Chapter 427: Microsoft who was forced to be helpless

Su Dingyu didn't laugh with him, but asked worriedly: "Will our sales of pirated copies reduce our sales in Europe, Southeast Asia, and Japan?"

Jiang Xinxu nodded and said, "This will definitely have an impact." But again, Microsoft has an impact. Just like in the United States, although we lost sales, we also advertised for our Firebird, and it was Microsoft that hurt the most. When our upgraded version comes out in the future, when our country joins the WTO, you say, how many people still remember Microsoft?"

For Jiang Xinwei to spare no effort and unscrupulous means to suppress Microsoft, even at the expense of his own interests, Su Dingyu still disagreed a little in his heart, and asked hesitantly: "Can ...... But in this way, although it can suppress Microsoft, our Zhonghua Software has lost a lot of revenue......"

Jiang Xinwei knows how dazzling Microsoft was in his previous life, and if he could suppress Microsoft in this life, it would be a good thing at that time. If he doesn't beat Microsoft, which has not yet fully grown, he will always have a thorn in his heart, and he will always be on guard against the rise of the other party. As long as he can suppress Microsoft, not to mention sacrificing part of the interests of Zhonghua Software Company, he is willing to clean up this company now.

In the previous days, Microsoft was in full swing, and Microsoft's boss Bill Gates has long dominated the list of the world's richest people and has been admired by countless Chinese people, which has greatly achieved the soft power of the United States and made many Chinese people more admiring foreigners. Many elementary school students like to quote Bill Gates, boasting about how Bill Gates gave up his studies and started from scratch, even though he was not self-made at all.

Seeing that Su Dingyu was not so resolute, he asked, "Old Su, are you still short of money in your life?...... Now we are following the path of Microsoft, and if we can keep this company down, our future will definitely be brilliant. ”

Su Dingyu didn't know how good Microsoft was in his previous life, and after listening to Jiang Xinwei's words, he didn't immediately have a sense of identity in his heart, but asked: "In case Microsoft develops a better operating system, what should we do? ”

Regarding Su Dingyu's worries, Jiang Xinwei felt that it was unlikely: after all, he was reborn, and he knew the path that Microsoft had taken in his previous life, as long as he occupied Microsoft's indos98, indos-xp or something, he didn't believe that Microsoft could still rise, but thinking of Bill Gates and his men, he didn't dare to guarantee that the other party would be silent, maybe there was something Su Dingyu was worried about.

After thinking about it, Jiang Xinwei said: "Then I will buy Microsoft's shares...... Coupled with the impact of our piracy, I believe that their stock will fall sharply, and I will buy their shares from now on, as long as they buy enough shares, even if they open up new fields and develop new excellent software in the future, it will also bring us rich. What do you say?"

Su Dingyu was stunned for a moment, then pointed at Jiang Xinwei's nose and laughed, and said, "Hehe, Jiang Xinwei, Jiang Xinwei, you are really damaged." You kid is addicted to playing tricks on others, aren't you? When you buy shares of Microsoft, others don't think that you are not used to our Zhonghua Software Company, so you deliberately buy shares of Microsoft to help them increase their stock prices, so that the media will not quarrel with us again?"

Jiang Xinxu smiled and said, "I didn't think of this just now. I'm not doing this to give the media fodder for a fight. However, if the media really wants to do this, I will not object. ”

Su Dingyu said: "Who are you fooling, you didn't expect to be so cunning?...... What else am I going to do over there, except for selling pirated copies, and other than you buying their shares?"

Jiang Xinwei did not argue with him whether he was cunning or not, but asked: "How is the development of our browser program? Can it be launched around the end of this year?"

Su Dingyu nodded and said, "Absolutely, it depends on when you have time to test it." The program framework and functions have all been figured out by you, Chai Guangpei and they just stuffed the program into it, it must be no problem. By the way, and the instant messaging app you mentioned is pretty much the same. If it goes well, the instant messenger can be released along with the browser software. …… However, Jiang Xinwei, do these two programs have much effect? I know that there are not many people in China who use the Internet, and it is estimated that the number of people in our two companies who go online accounts for more than 50 percent of the total number of people in the country. ”

Jiang Xinwei said: "Don't worry, these two software are big killers against Microsoft." I'm worried that when these two big killers come out, Microsoft will still exist. When the time comes, you just sit back and collect the money, and make sure that you will earn back all the money you might have lost on the operating system. ”

Su Dingyu was overjoyed: "Really?"

Jiang Xinxu said: "As long as our operating system enters the United States, when the time comes, you will lie at home and count the money, and you will definitely doubt your life and whether the numbers on your bank card are real." ”

Su Dingyu smiled: "Hehe, that's good." When the time comes, Lao Tzu will buy a pile of gold and build a palace, which is more extravagant than the Saudi prince. ”

Jiang Xinwei smiled: "Compared to you, those princes will be beggars. ”

Of course Su Dingyu didn't believe it, but he was still happy.

Jiang Xinwei naturally will not tell him that the future will be the world of the Internet, and the current booming telecommunications field will definitely be overshadowed by the Internet in the future. If nothing else, starting next year, the next five years will be the five years of the Internet bubble in the United States, and the Internet will be blown into the sky by people in the United States and even the world.

With just a little bit of sticking to the Internet, the stocks of these companies will rise to the sky.

At that time, Microsoft was a benchmark enterprise on the Internet, and its stock price soared from more than $2.00 per share to nearly $60, an increase of more than 20 times.

It's just that now Microsoft, the protagonist of the Internet bubble, has been beaten in the head by Zhonghua Software Corporation, and it is really hard to say how well Microsoft behaved in the Internet bubble, and it is difficult to say how big the Internet bubble in the United States can blow.

Jiang Xinwei is not worried about whether the Internet bubble in the United States will appear, and he will use East-JM Investment Company to make money if it appears, and if it does not appear, he will make money in other fields.

Just when Jiang Xinwei and Su Dingyu were thinking about how to pit Microsoft, Microsoft's nest was filled with a dull, sad and depressed atmosphere. The current Microsoft is not the Microsoft that is in the ascendant in the future, the market value has just exceeded 20 billion US dollars, the indos95 that initially established Microsoft's supremacy in the operating system is still open, and the Internet bubble in the United States has not yet appeared, so when the media increasingly reports on how good the performance of the firebird98 operating system is, Microsoft's stock price is falling rapidly, and Microsoft's employees are beginning to panic.

In the company's confidential conference room, Bill Gates, the founder of Microsoft, had a gloomy face, glanced at several of his generals, and said in a low tone: "Now our stock price is only 1.7 US dollars, and it has fallen so much in just these two days, which is intolerable for our high-tech company, because we are developing at a high speed, and we need a lot of money and a lot of financing from banks and investors." ”

With that, he turned to a man sitting on his left hand and asked, "Simeone, is the Indos85 we are developing really inferior to their Firebird98?"

Simone, who was asked, coughed awkwardly and said, "Not as good as that." Their design philosophy is far superior to ours. Their structure is also more scientific than ours. Aside from our slight advantage in compatibility with computers such as IBM, our operating system has no chance of winning in the competition. ”

Bill Gates' eyes lit up and he asked, "What do you mean? Is it that their software and hardware are incompatible?"

Simeone didn't bring much excitement to the other party, but said in frustration: "I can't say. Their software ...... , how to put it, it seems to be a bit like a castle in the air, a bit of imagination. But I can't say that they are divorced from reality, I can only say that they are not based on most of the computers that are in use in Huaxia, but on the latest computers of IBM, Compaq and other companies in China. Their operating system is 100 percent effective on these high-performance computers......"

Bill Gates hurriedly asked, "What if it is used on an existing ordinary computer?"

Simeone knew what his boss wanted to ask, but he shook his head and said, "Although it can play at most 80 percent or even only 70 percent on existing ordinary computers, Firebird98 still shows more power than Indos 95, which we haven't released yet." So, we can't use this to attack each other, and we can't say in the media that they are not as functional as us. ”

Bill Gates was surprised and asked, "Their performance is so good?"

Simeone didn't speak, just kept his head down.

Bill Gates asked, "What if we release INDOS95 a few months late, can we develop an operating system that surpasses theirs?"

Seeing that Simeone still didn't speak, Bill Gates sighed in frustration and asked the man on his right, "Thompson, in terms of patents, do we have a way to stop them?"

Both Bill Gates and Simeone know that the software market is completely different from other markets, and companies that have mastered first-mover technology can eat and drink spicy food, and sometimes they can't even drink soup when they follow behind, especially when the industry standard is established in the front, the latecomer can always only be the latecomer.

Although Microsoft was one step ahead in the operating system before, it was far from reaching the time when it established the industry standard, and at this critical point, firebird98, which had the advantage of being a reborn, suddenly came out, making Microsoft's previously established advantage collapse. 8)
