Chapter 1364 WIN2.0

The United States is actually not as good as imagined.

At least for now, Yin Jun feels that the quality of Americans is just that.

He negotiated with Anna Wimble about joining the company to create a new magazine, and he took Sophie Marceau to New York for two days.

Weird news pops up in the news from time to time.

For example, in Central Park, a woman was raped in broad daylight!

Then a doctor was robbed when he went home at night. Because he refused to cooperate, he was shot directly in the heart and could not be rescued.

Compared with Yin Jun's feeling when he went to Japan several times, the security problem in the United States is very serious.

It seems that this has not changed much in 2020.

Especially for the Chinese, whose status is lower than that of the old black men, and who do not make a fuss when bullied, they gradually become one of the main targets of being bullied.

It's different in Japan. No matter how much Shintaro Ishihara looks down on the Chinese, in most places, the Japanese will maintain the most basic courtesy, and things like smashing, smashing, and robbing are still very rare. .

Developed countries in Europe are similar to Japan. Most people are polite, although they may not necessarily think highly of you.

Of course, Chinese people generally do not live a very good life in these countries.

Although it is not like what is said in the Internet joke, "I worked hard for a year and lived frugally. Finally, before going home, I dedicated the year's savings to discounted products in outlets and duty-free shops and brought them back to China. Relatives and friends, use this to show that they are living well and making money in the United States." But at least most people, they just have enough food and clothing.

But this feeling of alienation and loneliness in a foreign country can only be understood by those who have gone abroad.

Even Americans know that it is fun to sit in the square and watch singing and dancing all day long. Of course, Chinese people can also experience this feeling.

However, Sophie Marceau was still very happy. If she hadn't become so famous in the United States and had to wear sunglasses and scarves wherever she went, she would have been even happier.

And such days did not last long, because on the third day, her agent Jenny rushed over from Los Angeles and took her away from Yin Jun, half-coaxing and half-deceiving.

After the Oscar, although Sophie Marceau did not win the Oscar for Best Actress, her reputation has spread, and everyone likes this little girl with an angelic face.

Especially Sophie Marceau is French, which is so important.

Although the United States is the center of the world, 70% of the world's luxury brands are in France.

France has finally produced such a proud rose, and it is still so awesome. It was nominated for an Oscar at the age of 16. As one of our own, shouldn't we praise it?

Not to mention Chanel, which signed Sophie Marceau at the beginning of this year, its sales have soared by more than 15% in the past two months, which is considered a great victory. The star effect is already obvious.

So the day after the Oscars, the French immediately approached Qilin Culture and Sophie Marceau’s agent Jenny.

Jenny is also French, so it is naturally very convenient for everyone to communicate.

It’s just that Jenny’s vision is very high now.

Not only because Sophie Marceau has been nominated for an Oscar, but also because Sophie Marceau has become Yin Jun's woman, and her confidence is suddenly enough.

Jenny politely declined any second-tier or small brands.

Only brands that can be compared with Chanel can continue the conversation with Jenny.

For example, top luxury brands such as Gucci, Givenchy, and Dior have relatively equal status.

The conditions they offer are usually higher than those given to foreign female stars.

It just so happened that Chanel had only taken a fancy to Sophie Marceau's potential before, and the contract she signed with her was only for clothing, but not comprehensive coverage. Therefore, there is still a lot of room for manipulation in terms of handbags, perfumes, lipsticks, shoes, jewelry, etc. .

Now even if Chanel wants to raise prices and get Sophie Marceau's full endorsement, Jenny doesn't agree.

The other brands offer contracts worth more than 2 million a year, which adds up to 5 to 6 million per year, which is better than selling to one brand.

If Chanel offers more, can it still offer a one-year endorsement contract of 10 million US dollars?

And having more contracts with several world-class luxury brands will better demonstrate our Sophie Marceau’s status, right?

Jenny chose three contracts: Gucci handbags, Dior perfume, and Givenchy shoes.

In the past few days, I have signed a contract with the Gucci brand first, and then I will continue to shoot commercials for them, which will probably take about a month.

Sophie Marceau was very reluctant to separate from Yin Jun, but she remembered what Jenny had told her that she had to become the best in the world to be worthy of Yin Jun, so she didn't resist much.

Indeed, at her age, although love is the most important thing, the man she falls in love with has countless beauties around her. In order to legitimately become Mrs. Yin, her current strength is not enough.

Sophie Marceau went to work. Although she was also in New York, Yin Jun had no intention of disturbing her.

Because actually on the day of the Oscars, a software company called Microsoft released a PC operating system to the world at the Global Electronic Technology Conference in Los Angeles.

They call it WINDOWS2.0, or WIN2.0 for short.

Before the 1980s, personal computers had actually appeared.

Fairchild, for example, has many patents and ideas for personal PC computers.

Gang Leader Qiao’s mouse is an idea he got from Fairchild.

But at that time, personal computers were more accurately called computers because they didn’t have many functions.

Still Big Blue - IBM changed that.

After IBM launched its own PC computer, everyone began to imitate IBM's computer, that is, clone its PC architecture and make their own computers.

Gradually, PC hardware architecture became unified.

Everyone discovered the benefits of unified production of parts.

In this way, they can be replaced with each other. If a computer breaks down, you can buy the same parts from other computer companies to replace them, instead of just waiting for the products of this company.

If it really can't be used, you can also remove the parts that are not broken and use them on another computer again.

It is precisely this computer market that is gradually unifying hardware that urgently needs an operating software suitable for everyone.

Where can I find the operating software?

Of course, it still depends on what the big brother IBM uses.

Whatever IBM uses, we will use.

Coincidentally, IBM chose Microsoft to write key operating system software for their PCs because of Bill Gates' mother.

This was a turning point in Microsoft's fate.

It was precisely because of this opportunity that they were able to embark on a great journey.

At that time, time was very tight, and the procedures for making the system were very urgent. Microsoft had no time to develop it from scratch, so it spent 50,000 US dollars to buy a DOS operating system from a programmer.

It was then processed, rewritten and upgraded by a group of technical staff such as Paul Allen, and finally handed over to IBM.

This operating system is called Microsoft DOS, also commonly known as WIN1.0.

Because WIN1.0 was promoted by IBM, many manufacturers gradually began to use it.

In addition, Microsoft is constantly upgrading and patching loopholes. Among a group of operating systems, it is considered the best to use, so the market share has continued to rise in the past two years, reaching more than 20%.

This was before.

Now that WIN2.0 is out, everyone initially thought it would be a simple upgrade.

As soon as the phone was turned on, everyone was surprised.

Because Microsoft actually turned the operating system into a window graphics operation instead of the input command operation of WIN1.0 before!

The so-called input command operation is just like those computer engineers of later generations. You have to enter the corresponding code, and then the files and programs you want will come out and then you can use them.

It's different now. Microsoft's WIN2.0 directly turns the computer's main page into a window form, which is commonly known as a graphical user interface, allowing users to see program and file names simply and clearly, which greatly facilitates ordinary people's work. use.

To put it simply, elementary school students can hold a mouse and use it.

This is very convenient for the popularization of computers, unlike the previous ones, which required people with certain computer knowledge to operate them.

And equipped with Intel's latest chip, WIN2.0 runs very fast. You can execute the program by clicking the mouse continuously, and you no longer have to wait for such a long time.

In this way, of course, the threshold for using computers is greatly reduced.

The benefit of lowering the threshold for use is naturally to allow more people to use computers, and then the spring for computer manufacturers will come!

think about it!

How many primary school students, middle school students, and college students are there in the United States?

If hundreds of millions of people can use computers, what kind of huge market share will there be?

And Europe, Asia...

The market of billions of users in the future is so mouth-watering! !

With this understanding, Microsoft's WIN2.0 booth was first occupied by computer manufacturers. They nervously and eagerly asked about the various features of WIN2.0, technical problems, maintenance and upgrades, etc.

There are even impatient computer businessmen who have begun to bargain with Bill Gates.

They are thinking that if their computers can be installed with WIN 2.0 for sale, so that children can use computers to learn knowledge, sales will definitely increase significantly.

Anyway, the wool comes from the sheep, just add the price of the operating system.

After all, computers now represent a new world and are the direction of future development. Parents are willing to let their children learn even if they spend a little more money.

What's more, the variety of payment methods in the United States, such as credit cards, installment payments, etc., all contribute to Americans' bold consumption even if they have no money.

In a word, the spring of computers has officially arrived, and those who do not seize the opportunity are fools! !
