The Goddess Shines on America

　　 When job seekers apply for a job, they have an extraordinary focus on the scale of the company, because apart from the salary level, reputation and office environment, the personal growth of employees is also closely related to this point.

　　Many large-scale enterprises have talent training plans or perfect employee promotion channels. Because they have a deep understanding of the importance of talents, they will spare no effort to keep all capable people in the company.

　　 Among them, as the most typical way to tie company executives or senior technical personnel firmly, stock options. The measure is to allow employees to purchase company stocks at the company's internal prices, rather than the market prices in the exchange, so as to become small shareholders of the company. As for a series of top managers such as CEO, CFO, COO, etc., they even donate shares directly.

Therefore, when Alice proposed to buy shares of Microsoft with technology, Gates and his team certainly agreed without hesitation. For them who have been in the market for nearly ten years, they knew Alice from the beginning. What is the idea?

　　The only, most important, and almost eternal issue is the shareholding ratio.

　　 "The important thing here is the long-term benefits my daughter can bring to the company, that is, her personal development potential."

Facing the men in the house, Sophie said loudly: "Her age is obviously the biggest advantage. She is only twelve years old now, but she can be alone, and the cost is many times faster than the combined use of more than fifty of you. The efficiency of this operating system was developed. In other words, her ability alone is equal to three or four times that of everyone in your company. For this comparison, I believe you don’t have much objection, right?"

"To be honest, if it were not because Microsoft was already a large platform with a good scale, we could have an independent portal. Mr. Gates and Mr. Allen, please imagine that if our family Alice set up a business alone, with her talent, we would How much impact did it have on Microsoft?"

　　 "So, I think the 40% share distribution is not an exaggeration. It still takes into account that you are the veterans of the company. After all, she can top all your employees alone, right?"

　　 Very excessive proposal. After all, the company is not on the verge of bankruptcy. It is not a simple decision to force everyone to squeeze out nearly half of the shares and give a stranger who has no friendship at all. But no one at the scene was angry with Sophie's request, because this is only a part of unilaterally making personal requests, and bargaining is always the focus.

　　 "On the surface, this is indeed the case, Ms. Wang."

Ballmer looked at Alice mother and daughter with a smile, but the twinkling of the eyes meant that he was not so foolish: "However, if you just hand over this work, you want to get so high. Of course, I’m not skeptical of Alice’s talents, nor am I bullying her because she has no roots at Microsoft, but she is considered a newcomer in the entire computer world, right? Although this system It's really good, but..."

　　 Ballmer paused briefly, and that's it. Gates immediately intervened: "Alice, about what you left in the trial version, that Cisco Systems, did you build it?"

　　 In a total of about ten days, people at Microsoft have already investigated the "Cisco Systems" mentioned in Alice's letter, but the industry seems to have no information on it. As for the company's yellow pages, which are as big as the United States, where do they go to look at the records of each city?

Therefore, everyone is naturally more curious about it. Although it is just a text document stored in a computer that has no legal benefit at all, it is a small essay written by a young girl, and it is full of secondary diseases. English string of dying confession of terminal patient.

　　"A computer industry company whose main business is to produce network hardware equipment."

Alice took the answer and said with a smile: "At present, I am preparing to develop, and the products are all invented by me. As for the effect, everyone has used my operating system. It is not necessary for my programming ability. Doubt?"

　　 Although all the people present are pioneers in the application software industry, how can they not be interested in the term Internet hardware? Under Gates’s sudden excitement, Alice explained the knowledge of routers and network protocols for the next full twenty minutes.

"Now that the entire computer industry is booming, major telecom operators are also laying cables across the country. Even IBM is also involved. Therefore, the development potential of the Internet hardware field is unquestionable. Almost every company in the scope will need to use the network, of course, government agencies and public settings, and even when PCs gradually spread to thousands of households, the development of home networks will generate new stimuli for this industry."

　　 Alice talked to Gates about the development trend of the global Internet, but she was not afraid that Microsoft would steal her business, because she knew very well the main tactics for Cisco to become the dominant player in this field. Looking at Microsoft's entire company, there are engineers in the field of software technology. If they want to switch to network communication technology, the price/performance ratio is too low.

"So, potential and talent, these two together, are the biggest weights for me to negotiate with you today. Now is the golden age of the computer industry. As pioneers who emerged in the 1970s, you can at least use The advantage lasted until the 90s. And now the 80s is the embryonic stage of the Internet industry. I am now a pioneer in this field. In terms of capabilities, this operating system can already prove all problems... Just like Picasso’s exhibition of Guernica, the ability does not need to be explained."

　　 "40%, this share is really not an exaggeration. After all..."

At this point, Alice smirked: "Although I'm just guessing, you know what your progress is. You know better than me. Now so many competing companies are developing new systems, I can save you almost one dollar. Years. Well, Bill, can you have a year?"

　　 After speaking, she smiled thiefly and kicked the ball to Gates.

　　 After a long silence, Gates sighed slowly.

　　Where is the other party sacred? Only relying on external information can we understand the status quo of Microsoft so thoroughly?

Enterprise development, of course, must do everything within the legal scope. Therefore, as early as last summer at the Las Vegas Computer Expo, Gates advertised that windows 1.0 would be available this spring. In fact, the company This product is not being developed at all at this time.

　　 has been so busy until now, the progress is only a small part of it. Just a few days before Alice’s tape was sent, Gates made a process calculation for himself. As a result, he knew clearly that it would be difficult to get the product out before the beginning of next year. When it is released to the market, it really has to wait until the end of 1985.

He is really still wondering how Alice came to this conclusion. After all, he already knows that the other party is an ordinary girl in Los Angeles, not a senior industry person who travels to and from Silicon Valley every day, and has never set foot. The land of Albuquerque.

　　So, after another round of discussions, when the twilight had come, Alice's benefit distribution was finally revealed.

　　 First of all, the technology invested 35%. Although this value is a little less than Sophie's proposal, it is completely within the range of Alice's acceptance. After all, she is very aware of the future development of Microsoft. Although 5% will have a difference of nearly tens of billions of dollars...it is a tens of billions of billionaires, whether it is ranked third or fourth, who cares?

　　 Besides, she still has Cisco, and she has Cisco now.

　　 Besides, this ratio is not impossible to adjust at all. For example, when she throws out 98 and XP systems again...

Then there is still an old question, because Alice is too young, and she has to go to school—in middle school, in seventh grade middle school, a grade that makes all Microsoft executives not know what to say—so of course it’s impossible to hold anything in the company.

　　 seems a pity, but as long as the real ability is in hand, does it really matter who the title belongs to?

　　 Just before leaving the company, Gates personally bid farewell to Alice's family. When they walked out the door, Alice said loudly: "Mom, you should get in the car and look at the contract first. I'll talk to Bill again."

　　 Sophie's gaze swept between the two of them, and she smiled softly: "You don't plan to suddenly go to a fast food restaurant for a meal, right?"

　　 Oscar and Hannah immediately made vomiting sounds quite cooperatively, and were then turned into the car under James' elbow.

　　 "Hehe, your two siblings are really interesting."

　　 Seeing Hannah making faces to herself before entering the car, Gates chuckled slightly.

　　 Then, he immediately frowned and looked at the girl beside him: "So, Alice..."

　　 "In short, to continue to keep confidential is that you have performed well in front of the media these past two days, keep on cheering."

　　 Alice patted Gates on the shoulder. At this time, there was no one else around the two of them at the door of this office building.

　　 smiled happily at Gates, but the blue eyes had turned black, and there were more stars-like rays of light shining on them.

　　 "Otherwise, watch out for me to twist you into twists, Bill~"

　　 He stared at Alice's eyes blankly, and Gates swallowed and spitted hard.
