Chapter 1914 Gates Conditions (5/10)

Bill Gates lost faith in Microsoft when he talked about dividing markets.

Now the sales volume of PC manufacturers is not much different, but the network paid to download this piece even think that Silver Mountain is far ahead, indicating that more and more XP users have now chosen XOS2.0 system, whose market share is bigger in the future?

Bill Gates never admitted failure, but comments online in recent days have shown Bill Gates the crisis.

Microsoft divided the WIN7 into several classes, ranging from $59 to $169, saying it was functionally different, as cheap as it worked, and more expensive.

But by comparison, it turns out that the cheapest $59 system is a lot worse than the one they tried, and the WIN7 features they say online don't show up at all.

How Microsoft answers at this time, you can download the patch from the official website for system upgrade, so that it performs perfectly, definitely better than XOS2.0.

Even though Silver Mountain responded immediately to this situation, they had only three versions, the home version, the corporate version and the flagship version, while WIN7 had six versions, several of which did not have the capability to promote many of the WIN7 versions.

Microsoft is targeting emerging markets, excluding markets such as North America and Western Europe, but delivering heavily in Asia, Africa and Eastern Europe.

Lenovo Silver Mountain said that Microsoft was disrespectful of the market, discriminated against users, and naturally graded users. And the propaganda is full of fraud ~ fraud, which is immoral.

In previous life, Microsoft was a unique family, so segregation of markets was fine, many countries' networks were underdeveloped, and some features were completely unnecessary. You really need it, go pay to upgrade on the internet.

But in contrast to even thinking about the Silver Mountain system, the gap came out. It was supposed to be the same price for both parties, the functionality and so on, even some people simply felt that Microsoft brand was bigger and the product should be better.

When I bought it back, I realized that it was a castrated version, and many of the publicity features didn't work, which is completely different from the experience online.

While most of this is happening in the markets of underdeveloped countries, it is thought that Silver Mountain has amplified its impact and passed it on to the markets of developed countries such as Europe and the United States, seriously affecting Microsoft's reputation.

Bill Gates, that's what I want to talk to Feng Yu about. You don't even have to compete so hard with us at Microsoft. Everyone makes a move so that we can all make more profit, and we can check the PC manufacturers again. Why not?

It's just that as soon as Kirilenko came up, he lit Paul Allen's lead, and it wouldn't be bad if it didn't blow up.

“Feng, we don't have to compete like this at all. Do you even think that Silver Mountain signed a supplementary agreement with PC manufacturers to give them concessions so that your profits won't be affected? Do you think Silver Mountain will defeat Microsoft? ”

Feng Yu shrugged: “What does it matter if Silver Mountain beats Microsoft? I'm not just making money thinking about Silver Mountain shares. You see, I work with Kirilenko in mining groups, retail groups, automotive groups, cultural entertainment groups, etc., which makes less money? ”

“It can even be said that even thinking about the money that Silver Mountain earns doesn't rank among our revenues. I don't give a shit about profits, Kee. Do you care? ”

Kirilenko shook his head very well: “Who cares about this little money? Software is not my main industry. ”

Unfortunately, software is your major industry for Bill Gates and Paul Allen, and you care a lot about profits in this area, which we don't value at all.

“Feng, let me put it another way, we should be cooperating, cooperating on different industries. I'm also a shareholder and director of the National Car Rental Corporation, and I have a lot of voice there. The company is the largest automotive sales agent in the US, and is one of the world's largest automotive companies, including the same company, Fute, Chrysler, Dezhong, Crazy Field, etc., and is a partner. ”

“I know you both have automotive industries, and these past two years have been expanding fast, just not selling well in North America? If I can get your automotive brand to be sold by this company, there will be a huge increase in sales to you. ”

“I'm also a Wal-Mart shareholder and director, and you can also collaborate in retail. Isn't that the right choice for more channels of delivery, lower purchase prices and cooperative cost savings in logistics transportation? ”

“Von, Kirilenko, think about it, since you don't even care about thinking about Silver Mountain profits, would it be bad to make more money in other ways? ”

Feng Yu looked at Kirilenko and Kirilenko shook his head: “Don't look at me, I support your decision. ”

This unconditional trust makes people feel very good.

“Gates, I think you're mistaken again. Who told you that I also value automotive, retail, etc.? I don't care how little money I make, because I can't spend my whole life. ”

“I can make money in every industry, and each industry may not make the most money, but together, I am the fastest person in the world to make money! ”

“You said retail cooperation, as if we took advantage, but wouldn't Wal-Mart make money, and you wouldn't take advantage? ”

“The car rental agency in the United States, what is the biggest car sales agent in the United States, but how much does it sell each year? Haven't you noticed that our Amazon automotive website is already growing rapidly and that our own sales channels are rapidly being built? ”

“We talked a few times, and this company refused to act as our agent, and now you're saying it's a good choice, but I'm sorry, I disagree. ”

“Gates, Alan, I urge you to take advantage of the rapid increase in Microsoft stock prices in the last few days and cash in on the stock. Otherwise you will fall back for a while, and you will lose a lot. ”

“Once I gave you a chance, I was Microsoft's shareholder and director, but what did you do to me? I have a big flaw, especially revenge. Since you think Microsoft was created by you, it's up to you, so I'll invest in other businesses and let them pull Microsoft down. ”

“By the way, I already know the news from IBM, but thank you for the reminder, otherwise I might have turned around and forgotten. I'll tell you one thing, IBM wants to swap shares with Lenovo Silver Mountain and join the research and development of XOS and HOS. So they're developing LINUX based systems that we're not worried about at all, it's you! ”
