"Zheng Yan, get up quickly. ”

After yesterday's venting, Zheng Yan, who felt refreshed, wanted to sleep well, but unexpectedly, Zheng Ruoxue didn't come to disturb, but Li Yanran rushed into his room.

"Didn't you say it yesterday, no matter if there is anything wrong, don't bother me, where are you singing?" Zheng Yan asked in a daze.

"I don't want to bother you, but I can't help it, Larry is here. As for whether you want to get up or not, you can decide for yourself, anyway, I sent the message. ”

As soon as Li Yanran finished speaking, she immediately left the room. Zheng Yan didn't have the heart to sleep when he heard this, and got up from the bed in a daze.

"Larry, Steve, why are you both here?"

Zheng Yan went downstairs to see that it was not only Larry Ellison, but also Jobs. Needless to say, the reason why the two of them came naturally didn't need to be said, Zheng Yan was moved, but also felt that there was a bit of a fuss.

"Because of your war letter, the entire financial world is going to explode, and the two of us, as your friends, of course have to care about it. In retrospect, our fears seem unfounded. Larry Ellison said with a smile.

After yesterday's report came out, Larry Ellison wanted to come to New York, but was persuaded by Jobs. But as soon as Zheng Yan's interview came out yesterday, Larry Ellison and Jobs couldn't sit still, and rushed to New York by plane early in the morning. But the two never thought that Zheng Yan was sleeping lazily.

"It's just a couple of clowns, what's there to worry about? But it's not bad, if they hadn't jumped out to find trouble, you two wouldn't have come to New York, but since you're here, stay here for a few days, and I'll show you a good show." ”

"Look at Larry, I said a long time ago, Zheng Yan must be completely sure, the two of us are purely in a hurry. ”

The longer he got along with Zheng Yan, the more Jobs felt that he couldn't see through him, although extraordinary people do extraordinary things, but they can't always do extraordinary things, right? But in any case, Jobs's confidence in Zheng Yan is getting stronger and stronger.

"Okay, since there's nothing wrong with you, let's talk about me. As you know, Microsoft and Bill Gates have always been my confidants

Suffering, you are investing in Microsoft but you are a capital enemy. Larry Ellison said with a deliberate look of inquiry.

Larry Ellison was just joking, Zheng Yan knew this very well, so he didn't care at all, and said with a smile: "Larry, you blame me for this." It's because I know this that I invested in Microsoft, and maybe I can help you find out Microsoft's secrets, so you don't know when you're calculated. ”

"Just because he wants to plot against me? What are you kidding? Bill Gates is just one of the more famous viruses, and although he is eating away at the whole of Silicon Valley, he should never try to take advantage of me. ”

Hearing Zheng Yan's words, Larry Ellison immediately became excited, but not for Zheng Yan, but because of Bill Gates.

"Okay Larry, Bill Gates and his Microsoft, sooner or later your men will be defeated, right? Zheng Yan, since you have put forward the bet, you must have been prepared for a long time, but have you ever thought that a month is too short. ”

"To put it mildly, Netscape is currently in the browser market, just like Microsoft's position in the operating system market, and has formed an industry monopoly, so Larry and I both think that your bet this time is a bit risky. ”

Trust is trust, and Jobs's worries are no less. Jobs had no doubt that Netscape would have no chance of winning if Microsoft and Netscape were to enter the browser market at the same time, but now that Netscape was in full swing, he couldn't think of any way to beat Netscape in a month.

"Actually, for now, this matter is still classified, but whoever made us friends doesn't hurt to tell you. However, you must keep it a secret for me, or I am afraid I will not be able to earn a billion dollars from KPCB. ”

"In fact, before Netscape went public, that is, after the last interview, in addition to Jim Clark and Mark Anderson, there was another person who came to me, and this person was Microsoft's Bill Gates, and I made an agreement with him..."

If Larry Ellison and Jobs just called to inquire about the situation, Zheng Yan would never tell the truth, but since the two came all the way over, Zheng Yan felt that if he did it again

concealed, a little too much, so I told myself and Bill Gates's plan.

"What? You mean that Bill Gates is ready to risk being sued by bundling the browser to the operating system? But how is this possible, Netscape and Microsoft are not in conflict, why would Bill Gates do this?"

"If the browser can bring huge benefits to Microsoft, it is barely a thing of the past, after all, his greed is well known. But what is the purpose of using it for free? Just to destroy Netscape? This reason is too far-fetched. ”

Hearing Zheng Yan's explanation, Larry Ellison finally understood the source of Zheng Yan's confidence. It's just that he began to doubt Bill Gates's intentions in doing this again, which is clearly harming others and not benefiting himself.

"Larry, you're wrong, if Microsoft doesn't destroy Netscape, it really doesn't seem like much now, but it won't be long before Bill Gates can't sleep. Jobs has been committed to the development of operating systems, and after hearing Zheng Yan's explanation, he somewhat understood.

"Because of the birth of the Internet, it has provided more possibilities for the development of computers, and Netscape browser is a good direction. If I'm not mistaken, Bill Gates worries not about the browser, but about the operating system. ”

"That's right, like Steve said, that's what Microsoft is worried about. If Jim Clark and Mark Anderson had this awareness, I wouldn't mind fighting Microsoft with them, but unfortunately they didn't think about it at all, so I had to give up on them. ”

Larry Ellison is not an ordinary person after all, after Zheng Yan and the others said this, he immediately figured it out. Just after thinking about it, Larry Ellison was even more excited.

"No, Zheng Yan, since you've thought of this for a long time, and you've been laying it out since a few months ago, why don't you tell us? Jim Clark and Mark Anderson may not want to compete with Microsoft, but we do. ”

"If the three of us join forces, with Oracle's market layout, plus Steve's technical support, and your terrifying financial strength, we can fight with Microsoft, and maybe we can break Microsoft's monopoly, but you gave up such a good opportunity. ”
