Chapter 1003: A Monkey to Admire?
Fang Chen's words did not surprise Bill Gates, Fang Chen praised him so much just now, if he couldn't guess that Fang Chen was going to make a fuss about charity, then he was probably not far from Alzheimer's.
"Fang, you know, I'm not too rich now, and I believe in your Huaxia government, Huaxia is a big country, and it's capable of doing these ......," Bill Gates said with resistance written on his face.
He does like to donate money and do charity, but it doesn't mean that he wants to donate money to Huaxia.
Donating money to charities in the United States will not only give him a good reputation, but will also play a great role in helping Microsoft to develop its business, and most importantly, the money donated can be used to offset taxes.
This kind of good things that can not only earn face, but also earn inside, why not?
Even if he donated to Africa, he was not willing to donate to Huaxia.
Donate to Africa because there are a large number of black people in the United States, and even Black Lives Matter has become an untouchable political correctness in the United States, and if he donates to Africa, he can not only attract the praise of those black people, but even some so-called white elites in the United States will praise him greatly.
And donate to Huaxia, what can he get?
Is it a compliment from the Chinese people?
Or is it a tax exemption from the Chinese government?
He doesn't need these two for the time being, and it is debatable whether Huaxia has a tax exemption for donations.
"No, Bill, it doesn't matter how much money you have, even a dollar is love. Of course, I'm sure you won't donate just a dollar, and besides, you just brought Pitman to me and caused me so much trouble, don't you think you should do anything to comfort my wounded heart?" Fang Chen winked at Bill Gates, revealing an innocent and injured look.
Wu Maocai on the side couldn't help but cover his face, what about the sky, is the ninth master selling cuteness?
It's too spicy for the eyes, it's really not eye-catching.
Bill Gates even had the urge to strangle Fang Chen, he took Pittman to cause trouble for Fang Chen?
God, descend your boundless majesty and purify this damned fellow!
He obviously watched Fang Chen ruthlessly extort a large amount of money from Pittman, and it was right for Pittman to sign a humiliating contract.
Really, he feels sorry for Pittman.
Really strictly calculated, Fang Chen should be grateful to him.
As soon as Pitman left, from Fang Chen's mouth, it became that he caused trouble for Fang Chen.
"And, Bill, if you think about it, Microsoft's business is about to be launched on a large scale in Huaxia, and it should be a good thing for you to donate some money to the people of Huaxia now to create a good reputation, and if I were you, I would definitely take out this money as soon as possible." Fang Chen said with a smile.
Bill Gates rolled his eyes and said weakly: "Okay, Fang, I admit that what you said is right, how much money are you going to pay for me, I told you in advance, ten million dollars is impossible, no, more than one million dollars is impossible, Microsoft can't compare with Northrop's arms seller." ”
He compromised, but by no means for the sake of the Chinese people.
Instead, he knew that if he didn't get any blood out today, he would definitely not be able to escape, and Fang Chen would definitely entangle him, making him unrestful at noon, so that his plan for noon today would be completely ruined, and he planned to get acquainted with some parliamentarians and cabinet members at noon today.
Now it is up to you to avoid disaster.
As soon as Bill Gates's voice fell, Fang Chen said decisively: "That's a million dollars." ”
"Fang, it's really an honor in my life to know such a friend as you. ”
At Fang Chen's urging, Bill Gates gritted his teeth and signed a check, and then after confirming that Fang Chen had nothing else to do, he immediately slipped away.
Looking at Bill Gates' hurried back, Fang Chen couldn't help but touch his chin, how did he feel as if he had seen this scene just now.
As soon as the thought turned, Fang Chen suddenly smiled, didn't he just see it, Pittman's appearance of leaving in a hurry was exactly the same as Bill Gates at this time.
Flicked the check in his hand, Fang Chen showed a smug smile, no matter how small the fly is, it is meat, a million dollars is a million dollars, he doesn't dislike it, and he doesn't get up at four o'clock in the morning.
Counting up, today's trip is really not in vain, 11 million US dollars, almost half of the money given to Clinton before, and a huge amount of money has been injected into the Qingtian Charity Foundation.
This money can help many primary and secondary school students who have dropped out of school because of money, can improve their school environment, and has also won a group of scientists from Bell Labs, which is simply killing three birds with one stone, not killing four birds with one stone, because it also greatly satisfies his bad taste.
However, the most important thing is that he didn't pay anything, he just stopped stuck in Northrop's neck, and he could do it in one sentence.
"Maocai, call Berezovsky and ask him to let Northrop go and let our people stop targeting Northrop, and it seems that my face is worth a little more, maybe one day, I can earn a lot of money by lying there and doing nothing." ”
Hearing this, Wu Mao couldn't help but roll his eyes, Jiu Ye's words, half of the sentence is quite serious, but what the hell is this second half of the sentence?
Seriously, he already knows enough about the Ninth Master, but if the Ninth Master sometimes pops up, he really can't understand it.
But fortunately, Huiming, a Buddhist disciple who thinks that Buddhism is profound, also can't understand it.
All of a sudden, his mind became much more balanced.
Bill Gates left, Fang Chen hid in a corner by himself, and asked Wu Maocai to bring him whatever he wanted to eat.
But even so, it couldn't stop many people who were interested in him, and they came over to hand him a business card or something.
But seriously, he doesn't know much of these people except Steve Case, the chairman and CEO of AOL, and John Chambers, the CEO and president of Cisco.
And even Steve Keys and John Chambers are no different from others, they all handed him a business card, chatted a few words and left, compared to others, Fang Chen just happened to know them.
And Fang Chen can clearly feel that the reason why these people come to greet him and hand him business cards is that in addition to wanting to get to know him Fang Chen, he feels that he Fang Chen may still have some strength, maybe he can use it in the future, and make a good relationship in advance, the most is because of curiosity.
That's right, it's curiosity.
From their expressions and tentative words, Fang Chen could feel that they were quite curious about how he started from Russia and Huaxia, and why he was able to lay such a huge foundation at such a young age.
For a moment, Fang Chen felt like a monkey in a cage for everyone to admire.
Of course, Fang Chen also met some people who were a little hostile to him, as for his Chinese identity or because of Clinton, it is not very clear, maybe both, after all, there are not a few people who hate his Chinese identity and Clinton at the same time.
After the luncheon, there are various celebratory ceremonies that the American people love to see.
The presidential motorcade travels along Pennsylvania Avenue with a guard of honor, civic groups, marching bands and floats, and in the evening there is a popular ball to celebrate the president's inauguration.
And Fang Chen fled before the end of the ball, because he had already seen many American reporters looking at him with bad intentions.
But seriously, he doesn't plan to be interviewed by them and make a splash in the United States.
After all, this is the United States, and unlike China and Russia, which are his basic plates, he has the obligation to let the people know more about him, and even win the favor of the people.
What do the Americans have to do with him?
And he is still in a hurry to pack his bags and prepare to return home, according to domestic time, it is already the early morning of January 21, and the domestic 22nd is Chinese New Year's Eve, so he must leave tonight.
He didn't want to miss the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet at home, in that case, the old man would definitely be unhappy.
Thinking of Chinese New Year's Eve and the New Year, Fang Chen's mouth couldn't help but wipe a warm smile from the corners of his mouth.
The Chinese New Year is an extremely important event for everyone, and it is also a time of the year when you can not have much leisure to experience the warmth of home.
Home has always been the most fetters in every Chinese person's heart.
Otherwise, it would not be as soon as the Chinese New Year arrives, and hundreds of millions of Chinese people will travel thousands of miles, with large bags and small bags, and they will not be afraid of the hardships of the road and have to go home for the New Year.
In addition, after returning to China for the New Year, he will come to the United States again in two months, because at that time the Silicon Valley Technology Conference will be held, and now his JAVA, known as the only programming language that can defeat Microsoft's hegemony, will be officially unveiled in front of the world.
Java is more than just a language, but a programming model for Windows, an alternative to COM, and Java programming is much easier than C++ programming in many cases, and more lethal is that it is cross-platform.
This is very important, as I said before that the hegemony of Windows is based on a large number of software, and the vast majority of computer software in the world is written on Windows, after all, Windows is the most widely used operating system in the world.
Only by using Windows as a platform to write software can we ensure that the interests of software companies are maximized.
And it is these hundreds of thousands, written on Windows, that have become the moat of Microsoft's hegemony.
After all, for the vast majority of people in the world, the use of computers is actually to use the above software, not to develop the original purpose of computers - computing power.
To give a very simple example, the computing power of supercomputing is a million times that of ordinary home computers, but for ordinary people, it is not as interesting as the Xiaobawang game console.
If the software is written in a different programming language, it means that if you want to run it on a different operating system, you will have to rewrite it.
This means that once the user leaves Microsoft's operating system, they will fall into the embarrassing situation of having no software to use, can you imagine facing a computer with no office software, no games, no voice chat tools, no download tools, and even browsing the Internet?
Over time, as more and more software is available on Microsoft's operating system, users will naturally become more and more inseparable from Microsoft's operating system.
This is also the reason why the domestic operating system has not been able to develop, not because it is much behind Windows, but mainly because it cannot provide software that satisfies users.
Even if it weren't for some hobbyists and countries organizing some software companies to provide software for these domestic operating systems, then these domestic operating systems really can't even be used for office, let alone playing games.
THE CROSS-PLATFORM NATURE OF JAVA IS PRECISELY AIMED AT THE HEGEMONY OF MICROSOFT.
SOFTWARE WRITTEN IN JAVA CAN EASILY RUN ON OTHER OPERATING SYSTEMS, WHICH MEANS THAT MICROSOFT CANNOT MONOPOLIZE THESE SOFTWARE AND CANNOT TIE USERS TO IT.
MICROSOFT DIDN'T SIT IDLY BY, AND WITHIN TWO YEARS OF JAVA'S LAUNCH, IT DISCOVERED THE THREAT IT POSED TO IT, SO IT QUIETLY PROVIDED SOME EXTENSIONS FOR JAVA SO THAT PROGRAMS WRITTEN IN JAVA WOULD WORK BETTER IN WINDOWS BUT NOT ON OTHER PLATFORMS.
Subsequently, the J++ language and Visual j++ integrated programming tools were introduced, and a large number of modifications were made to Java, as a result, Sun sued Microsoft for violating the antitrust law on the grounds that Microsoft Group discriminated against the use of Java software in order to maintain its monopoly position in the Windows operating system.
In 2001, Sun won the case, and according to a settlement agreement between the two parties, Microsoft was not allowed to make any changes to the Java language included in the Windows operating system, and was awarded $20 million in damages.
At the end of the year, Microsoft deliberately did not install Java software when launching a new version of the operating system Windows XP and a new version of IE, and launched its own language C# and .net framework created by imitating Java, and then Sun continued to sue Microsoft and won.
In 2002, Microsoft simply said that from 2004 onwards, Microsoft's Windows operating system would no longer support Java for security reasons.
Naturally, Sun also continued to sue Microsoft, and the judge also said in Sun's favor that "Microsoft has used Windows' monopoly to undermine Sun's Java sales channels." The only way to establish market justice is to correct what Microsoft has done and prevent Microsoft from reaping future benefits from its past mistakes!"
And Microsoft was sentenced to pay $2 billion to Sun.
Repeatedly defeated, and each time the compensation paid more and more, it was really not worth it, and Microsoft stopped targeting JAVA from then on.
Therefore, Fang Chen believes that when Bill Gates understands the threat of JAVA to himself and knows that JAVA is in his hands, his expression will be exciting.
And maybe it will be very good for him, after all, unlike the small fights of office software, JAVA is the thing that really shakes the foundation of Microsoft, and if JAVA is allowed to develop like this, Microsoft's hegemony will no longer exist.
However, Fang Chen still hopes that Bill Gates's head can be clearer and not do such stupid things, after all, in the previous life, Microsoft did not win, let alone have his life.
But if you really hate, then hate, it doesn't matter.
