Chapter 1541: Magician
"Daqian, this is murderous and punishable, he is going to ruin our office business!!" Many people said in a hurry.
The Office business accounts for about 12.2% of Microsoft's total profits, and it is an important business that Microsoft must not afford to lose.
And the strength of this WPS is not bad, it can almost be said that it is not weaker than Microsoft's office, it is conceivable that when the free WPS appears, all the manufacturers who have purchased office before, may not renew it in the coming year, and will switch to using free WPS, after all, there are not many state-owned enterprises in the United States, why not save money?
This Daqian launched WPS such an office software, and actually engaged in a free policy, which is obviously not intended to make money, but just wants to disgust Microsoft, to retaliate against Microsoft's restrictions on QQ.
But even if they know this, there is nothing the directors at the meeting can do, after all, they can prevent others from using free things?
"Can we restrict this WPS as much as we did before?" A director came up with the idea and thought that since Microsoft can use patches to restrict QQ, it can also use patches to restrict WPS.
And Bill Gates also seems to be quite moved, anyway, banning one is banned, and banning two is also banned, which doesn't seem to be a big deal.
"Never, never!" Microsoft's important help in politics, former New York Governor Kamead was the first to speak.
"Why?" Bill Gates asked with a frown?
"Chairman, do you wish the anti-monopoly investigation would start immediately?" Kamed hurriedly said, "The anti-monopoly lawsuit initiated by Daqian before has consumed a lot of my energy, and I have reluctantly asked the court to use the excuse of insufficient evidence to suppress it first. ”
"But if WPS is banned again this time, I'm afraid it won't take a week for the anti-monopoly investigation to officially begin!"
"Not really!" Bill Gates said with some disbelief, "The so-called 1 has 2, since the QQ thing is pressed, why can't WPS?" ”
"Because QQ did not infringe on the interests of the enterprise, but WPS did!" Kamede said helplessly, "Mr. Chairman, QQ is just an instant messaging software for personal use, even if it is banned, it is not a big deal, and the large number of people is a problem for individual users." ”
"But more than 80% of the genuine users of office software are enterprises. Now that you ban WPS that they can use for free, they will inevitably feel that their legitimate rights and interests have been violated, and Microsoft is shamelessly using monopoly rights to eliminate competitors for economic gain, so that they can continue to collect licensing fees from them, so as to accumulate a lot of dissatisfaction with Microsoft. ”
"I'm afraid that as long as Daqian launches an anti-monopoly investigation again, then many companies in the United States will respond, and when we want to use means to delay the investigation, it will be completely impossible!" Camed Path.
"......" Bill Gates was silent, he was not stupid, so he quickly understood that what Kamed said was right.
The competition between QQ and MSN is not too obvious, and many people will believe that Microsoft will cause damage to the security of the system. But Microsoft banned WPS because of this, which is quite obvious, and fools will understand that Microsoft is using its monopoly to eliminate competitors in order not to lose the interests of office.
At that time, I am afraid that enterprises and users all over the world will support Daqian's free WPS, and he Microsoft will also become a thousand people's fingers.
"Thank you, Mr. Kamede, for reminding me, I almost made a mistake!" Bill Gates hurriedly thanked him, and Kamed also smiled, saying that this was what he should say.
"In this way, wouldn't we just be able to watch Daqian take away our market and take away our profits?" A director said angrily, "Mr. Kamede, you say, how should we deal with Daqian?" ”。
"This ......" Kamede's expression darkened, and then he smiled bitterly, "I only talk about the benefits, as for the way, it's none of my business, you can consider it for yourself!" ”
"......" Everyone was speechless by Kamede's words, but they couldn't think of a way for a while.
"Chairman, there is a sentence that I don't know whether to say or not!" Suddenly, a director spoke.
"Oh! Our Mr. Magician actually spoke, please speak! Seeing the director who spoke, Bill Gates immediately laughed.
Because the director who spoke was the famous wizard Mr. Harry Potter.
Well, the wizard is just a joke for Harry Potter, after all, Harry Potter is now world-famous, and the first movie "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" swept the global market with a final box office of $1.2 billion, if there is no dark horse in the movies in November and December, it will basically lock in the global box office list in 98.
Then Harry Potter, the general manager of the United States Priority Foundation, which has the same name as the protagonist Harry Potter, naturally got the nickname of magician.
In fact, this is not just a nickname because of the same name, in the eyes of everyone, the real Harry Potter general manager is definitely worthy of the title of magician.
After all, his Rice Country First Foundation, under the leadership of Harry Potter, has invested in more than 20 companies, and the stocks of these companies have all soared.
Someone has made statistics, as of 98 years, the price of the shares purchased by the United States Priority Fund has increased by as much as 16 times compared with the price when they bought it, which can be called the king of investment funds, and the current total assets have reached the level of 168 billion US dollars, and they are qualified to break into the top 10 positions of all investment funds.
It is estimated that the SoftBank Fund before 2018 can be compared with the United States Priority Fund in terms of investment performance.
Later, a small pattern was even formed in the market, that is, the price of all stocks purchased by the United States Priority Foundation will inevitably rise sharply in the next month.
On the contrary, the shares sold by the United States Priority Foundation will also fall sharply.
Because there will be countless people who are staring at the operation of the Priority Foundation of the United States, and then follow them to operate.
Although they may not be as smart as Harry Potter, can't they learn the same?
Of course, some people say that this is a very dangerous behavior, for example, the people who followed Soros at the beginning have basically lost all their money now, this is the evil result of learning from the same, after all, as long as it is a human being, it will make mistakes after all.
However, this rule should not disappear until the Priority Foundation of the United States really makes a mistake.
And as the best fund manager in the world, how could Harry Potter let go of Microsoft's stock, although the United States Priority Foundation does not have many shares of Microsoft, but it also has 2.4%, and it is also eligible to join Microsoft's board of directors.
