Chapter Eighty-Seven: Walk in Someone Else's Way
When window-based interaction allows people who use computers to easily operate without having professional computer language skills to input rote commands,
This kind of software that uses mouse clicks to operate can show its power.
"Luo Li, what do you think will be more profitable for us to develop now? ”
Although Brother Pony's words were soft and slow,
But Luo Li could clearly see that his undulating chest could not hide the excitement in his heart at all.
"Just make this office software!"
Luo Li pointed to the table on the computer screen and said to Brother Xiaoma.
But after his words fell, Brother Xiao Ma turned his head to look at the people around him who were as hesitant as him, and suddenly said:
"Based on WI
Hasn't Microsoft developed DOWS's office software?
If we imitate it again, will it involve infringement?
Moreover, the leader of the domestic word processing software market is Kingsoft.
If we want to develop this software, we can't compete with Kingsoft, right?"
"It's easy to do!
Let's first develop a word processing software based on the DOS system.
The functionality is modeled after Microsoft's.
Kingsoft's software has a single function, only processing text.
But if we launch a complete set of office software for processing text and forms,
They can't beat us.
etc
After dows95 officially entered the country,
We'll roll out WI right away
dows version of the software,
The software must be more powerful than Microsoft's.
At that time, Microsoft not only couldn't come up with evidence to sue us,
On the contrary, they will look at our back and try their best to cooperate with us. ”
The reason why Luo Li said it so firmly,
It's entirely because he knows that WPS and Microsoft fell in love with each other in his previous life.
When Jinshan shifted positions from DOS came to wi
Dows platform,
Microsoft not only did not ban it, but cooperated with it,
Make WPS software compatible with Microsoft software.
But the consequence of this is that
Domestic users quickly abandoned software such as Kingsoft Typing with a single function.
Switched to the more powerful Microsoft camp.
You know, before Microsoft came to China,
In the field of computer word processing software, Kingsoft Company occupies 80% of the market.
But after Microsoft's conspiracy, Kingsoft's word processing software share quickly fell to less than 10%.
made this leading domestic software company almost lose its stall.
"Your plan to repair the plank road and secretly Chen Cang is good,
But there are a few points that I am a little confused about.
First of all, how can we develop a more powerful software system than Microsoft?
They're pioneers, and we have to imitate their software first. Breakthrough is not something that can be achieved overnight.
The second point is that even if we have developed a more powerful office software system under the DOS system than Kingsoft,
But their market share is just too big,
Besides, users are used to Kingsoft's software, can we really compete with them?"
Brother Pony hit the nail on the head and asked the question,
But Luo Li smiled, as if he had already made up his mind.
HE TURNED AROUND AND REOPENED WORD,
He pointed to the function frame and reexplained it to Brother Xiao Ma and the others.
"You see, this typography feature.
At present, Microsoft can only provide 2 sets of modules,
In fact, we can also add the paper module and the professional report module
......
And this,
We can use mail merge to set the contents of Excel sheets into wo
d,
Also, we can insert graphics, images, sounds, animations, etc. into the text....."
Luo Li spent more than an hour,
Constantly proposing to everyone all aspects of office function improvement,
This made everyone, including Brother Xiaoma, involuntarily take out a small notebook and write down the ideas put forward by Luo Li one by one.
Whenever Luo Li pointed to a functional area and made a suggestion,
All will look at the young man who spoke with adoration,
The shock in my heart came one after another.
But where do they know,
These innovative features that Luo Li said,
In fact, it was all founded by Microsoft.
It's just that Microsoft has spent more than 20 years of technology accumulation to continuously improve the added functions, all of which were borrowed by Luo Li in advance.
When Luo Li finished speaking,
Brother Pony flipped through the small notebook he remembered densely packed in his hand,
The dumbfounded muttered:
"In addition to the consistency of the basic functions,
It's a new piece of software.
Microsoft is. ”
Luo Li didn't hear Brother Pony's murmuring,
He only saw that Brother Xiao Ma and everyone behind him were staring at the notes in their hands seriously, looking thoughtful.
As a computer student, Luo Li did not interrupt everyone's thinking,
At this time, it is the best time for everyone to let go of their thinking.
Maybe some of them will come up with even more out-of-the-box ideas.
This is the programmer's impulse.
All innovation comes from the impulse of thought.
After a long time, Luo Li saw that everyone was sober from thinking one by one,
Then he suddenly asked:
"Oh, that's right!
How much is a set of Pangu software from Kingsoft?"
Luo Li's inquiry interrupted Brother Pony's thoughts,
Brother Xiao Ma thought that his second question Luo Li had not yet answered,
So after thinking about it diligently, he replied:
"It seems like two thousand dollars.
What, do you want to compete with them with low prices?"
"No, we're free!"
Luo Li blurted out excitedly.
"Free?"
As soon as Luo Li's words fell, everyone began to look at each other.
What's more, his face has become a little ugly,
They were all very puzzled by Luo Li's decision,
Why should the software developed by yourself be free of charge?
It's a painstaking effort,
That's a fortune.
