and legitimate request, just like what they have done

The two sides must not be disgusted with each other. The FBI is in the first place, and its attitude is not as tough as before. It starts to reason and express feelings.

”This is a brand new technology that may pose a threat to national security. We can't open or test it without approval. We're just worried...”

First of all, I'll play rogue with you.

If you can't find it, I will tell you about patriotism and national righteousness. Mmpd will really play.

Watson is no stranger to the FBI and the other side's methods.

Since you want to talk about feelings with me, I will talk to you about law, public psychology, enterprise cost and contribution

He found that he couldn't bluff Watson at all, and the other side began to write about integrity, morality and contribution

As soon as Watson turned, he began to talk about his patriotism.

”I am special. Don't you want to emphasize the law, fairness, and enterprise cost and contribution?” The FBI's in charge is haggard.

”IBM has always been a conscientious enterprise that is responsible for the country and society, good at risk-taking and responsibility taking. What you are worried about is also what we are worried about...”

After meeting the other party to silence, Watson took the initiative to step up the steps, and explained that there are two different versions of p-t-pns.
