Chapter 1528: Messing with someone who should never be messed with
The Goldberg family's banquet of hundreds of people seems to be forceful and lofty, but it is actually not interesting.
The social etiquette of the Western aristocracy is basically a set of things that make people feel depressed, the scene is grand, but the atmosphere is not warm, the main thing is that everyone basically only talks to the people next to each other on the left and right, if there is a person in between, try to avoid talking, because it will be impolite.
Li Mu didn't talk to Bill Gates again throughout the meal until the banquet hall was about to end.
Davidson, as the host, was about to make a final toast, and then at the end of the dinner, a panicked middle-aged white man entered the banquet hall with a cat, and when he came, he hunched over and ran all the way to the middle of the two rows of seats.
The appearance of this person was particularly abrupt, and many people involuntarily focused their eyes on this uninvited guest, and he ran to Bill Gates with the eyes of the audience, covered his mouth with his hand, and whispered in his ear for a moment.
Li Mu sat opposite Bill Gates, and clearly saw that Bill Gates's expression was a little angry at the man's sudden appearance at first, but after listening to him say a few words, his expression immediately became solemn, and he subconsciously looked at Li Mu, with anger in his eyes that could not be hidden.
Bill Gates was indeed very annoyed in his heart, knowing that his MSN ecology was about to be released, Li Mu urgently called on the top 100 singers in YYtunes to make a big news.
In the Internet industry, the effective display of information in the whole industry every day is limited, even if there are one billion netizens and the average person will browse ten news items on the Internet every day, then the effective display of information in the world every day is only 10 billion times, and a real super hot news may be able to take more than half of the 10 billion times.
Any PR and PR team will be weak when they encounter such a super hot spot, because it is as if the other side has sucked most of the oxygen out of the air in one go, which means that no matter how much money they invest, it will not have the desired effect.
Netizens are like tourists wandering around the market, Microsoft and Makino Technology are both merchants who set up stalls in the bazaar, if Makino Technology makes some gimmicks to attract most of the people in the market to their stalls, Microsoft's potential audience will naturally be much less; if Makino Technology's gimmick is a little bigger, Microsoft will naturally have no one to watch.
Makino technology itself occupies a huge user flow, and the ability to deliver information is outstanding, if you add the joint force formed by 100 popular singers, it is basically certain that it is impossible to form a second hot news today.
This also means that MSN, which has been reborn from the ashes, will be cold before it is released!
After Bill Gates' assistant introduced the situation, he anxiously asked him: "Chairman, the project team wants to ask you, are we releasing it as usual or delaying it temporarily?"
"Delayed?" Bill Gates said with a cold face: "The official website has released a trailer, and the media has also greeted in advance, how can we explain to the public at this time?"
If Microsoft chooses to postpone the release at this time, it will almost be tantamount to announcing to the whole society that it is delaying it in order to avoid the edge of Makino Technology, which will have a great impact on Microsoft's reputation and Bill Gates's reputation.
However, this wave of Makino Technology is too ferocious, what does it mean that the top 100 singers in the entire YYtunes Europe and the United States mean?
This means that the 100 most popular singers in Europe and the United States will stand for Makino Technology!
Such a top singer, one can support a large-scale commercial event, three can support a super high-rated TV show, and there are a hundred, which can simply attract everyone's attention!
As far as Makino Technology is concerned, unless there is another terrorist attack of the scale of 911 today, no one can steal the global headlines of Makino Technology, in this case, if Microsoft wants to force MSN, it is really an egg against a stone, and it will definitely pay a tragic price.
At this time, Li Mu on the other side vaguely heard the content of what Bill Gates said just now, he smiled slightly, and said to Bill Gates: "Mr. Gates, don't have too much pressure, if you feel that it is not suitable to publish today, you can take a break for the time being." ”
Bill Gates knew that Li Mu was mocking and using the agitation method, although he couldn't hold it on his face and was very angry in his heart, but he didn't dare to follow his way, otherwise if he drove the duck to the shelf, he would regret that he wouldn't have taken the medicine.
So, Bill Gates pretended to smile calmly: "What Mr. Li said makes sense, if we are not ready today, then it is okay to postpone it for a day or two." ”
In a word, I have completely admitted it.
What Bill Gates thought in his heart was that he would simply postpone the release of MSN today, give way to Li Mu, let Li Mu launch his product first, and then see if this product will have a direct impact on Microsoft's new MSN ecosystem, if there is a direct impact, MSN can also be urgently rebuilt; if there is no direct impact, then wait for Li Mu's release today to drop in popularity, and then launch MSN.
Even Wendy Gober heard Bill Gates' weakness, and couldn't help but look at Bill Gates, and then at Li Mu, and was amazed in his heart.
Although everyone is very gentlemanly and polite, and rarely crosses seats to talk to other people, many people around are paying attention to the conversation between Li Mu and Bill Gates, and it can be seen that Bill Gates is not only Wendy Gauber who shows weakness to Li Mu, but everyone else around him also hears it clearly, and they are also horrified in their hearts.
Li Mu looked at Bill Gates with an ugly expression at this time, smiled slightly, and said, "It doesn't matter Mr. Gates, no matter how long you postpone it, I will wait for you." ”
"You ......"
Li Mu's words were like a thunderbolt struck Bill Gates's heavenly spirit cover.
Bill Gates stared at the smiling Oriental man in front of him, and was so angry that he wanted to fight with him!
What does that mean? Wait for yourself no matter how long you push? Isn't this a threat that can't be more straightforward?
Does that mean staring at himself? If he delays the release today, then he will also postpone and wait for himself? Death or life is staring at himself, is there anyone more fucked up than this?
Bill Gates finally realized that he provoked a guy he definitely shouldn't mess with today!
Knowing this, why did he provoke Li Mu at the beginning? It is better not to say anything and wait for MSN to be released smoothly.
Just because he couldn't bear the loneliness, he revealed his intentions to Li Mu in advance, but he didn't expect Li Mu to bite himself to death and not let go.
But now it's too late to regret it, Li Mu has mobilized so many stars in a very short period of time, if he postpones it and he postpones it, wouldn't it give him more time to prepare? Maybe tomorrow, the top 500 singers in YYtunes will stand for him, and then MSN's situation will be even more precarious.
So, in this way, MSN must not delay the release!
Bill Gates whispered to his assistant: "Reply to them immediately, release as usual, no extension!"
The assistant also understood at this time, although Vice President Pete called and instructed him to try his best to persuade Bill Gates to agree to the extension, but Li Mu was already eyeing Microsoft, and the extension did not play any positive role, but gave the other party a longer time to fully prepare.
The assistant turned around and quickly left the banquet hall, and Bill Gates looked at Li Mu, his expression was ugly and ugly.
At this time, Davidson got up with his wine glass, toasted the dinner for the last time, everyone got up, and after Davidson finished saying his words of thanks, they toasted together, and the dinner officially ended.
The guests left their seats and stood in groups chatting on both sides of the ballroom, the jazz band played music again, and the waiters came out at once, some of them cleaning all the dishes as quickly as they could, others removing most of the tables and chairs, and leaving a few of them around.
As is customary, it's dance time next, where guests are free to dance, chat and drink.
Bill Gates is gone, he should be busy directing MSN online, Li Mu and Wendy Gobber just got up, Davidson came to the two of them, and said to Li Mu: "Mr. Li, our salon will be on the second floor in half an hour, and there may be many guests who want to say hello to you later, if you don't want to waste energy, you can ask Wendy to take you upstairs first." ”
Before Li Mu could answer, a familiar face appeared in front of him.
is Prince William, who is about the same age as Li Mu.
Prince William could see that he was a little nervous, and sorted out his collar and tie a few times before he came to Li Mu and said, "Hello Mr. Li, it's a great honor to be able to meet you here, I'm William Arthur Philips Louis, you can call me William." ”
Li Mu smiled slightly, shook hands with him, and said, "Hello, Prince William, it's an honor to meet you." ”
Prince William put one hand on his left chest, and said very seriously: "I have always been a loyal user of Makino Technology, and I am also a full supporter of 3321. ”
Li Mu said with a smile: "Prince William has won the award, and I am just an entrepreneur in the Internet industry." ”
Prince William said: "Mr. Li can call me William, and if you can, we can add each other a YY friend, I have a lot of things I want to ask you about." ”
Li Mu nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, I'll ask my assistant to write down my personal YY number for you later." ”
Saying that, Li Mu asked with a mocking face: "William, are you the first person in the British royal family to use YY?"
"It's not ......" Prince William spread his hand and said with a smile: "The first person in the royal family to use YY was my younger brother Harry, I was taken by him to register YY, and played a game called "Paradise Town" with him, and then gradually became a loyal user of YY. ”
"I see!" Li Mu nodded with a smile, then looked at William and asked him: "By the way, William, are you interested in becoming the first person to use a Titter in the British and even the world's royal family?"
