Rebirth: Let's Talk About 1984

According to reports, this story begins at an entirely unscientific moment: Zhou Ziye, a designer who rose from creating counterfeit mobile phones, suddenly time-traveled back to the year 1984.

Chapter 725 Negotiations from Win

That means if they encounter someone flying a fighter jet, they'll do somersaults.

Well, if we encounter someone who's vomiting, no one in the entire cabin will escape; they'll all get sprayed.

When players are in poor form and there's no way to adjust their condition, the team doctor has a solution: if someone is vomiting, he gives them anti-nausea medication; if someone is dizzy, he gives them motion sickness medication.

Those in better condition received a bottle of glucose to replenish their energy.

I wasn't in good form this week, but I still managed a small win.

Wei Laisong was delighted, as winning the next four matches would greatly increase their chances of advancing.

Where there is hope, there is motivation.

Around 9 a.m. on Wednesday, Xing Baohua waited for Gates' private plane at Luzhong Airport.

The child set off from Da Mei at night, and after thirteen or fourteen hours, it was daytime here. They didn't need to adjust to the time difference; it was dawn as soon as they opened their eyes.

But Gates will need to adjust to the time difference if he wants to go back.

When the plane arrived, and Gates got off, Xing Baohua went up to give the bigwig a hug to welcome him.

Let's arrange for this person to stay at a city hotel for a short rest, and then have lunch together at noon.

The luncheon conversation was limited to casual chat among friends and did not touch on work-related issues.

At 2 p.m., in a meeting room, Gates' secretary and assistant, Xing Baohua, along with Xie Yingying and An Ranna, were present.

Anran was in charge of shorthand, while Xie Yingying handled miscellaneous tasks.

“Bill, we’re old friends, so we rarely have such formal discussions. Tell me, what do you want to collaborate on?” Xing Baohua asked bluntly.

"Xing, we're friends, that's why I'm here. The company has high hopes for the Mount Everest system, so we want to create a Microsoft-Mount Everest system, specifically customized for any product from DaMi!"

Gates put it rather subtly: out of friendship, we didn't trip you up, do anything malicious, or engage in a real market battle.

Xing Baohua smiled slightly at Gates, not rushing to reply, thinking, "Is it going to be a breakup so soon?"

Gates was referring to the company, but Microsoft isn't just owned by Gates; it's owned by other people as well, and the shareholders are quite diverse.

This shows that Gates' intention was not to target Xing Baohua's Mount Everest project, but rather that someone within Microsoft wanted to target it.

As the leader, Gates will naturally step in, since it's a battle for interests, and even the best of friends are useless in this situation.

"You've prepared several plans. For example, if the US doesn't agree to your acquisition of the Mount Everest system, you can launch your own project? Only the US has mobile platform chips in the world. Our system uses chips that are compatible with it, so it doesn't conflict with Microsoft?"

“Now we have it. The number of rice production equipment is doubling or even increasing exponentially every year. Each set of equipment is equipped with the Mount Everest system. Microsoft will be squeezed, its market share will decrease, and the interests of its shareholders will be harmed. That’s why I’m here to talk to you,” Gates said.

“Our high-end rice models have always been sold with the Windows system. Gates, I have a better relationship with Steve Jobs than you do, and he never even considered cooperating with me. Your coming here will harm my interests.”

“No, no. Only through cooperation can your interests be guaranteed,” Gates said loudly to Xing Baohua.

For the first time, he lost his composure and used his voice to suppress Xing Baohua's conversation.
