God-level Trader of Rebirth

"Patent. Haha" Chen Weidong laughed strangely. He seemed to be holding back something. After a while, he came back and said with a smile: "Since Mr. Bill already knows the fatal weakness of our software, then, your solution Dao, what else is it?"

Chen Weidong's performance made Bill uncertain about his attitude.

If Chen Weidong was furious at the crime, he could still laugh secretly and grasp the other party's emotions, but Chen Weidong smiled so weirdly. Unexpectedly, this made him elusive.

In the end, Bill gritted his teeth and said what he most wanted to achieve: "Actually, you can sell me this software, not just a finished product, but give us the source code to Microsoft. , we will definitely carry it forward!"

"Mr. Chen also doesn't want to let your excellent operating system be buried because no one uses it!"

"As for the price, it's easy to say, I can give you one hundred million, one billion, or even several billion, and I can pay it all!"

As long as they have the source code, Microsoft can design more advanced software, always ahead of other companies, and Microsoft's business empire will also be established!

After listening to his call, Chen Weidong held his belly and laughed endlessly.

There was a sullen look on Bill's face, and he stared at Chen Weidong with glaring eyes.

Of course he knows his request, he is too greedy, he has worked so hard for several years to make something, if he says sell it, he will sell it to you?
But Bill is also a person with a strong desire to control.

From the very beginning, he has firmly controlled Microsoft in his hands until it goes public, and the shareholding structure has not been dispersed, so we can know.

Similarly, he doesn't care about money, what he cares about is whether Microsoft will move forward in accordance with his ideas. He hopes that Microsoft will have an operating system that dominates the world instead of sharing it with others!

But now, seeing Chen Weidong's attitude, he knew that the other party would definitely not agree to this road.

He suppressed his sadness and said the second solution he thought of.

That is - cooperation!
"Since Mr. Chen is reluctant to sell the source code of this system, I can understand this feeling!"

Bill took a deep breath, didn't hide his regret at all, and tried to force himself, and then said:

"Then, why not cooperate with us, we have the patent right to use the Windows operating system, as long as we join forces, you will not be accused of patent infringement, and we, Microsoft, can continue to grow and develop. This is the most beneficial way .”

"And we, Microsoft, are good at designing and developing software according to the habits of European and American users. As long as you open the source code, we can develop software that European and American users recognize. In the long run, we will firmly control the operating system market in our hands!"

"In the end, I don't want us to open the source code." Chen Weidong sneered: "After the cooperation, you will have a legal basis, you can use and tamper with our programs at will, and then obtain the source code, waiting for you After mastering it, kick us away, do you really think that I am a big fool?"

Bill's face was flushed, and he argued resolutely: "How is this possible?! You are an insult! We will never do this! How could we steal your technology for ourselves?"

"Hmph, I don't know if it will be, but I know that business behavior cannot be trusted just because of your so-called "I promise", otherwise, this world would be too perfect!" Chen Weidong taunted mercilessly road.

Originally, he wanted to see if Bill was sincere, but his insistence on open source made him completely out of the conversation.

Chen Weidong didn't want to go around in circles with him anymore, and said directly: "Since you are talking about patents, let's discuss patents. Did you come up with the graphical interface of the computer first? Or was it Apple? Wrong! Xerox is the most It was designed first!"

"Even earlier, there were laboratories that had already proposed this concept!"

"In addition, the word "graphical interface" alone cannot become a patent. You must file a patent application for each graphics technology, or a similar graphical interface."

"Look at our Origin, all the designs and interface displays have nothing to do with your patents! We developed them independently! All patents, we have also passed the application!"

Bill smiled. It seemed that the other party had been irritated, so it was easy to handle. He smiled relaxedly and said, "Mr. Chen, whether it is an infringement or not is up to me, and the federal court has the final say!"

"Hahaha!" Chen Weidong laughed, but there was no smile on his face.

"So you're threatening me?"

"NO NO NO! Mr. Chen misunderstood. We Microsoft will never use this method to talk to you. We are just discussing the facts." Bill spread his hands and smiled slyly.

"Hehe." Chen Weidong leaned forward, beside him, and said in a low voice: "I believe that some associations in the United States will cause trouble for me in order to protect domestic software developers.

"However, I want to remind you that doing what you do will not bring any benefits. It will be a lose-lose situation. If I lose the lawsuit, I will return to China at most, and you Microsoft will completely disappear from this market. !"

Starting to threaten?

Bill couldn't help but laugh.

He can threaten Chen Weidong because any large company in the world wants to enter the European and American markets.

Well, this means that they are the masters!
But Chen Weidong threatened him, but it was useless, because in Europe and America, no one would favor a Huaxia company!
The island country in the 80s is so rampant!

In the end, he didn't get out of the American market in despair.

If he really had this kind of ability, Chen Weidong would have brought his company to the United States a long time ago, so why bother to beat around the bush and spend a lot of effort to attract him?
In this world, it is not because you are technologically advanced that you will definitely win!
Both Chen Jie and Qiao Zhiyong looked at Chen Weidong.

They had anticipated and discussed this situation, but they did not think of a good solution.

Perhaps, cooperation with Microsoft is the best way out.

They have sufficient backgrounds in the United States. Bill is a man with strong business capabilities. If they cooperate with him, both parties may grow rapidly.

However, they are also aware of the loss of source code that Chen Weidong is worried about.

In this case, all the weaknesses of Infinity's operating system will be exposed to Microsoft.

Once the other party turned against him, he would become meat on the chopping board and be slaughtered by others.

Bill's blatant threat made their teeth itch, and the initiative they had originally seemed to be disappearing little by little.

however.

at this time.

Chen Jie suddenly sneered and said, "Mr. Bill, do you really think that we have no ability to fight back at all?"

He really couldn't stand it anymore, this foreigner is so crazy.

Bill gestured to him to tell him the truth.

Chen Jie flicked open the lid of the metal lighter with his middle finger, lit a cigarette for himself, took a deep breath and said, "If, I mean if, we are kicked out of the United States, then I can be sure of one thing, our operating system , it is likely to be copied by someone!"

"Cottage? What do you mean?" Bill didn't understand what the word meant, and looked at him in amazement.

Qiao Zhiyong babbled and explained.

Chen Weidong also understood in an instant, smiled, and said darkly: "That's right! Shanzhai! And the other party's technology is probably very good. They can print a large number of our operating system software into CDs one by one!"

Bill's face changed drastically, he already understood what Chen Jie meant by "cottage".

Chen Weidong didn't care about this, he continued to speak, the slight chill revealed in his words made Bill feel a chill in this sweltering weather!
"These discs are likely to be brought to the United States from coastlines and land borders in various ways."

"You know, many people in this world like to do good deeds. They see that the operating system in the United States costs hundreds or even thousands of dollars, and many users have to save money and even go hungry to buy such an operating system. Expensive software, what a pity!"

"So, it is very likely that those users will find a beautifully packaged Origin from the mail box in front of their home. By the way, there will probably be detailed installation instructions inside!"

"There are also people who get up in the morning and are about to go out, and they will find a CD under the door!"

"When you are walking on the road, there may be hundreds of copies of "Origin" in the trash can on the side of the road!
"When you go to work in the company, you may find that there are stacks of "Origin" on the doorknob of the office, and you cannot open the door without taking it off."

"When you go out to do errands, what may be thrown from the hot air balloon will not be confetti, but hundreds of sheets of "Origin"!"

"At that time, you can just bend down and pick up a piece of "Origin". May I ask, would you still be willing to spend a few hundred dollars to buy a set of Windows XP?"
