Chapter 292: First Encounter with Madonna
After Shaohuai's speech, Zhang Shaojie followed up with his speech. Compared with Shaohuai's speech, which was more disorderly, Zhang Shaojie's speech was more pragmatic:
"Colleagues, you should be glad to be a part of Ord Technologies! Because ORD Technology has seized the market opportunity, developed the most promising products, and has the potential to become a great super software giant!
Of course, the growth of ORD does not depend solely on our luck. Rather, it depends on the development of science and technology in the whole world. The popularization of microcomputers has brought huge business opportunities!
The decade of the 80s will be the decade of the popularization of microcomputers! The emergence of microcomputers will be an industrial revolution in the true sense.
In the current computer market, Apple can sell 200,000 units a year, 200,000 PCs a year, plus other microcomputers in bits and pieces, but the scale is only 1 million units.
It seems that the entire market is only about $1 billion, which is insignificant.
However, more and more home users, as well as office users, are aware of the convenience that personal computers bring to their lives, work, and studies.
Therefore, the popularization of personal computers will be a general trend.
In the future, personal computers, like telephones and TV dramas, will be used in all offices and homes. In the next 10 years, 100 million people in the world will own computers, and in 20 years it will be 1 billion people, and in 30 years there will be 3 billion people.
The reason why people need computers is nothing more than the aspects that computer applications bring to life and work, as well as the entertainment of computers and bring fun to life.
People need word processing software, table software, and chart software for their offices.
People need movie playing software, game software, music software, and software that can be read.
People need a dumb machine – they need software that is easy to use
In the future, there will be an internet that will connect every computer to a whole. People can also visit some websites, use software to communicate with each other, watch video programs, shop, and can
In short, with the development of technology, we have too many opportunities. Any kind of computer software application, which is the strongest in the industry, has the potential to carve up billions or even tens of billions of dollars in market share.
In the future, the entire computer industry will have an output value of several trillion dollars. It will be dozens of times more than the current computer industry.
Of course, so many opportunities also mean that we will encounter more opponents and more challenges in the process of technological change.
Among the various challenges, we must distinguish the priorities, and there are two major parts of the market that cannot be lost - personal computer operating system and office software, which are the two most popular programs for computer applications! It will be the most profitable market now and in the future.
Secondly, we need to meet the needs of users to watch movies and play computer games, and make a variety of apps full of entertainment! After the Internet begins to spread, we must transform into an Internet technology-related enterprise
At present, our DOS system has become the most popular system on PC. However, this system is only adapted to the current market.
In the future, consumers may need visual graphical systems, so we need to be prepared. It is necessary not only to maintain the competitive advantage of the DOS system, but also to start the development of a new generation of graphic system.
In terms of office software, our ORD is not enough, but also has other components, such as excel chart software, for office staff to make charts. To have poerpoint software, people can use slides to cooperate with their own explanations and presentations"
With Zhang Shaojie's detailed explanation of the future trend of the computer market, as well as the company's detailed development.
The employees of the entire company felt shocked and felt that "listening to your words is better than reading a book for ten years".
The future development route of the computer industry seems to be summarized by Zhang Shaojie, and the development along this road is almost equivalent to being in an invincible position.
"That's great!"
"Theism!"
"No wonder the boss was able to achieve so much at such a young age!"
Numerous employees, shocked applause.
After Zhang Shaojie got off the podium, he began to be surrounded by many employees and asked.
Many employees began to carefully ask what is "excel", what is "poerpoint", what is "Internet", what is "browser"
Zhang Shaojie's explanation was dry.
After listening to this, many technicians admired Zhang Shaojie's foresight.
It can be said that with Zhang Shaojie's explanation, the company has begun to establish several major projects excel, poerpoint, and graphic systems
Excel, PoerPoint and the original ODD form a more complete office software system.
The core program of the graphical operation system, the "graphical user interface", was actually developed by Xerox in the 70s.
In '79, Steve Jobs visited Xerox's laboratory and was shocked by the invention of the graphics system, the mouse, and so on.
Later, Apple began to develop the Macintosh computer, which used a mouse and loaded it with a "graphical user interface". Of course, Apple did not have Xerox authorization, so it got into a lawsuit.
Zhang Shaojie didn't want to leave hidden dangers, so when he instructed the company to develop a graphics system, he was naturally preparing to obtain Xerox's GUI graphics user interface patent authorization first.
Of course, if Xerox had not authorized it, ORD would have developed graphics system software.
After all, the graphics system is historically indicative - Apple infringed Xerox patents and was sued. Microsoft has also infringed Apple's patents and has been sued by Apple.
It is also the norm for the software industry to infringe on other people's patents.
It doesn't matter if you are really strong, you don't care about infringing on other people's patents, even if it is a risk of compensation of one billion or eight billion, it will be infringed.
Since the 90s, the graphics system has been able to make an average annual profit of $5 billion in 20 years, and these direct profits alone are enough to make $100 billion in 20 years.
Not to mention, the operating system occupies the commanding heights of the application software industry, and ordinary applications have to rely on the snorting of the operating system, which brings invisible benefits that are even more incalculable!
—————————— in the United States, in addition to inspecting ORD Technology Company, Zhang Shaojie also attended the press conference of Xiaobawang Company in North America.
Xiaobawang's product launch conference is scheduled for July 10.
There will be Michael. Jackson, Madonna and other endorsement stars participated in press conferences to build momentum for Xiaobawang's game console.
Michael. Jackson, who had already debuted in the 70s, had already made a huge name in the record industry. In '82, Michael. Jackson's "Thriller" album became a huge hit, becoming the only record in world record history to have a circulation of more than 100 million.
Michael. Jackson is very busy right now. However, Michael. Jackson apologized on the phone and said he would come to the press conference by July 10.
At this time Madonna, compared to Michael. Jackson, it's literally a firefly compared to the moon.
Because, the 82-year-old Madonna has just released her first single, although she has a good performance, but it is only a slightly amazing new singer. Compared to a superstar like Jackson, the gap is still a world away.
When Zhang Shaojie was in San Francisco, Madonna, under the leadership of her agent, smiled sweetly and said, "Zhang Shaojie, hello!" I like your "The Legend of Double Dragons of the Tang Dynasty" so much, Hollywood can't make movies of your style, it's an artistic enjoyment"
"Yes, have you watched "The Legend of Double Dragons of the Tang Dynasty"?" Zhang Shaojie was a little surprised, "Can you understand?" ”
"Of course, the movie tells the story of two ancient gangsters who meet a fairy who teaches them a magical magic called "The Recipe for Eternal Life". Both men love fairies, but fairies are killed by the evil frost mage. Xu and Kou vowed to cultivate the "Recipe of Eternal Life", become a greater legendary warrior, and avenge the fairy Fu Junzhuo," Madonna said seriously.
Zhang Shaojie felt tears streaming down his face.
Nima Frost Magician Youmu You, Two Men Like a Woman Youmu You, Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling Want to Become Great Legendary Warriors Youmu You?
Yu Wenhua and that is Xuan Bing Jin, not frost magic, okay? Although Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling wanted to practice martial arts to take revenge, they could think about becoming the so-called "legendary warriors" from Mu You
There is a huge difference between the comprehension ability of Westerners and Orientals.
However, after listening to Madonna's explanation of the plot, Zhang Shaojie can be sure that she has indeed watched the movie "The Legend of Double Dragons of the Tang Dynasty: Origin".
In addition to understanding the deviation, the general plot line is still relatively reliable.
"It's an honor for you to have watched my "Datang". However, because of the differences between Eastern and Western cultures, there are some details problems. Maybe your understanding is skewed. If you want to know more about the oriental martial arts culture, in the future, the "Legend of Double Dragons of the Tang Dynasty", as well as the settings in the story, will be translated into English, and I can give you a set" Zhang Shaojie said with a smile.
"Thank you! Looking forward to receiving your gift! Madonna laughed.
