Chapter 16: A Bite of an Apple

William White's youth shocked several guys. Although Qiao Dashen is also very young, this product is relatively middle two, and he deliberately makes himself very mature.

The two companies are very close. Just a few steps away. A couple of guys from Apple, obviously earlier than the agreed time.

If it is a more formal setting, such behavior is very impolite. In Silicon Valley, it doesn't matter. It's all about young people. If you are too hypocritical, you will be ridiculed.

After a pleasantries. William White didn't show too much politeness, and took them directly to the conference room.

In the eyes of these people, William White was more of an engineer. I also wore a suit, but it wasn't a very formal suit. Dressed closer to an engineer from Silicon Valley. And not the elite of Wall Street.

The conference room was also a bit cluttered. There were four or five Apple computers on a huge conference table. Obviously, the computers were all dismantled, and several of them had their cases uncovered.

This mess did not displease them. It only makes them even more happy.

"Guys, how is the coffee? I haven't officially opened my business yet. There's really no way. ”

"You're welcome, the coffee is very good. Mr. White, can you give us a look at the software first?"

"Macura, you'd better call me William. The projector hasn't been installed yet.,I'll use this guy to demonstrate.,The computers in front of you are all installed.。 You can also see for yourself. ”

"Okay, William, I'm looking forward to it. ”

"Thank you, we're launching an office suit. It is made up of a word processing system and tables. ”

"For small and medium-sized enterprises, these charts with functional functions can solve a lot of problems. For example, personnel salaries, such as product inventory. ”

For this thing, several of Apple's top brass are obviously very interested. Very excited, to be exact.

That's what the hell is actually used for the computer. It's hard to say whether it's useful personally. Small and medium-sized enterprises really need this thing.

Well, it's not too fast.

But this one is not a problem at all. Small and medium-sized businesses don't need that speed. They're still using calculators. For accounting and warehouse management. This form is almost a panacea. Best of all, it's incredibly easy to operate.

"The other piece of software is a word processing system. As you all know, word processors are selling very well these days. William White squeezed his eyes and said.

"But there are a lot of problems with word processors. And to be honest, it's definitely not cheap either. ”

"William, excuse me, you're a good thing, but it's obviously not a substitute for a word processor. ”

"Haha, I see what you mean, you mean there's no output function?"

"Yes, those consumables are expensive. But they do print it. ”

"Haha, Jobs, we actually solved the problem. ”

"Are you sure?"

"Yes, I'm pretty sure, I took advantage of your expansion card slots. Although this solution is still very expensive. But it's not too much of a problem. Not every computer needs to be printed. A small company only needs one. Medium-sized companies may have two or three units. ”

"Tom, go get an Epson printer. ”

"Okay, boss,"

In fact, the people at Apple have noticed the expansion card for a long time. They just don't understand what it does.

Now it's clear that everything here is very good. It's basically tailor-made. The god Qiao is actually slandering. Such a good thing. Why didn't it come from a small company? It would be nice to be a small company. Before they have developed it, it would be good to buy them directly.

It's impossible now, people are clearly not bad for money. Forget about the acquisition, listen to the meaning of other people's words, and are also very optimistic about Apple, and do not rule out the acquisition of some shares.

"William, your stuff is good, but I don't know what the price is, and what can we get?"

William White knew that the main topic was coming, and it was useless to say it well, if the price was too expensive, this thing would not sell.

"Makura, you don't have to worry about the price, the user price of the spreadsheet is $99, and the price of the word processing software is $49. You can also buy a set for $139. ”

"As for Apple's profits, I think you can get them at a 70% discount. It is also possible to tie it in. We can provide an OEM version of the software for only $129. ”

To be honest, the price is very low. If there aren't enough users, Wright's profits are at stake.

It is precisely because of this price that Apple sees their ambitions. In the eyes of Apple's top management, no more than 200 US dollars per piece of software is enough. This thing doesn't have to worry about selling at all. There are also no competitors in the market. There is only one reason why it is so cheap, people want to monopolize this market.

Several of Apple's top executives are very entangled. It's unrealistic to want to dominate this software. People refused without even thinking about it. The only way to do that is to speed up your own publicity. They have a first-mover advantage after all. If that doesn't work, there's really nothing to complain about.

On the surface, this group of Apple guys is very calm. But when they returned to their company, the group quickly became excited.

There is no doubt that White Software has opened a window. Their success will also spur other companies. Programming isn't a problem at all, creativity is the key.

This period of time is undoubtedly a window period. William White bluntly said that other personal PCs are more like a game console, and if it weren't for Apple's second-generation machine, he wouldn't have made this software.

But that's all Apple's strengths for, if they don't speed things up. Other competitors will soon catch up. At that time, it may be a price war.

The young Apple moved very quickly. They quickly finalized the details of the contract.

But the speed of the White software seems to be faster. They delivered the product right away. The speed is a miracle. Except for the OEM version, there is no way to provide it in time. Everything else was in place.

"Oh my God, Jobs, this thing isn't going to be done right now. They have already done it. ”

"yes! That's a madman. There is so much stock. What if we don't sell it for him?"

"Will you? ”

"No, it won't. ”

"He's not crazy, he's sure we can't refuse. If we really refuse, those competitors will die of laughter. ”

"Alas, it's a pity that it can't be controlled within our system. ”

"He's not going to agree, they're right, we've got about six months. Those opponents will definitely catch up. ”

The company's business development is so smooth, the company's employees are naturally very happy. Of course, the most excited is indeed Fauber. Looking at the current posture, this so-called software can really change money.

Seven folds?

The three folds may be crazy, and the rise of the family is just around the corner.
