Chapter 3081 Software Services

In the evening, Zhou Buqi wants to participate in family entertainment.

Not to accompany my wife, but to accompany my children.

You have to play games and watch cartoons with them. Dads should act like dads and participate in some parent-child activities.

Fortunately, at nine o'clock in the evening, the children have to go to bed.

The adults' nightlife can begin.

Like an outdoor pool party.

Wang Langli has participated in it several times, but she still feels a little blushing and can't wipe her face away.

Sun Wanran couldn't stand it anymore and asked her, "What's the matter with you?"

Wang Langli felt guilty, "What's wrong with me?"

Sun Wanran glanced at Boss Zhou who was surrounded by birds in the swimming pool, "Not done yet?"

Wang Langli whispered: "The boss said there is no rush."

"He's not in a hurry, and neither are you?" Sun Wanran said angrily, "Why are you so stupid? He hasn't taken the initiative to pursue a girl in years. Why don't you understand?"

Wang Langli blushed, said "Oh", and asked weakly: "What should I do?"

Sun Wanran said: "What should I do? Just tell me! You go to him, speak clearly, and go to his room tonight. It's such a simple thing."

Wang Langli bit her lip and stopped talking.

How can she be embarrassed by this?

Sun Wanran rolled her eyes, "Then what do you want to do?"

Wang Langli whispered: "How about you go and tell the boss..."

Sun Wanran laughed and said: "This is your life-long event, you still want me to help? I can help, but doesn't that destroy the tacit understanding between the two of you?"

Wang Langli said softly: "Aren't you the secretary-general?"

"I'm not, Ning Yaxian is." Sun Wanran can't bear the responsibility, "I can be regarded as the deputy general manager at most. Ning Yaxian is going to leave the company. She has a higher emotional intelligence than me. She can speak English, Japanese, and French. There will be no me in the future. location.”

Wang Langli was a little shy, "I'm not familiar with her..."

Sun Wanran said: "Okay, your boss will go back to the study to work in a while. Come with me!"

…

In the evening, I must have working hours.

Senior sister Zhen Yu is also there.

Zhou Buqi had a secret talk with her first, "There is no need to rush to sell Microsoft's stocks. After talking to Kurian today, I discovered something new. Microsoft's growth momentum is still quite strong. It has only been in development for a few months. , the software services field has surpassed Oracle and SAP with more than 2 billion US dollars, especially Nadella is an Indian, very shameless.”

Zhen Yu hadn’t sold much of Microsoft’s stock in the first place. When she heard this, she couldn’t help laughing, “Isn’t Nadella the CEO of Microsoft?”

Zhou Buqi said: "Yes, that's him! You're so shameless, you're plagiarizing me! This is because you're targeting Ziweiyun, and you're forcing yourself to do it! Ziweiyun's two core software services currently are, One is Weishu and the other is Netdisk. The annual revenue of the two software exceeds 8 billion US dollars, and Microsoft is trying to challenge me!"

Zhen Yu didn't know much about business matters, but she understood what he meant, "Microsoft has also launched a network disk business, as well as collaborative office software?"

Zhou Buqi said: "The network disk business has always been there, but it was done too poorly in the past. Microsoft didn't think much about the Internet. It used software thinking to build network disks, which of course doesn't work. Now Nadella is different. He uses the Internet. I have adopted an open mind to operate the network disk, and even changed the name from SkyDrive to OneDrive. Look at this name, it means that I want to be the first in the industry!”

Netdisk products are a loss-making business in the country.

Even the best Weidian Netdisk and Baidu Netdisk will lose hundreds of millions a year.

It's different overseas.

Have stronger spending power and more paying users.

EverDrive, a network disk owned by Ziweixing International and affiliated with Ziweiyun, has become the world's largest network disk product under Kurian's leadership, with more than 380 million users worldwide, including more than 70 million paid membership users. Annual membership fees alone exceed $5 billion.

It has more network disk products than the second, third, fourth, and fifth ranked online disk products combined. It can be said that it is the only one company.

Netdisk has become Ziweiyun's most profitable product, and it is a software service product.

Although Microsoft is a software giant, Kurian is not bad either. His specialty is software.

After planning for so many years in advance, he is very confident in Ziweiyun's software services.

Microsoft has adjusted its strategy and become "cloud first". To focus on developing Microsoft Cloud, it is natural to target the industry leaders. The first is to change Microsoft's thinking from software to Internet thinking, and use Internet thinking to promote the newly renamed Microsoft network disk OneDrive.

Zhen Yu asked: "The network disk business should not pose any threat, right? I am also using a network disk. I think EverDrive is the best network disk. It is not so much a cloud service, but more like a C-side Internet." product."

Zhou Buqi nodded, "Indeed, the Internet attribute of the network disk product is very strong. Even if Microsoft wants to change, it is almost impossible to pose a threat to EverDrive. However, they have office, which is their trump card. Microsoft relies on it every year Selling office software can generate tens of billions of dollars in revenue. Now they are not only building office cloud services, but also building a team collaboration product around office.”

“Imitate Weishu?”

"right!"

"This is really scary."

Zhen Yu also realized the threat. Office is a super giant. It is a must-learn office software for many white-collar workers in the workplace. She is familiar with the shortcut keys. Even though Google Docs, Weishu and other products also include the functions of the office suite, white-collar workers in the workplace are not in the computer industry and they don’t know how to use them. Even if they can use them, they are not as proficient as office software.

This will reversely require companies to only purchase office software when purchasing.

In many university computer exams for non-computer industries, the use of Office is tested, rather than competing products such as Weishu and Google Docs.

Usage habits and usage thresholds are destined to the longevity of the office suite.

Microsoft plans to launch a collaborative office software with the backing of Office, and then compete with Weishu. This is very powerful.

Zhou Buqi said: "This is hearsay. It is said that it is being developed internally by Microsoft and may be launched in the next one or two years. I believe this is true. Ballmer may not be able to do this kind of plagiarism. Now it is replaced by Nadella, he doesn’t have those concerns.”

Zhen Yu nodded lightly, "It seems like Microsoft still has great potential!"

Zhou Buqi said: "Fortunately, I won LinkedIn. If Microsoft buys LinkedIn and integrates it with Microsoft Cloud, the cloud computing industry market may really change. Even if Ziweiyun cannot be shaken The number one position in the industry will also significantly reduce Ziweiyun’s market share.”

"Okay, I understand. I have an understanding of Microsoft's expectations." Zhen Yu is very relaxed now, because she is very rich, and her family now has more than 2 billion US dollars in funds. "Alibaba is going to be listed. What do you mean? Hold it for the long term, or cash out at the right time? Or take advantage of the IPO opportunity to cash out some of your shares?”

Zhou Buqi said: "Farewell, Boss Ma is very worried now. His equity is very complicated. How many people want to cash out and make a fortune, but he is too busy. Let's not add to the chaos. Let's wait until later." When the lock-up period is over, we will release it slowly.”

"Also, Netflix is ​​going to issue a debt, but Netflix's debt is already quite high, and the interest required by financial institutions is too high. They asked me if I could show my support and subscribe for US$500 million."

Zhen Yu is also confident.

Even though her family's debt is still over 4 billion US dollars, she is already planning to buy other people's bonds and borrow money from others.

After all, Netflix is ​​very important and is the core asset of the Zhou family.

Major shareholders should take a stand as a matter of course.

Zhou Buqi said: "Then go buy it! The current worries of the management are probably related to us. Isn't Ziweixing Global about to launch a new streaming media platform? A lot of capital is waiting and watching. They are worried about Netflix. future. Let’s take a stand and give the outside world reassurance.”

Zhen Yu laughed and said: "If you think about it, our shareholding and interest ratio in Netflix are higher than those in Ziwei Star Global. Netflix's interests are more in line with our interests."

Zhou Buqi said: "It's not surprising that people only care about power."
