Reborn IT Giant

"Zheng Yan, Bill Gates' phone number."

Just when Zheng Yan was thinking about countermeasures, Li Yanran's voice suddenly came to his ears.

"You guys wait for me first, I'll be back as soon as I can."

Zheng Yan said something to Larry Ellison and Jobs, then stood up and left, but he was still thinking about the question Larry Ellison just said.

"It seems that Bill Gates already knows what happened today, and he is probably ready to beat up the loser. Netscape is probably really doomed now." Liu Wei said with emotion, and his words were full of regret for Netscape.

"Is this so surprising? Bill Gates has always been a cancer in Silicon Valley. He never misses any opportunity to attack his opponents, and the methods he uses are even more despicable. I would be surprised if he didn't jump out."

No matter at any time or on any occasion, whenever Bill Gates is mentioned, Larry Ellison never hides his disgust for him, and this time is no exception.

"Okay Larry, you don't need to talk about Bill Gates. If there is a chance to defeat Microsoft, you will not show mercy. So, you two are the same in this respect. If you really want to say the difference, that is

The gap in company strength.”

"Although Oracle is one of the largest software companies in the world, your database software only occupies 40 to 50 percent of the market. No product can do what Microsoft's operating system does, which almost monopolizes the entire market.

, you can’t deny this.”

Although it was just a joke between friends, Larry Ellison couldn't help but get excited after hearing what Jobs said.

"That's because I'm not as despicable as Bill Gates, and I don't do anything to defeat my competitors, otherwise..."

"What are you talking about? I've only been away for a while, why has it become so lively?"

Zheng Yan left quickly and came back quickly. Larry Ellison also stopped after hearing Zheng Yan's voice.

"What did Bill Gates want to do with you? Did he come up with some sinister idea to deal with Netscape?" No matter what Jobs said, it was just a joke after all. In comparison, Larry Ellison was still more concerned about Bill Gates.

dynamics.

"Nothing, still

It's about the listing of operating systems and browsers. Because Netscape's stock price is sluggish and it's obvious that it can't sustain its future, Bill Gates is preparing to change his strategy against Netscape."

"After today, everyone knows that Microsoft's browser is about to be launched, and they are full of curiosity. In this case, there is no need to use a monopoly method to promote it and leave an excuse to others. As long as it is free, you can quickly seize the market

."

Although Zheng Yan agreed to Bill Gates' strategy, he knew in his heart that if it was just free, it would be impossible to completely destroy Netscape, at least not in a short time. However, since Bill Gates proposed it, Zheng Yan also

Too lazy to argue with him.

"Look, I know that Bill Gates is the most insidious person. He is obviously full of underhanded tricks, but he still pretends to be a gentleman."

After hearing Zheng Yan's answer, Larry Ellison was very happy. He seemed to have found another excuse to attack Bill Gates, and also found support for what he just said.

"Okay Larry, if you want to see Bill Gates' dirty tricks, just wait, he will use them sooner or later. No matter how much trouble he wants to save now, the troubles will only double in the future, and they are simply unavoidable. However, after

The phone call just now reminded me of Elite Technology’s charging method.”

"Even if IM launches some charging items, the initial fee cannot be too high, just a few dollars at most. In addition, our customer group is special, and it is unrealistic to pay through online banking or credit card, so I thought

A compromise method was found.”

"For those who are already working, both online banking and credit cards are available, so we still need to retain this payment method. In addition, we can add two additional methods."

"First, IC cards are relatively common at present. We can cooperate with companies that produce IC cards, and the fees will be deducted by them. As long as we discuss the sharing method, I believe the other party will not refuse. As for the specific details, you need to discuss them.

."

"Second, we can produce some irregular serial card numbers ourselves, sell the cards to some stores, and finally get them into the hands of users. As long as the users enter the corresponding card number, we will activate the corresponding services for them."

Just when he hung up the phone, Zheng Yan realized that he had fallen into a misunderstanding. Although the payment platforms of later generations were convenient, before the payment platform became popular, there were also many game point cards.

"Zheng Yan, the serial card number you mentioned is indeed good, but isn't the IC card a bit redundant? At present, almost every household has a telephone. We can definitely cooperate with telecommunications companies. Wouldn't this save a lot of trouble?"

"At present, AT&T is the largest telecommunications company. In addition to telecommunications business, they also have Internet business. They also have some cooperation with Oracle, so things will be simpler."

"No, you can't use the home phone." Zheng Yan rejected Larry Ellison's proposal without even thinking about it.

"According to you, this is indeed much simpler, but it is also a lot of trouble. If all the people using the phone are adults, there is certainly no problem with your method. If the children at home use it secretly, it will inevitably cause us trouble."

"At present, the company is still in the development stage, and we must eliminate all factors that may have an adverse impact on the company. Of course, it is not completely eliminated. Home phones can only be bound to the IM account of the account holder, and other accounts must not be deducted.

Free service.”

"But you can rest assured that this is only temporary. It won't be long before we don't need to worry about payment methods."

Although none of the people sitting here were outsiders, Zheng Yan still didn’t say anything about the payment platform. In Zheng Yan’s plan, the payment platform will definitely be widely used in the future, but the ownership must be in his own hands.

Seeing Zheng Yan's mysterious look, no one asked any questions. After all, this was not the first time Zheng Yan had betrayed her.

"Okay, you are the boss, you have the final say on this matter. There is also the issue of charging items and charging standards. Do you have any opinions?"

"It's up to you to decide this. If it weren't for me, you can set the price lower. On the one hand, the company has just launched a fee-based program, and many people don't understand it yet. They also buy with the mentality of trying it out. If the price is high,

, they will consider whether this attempt is worth it and is not conducive to business promotion.”
