Reborn American Tyrant

The personal PC market is full of smoke, with the exception of the Big Four.There is a Dell computer hidden in the corner.Although this product belongs to the non-mainstream, it goes very steadily, and it is a step by step.

In the hardware industry, software does appear to be relatively calm.Since the acquisition of Oracle, the development direction of White's system has begun to shift. The software suitable for personal PCs is mainly office suites and microcomputer databases.

As for the CD player and the like, it can basically be regarded as a ticket.Obviously, William White has plans to sell personal PC software.

"Boss, the valuation of Microsoft is growing very fast. Our business is not listed, which is a bit of a loss."

"Tsk, so, isn't the software selling well recently? We can leak a little bit of news appropriately. We plan to spin off the office software business."

Philson heard what the boss meant. In fact, he was also very annoyed. This damn Bill must hold on to those shares. He simply didn't know what was good or bad.

"Boss, otherwise, we maliciously acquire it."

William White shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Philson, they don't bother me now. That's because I spent money on lobbying the company. If we expand the personal PC business again, we will have trouble."

Philson is very clear that the boss's venture capital company has invested in a lot of IT industries.And these large and small companies are basically in the personal PC field.

"Boss, if Microsoft acquires our PC software business, won't you be in trouble here?"

"No, these shares will all go to the family fund. You know, I now have a son, and I need to leave something for them."

"Okay, boss, I see what you mean, a board seat is not required."

"Of course, I believe Bill Gates also knows that he just saw that I wanted to sell this business. Besides, he knew that I coveted Microsoft shares very much."

"Okay, I'll make arrangements. I believe that when he learns this news, he will definitely jump his feet."

Philson was right. Chunfeng's proud classmate Bill, immediately chose to yell at him.

William White does not need to be big and comprehensive, so he will be entangled by the Justice Department.He only needs to cut a small piece, but in this field, he must be the best.

Obviously, Bill Gates understood William White's ideas.Although he was a little disapproving, he was a little secretly pleased.

He figured it out, why this guy doesn't engage in operating systems.It's not that people don't have this ability, but that he doesn't want to be IBM's second.

International Business Machines, as soon as you hear the name, you will understand that people didn't start playing computers at all.In fact, the Big Blue involves a wide range of industries, and it is outrageous that as long as there is a profitable business, you can always see these bastards.No need to say how much hatred it is.

"Boss, this IPO may be a cover. It is undoubtedly Microsoft who wants to buy this company the most."

"Hehe, our richest man is obviously a little impatient. This guy named Bill can really toss."

"This time, I'm afraid there will be a result."

"Well, it seems that although William White is domineering, he has a time to make sense."

The old guy said he was happy, but his subordinates could only agree.He actually wanted to say that we, Da Mo, are too indifferent to be hated by others.Hostile takeover is easy to say, what happens after the acquisition is completed?Do you still expect other people's core team to continue to work?

The more thoroughly you understand the IT industry, the more you understand the importance of people.Your forced hostile takeover is simple, and wanting to have a good development is simply a dream.

The communication with Bill Gates was not very harmonious.To be honest, the valuation is nonsense.If you think it's cheaper, I'll take out some more cash.

The most depressing thing is that both sides have planned this way.

It's just that William White doesn't plan to wait this time.If Bill Gates continues to insist, he doesn't mind building another operating system.

"Bill, up to three months, if you can't decide here, we will sell all the stocks."

"Oh, White System is going to be an operating system?"

"Haha, that's wrong. Our boss plans to support Jobs. Now Apple's valuation is not high. If the acquisition is successful, we will sell the hardware part to Compaq."

Silk, the first few words, classmate Bill disagrees.He doesn't believe that those compatible manufacturers will use Apple's system.

However, the taste of the latter speech is different.Yes, if Apple becomes a software company, Microsoft will have a big trouble.

Hey, there is a big possibility that Microsoft will be abandoned by the Blue Giant.Thinking of these terrible things, Bill Gates only smiled bitterly.

The one who came to negotiate today is William White's chief think tank.These words he said also represented William White's thoughts.

The White system is not one of those buns, and they don't play hostile takeovers at all.The most valuable thing about your Microsoft is your core team.

Instead of spending a lot of money on the acquisition, it is better to dig corners.As long as the conditions are good enough, there will definitely be someone who will give it to you.

"Well, although I know this is just a threat, I also need to deal with it carefully. I will reply as soon as possible."

"Trust me, Bill, this is the boss’s truest idea. We have always had an operating system plan, we had it a long time ago. Now that everything has been said, I will not hide it from you. This is our previous development plan. Before IBM decides to cooperate with you."

Looking at the information in his hand, Bill Gates couldn't help but smile.Well, based on the above things, he easily judged it.Things are true, but IBM finally gave the contract to Microsoft, which is nothing short of private fraud.

"I can see it. I remembered it very clearly at the time. The boss said there was little hope and IBM preferred to deal with small companies."

"Well, Philson, let's start again."

The two guys continued to talk, and this time, it was impossible for Bill to drag.Of course he is also a sensible person. Windows 3.0 does a good job, and the development of the office software of the White system is indeed very ordinary.If it drags on, William White’s valuation here will suffer.

Of course, the two can't talk well for a while.This will be a very long process.It's just that the two sides are very sincere this time.

"Boss, there is great hope this time, that guy is really difficult to deal with."

"Hehe, did you use Jobs to stimulate him?"

"Yes, this is what he worries most."

"This bastard belongs to a donkey at all, if you don't scare him a bit, some of it will be delayed."

Philson was dumbfounded. Hearing what the boss said, it was a bit silly!

"Boss, are you just scaring him?"

"Of course, it is too difficult to develop an operating system alone. The most important thing is that users are used to it. No matter how good your stuff is, users may not buy it. Work hard, it's best to get it done within two months."

"Okay, boss, it's not a big problem."
