Bill Gates is silent again. In fact, Microsoft has a big problem now. That is, in July last year, Microsoft was accused by many companies of monopolizing and promised to abandon extreme anti-competitive business practices.

This is a simple matter. Microsoft relies on the status of Boss on its operating system to require hardware manufacturers to pay for system payments for computers produced by parents, even if this computer does not use Microsoft’s operating system!

It can be seen that Microsoft was so strong at that time, and it was because of this overlord clause that the government came forward to mediate, when Microsoft’s share price fell a lot.

Apple Inc., in particular, has been suing Microsoft, saying that Microsoft’s system infringes Apple’s patents, and that Apple Corporation is at the helm of this time, not Jobs.

Microsoft has become a leader in the country, and it is urgent to open up overseas blank markets to prove that it is still the status of the market Boss, to avoid being taken away by other companies such as Apple Corporation.

The operating system of the Corporation, not only Microsoft, Apple Corporation’s system, there are many users, not only the United States, Europe and even Asia, there are some big Corporation, also Microsoft’s competitors, can let Microsoft out the door . For example, India has its own operating system, and Microsoft has been difficult to implement.

Moreover, the creativity of China people is also world-famous. It is inevitable that China will not have another Corporation and develop a good operating system. Then Microsoft will completely lose the opportunity to enter China.

To put it bluntly, it is a matter of time. Feng Yu made it clear that telling Bill Gates that the longer the delay, the worse for Microsoft.

And Feng Yu has a subtext, and he has the ability to keep Microsoft out of China.

This is really not a bragging. Feng Yu only needs to tell the leaders that China should develop its own system. It is very likely that Microsoft will be blocked from China.

Although the predecessor Microsoft’s system has a very high penetration rate, the government, enterprises, and so on, do not use some special systems, some of the systems that China Corporation has studied itself.

And it also involves a network information security issue. After the acquisition of IBM by Lenovo in the past, did the Government of Mexico not remove IBM from the Government procurement list? Although the price is lower, they still can’t buy it. To put it bluntly, they are afraid that Lenovo will install the backdoor program on the computer.

The same is true for China Government. Why not buy a cheaper computer and buy Lenovo? Just taking into account security issues, I am afraid that some information will be accidentally leaked.

Of course, these reasons can’t stop Microsoft from entering China. How did Microsoft get fired in the past? Indicted against Silver Mountain, because Silver Mountain Corporation uses a cracked version of the Microsoft system.

At that time, many of China’s Corporations, individuals, including Governments, used Microsoft’s pirated software, which Microsoft ignored. Then, after the Chinese people got used to the piracy, and the other software Corporation was squeezed, Microsoft took the most popular Silver Mountain software Corporation at that time, and in one fell swoop, the market was no longer a competitor in China!

And that means, letting Microsoft lose a lot of profits, is a last resort. Now, as long as you agree to the conditions of Feng Yu, you can implement genuine Microsoft software in China, and you can get a lot of profit, which is very important for the development of Microsoft.

“Feng, this thing, I need to talk to other people. Can you tell me that you are asking Microsoft to cut the price of the system, so how much is it appropriate?” Bill Gates asked.

“The complete system, at least WIN95 and OFFICE office software must be included. Of course, we will also have Microsoft’s IE browser on all computers. This has great benefits for the promotion of Microsoft Internet Explorer. Well, I think For a moment, a total of 100 RMB for Microsoft, including a free upgrade service.”

“One hundred RMB? How much is that dollar?” Bill Gates had a very bad feeling. How does he remember that the exchange rate of the US dollar is much higher than that of RMB?

“Twelve dollars or so,” Feng Yu said easily.

“What? Twelve dollars! How is this possible! Any of our genuine software, the cost of use is more than 12 US dollars, such as WIN95 system, at least 100 US dollars, you are only willing to give us 10% price, but want We carry other software, how can this be done!”

This price is too outrageous, and Bill Gates can’t agree anyway!

“Bill, I remind you, if you work with Lenovo, you can still earn money. After all, after the system is developed, you can collect a set of money and earn more. If no one uses Microsoft’s system, Microsoft can’t get anything.”

“How is it possible that our system is the best?”

“After all, there are still a lot of production systems and software organizations. Isn’t it? And we China, there are also companies that develop system software, more than one. Do you believe that if those organizations work together to develop Chinese operating systems, then Microsoft will thoroughly Losing the market in China.”

“You don’t have such a good engineer,” Bill Gates said confidently.

The power of Microsoft is that they have world-class software engineers, which is why they lead other organizations.

“But I have money. Microsoft engineers, it seems that many of them are also borrowed from other organizations. I don’t need to dig up your core engineers. Just dig out all the engineers who understand Chinese. What do you think?” Feng Yu asked with a smile.

Threat, Feng is threatening him! Bill Gates was very unhappy, but he couldn’t find a rebuttal. Feng Yu’s financial strength is enough to ensure that this can be done. It is worth the money of Microsoft’s stock.

What’s more, Feng Yu definitely has a relationship with China Government. Combining the power of a country, Microsoft can’t compete!

“The price you can give is too low.”

“No way, our China’s economic level, after all, is still relatively poor, too expensive things, no one will be willing to use. You have not seen the Pirates version in other countries? If China and the price of rice are the same , then I can guarantee that China’s piracy will make your Microsoft’s genuine development difficult.”

This is the case in the past life. Although Microsoft has signed contracts with many PC vendors, don’t forget that there is also a computer called assembly machine!

This is not the software, and it is also the most widely accepted method at that time, because the self-assembled, abandoned the added value of the brand, can be much cheaper. The same configuration of the computer, assembled with the brand, the price can be 50% difference! Then the system is installed in a cracked version, a dime does not come out, and finally the price of Microsoft’s system in China is much cheaper than in the United States.

“I need to consider this, I can’t answer you right away. And I think you understand that this price, the Board of Directors of Corporation, will not pass!” Bill Gates persuaded again.

Feng Yu smiled and said: “You are Chairman, aren’t you? How to decide, you have the final say. I hope to get your reply as soon as possible, let’s let Microsoft take off!”
