Bill Gates' vision is not so short-sighted.

What he saw was not such a best-selling Microsoft system.

What he expects is total prosperity, and only then can he achieve greater victories.

So when IN84 was on sale and word of mouth was booming, Bill Gates urgently convened a board meeting to promote a cooperation treaty.

This partnership is for Kirin Computer.

Yin Jun is the boss of Kirin Computer, but because when he bought shares, he automatically gave half of his voting rights to Bill Gates and Paul Allen, so his voting rights are actually only 25%, and Bill Gates is more than 40%.

It stands to reason that the shares of these two people have exceeded the absolute majority of two-thirds, and it is normal to promote the company's articles of association and treaties, and there is no need to meet and discuss them at all.

But Bill Gates is not so arbitrary, he is very good at communicating with the board of directors and technical and operational departments, and never acts alone.

Especially this time, when Microsoft's IN84 sales momentum was so good and received unanimous praise, Bill Gates actually asked for a bill to sell IN84 to Kirin Computer Company at a ladder price.

Kylin guarantees that every computer sold will come pre-installed with Microsoft's IN84 system.

Less than 200,000 units are sold annually at a price of $600.

Sell for 20-500,000 yuan for $400.

If 1 million units are sold, the price will plummet to $200 a set!!

Boy!

Although the recording of software discs is worthless, millions and tens of millions of copies are not even worth $0.5, but the cost of knowledge contained in them, as well as the follow-up R&D and maintenance funds, have to be paid in.

So Microsoft has a good reason to sell at a high price.

Especially when they're at the market lead, and they're way ahead.

If a $200 set is sold to Kylin Computer, then Kylin Computer will simply make a lot of money!

A machine equipped with the Microsoft Windows system will make at least $500 more in profit.

If they sell 1 million units, that's a net profit of $500 million!

The most important thing is that this profit is still given to them by Microsoft for nothing, you say that such a thing is put on Microsoft's shareholders and company personnel, do you want to make sense?

At first, everyone was firmly opposed.

Even if Yin Jun is the largest shareholder, you can't be so favoritism!

Therefore, Bill Gates can only make this big discount decision after holding a meeting to discuss and clarify the stakes.

The basis of the decision is that this time the price reduction only involves the IN84 system, and if Microsoft develops a new generation of software, then the agreement will not last, and the price reduction will not exist.

Then it is very important to note that the price reduction is linked to the sales performance of Kirin Computer.

The more computers sold, the more people will use computers with Microsoft's system, and the greater Microsoft's influence will be, which will greatly affect the choice of this group of people when buying a computer next time.

Generally speaking, as long as Microsoft continues to improve, these users will eventually become staunch supporters of Microsoft.

Giving profits to Kirin computers is to help Microsoft open up the market, so that more people can join in the use of new smart computers, and let them join the ranks of using the Microsoft Windows system.

These two are the most important foundations, and they are also the foundation for Bill Gates's plan to be approved by everyone.

Microsoft's heavily discounted operating system is, of course, beneficial to the sale of Kirin computers.

Today's computer is far from the mass commodity of the future, it is still a high-tech product.

The best-performing IBM computers are very expensive, costing around $3,000 for the low configuration and $3,500 or even $4,000 for the high-configuration.

With the addition of Microsoft's operating system, the cheapest is about 3,800 dollars, and the expensive one has to pour 5,000 dollars.

If the Kirin computer can lower the price by 300 or 500, it will also save a lot of money for the Americans.

But the problem lies in another.

No matter how well Kirin computers sell, it also relies on IBM to have today.

IBM's production line is limited, and they are not only a distributor of Kirin Computer, so although the sales network of Kylin Computer has expanded greatly, relatively speaking, the sales capacity of the network has never been saturated.

There's no way, I can only grab so many computers every month, and I can only sell so many.

IBM also has a sales exclusivity agreement.

If you sell computers from other companies, then you are not allowed to buy from IBM!

This has stuck the door of many dealers, and it has also put Kirin Computer in a dilemma.

Of course, the dilemma is only those middle and low-level employees and high-level people who have already begun to prepare to create their own computer brands and launch their own assembled computers.

In the secret laboratory, all kinds of assembly and performance debugging have long been run-in and mature.

The hundreds of engineering machines that have been cobbled together have already undergone very rigorous tests, from 70% of the original IBM performance to about 80%.

After signing a contract with Microsoft, with such a large profit, the senior management of Kirin Computer also made up their minds to officially start the plan to assemble computers.

The orders of various parts were also sent to various manufacturers.

The first batch of orders involved 1 million computers.

It's not that Kirin computers are too arrogant, but they have been in this market for more than half a year, and as a pioneer in selling computers, they already have a great advantage.

And this booming market is too huge, the boss Yin Jun predicts that the number of computers in the world will exceed 1 billion, even if there are not so many, according to the total capacity of 100 million units, what is the 1 million computers?

In the United States, the most developed country in the world with a population of 300 million, if Kirin Computer can't even sell 1 million computers, what ambition is there?

……

As everyone knows, this kind of thinking of the senior management of Kirin Computer is exactly what Bill Gates and Microsoft expect to see.

They have paid so much just to see the computer market expand step by step and become popular all over the world!

However, Bill Gates is still not cunning enough to think too far-sightedly.

In his opinion, in the development of computers, as long as there is enough high-quality computer hardware configuration, plus Microsoft's software support, then there will be many interesting programs.

Whether it's for work or play, if there are constantly excellent programs, more and more people will be attracted to use computers.

This is also the most important factor for Microsoft and Kirin Computer to reach a strategic partnership.

With Bill Gates' character, this licensing price is really a cabbage price, if it weren't for the explosive sales of IN84, he would not have been able to convince him if he could recover his losses elsewhere

Of course, he thinks well.

But it's not enough.

Because computers and mobile phones have the same trajectory.

What makes the computer advance by leaps and bounds and achieves a qualitative leap is when the computer is connected to the network.

It's like the kind of development that makes people jaw-dropping after mobile phones become smartphones and realize mobile phones connecting the world.

In today's 1984, of course, computers have been able to connect to the Internet, but the network speed is slow, and you have to rely on the telephone to dial up the Internet, which is very inconvenient.

If it weren't very necessary, 80% of today's computers are running on a single machine.

In this way, the computer's functions are wasted.

Therefore, while the number of computers is increasing, Yin Jun also has to speed up the construction of network speed.

Kylin Network's multi-protocol routers, switches, optical fiber transmission, network transmission, etc., have all built a framework.

Multi-protocol routers have even entered the state of practical use.

Although there is no global network, several universities, middle schools, and companies in a city have begun to work together to connect to the network through this kind of multi-protocol router.

It involves the entire networking of thousands of computers, which is a very delicate and complex project, which is also a test for the laboratory.

However, the Posacks, who have the most knowledgeable multiprotocol routers, presided over the test, and the problem is not very big.

If there are no surprises, the second phase of testing can begin in the first half of this year.

Boston, the entire city where Stanford University is located, uses this multi-protocol router.

As long as the network of a city can be well connected, then in the future, New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, etc., can be connected to the network in the same way.

The connection of the network, which allows users all over the world to be in one network, is only one aspect of success.

Another success factor is network speed.

To put it simply, it's the speed of network transmission.

At least for now, the speed of the network is the most important.

As for the later server carrying capacity, it was all later.

There are no large-capacity and high-demand online games such as Warcraft, but there is no need to worry so much about the carrying capacity.

If you want people to prefer to use computers in addition to work, then let them soar in the online world.

In the 90s, there was a word that vividly expressed the meaning of this kind of Internet - surfing!

Surfing the Internet is like surfing, and it can stand on the top of the trend, and it is as exciting and interesting as surfing.

These require the speed of the network to guarantee it.

There is no Internet speed, just relying on the current dial-up Internet, it takes a minute or two to open a web page, and the picture often cannot be opened...... Such a network, if you are a little impatient, is easy to give up.

Yin Jun worked optical fiber signal transmission.

Let the optical fiber line carry these transmissions faster and higher, so as to improve the network speed access and outflow speed, and finally achieve a good Internet experience for people.

With Yin Jun's correct guidance, the experts in charge of this area are also constantly studying optical fiber transmission technology, discussing how to improve the carrier capacity, how to maximize the performance of the computer, and not waste network signals.

But it's not something that can be done overnight.

If you want to increase the speed of fiber transmission and make the Internet smooth, it is impossible to do it without a year or two.

This is also on the basis of Yin Jun buying a large number of patents and convening a large number of relevant industry experts.

If they were to bury their heads in their own hands, they would only start to exert their efforts in the mid-90s, just like Cisco in the previous life, and only then would the network speed be greatly improved.

For Yin Jun, ten years of waiting time is too long, and he can't tolerate waiting for that long.

Even if you can't do it all at once, then you should start from now on, and continue to make people see progress, which is the right way to move forward!

Once the network speed increases, then the influx of people to use the computer will increase.

Once this market expands, more people will use Microsoft's Windows system.

As soon as more people use it, a variety of talents will emerge, which will greatly enrich the various applications.

In this way, the prosperity of the web will come.

The improvement of film special effects technology planned by Yin Jun is only one of these achievements.

More far-reaching effects are yet to come!
