From the dragon-slaying boy back then to the evil dragon today, Microsoft and Bill Gates have already mastered the use of this PUA.
It's nothing more than one being a bad person and the other being a good person, using high litigation costs to completely break through the opponent's psychological defense.
Indeed, it is true. In fact, the amount of compensation is not important, nor is the outcome of the lawsuit. However, it will consume your legal fees and drag you into a long and suffocating lawsuit, leaving you to watch helplessly.
Hundreds of thousands or millions of legal fees are "swished" away. In the end, your psychology will completely collapse.
This trick is not uncommon in American society. Aren't they a country of lawyers? It can indeed drag many people to half-death.
Of course, Bill Gates still gave him a chance - Li Yuan could come to apologize and then perform "Ode to Friendship" together. Li Yuan completely admired Bill Gates as a senior, and Bill Gates also cared about and cared for Li Yuan as a junior.
?
Then we can reconcile! It depends on whether Li Yuan's knees are weak or not.
Here, it is not that Bill Gates eats too much vegetarian food and is preparing to cultivate his moral character and become a Buddha immediately.
The key will definitely be bundled sales in the future? Microsoft and Bill Gates can't afford to delay, and they don't want to cause any big trouble.
As for giving up the unfair competition of bundling sales? That absolutely does not exist. Sooner or later, Netscape and Parallel Browser will be killed!
However, when Microsoft was sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai, Netscape's Andreessen couldn't wait to jump out.
After being reminded like this by Li Yuan, everyone at Netscape suddenly broke into a cold sweat.
That’s right! That soulless Microsoft will definitely do that? What will Netscape do then?
Netscape is not like a parallel line. Sometimes it has customized web pages, sometimes parallel lines of community, sometimes games, sometimes portals and free mailboxes. Even in the end, it even has electronic pets, tree of life planting sheds, and funeral alliances?
Before this, Parallel Lines was a joke in Silicon Valley, and the Internet turned out to be a hodgepodge.
But what about now? Without the browser, parallel lines are still in full bloom, not even to the extent of breaking the muscles and bones?
But Netscape is completely different. What they are fully invested in is Internet technology, especially browser technology. What kind of bundled sales are now sold by Microsoft? And they are sold for zero yuan? This suddenly digs out the roots of Netscape!
Anderson woke up even more. As a generation of the Internet, he has been too intoxicated with the media's pursuit recently. He almost forgot that there is also the life and death enemy of Microsoft?
Ignoring what Li Yuan called "idiots" and "stupid donkeys", Anderson urgently summoned the media: "...We all know that Microsoft's credibility is that it has no credibility; that a certain gentleman's morality is that he has no morality. They are just killing him.
The new Internet technology is killing our new generation of innovators in Silicon Valley..."
Microsoft immediately responded: "...We also warn a certain young friend who is in the limelight. We don't mind sending an extra lawyer's letter..."
"...Does Microsoft dare to respond in person? Does Bill Gates dare to respond in person? In their sales, especially in IE sales, they will never use bundled sales..."
"...We don't care about some people's malicious speculations, they are suffering from paranoia..."
"...Why didn't you answer? Has Microsoft already acquiesced..."
"...We have no comment on business matters. We are responsible to all shareholders..."
"..."
The flag bearer still has the flag of the flag bearer. As soon as Anderson came on the stage, he was evenly matched with Microsoft.
Of course, this is mainly due to Microsoft's guilty conscience. It is afraid that if it says something wrong, it will be used as evidence in court later. The unfair competition lawsuit will definitely be fought, and now it is trying to deceive it as much as possible.
However, in the sudden fierce quarrel, they temporarily forgot about the fan and igniter.
After all, both parties are leaders in the industry. If they fight each other, they will fight for hundreds of rounds...
It's been more than a month of noisy and noisy, and it's still the same back and forth, with no result. On the contrary, the stock prices of Microsoft and Netscape have soared, once again having the effect of speculation...
…
On the other side of the ocean, Li Yuan had long forgotten this matter.
Those bad things are doomed. Will Microsoft definitely not bundle sales? Is it possible that Netscape will abandon the technical route? Since it is impossible, sooner or later it will return to the historical line.
Today, Li Yuan closed the door behind closed doors and was testing the new software he had just finished - u2 social communication software.
In the original history, the earliest social communication software was icq (i see you), which appeared two years later in 1996. It was invented by three young Israeli programmers. It was later acquired by AOL (America Online).
Later, it was acquired by other companies. Anyway, it kept being acquired and never developed until it finally died.
And Penguin in China...? When you hear the name of QQ, you know it is a copycat of icq, right? However, Penguin has always been a big copycat company. They almost never create original things, they only borrow from successful original creators, and finally replace the original creators.
Get killed.
But Li Yuan can't control that much now. The reason why U2 (you too) was made in advance is just to add one more selling point for hype before the Parallel Line IPO.
Relatively speaking, social communication software is relatively simple. The only drawback now is that it only supports English input, making it difficult to implement multi-language versions.
But that doesn’t matter, let’s slowly upgrade the versions from generation to generation! Anyway, priority is still given to the North American market.
However, before official promotion, it still needs to be publicly tested.
With the success of Netscape, the country has also accelerated the pace of Internet infrastructure construction. Now every university, every important department, and every foreign-related business building have successively provided Internet dedicated line services.
Since u2 needs internal testing? Li Yuan sent people to various places to promote it, and he also attracted many customers.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Open your own u2 account (I am a villain), cough cough.
Li Yuan started to choose random matches in the same city, and of course he was looking for women!
Eh? Rose? Today’s female netizens are so straightforward! What a delicate rose. It’s you!
"Hello, I am a villain."
"Hello, I'm rose."
"I'm destined to meet you, that's my destiny in the sea of people!" Li Yuan habitually began to talk nonsense. Isn't it just chatting? It has become a natural habit long ago.
"Sorry, wait a minute, I'll look it up in the dictionary."
"?" Li Yuan didn't understand what was going on for a moment. Do girls in this generation love to study online?
"Okay. Hello."
"I have a question, were you really looking up in the dictionary just now?"
"I'm embarrassed. My English is not good and I'm still a freshman."
"Wow! Miss, I'm only 16 years old! I'm still a child!" Anyway, there is a network cable across, who knows if there is a big man on the other side who picks his feet?
However, this kind of chat seemed to make Rose very uncomfortable. She was quiet for a few seconds: "No way? Are you so good at English? Your English skills in Beijing High School are very good!"
"?"
At the beginning, Li Yuan just randomly tested it and chatted with users to increase user stickiness.
In my previous life, I even acted as Penguin's little brother, so why can't I do it myself? Little Ma also wears a women's trumpet.
But I never expected...?Are the girls on the Internet so honest nowadays?
"Rose, are you really a college student?"
"Yes! I am a freshman, so I want to come here to practice English. I heard that the people here are very nice, so thank you very much."
"...Okay! I can see that you are a kind girl. I confess, I am already 29 years old. After a long relationship, I was ruthlessly abandoned by my lover. I am currently in the painful period of falling out of love. I happened to find this u2,
It's like chatting with a stranger here and talking about what's on your mind."
"Ah? I'm sorry, villain..."
"Call me uncle! I've already felt how considerate you are." Li Yuan suppressed a smile and began to play the affectionate, decadent, vicissitudes and mature uncle routine.
"Uncle, I don't know how to comfort you. I haven't been in love yet."
"?"
Li Yuan feels more and more interesting. Girls on the Internet are almost unprotected nowadays, huh? You really don’t want to do bad things, but you want to whitewash yourself and make yourself feel good?
"It's okay, I can feel your sincerity. When I met you in a difficult moment, it was a piece of light given to me by God."
After a while, he said: "Uncle, you speak English so fluently and beautifully."
"When you meet beauty, everything is beautiful before your eyes. Rose, I feel like I have fallen in love with you." Li Yuan was too lazy to beat around the bush and just started flirting.
"..." There was a deathly silence. Li Yuan could already guess that the girl opposite was already confused. Because... the line was not disconnected at all? Hahaha!
Sure enough, a message finally came: "Uncle, don't be kidding, we don't know each other yet."
"Why should we stick to the secular world? In the sky of the capital, with you and me, the smell is sweet love!"
"Uncle, please stop talking, okay? I..."
"Don't you accept it? I understand, sad people are at the end of the world!"
"No, no. I... was too fast!"
"Don't you believe that there is love at first sight in this world? Don't you think that there is fate between you and me? A random stranger, that is the thread of a thousand-mile marriage!"
"Uncle, stop talking!"
"Oh! I know. After all, there is no fate. Behind this U2 number, there is an uncle who has a crush on you. I'm sorry, I'm talking nonsense. Don't take my words to heart, let me stay in the dark,
Suffer it silently and numb yourself with alcohol!"
"No, uncle! I didn't refuse? I... we can give it a try."
"I'm so happy. I don't need to tell you your name or your address. I believe that we both have the same heart. I will suddenly appear in the sea of people and I will give you a sweet surprise."
"Uh-huh."
"..."
In the midst of laughter, Li Yuan ended the call with Rose. Anyway, after flirting with her a few more times, she... ruthlessly rejected her.
Li Yuan never thought about going to Benxian. This girl is too stupid and naive, and she has exceeded the level of mentally retarded. Don't cause any trouble in the end.
After regaining his composure, Li Yuan evaluated the internal test. Basically, there were no problems, and the communication between the two parties was still very smooth. The main reason was the enterprise dedicated line, right?
Otherwise, if you rely on today's "modems", the Internet speed will make life worse than death.
I casually clicked on another name:
"Hello!"
"Hello!"
"I'm glad to meet you in the sea of people. I have already imagined your figure, the dancing elf among the flowers..."
"Sorry, please slow down."
"Are you looking up the dictionary too?" Li Yuan suddenly had an idea.
"Ah? How do you know?"
"mgd, why are you all looking up in the dictionary?"
"Is there any English vocabulary you don't understand? Don't you? I heard you can learn English here."
"Why are you in such a hurry to learn English?"
"Of course I went abroad to study. English is very important now. Isn't it true for you?"
"..."
(⊙?⊙)
Unexpectedly, Li Yuan was despised by this young lady. This lady just regarded u2 as a learning tool and never thought about sweet love.
Disappointing! Not as cute as Rose at all.
What's interesting is that it seems that Rose has exhausted Li Yuan's luck. The girls who followed him learned English in addition to learning English, and they basically all wanted to study abroad.
Aren’t the girls in this class good? Why haven’t they considered sweet love? And studying abroad? Isn’t that a waste of resources?
Li Yuan thought about it for a while and found that social communication software had just appeared and the first generation of netizens did not have the concept of online dating. They were very innocent and basically used this as a tool.
Alas! How can we promote it? Dog men and women are the driving force of human progress!
While sighing, Li Yuan suddenly had an idea. Since girls can't be attracted, then... flirt with boys?
Li Yuan quickly registered a small account, and it was still a random man from the same city.
"Hello!"
"Stop talking and let me guess. I believe in fate. Little brother, what's your zodiac sign?"
"..." The other side fell into silence, as if the computer was down. I don't know how long it took, "You called me little brother?"
"I'm so shy. Is it okay to call you that?"
"Okay, okay." This time the answer came quickly, with a strong smell of a sexy man.
"I asked you what your zodiac sign is?"
"Ah? Constellations? I don't know." At this time, no constellations were popular in the mainland, and many people had never heard of this Western thing.
"What about your zodiac sign?"
"Ox!"
"You're so cute. I'm one year younger than you, so I'm so embarrassed."
"No, no." Maybe the other party hasn't figured out what's going on yet.
"Look at how stupid you are. Didn't I tell you? I'm one year younger than you, and I'm a tiger. We are destined - the power of nine oxen and two tigers (English)."
"ah?"
"They all call me Hu Niu. I have a bad temper. Will you care about me?"
"Ah? You care about me." There must be a big silly guy on the other side. That silly cow is probably drooling, right? Men like to daydream. They wait for beautiful women to throw themselves into their arms every day, right?
