Chapter 315 Goodbye Gates

Of course, Bill Gates also knew that it was impossible to buy PS Paint software from people like Jester, so he just asked.

After Jester got the news that Bill Gates was waiting for him in the lounge, he hurriedly left the venue after the on-site question and answer session and walked towards the lounge. Bill Gates had not contacted him before, that is to say , this time the other party will not come because of official business.

Thinking about these things, Jester came to the lounge, pushed the door open, and happened to see Bill Gates sitting on the sofa.

Bill Gates is now in his early thirties, but it may be because his face does not show his age, so in Jester’s opinion, he is at most twenty-seven or eighty years old. He is wearing a simple T-shirt and a With ordinary eyes and short blond hair, he looks very capable. He didn't come alone, he also brought a female companion.

Seeing Jester push the door and enter, Bill Gates also stood up immediately.

He hurried up to meet him, and Jester also opened his arms to each other, and then the two hugged each other. Essentially, Jester and Bill Gates are both the youngest billionaires reported by Forbes magazine. One of the richest people, and a millionaire, right? .nsb.om And both parties also admire each other, especially Bill Gates. He has inexplicable admiration for Jester's eyes that seem to be able to see the future. . There is no direct competitive relationship, and they can cooperate extremely well, so the two of them are naturally very good friends.

"My girlfriend, Melinda."

After hugging Jester, Bill Gates put on a warm smile and extended his hand to introduce Jester. Only then did Jester take a closer look at the blond woman standing next to Jester. To be honest, , Melinda is not beautiful, and may not even be considered a beauty in Jester's eyes. He didn't know why Bill Gates fell in love with him.

"I don't need to introduce this one, the youngest billionaire in the United States and a young entrepreneurial leader, Jester Lee." Bill Gates' introduction was obviously directed at Melinda beside him.

Jester also extended his hand to Melinda. This woman, who was not very old, probably about the same age as herself, took a careful look at Jester, and then reached out to shake Jester's hand. Bill Gates was still introducing the woman next to him as if to show off: "Li, this is the only female MBA in our Microsoft! You must know that he came to our company last year, and he was only twenty-two years old. Twenty-two years old mba!"

"hehe."

Jester smiled and didn't say, in fact, Claudia was similar, but Claudia just graduated from Cambridge. "Why didn't you give me any news this time so that I could make preparations?"

After sitting down again, Jester asked Bill Gates with a smile, and Bill Gates smiled indifferently. He answered simply: "Actually, I just wanted to relax with Melinda this time. I heard about your carnival and came here. I originally wanted to get together with you after visiting, but I didn’t expect that your place is so popular or the reports were beyond my expectation. If I were asked to queue up, it might be a waste of money. It’s been a long time.”

"That's it?"

Jester was unmoved. He didn't believe that people like Bill Gates came to him for just this kind of thing.

Sure enough, after hearing Jester's words. Bill Gates smiled and said in a joking tone: "I knew I couldn't hide it from you. In fact, the main reason is that I want to take a rest. I have been very tired from work these days, and I also like you very much. game, so I’m here to support you. Of course, I still have some things to tell you about the visual operating system.”

Hearing what Bill Gates said, Jester raised his eyebrows. He hasn't paid much attention to external affairs recently, and he is not well-informed about a lot of information, but he still knows about some major events. It only took him more than ten seconds. Jester thought of a report he saw about IBM's new policy when he was casually flipping through the newspaper. This report was not unique. In fact, it was in the world before rebirth that Jester was familiar with. Here, IBM has done this before.

And the price they paid for doing this was to cut themselves off from the people. This was also the beginning of their decline.

"You're talking about the IBM incident." Jester asked tentatively.

Bill Gates didn't answer, just nodded.

Then, he saw that Jester was silent, and Jester was still deep in thought. He admired Jester's vision very much, so he was looking forward to Jester's answer. It didn't mean that he had to rely on Jester. What is Jester's answer? Bill Gates is extremely confident in himself. He has made his own decision and will never be easily influenced by others. He just wants to ask Jester if he is a hero. Slightly the same.

"I mean……"

Jester glanced at Bill Gates who was looking at him, and then showed a very relaxed smile. He leaned back slightly and leaned his back on the soft sofa backrest to make himself comfortable. Just now The question-and-answer session and the previous preparations made him still feel a little tired. He smiled and continued: "Bill, actually you already have the answer in your heart. IBM will not have good results if they do this in a few years." If we did this before, there might still be a future, but at that time they opened up the excuses and parameters, allowing countless compatible companies to take advantage of this opportunity to jump up. Now these companies have gained momentum, and their combined market share is more than It is much bigger than IBM. Under such circumstances, if IBM still wants to close itself off, what will happen?"

As he spoke, Jester seemed to have thought of something, but he was not a computer person and did not know the inside story of these computer productions clearly. Therefore, he asked Bill Gates curiously: "How did Apple choose of?"

Hearing Jester mention Apple, Bill Gates's eyes lit up.

For Bill Gates, Apple can be said to be his most important opponent, but their current prospects are not optimistic. What makes Bill Gates most excited is Apple's choice.

"They rejected Compaq's offer of IBM-compatible machines and are still using their closed system... This time, they are going to be completely ruined. They cannot see the future of the enterprise and there is no need to exist..." He said, There was even a glint of extreme excitement in Bill Gates's eyes.

After hearing Bill Gates' answer, Jester also sighed. Sure enough, although history has changed, Apple does not seem to be affected by this change. They still chose to remember Jester. The choice in the story was exactly the same, which made Jester lament the greatness of historical inertia. Even though Jobs had been kicked out of Apple in advance, Apple still made the same choice.

However, Jester, who later knew Apple's future, would naturally not be as direct as Bill Gates thought.

Therefore, Jester just shook his head and said in disapproval: "Bill, although I think Apple may suffer heavy losses due to their intransigence this time, but no, not participating in the Compatible Computer Alliance will naturally have benefits. It will be very difficult for Apple, but it is not impossible to save it."

It was strange to hear Jester say this to Bill Gates. He didn't understand why Jester said that, because the current situation is right in front of him. Even a giant like IBM, as long as it dares to compete with compatible computers If they fight against the general trend, it will not end in a bad death. A mere apple is nothing. Although they have developed well in recent years, they have already begun to show signs of fatigue. Moreover, compared with IBM, Apple is nothing but a worm. That’s all.

The things here are complicated, and Jester doesn’t want to say too much, and Apple’s re-emergence has many accidental factors. It’s impossible for him to tell Bill Gates everything, so Jester just shook his head. Perfunctorily, Bill Gates said: "Have you forgotten that there is a person at Apple who can turn decay into magic?"...

Hearing what Jester said, Bill Gates' eyebrows suddenly raised.

Many people know that the relationship between Bill Gates and Jobs is not good. In fact, the relationship between Jobs and many people in the industry is not good. Of course, Bill Gates knows that what Jester said is that for Jobs’ talent, Bill Gates naturally admires him. He is a well-deserved top product manager in the world. There is no doubt that Bill Gates will never belittle himself.

He considers himself a top product manager even better than Steve Jobs.

"The thief?"

Bill Gates said something disdainfully. After hearing what Bill Gates said, Jester couldn't help but smile. He didn't expect that the relationship between Bill Gates and Jobs was so bad.

But for Bill Gates, it seems inappropriate for him to call Steve Jobs a thief.

It's very simple. Although the visual operating system in the Macintosh computer was stolen by Jobs, Bill Gates' own win1.0 was also stolen from the Macintosh. The two of them are the same, and no one has the right to criticize the other. Yes, of course, Jester would not say that in front of Bill Gates. After all, he and Bill Gates are friends, and he and Jobs have nothing to do with each other. Not only do they have nothing to do with each other, they even have a relationship with the previous Pixar studio. , being secretly intercepted by Jobs, made Jester very dissatisfied.

But...

Jester didn't have a good impression of Apple and Apple fans in his last life, but if there was a chance in this world, how could he give Apple another chance to make a comeback?
