Rebirth of the Southern Drift Era

Chapter 364 Charity
"Hey! Headache, always tossing some unreliable things, isn't it good to earn your own money quietly? Why am I so hot-headed and want to be a hero?"

Thinking about the operating system, Liu Chang had a headache.The relationship here is too complicated, and there are many places to deal with. It is not a simple development of an operating system.

For example, on the other hand, pirated software provides a lot of convenience to domestic companies, lowers the barriers to entry, and enables these companies to produce things at a low cost.

With a little capital, you can pull people to work.Even a computer is enough, relying on pirated software to design various graphics to make money.

Therefore, for pirated software, the stakes in the middle cannot be summed up in a simple two sentences, and the situation inside is very complicated.

For example, software in the design industry and the film and television industry is very expensive, and it is normal for a set to be tens of thousands.If all of them are genuine, it will greatly increase the learning cost and operating cost of these industries, and eventually reduce the scale of the industry and even cause damage to downstream industries.

If there is no pirated Premiere, those young people will pay higher tuition fees.On the one hand, this will make some people give up learning and reduce their skills.On the other hand, the cost of learning skills and corporate office software will eventually push up industry prices and reduce industry scale.

As for design, it involves a lot of mechanical design and non-standard automation, and requires the use of software such as ProE, solidwork, UG, and CAD.These software are not thousands, but tens of thousands and hundreds of thousands.

Because of this, it is impossible for the vast number of small and medium-sized enterprises in China to use genuine copies, and they do not have all the funds.Small and medium-sized enterprises account for more than 99% of the total number of domestic enterprises and create more than 60% of the GDP.

Therefore, it is no exaggeration to say that these pirated software are silently playing a role in certain industries, carrying the development of the entire domestic economy.

From this perspective, pirated software may have impacted the domestic software industry, but it has greatly stimulated the development of domestic productivity, which seems to be a good thing.

On a larger scale, the exchange of technology and culture under globalization will benefit ordinary people. On the other hand, to some extent, independence will consume fiscal revenue and bring inconvenience to ordinary people, but it will benefit specific people. People in the industry bring benefits.

But from another point of view, piracy is more harmful to the domestic software industry.Without a market environment that protects intellectual property rights, those people will not be patriotic. As long as they have interests, no matter whether they are domestic or foreign, they will not escape their clutches.

Therefore, while pirating Microsoft and other foreign software, these people will not let go of domestic software - if they do not pirate domestic software, it must be because there is no need for a certain domestic software to be pirated.

Domestic software, even if its functions and performance are slightly inferior, if the market is charged, then domestic software can still obtain some users at a low price, so as to survive and develop.

However, if the best products in this market are all pirated and the price is zero, then domestic software will not be able to survive, and it will be difficult for a domestic software industry that lacks capital accumulation to grow.

One of the characteristics of the software industry is that R&D costs are high and investment is large, but marginal costs are extremely low.The so-called marginal cost is the cost of producing one more copy.

Developing software requires a lot of investment to produce the software design, but after copying and cracking a copy, you can always get benefits for only one CD.

Foreign software can make profits in foreign markets. In the domestic market, even if there is no income, since the research and development costs have been recovered in the European and American markets, what is consumed in the mainland market is only a few CDs, which will not hurt the bones.

However, domestic software that does not have a foreign market as a strategic depth has to rely on sales revenue from the domestic market.In order to fight against piracy, they even made a lot of extreme acts of resistance.

Among them, the most famous one is probably the "Jiangmin Logic Bomb" incident.At that time, there were many troubles about this matter, but many years later, this software company no longer exists.

It is estimated that many people are not very clear about the Jiangmin incident.At that time, due to the need to regularly upgrade the virus database, this made users dependent on software vendors, so the sales of anti-virus software were relatively good, and there was a lot of profit.

In order to prevent piracy, and even to prevent dealers from piracy, Jiangmin Company has placed a logic bomb in the software, once it finds that there is a cracking operation, it will lock the hard disk of the user's computer.

This act itself constituted the creation and dissemination of viruses, and Jiang Min was later punished by the public security organs for this.In the future, this corporate level will no longer exist.This is all about this incident, very helpless and depressing.

Of course, these did not affect Liu Chang's displeasure with Microsoft, because this company has too much influence.

Domestic piracy will only kill the entire domestic software industry, while foreign piracy has little impact on those companies, and even thinks that it has expanded their influence in this way.

In this way, many years later, foreign software companies still exist, while domestic software has made no progress.Once people do some blocking things, there is nothing to play.

"What are you nagging about?"

While thinking about these things, Han Xue knocked on the door and came in. Seeing Liu Chang nagging, she asked curiously.She rarely saw Liu Chang like this, let alone nagging without image.

"Being sued, the domestic president of Microsoft, sued the game company for using their pirated software, and now claims more than 1 million yuan."

The game company has Han Xue's shares, so Liu Chang will have to talk to Han Xue about this issue sooner or later.Now that Han Xue came to her office, she saved herself and went to her again.

"The game company has been sued?"

After hearing Liu Chang's words, Han Xue asked curiously.According to her impression, Liu Chang has always paid more attention to these things. How could such a problem arise?
"Well, Zhang Xue is not very clear about these things, so she made a small mistake. We didn't pay much attention to these things, and now we are caught in a loophole."

Liu Chang explained with a wry smile, he would not blame Zhang Xue, and it would be pointless to blame at this time.The most important question right now is how to deal with it.

Although I am very imposing and only want to spend 200 million to solve this problem, in fact this amount of money is definitely not enough.Liu Chang only wanted to use the first half of Lao Chen's previous life, but he didn't want to use the latter part, so he had to think of other ways.

"It's actually not difficult. I'll help you follow up on this later. It's useless for Microsoft to sue in Kyoto, because our company address is in Shanghai, but it's registered in the south. Play with him slowly, and then find a legal The loopholes are fine."

Han Xue has much more experience with this than Liu Chang. Liu Chang only knows about Lao Chen. What he doesn't know is that there was another Yadu before Lao Chen, who directly dismissed Microhard. There is nothing to do with taking silver.

Now the game company can say that it is misused, and there is a good reason.It's just because the game company's reputation is too big recently, and the profit is also good, so they are suddenly being stared at.

After this incident, Liu Chang felt that the game company could be cleaned up.If it weren't for the high density of internal employees, then Microsoft must have left a back door, which would be a very scary thing.

Think about how many people in China are currently using Microsoft's system. Once they really hide a back door somewhere, once it is activated, it will be a catastrophic blow.

It's a pity that many people don't want to think about this issue. They always pin their good hopes on others.

"Well, that's fine, I'll trouble you to deal with this matter. You should also pay attention to other companies, especially companies that are going to go public or have a good profit. I don't want to be stared at by a guy like a mad dog in the future."

Liu Chang didn't know what old Chen in his previous life was doing now.Because the game company he and Han Xue and Zhang Xue set up basically robbed Lao Chen of his business, it was much more difficult for Lao Chen to make something out of it.

Anyway, Liu Chang hasn't seen any news about Lao Chen in China, and he doesn't know what this guy is messing with.At least what is certain is that Lao Chen did not engage in Internet games.

"About our novel website, I think we are going to launch some activities recently to increase our popularity? There are too many novel websites popping up in China, and they have a lot of influence on us."

As the first electronic subscription novel website in China, and also the largest online novel website in China, Liu Chang's novel website is very popular now.

But I can't stand the scrutiny of wolves and tigers, and now a lot of related novel websites are coming out of the country.And here, the same is still the hardest hit area of ​​piracy.

There are too many of these places, and the popularity of novel websites is also greatly diverted.Han Xue didn't pay much attention to the novel website before, and it was the person in charge of the novel website who fed back this problem to her, and she felt the need to do something.

"Well, this is fine. Other novel websites don't care about them, so let's just do our own."

Liu Chang doesn't have much time to take care of the novel website. He is very busy.After waiting for a few years, he might go and have a look if he is free. Anyway, there is not much time in recent years.

The same goes for Yuanlai.com, which has become the largest dating website in China, but Liu Chang still doesn't have much interest.He has even been thinking about selling his shares to cash out after Yuanlai is listed on the Internet.

The biggest trick of this kind of marriage seeking website is that members provide offline services for a fee. Liu Chang doesn't want to make a fuss about himself, so it's best to quit early.

There is no such thing for novel websites, but they also have to face many problems.In recent years, the environment has been relaxed and there is no need to face various audits. It is not allowed to write anything below the neck, etc., so the development is also good.

Once the neck is tightened in the future, it will be difficult to deal with.Liu Chang didn't want to be stared at by relevant people for those matters on a large scale.

And compared to technology, Liu Chang will not talk about this kind of entertainment for the country.That kind of thing should be left to some people to worry about.

They are willing to regress in culture and to be caught up by others. That is their business, and it has nothing to do with Liu Chang.Moreover, there is no core technology in the cultural industry. If the master does not shine on the west, there is actually not much difference.

The pirated version of Liu Chang is not in the mood to investigate now, they just need to control their own internal problems, so that many problems can be avoided.

"Hey, Liu Chang, aren't you doing charity work across the country, donating to build schools, and providing interest-free loans to poor students. Can Fang and I join in and do our bit?"

Not many people know about Liu Chang's charity work.Now only Lao Zhang, Lao Huang, Liu Chang, Zhang Xue, and Liu Ye and his wife are doing it, and then Zhang Xue, Han Xue and the others know a little bit.

They set up a public welfare fund, and then organized people to go on site visits, contacted the local area, paid for the construction of schools in poor areas, and donated some things.This also includes assistance to poor families and poor villages.

This has been done for several years and has helped many families and places, but it has not been made public to the media.Even the people around him, Liu Chang didn't say much, keeping a low profile.

Only some departments learned from Huizhong's news that Liu Chang had done a lot of things, and some leaders had a better impression of this young man who made money and did not forget to do good deeds in a low-key manner.

Especially in the south, many leaders have a very good impression of Liu Chang, so Liu Chang's career has been doing very well these years.Of course, Liu Chang has a good vision, and some leaders have taken care of them intentionally or unintentionally.

"Yes, but why would you think of doing this? We have too much money and no place to spend it, so we do good things out of boredom. This will not bring us any fame."

Liu Chang didn't tell the truth, but he still had to ask what Han Xue meant.After all, they don't know how to publicize good deeds, and they don't want any benefits. They just do it in a very low-key manner.

"Isn't it that I'm about to give birth? The two of us want to do more good things to accumulate some blessings for the unborn guy. I know what you mean. We didn't think about any fame, just to accumulate some blessings for the children."

After listening to Liu Chang's words, Han Xue replied with a smile.Liu Chang has never publicized the charity funds in his hands, because he wants to do good deeds and do good deeds, instead of all kinds of high-profile attempts to gain fame and attention.

This is not a good thing for some people who want to do charity.They donated money, naturally thinking about gaining more fame for themselves, so Liu Chang lazy to invite people to participate together, just do it by himself.

The way is different, do not conspire with each other, each go their own way.

"Well, this is pretty good. You can go to Zhang Xue, she is in charge of this matter. You don't have to donate too much, just do what you can. As long as you do good deeds with sincerity, your family will be rewarded with good deeds in the future."

This is bullshit. Liu Chang doesn't see much of the so-called good that is rewarded with good and evil that is rewarded with evil.Moreover, in this era of money-seeking, many people have lost their conscience, and have not seen any retribution.
