In 1984, Carl Steinberg and Manfred Lürup formed a partnership to form Steinberg AG.
In the following ten years, the two worked hard and diligently researched and developed, finally giving Steinberg a sufficient say in the industry.
In their minds, Steinberg Company is equivalent to their child, and they cannot take too much care of it.
But now, they had to hand over the child to Xiao Qian.
There was no way, Xiao Qian gave me too much.
Not to mention that after Steinberg is acquired by Xiao Qian, the two of them will continue to be responsible for the company's operations and also own shares in the company.
In fact, what impressed Carl and Manfred the most was the future design of Cubase presented by Xiao Qian.
What Xiao Qian brought out is content that will only be available in Cubase in 2020. In this era, its advanced nature is self-evident.
Carl and Manfred knew very well that once they really developed all the functions in the drawing according to Xiao Qian's description, Cubase would definitely dominate the world.
As long as you are not stupid, you know how to choose between being the boss of a small company and being the shareholder of a large enterprise.
Xiao Qian was extremely satisfied to have Steinberg Company in his hands.
Some of the intellectual property rights owned by Steinberg are truly priceless.
For example, asio sound card driver, this copyright is in the hands of Steinberg.
Anyone who is engaged in music knows that you must use a professional sound card to run various programs better. This requires an excellent sound card driver to allow the professional sound card to run.
Steinberg has made ASIO the standard in the field of professional sound card drivers, and its value is unlimited.
Now that Xiao Qian has acquired Steinberg, naturally these property rights belong to him.
Carl, Manfred and others did not feel that they had lost anything. They took the drawings provided by Xiao Qian and immediately invested in research and development.
Karl promised that with Xiao Qian's help, they would be able to launch the new Cubase by the middle of next year at the latest.
This time is a full year earlier than in the previous life.
And it is foreseeable that the Cubase launched this time will definitely be more complete and powerful than the original version of the previous life, enough to beat all peer software in this era.
Xiao Qian contacted David, Daniel and others in London, informed them of the acquisition of Steinberg, and asked the two companies to hand over and become one company.
In the previous life, Sibelius was acquired by Steinberg, and Steinberg was acquired by Yamaha.
Now, in a roundabout way, it is impossible for Yamaha to acquire Steinberg again, but Sibelius and Steinberg have become one company again.
Finished, go home!
Before he could leave, he was dragged to Spain by Jing Qi and Li Xiaohan.
Compared to the cold and humid Germany, the autumn in Spain is still bright and sunny, warm and comfortable. The warm breeze of the Mediterranean makes people here lazy and enjoy life the most.
In the restaurant of Magna Villa Hotel, Xiao Qian had no appetite and was filled with doubts.
"If you two want to travel, just travel. Why are you dragging me along? I'm very busy, and I have a lot of things to do at home."
Just say, I don't want to be a light bulb for you anymore.
Jing Qi remained unmoved and just kept persuading.
"Come, try it. This is a dish cooked by Rodrigo de Lacaye himself. He only cooks it himself on one day every month. It is not easy to taste his cooking."
Xiao Qian angrily stuffed the ham into his mouth and kept asking questions.
"You two must come to Madrid. Why?"
Seeing that there was no way to escape, Jing Qi was also depressed.
"My grandfather left some inheritance, a bit too much. I have worked hard to deal with it, but there are still some finishing touches. This time it is also because of the inheritance issue, those annoying guys found my head."
Xiao Qian became energetic.
"The dispute over family inheritance? Will there be any conspiracy or vendetta?"
Jing Qi rolled his eyes repeatedly.
"I am the only one in our family now, so what kind of inheritance dispute is there? The main reason is that part of my grandfather's inheritance has changed, and I, the inheritance holder, need to stand up and express my position. But I don't understand, and he doesn't either.
I understand, I’m worried about it.”
Xiao Qian was stunned.
"Isn't it a matter of inheritance? What else do you know about inheritance?"
"Oh, it's not what you think."
Jing Qi scratched his forehead irritably and worked hard for a long time before he could organize his words.
"Well, there is a football club called Real Madrid, do you know?"
Xiao Qian was stunned.
"I am a Real Madrid fan, do you think I know that?"
Darling, why does this involve Real Madrid?
Jing Qi was happy.
"Wow, it turns out you know football. That's great. Please help me come up with ideas this time."
Xiao Qian is going crazy.
"No, wait a minute, what does Real Madrid have to do with your grandfather's legacy?"
Jing Qi said matter-of-factly: "My grandfather is one of the shareholders of Real Madrid, so if anything happens to Real Madrid, of course it has to do with me."
Xiao Qian froze and leaned against the woman opposite in disbelief.
"No, what does your grandfather do? I remember that when you were dealing with the inheritance, didn't you go to Italy?"
Jing Qi didn't understand why he was surprised.
"The Italian side is also my grandfather's inheritance, but it's not much. It's just a castle. I have already sold it."
The corners of Xiao Qian's mouth twitched crazily.
Not much...just a castle...
He felt that it was necessary for him to get to know this very unreliable artist of his.
"It seems that you hide a shocking secret."
"What nonsense? Where did the secret come from?"
Xiao Qian became interested, and her eyes were filled with the fire of gossip.
"Tell me about your family."
Since Xiao Qian was brought here, Jing Qi naturally couldn't hide anything.
"My grandfather's name is Juan Antonio Alfonso. He is the Spanish royal family name Alfonso you know, but he is not a royal family. It is just that he is very influential in Spain and has a great career. After his death
After that, even dealing with his estate took me a long time."
Xiao Qian tilted his head left and right, looking at Jing Qi's completely oriental face, puzzled.
"Your grandfather is a pure Spaniard, why does he have an Oriental daughter like you?"
Jing Qi spread his hands.
"Because my grandmother and my mother are both Chinese, maybe because their Eastern ancestry is relatively strong, that's why I look like this. But my uncle and my father still have a lot of Western influences."
Xiao Qian was stunned.
It seems that Jing Qi has been baptized by the blood of two generations of oriental elders, so there is not much mixed blood on his body.
Jingqi was still talking over there.
"During the Spanish Civil War, my grandmother responded to the call of the Communist International and came to Spain to fight against Franco. When they failed, my grandmother was injured and was protected by my grandfather. The two fell in love at first sight and eventually got married. My grandfather
He has always been one of Franco's opponents and has been secretly plotting against him.
Franco. After Franco's death, my grandfather firmly stood on the side of Juan Carlos I regarding the issue of the king's succession. In gratitude for my grandfather's contribution, King Carlos granted him the title of Viscount.
.Since then, my grandfather’s business in Spain has gradually grown and spread to all parts of the world.”
He said it easily, but Xiao Qian was dripping with cold sweat.
Who would have thought that Jing Qi's family could be so terrifying?
As a descendant of the Dragon Lord, no wonder the castle is so trivial!
"You said you had an uncle, so why did you inherit the inheritance?"
Blind Qian discovered Hua Dian.
Jing Qi pouted.
"My uncle, he was a pure playboy when he was young. He spent all day drinking and drinking. Finally one time, after he was drunk, he drove the car at a speed of 220..."
Okay, there is no need to say more about what follows.
Viscount Alfonso only had two children. One of them died while driving drunk, so naturally he was the only heir left.
Xiao Qian finally understood why Jing Qi didn't care about anything he did.
Why work hard when you have endless money?
If I could do anything else, it would be boring.
Originally, as a time traveler, he should be the child of destiny. Now that he understood Jing Qi's background, Xiao Qian realized that he was just a beggar.
Even though he traveled through time, he still had to work hard to achieve the wealth he has today.
But this woman was born with it.
While others were worrying about how to make money, she was thinking about how to deal with the money.
It's really annoying to compare people to each other!
