Bill Gates has a new understanding of Kitahara Sosuke's confidence.
This young man does not seem to understand the details of technology research and development, but his tone of voice reveals full confidence in this industry, as if he can really see changes in the next five to ten years.
The more Sosuke Kitahara is like this, the harder it is for Bill Gates to believe it.
"Is Mr. Kitahara sure that your investment will not be wasted just because of such a simple reason? According to Mr. Masayoshi Son, in this cooperation, Mr. Kitahara is prepared to spend 3 billion meters of gold to support our research and development?"
Bill Gates asked.
"Yes, 3 billion meters of gold is just an initial investment. I hope to get some original shares of Microsoft while supporting Microsoft's research and development." Kitahara Sosuke said truthfully, "I know this request is very abrupt, but I still want to ask Gates
Sir, if you think about it, as long as you cooperate with us, you will have a complete Japanese market, and at the same time, you will no longer have worries about funds."
"In addition, I also have certain connections in the United States. I believe Luo Meng has told you that the shares I want are not many, about 10%. To be honest, Microsoft's current market value is almost 10 billion meters. If I offer 30 billion meters,
Jin buys it from you, will you agree?"
Kithara Sosuke asked with a smile.
Bill Gates had a sudden thought.
30 billion meters of gold!
Converted into Japanese yen, it is about 3 trillion.
Such a large amount of money would be used to acquire Microsoft.
Regardless of whether he agrees or not, the employees below will probably go crazy!
This means everyone can get three times the reward instantly.
For those senior executives at Microsoft, it is simply an irresistible temptation!
Kitahara Sosuke said it so nakedly, which shows that he does not intend to invade Microsoft in this way. It can be seen that he has also thought about cooperation very thoroughly.
"Indeed, if Mr. Kitahara is really willing to spend so much money on Microsoft, I can't refuse." Bill Gates sighed. Even if he wanted to refuse, the company would find it difficult to refuse. After all, it is a group and would not just listen to him.
if.
In this world, interests are always the most important thing.
"I am not saying this to threaten you, but I hope Mr. Gates that you can understand the importance I attach to the information technology industry. Maybe you don't fully believe what I said today, but I hope you can consider what I said."
Kitahara Sosuke smiled.
Bill Gates nodded solemnly: "No problem, Mr. Kitahara, I am also looking forward to our cooperation. To be honest, even in the United States, investors who are as optimistic about the information technology industry as you are are very rare. Their vision
Still limited to finance and real estate, Japan's bubble economy has collapsed. As we all know, non-entity industries can only form bubbles. Once it bursts, everyone will suffer!"
"Information technology is different. This is a real technology. By extension, it can be applied in many fields. As long as computers are popularized, in the future, they will be used in homes, schools, hospitals, companies, etc., wherever there are people.
It will exist. And monopolizing the core technology of this industry means a steady stream of money."
Kithara Sosuke took over.
Bill Gates looked at him and nodded with a smile: "Yes, Mr. Kitahara is absolutely right! I think so too!"
"Then let us work together and advance hand in hand to push the world into a new information age!" Kitahara Sosuke extended his hand.
Bill Gates also extended his hand: "The information age... is such a longing and anticipated era! Mr. Kitahara, I am impressed by your wisdom. I believe that even without us, Microsoft, Kitahara Technology can keep up with the trend of the times."
It shows terrifying energy.”
"Then I accept your good advice. By the way, Mr. Gates, why don't we make a bet?" Kitahara Sosuke suddenly smiled slyly.
"bet?"
Bill Gates became interested.
Americans like to make bets.
"That's right, it's just a little game." Kitahara Sosuke looked at him with a smile, "The content of the bet is whether the world will enter the information age before 1995. I think it can."
"I don't think it's possible." Bill Gates shook his head. Kitahara Sosuke said that the sky was the limit, but his lowest bottom line was also in 1998. In 1995, he only released Windows 95. How could he enter the information age at that time?
?
"The symbol of the information age is that personal computers have entered social life. There is no problem with this, right?" Kitahara Sosuke asked with a smile, "In 1995, no matter which country entered the information age, I would win, and vice versa.
Mr. Ci, how about you win?"
"Okay, no problem! So what's the bet?" Bill Gates asked cautiously. This young man is not ordinary. He doesn't dare to play with too big a bet.
"The bet is very simple, it is 1 meter of gold." Sosuke Kitahara took out a rice gold from his pocket and put it in front of Bill Gates, "How about? If I win, Mr. Gates will give me 1 meter of gold. If I lose,
Yes, I’ll give you a meter of gold.”
"One meter of gold?" Bill Gates looked at him.
"Yes, betting is about fun, not the stakes." Kitahara Sosuke nodded and said.
"Okay! Then I'll play with you!"
Kithara Sosuke smiled and said nothing.
Then the two talked about the development of future computer technology.
Kitahara Sosuke is a time traveler who has lived until 20 years later. His knowledge is 30 years ahead of this era, and his casual words shock Bill Gates.
Computer games actually have such a big market prospect in the future?
network!
And there is such a thing as the Internet!
When everyone comes together, they can share global information!
This is simply unimaginable!
If you talk about these advanced concepts to ordinary people, they won't even understand them. Only geniuses like Bill Gates can understand them.
It was precisely because he understood that he was even more shocked by Kitahara Sosuke's unconstrained remarks.
It seems random and illogical, but if you really dig into it, it seems to be a very rigorous and rigorous idea.
All his remarks are not fabricated out of thin air, but he has really considered a lot of substantive things!
Does Kitahara Sosuke really know nothing about computer technology?
It seems that he knows more theoretical knowledge than the chief technology officer of his company!
Better than the most imaginative designers in Microsoft!
Bill Gates suddenly regretted this bet.
...
Left the Empire Hotel in New York.
Seeing the smile on Kitahara Sosuke's face, the three-eyed man couldn't help but ask: "Mr. Kitahara, why are you so happy? Is the business settled?"
"Yes, we negotiated a huge deal."
"How big is it?"
“It’s as big as 1 meter of gold!”
"1 meter gold?"
"1 meter gold!"
It may be the 1-meter gold that will be talked about by countless people in the future!
