Chapter 399: Microsoft's Moves
Wang Guiyin couldn't wait to go back to Zhang Luo, leaving Xu Feng and Wei Jianfeng to continue to stay in the conference room, just as Xu Feng also wanted to know about the situation.
"By the way, Jianfeng, the trial of the intelligent central module has also been for a while, how is the response on the Internet?" Xu Feng took the initiative to ask.
"Needless to say, the response is now in our official forum,The most discussed topic every day is when this intelligent central module will be officially released,Fans can't wait,Now the Internet says that there are trial videos published by those test users every day,That's really varied,All kinds of novel usages make me can't hold it,You know,Even some people use the intelligent central module as a game plug-in,What's even more bizarre is,I received a call from a game company,They don't need to be operated by anyone, The situation where most of the game content can be completed has protested. When it comes to NBsoft's situation, it's Wei Jianfeng's turn to be excited.
Xu Feng also smiled helplessly, "It turns out that the smart module can still be used like this, so let the computer play LOL, I don't know what level it will be?" ”
"That's not good, fans just let the smart module help them play those RPG games, you can fight monsters and upgrade for 24 hours or something, this kind of competitive game may not be possible." Wei Jianfeng said with a smile.
Xu Feng also smiled, he just said it casually.
"You also have to grasp it, although the intelligent central module has been developed, but we don't plan to sell it directly in the short term, so you have to control the expectations of your fans and not let them be frustrated. We can't help it, and sometimes it's not all a good thing if it's developing too fast. Xu Feng said seriously.
Wei Jianfeng nodded and responded: "Boss, don't worry, I have a number." I have one more thing to tell you. ”
"What's the matter?"
"There is news that Microsoft will have a new move in the near future, it is said that it has developed a new operating system, and wants to seize the European and American markets one step ahead of us, because we can't close it out here, giving them a chance, you see if you want to think about it. Is it completely open to the public? ”
Xu Feng frowned, he still just got such news, and hurriedly asked, "Is the news reliable?" ”
"It should be reliable. Niubility has been listed for a while, and now it has more than half of the domestic share, and Microsoft has not made any special moves, how can such a super group watch us grow all the time. It's normal to have such a move. Wei Jianfeng replied.
Xu Feng nodded thoughtfully. The development of NBsoft has always been smooth, although the strength of niubility is the key, but it will not make a leading company like Microsoft surrender immediately, it seems that it is quiet during this period to develop new products.
"Okay, I'll pay attention to this matter." Xu Feng nodded and said, at the same time, he also planned to have a chance to go to Jiang Changqing and ask what it meant.
Everything was going on in an orderly manner, but to Xu Feng's surprise. It hasn't been a few days since Wei Jianfeng told him about Microsoft, on August 1. A piece of news shocked the global internet industry.
Less than a year after Microsoft released WIN8, Microsoft held a product launch event today, at which Microsoft officially released a new generation of Windows products.
DIFFERENT FROM XP, DIFFERENT FROM WIN7 OR WIN8, THE CODE NAME OF THE NEW GENERATION OF WINDOWS PRODUCTS IS WINDOWSF, IN MICROSOFT'S OWN WORDS, THAT IS, THIS PRODUCT WILL BE A NEW PRODUCT LINE, AND THE MOST IMPORTANT MEANING OF THE CODE NAME "F" IS FUTURE, THAT IS, THE FUTURE.
All of a sudden, all the news in the world was dominated by Microsoft's move, and this conference was so sudden and so shocking, everyone knew that this was Microsoft's strongest response to NBsoft from Huaxia.
The reason why it has caused such a sensation is also because Microsoft has announced a decision that surprised everyone, that is, Microsoft's latest product, WindosF, will be completely free, that is, after the official launch of WindosF, anyone can download this new operating system directly from Microsoft's official website without paying a penny for it.
The whole world is boiling, especially the people outside the Huaxia region, have greatly praised Microsoft's move, and at the same time expressed their contempt for Huaxia NBsoft from the side, one is free for everyone to use, and the other is not allowed to use money, such differential treatment makes the vast majority of people resolutely stand on Microsoft's side.
Xu Feng was also surprised, although he knew in advance that Microsoft would release a new product, but he didn't expect this product to come so quickly.
Forget it quickly, Microsoft also played a free card, which was the most surprising to Xu Feng.
After all, the revenue point of the operating system is very limited, either you have to collect money from the users of the operating system, or you have to collect money from the software companies that provide system applications, and in addition to these two revenue points, no third party will pay for the operating system.
Now that Microsoft is exempt from user fees, it will have to charge software providers if it wants to generate revenue from a new system.
With a free strategy to occupy a large market share in the world, once such a vast platform is successfully laid, it is foreseeable that software providers will inevitably line up to give Microsoft money.
August 1st belongs to Microsoft, which even Xu Feng has to admit, but even August 2 became Microsoft's, which makes Xu Feng a little depressed.
Because on the second day of Microsoft's product launch, that is, on August 2nd, Microsoft's official website opened the download of the trial version of WindosF, before that, Microsoft has never acted so quickly, and the release of any Windos version in history has not made users feel it for the first time in such a short period of time, and this time Microsoft has changed, when the monopoly position is provoked. Microsoft has finally made a change, and this change has been applauded by Microsoft users.
Xu Feng couldn't sit still. Jiang Changqing was immediately found, and Jiang Changqing also knew that this matter was urgent, so he contacted the central government as soon as possible to inquire about the opening of the Niubility operating system.
Just when Xu Feng communicated with the official, the Internet was already boiling, and Microsoft's public trial did not exclude Huaxia, that is. Huaxia users can also easily download the latest WindosF from the Internet, and can also experience the latest Microsoft products for the first time like global users.
Various comparison videos have sprung up on the Internet like mushrooms after a rain.
At such a critical time. The niubility operating system did not disappoint Xu Feng, nor did it disappoint the people of China, no matter how to compare, whether in terms of performance or practicality. niubility operating system is better than WindosF operating system.
Huaxia users are happy. But foreign users are still dismissive of NBsoft, and don't say anything else, at least WindosF doesn't need money, although it sacrifices a little performance, but it saves a lot of money, and in this matter, they feel Microsoft's respect for them, at least more than NBsoft.
The most straightforward. It was the official statement of the island country on August 2, which said. No matter when Huaxia opens the niubility operating system, the island countries will continue to boycott!
As if the island country was officially stimulated, Huaxia officials also urgently held a press conference, and there is niubility, a cross-era operating system independently developed by Huaxia, which will be officially opened for global sales on August 5.
As the biggest boss of NBsoft, Xu Feng still saw Huaxia's official statement on the news, which means that before the official press conference, he, the big boss, did not receive a notice, Xu Feng could only shake his head helplessly, and then hurriedly asked Wei Jianfeng to prepare to deal with it.
In the face of NBsoft's relatively high price, after developing global sales, orders did not come in like a tide as Xu Feng imagined before, and Xu Feng could only reluctantly accept this, it was impossible for him to adjust the price, after all, tens of millions of sets had been sold at a high price in China.
Angry and speechless, Xu Feng pointed the finger at the island country, just after the official press conference of Huaxia, NBsoft also held its own press conference, the most unexpected thing at the press conference was that Mr. Wei Jianfeng, general manager of NBsoft, announced that all product lines of NBsoft now and in the future will be completely closed to the island country.
The so-called thoroughness, Wei Jianfeng also made a detailed explanation at the press conference, that is, regardless of nationality, as long as the network scope is in the island country, the niubility operating system will be automatically locked, even if Chinese citizens go to the island country on business, they will also face such a blockade.
"According to incomplete statistics, the current daily downloads of Microsoft's WindosF operating system have reached one million, while our total external sales are currently less than 100,000." In the NBsoft conference room, Wei Jianfeng said to Xu Feng in distress.
"Continue to pay attention, our response is already fast, this time Microsoft's preparation is indeed sufficient, we were caught off guard, but if they are complacent, it will be too early, which is better or worse will have to go through a long-term market test." Xu Feng's face was expressionless, but he was not worried in his words.
"Do you want to sell the intelligent central module in advance?" Wei Jianfeng proposed.
"Nope." Xu Feng shook his head and denied, "Let's not mess up, it's only been a few days, and our sales volume in China is very stable, there is no need to fight hard, what you have to do is to continue to publish comparison videos on foreign networks, so that they can see which one is the real future product." ”
"yes, I see." Although Wei Jianfeng was not as calm as Xu Feng, at this time, he still chose to believe Xu Feng.
Seeing Wei Jianfeng's distressed expression, Xu Feng couldn't help laughing and said: "Don't worry, these are just a small turmoil, although Microsoft's free policy is on fire, but let me tell you, this time Microsoft succeeded because it was free, and its failure will also be because it is free."
