Chapter 51: Attempt [Ask for Subscription!2nd Update]
Although Wanhu's behavior was bold, it did not surprise some people.
These are the so-called appraisers, who look at companies in the market for a long time and try to determine which ones are worth investing in and which ones are not.
In their eyes, in fact, every company has its own personality.
A company like GE General Electric is an old giant enterprise. Its technical strength is undoubted, and its management system is undoubted, but it also faces many problems.
For example, bureaucracy and institutional bloat.
As a result, GE GE has excellent technology, but it looks like a fat man who is not flexible at all, and every movement has to be slow.
Does this mean that GE's general-purpose batteries are poor?
The difference is reversed.
What seems to be a troublesome bureaucracy and institutional bloat is precisely the soul of GE GE.
No mega-corporation, super-large, is not bloated and bureaucratic.
Because of the large number of people, it is originally a matter of internal friction.
Many companies are dying little by little in this kind of internal friction.
However, emerging enterprises such as Wanhu have almost no internal friction problems, or the internal friction problems are covered by rapid development.
Even, there are many analysts who believe that once Wanhu stops expanding, it will inevitably fail.
The reason why they think so is because they think that Wanhu's character is like this.
Some are steady, some are arrogant.
They think that Wanhu is such an arrogant enterprise.
And enterprises with this kind of character are generally rapidly expanding and dying quickly, although they are brilliant and dazzling, but they are like meteors.
Such companies are often more daring.
It's like a free declaration made by Wanhu.
What is the purpose of a company's existence?
At least in the context of capitalism, it is for better money.
At this time, a company jumped out and said that we are not here to make money, but just to make more people live a good life.
Rest assured, it's not that you're crazy, it's that this business is closed.
Because under the premise of capitalism, the object of all production services is profit.
And if you don't have enough profits, if you don't get enough surplus value, you won't be able to carry out industrial upgrading.
There is no way to carry out industrial upgrading, and it is natural to be eliminated.
Wanhu's free declaration looks more like a grumpy guy who said it for the sake of a battle of will.
There is no company in this world that can survive without making money, and there is no company that can survive because it is free.
It's ingrained in their minds.
However, Wanhu himself does not think so.
The idea of promoting the operating system is actually very simple, just to capture more users.
Users are often sticky to a brand.
As long as he is used to using one of the brand's products, he is very likely to buy other products of the brand.
The practice of free system for 10,000 households is to let users use the system of tens of thousands of households first.
Then, they launched something as cheap as a dollar or two to test whether they could be consumed by 10,000 households.
Then, it will implement Wanhu's own main business, such as games.
You know, the gaming industry is not the same as the computer software industry.
This industry is definitely capital-intensive, and basically you can't do it for free if you want to.
In other words, what Wanhu is using here is actually a kind of "Internet thinking" in later generations.
It's about using a product to divert traffic and then making them pay. Instead of paying first and then experiencing the product.
Why is the free 360 antivirus software still a lot of money for Qihoo.
It is because the free 360 antivirus software is an entrance to the diversion.
And if you enter this entrance, you can make money in various ways.
However, Wanhu will not do that kind of thing of drying up and fishing. I won't let my operating system pop up any forced ads every day.
And just at the right time, it is recommended that users take a look at the game of Wanhu and experience the game of Wanhu.
Of course, there is also a self-made news push platform in the system.
There are some ads on it, and these ads are not even hard wide, but soft.
Users can watch the news without spending a penny, but 10,000 households can make money.
When these behaviors are used together, the wrong system of 10,000 households can basically not lose money.
Besides, this kind of research on the underlying and upper-layer software of the hardware is still necessary for Wanhu to do.
Because, Wanhu is also a hardware manufacturer and a manufacturer of video game consoles, and such a technology also needs to be honed.
Microsoft is naturally quite disgusted by Wanhu's digging of the corners of their own homes. Their team of lawyers, almost with all their might.
In an instant, a number of lawsuits were launched against Wanhu.
Wanhu is also not surprised by this, and he sees the move.
In fact, don't look at Microsoft's viciousness, in fact, they don't have many means.
There is enough money in 10,000 households to support them not to be unable to pay the cost of various lawsuits, in fact, the effect of Microsoft's trick has been greatly reduced.
You know, this trick is actually a means of using money to suppress people. 、
Microsoft has a lot of money, so they used to carry out this kind of attack on some small companies that they didn't look down on.
Generally, small companies will eventually choose to settle with Microsoft because they have no money.
And this is one of the reasons why Kaiyuan Forum doesn't like Microsoft.
Microsoft seems to be insatiable, as long as a business gives them hope of making money. They're going to want to take out all the companies that already exist and replace them and make a lot of money in the field.
And this, of course, is unbearable for programmers in the open source community.
Many of them believe that the computer should be a platform with no fees, free communication, and free trials.
For example, what Microsoft does is self-serving and harmful.
It seems that Microsoft is constantly making money with its software business, but it is actually ruining personal computers.
And the appearance of a company like Wanhu that is in line with their position compared to Microsoft really makes them overjoyed.
Wanhu has also made some changes to the rules of free, so that those software developers who are good enough can actually get paid.
It's just that Wanhu can't get the benefits of money from here.
However, just like there are people who support and people who oppose everything.
Some programmers in the open source community began to worry about whether Wanhu would become the next Microsoft if Microsoft disappeared.
After all, this kind of story of defeating the evil dragon and becoming an evil dragon himself has happened many times.
Is anything really free?
