Microsoft is not satisfied and will continue to appeal. But everyone knows the outcome of the appeal will not change. For this kind of case that had already been confirmed to have broken the law, another appeal might result in a higher fine due to time constraints.
The government sued the company, and the government was still in the right. How could they lose? Although Hua Xia also said that the power between the government and the court was separated, it was hard to believe that there was no impact.
The next court session, the final hearing, would be settled in one go.
After losing the lawsuit against Hua Xia, Microsoft also lost the lawsuit in Eastern Europe. After that, South Korea and Japan also start to target Microsoft.
At this time, the sales of XOS were in full swing. After Lenovo Group announced that they will no longer install Microsoft OS, two other PC manufacturers announced that they will no longer install Microsoft OS in their new products. This made things worse for Microsoft.
The deadliest blow was Softbank's announcement to support XOS and launched a series of applications. But most of these applications do not support Microsoft XP.
Softbank's new software products are selling well, and they are already very powerful.
But they are still unhappy. For example, Director Kameda promised to let Softbank's products enter the Hua Xia market. But in reality, he did not do so.
On the other hand, Wind and Rain Holdings' products entered the Japanese market through Softbank and Softbank's channels.
For example, if Softbank had not publicly announced their support for the XOS system, the XOS system would not have been promoted so quickly. There was no category in the IT industry that Softbank did not invest in.
"Director Kameda, how is the cooperation between my clothing brand and Tai Hua Supermarket Group going?" One of Softbank's directors asked.
"It's not easy. Tai Hua Supermarket Corporation is not owned by Wind and Rain Holdings, and my influence is limited. Last time, I helped Softbank earn a lot of money, and Zong Qingxian is very unhappy with me. "Masao Kameda started to find excuses.
"It shouldn't be, right? Wahaha's products had entered Japan's market. I am the one who introduced them to Japan. "
"Wahaha is Wahaha. It does not represent Tai Hua Supermarket Corporation."
"Director Kameda, what about the merger between Asian Tiger and Hua Xia's other web portals? Didn't you say we can exchange for Baidu's shares? "Asian Tiger Japan's CEO, who is also Softbank's director, Saburo Murata asked.
"Li Yanhong has the final say in Baidu, and he ignores me."
"Can't we work with Google?"
"The two founders of Google are unhappy with the Asian tiger. They had wanted to sell to the Asian tiger but were rejected by the Asian tiger. If you were in my shoes, would you turn back? "Masao Kameda acted as if the Asian tiger was in the wrong.
"Then why can't our anti-virus software company enter the Hua Xia market? We are the world's largest corporate defense experts. "
"I did introduce them, but they said that our Japanese company was attacked by US hackers. This proves that we are not the strongest, and we have a fatal loophole. That's why they need to reconsider. This is normal. Hua Xia has a saying. To forge iron, one must be strong. "
"Director Kameda, you keep evading us. Are you not going to help us?" Saburo Murata asked angrily.
"What are you talking about? If I don't want to help you, why would I be sitting here talking to you?"
"But you've only moved your mouth. You've never really done anything!" Director Kangfu added.
Bang!
Masao Kameda banged the table. "Are you blaming me? If you are capable, you can do it. How many times have I told you not to rush this matter? Don't you understand? "
Masao Kameda's outburst had caught all of them by surprise. They were furious. You had not done anything, and we had done so much for you. Why are you banging the table now?
They also started banging the table and shouting. Anyway, Masao Kameda can't do anything to them.
As they argued, Masao Kameda suddenly shouted. "You all think I am taking advantage of Softbank? Fine. I will resign. From now on, I am no longer Softbank's director! "
"Hmph! You think I, Masao Kameda, can't make money after leaving Softbank? I am still the CEO of Wind and Rain Holdings!"
"Masao Kameda, think carefully. Last month, the CEO of Wind and Rain Holdings was changed to Ralph from the US. This shows that Feng Yu does not trust you completely and found someone to keep you in check. "Saburo Murata sneered.
Masao Kameda thought to himself. I was the one who suggested Boss to do this. Boss has too many businesses, and I can't manage all of them. Although I wasn't the CEO anymore, I still earned a lot, and the boss trusted me even more.
Also, I can be closer to Boss and home. All of you don't even know what is going on.
Masao Kameda can't say what he is thinking. He immediately scolds Saburo. "If I am not Softbank's director, will I be the CEO? Do you know how much the CEO of Wind and Rain Holdings is getting paid? Do you know that many companies under Wind and Rain Holdings are going to be listed? "
"I am still the CEO of Wind and Rain Holdings. But in Softbank, I can only be an ordinary director. How much power do you all give me? You all think Softbank is good, but I don't think so. "
At this time, Kang Fu said loudly, "Okay, if you resign, we can get a bigger share of the money."
Kameda Masao did not say a word and turned to leave. He had found a suitable excuse to resign, and Softbank will not react too strongly. For example, targeting Lenovo Kingsoft's XOS, etc.
Anyway, he had received his last year's salary yesterday. He did not ask for shares. Instead, he asked for cash. Because of Microsoft's expansion, many of Softbank's investments in China had made high profits. That's why Kameda Masao's salary is very high.
Masao Kameda had come here to make some money and help Wind and Rain Holdings and Taihua Holdings enter the Japanese market. He will also help Lenovo Kingsoft to market their operating system.
Now, he had completed the task well, and Feng Yu was very satisfied. Although Masao Kameda is no longer the CEO of Wind and Rain Holdings, Feng Yu increased his salary and allowed him to use a sum of money to buy some Wind and Rain Holdings shares as a reward.
Sun Zhengyi does not know about this. The next day, Masao Kameda announced in front of the Japanese media that he had handed in his resignation letter to Softbank. He will no longer be a director of Softbank.
His reason is different from the other directors, and they cannot work with him! Last year, Softbank's biggest profits were brought in by Masao Kameda, and those directors are still blaming him for not doing his job well. Masao Kameda felt that Softbank will go downhill under these people's management, and he is not interested in working for them.
After Masao Kameda's speech, many of Softbank's listed companies' share prices plunged!
