Chapter 570: Capture the Microsoft Base Camp

Of course, it's useless to rely on free alone.

Because of domestic piracy, many users use Office for free.

Office is free, and so is WPS.

Undoubtedly, Office is more awesome than WPS, so why use WPS?

Therefore, in this, free is only the premise, and providing better services than office is the goal.

In Chen Yu's suggestion, Kingsoft provides a WPS lite version.

The so-called lite version is to discard some features that are not commonly used, and only keep the most commonly used settings.

This also reduces the size of the entire wps from 1G to about 50M.

Don't look like it's nothing.

You know, in 2004, the domestic Internet was still not particularly fast.

If you use the download, you usually have to download programs that are larger than 1G or even larger than 500M for several hours.

It's like downloading an online game client.

Many users often take more than 12 hours to download.

If you encounter a bad internet speed, you are more likely to download for more than 24 hours.

Can you imagine using a software to download for a day and a night?

Although this was in the previous life of 2020, it was basically impossible.

Even if it is to download dozens of gigabytes of torrents, it does not take a day and a night.

But that was the way it was.

Because of this, if the wps is only 50M in size, it is extremely attractive.

At least when the user wants to use the software of the office software, he may consider downloading the office at that time, but one glance at the office download takes a day and a night, and then it only takes ten minutes to download the wps.

Which do you say he would be willing to download?

Not to mention 2004, even if it was 2020 in the previous life, 1G would rather download 50M compared to 50M.

Although WPS is not as powerful as Office, it is barely usable.

And because of the small volume and capacity, many commonly used functions are placed in the navigation bar.

You don't need to always look for it, it's more convenient to operate than to use office.

This is one of them.

Second, WPS is connected to the Internet.

In the past, whether it was WPS or Office, it was an independent program.

He's like a single-player game, he's not connected to the internet.

But Chen Yu believes that this will not work.

Although office software does not need to be connected to the Internet, if Lenovo, it can give birth to more functions.

It's like input method software.

Should the input method software be networked?

He can indeed not be linked

However, he can indeed be linked.

As soon as you connect to the Internet, a range of services emerge.

For example, provide more beautiful template materials.

There are table materials, picture materials, and online font materials in this material.

Speaking of which, when many users use office software, they can just type, and they can more or less get a form. But if you want to say how proficient you are in these office software, you really don't. There are even times when a lot of people don't know how to make a form. Even if I know how to do it, I don't know how to make a more beautiful form.

It's good now.

It doesn't matter if you can't do it.

WPS has a variety of templates inside, you just need to click to download, and you can live the form on your office software with one click.

Isn't it simple?

Isn't it awesome?

This is simply as simple as using Douyin to shoot awesome videos in the previous life.

In addition to that, there is an even more powerful feature.

This function, that is the cloud storage function.

This comes with cloud services.

Although this concept will not become popular until a few years later, Chen Yu also mentioned it at this time.

As long as the user uses WPS, the content generated by their WPS will be automatically uploaded to the cloud service.

This way, even if the power is off, the cloud service can save your documents.

On the other hand, you don't have to bake it on a USB stick after using WPS.

Because there is a server, the next time you log in to another computer and enter your account number, the document you edited before will be on the server.

It can be said that these services are specially opened for Microsoft Office.

Although he doesn't have much technology, he is very practical and easy to promote.

At that time, when he heard Chen Yu's suggestion, Qiu Bojun was extremely shocked.

He didn't expect WPS to be able to make a difference.

Although WPS had not yet been launched at that time, with these features, Qiu Bojun was sure to have a good fight with Microsoft Office. Thinking like this, Qiu Bojun still has some regrets about how he gave up so many shares. But later, Qiu Bojun also figured it out, if it weren't for Chen Yu like this, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to think of it in his life.

Even if you can come up with it, you don't have the money to promote it.

You know, just these features, if you don't spend money to promote them, it's also not good.

Kingsoft WPS has been losing money for several years in a row, and it can't come up with much money at all.

Only by cooperating with Huanyu Technology is the most correct choice.

......

"Mr. He, congratulations. ”

"Thank you. ”

"Mr. He, how many years have you been in China?"

"It's been 10 years. ”

"It's so long. ”

"Yes, but I like China very much. ”

He Lebing, the newly appointed president of Microsoft China, chatted with several subordinates during the lunch break.

Although the MSN business has not yet launched a major counteroffensive with YY these days, Microsoft's resources have been tilted to the side of China, and as long as time is given, MSN will definitely be able to replace YY's position in the future.

However, there is still one thing that gives him a headache.

That is MSN's cooperation in the business office, and many enterprises dare not cooperate with Microsoft again.

For example, some companies like Alibaba.

It turned out that they used MSN as their Ali customer service, but accidentally, MSN turned out to be dating software.

Thinking of this, He Lebing scolded Tang Jun in his heart.

Damn, if it weren't for him, MSN would have millions of users.

However, after thinking about it later, He Lebing didn't blame Tang Jun.

If Tang Jun does not step down, where can he become the president of Microsoft China?

"China is indeed a good place, there are more than a billion people here, and the future Internet market has huge potential. However, that Huanyu Technology is not easy to deal with. ”

"Huanyu Technology is really powerful, but they are just a rising company, and their strength looks strong, but they can't last long. Of course, we can't underestimate each other, and if there is another Tang Jun incident, we will all be finished. ”

He Lebing is a pragmatic person.

Although pragmatic people do not have such strong ambitions, they are also very practical and know how to square inches.

He knows that the battle between Microsoft and Universal Technology is a protracted battle, and it will not be possible to determine the winner overnight.

At this time, you have to be patient.

Whoever can hold out until the end will win.

"Alright, come on, everyone. ”

After a brief chat, He Lebing returned to the office.

He still has a lot of work to do.

The president of Microsoft China is not only responsible for MSN instant messaging.

He is also responsible for all of Microsoft's business in China.

For example, the operating system.

Another example is the office software business.

Of course, there is also the IE business, the database business, and the game business.

He Lebing, who has just taken office as the president of Microsoft China, must be familiar with these businesses in all aspects.

Although he was already familiar with it before, it was not the position of president before after all, and there was a lot of data that he couldn't see.

Now as president, a series of data that he did not have permission to open up to him before.

"This ......"

At first, He Lebing just learned about some of the data.

But when carefully analyzing these data, He Lebing found a problem.

There is no problem with the operating system.

The problem is office and IE business.

These two businesses have been the same as the operating system before, and there is almost no problem.

Because these two businesses are very stable, and there are no rivals.

Even if there are some competitors, they are just cats and dogs, and they can't be raised to the table.

But......

Now when he looks at the data, he is shocked.

"Why did the office and IE business drop so much all of a sudden?"

"It can't be. ”

He Lebing was a little panicked.

MSN is important, but in the end it is only a marginal business for Microsoft.

If you can do it well, it's best to do it well, and if you don't do it, they can't collapse Microsoft.

But Office and Internet Explorer, they are Microsoft's core business.

Although from the data, this decline is only about 5 points.

But with the Chinese market crowd, the drop of 5 points is already extremely terrifying.

And most importantly, the 5-point drop basically announces the emergence of a strong competitor.
