Chapter 296: I Want the Source Code
"Get out! Get out of here!"
Bill's hands and feet trembled, and in his hands, there were still a few floppy disks, which were not thrown, and the ammunition was very ample and ready for a second attack.
The marketing manager had already agreed with Claire, but Bill was the boss, so he had to come out and play the round.
"Bill, this network technology company, in fact, I don't think it needs to be taken too seriously!"
"Don't pay attention to it yet! Do we have to wait until they completely replace us and the whole company is unemployed?!" Bill glared at him.
The marketing manager said euphemistically: "I admit that this operating system is very well designed, and we can't catch up with them in this regard."
"However, I heard Claire say that the software they are releasing now is only a condensed version, and the staff of the other party told him to keep the purchase receipts, because the ultimate goal of the other party is to operate a network information and software service business!"
"They said that the network will be officially operational in half a year, and at that time, users who have already purchased it can use the bill to go to the other company's company and buy a content-rich home version system at an ultra-low price of $50."
"At the same time, the other party also said that for some new users, they will give away a free six-month trial period, and after half a year, users can choose to renew the software according to whether they are satisfied or not."
"These preferential measures show that they do not intend to compete with us in the operating system market!"
"Is there such a thing? They have already achieved such great results, and they actually choose to let go? Are they fools?" As soon as Bill heard what he said, he straightened up, and couldn't believe that a pie would fall from the sky and hit him on the head!
The marketing manager shrugged his shoulders and was puzzled: "They said that they didn't develop the software, they bought it, and four companies bought it at the same time."
"Therefore, if they want to involve the operating system, they don't have the strength, so they might as well concentrate on network information services."
"Oh! By the way, I heard that they bought this software from Huaxia!"
"Huaxia?" Bill's eyes rolled, and he immediately jumped up: "Send someone to Huaxia immediately, we have to cooperate with them!" Together, we can launch a new operating system!"
"What. Cooperation?"
The marketing manager was dumbfounded and didn't know how to answer.
If someone else's software has already taken such a big advantage, will you still be willing to cooperate with them?
However.
That's when it happened.
Bill burst out laughing, "I figured it out! So that's it! Because they are Huaxia companies, they can't get involved in the software market in the United States! This is the last resort to sell the precious operating system to several Internet companies in the United States, right! It must be so!"
"We must let them cooperate with us, we will make money together, and we will open the American market, let them provide the source code!" Source code, you have to get your hands on the source code!"
The young man named Claire quietly leaned over and whispered, "Boss, in fact, we don't have no chances at all, because this operating system has too high requirements for computer hardware, and we can completely occupy the low-end market."
Syllable!!
Another floppy disk, smashed in his face mercilessly!
"Low-end market?"
Bill gritted his teeth and roared loudly, "I don't want the low-end market! It's all, it's all, you know!"
"This operating system is the most powerful king ever! I'm going to get it, at all costs!"
"No matter how much money the Huaxia people make, I promise!"
He didn't drag mud and water.
Two days later, a United Airlines passenger plane slowly landed on the runway of Bao'an Airport in South China.
And it was Lin Zeju and Director Zhang who greeted him.
Bill is also the richest man in the world, and for this kind of big rich man, he is also the president of a famous foreign capital, and he is a special economic zone
Coming is extremely welcome, and it's best to let them make some investment here.
In that case, it will be difficult for South China's economy to take off.
Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen, I'm afraid they have to change their names!
However, when Bill first met Lin Zeju, a personable young man, he realized that this negotiation might not be easy.
As the best salesman in the world.
It's essential to do your homework ahead of time.
However, when he learned that this operating system was developed by an Internet company called Infinity, he was instantly shocked into a cold sweat.
After reading their shareholder information one after another, a heart sank directly to the bottom!
The other party is not short of money at all!
The combined value of several executives of the company alone is more than the wealth of the richest man in the world!
He has been in the United States for a long time, and for the last three years, he has led the team to be busy developing the fifth-generation operating system, and he knows less about some Internet news in Asia.
But some basic information, he still knows.
Infinity is not only a financial company, they are also the largest network and computer company in Asia, and their personal computers entered the American market, but they were quickly suppressed.
At the time, this incident caused quite a stir.
He even voted in favor of Microsoft, demanding the protection of America's domestic computer industry.
and the well-known Sony company, their ultra-thin LCD screen, sales are hot all over the world, the co-branded logo on it, the "8" symbol that turned.
It turned out to be them, too!
Hearing that this company was established less than five years ago, this made him even more shocked.
Landing in this mysterious Oriental Continent, Bill didn't have time to think about it, and the group was taken to the Foreign Guest Hotel by Director Zhang and entertained with a very high standard.
Of course, there are some unique Chinese people who are sophisticated.
In the face of the unusually warm hospitality of the locals, Bill couldn't resist it, so he could only say his intentions straight to the point
"What? They want to buy our source code? Haha, is this kind of request also spoken?"
Chen Weidong received an international call from Li Xi'er, and couldn't help laughing on the spot.
No matter how much money is given to him, it is impossible to make him open source code!
Chen Weidong's money is so much now that it can't be used up, and money has long lost its meaning to him!
What he is pursuing now is success and strength!
I want to make a difference!
Money is all fake, it is false, just like the United States is strong, as long as their citizens have money and the finance is developed enough, they can speculate the price of oil to a hundred dollars a barrel!
If they can't afford it, they can also push down the price of oil to ten dollars a barrel, or even a dollar a barrel!
If you really can't do it, grab it!
Anyway, strength is the only truth in this world!
Chen Weidong doesn't care about money, even if he has nothing, as long as he has a little surplus in his hand, he can use leverage in the financial market to earn unimaginable wealth for ordinary people.
Now, he wants standards!
It is the leader of the industry!
Let others only follow in his footsteps, beyond the reach of the dust!
What is Success? That's it!
If you don't have the power to control capital, no matter how much wealth you have, it's just a temporary storage for others.
Chen Weidong smiled and said to Li Xi'er on the phone, "The source code is absolutely not open! As for the software, it's okay to have as much as you want!"
"At this reserve price, continue to talk to Bill, don't worry, we are the seller, and we have time!"
He didn't dare to underestimate the president of Microsoft.
Bill Gates was able to stand out among many industry competitors with a purchased disk operating system and develop Microsoft to the point where it is today, which is enough to show how powerful he is!
If
It's not that he came to this world, the in operating system was born, Microsoft's, the absolute unification of the operating system!
It is precisely in this way that he asked the senior employees of the company to continue to negotiate with him, hoping that they can learn as much as possible from the successful people.
Chen Weidong put down the phone, discussed with Chen Jie and others, and prepared to drive to San Francisco, California.
There, there is a world-famous industrial area.
