The Goddess Shines on America

Gates quickly learned about the whole thing.

When receiving the courier this morning, as the nanny of 80% of the company's employees and the "mother" of more than 50 programmers, Lu Bao routinely took care of all the trivial matters, including unpacking the courier.

It's just that the delivery this time is a little different. It's not a regular order of breakfast milk, let alone bundles of toilet paper or office supplies, but a cassette.

Anyone who knows anything about computers knows that computer data is stored on magnetic tape. Although as early as four years ago, two former IBM employees founded a company called Seagate and developed a 5.25-inch 5MB hard drive, which made this guy as big as two refrigerators practical when it was first born. But as of now, magnetic tape is still the mainstay of storage.

Therefore, after Lobo realized that it was just a cassette, although he was surprised that there was only one cassette and not purchased in bulk as office supplies, he routinely put it together with other cassettes.

It stands to reason that things shouldn't happen too fast. After all, although this tape has "arrived" now, since it is treated as office supplies-no one will buy such supplies until they run out-then Naturally, it will not be used immediately.

But it just so happened that it was Paul Allen himself. The computer tape he was using had a malfunction. In order to save time, he just stuffed the tape into the computer.

Then, as one of the top programmers in the world, he was completely shocked.

The contents of the tape were obviously encrypted, and only an execution program was presented to Allen, and after he opened it, he found that it was actually an operating system installation program!

"Yes, an operating system, Bill, see for yourself."

On Allen's computer screen, the familiar, pitch-black DOS interface full of white English letters seemed to be gone, and what he saw was an extremely beautiful color pattern interface. Relying on the intuitive feeling brought by the patterns, Gates instantly understood the functions of several of the icons at a glance.

"Program Manager, Calendar, Business Cards, Notepad, Terminal, Calculator, Clock, Control Panel, PIF Editor, Print Spooler, Clipboard, RAM Drive, WordPad, Paint, um... and Reversi game!?"

Not just a novel interface, but while using it, Gates has noticed that this "operating system" obviously requires the use of a mouse. Fortunately, the "Lisa" launched by Apple last year was equipped with a new type of mouse as standard, and Microsoft, as a research on competitors' products, of course bought some, otherwise, I am afraid that this "operating system" will not be used now!

"It's an operating system, yes Paul, it's an operating system!"

Just a moment of use, Gates immediately realized the power of this product. Just like the windows 1.0 they are researching, using GUI technology, that is, the interface of the graphical interface system, ordinary users can operate part-time on the computer to the extent that the name suggests.

An icon is a function, the name of the function is displayed under the icon, and the icon itself can more intuitively indicate its function. It can be said that unless the user is a brain-dead child with low IQ, anyone can use and master them as quickly as possible!

Fortunately, Gates is still a sensible guy. After being surprised for a moment, he immediately came back to his senses: "You just said that someone else developed... windows? Isn't that our own product name? What are you talking about? mean?"

Allen didn't speak, and first looked at his colleagues around him with weird expressions. Gates noticed everyone's weird expressions, as if he had realized something, and immediately operated the mouse unskillfully, and opened the system page.

Microsoft-Windows1.0-by-Alice-Wong

The snow-white characters were displayed on the blue background screen, Gates blinked fiercely, and his face twitched. Around him, everyone in the audience remained silent, waiting to see how the CEO of the company would react.

Gates adjusted his glasses: "Who is this Alice Wang? Have any of you heard of her?"

"I haven't heard of it, but the other party... left a letter for you in the system information, boss. Yes, Bill, signed it for you."

That's okay, Gates quickly found the so-called letter in the computer. At this moment, this new operating system once again demonstrated its superiority. Gates just tried to open Notepad. Sure enough, an icon in the shape of a letter appeared in the dialog box.

"A Letter to Bill Gates?"

Seeing the file name, Gates was quite dumbfounded, which reminded him of his middle school fun.

When Gates was still at Lakeside Middle School, the school already had opportunities for students to play with computers. But at that time, this was definitely a niche entertainment, and the computer room was not generally expensive. Even if Gates had a good family background, he didn't have that much money to spend on it.

Therefore, in order to play computer with Allen to the fullest, Gates had to do a hacking act himself, successfully intruded into the core part of the computer, and even modified the user payment list!

Of course, after the school found out, he was naturally fined...

Seeing the title of such a letter now, it is impossible not to remind him of himself when he was young.

Then he started to read.

"To the beer cap."

Seeing the first line, Gates was a little dazed. His real name is William Henry Gates, and Bill is a nickname, which many people know, so if someone calls him by another nickname, he is not unacceptable.

But he couldn't figure out why his name was changed to "Beer-Capsule" again. What was the basis for the nickname?

Just keep reading.

"When you read this letter, you must be shocked. Shouldn't Microsoft-Windows 1.0 be by-Bill-Gates? Why did it become by-Alice-Wong?

Of course, it's because these dozens of engineers at Microsoft are really stupid, inefficient, and incompetent. Otaku. No, few of you programmers have wives at all, so... ahem, well, the topic is getting too far, let's get down to business. "

In the first two natural paragraphs, Gates clearly discovered two words that he didn't quite understand. One Otaku seems to be Japanese, you can look it up later, but the other program-ape (program ape) is really inexplicable.

Ignore, continue to look down.

"In short, because you are too stupid and I am too smart, I made windows 1.0 for you. The one you see now is a trial version, and it will be automatically uninstalled after 24 hours of installation. I'm sure, it's up to you The level of these dozens of idiots certainly cannot obtain much source code in this little time.

So, Mr. Capsule, call my Royal-Hotline in Los Angeles. On behalf of all the employees of Cisco Systems, I am willing to hold a global strategic cooperation alliance negotiation meeting with Microsoft with cross-epoch significance. Now pick up the phone and call the hotline, and send a beautiful gift worth $999, it’s coming soon~”

At this point in the content of the short letter, Gates sat stupidly in front of the computer for a while, but couldn't say a word.

"The other party should not be joking."

In the end, it was Paul Allen who broke the calm: "But the person who left the message should be of a young age, otherwise he wouldn't use this way of speaking. I guess he should be no more than twenty-five years old, and he is very childish."

A programmer said: "Paul, don't you mean that there is a genius girl who is more powerful than all of us, and invented an operating system by herself?"

"Yes, yes, this is a computer operating system, and there are many functions included in it, it is not just a single program. If there is a young man who is so powerful...Are we really idiots?"

"No matter how genius is, there must be a limit, right? Our Microsoft is also a top computer company in the industry. The problem that more than 50 engineers have not solved for several months has been solved by one person. Isn't this a joke!?"

All of a sudden, the whole company was boiling, how could everyone accept this situation? And the programmer didn't know what the purpose was, but he actually put the name of Microsoft on the system. Is this an infringement?

"Cisco Systems...a name I've never heard of."

Finally, Gates spoke, and the moment he spoke, the audience was silent: "Ballmer, you can check the situation of this company for me immediately, if you can. As for everyone's opinions..."

With a smile on his lips, Gates adjusted his glasses again.

"... Don't forget, when I was thirteen years old, I was able to hack into the school's computer mainframe by relying on the completely self-taught Basic language. Computers have always been a field where geniuses come forth, as long as I have enough IQ, excellent scientific thinking, and superb mathematical calculation ability , let alone compare to you, even if you are stronger than me, what's wrong?"

"I remember the phone number, I will call, Alice Wang, right, I'm really looking forward to it."

Looking at the white font on the blue screen, Gates smiled confidently, and a handsome and evil spirit seemed to emerge from him.

In silence, Ballmer patted Allen on the shoulder.

"Look at what he said just now, our boss is really narcissistic."

Allen smacked his lips.

"You just know?"

The second update is coming, and then there will be a third update~
