Faced with the fall of the Chinese market, the European and American markets have been eroded.

In order to hold its own market, Microsoft cut the price of the system by half, priced at $50!

Bill Gates said at a conference: "Since the lin system was only released, it has developed rapidly. We must speed up the pace! We must develop better operations to put an end to it!"

"The indos95 system is our secret weapon. From now on, we will invest more manpower and material resources to develop the system! We will increase the number of system developers to 100,000, and we will develop indos95 at the fastest speed. In January next year, I hope that the indos95 logo of our operating system can be posted on Times Square!!!"

"The piracy in the Chinese market is rampant. Although we have not been able to make a profit in China, we must not let the system arbitrarily occupy our market." Bill Gates flashed a glimmer of light seriously, "Ballmer, you immediately organize manpower to establish Microsoft China technology in China. Center, to provide technical support for Chinese users! We want to provide better services to retain users!!!"

"Yes!" Steve Ballmer said solemnly.

Microsoft's strategy is to bind software to the system and use software to drive system sales.

Microsoft's more famous software is the database sql color rver and office software oie.

Microsoft's database software sql color rver can compete with Oracle orale database and ibm's db2 database. The oie office software is basically dominated by one party, unshakable. In 1990, Microsoft was completed and became the leading product in the word processing software sales market. By 1993, Microsoft put

And integrated in the software package, so that it can share data with each other, greatly convenient for users to use!

With the sql color rver and oie two great tools, Microsoft's operating system can also be invincible!

As a listed company, Microsoft must disclose any major decisions.

When they announced that they would set up a Microsoft China Technology Center in China, Henry understood that Microsoft did not give up the Chinese market!

It is an indisputable fact that the number of third-party software developers of the system is more than that of less. Moreover, Microsoft's two major software databases and office software oie can't keep up with it! The database is okay, with the support of orale company, and the office software, especially office software, has not yet a decent work!

However, Henry is not impatient, because he knows that there is a company that specializes in office software!

This company is Kingsoft Software!

Kingsoft's predecessor was Hong Kong Kingsoft. In 1988, the 24-year-old Qiu Bojun joined the company to develop the word processing system wps. Zhang Xuanlong, the boss of Hong Kong Kingsoft Corporation, knew heroes with his eyes, and then invested in Qiu Bojun to establish Beijing Kingsoft Software Corporation in 1994.

Kingsoft Software was officially established!

It is also because of this that there is no copyright dispute! Otherwise, the wpps developed by Qiu Bojun in Hong Kong Kingsoft should belong to Hong Kong Kingsoft, not Kingsoft!

After the release of &nbps, the market share once exceeded 90%, completely crushing Microsoft's oie, the main reason is that wps is. Since Microsoft does not abandon the Chinese market, Henry can only further enhance Lin's competitiveness!

&nbps is a good choice!

&nbps has been ups and downs for several times, first it was brilliant, then it became obscure, and then later, the "prism door" appeared, wps found an opportunity, revived, and became the government-designated office software!

Henry did some research on Kingsoft Software. After wps, he has been in obscurity. In fact, he was pitted by Microsoft! Microsoft's oie was hung and beaten, and it was just thinking about how to stand up. Therefore, Microsoft came to Kingsoft, hoping that Kingsoft would share the wps format with Microsoft and be compatible with each other. Microsoft said: "Look, everyone has office software. How about both parties sign an agreement and both parties read each other's files through the middle-level rtf format of their own software?"

What does it mean that the &nbps format is open to Microsoft? Means that Microsoft almost effortlessly seized the Chinese market. The user thought, "I used wps software before, and many files were in ps format, so I had to buy ps software. But now, since it can be opened with ord, why bother to buy ps software? Microsoft is not bundling oie Is there any office software, and it's still pirated!!!"

Microsoft found that it was impossible to sell genuine systems and software in China, China’s intellectual property laws were not perfect, and pirated copies were crowded. Therefore, it simply condoned piracy, and then killed other competitors, Kingsoft is one of them. And this time Microsoft's conspiracy almost caused Kingsoft to close down!

&nbps office software has never been heard since.

Henry decided that he wants to smash Microsoft's conspiracy, and he wants to invest in Kingsoft!

"Microsoft is conspiring and condoning piracy. I don't know how many Chinese software companies have been hacked. My stake in Kingsoft is really helping justice and saving Chinese private enterprises!!!"

Subsequently, Henry ordered people to apply for a shareholding request from Kingsoft Software, preparing to raise 10 million US dollars to hold 55% of Kingsoft's shares!

Ten million U.S. dollars was almost 100 million yuan at the time, shocking both Zhang Xuanlong and Qiu Bojun! They never thought that Kingsoft was so valuable! Ten million US dollars is only 55% of the equity, how can the company's total market value be close to 200 million yuan! ! !

Zhang Xuanlong was already in his heart. He had just established Kingsoft in early 1994. He invested 2 million yuan in Qiu Bojun at the time. He never thought that the company was just starting now. Someone wanted to invest, and the investment was nearly 100 million yuan but only 55 yuan. % Equity!

Zhang Xuanlong said: "Look, Bojun, agree. It raised 10 million US dollars. The speed of development of Kingsoft Software is far from what it is now. We can develop more software and expand channels!"

Qiu Bojun thought for a while and said: "The other party's company is called Hongnian Technology. Although it is a company registered in China, the parent company that controls this company is foreign capital. Williams Electronics, the world's richest man Henry · Williams’ company!"

"That's right." Zhang Xuanlong nodded: "Previously, Hongnian Technology launched Hongnian Computer and used the system. It seems that Henry Williams is preparing to enter the operating system. This time the investment in Kingsoft Software is considered to be in China. A layout of the!"

Zhang Xuanlong looked at Qiu Bojun and asked, "Do you want wps to go abroad? This may be an opportunity!"

"Go abroad?" Qiu Bojun was stunned for a moment. He never thought about this question, ps is office software, how to go abroad?

Zhang Xuanlong said: "We can develop wps English version, French version, etc., but without a promotion platform and allies, it is impossible to challenge Microsoft's position in the office software industry anyway!"

"You mean, Henry Williams can help us!" Qiu Bojun asked.

"Who else can anyone besides him?" Zhang Xuanlong laughed, "Henry Williams masters the lin system, and has strong financial and strength, so it is the easiest to challenge Microsoft!"

Qiu Bojun showed his heart, but there is still a trace of scruples. He said: "But 55% of the equity means we lose the controlling rights of the company!"

"Yes, but as the saying goes, there are gains and losses. To develop Kingsoft into an international company, we have to pay more! The system is bundled with oie office software, which poses a lot of pressure on us. Now, we must look for Backer!" Zhang Xuanlong said solemnly.

As an investor, Zhang Xuanlong naturally hopes that the bigger the company, the better, so that he can get higher returns. The controlling stake in the company is of little use to him. So I tried my best to persuade Qiu Bojun to agree to Hongnian Technology's shareholding!

Qiu Bojun thought for a while, and finally nodded.

After Qiu Bojun agreed, Hongnian Technology immediately signed a contract with Kingsoft Software and completed the transaction. After the financing of Kingsoft Software, the shareholding ratios of Hongnian Technology are 55%, Qiu Bojun 30%, and Zhang Xuanlong 15%.

Soon afterwards, Hongnian Technology and Kingsoft Corporation held a press conference. At the press conference, the two companies announced the financing and shareholding contracts, and then announced the next development plan: "wps will log in to the system and the software is free. However, indops software will still be charged! However, the ps files on indos are still available Normally open in the system!"

As soon as the news of the press conference came out, it immediately caused a sensation in China. The main reason for the sensation was that Hongnian Technology raised nearly 100 million yuan in Jinshan Software. At that time, 100 million yuan was equivalent to astronomical figures. The average people only had a few hundred yuan a month. How many years did they earn 100 million yuan?

Countless people's envious saliva remained.

When Microsoft got the news, it was very surprised. Without paying attention, Hongnian Technology actually won the Kingsoft Software Company, which occupies the largest share of China's office software market, thus posing a great challenge to Microsoft!

The &nbps software is free on the system, but it is charged on the indos system. They are forcing users to choose the system!

"Oh, ****!" Bill Gates couldn't help cursing when he heard the news!

Steve Ballmer said solemnly: "Bill, our office software oie must be released!"

"Well," Bill Gates nodded and said, "Next year, when indos95 is developed, the version of oie will be bundled into the system together!"

Ballmer smiled and said: "As long as we indos95 defeat the system, wps is not to be feared!"

Bill Gates heard the words, nodded, and laughed: "That's right! With the strong combination of our indos operating system bundled with oie office software, wps will have no chance of winning!"

Bill Gates personally participated in the development of indos95, he is full of confidence in this operating system! Indos95 has made great improvements on the original system, and it will have a more powerful, more stable and more practical desktop graphical user interface! In his previous life, Bill Gates did not hesitate to spend more than 300 million US dollars to promote indos95. It is conceivable that if Bill Gates had not had confidence in the indos95 operating system, how could he make such a crazy move? ? !

...

...

In the Chinese market, a system-to-system war is being staged.

Open source, piracy, the fight is inextricably difficult, and the momentum is like water and fire! However, due to the introduction of cheap computers by Hongnian Technology, the number of users of the system has increased. Microsoft is very helpless about this!

After Henry let Hongnian Technology take a stake in Kingsoft Software, he did not stop. The third-party software on the system is relatively small, and Hongnian Technology is going to win over or acquire more software companies!

At this time, in June, the World Cup football match has started, and the venue for this session is in the United States!

The espn sports TV channel of the abc broadcasting company won the broadcast rights of the 1994 football World Cup in South America~lightnovelpub.net~North America, and ATV won the broadcast station in Asia! At the same time, realork company has obtained the exclusive broadcasting right!

The European broadcasting rights were snatched by Murdoch's News Corporation!

After the match started, countless fans didn't expect that during the intermission of the game, the huge screen of the stadium actually advertised the two football games "fifa 1994" and "fifa football manager" for 20 seconds! 3D graphics, dynamic music, real game experience, detailed player data, etc. all arouse the interest of fans! Just as people were wondering which company made the game, a row of characters appeared at the end of the advertising screen.

"Firefly Game Company!"
