Chapter 517 Multimedia Era

William White's recent moves are too big, and Bushu can't help but pay attention. Obviously, this guy has completed his overseas layout and is planning to return to the mainstream.

Didn't you say that he is unwilling to invest in the United States?

Hehe, keep your eyes open now, one project after another. Not to mention the people who eat melons, even the so-called elites on Wall Street are also dumbfounded.

Dynamic memory, LCD, lithium battery, technology incubation park.

Didn't you say that this guy has no business in the United States?

If that's not a big deal, what about the oil industry? This is a standard traditional industry, right?

How much money this guy has, no one cares now. It is hard to say whether there is no one who comes after, this achievement must be unprecedented.

"Tom, is this from Bill Gates?"

"Yes, boss, they will officially release the 3.0 system tomorrow."

"Have you tested it? Are there any problems?"

"There is no problem with our software cooperation, and their system loopholes are still as many as ever."

"Well, find a computer and install the system, let me have a look."

"Okay, boss."

Watching the goods change floppy disks one by one, William White was speechless.

"Tom, they never thought about replacing this thing with a CD?"

"Boss, the price of CDROM remains high, and it is not yet ready for popularization."

"Tsk tsk, yes, by the way, have you researched that computer sound card?"

"We have seen the things of Creative, and the cost is indeed lower than ours. As for the sound effect, it is not at the same level at all."

"Well, Tom, you go there in person, first, the best is a wholly-owned acquisition, and second, regardless of success or failure, all our sound cards are OEMs, and these things can be placed on Baodao, as well as those graphics accelerator cards. "

"Okay, boss, what is your plan?"

"After so many years of technology accumulation, it's time to explode. We need to reduce the configuration appropriately, and we need to face compatible machine manufacturers."

"Tom, the CDROM is no longer that ridiculous cup holder, and, this 3.0 system, is there a CD player?"

"No, I have seen it before, and it is similar to their beta version, without essential improvement."

"Tsk, this is really true. Consider the player I wrote as a gift. It's a beta version. If you buy an office suit, you will get one for free."

"Okay, boss."

Tom left, and the boss said that he would be busy for at least a week. The most troublesome thing is that the office suits have already been shipped. If you don't hurry up, there will be delays.

The only thing he couldn't understand was why the player software didn't charge money? Even if it's $9.90.

Naturally, Tom didn't know that today's personal PC will usher in an era of rapid growth.

Besides, he wrote a piece of software purely for fun. He is very clear that the version of Windows 3.1 will have this player. What he is doing now is completely adding to Bill Gates.

William White doesn't mind tearing faces off with him if the guy is sloppy.

The operating system is the operating system, and you can add content casually, of course it is not allowed. If there is no competitor, maybe it will be nothing. With William White's preconceived ideas, Bill Gates must be cautious.

Of course, the most appropriate way is to incorporate. If you can pay the price. William White will naturally choose to cooperate here.

William White can slander System 3.0 as rubbish, but the IT industry doesn't think so. In fact, compared with the previous two generations of products, the 3.0 system is fundamentally different.

Microsoft has released the latest operating system, but the biggest beneficiary is not Big Blue.

It is also funny to say, the blue giant who sets the rules of the industry. Not only is it one step behind in the 386 project, but it is also not ahead in the 486 era.

Even if your performance is stable, your price is not expensive. What's more, the word stability is actually very broad. No matter how stable your IBM PC is, the operating system is like that, and no matter how good your hardware is, it will be free.

Today's Big Blue, talking about regrets is nonsense. If there is no decent company and Microsoft to shoulder the burden, you have to cooperate if you don't want to cooperate.

There are no permanent friends, no permanent enemies, only permanent interests. Although this sentence has been used badly, it is indeed very appropriate in today's IT market.

The relationship between Big Blue and Microsoft began to confront each other. This is no secret in the industry. With the introduction of Windows 3.0, this opposition has reached an extreme.

Instead of saying ungrateful, it is better to say jealousy, or anger from embarrassment. Obviously, although getting rid of the entanglement of anti-monopoly, Big Blue has also begun to decline. Don't talk about monopoly now, if the situation continues to deteriorate, the giants will not be able to stand it.

Of course, such a great opportunity, NBC naturally needs to publicize it.

Look, you guys are going to toss it hard, if you continue like this, maybe the blue giant will also return to the foot basin. What, the traitor is indeed in the first three rows.

Everyone knows that this kind of propaganda by NBC is not complaining for IBM at all. The reason is simple, and White Systems and IBM didn't do much to deal with it.

Then the problem is simple. People made it clear that they were beating the Ministry of Justice. Look, such an internationally competitive company is standing still. Isn't this kind of behavior of not wanting to make progress the result of your persecution?

Of course, what NBC did will not receive any kindness. Although you are speaking for IBM. However, everyone knows your attempt. To put it bluntly, isn't it just that you are worried about the Ministry of Justice's anti-monopoly investigation?

There is no need to talk about the grievances of the Ministry of Justice. You just saw IBM being passive, why didn't you expect an extra Compaq? If it weren't for antitrust reasons, what would Compaq and Microsoft be there.

Do you think that IBM is a good bird again. Isn't it what they did to seize the patented technology of Wang An Computer? You know, if you can't get this magnetic core memory technology, IBM may have rushed to the street early on.

Speaking of which, the fastest rising is Compaq. It was indeed Wang An Computer who put IBM in such a mess.

Due to William White's interference, Wang An Computer is far more powerful than it was in history. Even though there was no way to get IBM down, it made the clumsy giant very uncomfortable.

It's a pity that Old Joe switched to playing cartoons. If he is still at Apple, the personal PC market must be very interesting.

Wang An, Compaq, Apple, haha, is this a different kind of Three Kingdoms vs. Lu Bu?

It's just a pity, now that God Joe is a second-year student, if he doesn't experience some setbacks, he will still be Jobs, not the brilliant Joe.

As for Lao Wang, William White can only express regret. He had already heard that Wang An was not in good health and had already handed over the company to his son.

It is a matter of course for Chinese Americans that fathers die and sons succeed, and it is difficult to judge whether it is good or bad. It's just that he obviously didn't train his successor well.
