Chapter 1537 I am richer than you
"Haha, who made the big deal about this first?" Boss Jia sneered and said, "The competition between the two software is to win users by relying on their own abilities, but Mr. Gates directly took action from the system. Isn't this trying to make things bigger?"
"That's just a normal system update!" Bill Gates said.
"Okay, we are all the same people, there is no need to say such words. We all know what anyone thinks in our hearts!" Boss Jia smiled, and Bill Gates stopped talking.
"How do you want to solve this problem?" Jia Yapeng asked.
"One of us takes a step back!" Bill Gates said, "I revoked the accusation against Alibaba in court, and Alibaba also revoked the lawsuit. At the same time, in all media, publicly stated that the previous article was wrong. Now, after sufficient communication between us, Microsoft did not deliberately target QQ, and both sides gave up!"
"Is this called taking one step back?" Boss Jia couldn't help but smile. "Don't your company's update patch be deleted? Also, don't your company need to issue a statement in the global media saying that its patch will undoubtedly have an impact on QQ's operations?"
"I said that our patch is not for QQ!"
"But your patches have indeed affected the normal operation of our QQ!"
Bill Gates and Jia Yapeng each argued, and it was obvious that it was our boss Jia who made more sense. After all, Microsoft took the lead in the matter first.
"Mr. Jia, don't go too far. I took the initiative to call you today, which represents our Microsoft's greatest sincerity. You are the first person in history to ask me to call or even take the initiative to take the initiative to take the initiative to take the initiative to take the initiative to take the initiative to take the initiative to take the lead!" Bill Gates's words sounded very proud of Boss Jia.
In fact, if Bill Gates says such words to any entrepreneur in China, the entrepreneur will feel honored.
But after Boss Jia heard it, all his hair was blown open.
"Mr. Bill Gates, you are afraid you are not qualified to say such things to me!" Boss Jia sneered and said, "On the contrary, it is your greatest honor to be willing to answer your phone today!"
"..." Bill Gates on the other end of the phone was speechless, and the whites of his eyes were almost turned out. He thought he was gentle and had never met such a shameless guy.
"We are Microsoft! It is a Windows system, a platform that all software must use! The system is a tree trunk, and the program is just a branch. Without the Windows system, your QQ has no meaning to exist!" Bill Gates said strongly.
"..." There seemed to be no sound on the other end of the phone, which made Bill Gates much happier. It seemed that this Chinese finally had some self-knowledge.
But what I didn't expect was that the next second, a voice said softly, "But, I'm richer than you!"
"My Microsoft has a market value of $250 billion! Your 51 search and Amazon have a combined total of less than $150 billion," Bill Gates said with a angrily smile.
"But Microsoft only has 20.32% of the shares left, but 51 Search and Amazon have 40% of the shares. By the way, I also have Daqian Group, the kind that holds 100% of the shares!"
"..." There was no sound on Bill Gates.
"No need to say these meaningless things!" Bill Gates' voice rang again, and it sounded, and he should have calmed down. "My opinion, I hope Mr. Jia will think carefully. This is the first time I have called you and the last time I have called you. If the conditions are not accepted, then we Microsoft will be happy to go with Daqian..."
"Boss!" Boss Jia slapped and hung up his phone directly, too lazy to listen to this guy's nonsense.
Boss Jia originally had some fantasies about Bill Gates, believing that he, the idol he admired in childhood, was the richest man in the world for more than ten consecutive years, and should be a person full of connotation and wisdom.
Now it seems that he is no different from an ordinary child, and his personality is a bit strange. He is in his 30s and is actually the same child. Comparing with others on the phone who is richer, he is simply a child!
This is normal. If it weren't for a guy with a weird personality, how could he drop out of Harvard University in advance?
However, as Boss Jia's phone call hung up, the battle between Daqian and Microsoft must be fought until one side can't bear it and admits defeat.
As for this war, Boss Jia was very calm and even a little eager to try it out.
Because no matter how much you win or lose in this war, Boss Jia will not lose.
If you win Microsoft, it will naturally be awesome.
If you lose, it doesn't matter. Anyway, it's just a QQ, and for the current big monk, it's just a little bit of a fur. Anyway, the future social networking will sooner or later belong to the mobile communication era, Facebook, Twitter, and WeChat to learn about it.
Well, although these companies have not been established, the brands have been applied for by Daqian, and they are Daqian's sub-brands.
For Microsoft, this is a battle that must not be lost, because Boss Jia grasped Microsoft's fatal point, which is the antitrust investigation.
Why did Bill Gates condescend to the nobles and call Boss Jia and demand a truce?
The reason is very simple, because Microsoft is afraid of death and antitrust investigations. After all, once the antitrust investigation is established, Microsoft will be forced to split into several companies, and Bill Gates worked hard to lay down his foundation and then all of them were disbanded.
However, the United States' antitrust agencies have long been eyeing Microsoft and want to punish Microsoft. Bill Gates has actually been using various relationships and forces to delay the investigation.
In history, Bill Gates would have delayed until 2004 before the investigation was officially launched. But this time, a big fiction suddenly popped up and filed an antitrust investigation directly with the US court, which made Bill Gates very nervous.
After all, what is being held back is a ball of dry firewood. Once any sparks appear, this pile of dry firewood may ignite at any time.
This is why Bill Gates put down his arrogance and took the initiative to call Boss Jia to demand a truce. It’s a pity that this arrogance was not completely abandoned enough that the two sides broke down their talks directly.
The next step is as Bill Gates said, both sides can only fight when they get bigger, and they can't beat them until one side can't continue to hurt, and this will end.
"We must do our best to knock off the QQ directly and let Daqian know the pain, so that he will know what it means to lose more than he loses!" Bill Gates thought for a while, and immediately convened a board meeting to announce his thoughts.
At this time, Microsoft's board of directors was very angry at Daqian, and at the same time, they were extremely arrogant because of Microsoft's achievements in growing into the world's number one computer company in five years. Therefore, there was no obstacle to Bill Gates' initial plan, and they were approved collectively as soon as possible.
On October 22, 1998, Microsoft officially announced that after careful screening, they found that the QQ program contained a large number of Trojan viruses, which also posed a serious threat to the security system of the Windows system.
