312【PHS press conference】

When Microsoft first entered China, it proposed to acquire Kingsoft. In 1995, it also sent Qiu Bojun an invitation letter with an annual salary of US$750,000.

In 1995, China had an annual salary of US$750,000.

These keywords are quite scary to connect, which shows how Microsoft attaches importance to Qiu Bojun. Of course, it only attaches importance to Qiu Bojun's technology, and Microsoft never takes Kingsoft seriously.

Before Bill Gates left China this time, Microsoft people came to him and proposed to buy 60% of Kingsoft's equity for US$3 million.

Qiu Bojun refused on the spot, but did not call Song Weiyang and Zhang Xuanlong to discuss.

The ending of Microsoft's acquisition of Kingsoft is conceivable. From then on, PS has been hidden and all programmers have become Microsoft's coders, which is unacceptable to Qiu Bojun.

But the domestic media have been hyping up and are all content with smugness, and regards Microsoft's acquisition of Kingsoft as a great thing to promote our country's power. Look, Bill Gates has even put out an olive branch, which shows that our country's software companies are very powerful!

Lei Jun immediately held a press conference and said that Kingsoft will never accept foreign investment and Kingsoft will shoulder the banner of China's general software.

Domestic computer magazines applauded, and caught Kingsoft's company crazily praising it, and ps97 sold another wave of genuine editions. Moreover, the military cooperated with Kingsoft in advance to jointly develop the military version of ps97, and Lei Jun immediately promoted the government version of ps97 project.

The civilian version cannot be sold, and the corporate version has a poor sales volume, so it can only be purchased by the government and the military.

In fact, ps97 has occupied more than 70% of the Chinese market at this time, but it just doesn’t make much money, and it’s all over the place that is a pirated user.

As for Microsoft, it is also nonsense. Even though they know that there are huge loopholes in the Chinese version of Ord, they often need to switch to the Dos system to print normally. As a result, Microsoft's first reaction was to conduct promotions, not only to lower the price, but also to give gifts. Then the genuine users still didn't buy it and turned to the arms of PS.

Microsoft has to wait until the summer of 1998 to fix the ord Chinese version of vulnerabilities.

This shows Microsoft's contempt for the Chinese market. That little bug can be solved by just finding two senior programmers in a few weeks, which can be delayed for several years.

At the same time, Song Weiyang's investment in Kingsoft Company has also spread from a small online circle to the real society. Most people don't know what Kingsoft is, but only know that the chairman of Xifeng Company has begun to enter the high-tech industry.

Song Weiyang and Bill Gates' peak dialogue was also hyped up by the Chinese media, and there was even an article titled: Communication between Chinese Youth and the World.

Does Bill Gates represent the world?

Some media also focused on Bill Gates' identity as a rich second-generation, and analyzed whether Bill Gates could become the world's richest man without his mother's help.

There is also the Associated Press female reporter who has also become a background board. Some newspapers believe that they have analyzed her several difficulties and praised Song Weiyang's witty response.

I have to say that "Readers" like this kind of story very much and has made re-creation with added fuel to the fire.

For example, this is the case-

American female reporter: "Mr. Song, do you think the number of Chinese people who can afford computers can exceed 10,000?"

Song Weiyang asked back: "The number of Chinese netizens has exceeded 300,000. If they can't afford computers, are they using qigong to connect to the brain waves?"

Americans believed it because they didn’t understand Chinese humor, so the American media exclaimed: Chinese Qigong can connect to the Internet, and the Chinese people’s superpowers are invincible!

Many students and ordinary citizens believed such an outrageous chicken soup article, thinking that the "Reader" is true.

Just like the author of "Birds and Fish" is Tagore and the author of "Seeing and Not Seeing" is Tsangyang Gyatso, they are all big lies compiled by "Readers". Even when they enter the era of smartphones, countless Chinese people believe it and have forwarded it in various circles of friends.

Song Weiyang was happy to see this, and the higher the attention, the better. He took the opportunity to hold a press conference in the capital.

...

This is the first time that Song Weiyang attended a press conference in person. Major media have given face and nearly a hundred companies came to one breath.

Guo Xiaochun also rushed to Beijing from Port City and said nervously: "Yangyang, what should I say? What if I say the wrong thing?"

"Uncle, don't worry," Song Weiyang took out a piece of paper and said, "Just memorize it."

Guo Xiaochun is the legal representative of Taurus Capital. Although he is a mascot, he will definitely have many opportunities to stand on the front desk in the future.

On the day of the press conference, the venue was very lively.

A bunch of reporters were waiting for it, and finally waited for Song Weiyang to appear. They thought Song Weiyang and Bill Gates had any cooperation. As a result, when they got the information on the spot, they found that the content was: Taurus Capital invested in Shenzhou Technology, and Xiaolingtong's business will be officially launched on October 1.

What the hell is Taurus Capital? No one except financial media reporters know.

What are Shenzhou Technology and Xiaolingtong?

Song Weiyang held the microphone to test the sound and said with a smile: "I won't talk nonsense, go straight to the topic. Thank you all the reporters for your appreciation. Let's talk about Xiaolingtong first. This is a popular Chinese name for PSS technology, a mobile communication technology grafted into a landline network. Shenzhou Technology Company has reached cooperation with the telecommunications department to fully carry out Xiaolingtong business in China. Shenzhou Technology Company, I personally invested 10 million yuan, and this time, Taurus Capital invested 20 million yuan, which is a powerful high-tech company..."

On the roof of the building where the press conference was located, a small Lingtong antenna was temporarily installed.

After Song Weiyang introduced it, he asked the Etiquette lady to show off her new mobile phones, and the photographer took photos of the cameras in front of him.

This thing is so beautiful, the broken brick shape is smaller than the older brother, and more beautiful than the Motorola and Ericsson phones - they are square and look quite stupid.

Song Weiyang said: "Xiaolingtong mobile phones are temporarily available in three colors: classic black, festive red, and sapphire blue. You can see that our mobile phones have a very artistic and streamlined shape, and belong to the supercars in the mobile phone. If you want to try it, please raise your hand."

He lifted a large piece of it.

Song Weiyang picked a beautiful reporter who was more pleasing to the eye. The other party directly chose the Red Little Lingtong and quickly dialed the number: "Hey, mom. Yes, it's me... It's okay, I just miss you, chat a few times... Yes, the phone bill is quite expensive, I'll hang up first."

Song Weiyang smiled and said, "How is the signal?"

"Extremely good," said the female reporter, "the voice is clear and the call quality is very high."

Can the call quality be low? The signal antenna is installed on the roof and will be removed after the press conference.

Song Weiyang said: "Okay, ask questions freely, ask any questions."

A financial reporter first asked: "Mr. Song, I remember that Taurus Capital raised a sign in Hong Kong City at the beginning of the year. Can you reveal more information?"

Song Weiyang smiled and said, "This is Mr. Guo Xiaochun, the legal representative of Taurus Capital, and he will answer it."

Guo Xiaochun immediately said: "Talnuk Capital is still very strong. We are an investment company. The current corporate shareholders include Citibank (China), New Hope Group, Oriental Hope Group, Shenghai Light Textile Group, Bubugao Company, Fosun Company, Xifeng Company, Xianjiu Group, Geely Company and Sitong Group Port City Branch. The individual shareholders include Mr. Song Weiyang, Mr. Zheng Xuehong, Ms. Chen Tao, and of course I am myself."

There was an uproar in the scene.

In addition to the Light Textile Group, Fosun and Geely are not very famous, other companies are all well-known, and Citibank also participates.

How strong is Taurus Capital?

In fact, it was precisely because Taurus Capital was smooth sailing in Southeast Asia and made a lot of money with Soros that Citibank (China) invested $3 million. Because it was unconcealed that Taurus Capital's custody manager was a Citibank employee.

The investment amount of other franchise companies is not large, and Song Weiyang still holds more than 80% of the shares.

Guo Xiaochun smiled and said, "If any entrepreneurs are interested, you can also join Taurus Capital, and everyone will invest together to make money in the future. Taurus Capital not only invested 20 million yuan in Shenzhou Technology, but also recently invested 5 million yuan in Sohu. Wall Street's valuation of Sohu.com has exceeded 5 million US dollars!"

Song Weiyang suddenly said: "Next, this friend wearing glasses, please ask a question."

The reporter immediately stood up and said, "Mr. Song, is Xiaolingtong a mobile phone produced independently by China?"

Song Weiyang said: "About Xiaolingtong mobile phones, Shenzhou Technology Company has applied for a patent for appearance design. Unfortunately, the main patented technologies are all from foreigners, and we are just assembled by OEMs. However, Xiaolingtong is indeed the first Chinese mobile phone brand! This is the first step for Chinese people in the field of mobile communications. Moreover, we have established a R&D center, specializing in mobile phone motherboards and chips. The first year of scientific research investment is 10 million yuan, with Academician Ni from the Chinese Academy of Sciences as the technical guidance! I believe that one day, Chinese people can make their own mobile phones!"

"good!"

Guo Xiaochun immediately clapped his hands and said to the reporters in the audience: "What are you doing when you are standing there? Clap quickly!"

"Smack it!"

The reporters finally applauded.

Another reporter asked: "Xiaolingtong is a telecommunications business, so what is the difference between phone bills and mobile phones?"

Song Weiyang smiled and said, "20 cents, only 20 cents per minute!"

"Wow!"

The whole audience became noisy again. With such a low fee, the communications market is about to change.
