Chapter 26 Force Bill Gates away ()

Paul Allen thought that after having cash, he could do more things he wanted to do, or invest in other companies with more potential than Microsoft. The most important thing is that he would immediately own a luxury yacht if he had money! Looking at the luxurious environment around him, he smelled the intoxicating perfume smell on the beautiful woman......

Paul Allen took a breath, thought calmly, and said, "Mr. Zhang, Microsoft's stocks have no meaning to me anymore! I can sell them to you immediately, but you must pay cash! As long as you give me 600 million US dollars, I will agree to this transaction!" Microsoft's stock price has fallen to 100 US dollars, and Zhang Bixuan is willing to pay twice the price to buy the stocks in his hands. In Paul Allen's opinion, he has not suffered any loss at all.

Zhang Bixuan smiled and said, "Very good! You are very smart. I hope you have $600 million to re-found a company with more potential than Microsoft!"

The next day, Zhang Bixuan, who owns 51% of Microsoft shares, announced that he had successfully acquired Microsoft and asked for a shareholders' meeting. At this time, people had not yet reported that the aftermath of the stock market crash was the most concerned topic among Americans. The mainstream American media just mentioned it slightly in a very remote corner that a company named Microsoft was acquired by Chinese Zhang Bixuan.

At this time, Microsoft was only a medium-sized company, far from becoming the Microsoft empire with a market value of hundreds of billions. However, Zhang Bixuan used to frequently become the major shareholder of dozens of listed companies, and then acquired Microsoft, an influential software industry, which also made many slightly smaller companies feel in danger. An article titled "Beware of the wolf from the East, you may be his next acquisition target!" in the Wall Street Journal reflects the attitude of Americans towards him.

At the long conference table, Zhang Bixuan sat in the chairperson position, and other heavyweights in early Microsoft companies were Bill Gates, Paul Allen, Steve Balmer, etc. Dozens of other backbone employees of Microsoft were sitting in the lower class, and everyone looked at the owner of the new Microsoft company and the former dominant of Microsoft company Bill Gates.

Bill Gates looked at Zhang Bixuan, who was sitting in his position with an ugly expression, and roared angrily: "Oh, damn it! This is a conspiracy, Microsoft is mine! It's mine! You shameful person, you plundered my results!" He waved his fists and wanted to punch Chang Bixuan in the nose. However, seeing the burly bodyguards behind Zhang Bixuan, he held back and just punched the conference table with a "bang!"

Then, Bill Gates pointed his anger at Paul Allen and said, "And you! Why do you secretly betray me and betray Microsoft! You are a traitor, a very shameful betrayal of Microsoft! Yes, only I am qualified to be the master of Microsoft. If I leave Microsoft, then Microsoft will be nothing!"

Paul Allen angrily said: "I am also one of the founders of Microsoft. I am qualified to sell stocks to anyone. Do I have to ask your consent from Lord Bill Gates for anything I do?"

Bill Gates yelled angrily like a wounded beast: "You wait! If I leave Microsoft, then Microsoft is just an ordinary software company! And I only need 100 employees, and I can create another Microsoft in a short time! At that time, you, the conspirator, will get nothing, and all the money you invested will be turned into waste paper!"

Zhang Bi asked with a smile: "Is that true? I really want to know what direction will Microsoft without Bill Gates develop! Do you think your business vision is strong, or your programming level is better than that of the professors of the School of Computer Science in the University? At least there are two people present who are better than you! Mr. Paul Allen is better than you in programming level, and Balmer is also better than you in business level! I really don't know how capable a college dropout is!"

Bill Gates sneered: "You are not as good as me. It is said that you haven't even finished high school!"

Most employees remain silent, hoping that the battle between the two ex-boys and the current company owners will not affect themselves.

Balmer slapped the table and said, "Everyone calm down. This is a shareholders' meeting, not a place for quarrels! I think everyone wants to see Microsoft become stronger, rather than let Microsoft die before it has been brilliant! Microsoft, Microsoft, Microsoft! For Microsoft, please calm down?"

At Microsoft, Balmer is probably the employee's favorite executive, and no one doubts his feelings for the company.

He set up a development strategy of "software is service" for Microsoft to develop, requiring huge investments, and it may also receive generous returns. However, if no one supports it, Internet services may be in trouble.

He is not a natural leader, but his heavy voice and abundant energy make him stand out. His dancing is average. His methods and vision are equally wise. He later took advantage of the successful release of www.piaotian.com and successfully diverted people's attention from the antitrust bill, but new products usually require further adjustments after they are released.

Balmer is synonymous with passionate speakers in the industry. Compared with him, most companies' CEO speeches tend to appear dull. However, Microsoft's current CEO Steve Balmer is not just a fanatical cheerleader, his business talent and market intuition are equally outstanding.

The most eye-catching feature of Microsoft's later ceo Steve Balmer is that it is "easy to be excited". When excited, Balmer is used to emphasize everything three times. "When www.piaotian.comet Internet services technology also used a new slogan: In a video clip that is widely circulated on the Internet, Balmer used his charming voice to repeatedly shout "developers" more than 14 times on the podium of the Microsoft conference. In response, he said in a rare low-key manner in his recent conversation: "I gave them a speech, and I was excited by them."

In Zhang Bixuan's mind, 10 Bill Gates are not as important as Balmer!

"Mr. Zhang! Maybe your money is several times more than everyone in our company combined. You spent money to buy Microsoft to make an investment, right? I don't think you need to hold so many Microsoft stocks! Under the leadership of Mr. Gates, Microsoft's performance is booming. We can provide you with satisfactory returns to your investment, but I hope you don't hold Microsoft!" said a Microsoft technician.

Zhang Bixuan refused coldly: "No, the purpose of my board meeting today is to announce that I have become the master of Microsoft! Gates will either work for me or get out of here! I don't need someone to challenge my authority!"

Bill Gates sneered: "The companies you Chinese have always opened can only be brilliant for a short time! Look at the computer king Wang An! A good computer kingdom is already in the evening. Microsoft will not end well when you fall into your hands! I will not come to the company in the future, nor will I attend the board of directors of this software company that has no hope!"

The board of directors that ended in an upset ended with Bill Gates leaving Microsoft. Only a few employees followed Bill Gates and Balmer did not leave Microsoft. Zhang Bixuan happily appointed Balmer as the president of Microsoft.

Microsoft stocks fluctuated significantly in the stock market for a period of time. Zhang Bixuan knew that Bill Gates maliciously sold Microsoft stocks. In the next few days, major economic newspapers and magazines mocked Zhang Bixuan for doing something stupid in an unprecedented sarcastic tone. Some retail investors who did not know the truth joined the ranks of selling Microsoft stocks.

While Zhang Bixuan silently acquired the stocks that Bill Gates said he was selling in the stock market, he organized technical personnel to write dos4.0 and www.piaotian.comdowww.piaotian.comdowww.piaotian.comdowww.piaotian.comdowww.piaotian.comdowww.piaotian.comdowww.piaotian.comdowww.piaotian.comdowww.piaotian.comdowww.piaotian.comdowww.piaotian.comdowww.piaotian.comdowww.piaotian.comdowww.piaotian.comdowww.piaotian
