Chapter 292

Hewlett-Packard Company, this is the largest electronics and computer company in the United States, and even the world, and one of the top [-] companies in the world.

The company was founded in 1939.

In the entire computer industry, it is also an absolute veteran giant company. Facing such a powerful company, Jax dare not neglect in the slightest.

The door, behind the salesperson.

A middle-aged man in a suit came in and said with a smile: "I was wandering in a computer store, and I happened to see this gentleman demonstrating your "Origin" operating system, and I was deeply attracted at that time. .”

"I heard that you are the owners of this software, so you rushed over immediately. If the price is right, we plan to pre-install this system on every computer!"

Jax froze.

Hewlett-Packard is actually interested in our software?

This is a big order!
He forcibly suppressed his rapidly beating heart, walked around the desk, and stretched out his hand to the other party excitedly.

this moment.

The hands of the two were tightly held together.
Bill stepped into the company's gate happily.

He has enough reason to feel happy, because the operating system he designed has achieved unprecedented success!
Think back to the past, all kinds of past.

Bill couldn't help feeling a little sad.

In the earliest days, Microsoft was still a small ant, relying on the random tying of Big Blue to grow up with a purchased MS-DOS (disk operating system).

Since then, Bill has been ambitious and wants to design a window software independent of the DOS operating system.

From windows95, windows98, windows me, windows 2000, Microsoft has been working in this direction, and he has also achieved unprecedented success.

In the process, he miraculously became the richest man in the world.

Although later, because of the antitrust case, Microsoft suffered a heavy blow in the financial market.

But he was not discouraged.

Immediately concentrate key personnel and invest in the research and development of the next generation of products.

Up to now, windows XP is already the fifth generation operating system.

Whether it is security or interface, the function is also the strongest ever.

He hired a total of 46 software engineers, and even he himself had to go into battle when he was most nervous.

During the three-year development process of the XP system, six design supervisors and four product managers were dismissed by him because of unfavorable management and slow progress!

One can imagine the hardships involved in this design and the pressure he was under.

Even if he tried his best and kept making promises to the public.

But he has repeatedly broken his promise and gained weight.

In the end, due to his repeated bounces, Microsoft's operating system of this generation was ridiculed by the news media as: "Bill's big bubble"!
They also used bubble patterns in newspapers to describe this Windows software to distinguish it from hardware.

During those days, Bill really lived like a year, and he couldn't even sleep well at night.

Finally, the hard work paid off.

Version [-] of the Windows software is finally complete!

Under the promotion of huge advertising expenses, Windows XP was finally officially released before Christmas, and it was sold to the whole world at a speed of [-] sets per day!
Moreover, this sales record is still being broken!
Judging from this sales performance, by the middle of next year, it is very likely to break through the astonishing sales performance of 100 million sets!
The well-known computer magazine "PC Magazine" highly praised this operating system, and they wrote in a column: "When we are going to write the annual report for 2001, October 10th is undoubtedly a particularly memorable day. One day, Microsoft launched their fifth-generation operating system, Windows XP, and it heralded a new era for the personal computer!"

Other professional computer publications have also followed up and published a series of articles, full of praise for Windows XP.

A certain senior computer expert said that the XP system has completely broken away from DOS and created its own graphical interface.

This is an epoch-making initiative!

Facing the compliments from all walks of life, Bill was a little intoxicated.

Slightly drunk like fermented wine.

It makes people unable to extricate themselves.

As soon as windows XP comes out, it means that Microsoft once again overwhelms all operating systems and returns to the dominance of the PC industry!

Bill even walked a little lightly.

Therefore, when he walked into the company, he would greet the company employees with a happy face, until half an hour after he entered the office, he was still immersed in this wonderful atmosphere.

jingle bell~
At this moment, the phone on the desk rang, waking Bill up from his dream.

He smiled self-deprecatingly, the time of happiness is so short, before you get over it, you have to devote yourself to busy work again.

He reached for the phone: "Hello! This is Bill."

On the other end of the phone, no one spoke for a long time, and Bill gave a strange hello, and finally a man's deep voice came from the other side: "Bill, have you heard of a New York network technology company?"

"No! What's the matter? Are they forcing you to sell some network services? Do you want me to help you find someone and drive them away?" Bill said jokingly when he heard that he was a familiar editor of "PC Magazine".

however.

The editor snorted coldly and said, "Bill, I'm very glad to hear you talking to me in such a pleasant tone, but I think your good mood will stop here."

"I advise you to inquire about this company as soon as possible! They have launched a software that is very, very good!"

After speaking, he hung up the phone.

Bill stood where he was, listening to the busy tone from the phone, stunned for a moment, and suddenly felt a strong sense of fear in his heart.

The other party is a professional computer magazine editor, so naturally he will not target the target for no reason.

He said there was a piece of software, and he made a special call to tell himself that this piece of software was obviously an operating system software!
Those damned competitors are unwilling to fail!

They must have seen the huge profits in this market and are unwilling to be monopolized by us, so they endlessly launched various versions of software.

However, judging from their silent marketing actions without publicity, it must be a lack of confidence in this software.

If so, we can definitely defeat them!
At this time, Bill didn't have time to think about it. He immediately dialed the number of the marketing department. The phone rang for a long time, but no one answered it.

damn it!What the hell are those guys doing!

Are they all dazzled by victory?

God, we are improving, and the opponent is not sleeping too much!

Furious, Bill strode out of the office and went directly to the marketing department.

As soon as he got close to the door, he heard a fierce argument coming from inside. The people in the marketing department seemed to be arguing fiercely over something.

In the words, he vaguely heard the word "Origin".

Bill took a deep breath and pushed open the door of the marketing department. All the business personnel inside turned their heads, and the quarreling stopped abruptly.

The atmosphere in the office is clearly not right.

All the people have complex expressions.

That expression is hard to describe in words.

As soon as they saw the boss coming, everyone's eyes flickered, and they hesitated to speak, and secretly turned their eyes away.

So outrageous!
When our competitors are struggling to catch up with them, we are so disunified internally, so how should we deal with the pressing of our opponents? !

Bill's face was tense, and his sharp eyes swept over the employees' faces. After thinking for a while, he still didn't blame them directly, but eased his inner tension, and asked, "I heard that there is a network called New York Network. A technology company? Who knows about this company?"

shuh~
Everyone who looked down at the floor and the scenery outside the window all focused their eyes on Bill.

The panic in Bill's heart became more and more intense, but he has been through many storms, and as the world's richest man, he is very calm, and there is no trace of abnormality on his face.

"So, you've all heard of this company? Why didn't you tell me that they launched a piece of software, a Windows operating system?"

His eyes were fixed on the marketing manager.

The manager of the marketing department also looked back at him, with a flash of panic in his eyes, he immediately picked up a beautifully packaged carton from the table next to him, and handed it to Bill.

Bill opened the carton, which contained a floppy disk and a CD.

On the outer packaging of the disc, there is an "8" logo printed on it.

No, it is ∞.

There is also an English word "Origin" printed in color on it, which looks very elegant and generous against the blue background color.

Holding it in your hand, there is a sense of high-level rushing to your face.

At least the material is good.

Bill looked at the "8"-shaped sign and felt as if he had seen it somewhere.

He tried to recall it, and finally remembered that he once asked someone to import a batch of Sony LCD monitors from the island country. There was such a pattern next to the "Sony" logo on it!
So, the other party is also a company that makes LCD screens?
No!This graph is still familiar
Bill was a little annoyed and scratched his hair. He couldn't remember where he had seen this graphic before.

Intuition told him that things were not that simple.
