Seeing that they succeeded, and that they were two Chinese, many people were jealous and resentful about this.

They cursed Chen Weidong and Chen Jie's careers for falling, cursed them for being deceived by Bill, cheated out all their source code, and then kicked them away.

Wait until mid-May.

For the second time this year, Microsoft held a product launch event at the New York City Theater Center.

The first one to show is Microsoft's latest desktop operating system, "Windows +".

It was clear to all those who attended the conference that this was just a makeover of Microsoft's operating system for Infinity.

However, the reporter still found a trace of difference from its boot screen.

During the boot process, the screen that appears when loading data is no longer Microsoft's fluttering window pattern, but a "∞" symbol with a frame with gears and several antennae-like antennas.

It seems that "∞" is like a cornerstone, carrying window software to a more brilliant tomorrow.

Although such a logo is just a patchwork of the two companies' logos, at this moment, it vividly shows who is the real core in the operating system.

Bill probably also knows that it is difficult to convince the public to say that Infinity's "Origin" is his own product.

Therefore, he did not talk eloquently about the simplicity of the interface, layout, humanization, etc., but turned to one of the biggest features of this operating system, "multimedia"!

"Multimedia?"

Those media reporters were stunned when they heard this word.

They are not unfamiliar with this term.

Back in the mid-80s of the 20th century.

In 1984, Apple in the United States first introduced bitmap and other technologies on Macintosh machines, and proposed the user interface form of windows and icons, so that people bid farewell to the boring black and white display style of computers and began to move towards a new journey of colorful colors.

Besides.

The word multimedia was strongly recommended some time ago when those network technology companies secretly sold land.

However, most of those users, after buying back, find that their computers are a little unsmooth when running these programs.

The sound playback, played through the computer's own speakers, is like monotonous electronic music, which is a bit noisy.

The picture presentation is quite smooth.

But Flash playback, it can only be described by the word "scum".

At this time, most users' computers are mainly used for word processing, and the so-called display equipment is integrated with a display chip on the motherboard.

The external sound output is a "sound master card" launched by a Singapore innovative technology company in the early nineties of the last century, which can be regarded as a low and harsh sound mode for the computer to get rid of the speaker sound.

In the minds of computer users, the concept of multimedia does not yet exist.

Therefore, many people have a feeling of being fooled, but this software is so well designed that there are not many complaints.

Now, Microsoft wants to use this as a gimmick, is it still useful?

Seeing the confused looks of the reporters attending the product demonstration, Bill proudly asked people to demonstrate on the spot.

A staff member fed a disc into the ejected disc drive of the computer.

He moved the mouse, right-clicked "My Computer" to bring up the "Device Manager", found the optical drive, and copied the files from one of the directories to the computer's hard drive.

In fact, this process, before the press conference, can be completed.

But using Device Manager to manage the computer's individual drives, catalogs, was an unprecedented feat that Bill was reluctant to skip over and took advantage of the opportunity to demonstrate the performance to the reporters.

The reporters at the scene were very clear about his intentions.

It's just that this function is too convenient and lovely, so the reporters just chuckled a few times and didn't say anything more.

On a large projection screen, reporters can clearly see that the mouse clicks on the file and launches an audio player that comes with the operating system.

There are several tunes in it, ranging from black rap to rock by well-known bands, as well as some country music.

Through the external audio amplifier, beautiful music flows in the venue.

The reporters politely applauded and expressed their appreciation, but there was no more expression.

It's the same process with the animation, this is the latest "Cat and Mouse" episode, and the reporters watched it with relish, and most of their attention was devoted to the storyline.

As for the performance of the software, no one is hopeful.

Bill secretly laughed when he saw the performance of everyone in the audience.

This is Chen Weidong's cleverness, how could he not know what kind of backlash the effect of the demonstration will bring when compared with the effect of the user's actual use.

In fact, Chen Weidong has been prepared for a long time!

Bill was also a little glad that he didn't think the operating system was nothing more than just because he saw how powerful the multimedia technology was, unlike the salespeople boasted.

Instead, it was wise to choose cooperation.

Otherwise, when Infinity comes up with their killer feature, I'm afraid that they really won't have any room for maneuver.

When the cartoon was watched, the reporters laughed heartily, this cartoon is so funny, it should be put on the screen, not reduced to a demo screen because of the lack of computer performance.

They gathered around and had an enthusiastic discussion about the plot.

In the animation, Tom is wearing a black evening dress and is engrossed in playing "Hungarian Rhapsody No. 2".

Someone carefully found that in the animation, Tom's every note is stepped on the keys, not only the fingering is accurate, but the rhythm of the music can also be completely aligned.

Including all the professional movements involved, such as orchestra conducting, playing piano and dance music, you have to plan the whole rhythm of the music in the early stage to ensure that every frame can be played exactly right.

This is very valuable.

Without the slightest delay.

The product launch has become a meeting place.

Everyone wasn't interested in Microsoft's fried cold rice, and if it weren't for Microsoft's good public relations, many wouldn't even want to come.

Bill stood beside the computer with great self-cultivation, and waited until the reporters were almost finished, and realized that it was not polite to the host, and gradually quieted down, before saying with a smile: "How do you feel about multimedia?" Isn't it great? ”

"To be honest, I was also taken aback when I saw the demo screen for the first time, but after you used it yourself, did you feel that you couldn't achieve this demo effect at home?"

Journalists are human beings.

At first, they just felt that Microsoft was trying to tell the American people that this software would be Microsoft's product from now on, so they held this press conference.

Everyone is more polite, so they come to cheer.

But now, hearing Bill's meaningful words, many people immediately think that Bill must have another secret weapon as the finale of this product launch!

Bill smiled slightly, made a gesture, and asked the staff to walk out with two boxes in his hands.

Reporters rushed forward to see what it was, but the people in the back were blocked by the people in front of them, and it was difficult to see clearly.

But the people in the front row saw at a glance the infinity logo on the box, which is now widely known.

"Infinity again?" Some reporters were amazed.

As the most advanced country in the world now, the American people are proud, they have become accustomed to the fact that their country's products are the best.

All the people, learn from them.

The launch of the Origin operating system has caused many local people to complain.

Thankfully, Microsoft stepped up and sacrificed itself to abandon a few years of hard work and work with Infinity to master their core programs.

Now seeing that Infinity is still launching a steady stream of new products in an attempt to occupy the American market, those nationalists feel a fire in their hearts.

Bill knew before the press conference what the reaction would be to reporters.

He did not rush to explain, but first explained the role and performance of these two products in detail.
