In the end, Jester made his own compromise with Microsoft.

He agreed to a billion dollars, plus the ownership of indos in his hands, and exchanged 12% of Microsoft's shares.

In addition, in the past few years, Jester secretly snatched 4% of Microsoft's liquid shares.

Now, Jester already owns 16% of Microsoft's shares, and it seems that even compared with Paul Allen, Bill Gates, the largest shareholder of Microsoft, is not much worse.

You should know that even Bill Gates' current shares in Microsoft are only in his early twenties. After Indos went public, his shares did not even remain above 20%. Although Jester doesn't know what it is, he remembers an article he read, which mentioned that Bill Gates' shares for a period of time were only 19%.

Based on time calculation, one ** can also be calculated.

Microsoft is a listed company, so a large-scale share acquisition naturally needs to be announced, and they are all familiar with the buyers, Jest Lee, a young entrepreneurial leader in the United States.

Even because of this time, Microsoft's shares rose for several days.

The final increase was 10%.

Time passes.

A year passed in a flash, and what Jester expected was that indos was indeed a great success as soon as it was released.

Microsoft's stocks are even rising. People recalled that Jester had spent a huge amount of money to buy a large number of Microsoft shares before, and praised Jester's good vision. But in fact, few people know that if Jester had not mastered part of the indos operating system, Microsoft's board of directors would never have made such a large transaction with Jester when Indos was about to be launched.

Now that I see Microsoft's stock price, I really want to cry.

Other products that compete with indos93, such as Apple's long-lasting Macintosh computer, are immediately melted away like snow and sunlight.

Jester even went on an interview.

He took the initiative to talk about the strategies that Mars Entertainment will adopt on P.

Although there was an expectation, when Jester said that Mars Entertainment's games will no longer support P operating systems other than the Indos system, the sales of Apple Macintosh computers will be almost a disaster.

Originally, among the many Apple users, the proportion of gamers was very high. You should know that almost more than 80% of the current American game developers have their enlightenment games all P games, while their gaming computers are either Apple 1 or Apple 2.

In fact, the biggest reason why Bill Gates agreed to Jester to buy shares from Microsoft was that he felt that Jester had no control over Microsoft. So he was safer, and instead of letting the shares be in the hands of others, it would be better to let these shares be in the hands of someone he was familiar with. In this way, he could get the other party’s support better.

In fact, Jester really supports Bill Gates' various decisions.

Adding Bill Gates, Paul Allen, and Jester's shares have exceeded 50% of Microsoft's shares. Basically, only these three people have reached an agreement, so there is no proposal that cannot be passed.

As long as the three people agree, no matter what proposal it is, it cannot be approved within the company.

However, Microsoft is still relatively harmonious, because it is still Microsoft's expansion period, and no matter how big the internal contradictions are, they can be temporarily suppressed.

In fact, this is the reason why Jester is unwilling to manage Microsoft in depth. From later generations, he deeply knows how fierce the internal struggles of Microsoft will be in the future. Many people say that Sony's infighting and disagreement are world-famous, but in fact, Microsoft is not inferior in this regard.

As in history.

The game that Bill Gates entrusted before that could show indos93 to the world was still handed over to John Carmack's team.

What Carmack likes the most is this challenging task that others cannot complete.

After he only did all the boring and repetitive work once, he lost interest in this kind of work. This is why John Carmack did not continue to produce "Thor Hammer" after the third work ended.

Because he felt that his engine development technology had entered a bottleneck period. In this case, if we continue to develop "Thor Hammer", the engine used is the same as he was when he was developing the third work. Such a game might be very exciting for others. After all, now it is just the words "Thor Hammer", which represents the most sales series on p!

But when he heard Jester say he wanted to develop the game on a brand new system.

John Carmack immediately devoted himself to a new job, and after three days, he came up with a new 3D engine design idea that made him extremely excited.

And now more than a year has passed, "Thor Hammer 4", a brand new PS game developed with Carmack's new engine, has officially appeared at the e3 exhibition in June this year, and has become the absolute core of e3 this time.

As for the ‘Time’ plan.

Although many people are still talking about some things about the "Times" plan, except for the video released on e3 at that time, Mars Entertainment has not leaked any information about this project in recent years, and many people even think that this project has been cancelled.

Unfortunately, although there is no information about this project in some game exhibitions.

However, whenever a reporter asked the insiders of Mars Entertainment whether the "Times" project is still there, these people would answer in unison, and the game is still under development.

But beyond that, they won't disclose any other news.

Although these people know no more about the "time" than these reporters who ask questions.

The picture of "Thor Hammer 4" has almost reached its current extreme under the new indos93 and Carmack's latest engine processing, and even made many people who decided to develop this type of game when they saw the popularity of the PS game, and were extremely pessimistic and disappointed.
