Silicon Valley

Chapter 80 Next Company

Henry asked Tian Shuai to register the company as soon as possible, and then recruit employees. As for other things, Henry said that Prestige Capital can do it all!

Tian Shuai nodded, took the check and left excitedly!

Henry was very happy to have the instant chat software in his pocket, he couldn't help but hummed a song and said proudly: "Good character is really good, brother received a super potential stock as soon as he came!!! Haha..."

"Looking at your virtue, you are so happy that you can't find the North," Henry Kaelina said puzzled: "I don't understand that chat software has such great potential? Is it worth your joy?"

"Hehe, the potential is not ordinary, you will understand later..." Henry smiled and deliberately sold the secret and did not tell Kaelina.

Kaelina glanced at him, and said angrily, "Hmph, you're still selling it... If the investment fails, I'll look at you!"

Henry smiled confidently: "How can I fail without seeing who I am? A touch of stone becomes gold, the hand of God, these words are all used to describe me! Although Tian Shuai's chat software is very simple and has a single function, But with me here, just a few ideas can make it soar to 90,000 miles, it's not good!!!"

Kaelina rolled his eyes at him, "You're amazing!" Anyone who knew something about Henry had to admit that he was a superb genius, and Kaelina was the same, admiring Henry's intelligence! Since he said that the potential of chat software is huge, there is no doubt that the software is really huge. Kaelina decided to observe it carefully in the future to find out, hmph, let's see how long he will be able to sell it!

Henry smiled and put his face in front of Kaelina and said, "What's the matter, are you angry?"

"No!" Karina turned her face to the side.

Henry stretched his arms around her waist, Kaelina blushed, and looked around, struggling and whispering, "Don't make trouble, let me go!"

Henry smiled and said, "I won't let it go!"

Kaelina struggled weakly, and her body was held by him, but she scolded: "Henry, you are weak, let me go quickly..."

"Hehe, you won't get pregnant if you hug me. Besides, don't you like me hugging you?"

"Who likes your hug?!!" Kelina said with a blushing face.

Henry looked at Kaelina's blushing face, smiled, put his face close to hers, rubbed his ears, felt the smoothness and body temperature on her face, and said slowly: "Okay, don't move, I'm about to give What about your chat software!"

"Actually, the reason why I value chat software is very simple! Think for yourself, whether it is reality or the Internet, communication is an essential behavior of human beings. Naturally, chat software has great potential! And once it develops, users After the increase, it will form a great stickiness. This stickiness is much stronger than that of search and e-commerce, which means that chat software will bring huge traffic! If the traffic is large, you can make money, which is inevitable As for how to make money, you have to use your brains to figure out how to cash out traffic and turn it into profit! Finally, and the most important point, the Matthew effect of chat software is most thoroughly reflected in the Internet. , once it becomes stronger, it will be difficult for other chat software to catch up! For example, if your friends are all in the ICQ software, would you use a software without your own friends? Even if you can use it, who are you chatting with..."

Henry paused and said with a smile: "The first-mover advantage of chat software is obvious. Therefore, the sooner the chat software is launched, the better. The task of setting up ICQ company, you need to serve snacks, it is our money-making treasure!"

Kaelina was so excited that she forgot that Henry was holding her for a while, but just thinking of what Henry said just now, she instantly felt that the chat software had unlimited potential!

"Well, don't worry, I will arrange it!" Kaelina nodded.

"It's so cute!!!" Henry said, kissing her cheek.

Kaelina's pretty face blushed immediately, and only then did she realize that she was still in Henry's arms...

...

After arranging employees to guard the booth of Prestige Capital, Henry then took Kaelina to the Silicon Valley Technology Exhibition. The most popular companies are IBM and Sony. IBM's notebook computers are warmly sought after by everyone, and Sony's Walkman is also very popular. This year, Apple and Sony jointly designed and launched the notebook computer PowerBook, which is also a major highlight. In particular, the notebook's appearance is very fashionable, which is simply a replica of the future notebook computer shape! Despite this, Henry knew that Apple's sales would also decline...

As for Apple's founder, Steve Jobs, he's also coming to the tech show now. After he left Apple, he founded NeXT Computer Company, adhering to Jobs' extremely strict and perfect character, and finally launched the Next workstation computer, which is cool, expensive and powerful, but the price is tens of thousands of dollars, which is prohibitive... So , and ultimately did not sell much.

You know, today's personal computers are generally two or three thousand dollars a piece, even if it is a workstation computer, fifty or sixty thousand is already too expensive. But a Next workstation computer costs $100,000, so who would buy it? However, this is no wonder Jobs, the computer cost is high, if you don't sell it more expensive, you will lose money!

Henry came to Jobs' booth. At this moment, he was giving a passionate speech, because Next Company launched a very small workstation computer, the NeXTStation, but it was still expensive... Even if Jobs spoke like a lotus flower, it still didn't work. Egg ~ use, things still can't sell!

However, Henry could vaguely see a glimpse of the style of Jobs in his previous life standing at the product launch of the iPhone!

"Jobs is still Jobs, but he will never be Apple's Jobs again!" Henry shook his head with a complicated expression!

Speaking of which, Next is a good company. There are many talents in it, and most of them are poached from Apple!

Steve Jobs poached people too fiercely, and he has a kind of momentum that he will not stop until he hollows out Apple! In the end, Apple had to take Jobs to court, which stopped this dramatic poaching operation...

The things made by NeXT are very level, the shape and function are not to be said. But it was going in the wrong direction. Next is neither high nor low, neither high-end nor low-end, it is the rhythm of courting death!

According to the statistics of the previous life, from the establishment of Next company to the sale to Apple, that is, in the eleven years from 1985 to 1996, all the company's products combined did not sell a total of 50,000 units... This figure is definitely a great shame for Jobs. Almost to the blow of Jobs!

You know, Apple sells a lot more computers than it does in a month! ! !

Comparing the two, you can imagine how frustrated Jobs was...

However, it is wrong. In 1993, Jobs reluctantly stopped the hardware business due to the difficulty of capital circulation, and turned to focus on the development of the software market. API (that is, OPENSTEP), a set of network programming framework WebObjects, used to generate dynamic web pages. These NeXT technologies eventually became the core foundation of Apple's Mac-OS-X and iOS operating systems!

It can be said that Next is an extremely important part of the future success of Apple!

Without it, Apple's mobile phone system will definitely not be as good as Android!

Henry was thinking, Jobs, are you going to sell Next? (I worked overtime temporarily until 12:00 pm last night, sorry, there is no way to update.)
