Chapter 667: Bill's Choice

Seattle, USA, there is a private beach on the seaside of Seattle today, which is enclosed.

A team of professional security guards was responsible for checking all approaching vehicles and personnel, and anyone who did not have an invitation in hand was persuaded to leave the area.

A black SUV drove silently, and then, after the security personnel checked the invitations, continued towards the beach.

It wasn't until the SUV stopped in the heart of the private beach that a middle-aged white man with a brownish head stepped out of the car.

The beach had changed its appearance by this time, with flowers, fountains, statues, balloons, arches and star-adorned tables, men and women in suits and tuxedos, all it took to know at a glance that this was a lavish banquet prepared by Seattle's top contractors.

However, even on such a solemn occasion, the suit worn by this brown-and-gold white man who suddenly appeared had a messy feeling.

Raunchy, as if it were the man's natural aura.

Even so, everyone who saw him did not dare to show the slightest dissatisfaction. On the contrary, everyone who greeted him seemed flattered and had reverence in their eyes.

"Mr. Bill, I didn't expect you to come in person."

Yu Qiong is also in her thirties this year, and she is somewhat of an old girl in the Chinese circle. But this does not mean that the years have left any traces on her, but rather makes her perfect appearance, adding some maturity and charm.

"Wow. The CEO of Six Ears Software is married, why should I show up? ”

The person who spoke was none other than the famous Bill Gates, the creator of the Microsoft empire. Once the rich man of the world in history.

"Compared to Microsoft, Six Ears Software is just a small company." Yu Qiong is wearing a fantastic wedding dress, and I believe that countless girls are willing to marry an old man who is about to die for this wedding dress. But to her, it was like just a $5 T-shirt.

"Ms. Jones is too modest to say this, and if Mr. Zhou hears this, it will not be good news for me."

"Mr. Bill. Is my gas volume that small? ”

Zhou Shuo pulled Li Zhi over with a smile and took the initiative to stretch out his hand. Laughing: "Mr. Bill, it's been a long time. ”

"It's been ten years, and Mr. Zhou is not so young anymore." Bill shook hands with Zhou Shuo and said with some sighs.

"I remember how young you were. At the indos95 conference, your indos95 also had a blue screen on the spot! ”

"Zhou, your description is not accurate, at that time you still had 5% of Microsoft's shares, it should be said that it was our indos95!"

Zhou Shuo and Bill glanced at each other and laughed. But whether Bill really wants to laugh that much, I'm afraid no one knows.

The two of them just stood at the entrance and exchanged a few words, but the obviously noisy wedding scene cast all their eyes on. Li Zhi gently nudged Zhou Shuo, pointed around and said with a smile: "I'll help Yu Qiong." Go in with Mr. Bill. ”

"Let's go, Mr. Bill, and let's have a good talk."

"Just call me Bill. Otherwise, I'm going to have an opinion about me that week. ”

"Okay, Bill, I just made a delicious sturgeon, let's try it?"

"OK, I like sturgeon!"

After all, it was rude for everyone in the audience to stare at the two people, so everyone had a fresh start in the past. Then they all returned to the state they were in the beginning. It's just that everyone is a little absent-minded when they speak, and they are very focused on other places.

However, Zhou Shuo and Bill have long been accustomed to this situation. No one else took some food and drink from the table, and then took a plate and found a table and sat down.

"Six ears software has done well in the past few years, and you have a good subordinate in the enviable week."

"Don't forget, Bill, the Six Ears Software also has your share, it should be said that we have a good subordinate." Zhou Shuo returned the favor with his own way, and casually made a joke.

It's just a compliment to each other to kick things up and liven up the atmosphere. Sure enough, after echoing Zhou Shuo's laughter, Bill cut the sturgeon meat with a knife and said, "Netscape is now gone, Mark Anderson recently intends to sell his shares in Six Ears Software, what do you think?" ”

"What, Microsoft is interested in this part?" There was no superfluous expression on Zhou Shuo's face, as if he was talking about a transaction that involved more than a billion dollars, but the last sturgeon meat on a plate.

"I'm very interested, actually, I'm most interested in Rebirth Technology. Six-ear search and six-ear operating system, which is a threat to Microsoft. ”

Zhou Shuo pretended to be stupid: "That's just a mobile terminal system, it doesn't pose a threat to the desktop system, right?" ”

"But I'm interested in working with Microsoft, well, if it's limited to the United States."

The promotion of six-ear search in the United States has not been smooth, after all, this is Google's home base. If you can pull Microsoft as a snake, it will be a very good choice.

In recent years, Microsoft has really been like a fish in the throat and a man's back, and its growth and technical strength are clearly a copy of Netscape back then.

Google's Android system and Microsoft's Symbian system are competing for the operating system market of American smartphones at this time, and it is the time when it is difficult to solve. The two companies in the international market no longer do what he thinks, and that is the world of the six-ear system. The advantage of leading two or three years is not a joke, at this time, the six-ear system has accumulated a large number of applications, and it has gradually become the climate.

What, you say Samsung? Forget about it, South Korea is now actively applying to join the G77 to resist China's hegemony in the field of semiconductors.

Only the United States has become the last "pure land" for smart phones because of the ban on Pan Han Group. Now for this last piece of promised land flowing with milk and honey, Microsoft is desperately competing with Google.

Bill held up his fork and thought for a moment, nodded and said, "If we can cooperate like Six-Eared IM......"

The so-called six-ear IM method means that in China, the six-ear IM is operated by Rebirth Technology, while in the United States, it is under the responsibility of Microsoft. If you follow this model, it is equivalent to selling the North American ownership of Six Ears Search to Microsoft. Zhou Shuo shook his head when he heard this, and said: "My opinion is that Mark Anderson's shares, we and Microsoft can be one and a half, and still maintain the stability of the equity of Six Ears Software." ”

"But it's not fair to Microsoft!"

"What if I promise that the six-ear system will never enter the x86 architecture operating system market?" Zhou Shuo gently threw out the bait.

Bill was silent, a behemoth like the Pan Han Group did not enter the x86 market, this promise was indeed valuable. If Microsoft and Google and Pan Han Group play on both sides, the situation will be very unfavorable.

Even the software empire Microsoft does not dare to say that it will be able to win this war. Once Microsoft is locked out of the Internet market, the collapse of the empire is instantaneous.

"However, correspondingly, Microsoft should give up on entering the mobile terminal market."

"This ......"

Bill was entangled in his heart, with Microsoft's respect, it stands to reason that it has always been right to bully others, how can there be a reason to be squeezed like this.

But sitting opposite is Zhou Shuo, the head of the Pan Han Group, whether it is personal worth or the wealth in hand, the Pan Han Group and Microsoft are of the same magnitude or even more outstanding.

Microsoft's market capitalization may be hundreds of billions of dollars, but that is the value presented in the stock market, and maybe one or two bad news can steam tens or tens of billions of dollars.

But the wealth of the Pan Han Group is real, the factory, patented technology, market position and influence, even if there are dozens of unfavorable news, the Pan Han Group does not have to worry about the company will be abandoned by the times the next morning. After all, the software industry is a bit special, and compared with the industry, the social influence and anti-risk ability are weaker.

Zhou Shuo comfortably admired Bill's tangled expression, can't anyone see such a scenery?

After only ten years of struggle, Lao Tzu was able to eat sturgeon meat with Bill Gates and admire his tangled expression.

Thinking of this, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl.

"If Microsoft agrees, Rebirth Technology can sell a portion of Microsoft's shares, and promises a closer partnership between Six Ears and Indos."

Asking the other party to give up a market and promising not to touch the other party's home turf has always been a means used by Microsoft to bully other companies, but I didn't expect that one day it would appear on Microsoft.

However, this promise is really difficult for Microsoft to give up. Bill is not the kind of hesitant character, and he weighs the benefits and disadvantages in his heart, and immediately nods his head.

"A 25% stake in Rebirth Technology, $8o billion."

"$1oo billion, if Rebirth Technology is listed on the NASDAQ now, $100 billion is simply not enough."

Bill knew that Zhou Shuo was telling the truth, so he stretched out his hand and smiled reluctantly: "Deal." ”

……

When the wedding march sounded, Yu Qiong appeared under the flower arch in a wedding dress with a long back hem. Yu Shunshui's eyes smiled into a slit, and he walked over holding her arm.

Li Zhi gently leaned on Zhou Shuo's ear and asked, "I heard that Director Yu also matched you and Yu Qiong at the beginning, how is it, do you regret it?" ”

Zhou Shuo tilted his head and glanced at Li Zhi, and reached over to wrap his arms around her waist: "What is there to envy?" It is not easy for a person to concentrate on doing one thing well in his life. Yu Qiong......"

He thought about it for a while, and said with a smile: "That's just a misunderstanding on the part of Director Yu, you know me, I'm actually an idealist in my bones." I would rather have a perfect love than a chaotic private life. (To be continued)
