(Thank you for the support of the book friend "Rondo Dance Clutch" again, bow!) There's another chapter around 8 p.m.! ）

Although Microsoft's global conference has ended, the influence of this conference is still fermenting, some industry veterans gave a very high evaluation of Microsoft's sudden launch of these three software, everyone generally believes that Microsoft will firmly occupy the absolute leader position in the software industry for a long time, and even the overall computer manufacturer has to look at Microsoft's face to live.

Such a statement was quickly confirmed, less than four hours after the end of the press conference, IBM and Microsoft issued a joint statement, IBM's PC business will all use the Microsoft operating system, the two sides are still holding talks on the desktop computer business, I believe it will not be long before the results will come out.

Followed by Compaq, as one of the leading manufacturers in the PC industry, Compaq will naturally not turn a blind eye to this press conference, following IBM, Compaq reached a strategic cooperation agreement with Microsoft as soon as possible, and all computers produced by Compaq in the future, regardless of desktop and PC, will only use the Microsoft Windows operating system.

Then, Apple, Hewlett-Packard, Dell and other companies also signed similar agreements with Microsoft, and since then, the large companies that occupy more than 90 percent of the entire computer industry have all cooperated with Microsoft, and Microsoft's stock has risen and closed almost as soon as it opens, and it has been the case for more than half a month!

As the largest shareholder of Microsoft, Gates's net worth has increased dozens of times during this time, and he is striding from a billionaire to a billionaire!

The whole world has been swept by the Microsoft wave, people have uninstalled their original operating system, and instead purchased and installed the Windows operating system, since then the computer is no longer just an office tool, but really into thousands of entertainment equipment, you can watch movies, read books, chat, any questions you don't understand, you can find answers through the Microsoft search engine!

Microsoft's software sales have exploded – no, it's a volcanic explosion! Some media even joked: "Microsoft's software sales are growing at a rocket-like rate, and in just 15 days, more than 20 software manufacturers in the United States have announced their closure or reorganization, but what makes people feel strange is that there are no protests and demonstrations by unemployed people on the streets, because they have just found a new owner - Microsoft's explosive expansion has accommodated them very well, and this small company that used to have only a few hundred people has now become a behemoth with more than 30,000 employees!" ”

Some media are discussing how far Microsoft's expansion will stop, while others are focusing on the mysterious X, according to Microsoft's current turnover estimates, Microsoft's net profit is likely to exceed $5 billion by the end of the year, and the violence in the software industry can be seen! After all, as long as the software is developed, it can be copied and sold non-stop, and the production cost in the later stage is almost negligible compared to the early development costs, so that the mysterious X will receive at least more than 500 million US dollars in dividends, which is equivalent to the turnover of a large company in a year!

Immediately after, CNN created such a news topic: "Guess who X is?" ”

This topic is really eye-catching, many people have a great interest in it, everyone uses Microsoft's just launched chat software, in the Internet world set off a wave of conjecture, all kinds of speculation dizzying, some people say that X does not actually exist, he is just a product of Microsoft to create news topics; Some people say that X is God, and only God can develop these epoch-making software; Some people say that X is actually an intelligent system that originated in the cyber world, and it does so to promote the development of the human computer industry and create a better living environment for itself.

Of course, these speculations are all wrong, but some of them are very close to the truth, and even one of them is the truth! At first, some people speculated that this X was actually a master hacker, and the reason why he didn't want to show up was to keep his identity as a hacker, and this person also gave a very reasonable explanation: "If he is Kevin, will he dare to appear?" Now the FBI is still arresting him! ”

Perhaps it was this one who provided the inspiration, and another gave this answer: "I think X should be the hacker who successfully hacked into the North American Air Defense Command not long ago, his code name is 'God', I think only God has this strength, right?" ”

Many people are dismissive of this person's statement, after all, it has not been confirmed, you can say whatever you want, but there is one person who laughed after seeing this speculation, this person is Feng Xiaotian, he is the real X!

Time back to more than 20 days ago, when Feng Xiaotian and Gates completed the first transaction, Gates asked him what vulnerabilities there were in the Windows system, Feng Xiaotian naturally would not tell this information in vain, after some bargaining, the two sides finally traded at a price of $200,000 per vulnerability, Feng Xiaotian pointed out the thirteen vulnerabilities in the Windows system, but four of them have been discovered and patched by Microsoft, so the number of transactions is nine, and Feng Xiaotian has gained 1.8 million US dollars, With the addition of the five million he earned before, he already has $6.8 million in deposits in Swiss banks.

Feng Xiaotian brought a considerable shock to Gates, in the eyes of Gates, Feng Xiaotian is definitely a programming master, the two then chatted, Feng Xiaotian had just made a lot of money, he was in a very happy mood, and when chatting with Gates, he said a lot of his own ideas, such as search engines and chat software.

Every time Feng Xiaotian wants to search for something on the Internet, he will go through a long time of screening, and he also needs to use hacking techniques to communicate with someone on the Internet, which makes him feel very inconvenient, so he put forward his idea: If you develop an efficient search software, will this greatly reduce people's search time on the Internet? If a chat software is developed, can it be possible to achieve true zero-distance communication in the online world?

When Gates heard these two ideas, he immediately realized the huge business value, he has always focused on the operating system, rarely considered service software, after hearing Feng Xiaotian's idea, he immediately invited Feng Xiaotian to help with the development work, and promised to buy related software at a high price.

Of course, Microsoft itself can also develop these two kinds of software, but this requires a lot of manpower and material resources, if the development cycle is too long, it is likely to be taken first by others, Gates thinks that since Feng Xiaotian can put forward such an idea, maybe he already has the relevant program framework in his hand, let him help develop it should be able to play a natural effect, right?
