312【PHS Press Conference】
When Microsoft first entered China, it proposed to acquire Kingsoft. In 1995, he sent an invitation letter to Qiu Bojun with an annual salary of 750,000 US dollars.
In 1995, China, with an annual salary of 750,000 US dollars.
These keywords are quite scary together, which is enough to see that Microsoft attaches great importance to Qiu Bojun. Of course, it only attaches importance to Qiu Bojun's technology, and Microsoft has never taken Kingsoft in its eyes.
Before Bill Gates left China this time, someone from Microsoft came to the door and offered to buy 60% of Kingsoft's shares for $3 million.
Qiu Bojun refused on the spot, and he didn't call Song Weiyang and Zhang Xuanlong to discuss.
The outcome of Microsoft's acquisition of Kingsoft can be imagined, PS has been hidden since then, and all programmers have become Microsoft's code farmers, which is unacceptable to Qiu Bojun.
However, the domestic media has hyped it vigorously, and one by one they are complacent, and regard Microsoft's acquisition of Kingsoft as a great thing to promote our country's prestige - you see, Bill Gates has thrown an olive branch, which shows that China's software companies are very powerful!
Lei Jun immediately held a press conference, saying that Kingsoft would never accept foreign investment, and Kingsoft would carry the banner of China's general software.
Domestic computer magazines applauded one after another, caught Kingsoft Company frantically touted, and even with PS97 sold another wave of genuine prints. In addition, the military cooperated with Kingsoft in advance to jointly develop the military version of PS97, and Lei Jun immediately promoted the government version of the PS project.
The civilian version did not sell, and the enterprise version also sold poorly, so it could only be purchased by the government and the military.
In fact, PS97 has occupied more than 70% of the Chinese market at this time, but it can't make a lot of money, and there are pirated users everywhere.
As for Microsoft, it is also very nonsense, knowing that the Chinese version of ord has huge vulnerabilities, and often needs to switch the DOS system to print normally. As a result, Microsoft's first reaction was to engage in promotions, not only to reduce the price of sales, but also to give gifts, and then genuine users still didn't buy it, and they switched to the arms of PS.
Microsoft will have to wait until the summer of 1998 to fix the ORD Chinese version of the vulnerability.
This shows Microsoft's contempt for the Chinese market, and that small bug can be solved in a few weeks by just two senior programmers, which can be delayed for several years.
At the same time, Song Weiyang's investment in Jinshan Company has also spread from the small circle of the Internet to the real society. Most people don't know what Jinshan is, only the chairman of Xifeng Company has begun to enter the high-tech industry.
The summit dialogue between Song Weiyang and Bill Gates has also been hyped up by the Chinese media, and there is even an article titled "The Exchange between Chinese Youth and the World".
Does Bill Gates represent the world?
There are also some media that focus on Bill Gates's rich second-generation identity, and analyze whether Bill Gates can become the richest man in the world without the help of his mother.
and the female reporter of the Associated Press has also become a background board, and some newspapers believe in analyzing her several difficulties, and praise Song Weiyang for her witty response.
I have to say that "Reader" likes this kind of story very much, and recreates it with oil and vinegar.
For example—
American female reporter: "Mr. Song, do you think the number of Chinese who can afford computers can exceed 10,000?"
Song Weiyang asked rhetorically: "The number of Internet users in China has exceeded 300,000, if they can't afford to buy a computer, are they using qigong to connect their brainwaves?"
Because Americans do not understand Chinese humor, they actually believe it to be true, so the American media exclaimed: Chinese qigong can be connected to the Internet, and the superpower of the Chinese is invincible!
With such an outrageous chicken soup article, many students and ordinary citizens actually believed it, thinking that everything contained in "The Reader" was true.
Just as the author of "The Birds and the Fish" is Tagore, and the author of "Seeing and Not Seeing" is Cangyang Gyatso, they are all big lies made up by "The Reader". Even in the era of smart phones, there are countless Chinese people who believe it to be true, and they also forward it to various circle of friends.
Song Weiyang was happy to see this, the higher the attention, the better, and he took the opportunity to hold a press conference in the capital.
……
This is the first time that Song Weiyang has attended a press conference in person, and the major media are very face-saving, and nearly 100 people came in one go.
Guo Xiaochun also rushed to the capital from Hong Kong City, and said quite nervously: "Yangyang, what should I say? What if I say the wrong thing?"
"Uncle, you can rest assured," Song Weiyang took out a piece of paper and said, "Just memorize it." ”
Guo Xiaochun is the legal representative of Taurus Capital, although it is a mascot, but there will definitely be many opportunities to stand in the front desk in the future.
On the day of the press conference, the venue was very lively.
A bunch of reporters waited eagerly, and finally waited for Song Weiyang to appear, and they thought that Song Weiyang and Bill Gates had some cooperation. As a result, I got the information on the spot, and the content was: Taurus Capital invested in Shenzhou Technology, and PHS business will be officially launched on October 1.
What the hell is Taurus Capital? No one knows except financial media reporters.
What are Shenzhou Technology and PHS?
Song Weiyang took the microphone and auditioned, smiled and said, "I won't talk nonsense, go straight to the point." Thank you reporters and friends for appreciating your face, let's talk about PHS first, which is the Chinese popular name of PHS technology, a mobile communication technology grafted on the fixed-line network. DCT has entered into a partnership with the telecom sector to fully develop PHS services in China. Shenzhou Technology Company, I personally invested 10 million yuan, and Taurus Capital injected 20 million yuan this time, which is a strong high-tech company......"
On the roof of the building where the press conference was held, PHS antennas were temporarily installed.
After Song Weiyang's introduction, he asked Miss Manners to show the new mobile phone, and the photographers took pictures of the past.
It's so pretty, it's smaller than the big brother's broken bricks, and it's more beautiful than Motorola and Ericsson phones — it's boxy, and it looks silly.
Song Weiyang said: "PHS mobile phones are temporarily available in three colors, classic black, festive red, and sapphire blue. As you can see, our mobile phone shape is very artistic, streamlined, and belongs to the supercar in the mobile phone. Which reporter on the scene wants to try, please raise your hand. ”
Brush up a large piece.
Song Weiyang picked a beautiful reporter who was more pleasing to the eye, and the other party directly chose the red PHS, and quickly dialed the number: "Hey, Mom." Well, it's me...... It's okay, I just miss you, let's talk a few words...... Well, the phone bill is quite expensive, so I hung up first. ”
Song Weiyang smiled: "How's the signal?"
"Very good," said the female reporter, "the voice is also clear, and the quality of the call is very high." ”
Can the call quality not be high? The signal antenna is installed on the roof of the building, and it will be dismantled at the end of the press conference.
Song Weiyang said: "Okay, let's ask questions freely, and ask any questions." ”
A financial reporter first asked: "Mr. Song, I remember that at the beginning of the year, Taurus Capital held up a sign in Hong Kong City. Can you tell us more?"
Song Weiyang said with a smile: "This is Mr. Guo Xiaochun, the legal representative of Taurus Capital, and he will answer." ”
Guo Xiaochun immediately said: "The strength of Taurus Capital is still very strong, we are an investment company, the current corporate shareholders are Citibank (China), New Hope Group, Oriental Hope Group, Shenghai Textile Group, BBK Company, Fosun Company, Xifeng Company, Xianjiu Group, Geely Company and Sitong Group Gangcheng Branch, individual shareholders are Mr. Song Weiyang, Mr. Zheng Xuehong, Miss Chen Tao, and of course, myself." ”
The scene was in an uproar.
In addition to the Textile Group, Fosun and Geely, the shareholders of other companies are all famous, and Citibank is also involved.
How strong is the strength of Taurus Capital!
In fact, it was precisely because of the smooth sailing of Taurus Capital in Southeast Asia and the fact that Soros made a lot of money that Citibank (China) injected $3 million. Because it can't be hidden, the custodian manager of Taurus Capital is an employee of Citibank.
As for the other franchised enterprises, the amount of investment is not large, and Song Weiyang still holds more than 80% of the shares.
Guo Xiaochun said with a smile: "If some entrepreneurs are interested, they can also join Taurus Capital, and everyone will invest and make money together in the future." Taurus Capital not only invested 20 million yuan in Shenzhou Technology, but also recently invested 5 million yuan in Sohu.com, and Wall Street's valuation of Sohu has exceeded 5 million US dollars!"
Song Weiyang suddenly said: "Next, this friend with glasses, please ask questions." ”
The reporter immediately got up and said, "Mr. Song, is PHS a mobile phone produced independently by China?"
Song Weiyang said: "Regarding PHS mobile phones, Shenzhou Technology Company has applied for a design patent. But unfortunately, the main patented technology is all foreign, and we only assemble it on an OEM basis. However, PHS is indeed the first Chinese mobile phone brand! This is the first step taken by Chinese in the field of mobile communications. And we have established a research and development center, specializing in mobile phone motherboards and chips, the first year of scientific research investment is 10 million yuan, by the Chinese Academy of Sciences academician Ni as technical guidance! I believe that one day, Chinese can build their own mobile phones!"
"Good!"
Guo Xiaochun immediately clapped his hands and said to the reporters in the audience: "What are you doing in a daze?
"Bang bang bang!"
The journalists finally applauded.
Another reporter asked: "PHS is a telecommunications business, what is the difference between phone bills and mobile?"
Song Weiyang smiled: "2 cents, only 2 cents per minute!"
"Wow!"
The whole audience became noisy again, such a low tariff, the communication market is going to change.
At the very least, the reporters on the scene want to switch to PHS.
