On the seventh day, Jerry was leisurely playing a little tune and getting out of his latest Pontic Firebird sports car. He was in a very good mood this morning, and he had a friendly match with his wife, although he was a little late because of this, but who cares?

Now he can really be said to be in good spirits at happy events, and the spring breeze is proud. Without him, halfway through the game but no opponent is catching up, victory is already within reach, how can you not be happy?

As soon as he stepped into the company, a clerk ran over in a hurry.

"Hi Annie, did you burn my office again? Haha Jerry laughed loudly at Anne as she ran over.

"Hey, boss, I hope you're still in a good mood after reading this news." Anne handed him the printer paper in her hand.

Jerry raised his eyes and saw that in an instant, he felt five thunderbolts and his soul was in mourning, and he wailed: "This is not scientific! ”

I saw that what was written on the paper was a fax issued by Laco PET Printing Equipment Co., Ltd., informing him that the ERP customized software of Beichao Computer Technology Co., Ltd. had been completed and written, and he was invited to supervise the acceptance process.

"Bastard, what's going on!" Jerry crumbled the fax into a ball and tore it apart.

He ran to the program development project team and called Raymond.

"Hurry up, pack up, let's go to Laco Company. Damn it, is this TM a trick of the Chinese! ”

The two got into the car and sped away. In the afternoon, I arrived at the factory of Laco Company, and at this time, not only Johnson and Zhou Shuo and others were present, but also many business owners related to circuit printing also appeared here.

"Hi Mr. Jerry, you're here, we've all been waiting for you." Mr. Johnson greeted him from afar.

Jerry couldn't care about being polite at all, and when they met, he asked, "Damn, what the hell is this situation, it is impossible for the Northern Dynasty Company to complete the development so quickly." ”

Zhou Shuo also walked over at this time, and he was not angry at Jerry's swearing, and said with a smile: "Hehe, I'm very sorry Mr. Jerry, we have indeed completed the custom development of the software. ”

"This ......" Jerry struggled to turn his mind, unable to figure out how he had done it. Incoherently said: "It must be fake, fake!" ”

Zhou Shuo turned his head, shrugged his shoulders at Mr. Johnson, and said with an innocent expression: "It seems that Mr. Jerry has been stimulated a lot, let's do the software acceptance first." ”

The two were about to walk away, when Jerry suddenly came up and grabbed Zhou Shuo's clothes, and asked pitifully: "This is impossible, how did you do it, it can't be a Chinese spell, right?" ”

Zhou Shuo pursed his lips and said helplessly: "Okay, since Mr. Jerry wants to know the Tao so much, then I will reluctantly tell you......"

Before he could finish speaking, all the people around him pricked up their ears. This thing is indeed amazing, the people who travel in the mountains and rivers actually do things, do you want people who work hard to live?

I heard Zhou Shuo say: "Sir, have you heard of the Internet?" ”

"Internet?" Jerry was stunned and said, "Of course I've heard of it, not only have I heard of it, but I also use it a lot." ”

Zhou Shuo laughed and said, "Then do you know that in China, Internet access has been achieved this year?" ”

Jerry shook his head blankly, he is not a professional Internet technology news reporter, how can such a strange thing be known?

"Actually......" Zhou Shuo patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile, "I have hundreds of programmers in China, and as long as an email passes, they can work 24 hours a day." And their monthly salary is not even as much as your hourly ......."

Jerry stood stupidly in place, breaking his head, and he couldn't imagine that the subtle changes in a strange country tens of thousands of kilometers away turned out to be the real reason for his failure.

He looked at Zhou Shuo's smile and felt that this Chinese was like a shark. With just a slight smell of blood, he was able to find the other side of the ocean and make himself a big meal. Isn't his smile full of bloodlust and madness?

As for doubting his level of software skills, don't be kidding, even Microsoft hasn't found fault with it, what can he do!

Jerry collapsed on the ground in despair, and what awaited him was ten years of struggle and one day of loss......

In the expectant eyes of many business owners, the customized ERP system of Laco PET Printing Equipment Company began trial operation.

The company's operation information is fully collected, the inventory pressure is reduced by 30%, the production control is reflected to other departments in real time, and everyone in the whole system can get the corresponding information according to their own permissions......

When an ERP system is in operation, its advantages are so intuitively placed in front of business owners. This feeling of being in control of everything easily conquered them.

The tide of informatization and networking has just begun to reflect its power. Both for Jerry and for business owners.

"Mr. Zhou, I am the owner of Rachel Electronic Paste Company, and I hope you can develop an ERP system for my company, this is my business card."

"I'm a supplier of plastic films, and I would like to be able to use this ERP system as well......"

"I am a circuit design company, is there a design for our company that this ERP system is suitable for?"

Zhou Shuo was busy collecting business cards with one hand, and at the same time, he had to deal with these people's inquiries with his mouth. For a while, I wish there were eight mouths and twenty-four hands at once.

Looking over there, Jerry was gone. This is often the case in the software market, once the first-mover advantage is mastered, the latecomer often doesn't even have to do second.

In the case of Microsoft, as soon as Windows 95 came out, its position as the market leader was unshakeable for decades. Why? To put it bluntly, it's not a question of data format. If Linux can use Windows software, or even read data from Windows software documents, it will not make it a monopoly.

In the software market, it can often only be a zero-sum game. In the case of ERP system, as long as a wedge is driven into an industry, then later manufacturers must use the same system in order to meet the needs of the supply chain in order to achieve the purpose of information sharing. In the end, whoever enters first will be able to master the blockbuster market. The standard of the market is set by these systems with the largest number of users.

In the software industry, accumulation is often very important. The accumulation of resources, the accumulation of talents, and the accumulation of source code, once this advantage is established, it is difficult to catch up with the latecomer method. Among them, especially the accumulation of source code, which is the most suitable for enterprise customization software industry to form an advantage. Compared with the technical content and talent demand of commodity software, the entry frame of enterprise software is relatively low, but the profit is relatively meager because of the specificity of the sales object.

At this time, a software service provider with rich source code accumulation can rely on this resource advantage to improve the utilization rate of source code, shorten the development cycle, and then reduce costs and increase profits.

This is also the reason why Zhou Shuo dared to launch a $100,000 custom business and completed software development earlier than Berkebu. After all, compared with Raymond's short preparation time of less than a month, Zhou Shuo's Beichao Company already has the advantages of complete ERP software development experience and rich source code accumulation.

Under such conditions, victory is the only possibility.

After returning from Laco PET Printing Equipment Company, Zhou Shuo put a large pile of business cards into Pang Zhou's hands and rushed into the office.

Soon, the North Korean Computer Company entered a period of rapid expansion.

Batches of engineers and sales professionals were recruited and then sent to various manufacturing centers in the United States, New York, Chicago, Detroit, Pittsburgh, Silicon Valley, and ......

The figure of the Northern Dynasty is active everywhere.

Under the vigorous promotion of Microsoft and the personal demonstration of several Fortune 500 companies in the world, Zhou Shuo's low-price strategy quickly attracted a lot of attention. In a developed country like the United States, small businesses must chase high value-added industries if they want to survive the fierce competition. Such small and medium-sized high-tech enterprises pay more attention to lean production and agile manufacturing. Rapid turnaround and cost-conscious costs make low-cost custom ERP systems popular.

Orders increased at a slow but firm pace, and an entire floor of office space at the North Korean Computer Company gradually became crowded from empty to crowded......

“MerryChristmas！”

Pang Zhou wiped out the beer in his hand with a smile, and said excitedly: "Master, this is life." Thinking about my past days, it was a mess and a waste of life. ”

Zhou Shuo held the beer, but did not drink it. Looking at the sumptuous Christmas dinner, he was stunned for a while. Suddenly, he said: "I'm going to return to China, and I have a task to give you after I leave, I want you to go to Stanford University to find a treasure island man named Yang Zhiyuan, which will be our first venture capital project." ”

"Don't worry, Master, I've been waiting for this day for a long time!" Pang Zhou patted his chest and said, "However, I should also go back to see my parents." Speaking of which, I haven't seen the two of them for almost half a year. Master, will you go back first, and then I will return to China again? ”

Zhou Shuo shook his head and said, "When I return to China this time, I don't plan to come to the United States again in a short time." ”

"Huh?" Pang Zhou said puzzledly: "Master, now that our business is just on the right track, and we have earned a lot of dollars, why are you still staying in China?" Shall we have a career in the United States? ”

Zhou Shuo pinched the cup, drank the wine in one gulp, and said: "My heart has also been shaken, how good is it to be a rich man in the United States like now?" You don't have to endure hardship or face endless despair. ”

He put down the cup and said lonely: "It's a pity that I can't, when I think that our Chinese monthly salary is not as much as what these Americans earn in a day, when I think that our compatriots are still struggling to survive, and when I think that our electronics industry is being left farther and farther away by Americans......"

"I know we're too far from the Americans, but I still want to give it a try. Some people say that my ambitions in this life are a bit 'naïve', but wouldn't it be too sad if people still have to maintain a calculating heart when they are YY? In this virtual world, I have no scruples. Why do you have to live so tired? I never believe that my life can only be fulfilled through money and women. I don't believe it's unpleasant to do a great thing with a lot of people. At least in this world, I want to be a stubborn idealist. ”

"I'm not a virgin, I also have bad intentions, I just want to make this life more meaningful."

"I hope that the people who accompany me all the way will allow me to be so self-willed."

"In the words of Fa Ge: I haven't hit the road yet."

ps. Today's first day of strong scores, the results exceeded my expectations, I'm so happy, ha
