Bill is 27 years older than Qi Lei. Although in this time and space, Bill Gates, 47, is not old and is in a peak year, he is indeed the age of Qi Lei's parents.
Normally, there is no common language except business.
In addition, the completely unequal wealth status and public status, no one can imagine that the two people will sit together and talk freely without estrangement.
The degree of harmony has even surpassed any small circle present.
However, by counting their life trajectories, we will find that they have many similarities.
It is also a famous young man and a legendary figure.
In fact, Bill knew early that Del would bring the Oriental boy.
Once at the party, Bill locked Qi Lei for the first time without anyone's introduction.
The boy seemed to let him see himself.
Young, fearless and full of wisdom.
Just like Qi Lei who looks back on the time, he is full of regret and yearning.
Bill, who has everything, has reached the age of remembering the past, and some young regrets can no longer be made up.
"Qi, Pangu's personalized dress up and theme market are a genius creativity!"
"Well, I admit, windows lost on this."
Bill's words of praise were not stingy.
Qi Lei is not modest, "then you should look at our 3.0 beta version. We have opened more permissions and handed over the customization right of Pangu application to users."
Bill, "really? It's crazy. Will it bring a great burden to the system maintenance and upgrading? From the perspective of the company, it's not conducive to the compression of operating costs."
Qi Lei smiled, "Uncle Bill, you have been bound by the company and begin to lack imagination."
"Pangu 3.0 will also open the update and upgrade permissions for enterprise users."
“???”
Bill didn't quite understand.
Qi Lei, "in short, in the future, Sanshi will only be responsible for the basic maintenance of Pangu system and the upgrading and maintenance of underlying code."
"What the system develops into and what it shows to users is not decided by Pangu, but by various customization manufacturers."
"For example, imagination computer has customized a personalized system for imagination user groups on the basis of Pangu since this year."
"At the same time, several Chinese manufacturers and several European manufacturers have also carried out personalized transformation."
"We even allowed them to change the name of Pangu system."
"They will develop many branches on the basis of Pangu. Therefore, I don't need to consider the difficulty of upgrading and maintenance at all. They will handle all this by themselves."
Bill Gates: "
Stunned for a long time, "Oh! Damn it! I think I really met my opponent."
"But it's not too late."
Qi Lei smiled, "then you have to hurry up. Because Pangu 3.0 will be officially launched in two to three months at most."
“……”
“……”
“……”
People are more and more confused. Qi Lei just said Pangu's upgrade plan?
You know, for a system company, this is the core secret, right?
While de'el listened from a distance, his eyes glowed with gold.
Heart, 3.0
Pangu 3.0!!
This, this is where Bill Gates set up a strong enemy? He made a bunch of enemies for bill.
This idea is so genius!
De'er is more aware that the Pangu system has great potential.
Even more surprising to de El was that Bill Gates remained calm when he heard the news. Even vaguely... Excited?
Well, the other guests are also curious. How big is this heart? Can Qi Lei tell the company's secrets directly, and bill has a strong sense of war?
Kayla looked over there with envy. "Rosie, do you hear me? Mr. Gates is really great! No wonder he is a billionaire! There is no fear at all."
Rosie curled her lips and said in her heart, isn't Qi Lei more amazing?
But Rosie is not in the mood to quarrel with Keira and bite her lower lip. She is worried about Qi Lei.
You know, Qi Lei disclosed the purpose of his trip to the United States before, which itself will arouse the vigilance of some people and bring a lot of trouble.
Now, he also said Pangu's upgrade plan, making everyone aware that Pangu would be a huge threat, which undoubtedly increased the difficulty of his trip.
Although shansha from the Ministry of Commerce didn't come today, she will know and stop Qi Lei.
"This big mouth fool!!"
Rosie couldn't help worrying, "Why say it!?"
……
Over there, Qi Lei and Bill were still talking as if there were no one else.
Bill laughed and self-examination, "actually, I should thank you."
Qi Lei, "what do you say?"
Bill, "the original intention of windows system, or the secret of success, is to simplify computer operation. It is simplified to the point that you can use computers without obstacles even if you haven't studied computers."
"This allowed us to beat many opponents and become the most popular system."
Qi Lei, "indeed, the advantage of windows system is here. Before windows, it is difficult to use computers without systematic learning of computer knowledge."
Future generations of young people may not have the concept that the computer operating system should not be what they see. In fact, that's not the case at all.
Before windows, don't say it too early. A DOS can drive people crazy.
It is necessary to memorize all kinds of instructions in order to realize computer operation.
This is why Qi Lei said he was standing on the shoulders of giants.
Different people, different views. Bill Gates make complaints about Apple's system.
At this time, bill, "because of these actions to simplify the user experience, we won, and Microsoft has become the most successful company in Silicon Valley."
"But!" Bill became serious. "Twenty years later, Microsoft seems to have forgotten its original intention and why we succeeded."
"In China, we lost to Pangu, who is more humanized. This is a problem worthy of reflection. Therefore, Microsoft has returned to the previous track and the concept of humanization."
"Damn it!" At this point, Bill cursed, "you're a marketing genius. You beat me by my means!"
Qi Lei, "not really? At least outside China, Microsoft is still the first."
Bill, "it's already very good. Do you still want to beat me outside China?"
Qi Lei suddenly smiled, "I want to try!"
Bill looked at him in surprise, a little envious.
Ponder for a moment and come to a conclusion, "it's hard!"
"First of all, personalization and open source programs are very creative, bringing you a lot of users."
"But..."
"I've personally studied your Pangu. It's good for nothing except personalization and Fuxi browser!"
Bill said bluntly, "your technology is too poor and the underlying code is full of loopholes. Such products are unqualified and will be abandoned by users sooner or later."
Qi Lei does not deny that, to tell the truth, Pangu is not as good as windows from a technical point of view, which is not controversial.
The success in the domestic market is the blessing of the domestic system and the flexibility of personalization and marketing.
He does not deny this.
However, in the face of Bill's impolite criticism, Qi Lei still had to say a few words for Pangu.
He said, "be satisfied! You know, we are just a team of 100 people. It takes two years to start from scratch."
"It's good to be able to do this."
Bill, "but it's really bad."
Qi Lei stared, "then your windows can't move to the blue screen!"
Bill, "!!!"
"Qi, you can't say that. We've tried our best! Tens of millions of codes are bound to make mistakes."
Qi Lei, "each other."
Bill, "it's different! We've made far fewer mistakes than you!"
Qi Lei, "even one is wrong!"
Bill, "you can't compete with me when you enter the United States."
Qi Lei, "we'll see!"
“……”
“……”
The guests are not calm again. How can they fight again after a few words?
Moreover, the points of debate are fresh! Childish or not?
Besides, it's too early for Qi Lei to argue with bill about competition. Let's pass the pass of the Ministry of Commerce first!
……
——————
Throughout the evening, Qi Lei and bill had a good talk.
Two people, sometimes laughing, sometimes arguing over trivial things, so that others have no chance to talk to each other.
Bill seems to have found the feeling of starting a business when he was young from Qi Lei.
Qi Lei also learned a lot from this elder.
The attitude towards affairs, competition and the ultimate pursuit of technology.
In fact, the early entrepreneurs in Silicon Valley, such as the generation of Silicon Valley people such as Bill Gates and jobs, are still very cute, with the innocence of it men and the persistence of pursuing the peak of technology.
Although there is also the cunning of the mall, but
This is like apple in the jobs era and apple in the cook era are two apples, which are different from businessmen after all.
As the parting approached, Bill gave Qi Lei a hug.
"Qi, you make me very contradictory!"
"From the perspective of the company, I certainly don't want a competitor like you."
"But personally, I hope there will be an opponent like you in Silicon Valley. Maybe it will make Microsoft better."
Qi Lei smiled, "Uncle Bill, I think we'll see each other soon."
"At that time, I hope we can chat as happily as today."
Bill, "I hope so."
……
On the way back to Shanjing City, the car was very quiet, and eight eyes looked at Qi Lei curiously.
You can't do without curiosity. Qi Lei's performance tonight is incomprehensible.
Originally, pony should not ask some sensitive questions in front of manager Wen and Rosie.
But he couldn't help it.
"Stone, what are you thinking? What conspiracy are you brewing?"
This made all four people stand up and wait for Qi Lei's answer.
And Qi Lei, "Cha! There's no conspiracy this time. It's all a conspiracy. “
Kayla was worried because she spoke Chinese and she couldn't understand it.
Rosie can only translate for her, but she still can't understand, "what's yangmou?"
Rosie thought, "it's a trick in the open!"
Kayla understood. "It's still a conspiracy."
Manager Wen is not in the mood to listen to a little girl fooling around, "I still don't understand you."
"Anyway, I declare again that Desheng will not help you this time."
Qi Lei sniffed, "brother Wen, don't talk too full."
Manager Wen, "?????"
Qi Lei looked at his tangled appearance, "forget it, I'd better tell you!"
Manager Wen listened, "no! I won't listen!"
I'm so happy that I'm willing to guess.
Besides, if you can guess, the headquarters has spoken. It really can't help.
He was afraid to listen, but embarrassed.
"I'll go back to Hollywood tomorrow. There's going to be results there. If I need to keep an eye on it, I won't accompany you."
He thought it was dangerous to stay here.
As a result, Qi Lei said, "no, tomorrow's schedule has been arranged."
"Where are you going?"
Qi Lei, "Stanford, watch my brother go!"
“……”
“……”
“……”
Special! Manager Wen scolded in his heart. Are you here for business or sightseeing?
I didn't see him on business.
"I won't go?"
Why should I follow you when you go to see Wu Ning?
Qi Lei, "you really have to go."
Manager Wen, "why?"
Qi Lei, "because I want to talk to levistan."
“????”
Why is it about old levina again?
As mentioned before, levistan is not only a senior consultant of Desheng, but also a well-known scholar at Stanford University.
So, when there was nothing wrong with Desheng, old levy hid in Stanford to teach.
Wen Jing thought ideally and simply took out the phone, "then I'll make an appointment for you. Don't go?"
Qi Lei thought that since he was so reluctant, it was OK to make an appointment with levistan anyway.
I only heard that manager Wen made a phone call and put it down with a gloating smile, "unfortunately, levistan has no time tomorrow!"
Qi Lei frowned, "that's really unfortunate. He's not at Stanford?"
Manager Wen said, "yes, but it's important to have a joint lecture tomorrow."
Qi Lei asked casually, "those who can hold joint lectures with levistan should have a high academic status. Who?"
There are many masters in the field of communication. Out of professional interest, Qi Lei is really curious.
Manager Wen smiled, "I'm really not a communication scholar."
"Levi said that it was us, Desheng, several executives of Morgan and other investment banks, and a famous geek, who was a madman engaged in it."
"What's the name? I forgot to discuss the future technology industry together."
"By the way, bill and del will be present tomorrow."
Qi Lei Yizhi, geek?
In this period, he was called a famous geek or an it madman
A name came to mind.
I couldn't help jumping, "is it... Is it Andrew Rubin?"
Manager Wen was also stunned. "Yes, it's Andrew bin. How do you know it's him?"
Qi Lei got a positive reply from manager Wen and couldn't help laughing strangely.
"Then tomorrow! Tell old Levi that I'll listen to his story tomorrow."
Manager Wen, "..."
Why... Qi Lei's little eyes are more excited than seeing Bill Gates?
……
。
No mistake. Good night, everyone.
