Chapter 156: Bill Gates (11,000 Words Again Asking for a Monthly Pass)
The main content of the meeting of the soft board of directors is about the selection of the release time of INDOS.
Chen Zhaojun was qualified to participate in this meeting because he quickly absorbed the shares of Microsoft when Microsoft went public, and soon owned about 10 percent of Microsoft's shares, making him a member of Microsoft's board of directors. Moreover, Chen Zhaojun continued to absorb Microsoft's shares after that, and now he has about 12% of Microsoft's shares, becoming the third largest shareholder of Microsoft.
And after Microsoft went public, such meetings were a must. Although Gates, who owns 45 percent of the shares, will ultimately decide on the company's policies, the procedure will still need to be confirmed by the company's board of directors and then decided on the basis of the proportion of shares held.
In fact, Chen Zhaojun didn't need to participate in the meeting at all, he only needed to send a representative to participate in the meeting symbolically, after all, his share of shares did not play a role at all at the meeting. The invitation to the Microsoft Xun Council was only carried out in accordance with the legal procedures, and it had nothing to do with whether Chen Zhaojun came or not.
Chen Zhaojun was not going to attend the meeting before, in fact, he had already postponed this kind of meeting many times before. And this time it was mainly because Chen Zhaojun had already dealt with those things in the country, but the content of this meeting also attracted his attention.
The meeting was held in May, and after Chen Zhaojun arrived in the United States, he first attended Meizhi's wedding, and then spent more than ten days testing the latest version of Microsoft Indos 2.0 at that time, and listed a series of improvement plans in detail, so that he could have more chips in +.
。。。
American weddings don't pay as much attention to feng shui as Chinese people in terms of date, but most Americans have their own beliefs. Churches are generally helped in the selection of days. When Michi's notice returned, Michi's boyfriend, Louie, immediately began to make arrangements, and after learning that the third day was a good day, Louis praised God more than once.
Although American weddings do not have such a step, they are also very luxurious and solemn. In particular, Michichi's boyfriend, Louie, has two dollars of his own. Therefore, there is no skimpy in holding a wedding. Of course, no matter how luxurious and grand. is not as exaggerated as Chen Zhaojun, but it can attract the attention of reporters from TV stations and various newspapers.
It was two weddings in just one month, which made him a little tired of weddings, and although weddings in the East and West were different, he was ready to keep a low profile.
On the day of the wedding, Chen Zhaojun appeared in the church as a relative and friend of the woman. Michi immediately introduced him to his boyfriend, Louis: "Dear boss, this is my future husband. His name is Louie, you name him! "Louis is a relatively strong man, and his height of one meter and eight five is four or five centimeters taller than Chen Zhaojun, so that Chen Zhaojun, who was originally trained and much taller than in his previous life, is still very thin in front of him. Then. Meizhi introduced Chen Zhaojun to Louis again: "My dear, this is my boss, he is a countryman. His surname is Chen, you can call him Mr. Chen! ”
"Hello, nice to meet you!" Chen Zhaojun shook Louie's hand very politely, but was unexpectedly oppressed by the other party. Originally, it was nothing, but after that, the other party's strength became stronger and stronger, and he had to resist. Originally, he could calmly withdraw his hand from the ground, but he grew up in the army, and the nature of a soldier made it impossible for him to surrender without a fight.
After Louie met Chen Zhaojun, he finally knew that the boss that Michi often praised in his ear was actually a young man, and every time Michi praised him, his expression was full of admiration, which made Louie feel very uncomfortable. However, this was his own wedding, and he couldn't do anything too much, so he had to tentatively shake the other party's hand and show it to the other party. Prove to the other party that Michi's husband is a good husband. It's just that Louis found that his strength had no effect on Chen Zhaojun at all, and he didn't want to have any achievements, so he increased his strength a little. So, with such force, he found that Chen Zhaojun actually began to fight back. Driven by his competitive spirit, he had to work harder.
Chen Zhaojun was very depressed, he originally wanted to relax before work, but he ran into this incident. Although it was Louie's wedding, Louie went too far by doing so, so he had to fight back, and he didn't worry about anything because it was the other party's wedding. The most important thing is that Chen Zhaojun found that Louis in front of him was a little familiar, but he suddenly couldn't remember where he had seen it. For Louie, he had a very strange emotion, not anger or joy, but inexplicable, so he couldn't remember. Louis is demonstrating to Chen Zhaojun, and Chen Zhaojun is testing Louis to see if he can think of this forgotten man in any way.
So, the two got into a fight before the wedding.
Louis was more and more frightened, and he found that although Chen Zhaojun in front of him looked weaker than himself, his strength was not smaller than himself at all, but was even greater.
Chen Zhaojun is more relaxed, he is quite satisfied with the effect of his continuous training since he was a child, although he is not as good as those guys in the special first division, but it is more than enough to deal with ordinary people. This is still more than strength, if Louis chooses to duel, Chen Zhaojun is sure to put him down within three moves, and these three moves are enough to make him lie on the hospital bed for more than half a month or even longer, after all, Chen Zhaojun learned in the special first division is a trick to defeat the enemy, and it is already very well controlled to make him immortal in three moves.
The victory and defeat were soon decided, Louis tore his grin, rubbed his pinched hands in extreme pain, gave Chen Zhaojun a thumbs up with sweat on his forehead, and said: "Sure enough, he is worthy of being the boss of Meizhi, and he does have some ability." ”
Chen Zhaojun smiled awkwardly, and his heart blossomed: If the more the boss is stronger, will Bill Gates be a muscular hunk?
Later, under the coercion of Michi, Louis apologized to Chen Zhaojun very aggrieved. However, his aggrieved expression was made for Michi, and he still really admired Chen Zhaojun. Even. After their wedding, Louis came to Chen Zhaojun with a courteous face and asked him if he knew Chinese kung fu and if he could teach him something like that.
Chen Zhaojun was more interested in his identity, and Meizhi's introduction was more vague. just said that their family was rich and powerful, but they said that they were not as rich as Chen Zhaojun. There is no right from Chen Zhaojun's family, so as for what it is, he didn't tell him.
"Louie, what do you do, why do I think you look familiar? If you tell me
Teach you some basic kung fu! Chen Zhaojun said.
Louie smiled awkwardly. Directly skipped the first question and said, "Dear Chen." Maybe that's what your people say, fate! I'm more close to you, so you'll think I'm familiar! "For nationalization, Louis is still very studied.
"Oh! Well, if we have a fate in the future. I'll teach you! Chen Zhaojun knew that the other party didn't want to say, so he didn't ask again, he believed it. What you should know will definitely be known at the most suitable time, and now that others are unwilling to say, there is no need to ask more.
Louis also knew the meaning of Chen Zhaojun's words, so he didn't say anything more, got up and politely said goodbye and left.
。。。
After the wedding, after more than ten days of preparation, Chen Zhaojun rushed to the meeting place with the invitation in his hands.
The meeting was held in the office of the president of Microsoft, and because Chen Zhaojun had pushed back such meetings several times, Gates and his family had become accustomed to treating such meetings as private discussions between him and Paul. So this meeting was no exception, and they didn't make it very grand at all.
When Chen Zhaojun appeared in the president's office with the invitation letter, Gates and Paul were stunned, who would have thought that his symbolic invitation would really invite this mysterious shareholder who has been refusing to show up.
However, despite this, the meeting still had to go on as usual, but due to the appearance of Chen Zhaojun, the nature of the meeting changed slightly, and the venue was changed to the conference room.
"Dear Di Chen, it's a pleasure to meet you!" Gates politely shook Mr. Chen's hand. Gates also admires the people in front of him, but only admires his strategic vision. At that time, when Microsoft went public, when the stock price per share was so high, this young man quietly absorbed a lot of shares put on the market, which is obvious, either he is very optimistic about the appreciation of Microsoft shares, or he is very optimistic about the future trend of Microsoft company. And the young man's subsequent continued income from Microsoft stock clearly shows that he entered Microsoft stock not because of the appreciation of Microsoft stock, but because he has confidence in Microsoft Corporation. But on what basis this confidence is based, Gates cannot say. After all, at that time, companies with a market value like Microsoft were a lot of companies, with potential, and promising prospects, and there were many companies that chose Microsoft, which made Gates a little puzzled.
"Oh! You're welcome, Mr. Bill! Chen Zhaojun was quite respectful of this legendary figure, and he quickly replied in English while shaking hands.
"Hello, dear Chen! I'm Paul Allen, and it's a pleasure to meet you! After entering the conference room, Paul Allen said. Although Paul Allen withdrew from Microsoft's board of directors because of Hodgen's lymphoma, his stake makes him still Microsoft's second largest shareholder, and he still has the right to participate in such a general meeting.
After some greetings, Bill Gates said his idea, indos2.0 since the end of the release, has not been recognized by many users, Microsoft has been committed to improving the system, has launched indos6 and indos286 are based on indos2.0, and the development of indos3.0 has also come to an end, the main focus of this meeting is on the improvement of indos3.0 and the selection of release date.
In Chen Zhaojun's impression, INDOS3.0 should have been issued in 1990, and he couldn't say anything about the issuance date, and he didn't care about this, he cared about how to get more shares from Bill Gates and Paul Allen.
Since Paul Allen left the board of directors, he has begun to sell his shares in Microsoft one after another, but there were not many sales at the beginning, so Chen Zhaojun did not absorb much. Chen Zhaojun knew that eventually Paul Allen would reduce his holdings to about 15 percent, but this was a long and protracted battle, and Chen Zhaojun did not know when Paul Allen would choose to sell. I can only order to keep an eye on Microsoft shares, no matter how much each share is sold for, to buy it. And this meeting is an opportunity, an opportunity for Chen Zhaojun to become the third largest shareholder of Microsoft in the true sense.
The discussion between Bill Gates and Paul Allen has fully entered the state. They themselves are technically educated, and when it comes to improvement solutions. is also like a fish in water, and he didn't take Chen Zhaojun seriously at all. In their eyes, Chen Zhaojun is just a businessman, a businessman who knows how to speculate. Even if he understands technical things, he may not be able to say anything. Bill Gates is full of confidence in INDOS 3.0. He's pretty sure, even if the system isn't perfect. It can also occupy a large part of the market. His opinion is to launch the less perfect Indos 3.0 first, and then continue to improve on this basis, and then launch the S3.0 upgrade product. So. You can occupy the market more quickly and effectively, at least you can have a head start.
Chen Zhaojun doesn't know much about these. But he has experience with Indos products. In his previous life, in 92 he owned a second-hand computer of astonishing value, when +; The system is run under MS-DOS indos3, and indos3 released in the next 94 years. osNT3.1, indos95 released by 95, and a series of products released later, such as indos98/2000/XP/2003/vista, etc., Chen Zhaojun is very handy. With the experience of his previous life, Chen Zhaojun already has a great advantage, he only needs to list the advantages of the indos 3.11 series and sell them to Gates.
Chen Zhaojun didn't think about it, and said the idea of indos95, >; The market for the operating system running under MS-DOS is broader ++ This cannot realize the idea of indos95, although Chen Zhaojun was a study book in his previous life and could not write it, now it is just a layer of fantasy, it is better to indos3 and the subsequent indos3. It's good to say the advantages of the various improved versions. Moreover, indos95 envisages that Chen Zhaojun is ready to start at Microsoft
When operating the system, and then make a little more money at that time.
Chen Zhaojun has now completely become a speculative businessman in this way, telling Microsoft about its future development in advance, making it his own, and selling it back to Microsoft, just letting Microsoft's corresponding products be released some time in advance.
"Dear Mr. Bill, may I interject?" Chen Zhaojun quickly interjected after hearing Bill Gates say that INDOS 3.0 must be released quickly
Bill Gates was in the mood at this time, and he was very dissatisfied with this very rude interruption. However, after all, he is a technician, and he is only saying his thoughts about business. And this shareholders' meeting was held to see if there were any other opinions. For Chen Zhaojun, he has completely regarded him as a businessman, so his opinions on business may really help the company's development to a certain extent. So, he nodded politely and said, "Dear Chen, you have the right to speak!" ”
"Thank you, dear Mr. Bill!" Chen Zhaojun said: "Just now Mr. Bill expressed his opinion, thinking that indos 3.0 must be launched on the market as soon as possible, and Bill, this indos 3.0 is not perfect in everyone's opinion. Actually, I understand what Mr. Bill means, but I still have to say my opinion. Can our company make INDOS 3.0 more perfect before releasing it? In this way, it will be able to invade the market more perfectly, and will not lead to some users abandoning our company after using the imperfect indos 3.0. ”
"Dear Chen, I have taken into account what you said. But did you know how long it takes to make an operating system perfect? During this time, can you ensure that our market share will remain high? For example, I'm sure that in twenty years' time, we'll have a perfect operating system. But. After the launch, we found that the market was saturated, and users were used to other operating systems, and they would no longer choose an unfamiliar operating system, no matter how perfect it was. No matter how pretty. I don't want this to happen, I wonder if Mr. Chen understands? Chen Zhaojun's words made his status in Bill Gates' heart plummet. Originally, he could be regarded as a wise young man, but now, in Bill Gates's heart, he is a rich man who has nothing to do with money.
"Dear Bill is right, we must launch INDOS3.0 as soon as possible to get users used to us!" Paul Allen didn't say much, but he spoke. It is even more determined that what Chen Zhaojun said will become nonsense. None of the people on the scene held more than half of the shares, which means that no matter which two parties agree, the other party can only obey unconditionally. That's why Paul Allen said such nonsense at this time.
"Oh! Dear Bill, dear Paul, you all misunderstood me! I don't mean to stop you from rolling out Indos 3.0 as soon as possible. Chen Zhaojun also knew that his words would cause Bill Gates to be dissatisfied. So he didn't show any emotion, everything went according to plan: "I mean, INDOS 3.0 is still pushing according to the agreed time in the hope that the operating system can be more perfect." ”
Bill Gates smiled helplessly, his evaluation of Chen Zhaojun in his heart fell a few points again, he didn't understand anything in this sentence, it was obvious that he didn't even understand what he said at the meeting. However, he is also one of the major shareholders of the company, and in order to avoid unnecessary disputes, it is still necessary to explain to him: "Dear Mr. Chen, not only me, dear Paul, but also all the employees of our company, hope that INDOS3.0 can be more perfect in a short time. But it's not just something that can be done by wishing. Do you know? Since the release of indos 2.0, our company's development department has been working day and night on the development of indos 3.0, and I know very well that it is good to be able to develop to this extent. To make INDOS 3.0 perfect, it takes not only technology, but also time. Moreover, there is another point that I just mentioned, although we know that INDOS3.0 is not perfect, DOS3.0 user feedback is very important to us, and only their opinions can let us understand the problem more exactly and better improve the version. Don't you think it's the right thing to do? ”
"Oh! No, no, no! I think Mr. Beale misunderstood me again! Chen Zhaojun naturally knows what Bill Gates thinks in his heart, and he has great confidence in obtaining the benefits he wants from this meeting: "Could it be that Mr. Bill is so unconfident that INDOS3.0 will become more perfect before it is released?" ”
"Of course not! You don't know how difficult it is, so you can say something like that. As far as I know, the current progress, unless a miracle happens. Otherwise none of this is possible! Bill Gates has a trace of anger at Chen Zhaojun, a businessman who doesn't understand anything but wants to point fingers, and his tone of voice is no longer so polite.
"So... Zhaojun said, opened the public bag beside him, pulled out a piece from it, and pushed it in front of Bill Gates.
After hearing this, Bill Gates felt very strange, and Chen Zhaojun's tone seemed to be very confident. At this time, Bill Gates put away his contempt and picked up the piece very carefully, and when he saw the title on the first page of the portfolio, Bill Gates's face changed.
Paul Allen also saw this title on the side, his face changed slightly, and the eyes that looked at Chen Zhaojun were different. It was a shock mixed with skepticism. Because, the name of that file is: "Improvement plan about INDOS 2.0 and speculation and conception of INDOS 3.0". Paul Allen was shocked that from Chen Zhaojun's words just now, it could be heard that the piece given by this young businessman must be of great help to the company's upcoming operating system, and the suspicion was that if this young businessman really didn't understand anything, then the value of this piece of land was just a few pieces of paper. But. Paul Allen's heart wants more, this
Value, not just a few pieces of paper.
Bill Gates was thinking the same thing at this time, so he began to pray in his heart before opening the portfolio. I hope that Chen Zhaojun is not a businessman who does not learn and knows how to point fingers. After opening the portfolio. When he saw the contents of the file bag, Bill Gates's face became more and more shocked, and in the shock, there was also a lot of ecstasy.
Seeing Bill Gates' expression, Chen Zhaojun breathed a sigh of relief, although he had great confidence. But he still has a little worry about this piece. I'm worried that I don't know much about Microsoft's operating system, and what I've written is not the same thing at all. That's so many days of hard work in vain.
"Dear Chen, is it true that you wrote this directory? Is all of this really achievable? Bill Gates asked Chen Zhaojun excitedly.
"Yes, dear Mr. Bill. It's just a catalog, but I believe it's a catalog. Our company will be able to make INDOS3.0 more suitable for the market, do you think it is right? Chen Zhaojun asked.
"Yes, yes! That's right! Dear Chen, the value of your catalogue is too great, and I am now more confident in the launch of INDOS 3.0, thank you! Bill Gates was very Zheng:+ Chen Zhaojun, who stood up with him, shook hands. Then he turned to Paul Allen, carefully placed the piece of his hand on his table, and said, "Dear Paul, look, this is the most wonderful thing I have ever seen!" Dear Chen, this piece he gave describes in detail the broader development space of our indos 3.0, and we are confident that we will improve these things before the indos 3.0 comes out! ”
When Paul Allen picked it up and looked at it, Chen Zhaojun said, "Oh! Dear Bill, this is just a catalog, and it's not a miracle! ”
"What?" Bill Gates was even more shocked and hurriedly asked, "Dear Chen, do you have more detailed content in this catalog?" ”
Chen Zhaojun nodded and did not speak.
Bill Gates asked eagerly, "Dear Chen, can you tell me where you got this piece from?" And tell me, where is the details? We've got to get it, no matter how much it costs! "Bill Gates knows very well that if the other party can point out the characteristics of INDOS and some development ideas so clearly, it will definitely have the ability to help their opponents. If their opponents get this piece, it will be the biggest blow to Microsoft. Bill Gates has already risen in his heart to win over, after all, he is still a technician, and he still has a good impression of this kind of technician.
"Yes! Dear Bill, this piece is in my possession. Frankly, it took me a lot of time to write. It's just that this piece doesn't sell for money! Chen Zhaojun said straight to the point.
"Huh?" Bill Gates couldn't have imagined that the young man in front of him could have such great ability to make this thing out. And the conditions proposed by Chen Zhaojun also made Bill Gates very puzzled: "Dear Chen, what do you need?" ”
"We at Microsoft are not short of money, I know that. Dear Bill, you should see that I was able to buy so many shares of our company on a consistent basis, not just to make some money by speculating. Moreover, the fact that I was able to come up with such a piece shows more fully that I am not in it for money. I am optimistic about the prospects of our company, and I think it will be very promising with my help! Chen Zhaojun said this sentence very skillfully, for Microsoft, he already knew that the future was bright, but he said the phrase "with my help" when Microsoft had not yet reached that level, he was taking credit.
Bill Gates and Paul Allen, who had already finished reading the piece and were still shocked, both nodded and didn't say anything.
Chen Zhaojun continued: "Perhaps, with the efforts of dear Mr. Bill and Mr. Paul, our Microsoft company can also be brilliant. However, if I help, I don't think anyone will doubt that I can help, right? As he spoke, Chen Zhaojun changed his words and directly stated his purpose: "I know that dear Mr. Bill and Mr. Paul are both from technical backgrounds, and the shares of the company they own are also distributed according to the proportion of technology investment, and money is absolutely impossible to buy much." It was a coincidence that I became a major shareholder of Microsoft. But I believe. You're not going to turn down technology to take a stake in the land. So what I want to ask is, if you buy with this technology, how many shares can you buy? Of course, I will still pay according to the value of these shares. ”
After hearing Chen Zhaojun's purpose, Bill Gates hesitated. He is also bullish on Microsoft's prospects, if not by law. Then this Microsoft company will definitely not go public. In this regard, he still has some ideas. It's just that he is a technician, and he still has a good impression of his fellow technicians, not to mention that if Microsoft does not accept him. He could have chosen Microsoft's competitors to understand as he did. I believe that it is easy to crush Microsoft.
After careful thinking and a detailed exchange with Paul Allen, Bill Gates made up his mind and said to Chen Zhaojun instead: "Dear Chen, after our discussion, we decided. Each person will take 5% of the shares to buy the piece in your hand, as well as sign a technical assistance and confidentiality agreement with you. Don't know what you think? ”
After hearing these conditions, Chen Zhaojun almost jumped on the spot, now 10% of Microsoft's shares are completely within the scope of his ability to buy, but in another ten years, this money will reach a terrifying amount. Chen Zhaojun began to expect that each of them could come up with 2.5% of the shares, which was already very good, but he didn't expect that Bill Gates and they would be so generous. In fact, Chen Zhaojun has always looked at Bill Gates from the perspective of later generations, and after Microsoft became the industry leader, Bill Gates is too business-oriented. And now Bill Gates, more precisely, he is still a technician.
However, Chen Zhaojun will not reveal the thoughts in his heart. He pondered for a moment and said, "Mr. Bill, the condition you said is very reasonable. I'd love to know, though, what exactly do you mean by technical assistance and non-disclosure agreements? Chen Zhaojun naturally knows the general content of this, it shouldn't be too much, anyway, it won't restrict freedom, as long as ten percent of the shares are in hand, they can toss it around.
"Chen, although the value of your piece is definitely comparable
Ten shares, however, we prefer that you can help us in the future, of course, these are conditional, this is the main content of the technical assistance agreement. As for the confidentiality agreement, I believe you don't need me to say it, you know it. Bill Gates saw that this condition did not disgust Chen Zhaojun, and his heart was slightly relieved.
"Of course! Mr. Bill, rest assured in terms of confidentiality, since I am optimistic about the prospects of our Microso Division, I will never sell my shares at will, at least for the next twenty years. And there's no way I'm going to sell my interests. And you certainly don't think that the ideas I'm proposing now will be useful twenty years from now. So, it's no problem to sign this up. Chen Zhaojun said.
"Oh! Chen, happy cooperation! Bill Gates got up again and shook hands with Chen Zhaojun.
"Wait, Mr. Bill, I don't think I'm done yet!" After shaking hands, Chen Zhaojun said again.
His words shocked both Bill Gates and Paul Allen, and they were worried that he would open his mouth and make unacceptable conditions. After all, 10% of the shares are already the largest share they can give, and if they want more, I am afraid they will have to reluctantly abandon this piece of human beings.
Chen Zhaojun was also worried that if he offered too many conditions, would it make the two of them retreat, but he already had a mature idea before he came, and if he didn't mention it now, it would not be this price for a while: "Mr. Bill, I can make the biggest concession on the technical assistance agreement and give us the greatest help to Microsoft." However, I wish I could obtain the operating rights and pricing rights of our Microsoft company in China, not knowing Mr. Bill and Paula. Any comments? ”
"I see!" Bill Gates breathed a sigh of relief, the country does not have a few computers at all, and selling operating systems there is equivalent to selling combs to monks. Although this and the future is likely to grow hair, this process will definitely not be achieved in the short term: "Chen, I will sign the corresponding agreement with you, please rest assured!" However, I hope that what you just said will be the greatest compromise on the technical assistance agreement, and that is true! ”
"Of course! Mr. Bill! After Chen Zhaojun's conditions were negotiated, he was naturally very excited, and swore that Bill Gates made a guarantee. Anyway, these are not problems for him at all, he just needs to sort out his memories in advance when Microsoft is about to get involved in this field, and list some of the features and advantages of Microsoft's upcoming Windows products, so that they can avoid detours. The most important thing is that proposing in advance is not only as simple as making them less detours, but also that what they put forward is creativity, innovation, and revolution without anyone knowing. Anyway, Bill Gates also said that these are paid, and it's a big deal if you are not satisfied with the pay, and if you don't give it, you just don't give it. This meeting not only allowed Chen Zhaojun to own 24 percent of Microsoft's shares, but also successfully fought the first battle. Chen Zhaojun has great confidence in owning more Microsoft shares in the future.
。。。
In the next few days, there were several meetings between Bill Gates, Paul Allen and Chen Zhaojun, and the content of the meetings was mainly the signing of agreements on the transfer and sale of equity, technical assistance, technical confidentiality, and the transfer of technical parts.
In terms of equity transfer and sale, Bill Gates and Paul Allen each took out 5% of the shares to sell to Chen Zhaojun. Fortunately for Paul, he was selling some of his shares one after another, and for him, selling to someone is not selling, but selling to an individual is just an additional risk. And Bill Gates is cautious, he is very optimistic about the company's prospects, although he is not sure where he and others can go, but in exchange for five percent of the shares, it is inevitable that he is a little reluctant. However, if you can switch to the technical stuff of moving your company forward quickly, it's not worth it. And Chen Zhaojun, on the one hand, happily took the shares in his hand, and on the other hand, he took out the money in pain. Don't look at the 10 percent, but Microsoft's stock has been rising, and now it is already an astonishing price, and Chen Zhaojun has to work hard to eat it.
The main content of the signing of the technical assistance agreement is that Chen Zhaojun must give priority to Microsoft for technical assistance under the same value conditions. And because Chen Zhaojun is a shareholder of Microsoft, he should do his best to help in terms of technical assistance in his spare time, and unconditionally participate in the development, and only after the technology is formed, will it be sold to Microsoft according to the proportion of the technology.
In terms of technical confidentiality agreements, the main contents are not only some ideas put forward by Chen Zhaojun himself, but also some technical things of Microsoft itself are included in the technical confidentiality agreement, and each technology has signed a confidentiality agreement, and the validity period of the agreement is 20 years.
As for the transfer of technical parts, Chen Zhaojun and Microsoft Party A and Party B were transferred. After signing the agreement, Chen Zhaojun handed over the pieces that had been prepared in advance to Bill Gates.
Bill Gates, who saw the specific content, was even more ecstatic, and thanked Chen Zhaojun vigorously, expressing the importance of this idea to them very bluntly: "Dear Chen, I am really confident now! Originally, I was planning to launch INDOS 3.0 in May next year. However, you have advanced this date by at least five months, and I believe it will be available by the end of this year. Moreover, it is the most perfect indos 3.0. Oh! It is conceivable that when we indos 3.0 is postponed, the market share situation! It's the most wonderful thing ever! ”
"Dear Bill, please believe me, I am confident that Microsoft Chen Zhaojun is indeed very confident! It is estimated that at this time, even Bill Gates is not as clear as Chen Zhaojun about what Microsoft's development will become.
"I hope we have a good time working together!" Bill Gates reached out and shook hands with Chen Zhaojun again, this is the first time the two have not known how many times they have shaken hands.
"Thank you for your trust! Mr. Bill, I hope so, too! Chen Zhaojun said with a smile.
