Chapter 366 In front of me, you don’t even dare to let out a fart!

After finishing the tripadvisor travel website at this stage, Apple immediately held a product launch conference and announced the Safari browser.

Safari browser caused a sensation and hot discussion.

Without him, the designer of Safari browser is Li Zetian.

As we all know, the designer of Netscape browsing is also Li Zetian.

As a result, people can't help but compare Safari and Netscape browsers!

The media always enjoys watching the excitement and not taking it too seriously, and they also like to add fuel to the fire and make some explosive news.

"Microsoft or Apple, who is Chronos Li's true love?" ! 》

"Chronos Li personally designed the Safari browser to defeat the "eldest son" Netscape browser? 》

…

At present, many Microsoft employees and shareholders also have opinions on Li Zetian and are talking about it.

"Really, Chronos Li, why did he help Apple design the Safari browser? Isn't he a major shareholder of Microsoft?"

"What the fuck! After Apple released the Safari browser, Microsoft's stock price plummeted immediately!"

"Alas, Chronos·Li should treat everyone equally, how can we treat them differently?"

"Yeah, Chronos Li designed the Safari browser for Apple, but Microsoft bought the Netscape browser. It's unfair even if you think about it!"

"..."

In particular, Microsoft shareholders were very dissatisfied with Li Zetian and lost their interests. Many people even criticized Li Zetian verbally and writtenly during interviews with reporters.

In Beverly Hills, in the Li mansion, Li Zetian was speechless watching the news.

"Brother, what's wrong? I just designed the Safari browser for Apple. You were so paralyzed that you shouted at me one by one. When I was designing for Microsoft, I never saw people from Apple treating me like this. ! After all, it is a listed company, which is very different from a private company!" Li Zetian said angrily.

Not long after, Bill Gates called.

"Chronos, I'm very sorry. You know those Wall Street capitalists. If you make money for them, they will treat you as the God of Wealth. If you lose money, everyone will become a white-eyed wolf. As for the company employees, I'll explain it to you."

"Yeah." Li Zetian responded.

Bill Gates is tolerant. Li Zetian is both the boss of Apple and the major shareholder of Microsoft. There is no problem in helping both.

And in Bill Gates' view, Li Zetian is more important than Microsoft. When establishing TripAdvisor this time, it is a great blessing that Li Zetian can recruit him to join the team! A senior commentator on Wall Street has valued the TripAdvisor travel website. Just over a week after the website was officially launched, TripAdvisor's market value has exceeded US$6 billion, which shocked Bill Gates. This made Bill Gates more determined to make good friends with Li Zetian and maintain the friendship that started in college!

After Li Zetian and Bill Gates hung up the phone, their minds began to move.

Listed companies are very troublesome. If they do something that is detrimental to the interests of shareholders, they will make trouble and curse, which makes Li Zetian very unhappy.

"Microsoft's current market value is US$155 billion, which is far from reaching the subversion of nearly US$600 billion in its previous life! When the market value is close to US$500 billion, it will start cashing out! At present, the market value of Internet technology companies is generally seriously inflated. It has been more than a week since the TripAdvisor website was officially launched. This is 6 billion US dollars, which is too exaggerated! Therefore, the Internet bubble burst in the previous life in 2000 may happen again in this life!!"

Speaking of this, Li Zetian couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth slightly, "After the Internet bubble burst, the Internet winter ushered in, and Microsoft's market value of more than 600 billion US dollars dropped to less than 200 billion US dollars! At this time, I will take action to recover Microsoft's shares, and finally Take it private and get out of Nasdaq!!”

Immediately, Li Zetian's mood improved a lot. He called Jobs and asked, "Jobs, how many users are there in the Safari browser?"

With joy in his tone, Jobs replied: "More than 300,000 users were added on the first day!"

"Haha, it seems there are many Apple fans!" Li Zetian laughed.

"Mr. Li, the Safari browser you designed is very good and very popular. Netizens who have used it have praised it!"

Li Zetian smiled softly and joked, who am I? I'm hanging on. The Safari browser was designed and developed with reference to the Apple computer browser in the previous life. It is definitely crushing this era!

"Jobs, in the high-end market, Apple computers have the most users. These people are relatively wealthy. Most of them must have opened Internet services! In this way, Apple's operating system pops up a system update software. After the user clicks 'System Update' , download the Safari browser immediately!"

When Jobs heard this, he couldn't help but cheered: "Mr. Li, your idea is great. In this way, Safari browser can quickly defeat the macOS version of Netscape! From now on, Safari browser and Netscape and Netscape browsers are clearly separated, and each is used on their own operating system. Apple will not be controlled by Microsoft because of the browser!"

Li Zetian smiled and nodded, then ended the call.

Jobs was so excited that he immediately called Wozniak over, and then told him the method Li Zetian told him.

Wozniak couldn't help but praise this wonderful electronic device.

In fact, this idea was very common in previous lives, but now it is 1993, the Internet has just emerged, and people do not know enough about the Internet, so they did not think of this method for a while.

"Okay, I understand. I'll do it right away. This thing will be done soon!"

After saying that, Wozniak turned and left.

That night, all Apple computers popped up with an offer to update their operating systems.

In addition to adding the Safari browser, Wozniak also optimized the system and added some new features.

If you want to update the system, you can’t just download the Safari browser. Can that also be called updating the system?

As soon as such a killer move came out, the macOS version of Netscape Browsing was quickly finished.

After four or five days, more than 2.1 million Apple computer users became Safari browser users.

“I was not used to using Safari browser at first, but Safari browser is really easier to use than Netscape browser. It opens web pages very quickly and the design style continues Apple’s simple features. I like it very much. If you can If you use shortcut keys, the operation will be easier and more convenient!”

"Safari browser is indeed designed by Chronos Li. It is amazing, 10,000 times better than Netscape browser!"

"Safari browser responds very quickly and is very compatible with Apple's operating system! After all, Netscape browser is developed by Microsoft. Without Apple's system support, it is naturally not as good as Safari browser. Therefore, it is still used on Apple computers Safari browser is better!”

"Is Safari browser really that good? I have been using Netscape browser before, but after you guys said that, I want to try Safari browser too!" typed a netizen who has not used Safari browser yet. road.

"I'll try it too!"

"+1"

"..."

"+1021"

In the conference room of Microsoft Corporation, shareholders of all sizes were furious. Safari browser was so aggressive that it easily took away the market share of Netscape browser!

Today's shareholders' meeting was convened at the request of major shareholders, with the purpose of denunciating Li Zetian.

At this time, before the shareholders meeting officially started, some shareholders, large and small, started to complain to Bill Gates. Bill Gates is the second largest shareholder of Microsoft, and everyone hoped to gain his self-control in order to put pressure on Li Zetian. .

"Gates, tell me, is it too unkind for Chronos Li to do this?" a shareholder said angrily.

"That's right, he's still a shareholder of Microsoft, so why is he so fond of one?" Another shareholder said in agreement.

Bill Gates curled his lips and compared his feelings. Chronos designed the Windows graphical operating system, Excel, Word, PPT, Hotmail, etc. for Microsoft. He actually said that he favored one over the other... He could only design products for Microsoft, not others. Does the company design products?

"Everyone, please don't get excited!" Bill Gates said in a deep voice, "As the boss of Apple, Chronos Li designs products for Apple. There is nothing wrong with that. You don't need to be too angry. After all, he is also the major shareholder of Microsoft. He and the founder have designed many products for Microsoft, so you probably don’t want to completely push him to Apple.”

As soon as the words fell, the conference room suddenly became quiet, and everyone looked at each other, speechless.

Everyone knows Li Zetian's amazing talent. If he really wants to give up on Microsoft, Microsoft will be in tragedy. The stock price will definitely fall crazily, and everyone will lose more than they gain!

"Ahem..."

An old man in his 60s said, "Bill Gates is right. We can only find ways to win over Chronos Li instead of pretending to be with him. Everyone here, who can be as powerful as Chronos Li?"

Bill Gates said: "Okay, that's it! If the product doesn't work, we will improve it and develop a better product! The Safari browser also occupies the market on Apple computers, and on the Windows operating system, Netscape browser monopolizes more than 90% of the market share!"

"Having said that, Chronos Li designs products for other companies every day, which seriously damages the interests of Microsoft. In addition to Apple, Sun Microsystems, Oracle, and SAP are also competitors of Microsoft... …”

boom!

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Zetian suddenly pushed the door in from the outside.

"Everyone, I'm very sorry, I'm late." Li Zetian glanced at him and said calmly. Under everyone's gaze, he walked to the main seat and sat down.

Everyone was suddenly as silent as a chill.

Before Li Zetian came, everyone had the guts to talk about him behind his back. However, when Li Zetian appeared in front of them, everyone was afraid.

"Were everyone talking about me just now?" Li Zetian said coldly in a deep voice.

Everyone quickly bowed their heads, and no one dared to speak, fearing that Li Zetian would retaliate against him.

Li Zetian sneered with disdain.

"The stock price of Microsoft has fallen recently, and you are very dissatisfied with me. If anyone no longer wants to hold shares in Microsoft, I can leave immediately. I am willing to pay a high price to acquire your shares!" Li Zetian glanced around and said calmly Said: "30% premium!"

As soon as Li Zetian finished speaking, all the major shareholders were stunned. Many people's throats were twitching and they swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

"Mr. Li, are you sure you want a 30% premium?" asked a middle-aged man.

"Of course!!!"

After speaking, Li Zetian stared at him and asked: "What, you want to sell the shares?!"

The middle-aged man hesitated, his face turned red, but after a while, he shook his head and said, "No, I won't sell it..."

The computer penetration rate is getting higher and higher, and Microsoft has huge development potential. And according to the current development trend of Internet technology concept stocks, Microsoft's market value will definitely reach an astonishing number! If you sell it now at a 30% premium, you will definitely regret it in the future.

Li Zetian looked at the others, but no one said they wanted to sell their shares.

Obviously, everyone is very optimistic about the future development of Microsoft.

Seeing that no one was speaking, Li Zetian had no choice but to speak himself.

"Since Microsoft's listing, the stock price has increased more than ten times, and major shareholders have benefited hugely! If you are greedy, you will swallow the elephant! Since I can design products for Microsoft, why do you ask me not to design products for Apple? Microsoft is What I created, I naturally know what I do. If you have any objections to me, I just want to say to you, you can leave!"

After a pause, Li Zetian said coldly: "Of course, if you want to drive me out of Microsoft, kick me out! OK, no problem, as long as you have the ability! But, do you have it?"

After speaking, Li Zetian looked at Bill Gates, nodded to him, stood up and left.

The faces of the major shareholders were ugly and as gloomy as water.

Li Zetian treated them with contempt, but they were unable to fight back.

The two major shareholders of Microsoft are Li Zetian, who holds 45.6% of the shares, and Bill Gates, who holds 12.5% ​​of the shares. Moreover, Bill Gates still supports Li Zetian. How do you compare?

Even if Bill Gates were on their side, the combined shares would hardly exceed 45.6% of the shares.

Microsoft is a listed company, and at least 15% of its shares are still in the hands of retail investors.

Li Zetian walked out of Microsoft, got into a silver extended Rolls-Royce and drove away.

"Haha, what the hell, a group of small shareholders dare to yell at me! They chirp, chirp, chirp, babble, babble, babble, babble, babble, babble, babble, babble, babble, babble, babble, babble, babble, babble, babble in front of me! Haha, even if they all It doesn’t matter what it adds up to, what can you do to me!!!” Li Zetian said disdainfully, he just saw the deflated look of these people, and felt very happy!

Dongfang Yuqin opened a bottle of soda, handed it to Li Zetian, and said with a smile: "Okay, drink some water, don't be angry with them!"

"Sooner or later, I will privatize Microsoft to save these villains from causing trouble!" Li Zetian took a sip of water and said.

"Yes." Dongfang Yuqin smiled and nodded.
