Wow
Paul Allen frowned and pushed open the door of Bill Gates' office.
There are fragments of a coffee cup on the ground. This is the cup that Bill Gates has used for many years, and it was broken today.
"Bill, have you also read the reprint of Feng Yu's blog article?"
Bill Gates glanced at Paul Allen and said nothing. The article said that without Paul Allen and without Ballmer, there would be no Microsoft, seriously downplaying Bill Gates' unique authority in Microsoft.
Behind the scenes, he was said to be a bad role model! How could he, who had been praised by the media for more than ten years or even decades, endure such accusations
Also, what is said at the end about conscientious entrepreneurs? Are we just black-hearted businessmen? Without the operating system provided by Microsoft, could the IT industry develop so fast? Are the profits we make a lot compared to the contributions we make
Although he knew in his heart that Feng Yu had a very bad relationship with Paul Allen, and praising Paul Allen was an obvious tactic to alienate him, but knowing it was one thing, and whether he could accept it was another.
Many times you know that the other person is trying to trick you, but you still feel angry inside.
"Bill, that Feng Yu is too arrogant. We must respond strongly to such unfounded accusations!" Paul Allen also said angrily.
Just as he was talking, Ballmer also knocked on the door and came in. He saw the broken coffee cup on the ground, and the corners of his eyes twitched.
"Steve, you saw Feng Yu's blog post, right? How do you plan to deal with it?" Paul Allen turned around and asked.
"Paul, what do you think?" Ballmer asked.
"At the same time, we will notify those PC manufacturers to increase their efforts to promote products pre-installed with our Vista system. We will also accuse Feng Yu of his false remarks and require Feng Yu to publicly apologize and compensate Microsoft for our losses."
"Increase efforts to promote our products. I have contacted major p manufacturers about this. They have also been attacked by Kameda Masao's remarks, so they should be willing to cooperate with us. As for accusing Feng Yu, we should mainly focus on which remarks are untrue. ?" Ballmer asked.
Whether you are talking about Microsoft's high profits or the stories about Bill Gates, it is indeed true.
"He said our employees were lazy. Isn't that an indictment of them?" Paul Allen said angrily.
"Paul, those were Kameda Masao's remarks, and they were published in the language of the island country. There will inevitably be some deviations in the translation process. If there is a lawsuit, let alone we may not win. Even if we win, we will still suffer. This is still discrediting ourselves!”
"As for Feng Yu's remarks, we have nothing to accuse the other party. The only thing is that Feng Yu said that our profits from P are enough for us to develop more than a dozen P and Vista products. This is obviously exaggerated. But if we sue The other party will list it in detail, which will make our accounts more transparent. Then everyone will know that our profits are extremely high."
Although Microsoft is a listed company, how many people pay attention to how much money Microsoft makes? At least ordinary consumers only care about Microsoft's stock price.
Once Feng Yu goes to court over this matter, it will still be Microsoft that suffers. Who makes Microsoft's Vista system the most expensive in history
He said at the beginning that the price of this system should be cheaper, because with os as a competitor, their prices are so low, consumers will compare and choose the other's.
But Bill and Paul firmly believe in Microsoft's strong brand effect, user inertia, etc. However, there are too many differences between Vista and P. On the contrary, due to user inertia, users will move to the OS system which is very similar to P but is more easy to use, not to mention that the other party's price is too competitive.
They have put a lot of pressure on the PC business. The price of the same PC with their Vista system pre-installed is hundreds of dollars higher than that with the OS pre-installed.
On the surface, it raises the bar, but many consumers say that this increases their expenses, and they do not enjoy more or better services.
"According to what you say, we can only suffer the consequences of being dumb?!" Paul said angrily.
"I think we don't need to care, Intel will respond. We just need to join forces with Intel, we will optimize the performance of their products, and they will also optimize our products, then We can join forces to suppress companies such as Lianxiang Yinshan and Chaowei." Ballmer explained calmly.
Bill Gates suddenly said in a hesitant voice: "What if Intel fails?"
Paul and Ballmer both stared wide-eyed. What did Bill say, being smart will lead to defeat
They had not considered this before. Intelligent was so powerful that it was the leader among all hardware accessories manufacturers. But it is not that Intel has never failed. For example, when it competed with Chaowei in dual-core technology, Intel suffered a disastrous defeat!
In terms of dual-core, Chaowei has laid the foundation for their image of superior technology, allowing more consumers to choose Chaowei's products, and more manufacturers to choose Chaowei's products.
If Intel fails, the most likely possibility is that those p manufacturers will betray and switch to Chaowei.
But Masao Kameda’s remarks attacked all PC manufacturers, and even attacked the entire industry. Will those manufacturers really cooperate with and support AMD
"So we can't wait for Yingte to decide the outcome with the opponent. We have to take action to let Feng Yu know that he shouldn't mess with all of us!"
Bill Gates looked ferocious, as if he had made some decision.
But Ballmer lamented in his heart, when did Microsoft need to join forces with others to suppress the other party
In the past, Microsoft was a company, and it slapped all hardware manufacturers and PC manufacturers, so that they all had to obey Microsoft's orders. No one was allowed to pre-install the Linux system, and they were not allowed to pre-install the Fruit Company's system. This made Fruit The company's system can only be installed and used on its own brand machines.
From this point of view, Microsoft has actually failed and lost their unique and lofty status.
…
"Microsoft announced that their office software and other application software will not launch OS-compatible versions."
"The university professor vindicated Bill Gates' name. Without Bill Gates and without Microsoft, there would be no prosperous IT industry today!"
"Inter announced that they are still technologically ahead of AMD. The cost was too high before because of factory efficiency issues and labor cost issues. Now they have made corrections."
"Bill Gates refuted Feng Yu's remarks. He has never let anyone imitate him because his success cannot be imitated."
"Microsoft believes that the OS system is relatively backward. Better products should have more appropriate prices. The market cannot drive out good money with bad money!"
"Intel claimed that Feng Yu once wanted to invest in Intel, but was rejected. Feng Yu was deliberately discrediting Intel."
After the two large companies spoke out, some small related companies began to express their support.
Things seem to be getting bigger and bigger!
