  Chapter 97 Regardless of whether humans or animals can survive

  When Tommy and his brothers had a meeting, Cambridge, Massachusetts, Lotus corporate headquarters, several Lotus company founders and executives were also sitting in the conference room, looking at the SSD-2 software running on the computer.

  This software overlaps with their Lotus1-2-3 only in the electronic form function, and the other function is electronic documents, which Lotus software does not have.

"The most extreme thing about this software is that it is compatible with our file format without our permission. That is to say, if a person uses Lotus to create and save a Lotus spreadsheet file with the suffix WKS, copy it with a floppy disk. Go to another computer that doesn't have Lotus software installed, but has this **** installed, and that **** can open our files." Lotus' vice president, CBO (Chief Business Officer) Jim Manzi on the company's founding Man, President and CEO Mitch Kapoor said:

"For this kind of behavior, just like what I did before, send a weak lawyer's letter to fuel the other party's arrogance and push him to quickly put the software on the market instead of testing it. I have already made people stare at that company, As long as they are released, lawyers and public relations forces will be used immediately to force the other party to stop development, hand over data, and lose money and go bankrupt. Use it above board in the next update of our software."

Mickey Kapoor, who was dressed in casual attire, clenched his hands into fists and stuffed them around his mouth, staring at the computer screen on the conference table at this time. After more than ten seconds, he spoke, but he did not respond to Jim Mann. Here, but looking at the co-founder of the company, who is also an alumnus of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, the company's chief technology officer Jonathan Sachs:

   "Has the data after your team tested it?"

"More accurate data will take a few days, but judging from the approximate data, if two people use these two softwares to do the same job, the efficiency of using that software can be increased by at least 15%, but the calculation is automatically filled. It can save a lot of time." Jonathan Sachs looked at Mickey:

"That software does not seem to emphasize professionalism, it only emphasizes efficiency and ease of use, it does not have the complex functions of those professional software, that is, simple document entry, spreadsheet entry, and the efficiency and ease of use in the existing Basically, it has achieved the ultimate. Some of the functions are even the functions that we have just received feedback from customers and are ready to develop as a project. Without extensive testing, it is impossible for a few or a dozen programmers to design such functions that consider the user's feelings. , I have been thinking, how did this Actor software company do it?"

"15%... 15%, do you know what this means? If a piece of software can increase the hourly productivity of a company's employees by 7%, the company boss will choose it without hesitation." Jim Manz at this time Continue to speak: "Put pressure, don't think about it any more, use public relations power, find a lawyer, and execute the other party directly. Swallowing them is the best solution."

Unlike Mitch and Jonathan, he, the chief commercial officer, was invited by Mitch after the company made money, because he, a professional graduated from the School of International and Public Relations, was needed to be in charge of the company's transaction decision-making and management. He didn't understand He didn't care how the software was developed, but he felt Mitch's shock and the fact that the software can improve efficiency. He doesn't know programming, but he understands capitalists. Rich people don't waste any time, so he gave his own identify the most efficient solution.

The other party is just a small nameless company. In his opinion, as long as he spends money on it, he can easily shut down the other party. Today's Lotus is not what it was a year and a half ago. It is now the third largest software company in the United States, with cash flow Sufficient, second only to Microsoft and MicroPort, as for the reason for lagging behind, because Lotus currently has only one software on sale, and the first two companies have been in operation for many years, Jim believes that in time, according to Mickey and his genius ideas, they will surpass Microsoft and MicroPort. Creation is only a matter of time.

"But it's not on sale in the world. I've followed your advice, haven't I? We sent a lawyer's letter. Now we just think, can we buy it, and solve it gently without being so drastic. I'm curious. What kind of student is able to develop this software." Mitch looked at Jim with a somewhat fierce tone, and smiled: "Maybe we can invite him to join Lotus, and he can contribute more wonderful ideas to Lotus."

Jonathan also nodded in agreement: "I think so too. If we can cooperate and merge that small company into Lotus, maybe in a few years, we can have a new chief technology officer to bring innovation to the company, and I can relax too."

   "What decision did you make?" Jim's eyes widened, and it looked like he was the president of the company.

"I'm about to let Jonathan fly to California to talk to him." Mickey said to Jim: "The other party is also a technology developer, he is the same kind of person as us, and we will cherish each other because we both understand the magic of 0 and 1. "

"No!" Jim Manz said emphatically: "Don't go to private contact, this is a company-level matter, put away the sympathy of programmers like you, Mitch, you let me manage this promising company, I I am very grateful, so for the sake of your respect for me, I must say, solve it as soon as possible, and your private contact will make the other party understand immediately that they have created something with potential, and then quickly develop it in Silicon Valley. Find an investor in a place where there are more investors than stray dogs. Do you know what it means to have an investor? It means that they can burn their money. When facing our offensive, they will form a team of lawyers to pull with us, and at the same time put the product Sending it into the market will make us passive! You are no longer the programmers who were typing codes in the garage a year and a half ago, you are now **** billionaire capitalists, and this is no longer a play house of the Association for Computing Machinery Competition, Actor is our potential opponent, either swallow it or destroy it! This is what the boss of the company should do."

Seeing that the two founders were ready to be the same as before, seeing the talented developers sympathize with each other, the first time they were not planning to kill each other, but to use money to help each other develop, Jim Manzi finally couldn't help it , Dissatisfaction broke out.

   "Jim, in the past six months, Lotus has become a **** in the eyes of many people just like Microsoft. Do you know why?" Mitch sighed, instead of blaming Jim for his excitement just now, he said:

   "Because in just half a year, we have closed dozens of individual software studios, according to the method you said, so people call us jerks."

   "It's my honor. For Lotus, in the second half of the year, I am willing to kill more idiots who always want to copy and learn from us!" Jim took out a cigar, lit it, and said in his mouth:

  "The insults from those people will only make me and Lotus stronger. I will make more money and stimulate those guys who can only curse incompetently. This is why you invited me here."

   "Jim..."

"If you insist, I will resign and go back to work at McKinsey. Mitch, you have to trust my business judgment, just like I believe you are a computer genius, and don't give your opponent any chance." Jim bit his cigar in his mouth, his eyes determined Looking at Mickey who wanted to speak:

"Just like what Yahweh said to all living beings in the Bible: Don't touch it with your hand, you will hit a stone or shoot an arrow, no matter whether it is human or animal, it will not survive. This is the way God teaches all living beings to deal with opponents. Don't violate God's law. will."

The second one is here~~ Some readers said they were worried about being blocked yesterday, don’t worry, it’s not a description of a criminal underworld, it’s just an emotional scene with action, I think it’s quite fun, but the review may feel that the action and characters can’t With that design, I won't write about those sensitive topics, don't worry, finishing the book is my first goal.
