“fuck, fuck you son of a bitch!”

As soon as Steve Case tore up the letter, he went into a rage.

He never thought that a company that he looked down upon at all would actually sue America Online?!

What kind of company is America Online ? ?

The largest Internet company in the United States, even if Microsoft wants to compete with it, it has to weigh it carefully. The market value of Nasdaq is as high as 350 billion U.S. dollars!

And what about QQ International?!

Now it is somewhat famous. The previous valuation was even Even the US$1 billion was not received.

Such a company actually took America Online to court?

Did the ants shake the tree?

Steve Case couldn’t help but swear.

Then after he read the letter word for word, He tore it up and threw it into the trash can:”Goodbye, you bastard!”

The lion opened his mouth.

He actually wanted to pay 1 billion US dollars in royalties?!

Stop operating IM?

This guy Steve Case was so angry that his lungs exploded!

He didn’t take this letter seriously at all. Isn’t it just a lawyer’s letter? Can QQ International really sue him?!

“I want to see what you can do to me?”

Steve Case sneered, but the assistant who had been beside him couldn’t help but remind him:”President, QQ International has taken us to court!”

“They dragged it on, sued us, and still expect us to cooperate with them?”

“Since the expiry date of the lawsuit has not expired, we have not appeared in court and will wait until we are summoned.……”

Steve Case still knows this little trick.

“Okay, I know!”

The assistant on the side nodded, and then exited the office with a look of fear. The moment he walked out, he took a deep breath. He was still afraid that Steve Case would use him as a punching bag just now.

In the office, Steve Jeff Case looked at the QQ graphics on the computer, but he felt more and more aggrieved.

Their majestic American Online was actually reduced to the point of being sued by a small company. The key is that he really copied other people’s ideas.

In addition, the number of people online on IM these days has been setting fewer and fewer new records every day. The number of people online on IM has dropped from 20 million to 10 million today. The number of people has dropped by half.

The key is this. Among them, the number of chats has also been greatly reduced, which is completely inconsistent with the previous information data.

This is the reason why Steve Case went berserk.

The current IM has definitely been driven to a dead end by QQ. The key is to only use In less than a week, their technical team at America Online has not yet finished the Q show. After all, this program is not as easy as the interface. This requires technical content and preliminary preparations, Steve Case Completely underestimated the difficulty of developing QQ show.

Now he is riding a tiger with difficulty.

“No matter what, we have to drag it on!”

Steve Case took a deep breath and felt a bit of pressure all over his body, because everyone knows that if this continues, IM instant chat will not only fall to the third place, but also become an unmanned chat. A product that users are interested in.

There is no advantage that makes users shine. What is waiting for IM… is only the word”death”!

“Advertisements can no longer be inserted!”

“Hope we can save some users?”

Steve Case was thinking there, but the phone on the table suddenly rang.

“Who would call at this time?”

Steve Case picked up the phone, and then the voice of his old friend Pence suddenly came on the other end of the phone. He is the director of operations of Time Warner, specializing in marketing operations and advertising planning, and America Online has a cooperative relationship.

Pence is responsible for connecting many of the advertisements in IM, and the relationship between the two is quite good.

“Hi Pence!”

“Look, man, you’re in trouble! Pence

, however, did not be polite to Steve Case and said calmly:”QQ International has taken you to the New York court. We at Time Warner have received the information and are preparing to publish it in the newspaper!””

“wat? Steve

Case was in a daze:”This…how did you know about this lawsuit?””

“Also, why didn’t you stop it?!”

“Stop it from being published in the newspaper!”

Keith roared there, is this old guy showing off his head?

He kn

ew that this kind of thing could not be published in the newspaper, but he still made this phone call with himself? Is this son of a bitch trying to extort money?

“Sorry, Case, I can’t stop it!”

“Because of this, the whole country already knows about it! Pence shrugged, with a helpless expression:”I called you because I wanted to tell you that Time Warner can’t stop the spread of this story, so we just published it in the newspaper as normal!””

“……”

Steve Case was a little stunned. He didn’t understand what Pence said.

“Can’t stop it?”

“Why can’t you stop it?”

“Does the whole United States know what is going on?”

He was a little confused.

This QQ lawyer’s letter was just sent to them by the United States Online. How come everyone knows about it?

How could this ordinary lawsuit spread so quickly? Why didn’t Case do anything ? dare to believe

“It was Google, Google pushed this matter… You also know that the relationship between Google and QQ International is that they are the same boss!”

“Moreover, Yahoo also published this news on the front page!”

After Pence finished speaking, he stopped talking… He knew that some Steve Case would have a headache next.

Because once this matter gets bigger, it will not only be detrimental to the United States, but also to Steve Case. This person is also very influential!

“watthefuck!

Case just roared at that.

Google, Yahoo and QQ jointly launched a wave of their own?

He hung up the phone and opened the web page on his computer. Then on the homepages of Google and Yahoo, there was a piece of extremely important news.

【QQ International sues America Online, an instant messaging giant with a market value of 30 billion, for long-term plagiarism of product ideas and designs】!

“It is reported that the IM instant messaging software owned by Miguo Online has been suspected of plagiarizing the interface, functions and some designs of QQ International for a long time. It is also internally developing a new product launched by QQ, QQ Show… Based on this situation, QQ International has already copied Miguo International. Online filed a lawsuit in New York court, and Yahoo will broadcast the entire incident……” boom!

After Steve Case read the news, he punched his desk.

Then, the whole person suddenly curled up in pain.

This time he was really panicked.

He originally thought it was just an ordinary lawsuit from Q International, but now it has become known to everyone, and there is nothing that America Online can do if it does not appear in court… And this kind of thing is so big and uproar, for America Online , simply a fatal blow.

On the other hand, QQ International can take this opportunity to directly rise to the top.

America’s second position online is already in jeopardy

“It turns out that this son of a bitch had this idea in mind!”

“Su Zhe? It’s that Chinese guy, a yellow-skinned pig, I’m going to kill him!”

Keith roared feebly. Although he was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood, his heart was actually completely broken.

He knew that their US Online… was completely over.

Because whether they won or lost the case, Almost everyone in the United States can see that IM is plagiarized from QQ… In this way, Su Zhe is undoubtedly taking advantage of the situation.

And IM, which already has a poor reputation, will continue to make things worse.

With 10 million online users, this How much Bo can be left? Keith has no confidence at all?!

“I’m not willing to give in!”

“I’m not willing to lose like this!”

Steve Case gritted his teeth. In the end, he had to admire Su Zhe’s move, which was a one-hit kill!

The U.S. Online was definitely doomed.

Plop!

Steve Case sat down. When he got to the ground, he stared blankly in front of him. His mind was completely blank. He no longer knew how to save their Miguo Online business and M’s users…

Ding Ding Ding Ding!

The phone on his desk rang again. Get up.

Needless to say, it was from the board of directors of America Online, but Steve Case did not get up to pick it up. He no longer had the energy to deal with this matter.

He had already made plans to resign… This Bo, he has already predicted the tragic ending of the United States Online.

Anyone else would be powerless.

Because his opponent… is really too powerful!_To read the underlined version of the novel, please download Fei Lu Xiao
