After entering IBM’s Board of Directors, Xia Yu as it should be by rights has the right to visit any department of IBM, including the microcomputer development department.

This department has just been established for more than ten days, and there are only 3 people, all of whom are active-minded elite backbones. Among them, the Manager is Don Esther.

When Xia Yu came to Bocaleyton’s secret development department, she saw a group of people who were busy, and it was Project Manager Don Este Qi who received him.

“Tang, very happy to meet you, I am the company’s new board member Xia Yu.”

For the father of the later generation of IBM’s PC, Xia Yu not at all put on some airs and greeted him kindly.

“Hello, Mr. Xia!”

Don Esther Qi shook hands with Xia Yu and said hello politely.

After a brief greeting, Xia Yu smelled the development of microcomputers: “Tang, have you made any progress in the development of microcomputers?”

Don Esther Qi took Xia Yu to the studio and said: “There is no formal development yet. I am studying the growth trajectory of Apple. I hope to develop a more comprehensive development plan.”

Xia Yu admired: “It’s a very good idea. There is a saying in China called know yourself and know your enemy emerge victorious in every battle. Apple has created the miracle of microcomputers. If you can deeply grasp the context of its rise, A correct strategic plan can save a lot of energy.”

Xia Yu’s words came to Don Este Chikan, and he smiled and said, “Yes, I thought so at the time, so I did it.”

While speaking, the entire group came to the studio. Xia Yu saw that there were more than a dozen people in the studio. A group of people was surrounded by a large table with a lot of materials on it, and they were still whispering about what they were studying. , The work is very serious.

Some employees saw Xia Yu and Don Esther Qi, but only nodded to signal, and then continued to work.

This attitude makes Xia Yu secretly nodded. This is the mental outlook that employees should have. They spend their energy and time at work, and there is no need to spend their energy and time on the job.

A truly wise Boss is a person who likes to create value for the company, not a person who only shoots flattery.

After all, to start a company, making money is the first purpose. If the bureaucracy in the company is pervasive, it will be strange that the company can develop well.

After staying in IBM for a few days, Xia Yu discovered that the bureaucracy in IBM was relatively heavy.

It’s no wonder that Frank T. Cary did not put the microcomputer project department in the company, but separately transferred personnel and set up the department outside of the company. The project team was able to devote themselves to the development of the microcomputer in the best state.

“Tang, are there any research results now?”

Stopping Don Esther Qi from disturbing everyone, Xia Yu asked in a low voice.

Don Esther Chi nodded introduced: “Yes, our research concluded that if we want to launch our microcomputer as soon as possible, and quickly spread it to the market, we must implement an’open’ policy. A complete microcomputer needs There are too many parts and software. It is not realistic to rely on our company to produce it. It is time-consuming and labor-intensive. The best way is to use the scientific and technological achievements of other companies to form a market force, accelerate the development speed, and enhance the competitiveness of products.”

Xia Yu knows that Don Esther Qi wants to outsource software and purchase the best products for hardware.

To put it bluntly, part of it is self-produced, part of it is purchased, and a microcomputer is assembled, and then try its best to debug and run in to achieve the highest degree of software and hardware adaptation.

However, this strategy is indeed best used when backward, especially when Apple is still running wildly, this strategy is the best choice.

After all, no matter which company, it is impossible to be the first in all aspects of the market, which is simply unrealistic.

It is precisely because of this strategy of Don Esther Qi that IBM’s first PC will use Intel’s 8088 microprocessor as the computer hub and commission an independent software company to configure various software for it. With Microsoft and IBM signed a contract to develop DOS.

If IBM plans to do it on its own, where is Bill Gates? Microsoft is even more impossible!

“When will the final result of the research come down? When do you plan to report to it?”

Xia Yu asked Don Esther Quietly.

Don Esther Qi didn’t notice Xia Yu’s thoughts. He truthfully said: “The microcomputer is the company’s most important project, so I must do my best, so I’m not sure at the moment, and I’m not sure what I will encounter later. difficult.”

“But according to my preliminary estimate, it will take at least one month to make the research results and then report to it.”

“A month!”

Xia Yu is certain in his heart that this time is still enough, he doesn’t need to worry so much and has more time to plan slowly.

Next, Xia Yu learned more about the situation and put forward a constructive proposal that made Don Este Qi’s eyes on Xia Yu changed, which aroused his curiosity. Discussed for a long time.

In the end, when Xia Yu left, Don Este Qi was a little bit disappointed, but considering that Xia Yu was a board member of the company, he was not qualified to let Xia Yu stay and help.

After coming out of the project department, Xia Yu just ate lunch before heading to Redmond, Washington.

The target he is staring at is there!

That night, Xia Yu arrived in Redmond. He found a top hotel to stay in and take a good rest.

Next day, he found Microsoft Corporation according to the information address he had searched before.

At this time, although Microsoft has been established for 5 years, its main product is BASIC interpreter.

BASIC interpreter is needed in microcomputers, but because of market capacity problems, although Microsoft BASIC has become the market standard leader in this field with special syntax and compatibility, Microsoft’s turnover is not high.

Therefore, Microsoft at this time can only be regarded as a well-known, but not strong software company.

The information collected by Xia Yu also wrote that Microsoft had tried to design the MSX microcomputer standard to enter the microcomputer market, but the results were not satisfactory.

When Xia Yu and the others joined Microsoft, they happened to see Paul Alan who was precocious and full beard.

Seeing Xia Yu entire group, Paul Alan was taken aback, and then he thought that Xia Yu and the others were talking about business, and immediately greeted him with a smile: “Hello, I am Paul Alan, the chief engineer of Microsoft Corporation, what can I do for you? Do you serve it?”
