Chapter 1023 More Profitable Than the Fed (2/10, Installments Plus Change)
Recalling the two nights spent at Bill Gates' house, Han Xuan remembers asking himself many questions about Be-OS. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Asking about the progress of research and development, the use of the situation, and the future plan is as verbose as Tang Sanzang......
I thought he was only interested in this aspect, but in retrospect, Bill was probably worried that his company's monopoly would be broken by Be-OS, so he kept asking the inside story from the side.
The be-os operating system has been attracting attention since its first appearance because it is so good!
It was so good that Jobs was worried about it, and he called Han Xuan last time to ask Han Xuan if he had any plans to sell it.
Bill Gates, who is so good that it already accounts for 90% of the desktop operating system market, is afraid that it threatens Microsoft's position.
Most of the company executives next to Han Xuan don't know much about computers, and some of them didn't even start learning computers until the company recently advocated "paperless office", and they had never used them before.
For example, Anthony uses one-finger Zen for typing.
Usually most of the documents are sent with the help of the secretary, and only the important messages are written by themselves, or they are lazy to call.
Therefore, they didn't know what Han Xuan meant by what he just said, only Christopher and Old Charlie showed regretful expressions on their faces, lamenting that this excellent operating system was born at the wrong time.
It only started research and development in 1990, and it was still facing the dilemma of lack of funds in the early stage, until it was acquired by Hope Technology, and did it have sufficient R&D funds and talents.
If Be-OS appeared before Windows 95 appeared, it is not certain who can be the boss of the desktop operating system market, and even now there is an opportunity to counterattack and seize the market.
It's that good!
Han Xuan loves it more and more, although he found a few small problems that are not in line with his habits, such as when playing videos, the pause and fast-forward bar will run with the progress bar, and the icon style is ugly, etc., but this does not affect the smoothness and convenience of use.
There was no wireless network, and remembering that Starbucks had an interface, he didn't care about continuing the conversation, and trotted to rub the network with his bebook notebook.
Some reporters and guests who had not left yet saw the strange things in Han Xuan's hands and immediately talked about it.
The reporters were about to take pictures, but the old executive officer Charlie came to stop him and said: "This is just a sample of our company, and when it is officially released, a special press conference will be held to invite you."
Please don't give away its specific style ahead of time, just say that it's a very beautiful, advanced laptop.
I swear it's better than everything on the market right now, including IBM and Apple......"
Most of those who stayed were financial reporters, not as gossipy as entertainment reporters, and now there is no moral degradation in this industry, and most of them nodded intimately and agreed......
Han Xuan's side, he sat down and ordered a cup of caramel macchiato.
He smiled very handsomely, and said to a Starbucks waitress who was only about twenty years old, "Miss, can you please help me get a network cable?"
When money and status reach a certain level, race is no longer a problem, not to mention that he looks quite in line with the aesthetics of Westerners.
Facing the world's No. 1 diamond bachelor, the female clerk blushed and stammered, "Okay."
I'll give it to you now, please wait......"
He is no longer the one who used to be when people saw him, only praising smart and cute children, who were very lethal to young women.
This is something that makes Han Xuan complacent, so after seeing her performance, his smile is even brighter......
After connecting to the network and knowing the account and password, the login was relatively smooth.
Nowadays, in most places in the United States, the network speed has increased to 56k, and the Silicon Valley area is recently testing a 128k network to prepare for a second speed, and this is one of the pilots.
The Destiny browser has developed a Be-OS version, just search for "king squid", hit enter, and the text will be opened very quickly, and the image is slightly slower.
The page is full of news about sea monsters, and there are more than 80,000 replies and more than 3,000 posts in one of the largest forums, and it seems that the number of netizens has increased a lot compared to previous years.
After clicking on an image, it won't be saved, so I tried to save it on my desktop for a while, and then quit the browser and open the image again.
Seeing the tip of the first operation that said that you can zoom in on the whole picture and take a screenshot of the part, Han Xuan first tried to slide the mouse to see the effect of full-screen magnification, which is quite clear.
Then take a screenshot of the small window of the part, and after pressing the mouse, it will be processed in less than a second, and even the suction cup on the claws of the king squid can be clearly visible.
Then I tried playing Blizzard Entertainment's Diablo 1 game.
He has played the Windows version, and the game seems to be smoother on Be-OS, and it is clear that the PC configuration at home is more advanced.
Last year, Blizzard Entertainment Group's second game series after Warcraft: Humans & Orcs was released.
Under the huge publicity effect, in just one month, more than 2.6 million units were sold around the world, which caused a sensation in the entire game industry in one fell swoop, which is an unprecedented achievement!
In March of this year, the second game, Diablo: Hellfire, was released and has sold more than 3.7 million units so far.
Han Xuan's game company is currently a well-deserved leader in the game industry, and the funds earned are enough to develop new models, and he no longer needs to continue to invest......
After playing for a few minutes, he tried the others, and all the features were not missed.
For more than half an hour, Anthony and the others stood behind Han Xuan, holding the coffee without saying a word, staring at the computer screen, which seemed to be quite interesting.
"That's it.
Let's prepare for the product launch, the day after tomorrow, I'll come in person.
Old Charlie, remember to reward the software developers at the be branch.
On the side of ordinary employees, 10 million dollars are spent from the company's account, and they are distributed according to rank and merit, and you can arrange it according to the specifics.
And two other directors, I remember being called Jean Geise and Steve Scowman, right?
Each will be rewarded with a million dollars, plus an Aston Martin car, whatever style they want.
Executive Kesten Miller, remember to ask them when you have time, and if you don't like it, Bentley and Rolls-Royce can too. ”
"Well, I'll see them later.
If you're at this age, you'll probably like a more classic car.
Bentley still has it in stock, so you can transfer it to both of them at any time, and you'll be happy to hear about your gift. ”
Kesten Miller replied, looking sideways to ask Christopher where they were......
Anthony saw that the small boss began to lose again, and a reward was all the assets of a small listed company, and money was not spent like this!
He rubbed his nose and said with a headache, "As for being so happy?"
Apple lost more than $20 million last quarter, and the industry doesn't seem to be doing well, and the board of directors is ready to get rid of Jobs again......"
"That's Jobs, still confused.
I've found a way out, and now that the PC side has been taken over by Microsoft, I'm going to take the mobile device.
I'll tell you later, it's a trade secret now, it's very profitable anyway, maybe one day in the future, it will be more profitable than the Federal Reserve......"
Han Xuan was very excited.
Microsoft and Intel have dominated the PC market and are facing anti-Toslav lawsuits, but they are not leading the way in laptops, which is a near-blank market.
The be-os operating system can be ported to mobile terminals such as mobile phones and tablets in the future, and it is also closed, like Apple's system.
Windows is the main personal office software, then you can start from the entertainment aspect, video software can be launched, online music can also be used, games are the favorite of teenagers, they are the future of the Internet.
He couldn't think of any reason why he would fail in this business, and he smiled a little silly...... (To be continued.) )
