"Mr. Lin, why are you so sure that I will definitely agree to your conditions?" Bill was very curious about Lin Zheng's self-confidence, and asked specifically when he signed the contract.

Lin Zheng was very curious why he took the plane back and then rushed back by plane, so he couldn't let the person in charge here sign a contract with him? I wondered if Bill had stayed in Dallas at all, and deliberately used this way to hang his appetite, thinking that since the other party was a big contributor, it was also appropriate to compliment, "Because I heard that Mr. Bill wants to make 'Chicago' as perfect as possible, and in my opinion, this is my chance." ”

Sure enough, I don't wear a lot of sycophants, listen to Lin Zheng say this, Bill. Gates burst out laughing, "That's right, I'm going to make Chicago the most perfect desktop operating system ever, and we're going to do whatever it takes." ”

"If that's the case......" Lin Zheng suddenly grinned, "I have some improvements to 'Chicago' here, I wonder if you are interested in Mr. Bill?" ”

Bill was stunned for a moment, and suddenly smiled: he was once again put into a bag by Lin Zheng.

Although Lin Zheng was put into the bag again, Bill was not very annoyed, the bugs provided by Lin Zheng to Microsoft played a very important role in Microsoft's subsequent improvement of indos95, especially the kernel bug provided by Lin Zheng. In Gates' view, a single vulnerability is worth millions of dollars, and Lin Zheng's total asking price of more than $1ooo is not high.

Since this is a fair and reasonable transaction price, even if it is installed by Lin Zheng again, why not? The arrogance of the world's rich and skilled masters is fully reflected at this moment. "As long as your construction is effective, Microsoft will pay a price that satisfies you."

Hearing Bill say this, Lin Zheng nodded. He pulled out a few pieces of paper from his bag and handed them over, saying, "That's only part of it." ”

The world's wealth must be the pride and responsibility of the world's wealth, Lin Zheng is not worried about Bill. Gates will turn his face and deny it after seeing his improvements, but for the sake of conservatism, it doesn't hurt to be more careful...... Americans have always had little discipline.

Just a cursory glance, Bill. Gates' face changed. He has always felt that "Chicago" is not perfect, but he has never been able to think of what is not perfect enough. Seeing Lin Zheng's two pieces of paper, Bill instantly determined: That's right, this is what he needs to improve on "Chicago", although some changes will inevitably involve changes to the bottom and core of "Chicago". There may be a delay in time to market. But it can be used on the next desktop operating system after "Chicago".

Looking at Lin Zheng's posture, it seemed that there were many similar improvements in his bag, and Bill, who had always felt that he was sitting firmly in the Diaoyutai, was finally not calm, "How much do you want?" ”

"Mr. Bill, how much do you think it's worth your price?" Lin Zheng slyly kicked the ball back.

Taking a deep breath, Bill closed his eyes and thought for a moment, "How many similar improvements are there in total?" ”

"1o categories, a total of more than 2oo." Lin Zheng also did not hide that these improvements are the improvements of indos98 to indos95, which is the most classic desktop computer operating system. Compared with indos95, it is a qualitative improvement in terms of user experience.

"1O categories, more than 2oo in total?" Bill gasped. Could it be that the "Chicago" system, which I am so proud of, is so bad?

Lin Zheng nodded, "I can guarantee that every penny you spend is worth it." ”

No one saw that Bill's hand under the table was shaking, Lin Zheng's words brought him a huge shock, and he also believed that what Lin Zheng said could never be false, yesterday he had already gotten a much deeper understanding of Lin Zheng than before, this kid is also a person with an identity, not a liar, and the person who can make Texas Instruments rest assured to do business with him still has some credit.

"Microsoft can't come up with too much cash right now, these are ......" he patted the two pieces of paper on the table, as if he was gently stroking his lover's cheek, "5oo cash, plus 5oo worth of Microsoft stock." ”

$5oo worth of Microsoft stock? Lin Zheng's eyeballs almost fell: Bill. Does Gates even know what he's talking about?

$5oo is not much compared to the total number of shares of Microsoft currently circulating in the market, but if you remember correctly, it seems that in the two months since the sale of Indos95, Microsoft's stock price has risen three times more than the sale price! This means that the $5oo dollar of Microsoft stock in his hand will immediately become $150000 at the beginning of '96, and if you wait until indos98 is sold for a period of time before realizing it, hehe......

Every reborn person knows how valuable Microsoft's stock is, and can buy $5oo worth of Microsoft stock before indos95 sells, if there is no great pursuit in this life, this $5oo dollar alone is enough to ensure a good life for a lifetime, as an executive officer and technical officer of Microsoft Corporation, Lin Zheng does not believe that Bill. Gates would not know the value of the $5oo stock.

"Yes, I know that if nothing else, Microsoft's stock will at least double after the 'Chicago' cloth," Bill nodded in the face of the surprised Lin Zheng, "but this part of the stock is taken out of my personal shares, you can't sell it in the market, and if you want to sell it in the future, you can only sell it to me...... Of course, I will also buy back at the market price...... I have only one request for this batch of shares: it cannot be sold for 2 years, and this batch of shares must be resold to me before 2ooo years. ”

Awesome! I didn't understand Bill yet. Why did Gates do this, Lin Zheng, now Bill. Gates only admired it, he knew that this stock worth 5oo dollars would inevitably create at least 3 times the value of this number for himself in the future, but he still did not hesitate to take it out at this time, in order to ensure that Microsoft's cash flow would not have problems before the "Chicago" cloth...... Maybe a few years later, I will need to spend several times the price to buy back this batch of shares, but it is not a problem for me at that time.

It is worthy of being rich in the world, and it is true that those who do not seek a lifetime are not enough to seek a moment. Gates Lin Zheng was completely convinced, he instantly changed his mind, and took out the other improvements in his bag, "I think, the value of my construction is probably worth more money...... With these suggestions, I think Microsoft can save at least $200 million in research costs when opening the next generation of desktop operating systems. ”

Bill. Gates glanced at Lin Zheng a little strangely, but he did not hesitate in his hand: since Lin Zheng took the initiative to send the information over, he categorically had no reason to push it out.

Is it really okay? Tan Na silently gestured to Lin Zheng with a lip shape, she was a little worried, in case Bill. What should Gates do if he doesn't admit it after reading these materials? Improving this thing is only worth money before it is spoken, and it is not worth much after it is spoken.

Lin Zheng shook his head slightly, signaling that she didn't have to worry, the dignified world rich naturally had the courage to be world rich, if he didn't even have this responsibility, he would not become the world's rich, and dominate the world's rich position for so many years.

Despite the fact that Bill. Gates quickly skimmed through the information at a glance, but despite this, it still took him half an hour to read all the information. When he finished reading all the information, he couldn't help but sigh, "Lin, it's a pity that you don't do software...... You're wrong, with these materials, Microsoft will save not 200 million yuan by opening the next generation operating system, but at least 400 million. ”

Tan Na immediately covered her mouth, just thought that Lin Zheng's saving of 200 million dollars in research expenses was already exaggerated, but I didn't expect Bill. Gates gave such a high evaluation, it turned out to be 400 million!

"I'm a software engineer myself," Lin Zheng said with a smile, "but I do a 1inux system, and I also have a dabbling in single-chip microcomputer systems." ”

"No wonder," Hearing Lin Zheng say this, Bill nodded with relief, he was a little strange before how Lin Zheng could be so proficient in software as a businessman, if it is mainly focused on 1inux system and single-chip microcomputer system, then it can be understood, and his question will have an answer, "You are right, these stocks with a price of $5oo dollars in cash and $5oo dollars are indeed low, how about Microsoft shares with $5oo dollars plus $1ooo dollars?" ”

"Deal!"

Listening to Lin Zheng's promise so happily, Bill. Gates suddenly looked at Lin Zheng a few more times: on the premise that he admitted that the information would save Microsoft at least $400 million in research costs, the young man from China would still agree to his own conditions...... It seems that his confidence in Microsoft is also not ordinary!

"So you seem to be at a loss?"

"Indeed," Lin Zheng nodded, he didn't think that he had saved $400 million for Microsoft, Microsoft had to give all the $400 million to himself, and he should have snickered if he could cut $100 million from it. Gates planned to compensate himself, but Lin Zheng was not polite, "I heard that Microsoft is developing a handheld computer system, and after you succeed in researching, how about handing it over to my factory for OEM?" ”

Hearing Lin Zheng say this, Bill almost couldn't breathe with a smile, "Okay! Deal! After my handheld computer is successfully developed, as long as your factory can meet my OEM requirements, this business will be yours. (To be continued......)
