The harshest criticism comes from Yale University’s image master Edward Tuft.

This person is quite good at talking. He believes that this PPT is an anti-human software, which raises the form to content, so that people only pay attention to PPT, but ignores doing good projects. PPT is a tool to encourage people to brag. When the layman looked at PPT, he really felt that he really understood, and invested a lot of money to support the project. What's even ridiculous is that he even said that PPT also bears certain responsibility for the Columbia space shuttle crash in 2003. The reason is very ridiculous. At that time, PPT had been widely used, and the brief and clear style made the communication of problems simpler, but it also made it impossible to present some technical problems deeply. If it was a long discussion, it was obvious that PPT was not the most appropriate principle, so some crucial technical problems were covered up under the optimistic slideshow.

So, something happened to the plane!

The members of the entire PPT collection, with countless success stories, extended sincere greetings to Edward. This is simply a stolen thing, and the criticism is even more unreasonable. A software that was originally convenient for everyone to use, attributed the error to the developer because of the user's problems.

However, the magical thing is that the development team did not greet Edward, and Gaskins did not even argue about it. He said that all of what Tuft said is absolutely correct. PPT is actually very simple and completely neutral. It depends on how the user operates it, and people often use PPT very wrongly.

Gaskins reminded those who questioned him that PPT presentations should never be the whole content of a proposal or plan. They are just a simple summary of mature long content. He took the software's original business plan as an example: this repeatedly discussed plan has 53 pages, and the corresponding slideshow only lists the key content, with only a dozen of them in total.

He complained that since the PPT was established, many business people stopped writing documents. They were just writing presentations, which were just outlines without details and lacked support. Many people did not like the mental labor of writing detailed documents. And after entering office software and tied to OFFICE, people have long become familiar with each other. As projectors become smaller and cheaper, almost every room is ready to play PPT.

To put it bluntly, I developed this software for convenience. For example, if you have to compress the content of a thousand words into one hundred words, there will definitely be content loss. This is not our problem, it is your laziness problem.

Moreover, Gaskins was very disgusted with such a thing. Although he did not defend himself, Gaskins did not agree to imposing some false charges on PPT. Gaskins studied the large number of presentations collected before designing this software.

Gaskins would use this software, but he didn't think he was a master. He didn't even know many of the new advanced features, and was disgusted by the practice of some people spending hours adjusting font sizes and fonts under the disguise of actually working.

This person is also a miracle. His route on the road of developing software is very strange. He did not devote a lot of energy to making money. Although he did make a lot of money, he left Microsoft in the 1990s to work on his own projects. For all the developer meetings, Gaskins was meticulous, stormless and did not pull him down for a day. He hoped to keep up with the young people's ideas. Later, he worked for Apple. Although he thought that Apple also needed a high-end software like PPT, he did not think it needed to be put into practice.

Austin, another partner of Gaskins, is dedicated to studying PPT at the same time, but both are in the type of unwilling to express themselves.

Lin Qi of course believes that PPT is not a perfect tool, but this tool is definitely a convenient tool that is conducive to the external introduction and promotion of many projects. Let the project leader learn to convince customers. In essence, if this tool is used well, it will help improve people's communication efficiency.

Of course, if you don’t use it well, you are prone to indulging in PPT bragging, and your plan will always stay on PPT, rather than putting it into practice.

Even so, PPT is still a good application software and has broad commercial prospects in the future.

In later generations, even those from Internet companies and financial companies, who came out to promote products and investment plans, and well-made PPTs are often plus points for projects. It can be seen that there is no need to worry about the prospects of PPT in this direction.

"You have to think about it. Making software is a long-term process and it may not require much technical strength. After all, this area is temporarily a market gap and there is still some time to develop. More importantly, how to handle the customer's experience."

Lin Qi thought about it and said, "This kind of software can integrate pictures and texts well. In the future, it should become an important tool for courseware and project introduction... More importantly, PPT can form a strong complementary relationship with Pangu office software. By the way...and the hardware aspect! PPT is definitely not only displayed on computers, but also requires larger display screens such as projectors, large-screen TVs, etc.! Therefore, you can talk to the display team of Xinzengwen Electronics Group about technical cooperation between software and hardware. These large-screen hardware should also become a must-have for exhibitions, conference rooms, classrooms, etc. in the future! In short... I think this direction of PPT in the future! The market is no less than 10 billion US dollars per year!"

After Lin Qi's words, Wang Lie felt bad. These plans were just a prototype in his mind, and perfection did not take into account such detailed considerations.

"Mr. Lin, you are really awesome. After you said this, I seem to have a new idea. As for customer experience, Wang'an printer generation is working hard on this area. There is definitely no problem. And I am confident that Pangu 2.0 office software can receive unanimous praise, why can't the newly developed products work?"

"There are also projectors and other projects. If there are cost-effective solutions, we are also preparing to purchase them! You can even buy projectors and send them to Pangu office and PPT software!"

Wang Lie's words suddenly became bold, and Lin Qi's words gave him great inspiration.

"Okay, since you have made up your mind, I will definitely support you. Do it if you want to. The future of Wang'an's computer is in you. If you have to make up your mind, you will inevitably make mistakes in the process, but without trying, you will not even have the chance to make mistakes."
