Chapter 868 - The Best Software Company
Led by a blonde girl, Rebus walked into the legendary Fei Chief's office with a bit of restraint.
The office was too big for Rebus to look at.
This......
It's almost half a floor!
His office at the headquarters of Jinshan Capital is only a dozen square meters, while in Yuehai Xishanju it is even more simple, working in one hall with employees.
The soft and thick wool carpet on the floor made him feel deep and shallow when he walked.
Hey, I still miss the cement floor of Xishanju, at least walk steadily!
Seeing Pei'er walk in with a tall man in his early thirties, Yu Wenfei knew that this should be Rebus.
He stood up with a smile.
"Mr. Fei, this is Mr. Lei. ”
Pei'er brought the person to Yu Wenfei and introduced.
"Hello Mr. Fei, I'm Rebus, I've admired my name for a long time, and I'm finally able to see you this time. ”
Rebus hurriedly stepped forward and said with a smile on his face.
"Mr. Lei, please sit down. Yu Wenfei stretched out his hand and signaled.
The two sat down on the couch, and Pell brought two cups of coffee.
............
"I heard that Facebook Games acquired Xishanju, and you want to meet me?" Yu Wenfei was the first to speak.
A smile appeared on Rebus's face, and he leaned forward slightly, "Yes, this time I came to see Mr. Fei, in fact, I asked the chairman to ask Mr. Fei a question, that is, what do you think of Kingsoft software." ”
Perhaps because he was afraid that Yu Wenfei had not heard of Kingsoft this company, Rebus also quickly explained: "Kingsoft is the parent company of Xishanju, mainly doing word processing software, and now we are developing a software called WPS, which is a set of word processing software with similar functions as Microsoft's OFFICE software." ”
Yu Wenfei waved his hand lightly and smiled: "I know Jinshan." In my eyes, Kingsoft is one of the best software companies in China, not even one of them!"
Rebus was stunned, because Yuwenfei's evaluation was too high!
"There is no one of the best software companies. This sentence, even Rebus himself, probably wouldn't dare to blow it like this.
However, when he looked at Yu Wenfei's face, it didn't seem like he was joking, but a very serious expression.
"Huh? Mr. Fei...... Do you really think so?" Rebus asked in disbelief.
"Yes! Dare to face the rising Microsoft directly and confront such a giant in word processing software. Not to mention the result, just this courage and courage, Kingsoft is already a first-class software company. Yu Wenfei praised.
He really appreciates Jinshan.
Because in his eyes, Kingsoft is one of the few software companies in China that is really willing to bend down to do research and development, serious and multi-product.
Moreover, Kingsoft's word processing software, if it can be successful, is really significant!
Originally, he wanted Facebook Games to buy Xishanju, so that Jinshan could get a lot of money and focus on their word processing software.
Unexpectedly, Rebus came to the door, looking at it like this, things shouldn't be so simple.
"Thank you for Mr. Fei's recognition! Shame, we Kingsoft have been committed to developing domestic word processing software to compete with giants like Microsoft. The ideal is good, but the result is ...... Hey!" Rebus said, a little ashamed.
"It's not entirely your fault, the market environment is not good. And your company's strength is still too weak, and there are not enough talents to support it. The software industry is completely intellectually intensive, and without enough elite programmers, it is impossible to make top-notch software. Yu Wenfei comforted him.
It is true that Kingsoft is not a big company, and naturally it cannot offer the top salary in the industry.
As a result, they can't recruit top-notch software talent.
Without top talent, how can you compete with a world-class giant like Microsoft?
You know, Microsoft's talent team is the largest in the IT industry!
An operating system is often a collective collaboration of branches in more than a dozen countries, and there are tens of thousands of full-time programmers alone!
Moreover, if you can get into working at Microsoft, you can imagine the level.
If Jinshan can catch up with the 100th employee, it will be unfair.
Of course, Kingsoft is not doing something as complicated as an operating system, but a word processing software that is benchmarked against OFFICE software.
But even then, they still don't have enough people.
In the end, it's still one word, poor!
......... (Anti-theft) .........
After a few words, Rebus turned to the point.
He straightened his back and said seriously: "Regarding Facebook Games' acquisition of Xishanju, to be honest, I didn't agree with it at first. Because in my opinion, Xishanju still has a lot of potential to be tapped. This game studio has a glorious past, and of course, at its most brilliant, it didn't make much money. ”
Speaking of this, he smiled a little embarrassedly.
Yu Wenfei nodded slightly, indicating understanding.
At that time, it was the time when piracy was most rampant in China, and the stand-alone game of Swordsman Romance could sell 200,000 copies, which was already a very staggering number!
Seriously, if the genuine version sells 200,000 copies, then the pirated version sells at least 10 million copies!
The ratio of genuine to pirated copies is 1:50.
At that time, the situation was so cruel.
This is still because the reputation of the swordsman love is very good, and many players are willing to support it, so they went to the genuine sales data of 200,000.
Those games whose reputation has not reached the height of swordsman romance can be imagined.
It may be that the pirated copy sells for 100 copies, but the original copy has not been sold yet.
I have to say that piracy is the biggest culprit that ruined the domestic game industry!
Rebus continued: "Moreover, Kingsoft Software, although it is mainly engaged in word processing software, may also launch an antivirus software project called Kingsoft Poison Tyrant, which has already been established.
However, the biggest source of profit is still Xishanju.
In recent years, online games have been all the rage, and online games cannot be pirated, so it is natural for game companies to switch from stand-alone machines to online games.
We are also doing it in Xishanju, and we are operating it now...... Reasonable.
Xishanju's revenue can be said to support the operation of the entire Kingsoft software. ”
Having said all this, what he means is that Xishanju is a very important part of Kingsoft Software.
If Xishanju is sold alone, then Kingsoft Software will also exist in name only.
Yu Wenfei smiled, didn't go around in circles with him, and asked dryly: "What if it's an overall acquisition?
