The Goddess Shines on America

Chapter 41 Microsoft's Morning

Copying a book at random, and letting the industry's top book company operate and publish it, Alice's "Jurassic Park" can be said to be costless. Facing the computer, relying on her terrifying memory and abundant physical strength, she could transcribe other people's works at a speed of tens of thousands of words per hour. Of course, she would not pay too much attention to such a random thing.

It's just that Sissy was really overwhelmed by her. Although no one knew exactly when Alice started writing this book, the achievements are beyond doubt. A casual provocation by myself caused my friend to throw out a long book at a flying speed, and it was impossible for any girl to be calm about this.

In particular, Alice has shown the manuscript to Sissy, and of course, the whole family has carefully read the "Jurassic Park" that should have been edited by the famous writer, famous screenwriter and famous director, Michael Clayton. . Although the deity is of course alive at this time, and it should be written in a few years, as long as the publication date of Alice is slightly before the start of the conception stage of the deity, it will not matter.

In this way, the rest of the days in May passed quickly, and the hot June has arrived. During this total of about fifteen days, Bantam Books has indeed taken action, and has begun preliminary promotional activities for "Jurassic Park", that is, widely distributing various survey manuals, questionnaires, leaflets, etc.

At the same time, as far away as San Francisco, Cisco, which is registered in the living room of a residential house, has also developed a little bit. After nearly a month of hard work, Santee was extremely frustrated to find that after spending so much time and thousands of dollars, she still couldn't optimize Alice's router design.

This is of course a matter of course. After Alice talked to Bosac many times, she came to this conclusion with a silent smile.

After all, although the router I handed over is definitely a strictly defective product with low efficiency and few functions compared with the later products, it only depends on the contemporary network construction requirements and hardware level. If it is purely from the design level, it has really reduced the cost to the minimum.

To put it bluntly, Alice is designing old-age products at the level of the 21st century. For example, when the car was first born at the end of the 19th century, she moved out the assembly line operation method of Ford Motor. Although the shape and performance of the car are still subject to the times, the production efficiency can no longer be improved. .

At the company, there really isn't much Alice can do right now. The Bosacks are busy, and when they actually invent the finished router, sell it to several users, and earn an order of hundreds of thousands of dollars, it will not be until next year at least.

In the field of books, it is still only the most preliminary market research period, and the five members of the Wang family even filled out five questionnaires by themselves. Whether it's the release of the new book, or Alice's heart, it's still too early for Spielbert to make it into a movie.

Therefore, in this hot June, she first focused her attention on a certain celebrity.

Bill Gates.

As early as when she was very young, after she realized that her brain was extremely developed and intelligent, especially her mental power could be used as a superpower, Alice had no intention of being just an ordinary person. It's a pity that even before last year, she was only in the fifth grade of elementary school, and it was really impossible for her to do anything.

But now, since it was a coincidence, they met the Bosacks after they had just made a router, and they established Cisco as a matter of course. Well, even though she is still young, Alice really doesn't plan to be honest anymore.

Wednesday, June 20.

Albuquerque, New Mexico.

The noon sun shines on the urban area full of vehicles. As the largest city in New Mexico, Albuquerque accommodates nearly half a million residents. Not only is the Kirtland Air Force Base located here, but also the University of New Mexico, Sandia The National Laboratory and the Petrified Forest National Monument are located here. It is not only the scientific research base of nuclear energy and new energy, aerospace, and computing engineering in the United States after World War II, but also one of the cities with the fastest population growth in the country.

This is one of the reasons why Bill Gates registered Microsoft here.

Founded only nine years ago, Microsoft is already a well-known conglomerate in Albuquerque, and indeed, as a new computer company, it's been stealing the show lately.

At last year's Computer Expo in Las Vegas, Microsoft's young CEO Bill Gates spent a lot of energy, desperately promoting a new product of the company. Not only did he make all the taxi lights in Vegas display the words Microsoft-Windows 1.0, even the pillows of every hotel in the city were printed with these things, the publicity was really extraordinary!

So, what win, what dos, what the hell is this?

Windows operating system, and unlike the damn closed source of Apple's "Lisa", CEO Gates has long stated that the operating system will open access to third parties, allowing other companies to design various software on this platform. In short, according to his propaganda, it is a new type of operating system currently used by Apple.

It's a pity that this company, which has an annual net profit of tens of millions in less than nine years since its establishment, has been delayed for a long time. During the promotion last year, Gates kept saying that Microsoft would release the system in the spring of 1984, but now it's mid-June, and they haven't even released a fart.

Of course, no one is in a hurry, users and third-party companies don't really care when Microsoft's new products will be released, and his competitors even hope that it will not be released. As for the media, of course, there are topics to discuss regardless of whether it is published or not, whether it is satire or flattery, it is nothing more than the same editor writing two different articles, no one is in a hurry.

Except Microsoft itself.

"It's not done yet, it's not done yet, this algorithm is unqualified, and that algorithm is definitely unqualified..."

The roaring sound of fans is everywhere in the hot computer room. Ordinary people will sweat profusely and feel dizzy as long as they stay here for a while. But in such an environment, a blond-haired, baby-faced man was sitting in a corner, holding a small notebook, muttering non-stop.

"Mr. Gates? Mr. Gates?"

A woman in her forties walked to the entrance of the central computer room. Compared with other secretaries, Lu Bao, as a mother of four children, was obviously more kindly motherly.

"Mr. Allen said that he has something urgent to call you, and he will hold a general meeting of the company immediately!"

The man was Bill Gates, and his baby face made him look younger than anyone his age.

Lu Bao still remembers what kind of joke he made when he first joined Microsoft.

That was several years ago. When she first joined Microsoft as a secretary, she was told that the company's central computer room was a top-secret area, and no one else could approach it.

Lubao certainly remembered this requirement.

But one day, she suddenly saw a young man walking into the company. A young man who had never seen her before walked into the central computer room in a big way. According to the regulations, of course she immediately reported to her supervisor, and she got the answer: "That is our chairman."

"Chairman? God, how old is he this year?"

"21 years old."

This is the answer Lubao got. As for the particularly young baby face, later, when people from many other companies called to ask how to recognize Gates at the airport, Lubao would say: "It's very easy, As long as you see a big boy who seems to be only 16 years old, with blond hair, glasses, and a very different temperament, that is our CEO!"

At the same time, since she is already a mother of four children, for Gates, Lubao really feels like she is taking care of her son. She is even more aware that Gates often hangs out in the computer room with the company's other founder, Paul Allen, and is always busy.

"Mr. Gates?"

So at this moment, after seeing Gates "again" "in a daze" in the computer room, she was not surprised and patiently shouted: "Mr. Allen wants you to go to the meeting!"

It wasn't until she yelled this sentence three more times that Gates finally raised his head: "Lubao, if it's just the same content, let me stay here."

Lu Bao clicked his tongue: "Bill, I don't know what's going on, but Mr. Allen is obviously very anxious. Dozens of people in the whole company have already gathered, and you are the only one missing."

After dawdling for a few seconds, Gates stood up from the concrete floor, patted his buttocks and said, "What's the trouble with that damn baby face? Don't you know I'm working on a damn algorithm? You bastard!"

Complaining, Gates strode out of the computer room and deftly found the door leading to the conference room.

"Oh damn it, Bill, you're here!"

The person who spoke had a big, shiny head. It was the senior Gates knew at Harvard, and the current executive vice president of sales support at Microsoft, Steve Ballmer.

When his voice fell, Gates also noticed that the whole room was occupied by people from the entire company. Fifty-five engineers stood in a pile. Among them, Paul Allen, Gates' good buddy and another founder of Microsoft, wearing round glasses, had a serious face.

"What's the matter, Alan, this serious expression doesn't suit you."

Paul didn't have any interest in teasing, so he opened his mouth.

"Bill, someone developed windows before us."
