Chapter 24 IT Market Turmoil
The market prospects for microcomputers are bright, and the so-called leading companies are just a joke.
No matter how hard Apple tries, the market share is only 30%, and since you can double your sales, everyone else will have no problem.
The beta version of Wright's software is already out and the market response has been quite good, and in a month at most, everyone is back to a starting line.
It's not for nothing that software companies want a piece of the pie, and these guys eventually chose to give up.
There is no other reason, this patent barrier is really terrible, the most hateful is the file format, if you can't get the authorization, you must not use other people's file formats.
Of course, you can choose to find another way, but do you have so many customers, and when your software comes out, people will already occupy the market.
When the software is bought to a certain extent, the cost is negligible, and people don't necessarily lose money when they sell 9.9, so what do you do to compete with others?
The sudden surge in sales has made the entire industry start to get excited. No matter what computer company it is, it's essentially an assembly shop.
The large number of parts orders has made IT companies very excited. Now that the market is sluggish, these orders have really allowed some companies to tide over the difficulties.
Survey reports from a number of business organizations show that this is not an impulse purchase, and there are many companies with similar needs. The eventual demand is huge, and it is expected to reach 1.5 million units next year.
the groove
This is the idea of most industry insiders, if you add the demand in Europe and Asia, a proper sales of 2 million!
Lao Mei is very good at this, their investigation agency is very professional, as long as you can pay enough fees, their investigation report is very reliable.
For the stubbornness of Da Mo, Apple is already planning to change people.
Being questioned by customers about their professionalism, Da Mo is of course very unhappy, but this is the case, and they can't refute it.
Da Mo's worries are not unfounded, and it is doubtful that the competition will intensify in the second half of the year, and whether Apple can remain strong.
It is also an indisputable fact that the competition will intensify in the second half of the year, and Qiao Dashen is naturally very unhappy, he thinks that he has suffered a big loss and needs to go to William White to settle accounts.
The faces of several other executives were black, and they didn't have the courage to refuse the conditions they gave at the beginning.
In fact, Apple took a big advantage, and Marcula even knew that the White software had actually been developed a long time ago, and now it is just keeping its promise at the time, and Qiao Dashen is now running over to make noise, maybe people will be on the shelves tomorrow.
Apple's top brass was trying to persuade Qiao Dashen, and several of Da Mo's guys quickly fell into a stupor.
the groove
The most worthy investment is White Software, no wonder this product will only carry out Series A financing next year.
Valuation of 20 million US dollars?
Are you sure you're not here to be funny?
Even if only half of the computers have software installed, they have a proper revenue of more than 100 million.
Earning 50 million is not too much, right?
You actually want to use 2 million to buy 10% of other people's shares, and it is already good to be self-contained if people don't scold.
What if there are competitors? It's impossible to sell both of these software all the time!
What do you think people are recruiting for?
Used to maintain software?
Let's not joke, there are so many software engineers who are obviously writing new software, and the outside world just doesn't know.
Bill Gates was very depressed, he couldn't figure it out, William, the bastard who came out of there, how could he soar into the sky.
But this depression is also very short-lived, Bill's child quickly became excited, since this guy can, why can't I, my future achievements will definitely surpass this guy.
I have to say that people who fail have their own reasons, but successful people will not have any luck, even this spirit of becoming more and more courageous is definitely not something that ordinary people can do.
"Boss, Qiao Dashen came here just now and lost his temper. ”
"Haha, you call Makura, our software has been ready for a long time, if I were a listed company, I wouldn't be able to hide it at all. ”
"Okay, boss, I'll call him right away. ”
Qiao Dashen's accusation, in William White's opinion, is envy, jealousy and hatred, and it is estimated that it will not take him long to figure it out.
For this wayward guy, Apple's senior management is also very speechless, but fortunately, people don't care, and it will pass with a smile.
The people at White Software know very well that the boss is very fond of this guy and will definitely not bother with him because of some trivial things. So he has no scruples in the White Company, and people are also tossed by him.
Talented people are always unruly, and this is the same all over the world, and the smiling tiger is the most troublesome, such as Bill Gates.
Qiao Dashen is a very proud person, so he disdains other people's products. Bill is different, this product is used in every way, and if you are targeted by him, you better be careful.
Almost all of his products are abducted and tricked, almost none of his original ones are there, and the window system is also dressed in the skin of Apple.
When he first started his business, he almost went bankrupt because of this, but have you seen any changes in him?
Some people say that his success is mainly luck, that his wife has a relationship with the blue giant, and that his success is just a coincidence.
I want to say that if you are not prepared, it is useless to give you coincidences, and his success is definitely not lucky. Even without working with the Big Blue, this will still be a success.
"Young Master, the person you need is here. ”
"Well, I'll go over it. ”
He is now a private company, and it is no problem to arrange his subordinates, and the software company does not have much to do, so these people can naturally come over and help him build game consoles.
These guys are very sure that their boss is a workaholic, and so many drawings are obviously not something that can be completed in a day or two.
The company's benefits are good, and the boss is generous enough, everything in the United States is in vain, and a lot of American knives are thrown up, and they will work very hard.
These guys are not workers, they naturally have a higher pursuit of life, the company of White is very special, here is the point system, you will be promoted and raised when you reach a certain number, and there are equity incentives when you reach a certain number. These things can be cumulative, and there is no need to go into detail about how attractive they are.
"Guys, three months, I'm only giving you three months, I need to see results, is there a problem?"
"The owner was reassured that we didn't have any problems. ”
"Okay, thank you for your hard work, tell the housekeeper if you have any needs. ”
"Okay, boss. ”
It's basically over here, and he doesn't need to do it himself. With detailed drawings and plans, if they still can't figure it out, then the bastards should be fired.
In a sense, they are just senior engineers and code farmers, this kind of work is done by Ah San in later generations, and their only advantage is that the technology is comprehensive, so as to avoid repeated inspections.
There's no way to put these guys in Silicon Valley, after all, there are so many people that some secrets can't be concealed.
