, although the negotiation has always been a sky-high asking price to repay the money on the spot, but there is no such bargaining, right?

From 10% to 2%, directly block the ankle bargaining, it's not so fun?—— it's really a bit too much.

Yes, Bill Gates's bargaining is indeed too ruthless, and he directly cut James White into confusion.

So, after a moment of bewilderment, James White said categorically with a hint of anger: "Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

"$400 million? Mr. Bill Gates is really an offer? If in your mind, Microsoft is only worth the price, then I have nothing to say. Shaking his head with a sneer, James White continued: "It seems that there is no need for our negotiations to proceed. ”

I didn't expect his offer to have such a big impact on James White, Bill Gates was stunned for a moment, and then his tone softened a lot and said: "But if you want 10% of Microsoft's shares, we will never accept it, and it will never be approved by the board of directors and the general meeting of shareholders." ”

Hearing that Bill Gates seemed to be relieved, James White took advantage of the situation and said strongly: "10% of the shares, how much? That is, more than 2 billion US dollars, compared to the entire Microsoft, you have made a lot of money, right?"

"In that case, if we Dream Times Technology directly released this system for free, then how much do you think Microsoft will lose?"

Looking at Bill Gates and the others with gloomy faces, James White smiled secretly in his heart and continued to oppress: "Don't look at Microsoft's market value of more than $20 billion now, if we really do this, it is estimated that Microsoft's market value will not even reach 2 billion, right?"

"At that point, I'm sure you won't think $2 billion is a lot of money, right?

In the face of James White's increasingly strong oppressive momentum, several people on Microsoft's side were suddenly in their hearts, and the other party's momentum was about to take off. Therefore, Bill Gates and others understand that they must quickly suppress the momentum of the other party, otherwise Microsoft will only become weaker and weaker in this negotiation, and will eventually be slaughtered by the other party at will.

"Mr. James White, are you a bit alarmist?" Steve Ballmer, of course, fired the first shot of Microsoft's counterattack: "Yes, there is some truth in what you say, but this system software from Dream Times Technology will definitely not have such a big impact on Microsoft." You know, Microsoft's customer base is quite stable, and our follow-up service has also made countless customers inseparable from Microsoft. ”

Therefore, even if the system software of Dream Times Technology is released, it will only become the object of a small number of high-end players, and will not be able to harvest the largest number of ordinary customer groups. Because these ordinary customer groups need more than just a good operating system, they need follow-up maintenance and technical support - not everyone can play with computers. ”

Eh, isn't it true that Steve Ballmer is so reasonable that he can't refute it?

Hehe, but so what?

Or is it that sentence, since what you said is so beautiful, let me ask you - do you dare to take the risk of trying, let Dream Times Technology release this "copycat version" of INDOS95 for free to try?

There is no doubt that no one, whether it is Bill Gates or anyone else at Microsoft, would dare to take this risk. It's very simple, because once this risk is not done well, it will really scrap Microsoft, and it may fall into the abyss all of a sudden.

In a word, never underestimate people's ** and greed.

Why use what you charge for when there's something that's free? Besides, there's no difference between the two.

As for the update and technical support thing, hehe, there are countless "enthusiastic people" who will be happy to do it.

Therefore, Microsoft will never dare and will not take this risk.

What's more, Microsoft is now like a fine piece of porcelain, and Dream Times technology is a tattered piece of pottery — and Microsoft really doesn't need to take that risk.

James White naturally knew that Steve Ballmer was fooling, so he said unceremoniously: "In that case, then we can try." ”

Well, as soon as he heard James White's words, Steve Ballmer gave Bill Gates a helpless look, Nima, it's completely oily and salty, then it's no problem.

Hey, this time it was eaten to death by the other party, because the other party also knew that Microsoft didn't dare to take this risk, so it would bite to death.

Sighing helplessly, Bill Gates said with a somewhat defeated face: "Mr. James White, 10% of the shares is too much, even if I agree, Microsoft's board of directors and shareholders' meeting will never agree, after all, the price paid is too great." ”

"So, I hope you show your sincerity, and we at Microsoft will also show our sincerity. ”

After hearing Bill Gates's words, James White knew that the other party really wanted to talk about it this time, so he no longer suppressed the sneer on his face and nodded lightly.

Looking at Bill Gates, James White said seriously: "Then Microsoft will give up all the shares?"

After looking at Steve Ballmer and others, Bill Gates stared at James White and said seriously: "5%, this is our bottom line." ”

Listening to the price code given by Bill Gates, James White shook his head, and then said: "No, no, no, although this price has increased a lot, it is still too low." ”

"8%, this is the bottom line of our Dream Times technology. ”

As soon as James White's words landed, Steve Ballmer's head shook like a rattle and said, "This price is too high." ”

"Microsoft adds a maximum of 0.5%, and the price of 5.5% is quite high. ”

"We can take a step back, 7.3%!"

“5.8%！”

“7%。 ”

……

The two sides are like buying vegetables in the vegetable market, bargaining carefully, but also, 0.1% of the shares is more than 20 million US dollars, how can they not care?

As a result, between the back and forth of the two sides, Microsoft and Dream Times Technology finally slowly collided to a suitable price......
