Chapter 263 and Microsoft's Offensive and Defensive Battles
If this is the case, Microsoft will presumably breathe a sigh of relief, even if the Huaxia government pulls a bias in the competition between Microsoft and Tianxin Software, as long as it is not too excessive, Microsoft is still confident that it will win the competition. www.biquge.info But next, the Huaxia government directly joined the side of Tianxin Software and engaged in a tug-of-war with Microsoft, which made Microsoft unacceptable.
It's like in a tug-of-war, where the referee comes down and joins the rivals, how can Microsoft win?
Of course, the government firmly denies Microsoft's accusation, and only says that it is a normal business activity. However, Microsoft is angry and jumps to its feet, the government requires all government agencies to use smart operating systems in their office systems, and also requires that they must be replaced before August, and some of these key departments must be replaced immediately, can this be a normal business activity? This is simply bullying!
For this reason, even the US Secretary of State called the Chinese government to inquire about relevant matters.
Just when the outside world thought that there would be another commercial war between China and the United States, the United States quickly died down, and the voice of accusing China of not abiding by the WTO contract quickly disappeared. The US spokesman also remained silent about reporters' questions on relevant issues.
Not to mention the U.S. government, even Microsoft doesn't dare to make noise anymore.
Many people are curious about what kind of tricks Huaxia has to make the United States and Microsoft so jealous, and they have suffered a dumb loss. It's just that the parties don't say it, everyone can only guess. Some people think that China must have paid some benefits in exchange, while others think that China has threatened the United States in some aspects.
Not to mention those media and the public, even Su Yan, Ye Wenbing, Lei Jun and others want to know the reason, but unfortunately only Lu Yang knows about this matter, and Lu Yang obviously will not say it to the public.
"Microsoft was affected by the U.S. government this time, and it also died on its own, thinking that Huaxia couldn't help it, so I picked up a big bargain!" Lu Yang said secretly proudly.
Few people know that the reason why Huaxia strongly supports the smart operating system and resists the pressure of the United States this time is that in addition to Lu Yang being a native of Huaxia and providing the core code of the system to the above for testing, the biggest reason is that Microsoft participated in the espionage activities of the U.S. government, which seriously threatens the information security of Huaxia, which is absolutely intolerable to the Huaxia government.
Lu Yang only found out about this not long ago, and then he took the time to collect some evidence and hand it over to the relevant departments. After confirming this fact, no matter how much Microsoft shows goodwill, it cannot dispel the idea of weakening the Chinese government.
Lu Yang's earlier plan to build a supercomputer failed to materialize, and later he provided Pangu with a supercomputing body by connecting servers in parallel. As the server farm grows, so does Pangu's ability to enter almost any network undetected. Then, Pangu is a frequent visitor to some state secret networks. In a previous operation, Pangu discovered that the U.S. government was collecting information through a number of companies, one of which was Microsoft.
Lu Yang spent a lot of time gathering information from Microsoft, which showed that Huaxia's information security was in extreme danger. And these are the fundamental reasons why the Huaxia government decided to expel Microsoft!
To Lu Yang's surprise, he found that in the project of the US government, which has been launched for 4 years, in addition to Microsoft, Google, Apple, Facebook, etc. are involved. Of the four major players, three of which are Lu Yang's rivals, is too good news to be true.
As for the regression of the United States and Microsoft, Lu Yang is easy to understand. This action of the United States is very covert, and the scope of its surveillance is very wide, even its allies have not let go. If Huaxia makes this information public, the US government will definitely be anxious.
The Meteor laptop, which will be available on June 1, follows a similar route as Apple's MacBookAir, with an aluminum alloy shell, a thin and light appearance, and a beautiful design. Meteor notebooks also have their own advantages, that is, ultra-long standby time, and excellent performance. In terms of configuration, the Meteor notebook far surpasses Apple. The Core i5CPU used by MacBookAir has a maximum content of 4G and a maximum memory of only 256G, because of the low configuration, MacBookAir cannot run games that exceed 2G, and if you run slightly larger games, the whole computer will become bad. The Meteor notebook is different, it can run 3D games perfectly with the use of Superstar CPU, and in terms of memory, it is not worse than other computers, and the 512G storage space can meet more needs.
In terms of software, the smart operating system has long proven itself. The PC version of the smart operating system also adds more accurate voice control, intelligent assistants, etc., more intelligent, and it also has the advantages of higher security, more personalized experience, etc., which is quickly accepted by the consumer group of Tianxin Electronics.
Another significant advantage of the Meteor notebook is the standby time. Equipped with a battery specially developed for it by Tianxin Super, the Meteor notebook can support up to 50 hours of wireless web browsing and up to 40 hours of video playback...... This kind of standby time can be crazy!
Meteor notebook is positioned as a high-end business notebook, and it is naturally complete in office software, so Tianxin Software and Kingsoft Office have reached a cooperation to develop a smart version of WPS that can be compatible with Office, adding many functions to meet the needs of business office as much as possible.
The final price of the Meteor notebook is 8688, which is also a big advantage over Apple's previously released MacBookAir, which costs more than 12000 on this configuration.
Because of its ultra-high cost performance, the Meteor notebook has won the highest evaluation in the industry, and many white-collar workers placed orders on JD.com for the first time, wanting to get this notebook with the longest standby time in history. Within a week of its launch, the sales volume of Meteor notebooks in China reached 30,000, making a good start. Although this number is very inconspicuous compared with brands such as Lenovo and Asus, it is already very high in the field of high-end thin and light notebooks. The Meteor notebook's competitor, the MacBookAir, sells less than half of its sales in China, which already shows the strength of the Meteor notebook.
The promotion of the smart operating system in China is very smooth. Since May, the government has announced that it will no longer purchase Microsoft's Windows system and will use smart operating systems instead. That's a clear signal.
In the next two months, the operating system of government agencies changed drastically, from Windows XP and Windows 7 to Smart OS 1.0. Some of these key departments were replaced earlier, and Tianxin Software also provided customized operating systems for units and enterprises, which were much cheaper than Microsoft's, but not worse than them in terms of performance.
Driven by this trend, the number of private PCs changing operating systems has gradually increased. To this end, Ye Wenbing and they have also specially developed a fool-type flashing software, which only needs a very simple operation to install the smart operating system. Ye Wenbing believes that as long as the majority of users experience the intelligent operating system, they will never turn to the Windows system again. In terms of experience, the Windows system is definitely an order of magnitude worse than the intelligent operating system.
"Microsoft is facing its biggest crisis ever!" At Microsoft's board meeting, Bill Gates, who rarely attends the meeting, not only presided over the meeting, but also expressed serious concern about the company's development.
"I went to Huaxia last month and had talks with the top level of Huaxia, although we have made a lot of efforts, but now it seems that these efforts have not had any effect, and the Huaxia government has sent a signal that they do not welcome Windows!" Bill Gates briefly talked about the situation of going to China.
Some people on the board of directors still did not understand the situation and said angrily: "The actions of the Chinese government are completely contrary to the principles of the WTO, and we should let the US government come forward and sanction them and make them change this practice!" ”
Bill Gates listened, and Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer smiled bitterly, if they could do this, they would have done it a long time ago, why not suffer a dumb loss? Now Huaxia has caught evidence that the U.S. government has collected information through Microsoft, but it has not been made public, just to threaten them to shut up.
Steve Ballmer thought for a while and said: "We have been in China for 20 years, and the user group we have cultivated is not comparable to Tianxin Software. In the short term, user habits aren't that easy to change. The most important thing now is to keep the Chinese government as neutral as possible in this commercial war, and even if it can't, to avoid their direct involvement. We can still do this. ”
Microsoft's strength in Huaxia has indeed exceeded Lu Yang's expectations, Microsoft Huaxia has been established for nearly 20 years, and has set up a research and development center in Huaxia, Microsoft Global Technical Support Center and Microsoft Research Asia three world-class research institutions, and many companies in Huaxia have cooperated, including many large state-owned enterprises. Just like the previous electrical technology company, its influence is not comparable to ordinary enterprises.
"Okay, this matter must be as soon as possible, the government's orders will be put aside first, and the enterprise orders will be maintained first." Bill Gates knows that in the short term, Microsoft will have to rely on corporate partners if it wants to stabilize the Chinese market, after all, this part of the business provides most of their profits in China. As for ordinary users, Bill doesn't think they will immediately switch to Tianxin software, how can the operating habits developed in 20 years change in a short period of time?
Facts have proved that Microsoft's estimate of the Chinese market is very accurate, although they have lost orders from government agencies, but the cooperative enterprises have stabilized, and only 15% of enterprise users consider cooperating with Tianxin Software. Less than 8% of the average user actually changed the operating system, most of them were college students, and they did not give up on the Windows system.
"Boss, this is the sales data of the meteor notebook in June, the sales volume of the Chinese market this month can reach 100,000, and the sales volume in the international market is only 20,000, which is very different from Apple's MAC. In the same period, the sales volume of the other party reached 300,000 ......" Ye Wenbing and Lei Jun were a little frustrated, since "Starry Sky 1", Tianxin Group has never had such a big gap with Apple.
Lu Yang didn't particularly care, after all, laptops and smartphones are not the same, this market has been carved up by major brands, and it is already a strong cloud. As a latecomer, Tianxin Electronics wants to step on the shoulders of others and go up, which is not so easy.
"We are a new brand, sales are not in a hurry, take your time. What is the share of the intelligent operating system on the PC side? Lu Yang asked.
"Because of policy support and government procurement, the promotion of the PC version of the operating system is very smooth, but there is still an absolute gap with Windows. However, in terms of market share, we have surpassed Apple's macOS system, second only to the Windows system. Ye Wenbing analyzed.
Lei Jun said: "From the perspective of growth trends, the situation is not optimistic in the future, and the sales of notebook computers have not met expectations, which has brought a lot of pressure to the promotion of the operating system." In addition, Microsoft's counterattack is very sharp, not only have they stabilized enterprise-level users, but even ordinary users rarely give up Windows. ”
Although the two didn't say it, Lu Yang could feel their frustration.
"I said Lao Ye, Lao Lei, speaking of which, before you came to Tianxin Group, you all had experience in managing large companies, and you have experienced a lot of ups and downs, so you shouldn't care about temporary success or failure, why do you feel ...... now" Lu Yang asked with a smile.
Lei Jun and Ye Wenbing looked at each other in astonishment, and after a while, they smiled bitterly at the same time.
"The boss is right, it may have been too smooth in the past few years, thinking that we are invincible in the world, and now when we meet our opponents, we find that we still have a lot of shortcomings." Ye Wenbing said. (To be continued.) )
