Extraordinary Genius

749. Chapter 749 Bill’s decision (8/10)

After leaving Microsoft Corporation Headquarters, Feng Yu called Liu Chuanzhi and told him to speed up the development of web browsers, forums, office software, etc., all based on the WIN95 system. Another important point is anti-virus software.

At this point, the system firewall is too easy to be compromised, and there are many system vulnerabilities. In recent years, it has been a few years of anti-virus software boom. If you can occupy this market, even if it only accounts for half of the China market, the profits will be absolutely rich.

What surprised Feng Yu was that Liu Chuanzhi told him that Silver Mountain didn’t make a successful acquisition. It seems that Silver Mountain’s gangs are very proud and arrogant. Their valuation of software technology is too high. It is difficult for Liu Chuanzhi and others to agree. .

However, Liu Chuanzhi also saw the potential of Silver Mountain. In office software, anti-virus software, browsers, etc., they did have strong strength. Therefore, although they did not fully acquire, they also invested a sum of money.

Feng Yu is somewhat disappointed, but this result is acceptable. In the future, various office software, etc., are the most profitable, including Microsoft’s later major profits, and OFFICE software is also a top priority.

For the time being on the computer system, it is too difficult and difficult to catch up with Microsoft’s footsteps. But is there not a mobile operating system in the future? The profit of this piece is definitely not smaller than the computer, or even larger.

Now Feng Yu will train a group of top software engineers, and then put forward some of their ideas and let the other party turn into reality.

The biggest difference between the mobile phone operating system and the computer operating system is that the mobile operating system occupies less memory, and the future WINDOWS system will occupy more and more storage space.

It is also because it is too big, so they are defeated in the mobile operating system, let Google dominate the world, let the fruit stand out.

If Feng Yu remembers nothing wrong, the two years should be the worst year for Apple Corporation. Steve Jobs seems to have left Apple Corporation. Can Apple Corporation engineers dig up some?

The predecessors of past software engineers are considered to be elite organizations, mainly Microsoft, Google, Fruit, Facebook, etc. As for other Corporation engineers, they are considered to be second-rate, including Yahoo that will stand out in the past two years. The biggest reason they are failed, many people say that they are not making mistakes, but because they don’t have the best technicians and can’t keep the technology ahead.

Feng Yu is too aware of the importance of technology leadership. If you can apply for a patent, you can not only bring in a lot of profits, but also block the progress of others. Of course, it is not the goal to block the progress of others, but it is the most kingly way to stay ahead.

……

“Paul, Feng’s request, what do you think?” Bill Gates had some headaches, and Feng Yu’s conditions were too harsh, but he still couldn’t refuse.

“All refused!” Paul Allen said angrily. “It’s not inconceivable to want to enter the Board of Directors. But he used the China market to threaten us. This is definitely not forgiven. We, Microsoft, can threaten anyone. Is it?”

“Paul, you calm down. I want to reject him too, but he also makes a lot of sense. We need to open the China market, which is a bigger market than North America, and even more than the entire American market. The future has great potential. A big cake, don’t you want to eat it?” Of course he thought about refusing, but the interest was too tempting, so that he couldn’t help but sigh.

“But we are Microsoft, we can let all the hardware companies yield, can’t you let him yield?” Paul Allen asked very dissatisfied. Although Microsoft received sanctions, it also proves the power of Microsoft. Today’s Microsoft is more powerful than yesterday.

“That is China, one of the most powerful countries in the East, and the way of market management is completely different from ours. Even Feng hints that if he does not want us to enter the China market, then we will definitely not be able to enter the China market. Think about it. India, are we not blocked out? If you lose the Indian market and then lose the China market, do you know how much we will lose? If China has also raised its own software system, then we will have more A competitor. A Corporation with state support, the speed of development is absolutely unimaginable!” Bill Gates worried.

Paul Allen’s brow is also locked, and now the other person has a clear attitude. If you cooperate, Microsoft will have no small benefit, but the other side will have greater benefits. Either just take a shot, Microsoft will have a big loss, and the loss of the other party is much smaller.

“Damn, what do we promise him? For example, let him enter the Board of Directors, but let him help Microsoft to enter China completely, Microsoft makes money, and he does not make money.” Paul Allen thought about it.

“I mentioned this, he disagreed. He said that two conditions are indispensable. He wants to enter the Board of Directors and asks us to give Lenovo Corporation the cheapest price, $12!” Bill Gates Shaking his head, if there is only one condition, he may not have to hesitate.

“This price, if it is known by other organizations, will greatly affect the credibility of our Microsoft!”

After all, Microsoft’s system software tying on other Corporation computers is much more expensive. The cost of using any office software is more than $12, not to mention the cost of the system. Once the difference is found to be so serious, then other PC vendors will need to jointly request Microsoft to cut prices, which will make Microsoft lose a lot, and even the stock price will fall.

“Paul, this is also the hardest place for me. Feng also caught this. He entered the Microsoft Board of Directors and will never let this news burst out. And that China’s computer Corporation Lenovo, Feng also has a lot of He will certainly be able to control the shares. He must also guarantee that the news will not be revealed. Otherwise, Microsoft will lose money and Feng will lose a lot of money.”

“Bill, what do you mean, have you decided? Promise his ridiculous conditions? How much can we make at such a cheap price? Millions of dollars, or $10 million?” Paul Allen yelled.

“So I’m going to promise him only this time, offering him a very low price, but asking them to have a clear logo on Microsoft, and a lot of advertising on Microsoft, including the ads in their products. We must also have our advertising campaign. And we can use this to promote it, saying that IE is already the most popular browser in the world, so that we can promote IE browser in Europe and America.”

“That way, how to get him into the Board of Directors, his stocks are non-voting stocks. Once they are all converted into voting stocks, it is a 15% stake!”

“Exchange, you and I each took out 1% of the voting shares to exchange non-voting shares with him. You don’t want to cash in and invest in your new Corporation, just to sell non-voting shares.” Bill? I made a decision.

“Well, since you have made a decision, then I will support you.” Paul Allen slammed the cigar hard.

This damn decision!
