Extraordinary Genius

The proposal for cooperation had been adopted, but specific cooperation clauses still needed to be elaborated. This time, Feng Woo gave it to Bill? Gates, come to America and talk to Bill personally? Gates talks.

“Von, the board of directors has approved a plan to work with your company, you know that? ”

“Of course.” Even though Feng Yu didn't show up, Ralph would still inform Feng Yu about the board.

“You make up 67 percent of the shares, so how much do you plan to invest? And how much does Microsoft need to invest? ”

“I invested $200 million and Microsoft $200 million. ”

Bill Gates frowned, invested one-to-one, but got two-to-one shares. Isn't that too much for Feng Yu?

Although he admits that the technology Feng Yu controls is very important, it's not that bad, is it?

“Oh, by the way, it's not Windstorm Electronics that's working with Microsoft this time, it's Little Hopper of Edward. ”

Windstorm Electronics, with VCDs, DVDs, and Windstorm phones, is also a small player in consumer electronics around the world. But, Edward Junior, Bill? Gates never heard of it.

Feng Yu actually used a company he hadn't even heard of to work with them, rather than the wind and rain electronics he had mentioned earlier, which made him feel fooled.

No one can fool him, Bill? Gates, nobody!

“Feng, this is different from what we talked about earlier, I think you are wrong? ”

“No, I'm sure, it's the Little King of Edward. This is the company that Ballmer looked into, and the company that has the technology to make the console, which I own. As for the DVD-related technology you're worried about, naturally it's included. ”

“By the way, the R&D team, also in Huaxia, we invested in building a product R&D center there. Microsoft people, too, are going to work there. Of course, I don't mind if you think it's okay to work here, but I'm not offering office space. ”

“Feng! I have already made a major concession, you have absolute control of the new company, but don't go too far!” Bill was furious.

“Bill, we can think the other way around. If Microsoft Holdings, where would you let the R&D team work? And research and development of home video game consoles, hardware is the most important thing, my people, are the best in the world. As for software, wouldn't it be nice to have a computer? ”

Since it is already an absolute controlling interest, of course, everything about the company should follow Feng Yu's request.

Microsoft made its own XBOX in previous generations. After the first generation came out, it had countless bad reviews. It was similar to Sega's console sales, but the price was even lower.

In other words, there are not many people willing to buy the discounted book. At that time, a console sold for $299, while Microsoft's cost of producing one was $430!

In other words, Microsoft was in the home console field, producing the highest cost, and making the worst. Well, not including Sega, who later quit the video console field.

And this console, with global final sales of over 20 million units, lost over $3 billion to Microsoft!

Is this Bill? Gates is ambitious, and this is what they think they can teach Yuni, Yuni Heaven.

Later, Microsoft accumulated experience, knew that it had focused on user feedback, improved technology, and produced a more fun game console. However, it remained unbeatable, but finally reversed the reputation and lost money.

But how can second-generation consoles be profitable? Because they use the most disrespectful IBM core Microsoft has ever worked with.

Microsoft's second-generation machines, while selling more than 80 million machines, have yet to make up for the loss of the last generation of machines.

Microsoft lost billions of dollars for this console, including R&D investment, service websites and other operations!

Billions of dollars, of course, are nothing compared to Microsoft's big business. It has to be said, however, that this was a failed input, although Microsoft has since received considerable praise.

Because more than a decade later, the fewer people buy these consoles. Although Microsoft calls it a somatosensory console that can put people in their situation, it's just that, too close.

What was Bill Gates trying to say, Feng Yu went on to say, "Bill, what are the labor costs in the US and what are the labor costs in Huaxia? Our production in Huaxia can drastically reduce our costs and enhance the competitiveness of our products. ”

Bill Gates was silent, and of course he knew that putting this product in Huaxia was the right choice, with ready-made factories, cheap labor and relatively mature development experience.

But he was just upset about Feng Yu's attitude. Why is it that all the conditions are mentioned by Feng Yu, and Feng Yu hasn't agreed to any of them?

“Even if all of this makes sense, management must be managed together, including all sectors such as product R&D, production and sales. ”

“Bill, do you know how to sell electronics? I am more experienced in this area than Microsoft. My brand, my products, from nothing to nothing, from the cracks of so many large companies to today's level, my sales team, so the sales side should be left to me, North America side, if Microsoft wants to, can be responsible. ”

“In terms of production, Microsoft has never produced any of these products, or even hunted any of these factories, and you're just making some system CD-ROMs. In terms of production, it is also my team that is better, better than better, and should be my team management. If a factory is to be built in North America in the future, Microsoft can take control of it. ”

“Not to mention R&D, the main R&D team is mine. Of course, software and hardware can be separated. Software, Microsoft is responsible, hardware, my team is responsible. Is that reasonable? As for game development, we work together, we can talk about it. ”

“There are logistics, finance, etc., which can also be managed together and discussed. As for the president of the company, should I be the one to appoint him? ”

Bill Gates stared at Feng Yu and said for half a day, why does it look like he's lifting a rock and smashing his own foot? Most of the management of this company was taken away by Feng Yu, and the rest was also discussed. What can we do if we can't talk about it? Why don't we let the president decide that Feng Yu is still the appointed president? Isn't this company entirely up to Feng Yu?

“Bill, believe me, we're going to create a brilliant future that will revolutionize home video consoles and change people's perceptions of consoles. Step at the feet of Shuni, Nong Heaven, etc. all this achievement belongs to all of us! ”

Perhaps Feng Woo moved Bill by stepping on his feet, saying, "Shut up," and "Heaven"? Gates, eventually Bill? Gates nodded: "Okay. If the first-generation product fails, I appoint the president, and whoever wants to sell the company's shares, the other party can buy it first on the same terms. Also, on the console, be sure to have Microsoft's visible logo. ”

“No problem, then we have a good time! ”
