Because of Bill Gates's huge aura, as well as his invincible performance since his inception, and his amazing vision.

So although Bill Gates's words are basically the wise words for all directors, no one will doubt Bill Gates's judgment.

In fact, Bill Gates's judgment is not wrong, on the contrary, he has seen through the entire instant messaging software, even more thorough than Mayun, the creator of QQ.

At least Ma Yun hadn't figured out the winner-takes-all principle before 2015, otherwise he wouldn't have repeatedly tried to challenge Tencent's dominance in the social software market.

Of course, it is precisely because Ma Yun did not realize this that he later had the rise of DingTalk and successfully poached a large piece of meat from Tencent's market.

"Mr. Chairman, we have fully understood what you mean, QQ is our opponent, we must completely defeat him, and then occupy the entire instant messaging software market, right?" One of the directors asked.

"That's right!" Bill Gates nodded.

"Mr. Bill Gates, I don't have any doubts about your judgment, I just think that we probably don't need to fight a terrible war. The problems that can be solved with money in this world are not problems, can't we just buy QQ? Another director suggested, wondering if he remembered the mistake Microsoft had made in the 51 search, and then added, "No matter how much it is, as long as the price is less than $1 billion, we can buy it, if this market is really as important as you say!" ”

"Hmm!" In the face of the staggering offer of $1 billion, all the directors present just hummed, and no one raised any objections.

Well, but this is also normal, because the current Microsoft, just like Apple more than a decade later, has no place to use tens of billions of dollars of cash lying on the company's account, and it might as well be used to acquire potential companies.

If these directors were given the opportunity to go back in time, they would happily buy 51, even if the price was as high as $1 billion.

"It's not about the money!" Bill Gates listened to the directors' opinions with a wry smile on his face: "In fact, I sent an invitation to QQ to negotiate the acquisition a month ago. But the other party gave me a direct answer within 5 minutes, and the refusal was very crisp, without any room for negotiation! ”

"Hehe, Mr. Chairman, is your price too low, I think if you give him $1 billion, then the other party will definitely appear in front of you immediately, begging for our acquisition!" One of the directors laughed.

"No, I offered him $1.2 billion, but they still turned him down!!" Bill Gates' words left all the directors speechless as if they had been choked by the throats.

The purchase price of 1.2 billion US dollars, the other party actually refused, what kind of brain is this?

"Because the other party is not short of money at all, behind them is Daqian Group!" Bill Gates unravels the mystery.

"Daqian Group? This doesn't sound like a Mi national company! Hearing this name, all the directors on the scene were a little stupid, they had not heard of this name.

"This is a Chinese enterprise, and it is also the most successful enterprise in China, and it is the only private enterprise in China that has entered the world's top 100!" Bill Gates could only reluctantly give his directors a science popularization of the strength of Daqian Group.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the big sky mobile phones you use in your hands, the MP3s you put in your pockets, are now running around the streets, and even the Tesla with a full 10 parking spaces is parked downstairs in our headquarters, our children...... No, even the thousands of machines that we hold in our hands every day, as well as the golden little mouse that discharges, all belong to the Daqian Group."

"By the way, according to the information I got a month ago, in fact, Amazon and 51 Search have about 40% of the shares, which are in the hands of Daqian...... It's just that it's not in Daqian Group, but in the hands of Mr. Jia Yapeng, the chairman of Daqian Group! ”

"I even think that my qualifications as the richest man in the world are false, and the real richest man in the world should be this Mr. Jia Yapeng!" When Bill Gates said this, his face was not oily with an expression of envy.

After he noticed the QQ and 51 searches, and then began to conduct a detailed investigation, he became more and more jealous of the name Jia Yapeng.

"All in all, ladies and gentlemen, QQ is not alone, behind him, there is a giant enterprise whose capital is not inferior to that of our Microsoft. In their eyes, $1 billion is nothing, but QQ this represents the possibility of the next 51 searches, and they are impossible to sell! Bill Gates said.

"So what are we going to do?" One of the directors asked, a little dazed.

"Beat them, of course!" Bill Gates smiled slightly, "Use all our strength and resources, while QQ has not yet grown, we will directly pinch him to death, and then devour the market and customers that originally belonged to QQ!" ”

"As long as we can eat QQ, then there will be no second competitor in the market, and we can win it all, completely monopolizing the entrance to the entire network of instant messaging, just like we do on the browser. In this way, we will be able to grasp the user entrance of the entire network, and the future network will be all ours here! ”

Bill Gates's words made all the directors' little hearts thump, and then nodded their heads, and many directors said directly, "Mr. Chairman, what do you need us to do, just say it, we will fully support your decision!" ”

That's what Bill Gates wanted, and a soft smile like a scholar appeared on his face.

"We want to beat QQ, it's actually much easier than we thought. Although the instant messaging software is a door, this is at most the door of a house, but the key to the door of the entire manor where this house is located is in our hands! ”

"As long as we firmly control this door, all users who want to enter through QQ will be directly intercepted halfway to our door, then it will be fine!" Bill Gates Road.

"Mr. Chairman, what do you mean is that we want to restrict QQ at the system level!" At a time when many directors thought Bill Gates was talking in a fog, a smart director finally got it.

The so-called gate of the manor is Microsoft's Windows system.

No matter how awesome QQ is, it also needs to run in the windows system, and the Windows system is Microsoft's private property, so how Microsoft wants to toss QQ, it is a simple thing.

"But chairman, if we do it at the system level at this time, I'm afraid that the guys in the anti-monopoly investigation team won't let us go, and they are worried that they can't find evidence to toss us!" One of the directors said worriedly.

"There is no need to worry about this, in fact, there is no so-called anti-monopoly investigation at all, these are just the thoughts of some so-called big people, and they have not really been implemented yet! As long as our hands and feet are clean, we won't have any problems! ”

"The most important thing is that QQ is a Chinese enterprise, not a company in the United States, we destroy QQ, it is actually a good thing for the United States, I think our motherland will not oppose us at that time, but will give us support!"

"Mr. Kamede, this is your business, I hope you can talk to your friends at the party, we Microsoft is not doing this for ourselves, but for the interests of the entire United States in the Internet market!" Bill Gates said to a middle-aged, bald director.

This Mr. Camed is actually less than 1% of the Microsoft Group, but he can be on the board because he was the governor of New York and has unimaginable political resources in the country, which is why he can be on the board.

"Don't worry, so the parliamentarians are all acting for the interests of the United States!" Mr. Camed agreed with a smile.
