"Bill, look at this invitation. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info "Ballmer put an invitation letter in Bill? Gates on the table.

Even think about Silver Mountain Software Company, what kind of invitation did they send me? Could it be that they have developed some powerful software products?

Bill? Gates suddenly thought of what Feng Yu once said to him, saying that Microsoft's PC system will also be challenged, right?

Bill? Gates hurriedly opened the invitation, and it said that Lianxiang Yinshan officially started to make a PC operating system, a Windows system based on Linux basic code, which will be an unprecedented low price.

Ballmer seeing Bill? The look of shock on Gates' face was the same expression he had when he first saw the invitation.

What he didn't expect the most was that Lianxiang Yinshan did not hold this new product launch conference in Huaxia, but set the location of the conference in New York, Wind and Rain-Empire State Building.

What this means is already obvious, it is aimed at Microsoft, who makes Microsoft the absolute overlord of the PC operating system!

"Tell me to come back immediately and convene a temporary board meeting!"

……

"Bill, what's the matter, calling us back in such a hurry? Isn't someone misspeaking? "Paul? Alan asked with an unhappy expression.

He still has something to do with his own company, and he was originally holding a board meeting, but he was called back by Microsoft. Originally, he said that he would not come, but Ballmer told him that Bill said that everyone must be there this time, and whoever can't come back will be responsible.

Ballmer's appearance of a fox and a fake tiger makes Paul? Alan was very angry, and he deliberately said such a sentence.

As for saying the wrong thing, of course it was impossible, and he himself would not have believed that Ballmer would make such a low-level mistake.

Bill? Gates didn't bother with Paul? Allen, instead looked at the others: "Everyone is here, Ballmer, you can introduce the situation." ”

Ballmer told the story of the invitation, and the conference room fell into a dead silence. They never thought that even a "small company" like Silver Mountain would dare to challenge their position as Microsoft in the Windows system!

"Steve, are you kidding us? Huaxia even wants to think about Yinshan Company, they are going to hold a press conference to announce their upcoming PC operating system? Even fruit companies and IBM companies can't compete with us in this area, that small company, why should they! ”

Lian Xiang Yinshan is the largest software company in China, but in front of a giant like Microsoft, it is really a small company.

Ballmer then said, "Paul, let me warn you. Last month, Forbes valued Lianxiang Silver Mountain, believing that it ranks first among unlisted software companies, and even among unlisted IT companies, it also ranks first. Their estimate of the company's market capitalization is more than $50 billion! ”

"Five billion dollars? Is this also a big company? Let's not say that when we were at our peak, let's just say that now, our market value is more than 400 billion dollars, right? They are one-eighth of us. How many IT companies in the world are there with this market capitalization? And how many IT companies can compare with us in terms of market capitalization? ”

"Speaking of market share, many of our software products are the first, to put it mildly, even many products are in a monopoly position, can they? Even in the Chinese and Eastern European markets, they are just the same as us. As for other markets, it is far inferior to us. ”

"They are inferior to us everywhere, how can they compete with us? I think they just want to let out the wind so that they can build momentum for their listing, so that the shares they issue can be sold quickly at a high price. ”

Paul? Allen's remarks were supported by many people. They have also learned about Lianxiang Yinshan, a competitor, and it is said that it is preparing to go public.

It's normal to release some good news before the listing to stimulate the stock price. As for the news that was later proved wrong, the stock price fell, and the shareholders were probably already cashing out to make money and leaving, and it was those retail investors who lost.

Bill? Gates suddenly said at this time: "Don't forget, at the beginning, we at Microsoft were just a small company that made software for IBM. But now, we've managed to overtake IBM. Our original scale is far inferior to the current Lianxiang Silver Mountain. ”

"That's right, we caught up with the good times, when the operating systems stood side by side, and we stood out with simpler operations, and gradually became the first in the industry, and even formed a de facto monopoly. And our other products, such as office software, have gradually become the world's first. ”

"If we can do it, why can't they? Not to mention other markets, China and Eastern Europe markets alone have more geographical advantages than us. ”

"Bill, I agree with what you said, but if they're in the capital of China, or if they're in Moscow for a new product launch, I believe they might have made a good operating system. But they chose New York, which means that they made an English version of the operating system, to face the world, do you think it is possible? "Paul? Alan asked rhetorically.

Whether it is China or Eastern Europe, the mother tongue is not English, how can they make an English operating system? It's normal to make Russian or Chinese.

Hear Paul? Allen's words, Bill? Gates also felt as if he might be too nervous. However, the last time Feng Yu said that he gave Microsoft a blow in office software, the result really happened.

So what he said about the operating system, how could it not happen to give Microsoft a blow? Feng Yu became the richest man in the world at such a young age, and he has too many high-quality assets, so he must be very proud.

Even if it is just to save face, Feng Yu will invest a lot of money to let people develop an operating system. At least by virtue of their geographical advantages, they can occupy a place in China and Eastern Europe.

"Have you ever thought that Lianxiang Group is listed in Xiangjiang, and Lianxiang Yinshan is also inquiring on the exchange over there in Xiangjiang, even if they are trying to build momentum for listing, they should choose Xiangjiang, how could they choose New York?" Bill? Gates asked rhetorically.

"Maybe they plan to go public on the NASDAQ, since Lianxiang Group and Lianxiang Yinshan are listed separately, then in the two exchanges, the risk can be reduced. Besides, how can the media attention of Xiangjiang compare with New York in our country, which is the largest, most prosperous and richest city in the world! "Paul? Allen's face was haughty.

"This ...... Forget it, everyone get ready, if the other party is really developing, or has successfully developed PC operating system software, then we have to keep them at bay. If the other party is just for hype, then let them not be hyped. This time I'm going to attend their new product launch, Paul, how about you lead the team? ”

Paul? Alan curled the corners of his mouth: "Okay, I want to see how their farce is staged!" ”
