Schools, enterprises and various research institutions have an urgent need for networking, and the emergence of GalaxyNet1.0 network card just solves their needs. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoGalaxyNet1.0 has an unexpected stream of orders!

Although the rest of the LAN technology has appeared, it has not been made into a network card, and it is very difficult to promote.

After the computers of IBM, HP and DEC were installed with GalaxyNet 1.0 network cards, sales increased significantly. Because it costs $100 to buy a network card separately, many schools naturally prefer IBM, HP, and DEC's computers with their own network cards when purchasing new machines.

Apple, as a giant in the personal computer market, actually did not have a network card, which led to the loss of many users for a while.

The rest of the PC manufacturers have contacted Galaxy Networks to get their goods directly from the factory, ranging from $200 to $250, depending on the size of their company.

Apple is in a big crisis, and compatible machines led by IBM personal computers support GalaxyNet1.0 network cards, but Apple's personal computers do not, resulting in another sharp decline in sales.

Apple headquarters, conference room.

Thomas Rockefeller has been very irritable in the past two years, Apple in his hands, the performance is declining every day, losing money every year, there is money is this time, Apple's brain does not support GalaxyNet1.0 network card, which actually led to Apple's computer being unsalable!

Vincent Gaye, the current CEO of Apple, said to him: "Mr. Rockefeller, we have two solutions at the moment! First, modify the operating system to develop a personal computer that can support the Galaxy Net 1.0 network card, and second, let Galaxy Network develop a network card that can support Apple computers!"

Thomas Rockefeller nodded, then asked, "Which one do you think is better?"

"Mr. Rockefeller, use the two methods together. The computers that Apple has sold occupy a large part of the PC market, and Galaxy Network should not let go of this profit. Vincent Gay paused and said, "It's just that developing a network card for Apple computers alone will cost Galaxy Network some additional R&D funds and time." So, they have been hoping that Apple will be compatible with the GalaxyNet 1.0 network card. Today, Ethernet is becoming the LAN standard. I think Apple should still go with the trend and choose to cooperate with Galaxy Network!"

Thomas Rockefeller nodded helplessly, "Well, then do as you say!" Thomas felt that he was a failure at this time, as an excellent son of the Rockefeller family, he couldn't even compare to a self-made Chinese, and Apple couldn't leave him......

Thomas Rockefeller was a little discouraged, but he didn't give up.

He thought about it for a long time and felt that Apple should diversify, and personal computers were suppressed by IBM, so developing other products, with Apple's brand, would still get the support of many people.

At this time, Thomas put forward his long-prepared plan: "Vincent, Apple's product is too simple, and we must find a new profit point. Last year, the Sunbird Company made a lot of money selling consoles and game cartridges at Christmas. I think Apple can even develop personal computers, and naturally it can also develop game consoles!"

Vincent Gay may not be careful, but since the majority shareholder has decided so, so be it.

So, he nodded and said, "Well, this is also a good way, with Apple's R&D capabilities, it will definitely be able to develop a game console with more powerful performance than the Atari 2600!"

Thomas Rockefeller was recognized by the other party, and he was a little excited in his heart, as if the game console developed by Apple would definitely sell well, and countless orders were rolling in. In addition, he thought that the Flamingo company created by Li Zetian was developing game consoles, and when the time came, Apple's game consoles could snipe them. The glory of the Rockefeller family gave him a strong competitive spirit, and he must defeat his opponent, and his opponent was not IBM, but Li Zetian.

Apple has become a legend in the hands of Li Zetian, and in his hands, it has become a joke!

Thomas Rockefeller did not allow this to continue to happen, but alas, for now, it backfired, and Apple was declining......

If you are poor, you will think about change!

Thomas Rockefeller thought of diversification, and games were just one of them.

Then, he said: "With the increasing popularity of personal computers, Microsoft's word processing software and Excel spreadsheets, Wang An's word processing machines are becoming obsolete, and printers have become the first choice for corporate offices!

Vincent Gay nodded: "Indeed, as Mr. Rockefeller said, the printer market is very profitable! However, there are old printer giants such as HP, Epson, and Xerox, and there is great pressure on competition. ”

"How do you know that Apple's printers won't make money without trying?" Thomas Rockefeller frowned. At this moment, Thomas Rockefeller was already in a hurry to go to the doctor, and he wanted to try everything.

The printer commission is really very profitable, but this money is not for everyone.

When Li Zetian was in charge of Apple, he didn't dare to set foot in printers easily, because he didn't know about printers, in addition, the printer market was fiercely competitive, and the old printer giants were not so easy to deal with, and the technology and talent reserves could throw Apple a few streets. Instead of spending Apple's resources on developing printers, it would be better to do something else. Apple had developed printers in its previous life, but it didn't make much money, and after Jobs returned, he immediately cut it down.

At the end of the meeting, Thomas Rockefeller was full of ambition.

Vincent Gay immediately called Galaxy Networks and expressed his intention to cooperate. The Galaxy Network Company of course agreed to develop an Apple computer version of the GalaxyNet network card for Apple.

If you have money, you don't make money, you don't make it in vain!

In addition, Vincent Gay also said that Apple's new computers will definitely support the GalaxyNet 1.0 network card.

Galaxy Networks, Inc.

Zhang Yan laughed and said: "At the beginning, we wanted to cooperate with Apple several times, but the other party just didn't agree. Now it's okay, sales are declining, and I take the initiative to come to the door again, I really don't cry when I don't see the coffin!"

Tian Shuai smiled slightly and said, "Okay, no matter what, Apple still agreed to cooperate with us." ”

The corners of Zhang's mouth twitched, and he said: "Apple is getting worse and worse in Thomas's hands! In my opinion, Apple will go bankrupt sooner or later!"

Tian Shuai was stunned for a moment and nodded, "Maybe......"

Zhang Yan said excitedly: "If Apple is going bankrupt, do you think Mr. Li will buy it back?"

Hearing this, Tian Shuai pondered for a while, raised his head and said: "It should be possible, Apple still has many excellent employees, and they are a valuable asset!"

……

……

A few days later, Apple held a press conference announcing the development of a home console.

At the press conference, Thomas Rockefeller said to the camera with a smile on his face: "Apple will focus on developing powerful Apple home game consoles, and welcome third-party game software development companies to cooperate with Apple!"

The emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and Apple, although it has declined, is still the leader in the industry.

After the news that Apple was going to develop a game console, it caused a shock in the industry, and even Li Zetian was surprised.

"Apple thinks it's not dying fast enough, I have established Flamingo, and Apple still dares to enter the game industry!!" Li Zetian shook his head.

The Flamingo Company and Li Zetian have not yet made any statements.

Warner Bros. was the first to jump out, and the company's CEO said disdainfully in an interview with media reporters: "Sunbird's position in the game industry cannot be shaken! If Apple enters the field of game consoles, then its fate will definitely be very miserable! Any opponent of Sunbird will face an unprecedented defeat!"

Not long after, news broke that Warner Bros. had issued an ultimatum to third-party game developers that if they dared to develop games for other companies' consoles, they would not be allowed to land their games on the Atari 2600 platform.

Thomas Rockefeller waited for more than a week, thinking that many third-party game developers would come to Apple for cooperation, but only a few game companies turned out, and none of them were very good.

At this time, Thomas Rockefeller almost had the feeling that he would die before he could get out of school, and he didn't expect the water in the game industry to be so deep......

However, he looked back and it seemed that third-party game developers were threatened by Warner Bros., and not many companies dared to develop games for Flamingo. So thinking about it, Thomas's heart felt much better.

"Mr. Rockefeller, Flamingo develops its own games. As things stand, Apple will have to develop its own games......" Vincent Gay said with a hint of frustration.

Thomas nodded and said, "Well, let's develop the game yourself!"

"Yes, Mr. Rockefeller!" Vincent Gay replied with a nod.

What is the situation of Apple, Li Zetian is naturally very clear, and he can't help laughing: "Hehe, Atari 2600 dominates the market and forms a monopoly, Apple now knows that it is powerful, the game console market is not so easy to enter......"

PS: Mission accomplished, oh yes! Keep going tomorrow!
