Tony didn't want to die, so he immediately began to collect all the information. He planned to hand it over to the headquarters as soon as possible and shift the blame.
However, just as Tony was about to send the information to the headquarters through the company's internal channels, his hand paused.
Tony was very familiar with the guy in charge of Asian affairs. Sending information through his hands was simply courting death.
Well, at this time, the benefits of being a foreign CEO were reflected. After all, foreign CEOs had the guts to call Bill Gates directly, but Hua Xia's CEO definitely didn't have the guts.
Even if he had the guts, he didn't have Bill Gates's contact information!
When Bill Gates received Tony's call, he had almost closed his eyes and was about to fall asleep on the bed. Therefore, he was quite angry and unhappy about Tony's call.
After the phone call, all of Bill Gates's anger and unhappiness seemed to have disappeared. Instead, it was replaced by a chill all over his body. His whole body was about to be frozen into a ball of ice.
Then, Bill Gates learned the truth about Hua Xia.
The news that 5 million pirated systems were forcibly uninstalled was not wrong. In fact, 5 million had now become 8 million, and the number was still increasing.
However, these 5 million pirated Windows systems that were uninstalled did not all become genuine Windows systems. The reason was very simple. Hua Xia's people couldn't afford to install a genuine Windows system that cost 900 yuan. In their opinion, a small disc that cost two yuan could solve the problem. Actually spending 900 yuan to install it was the most ridiculous thing in the world!
Therefore, when the Hongmeng System's completely free advertisements swept across the sky, these pirated users began to change to the Hongmeng System.
After all, many people had already experienced the Hongmeng System in the Internet cafe. There were indeed all kinds of commonly used software. The most important thing was that the commonly used games could run normally in the Hongmeng System.
As for those very specialized software, although the Hongmeng System didn't have it, the peddlers who sold the Hongmeng System would secretly install the Pangu Axe software in the system when they sold the Hongmeng System discs.
Yes, this was another one of Hongmeng's tricks. The Daqian published an open letter to the public, announcing that all CD-ROM software operators could download the Hongmeng client, which was specially developed for CD-ROMs and was suitable for installation through CD-ROMs. Anyone could download it and sell it to the public, and then sell it to the public. Hongmeng Group would admit that these systems were authentic, and would even provide official follow-up services!
This announcement shocked many pirates in Hua Xia. They had never seen an authentic company so cooperative in their lives!
Therefore, they immediately began to take action. Although many people complained, were pirates still considered pirates if they bought the original version?
But if they could sell the original, who would want to sell the pirated version?
Therefore, these pirates immediately flocked to the market. The Daqian didn't even need to take the initiative to expand the market. In less than three days, all the small shops in Hua Xia that sold CD-ROMs were filled with authentic Hongmeng System discs.
At the same time, in order to sell their CD-ROMs well, these operators took the initiative to tell the customers that the anti-piracy operation was very strict. Their relatives, friends, and even the dogs of their uncles were all arrested. Everyone had to pay a fine of tens of thousands of yuan. Some public officials were even fired directly.
In any case, all the customers were shocked. Many customers who didn't care about the anti-piracy operation and thought that it was impossible for anyone to break into their shops to anti-piracy started to worry and fear.
Then, these peddlers began to promote the Hongmeng System, saying that it was absolutely authentic. Every day, CCTV would advertise it.
The key was that these CD-ROMs were cheap. One CD only cost five yuan. They only earned the cost of the CD.
As long as the customers spent an extra 5 yuan, they could avoid the risk of a fine of tens of thousands of yuan. It was really a good deal. After all, a liter of gas now cost 2.50 yuan, and this disc only cost 2 liters of gas. It was simply too cheap!
Of course, there were also customers who expressed their worries. What if the Hongmeng System couldn't run the software they used often? At this time, the merchants would throw out a huge list of software applications supported by the Hongmeng System. Anyway, it was very long, the kind that people didn't have the desire to read carefully.
If the customer still expressed doubts, they would secretly tell the customer that their shop actually had a special installation disk integrated with the Pangu Axe software. Once installed, it would come with the Pangu Axe. This way, it could run all the software in the world.
Moreover, this was the latest generation of the Pangu Axe. It had a super stealth function. It could hide its existence. Unless it was a professional, ordinary police officers who came to investigate wouldn't be able to find any trace of the Pangu Axe. It was a very safe version!
At the same time, to make it easier for users to install it themselves, this version of the Hongmeng System was an idiot's version. At the same time, it came with a random guide. As long as the user followed the instructions in the guide and manually entered DOS mode, then pressed a few buttons, the system could be automatically reinstalled!
Even things like dividing the disks could be done automatically by the installation package. It was as easy as it could get.
As everyone knew, the Huaxia people's business talent was amazing, and they were even more amazing when it came to selling disks. Therefore, a large number of PC users who originally did not intend to change their system began to silently buy a disk. According to the strategy guide, they directly and very easily reinstalled their own system!
Even if there was a problem with the children's clothing, they only need to call Hongmeng's customer service, and the company will send a professional to fix the problem. It doesn't matter if the PC user bought the children's clothing from the original channel or from the original channel.
All in all, under Da Qian's series of complete and rapid operations, the personal computer systems of all of China began to undergo an astonishing transformation.
Within a month, 5 million pirated Windows were converted to the original Hongmeng system. At this time, Gao Qunyao couldn't take it anymore. He had given up on Microsoft and resigned.
When the rest of the executives saw what happened to Gao Qunyao, they all followed him and left.
After all, Microsoft is still very popular in China. When Microsoft's executives leave the company, Hua Xia's bosses will immediately hire them with double the salary. At the same time, they will give them more power and status. These executives resigned without any hesitation and didn't even ask for compensation. They just want to leave Microsoft as soon as possible.
After all, Microsoft's Hua Xia employees know Hua Xia is fated to lose the PC market and Internet café market.
After a while, when the headquarters found out about the actual situation, they would probably be directly fired by the headquarters. At that time, with the title of being fired, it would be very difficult for them to find a job with good pay.
After these executives left, Microsoft's Hua Xia almost stopped its operations, and its resistance to Hongmeng is close to zero. In the end, Hongmeng took away another 3 million users within a week.
Although there might still be about 7 million Windows users left, according to Tony's estimation, there would only be 1 million users left in three months' time.
A year later, due to the strong collateral effect of the system market, when most users were using the Hongmeng system, other users would have no choice but to switch to the Hongmeng system. In the end, the entire Windows system in China would collapse.
"If we don't do anything, Hua Xia will never see Windows in the future!" This was Tony's last words to Bill Gates. Because of this sentence, Bill Gates couldn't sleep for the whole night. Even though he drank two bottles of red wine in the cupboard, it didn't have any effect on him.
