Chapter 1374: Hidden Dangers
The reason why Yin Jun chose to open the World Wide Web for free is definitely not because he has great feelings, like Tim, to contribute to all mankind.
Even if he wants to do good deeds, Yin Jun will only do it for the Chinese people.
The gang of people in Europe and the United States, including Japan, owe too much to China.
Earning their money to help his country get out of poverty and rise again like the Han and Tang dynasties is Yin Jun's biggest dream.
But Yin Jun couldn't do that.
At least when it comes to the World Wide Web, Yin Jun can't.
It's not that Tim is missing, Yin Jun can't do well.
In fact, Yin Jun can apply for a theoretical patent and then hire an expert to do it himself.
Electronics experts at MIT and Harvard University will be happy to link and share the hypertext protocol as long as they give enough money and honor.
That is, the World Wide Web.
Yin Jun thinks about it the most, or to make the big computer industry this plate.
It's a clear difference between making money in a pool with a capacity of $100 billion or making money in a pool with a capacity of tens of trillions of dollars.
Idiots know what to choose.
And after making the market bigger, Yin Jun did not lose the opportunity.
He's from 40 years later!
Which company can develop well, which company has any twists and turns in the middle, and what direction should the future electronics industry develop after PC computers...... These future trajectories are all in Yin Jun's mind, and he has never forgotten them at all.
Therefore, if the pool is as big as in his previous life, or even bigger, Yin Jun will not lose anything, but will earn more in it.
Since he can earn more, Yin Jun can't look down on the current profits of tens of billions or even hundreds of billions.
Let's take a more concrete example.
As long as he grasps the four companies of Apple, Google, Death, and Amazon, he can at least make trillions of dollars, how cool should this be?
For the sake of better interests and prospects in the future, Yin Jun is willing.
He was willing to give up.
Bill Gates didn't know, and he couldn't bear it.
It's a pity that the patents for the World Wide Web are in Yin Jun's hands, and he can only be in a hurry, and there is nothing he can do.
"Bill, what we need to think about now is to make the whole pie bigger, not the immediate benefits. Yin Jun was reluctant to say more to him, "At least Microsoft is the first to know, so we can start developing our own browsers and make a perfect ecosystem." ”
"Ecosystem? Isn't this Apple's way?" asked Bill Gates, "we're a free software platform, what do we want this for?"
"In this world, we are not the only operating system like IN2.0, if we don't work hard to move forward, so that everyone is used to our system, can not do without our system, why become the world's first?" Yin Jun said, "Others are developing software, and we at Microsoft also need to develop it! If the graphics page is full of programs developed by others, do you have the face?"
"Well, that's right. Bill Gates nodded, "I originally thought that getting the operating system done well first is the first element, and it seems that those auxiliary things are also essential! For example, the World Wide Web-based browser you mentioned, if it is done well, it is an excellent sticky tool, which can make many users accept our INDOS system." ”
Yin Jun is also the first to say, "With the World Wide Web patent, I believe it will be made soon, and it can be used as a key point to promote when it comes to promotion." ”
"I understand. ”
Bill Gates looked a little excited.
In his heart, he probably thought about how many orders he would get.
Speaking of which, the price of Microsoft's INDOS system is actually just a Windows operating system.
Microsoft has a lot of other products that have to be charged.
For example, the famous "ORD", which is a document, is purchased separately so that you can use it.
Only this most widely used Internet Explorer browser, Microsoft does not charge for it.
The reason is that Tim is asking not to use his patents to make money, and the World Wide Web itself is absolutely not allowed to be charged.
The LINUX system after Linus is free of charge, and it is the practice of referring to his own idols.
Therefore, Android must not be charged.
But smart companies don't get frustrated by that.
Microsoft's IE will not be charged, but it can only be installed with Microsoft's INDOS.
IE promoted the development of INDOS, and INDOS in turn made everyone accustomed to using IE, which quickly defeated Netscape companies that simply relied on a browser to live.
You know, when Netscape had the highest market capitalization, it exceeded $17 billion!
It's only one browser.
Microsoft's market value can be so high, IE's contribution is also not small, although it is free, but its value is reflected in the market value of the entire Microsoft company.
IE in the previous life didn't come out so early, it was only developed in the mid-90s.
At that time, Netscape was in full swing, occupying 90% of the market.
But the problem is that Netscape Browser does not have its own ecological chain support, so Microsoft has added IE browser to its own INDOS.
Since then, the IE browser installed by default has become the first choice for all INDOS system users.
Netscape declined rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, and finally withdrew from the market in less than ten years.
The same goes for Google's Android.
ANDROID IS NOT THE ONLY MOBILE PHONE SYSTEM DEVELOPED BASED ON LINUX, BUT IN THE END, ANDROID DEFEATED ALMOST ALL OPPONENTS AND BECAME THE WELL-DESERVED KING OF THE MOBILE PHONE SYSTEM FIELD.
Except for Apple's IOS system, which can still occupy about 20% of the market share, the rest of the people are Android users.
The reason for this lies in Google's strong product promotion capabilities and strong R&D capabilities.
At the beginning, the Android system was still not used by any company.
But they kept R&D and kept upgrading, so more and more companies used it, and finally created a miracle.
By the time of the 8th generation of Android, in fact, many of their functions and efficiency are not much worse than Apple's IOS, and after a few generations of development, they may completely surpass Apple.
It's like the original INDOS system defeated Apple's system.
If Apple doesn't change and progress more, their prospects are really not good.
Open and closed, two product models and concepts, starting from 2020, at most in a few years, you can see the difference again.
According to Yin Jun's age, he can also see this day.
Retracted his thoughts.
The young man said to Bill Gates in a calm voice, "Bill, have you considered a question? What kind of relationship will we have with IBM in the future?"
"What kind of relationship?" said Bill Gates, surprised, "What a good partnership! They have hardware, we have software, complement each other, it's very strong!"
"But will our Windows system only be used on IBM?"
"Of course not! All computers work!"
"IBM wants to control other computer companies through us, for example, what software they need, we have to develop it. What are the ones they don't need, but the competitors want, and they stop us from developing them...... Can you agree to such a request?"
"Of course not!"
Bill Gates vetoed it twice in a row, and then he understood what Yin Jun meant.
According to this development trajectory, it is only a matter of time before Microsoft and IBM fall out!
Historically, IBM used the above requirements when it discovered that Microsoft had the idea of setting up its own portal.
But Bill Gates withstood the strong pressure and refused directly.
At the same time, well-known computer giants such as HP and Compaq were also rejected.
They were going to join forces to ban Bill Gates, but Bill Gates had great luck.
It was at this time that Microsoft met Dell Computer, which was growing rapidly.
Dell computers are relatively unfamiliar to many Chinese people, but if you talk about a domestic computer company that is exactly like them, you will immediately understand.
This domestic company is called Lenovo.
Dell and Lenovo are almost identical companies.
To put it simply, their main business is to buy all kinds of hardware on the market, assemble it into a computer by themselves, and then put up their own brand and sell it.
All the parts, including the operating system, are not their own, and they are completely no different from the small assembly machine vendors in the computer city more than ten years ago, except that they are the largest.
Dell doesn't have any hardware interests, so not only do they not have any conflict with Microsoft, but they also become the closest partners because Microsoft has to provide them with the INDOS system before they can sell it to individual users.
The speed and efficiency of Dell's sales of computers are much more powerful than those of giants such as IBM and Apple.
Not only did they grow at an astonishing rate in the United States, but they also quickly expanded their business to Europe.
It is with the help of Dell that Microsoft quickly overcame the difficulties and established its unique hegemony in the operating system industry.
Then, Japanese brands such as Sony, NEC, and Sharp, and South Korea's Samsung began to use Microsoft's INDOS system, which further expanded Microsoft's empire.
Of course, this is the previous life.
In the previous life, Microsoft was purely a passive choice.
At first, Bill Gates never thought that he would be able to break away from IBM and achieve great things.
What he wants is to rely on the big tree of IBM to make good money.
It was also the ruthlessness and persecution of IBM and other companies that forced him to find a way everywhere, and finally fought his way out.
This life is different.
Before the conflict began, Yin Jun reminded Bill Gates, telling him to be prepared and plan in advance.
The active choice is too much leeway compared to the passive one!
