Chapter 641 Coming soon

When you have a prejudice against a person, you will never be happy with that person no matter how you look at him.

Just like Sakurako Yasuda looking at Chen Li!

To be fair ~ Yasuda Sakurako dislikes Chen Li as a partner, she can even be said to hate her.

However, this is how it is in the business world. Driven by enough interests, personal preferences have no meaning at all.

In other words, whether Sakurako Yasuda likes or dislikes her, it has nothing to do with whether she is willing to cooperate with Chen Li.

After all, making money is the last word!

In fact, it’s not just Sakurako Yasuda, there are many such things in the business world. It can even be said that this is the norm in the business world.

As long as you make money, it doesn't matter what you hate or like!

Originally, Chen Li should be like this, but he was not.

Of course~ Although people like Chen Li, whose personal preferences are greater than making money from business, make Yasuda Sakurako angry, but from another aspect, it is not a good thing.

If Chen Lizhen were a little fox, then it would be very difficult for Sakurako Yasuda to achieve her goal.

And although people like Chen Li are indeed very unpleasant, they might be much easier to deal with.

Of course, the premise is that Sakurako Yasuda can admit Chen Li's rudeness.

Regarding this point, Yasuda Sakurako still did a good job. Even though she was so angry with Chen that she was almost smoking, she still stabilized her mind and faced the annoying young man in front of her with a smile and sincerity.

As for Chen Li, he is actually quite happy.

To be honest, although Sakurako Yasuda is quite good at nourishing her Qi, Chen Li can still see a trace of unnaturalness on her face.

Uh~ This made Chen Li's originally unhappy mood suddenly become better.

It's not that Chen Li deliberately bullied the other party. In fact, with his current strength, he couldn't bully the other party.

But what can I say~ Since you want something, you must give something up.

Sakurako Yasuda wants to make an ideal idea, and her abacus-like voice can be heard even if she doesn't come to the island country.

So. Hehehe~!

"Sister Wu, I'll leave it to you to take care of the island country's affairs!"

"No problem~Boss!"

"By the way~ Congratulations to the boss, I'm going back this time. The boss's net worth will skyrocket again!"

Wu Minyi smiled and nodded, and this mature and beautiful woman smiled. She still had a unique charm.

It's a pity that this person didn't leave a good impression on Chen Li at first, which caused Chen Li to smile more or less unnaturally every time he saw Wu Minyi smile.

As for the "congratulations" Wu Minyi said, she was naturally talking about the upcoming Red Pony Technology.

What's more outrageous is that the launch date of Red Pony Technology is set on the first day of the Lunar New Year.

In Ma Xiaoyun’s words, it’s a celebration during the Spring Festival!

But Chen Li was speechless about this!

Because as one of the company's major shareholders, he must go to Nasdaq!

In fact, the first thing they said was for him to ring the bell with Ma Xiaoyun and Zhou Hongyi. At this point, I have to mention that Chen Li had a misunderstanding before.

He always thought that the so-called Nasdaq bell-ringing ceremony was really about ringing the bell there.

Hmm~ That's right, Chen Li always thought that there was a bell at the Nasdaq trading center. Every time a company wanted to go public there, it would hold a ceremony and then strike it with a hammer to represent that company.

The company is officially listed and can conduct normal transactions.

Moreover, the bell that Chen Li recognized was a big bell in a traditional Chinese temple.

Before, Chen Li felt strange and asked why he had such a bell-ringing ceremony even though he was a foreigner.

Later, Chen Li found out that this was not the case at all. The so-called ringing of the bell was actually the bell of the clock.

The origin of this thing seems to be unclear. Anyway, this ritual has been going on since the establishment of Nasdaq.

And the most ridiculous thing is that today's Nasdaq actually has no real clock to ring, it is just an electronic button.

So~ the actual bell ringing ceremony is actually nothing!

But the meaning behind this ceremony is more important, because once the button is pressed, many people think that they are about to become rich.

To put it bluntly, the bell-ringing ceremony is basically equated with money!

As one of the three founders of Red Pony Technology, Chen Li naturally has to take part in this bell-ringing ceremony.

However, Chen Li had always wanted to develop in a low-key manner, so Chen Li naturally refused in his heart for this kind of scene that was destined to leave an impression or even become a classic scene in the future.

In addition, the bell-ringing ceremony was set on the first day of the Lunar New Year, so Chen Li’s first reaction was not to go!

Although the bell-ringing ceremony is the most glorious moment for a company, Chen Li knows very well that as a system and rebirth double BUFF player, he will never lack the opportunity to ring the bell as long as he is willing.

It's just that Chen Li doesn't want to be so high-profile.

Therefore, Chen Li rejected Ma Xiaoyun's invitation, and the two even had a somewhat unpleasant quarrel.

Of course, this unhappiness is not because there is any problem in the relationship between the two, it is just a simple quarrel.

After all, in Ma Xiaoyun's view, Chen Li is definitely the most important part of Red Pony Technology. If Chen Li didn't participate in such a big event as the bell ringing ceremony, is he planning to leave Red Pony Technology?

To be honest~ In fact, with the development of Red Pony Technology to this point, the weight of Chen Li and the team behind him in the company is no longer as important as before.

It’s not that it’s not important, it’s just that it’s not as indispensable as before!

Regarding the previous Red Pony Technology, both Ma Xiaoyun and Zhou Hongyi must admit that the team behind Chen Li is actually the real soul.

But now. To put it bluntly, even without Chen Li and the team behind him, Red Pony Technology can still gain a foothold in the industry.

After all, Hongma Technology has spent a lot of money in recruiting soldiers and horses in the past two years. For this reason, the company has not even carried out dividends.

In fact, there was nothing to divide. Chen Li basically took away most of the early profits from Hongma Technology.

Of course ~ Chen Li left the money in Hongma Technology at that time, and it was not until early last year that Hongma Technology raised funds that Chen Li took the money away.

Last year was the most rapid development year for Hongma Technology!

This year, Hongma Technology Troika has been advancing hand in hand.

Security software ~ search engines and office software that made Yinshan software a mess.

Yes~ Because after Chen Li exchanged various office software from the system, they were modified by Xiao Meng Mo and then polished by Hongma Technology, and then they exploded!

This explosion is about market reaction!

You must know that although Yinshan Software is considered the oldest software company in China, in fact, most of its office software is actually a copycat of Microsoft's Office series.

But the office software of Hongma Technology is different. Although it is also a copycat, Chen Li redeemed it from the system.

The most ridiculous thing is that the office software of Hongma Technology is a copycat of office software produced more than ten or twenty years later. At this point in time in 2000, it is not a copycat, but an original.

In other words, Yinshan Software is still racking its brains to think about how to make a difference in Microsoft Office series software, but Red Horse Technology has directly opened a new track.

Originally, this was actually a very difficult thing!

Because at present, most domestic industry practitioners are actually more accustomed to Microsoft's operating model.

If you want these people to change their more familiar operating habits, unless Hongma Technology's office software has obvious advantages in operation and effects.

But this is actually very difficult to achieve in a short period of time. Even if it can be done, the manpower, material and financial resources required will definitely be a huge expense.

And there is a big problem in the software industry, and that is copyright!

A certain company has worked so hard to develop a piece of software, but it may not even have recouped the cost, and pirated software may have spread all over the world, which has made many people even more reluctant to think about independent research and development.

Rather than doing research and development yourself, it is better to copy others.

Therefore, you can find a very obvious Microsoft style in the early office software of Yinshan Company.

Hmm~ This is Chen Li’s understanding from his past life and his previous life.

But in fact, when Red Pony Technology really got involved in the office software industry, Chen Li realized that there was actually a very complicated relationship between the two companies Yinshan and Microsoft.

For a long time, Chen Li has always felt that Yinshan Software's office series is actually plagiarizing Microsoft's office software.

But in fact~ Yinshan Software's early office software was indeed independently developed by it, and it once occupied the entire Chinese market.

Of course, at that time, the Chinese market was actually very small, so Yinshan Software’s influence was relatively limited.

However, with the improvement of China's economic level and the gradual popularization of domestic computers, it was originally a good opportunity for Yinshan Company to expand the company's development scale, but at this time, Microsoft took a fancy to the Chinese market.

At that time, China's office software market was almost completely controlled by Yinshan Software. It was not easy for Microsoft to steal from Yinshan Software.

For this reason, Microsoft planned to acquire Yinshan Company at a high price, but was rejected.

Later, Microsoft invited Yinshan Company with high salary, intending to poach Yinshan Company's talents in related industries, but this move still hit a wall.

But soon Yinshan Company encountered a huge crisis.

At that time, the Pangu office system that they spent huge sums of money to develop directly encountered a cold reception in the market.

After the successful development of the Pangu system, Rebus was full of confidence and even threatened that this move could change the entire computer industry.

But when Pangu Office System was launched, they found that the gap between the reality and their imagination was ridiculously large.

It is said that more than half a month after Yinshan Company's advertisement promoting the Pangu system was published, someone even called Yinshan Company to ask what the Pangu system was.

Yes~those people simply can’t play with this so-called Pangu office system!

To put it bluntly, the so-called Pangu Office System is actually what a group of technical geeks made what they wanted.

But the problem is that this thing is not what the market wants.

The cold reception from Pangu Office Systems was a huge blow to Yinshan Company!

You must know that in order to develop the Pangu Office System, they even stopped the research and development of WPS, which the company had previously dominated in the software market!

This step almost sent Yinshan Company into an abyss!

At that time, because Yinshan Company was fully committed to the research and development of the Pangu system, WPS's market share was getting lower and lower.

Coupled with the invasion of Microsoft, Yinshan Company is under attack everywhere.

But even so, Yinshan Company still invested a full three years in Pangu system, and it was these three years that directly led to the rise of Microsoft Office series software in China.

Because in 1996, Microsoft directly approached Yinshan Company and hoped to share the WPS format with Microsoft.

At that time, Chinese software companies had no experience competing with foreign software companies.

I very "simply" thought that this was the best opportunity to get up close and learn about Microsoft, so I agreed to the proposal.

The two parties signed an agreement and read each other's files through the RTF format of the middle layer of their own software.

In other words, Yinshan WPS users can use Word to edit WPS format files.

But this will also unconditionally open the WPS format, which has "natural monopoly", to Microsoft.

In fact, from this moment on, it also means that Yinshan Company has handed over the initiative to Microsoft.

What surprised Yinshan even more was that not long after the agreement was signed, Microsoft released Windows 97.

The release of Windows 97 also announced the end of the DOS system.

The most outrageous thing is that Microsoft announced that Word will be bundled with Windows 97.

What's even more outrageous is that due to Pangu's failure, Yinshan Software had not yet had time to research WPS products adapted to Windows 97.

They can only watch as the original WPS users choose Word while using Windows 97.

Yinshan WPS, which previously occupied a large market share, handed over this market to Microsoft almost overnight.

Then, Yinshan Company, which suffered setbacks, had to find another way. They first made a game, the famous "Zhongguancun Apocalypse".

But at that time, the domestic game market was not very mature, so Yinshan Company quickly focused its attention elsewhere, that is.

Silver Mountain Drug Tyrant!

According to the original timeline, Yinshan Company should have achieved a major comeback with the help of Yinshan Drug Tyrant.

But the problem is that this time they encountered the Red Pony security software series launched by Red Pony Technology.

With Red Pony Technology's big move of free software, Yinshan Software was almost pushed into a desperate situation.

Finally, the founder of the company stepped forward, and the other party retreated again and directly built a WPS2000.

This time, WPS2000 actually has a very strong Microsoft style.

Because there was no other way. At that time, Microsoft's office software almost cannibalized the entire office software market, so Yinshan had no choice but to compromise.

If we follow the trajectory of its previous life, WPS2000 should actually be a great success.

But this time, they still bumped into Red Pony Technology.

Chen Li redeemed those office software from the system and directly used the so-called WPS2000 in seconds, leaving nothing but scum.

Then Yinshan Software became the last piece of the puzzle before Red Pony Technology went public.

Yes~ Just the day before, Red Pony Technology officially acquired Yinshan Software, an established domestic software company, and officially became a giant in the domestic software industry!

So, there is absolutely nothing wrong with Wu Minyi’s words!
