Hangzhou, West Lake.

Chen Yu didn't expect that he would meet Bill in such a way.

This is the place where Mr. Ma held the Huashan Sword Debate back then.

This was where Chen Yu and Bill first met at that time.

At that time, Bill came to the scene as a guest.

At that time, Huanyu Technology was still very weak.

At that time, there was not much intersection between the two at all.

Chen Yu had no idea of competing with Microsoft at that time.

Bill also didn't expect that in a few years, they would compete with Huanyu Technology.

"Chen Yu, do you remember here?"

Of course, I remember that this was the place where Mr. Ma held the West Lake Sword Debate at that time. ”

"Yes, I didn't expect that after that sword debate at that time, your Huanyu Technology was the most potential. ”

"It's over. ”

After receiving Bill's visit, Chen Yu was very surprised.

Regarding Bill's proposal to go to the hotel in West Lake to discuss the sword, Chen Yu did not refuse.

He knew his strategy was a success.

I succeeded in hitting Microsoft.

Otherwise, how would Bill meet himself?

However, today's meeting is different from the last West Lake debate.

Last time, Chen Yu didn't even have the heart to compete with Bill, but now, the two are already fierce rivals.

"Chen Yu, remember, I was in this place at the time, and I asked you what you think of the operating system. ”

"Yes. ”

"Do you remember what you said?"

"I don't remember, what did I say?"

Chen Yu recalled it, and didn't know what he said at that time.

Because at that time, Chen Yu focused on Mr. Ma, and it was too far away for Bill and Microsoft, and he didn't think about it at all.

"At that time, you said that you had no research on the operating system, and there was no technology in this area, so I didn't know how to evaluate it. ”

"Oh, probably. ”

Chen Yu nodded.

Thinking about the environment at the time, this was indeed the case.

At that time, Chen Yu was bent on making money, where would he want to make an operating system.

But I didn't expect that this sentence was a lie. ”

Bill said with a smile.

"Mr. Bill, I'm not lying. ”

Chen Yu shouted that he was wronged.

Why is he deceiving people.

At that time, it wasn't Bill who he was trying to deceive, he was trying to deceive Mr. Ma.

"Well, whether you're fooling or not, it's only been a few years since you've made your own operating system. In addition, you have become our main competitor in China. ”

"It's just China, Microsoft's market is global. ”

"Chen Yu, do you only care about the Chinese market?"

Looking at Chen Yu, Bill asked rhetorically.

Chen Yu did not answer.

He didn't know how to answer.

Obviously, Chen Yu can't only care about the Chinese market, he cares about the world.

He's definitely going to compete with Microsoft in the global market.

However, the first and foremost is the Chinese market.

"Mr. Bill, I'm going to say that I only care about the Chinese market, can you believe it?"

"I don't believe it. ”

Bill also shook his head: "If you only care about the Chinese market, then I don't need to worry so much." ”

"Bill, you don't have to worry at all. Not to mention the global market, let's just say that the Chinese market, is still your windows monopoly market, and our Huanyu system market share is not high. ”

"It's only temporary, who knows later?"

Bill didn't believe Chen's words.

As long as the strength is enough, then he is able to grab more markets.

Just like they Microsoft.

Microsoft was also a small company back then, and there were a lot of operating systems that were better than they did.

At that time, Bill also did not want to monopolize the world.

But as the company got bigger and bigger, they entered the global arena in this way.

Huanyu Technology, as long as they are given a chance, they will be the next Microsoft.

"Okay, Bill, what are you looking for me this time, it's not going to be to catch up with me. ”

"The old should be recounted, and cooperation should also be discussed. ”

"Cooperation?"

Or to put it another way, to negotiate. ”

"Yes. ”

Chen Yu nodded.

It's not hard to guess why Bill is looking for himself.

Just think about it and you'll know.

"Bill, you want us to suspend competition against your non-OS business. Including instant messaging, gaming, office software business?"

"Mr. Chen is smart. ”

"What about the conditions?"

"In the Chinese market, we at Microsoft will stop malicious competition for you for the time being. ”

"Deal. ”

Without hesitation, Chen Yu nodded.

He had already thought about it before he came.

Bill's negotiation is beneficial to both Microsoft and Universal Technology.

Huanyu Technology does not engage in Microsoft's market, and Microsoft's profitability will not be affected.

At the same time, Microsoft does not compete viciously with Huanyu Technology in China, which also gives Chen Yu more opportunities to operate and operate.

Of course, in fact, Chen Yu also knows.

The reason why Bill proposed such a negotiation was to judge that Universal System could not raise the market too much at once in a short period of time.

They're also buying time.

As long as Microsoft picks up competitors in other non-OS businesses during this period.

Then, when they have their free hands, they are ready to deal with Huanyu Technology wholeheartedly.

So, this can only be a verbal negotiation.

Because neither side is sure when the two families will clash again.

"Deal. ”

Bill was a little surprised, how could Chen Yu not even think about it, and directly agreed.

But then I thought about it, and it felt normal.

Huanyu Technology actually wanted them Bill to facilitate this negotiation.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have counterattacked so violently.

"Chen Yu, then we will follow the old rules on your Chinese side, we don't need to sign any agreement, we can reach a gentleman's agreement. ”

"Yes. ”

Chen Yu nodded.

"However, Chen Yu, I have to remind you that after our Microsoft adjustment, you have to be careful. ”

"Bill, you too. ”

Chen Yu also replied directly: "When our Huanyu Technology is ready, you have to worry about whether you Microsoft will be driven out of China by our Huanyu Technology." ”

"That's it, in the future, we will each rely on our abilities. ”

“OK。 ”

"We'll have a meal later. ”

"No problem. ”

Chen Yu shook hands with Bill, and the two sides reached a temporary armistice.

"Chen Yu, you are really a genius, why don't we reach a strategic cooperation, we Microsoft fully support your Huanyu Technology, and you Huanyu Technology also fully support our Microsoft?"

"Do you think this kind of strategic cooperation is useful?"

Although it was a meal, it was just a light meal at the hotel.

After the two finished eating, Bill said suddenly.

"Hehe, I don't think it's possible. ”

Bill laughed dumbly.

Multinational companies like them are like a contest between countries, where there is any strategic cooperation.

Even if it is a strategic cooperation at this time, who knows what will happen in the future?

"But, Chen Yu, do you really think you can compete with our windows?"

"How do you know if you don't give it a try?"

"And, Bill, do you think Microsoft can exist forever?"

"Philosophically, anyone dies and any business goes out of business. Still, I don't think I'll ever see this day in my lifetime. ”

"Mr. Bill, you are decades older than me, and you may not be able to see it in your lifetime, but in my lifetime, it may not be. ”

"Alright then, Chen Yu, I'm back in the United States, and you're welcome to the United States. ”

"Thank you, I'll go. ”

......

"Mr. Chen, how is it?"

Separated from Bill, Chen Yu returned to the Deep City headquarters.

Li Kaifu came to Chen Yu's office with some nervousness.

Chen Yu's negotiation with Microsoft Bill this time is related to the future market of Huanyu system.

As the person in charge of the Huanyu system, Li Kaifu is not nervous.

"It's talked. ”

Chen Yu smiled slightly: "We have reached a temporary truce agreement with Bill, on the condition that we will not move Microsoft's other non-Windows system businesses. ”

"Cooperating with major companies around the world to deal with Microsoft's non-system business itself does not have much benefit for us at Huanyu Technology, and they can also fight for more opportunities for us. ”

Li Kaifu breathed a sigh of relief.

Although this negotiation is only a temporary settlement, it also buys time for Huanyu System.

"Mr. Chen, then in the next step, we will focus on promoting our Huanyu system. ”

Without Microsoft's malicious competition, Li Kaifu has full confidence in promoting the Huanyu system.

However, Chen Yu suddenly raised the corners of his mouth, and said something that made Li Kaifu directly forced: "Kaifu, if we continue to engage in Microsoft, what do you think?"

"Huh?"

Li Kaifu was a little confused: "Mr. Chen, didn't you just negotiate with Bill?"

"The talks were negotiated, but no agreement was signed. ”

"Isn't it a verbal promise?"

"What is a verbal promise, let alone a verbal promise, you can tear it up if you reach a contract. ”

That's right.

Although he had a good conversation with Bill today, Chen Yu really didn't want to reconcile with Microsoft.

Jokes, reconciliation.

Why Settle?

He finally got so many bigwigs to work on Microsoft together, how could he give up?

Besides, as long as you unite a large number of bigwigs to find trouble with Microsoft, Microsoft will have no time to deal with them.

If Chen Yuzhen listened to what Bill said, it seems that the Huanyu system has a relatively moderate development time.

But didn't Bill say that?

When they deal with the other bigwigs, then Bill will really focus on dealing with them Huanyu Technology.

At this time, Chen Yu will reconcile with Microsoft, and then his head will be in water.

"Wang Chang, contact Apple and ask Boss Qiao if he is interested in dealing with Bill together?"

took out the phone and called Wang Chang who was far away in the United States.

Chen Yu wants to show Bill what it means to turn his face faster than turning a book.
