The CF World Championship ended as scheduled.

At this time, Zhang Ning had a sufficient rest.

Taking a break, Zhang Ning participated in the press conference of CF's landing on Xbox 360 as a tourist.

Xbox360 is a game console developed by Microsoft specifically for gaming.

CF was originally developed for PC, but due to the popularity of CF, CF has recently developed a number of clients for major game consoles. Although Xbox360 does not have much market in China, however, in the world, Xbox360 is a game console manufacturer comparable to Nintendo, Sony, and Sega.

"It's deserted."

I don't know what the reason is.

It may be that China does not have much prospect in the game console area, and there are not many people at the entire press conference.

On the contrary, there are more journalists than some game console enthusiasts.

Still, think about it.

In this part of China's game industry, the original use of consoles such as red and white machines, that is, things like Xiaobawang.

However, the hardware of Xiaobawang is too different from that of game consoles.

Until 2000, it was possible for China to launch a game console business.

However, the sudden rise of online games has made game consoles cold again.

Not to mention Microsoft's Xbox 360, even if it is Nintendo's Wii series and Sony's PS3, there may not be too much market in China.

Zhang Ning, who didn't have much interest in game consoles, took a turn in the press conference and was about to leave.

It's just that behind him, a voice came from behind him, stopping Zhang Ning.

"Excuse me, is it Mr. Zhang Ning?"

Zhang Ning turned around, but saw a middle-aged man with a very high forehead and very attentive eyes looking at him.

"Tang Jun."

Unexpectedly, here, I actually saw the very famous Tang Jun in later generations.

Who is Tang Jun?

Although in later generations, because of the academic degree fraud, Tang Jun's reputation plummeted.

However, in any case, Tang Jun has always been called the emperor of Chinese workers.

In later generations, although he has been working for others, his income has been beyond the reach of the chairmen of some companies.

Even now, of course.

As the president of Microsoft China, Tang Jun has always been known as the first person in Microsoft China.

However, to be honest, Zhang Ning doesn't have much of an image of Tang Jun.

This may be that later generations dug up too much of Tang Jun's privacy, but Zhang Ning still replied politely, "Hello, I am." ”

"Sure enough, I didn't admit my mistake, Mr. Zhang, I really appreciate your Penguin Technology. Especially recently, your CF has become popular all over the world, which makes Tang admire someone even more. ”

Tang Jun was an excellent public relations master in later generations, and at this time, he was also very beautiful when he spoke.

"Where, where, no matter how popular our CF is, it can't compare to your Microsoft Windows operating system."

Speaking of the operating system, it is also a big regret for Zhang Ning.

In later generations, even after decades of development, China has never developed a decent operating system.

"It's nothing, Microsoft has been growing for decades to get to where it is today. You Penguin Technology, in a year or two, have such achievements, and in the future, you will definitely become a supergiant like Microsoft. It's rare to meet Mr. Zhang so coincidentally today, I want to talk to Mr. Zhang, by the way, I also have a few businesses, I want to talk to Mr. Zhang. ”

Tang Jun sent an invitation to Zhang Ning, but Zhang Ning did not refuse.

The two left the Xbox 360 press conference one after another and came to a coffee shop in Zhongguancun with a decent environment.

"Manager Tang, how do you feel about just returning to China this time?"

"It feels average."

Tang Jun shook his head, "You also know that there are too many pirated copies in China. We originally wanted to crack down on piracy, but for some reason, the Chinese side still cracked the activation code of our system. ”

"This ......"

Zhang Ning was a little embarrassed.

This piracy seems to be instigated by himself.

However, Zhang Ning will not admit it no matter how stupid he is, but said, "Actually, this is also a good thing for you Microsoft." You see, now your system has occupied the Chinese market all of a sudden. ”

"Mr. Zhang, I said so, but this kind of piracy has cost us tens of billions, or even hundreds of billions of profits."

"Hehe......"

Zhang Ning stretched out his hands and smiled hehehe, "This, I can't help you," he said with a look of helplessness.

"Mr. Zhang, I think you have a way."

"What's the solution?"

"In fact, it's very simple, as long as your search screen drops those pirated official websites, our piracy will naturally be solved."

"Manager Tang, I'm sorry, we don't have this authority."

This is, of course, a lie.

It is absolutely a matter of minutes for a search engine to screen down a website, and it is impossible to have no permissions.

The reason why I want to say this is only because Zhang Ning doesn't want to.

"Mr. Zhang, it's not that you Penguin Technology don't have permission, it's that you Penguin Technology don't want to."

Tang Jun looked at Zhang Ning with a smile.

"Manager Tang, what do you mean by that?"

Zhang Ning also looked at Tang Jun with a smile.

He suddenly felt that Tang Jun was looking for himself today, as if he had a purpose.

However, facing Tang Jun, who had been smiling at him, Zhang Ning was a little confused.

"Don't get me wrong, Mr. Zhang, I'm just saying it casually."

Seeing that Zhang Ning was a little wary of himself, Tang Jun slowed down and took a sip of coffee, "I think Penguin Technology is a very good company, you have your own instant messaging, you have your own search game, and you also develop your own game." It's great...... It's just that? ”

"Just what?"

"It's just, I think, is your Penguin Technology business too miscellaneous?"

"I don't think so."

"Mr. Zhang, you are in the game, of course you don't feel it. I look at it as an outsider, just like our Microsoft, as long as someone asks, what does our Microsoft do, everyone will say, make the operating system. Similarly, operating systems are our main business. However, you Penguin Technologies, although I also think that several of your businesses are very good. But, it seems, your Penguin Technology, it seems to do everything, and none of it is the main business. Sometimes, I feel worried about Mr. Zhang. With so much business, Mr. Zhang, will it be too tiring to manage? ”

"It's fine. Although we at Penguin Tech have a lot of business, it is still a small company. In itself, there is not much business. As long as we work hard to develop our own business, that's it. ”

Zhang Ning thought about it and guessed at the same time, what is this Tang Jun looking for himself?

"I think so."

Tang Jun said inexplicably, and suddenly, he changed the topic again, "Mr. Zhang, not long ago, Mr. Bill had a phone call with me, and he said that your CF is very good and can be added to Xbox360." Then, I introduced him to your penguin technology, and Mr. Bill was even more interested. He said he really wanted to see you if he could. However, as you know, Mr. Bill is so busy that he asked me to relay his greetings to you. ”

"Thank you."

"And, Mr. Bill gave me a word."

"What?"

"He said, you Penguin Tech are really awesome, and he's willing to leave their MSN to you, what do you think?"

"MSN to me?"

Zhang Ning began to feel incomprehensible, but after a while, he couldn't help but be shocked.

Oh my God, msn.

If nothing else, in the second half of this year, Microsoft's instant messaging product MSN will land in China.

Yes, it is the same product as QQ, and it will also be QQ's biggest competitor in the future, and he is going to appear.

No, in fact, MSN has been around for a long time.

Back before '98, Microsoft launched MSN.

However, at that time, Microsoft had been focusing on the operating system.

It wasn't until Windows 98, Windows 2000, and Windows XP systems were successful that they had extra time to focus on peripheral products connected to the operating system. Like instant messaging, like a player, like a browser, etc. Undoubtedly, because of the influence of ICQ, Microsoft has also seen the power of MSN.

If nothing else, in the future, Microsoft will make efforts, and MSN will become the world's No. 1 instant messaging product.

Even, in later generations, with the number of people online for the entire product, even QQ is incomparable.

With a sentence of handing over MSN to himself, Zhang Ning already had a cool breeze behind him.

"Mr. Bill means that he wants to buy our Penguin Technologies?"

There is only such an explanation.

Otherwise, did Zhang Ning really think that they were going to let Zhang Ning be in charge of MSN?

Think about Microsoft, as a supergiant, only he buys others, how have you ever seen someone else buy him.

"Haha, it is rumored that Mr. Zhang is a genius, and he is really powerful."

Tang Jun sighed.

It's just that such a tone is in Zhang Ning's ears, but it makes him very unhappy.

"In my opinion, if Microsoft joins forces with you penguins. I think that your QQ, even your search engines and games, can go international. Of course, you can rest assured that Mr. Bill assures you that as long as this acquisition is completed, he, including Microsoft, will never interfere in the management of MSN. I think, this is an opportunity for you penguins, Mr. Zhang, think about it? ”

"I'm sorry, we have no plans to sell Penguin Technology."

Zhang Ning directly refused.

"Mr. Zhang, don't refuse so quickly, this is not a bad thing for you Penguin Technology. Of course, if Mr. Zhang didn't think about it, he could go back and think about it. I think it's really an opportunity for you Penguin anyway. If you miss this time, there will be no next time. Moreover, if Mr. Zhang refuses, I am afraid that you will become a competitor of Microsoft. ”

Speaking of this, Tang Jun finally showed his arrogant expression.

It turned out that he had always been very modest to discuss with Zhang Ning, but now, he has been condescending.

In fact, Tang Jun has always been difficult to understand the email sent by the headquarters.

He thinks that if Microsoft wants to launch MSN, it will be launched directly, with their operating system as a platform, and he is afraid that Zhang Ning will not succeed.

However, the headquarters still thought twice, saying that in order to reduce trouble, Penguin Technology would be acquired.

This also made Tang Jun quite unhappy, this time he met Zhang Ning, and if he was not careful, that kind of arrogant character had already appeared.
