Chapter 597: Two Ways
After Chen Jie and Bill Gates chatted for a while, the reception room was opened again, and another middle-aged man walked in, watched Bill Gates and Chen Jie chatting happily, apologized to everyone, and then looked at Bill Gates and asked
"Bill heard you're looking for me?"
"Paul is here to introduce you, this is Jerry Chen. I believe that you should be no stranger to him www.biquge.info pen "Fun". But one thing you don't know is that Jerry is a great software engineer! He and his team designed an Excel spreadsheet. I came to you just to show you this software designed by Jerry! Bill Gates looked at his friend and said, "Jerry, let me introduce you, this one is my good friend and my good partner Paul Allen." Speaking of which, he's also a fan of yours, or did he recommend it to me after listening to your song first? ”
"Then I really should thank Mr. Allen. Otherwise, I wouldn't have lost my fans! Chen Jie said with a smile.
Paul Allen was shocked when he heard his friend say that Chen Jie still thought he was a software engineer and had designed a spreadsheet. You must know that when the two chatted together two days ago, Bill Gates had just proposed to design a spreadsheet with the fastest computing speed in the world. At this time, Chen Jie came to them with a spreadsheet. This in itself is already quite surprising. What shocked Paul Allen even more was the excitement that his friend was showing now, and it seemed that Chen Jie really had a very high-end level in software design. Otherwise, how could Bill Gates be so excited? You must know that Bill Gates is not only the future richest man in the world, but also one of the best software engineers in the world. can make Bill Gates so excited, then Chen Jie's skills should not be too bad.
"Jerry, you're so polite, call me Paul, Bill is right, I'm really your fan. You'll have to take a picture with me in a moment. Of course, it would be nice if you could sign it for me by the way! Paul Allen also said with a smile after coming back to his senses.
After the three of them chatted for a while, Bill Gates' secretary led a group of people into the reception room. Computers in this era are still very cumbersome. So it took a lot of help to carry a computer to the reception room at once. Several people assembled their computers and left the reception room. Chen Jie looked at Zhao Yazhi, only to see Zhao Yazhi take out a floppy disk from the bag she was carrying and hand it to Chen Jie, Chen Jie took the floppy disk, walked to the computer and sat down to insert the floppy disk into the computer, and began to demonstrate the Excel spreadsheet for Bill Gates and Paul Allen. While carrying out various operations, he began to explain to the two of them.
More than half an hour later, after Chen Jie introduced the various functions of Excel to the two, he got up and gave up his position in front of the computer, Bill Gates and Paul Allen each sat on the chair that Chen Jie had just left and experimented, both of them were surprised. Especially Bill Gates, the function of this excel spreadsheet designed by Chen Jie is too powerful. It's not just about meeting some of Bill Gates' ideas. There are also a lot of extended features. Although Bill Gates was already very surprised when he listened to Chen Jie's brief introduction to Excel. However, when he saw Chen Jie's demonstration and tried it himself, Bill Gates was even more surprised. The spreadsheet designed by Chen Jie is definitely of cross-generational significance.
"Jerry, did you really design this form?" Before Bill Gates could sigh, Paul Allen looked at Chen Jie in surprise and asked.
"I just came up with some ideas, and most of them were designed by my team, the software development department of Huatian Technology Company in Hong Kong. Of course, I was involved in it, but it was much smaller than their work! Chen Jie said with a smile.
"Hong Kong Huatian Technology?" Bill Gates repeated Chen Jie's words and said, "Why haven't you heard of this company before?" ”
"It's normal because this company was just started last year. Now we are mainly engaged in video game production, animation production, film special effects and software development! And I myself am the majority shareholder of this company! Chen Jie explained.
"I see," Bill Gates said after listening to Chen Jie's explanation, "By the way, Jerry, you said that you want to find our company to cooperate, I want to hear your proposal!" ”
After listening to his friend's words, Paul Allen also understood the purpose of Chen Jie's visit today. also looked at Chen Jie, wanting to hear what kind of cooperation Chen Jie had.
"Actually, I have two ways to cooperate, but I don't know which one you can choose!" Chen Jie said after listening to Bill Gates's words.
"Can you tell me all about it?" Bill Gates said after listening to Chen Jie's words.
"The first way of cooperation, I hope to have your company act as an agent for our company's office system software. And this excel spreadsheet is just one of the software of our company's office system. Follow-up is word text processing software, and PowerPoint graphic editing software. Although these two software are not completely completed yet, I am sure that when they are completed, they will definitely not be disappointed. If your company chooses this type of cooperation. We Huatian Technology can not charge your company's agency fee. However, we have a few conditions for Huatian Technology! Chen Jie said.
"On what terms?" Bill Gates looked at Chen Jie and asked.
Speaking of which, the current Microsoft doesn't want to be as rich as it was later. Now Microsoft's market value is only tens of millions of dollars. Far from the hundreds of billions of dollars that came on. Hearing Chen Jie say that he could not charge agency fees, Bill Gates was still very moved.
"First of all, our sales dividend should be a little higher, at least 60% of the net profit. In addition, if your company wants to find an agent in Asia in the future. I hope that under the same conditions, we can give priority to Huatian Technology. Last but not least, the copyright of the office system software belongs to Huatian Technology. Chen Jie looked at the two and said.
Bill Gates and Paul Allen both fell into deep thought after listening to Chen Jie's words, and Chen Jie's conditions still have certain advantages for the current Microsoft company. Although in this way, Microsoft makes a relatively small profit. However, it can save a one-time agency fee. In this way, Microsoft can not only invest more money in research and development, but also increase promotion efforts. In this way, the final income is not necessarily lower than that of a normal agent.
