Rebirth of the Wild Age

Bill Gates' schedule was very full, not only attending various meetings, but also meeting with Chinese officials, scholars and entrepreneurs, and then being invited to give lectures at universities such as Shanghai Jiaotong University.

Even, the organizer specially gave him a group project called "Developer's Road to Success". Bill Gates gave a lecture on the subject. Many software companies, including Kingsoft, as well as representatives of famous university professors and college students, were invited to participate in the discussion or attend the audience.

"The next ten years will be in the digital age. At that time, people only need an email to communicate, they will not be disturbed by other calls and letters, and they can even give up phone calls and letters altogether. Now many young people don’t know what a record is, and ten years later, Young people in China will ask: “What is a CD and what is a VCD?” Because all the content of film and television is digitized, the computer will become as thin as a piece of paper. People can carry their computer with them and watch their favorite movies and movies anywhere. Television. Nowadays, many people are afraid of computers because they are too cumbersome to use. In fact, don’t be afraid. In the future, computers can realize human-computer interaction through voice and handwriting..."

The listeners felt that they had benefited a lot, and they all acted very excited.

Song Weiyang also predicted the future digital life, but it sounds like a science fiction story. Bill Gates' speech is obviously much more "earthly", and they all start from the actual technology.

Only Song Weiyang is a little puzzled. Since Bill Gates firmly believes that in ten years, interpersonal communication can be realized through voice, and computers will become as thin as paper. At this time, video call technology is already available. Why not use a paper-thin computer to make a video call directly? But it does not mean that in the future, people can abandon phone calls and letters and only contact them via e-mail.

In fact, Bill Gates’s point of view is very clear. In the future, computers are small, practical, portable, and can call, work, shop, watch videos, listen to music, and play games. This is equivalent to describing smart phones. But he still has one string left to catch up, always distinguishing the mobile phone from the computer, and believes that e-mail can dominate all communication methods.

Song Weiyang did not join in the fun, because this group subject belonged to the software industry, and he was participating in another group discussion (about the survival and development of enterprises after China's entry into the WTO).

Just as Song Weiyang was discussing the issue in real earnest, Bill Gates was bragging and promoting sales everywhere.

Except for the promotion of Microsoft's Shenghai Software Research Institute from an Asian level to a world-class center, Bill Gates' other remarks are nonsense.

For example, Bill Gates announced that Microsoft will launch the Architect2000 advanced software research and development supervisor training program, and will cooperate with 11 software development parks in China to train 2,000 software architects for China. When the news came out, domestic media and college students cheered and compared it to the "MBA program in China's software industry."

It's all nonsense, more than half of the 11 software development parks that Bill Gates said are the sites of the liar Song Ruhua. Microsoft has never investigated the facts. Song Ruhua said so much that he thought it was really good, and he took the empty shell parks seriously.

"Mr. Song, you are working on the EMBA project of Taurus Business School, and now Mr. Bill Gates is also going to work on the MBA project in the software industry," a domestic reporter caught Song Weiyang for an interview. "Do you think Bill Gates can succeed? This is for China What is the impact of the software industry?"

Song Weiyang walked out of the venue and said with a smile: "I hope Bill Gates can fail."

Every celebrity was followed by many reporters, and Song Weiyang also had a few. The reporters all felt very surprised when he heard him say this. One of them asked: "Why do you want Bill Gates to fail? This project is reduced to 2000 top software architects in China, which is to promote China's software industry. A good thing for big development."

"Do you really don't understand, or pretend to understand?" Song Weiyang stopped and asked.

"Isn't it?" the reporter said.

Song Weiyang laughed and said, "Do you think Bill Gates is Bethune? Selfless dedication to help the Chinese train 2,000 software architects? Not only China, but the global computer software industry has been semi-monopolized by Microsoft. Last year, it also received EU approval. Hundreds of millions of dollars in fines. Microsoft is now in China to do this, nothing more than to bring together the most promising software talents in China, and cultivate the top batch to attract subordinates, and the remaining second- and third-rate show that they are selfless. In this way, Microsoft can control both the Chinese software market and Chinese software talents, and we are sold to help people pay. At the same time, Microsoft can also use this cooperation plan to outsource many minor development projects and let Chinese software talents help. Microsoft works at a very low price."

The reporters were stunned collectively, feeling that Song Weiyang made sense, and at the same time very excited-Song Da Pao opened fire on Bill Gates, and tomorrow's science and technology headlines have fallen off.

"Then do you think Bill Gates's plan can be successful?" a reporter asked.

Song Weiyang said: "It doesn't matter whether you succeed or not. Training 2,000 software architects is just a gimmick. It is to throw out Microsoft's casual work and let domestic software parks do it for him at a low price. Anyway, Microsoft won't suffer. , Chinese people can learn how much they can learn. If there are a few top leaders, Microsoft will be able to poach them with high salaries."

The reporter asked again: "Will Kingsoft choose to cooperate with Microsoft?"

"Never, Kingsoft and Microsoft are in a competitive relationship." Song Weiyang said very affirmatively.

Another reporter asked: "WPS once occupied 95% of China’s market share. After being defeated by Word for a while, it regained a round with WPS97 and regained more than 70% of the market share. But why would WPS be successful after WPS2000 and Word2000 were launched at the same time? How about losing again? I asked Mr. Lei last time, and he refused to answer this question."

Song Weiyang smiled and said, "He refused to answer, so you came to ask me?"

The reporter laughed and said: "Mr. Song has always been straightforward. All of us as reporters like to deal with you very much."

Song Weiyang said: "WPS2000 was not defeated by Word2000, but by the pirated version of Word2000. Microsoft Office software was pirated casually, and there was no danger of being reported or reported, so those pirates went crazy to make Word2000 installation disks. 2000 yuan. It’s a genuine product, just buy it for 5 yuan a piece, what do you think will be the result? Even those who make assembly machines, don’t install it for a penny for free. This is what I told Bill Gates on the previous "Eight Forum" That said, don’t talk about genuine issues in China."

The reporter asked: "Bill Gates said this was the biggest gain from his trip. What will Microsoft do next?"

Song Weiyang laughed and said: "Of course it is to let piracy go and use piracy to cultivate the market. When the Chinese market is formalized, everyone is accustomed to using Microsoft products, then Microsoft can lie down and make money."

"Why would you remind Bill Gates, aren't you afraid that Jinshan won't turn around?" the reporter asked.

Song Weiyang said: "Because some time ago, I have discussed with Mr. Qiu and Mr. Lei. Kingsoft will launch WPS2000X, which will introduce network interactive functions, and the personal version will be free forever. In addition, Kingsoft Internet Security will also launch a personal version and an enterprise version. The personal antivirus software will also be free forever."

"Free forever? How does Jinshan make money?" The reporters were all taken aback.

Song Weiyang smiled silently, and walked out of the venue in large strides.

For ordinary users, WPS2000 is actually more practical than Microsoft's OFFICE2000.

The first is that it opens faster and does not require high computer requirements, because WPS has less content-many old antique computers can't afford OFFICE2000 at all.

Secondly, the interface is more concise and convenient, and the detailed functions are more comprehensive. For example, WPS2000 has vertical and right typesetting options, chemical formulas can be output, formula formats can be customized, and Chinese phonetic symbols and euro symbols can be input. These functions are not available in Word2000.

The advantage of OFFECIE2000 is that it gives more choices to high-end users, various types of office software are very comprehensive, and there are also network operation functions-these contents are basically not used by ordinary users.

In general, in addition to networking operations, WPS2000 has achieved the ultimate in other details, but unfortunately it was beaten step by step by Microsoft's piracy.

So some time ago, Song Weiyang held a conference call with Qiu Bojun and Lei Jun, and he advocated that the personal version of WPS and Kingsoft Internet Security should be free forever. In any case, it is to seize the market anyway, and leave it alone if it is not profitable for the time being.

Qiu Bojun and Lei Jun disagreed, and Song Weiyang only threw out one sentence: "Broadband is about to become popular in China, and Internet download speeds are fast. At that time, let alone whether the genuine copy can make money, those pirates will lose their jobs, and users can directly log in. Download online!"

This situation is easy to imagine. In the past, users either bought genuine CDs or bought pirated CDs, anyway they had to spend money to buy them. In the next few years, you only need to connect to the broadband network, click the mouse to download, and install and use it without paying a penny. Doesn't it mean that all pirates will lose their jobs?

At that time, Qiu Bojun and Lei Jun looked at each other, and after a private discussion, they agreed to Song Weiyang’s permanent free plan~www.readwn.com~ When the personal version of Kingsoft Internet Security became a Kingsoft Security Guard, the Cardinal would not be a 360 Security Guard. Now, continue to be his 3721 honestly, or it is more appropriate to be the president of Yahoo China with peace of mind. By the way, 3271 has preceded Tencent this year and announced that it is the first company among Chinese Internet companies to achieve profitability.

After Song Weiyang's interview was reported, the industry even overwhelmed Bill Gates' limelight and directly caused a major earthquake in the software industry.

what to do? Kingsoft Internet Security is going to be free forever!

This problem is like a big mountain, weighing on the heads of domestic anti-virus software companies such as Rising and Jiang Min.

This is not grabbing a job, it's just turning the table up.

At the same time, because Song Weiyang directly exposed Bill Gates' plan, it instantly aroused widespread heated debate in the society. There were voices that Microsoft wanted to monopolize the Chinese software industry, and many units were afraid to cooperate with Microsoft publicly (private cooperation is affirmative). The leaders of many organizations and localities hated Song Weiyang, and they still want to use this to make political achievements.

Bill Gates was totally unaffected. When asked by reporters, he denied it, and ran to give a speech.

Although this speech was scheduled to be held at the Shanghai handover, not only students from Fudan University and Tongji Shenghai came to listen, but even university students from Beijing, Tianjin, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Bashu all traveled far and wide by train to see the elegant demeanor.

There are only two tickets for each class. There is no way to divide the tickets. The decision is made directly by lottery. Other universities in Shenghai also issue tickets. At first they wanted to issue tickets to outstanding students, but they could only be resolved by lottery. A ticket to Bill Gates’ lecture was directly fired to more than 300 yuan, and few were willing to sell it.

When Dr. Ma gave a lecture at the university, I did not see such a sensation. There is still a big gap between the richest man in China and the richest man in the world.
