Gates quickly got to know the whole thing.

When receiving the express delivery this morning, as the nanny of 80% of the employees of the company and the "mother" of more than 50 programmers, Lu Bao routinely took on all trivial matters, including the dismantling of the express delivery.

But this time the express delivery is slightly different. It is not breakfast milk ordered on time, nor is it a bundle of toilet paper or office supplies, but a box of tape.

Anyone who knows computers knows that computer data is stored in tapes. Although four years ago, two former IBM employees founded a company called Seagate and developed a 5.25-inch 5MB hard drive, making it practical for this guy who was originally born with two refrigerators. But as of now, tapes are still the mainstream storage product.

So, after realizing that this was just a cassette, Lu Bao was surprised that it only had one box, rather than as a mass purchase of office supplies, he still routinely put it with other tapes.

Logically speaking, things won't happen too quickly. After all, although this cassette is "arrived" now, since it is treated as an office supply - no one's such supplies will be bought before they are sold out - it will naturally not be used immediately.

But unfortunately, it was Paul Allen himself who had some fault in the computer tape he was using. In order to save time, he stuffed the tape into the computer.

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

The contents in the tape were obviously encrypted, and only presented an executor to Allen. After opening it, he found that it was actually an operating system installer!

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

On Allen's computer screen, the familiar, dark, and white English letters DOS interface was gone. What you can see was an extremely beautiful color pattern interface. With the intuitive feeling brought by the pattern, Gates instantly understood the functions of several of the icons at a glance.

"Program manager, calendar, business card, notepad, terminal, calculator, clock, control panel, PIF editor, printing background processor, clipboard, RAM driver, writing board, drawing, um...and black and white chess game!?"

Not only is it a novel interface, but while using it, Gates has noticed that this "operating system" obviously requires the use of a mouse. Thanks to the fact that the "Lisa" launched by Apple last year comes with a new mouse standard. Microsoft, as a research on competitor products, has certainly purchased some, otherwise, I am afraid that this "operating system" will not be used now!

"This is an operating system, yes Paul, this is indeed an operating system!"

With just a momentary use, Gates immediately realized the power of this product. Just like the Windows 1.0 they are studying, using GUI technology, that is, the interface of the graphical interface system, ordinary users' part-time operation of computers has reached the point of viewing the meaning.

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

Fortunately, Gates was still a rational guy. After being surprised in an instant, he immediately came to his senses: "You just said that someone else has developed...windows? Isn't that our own product name? What do you mean?"

Allen didn't say anything, first looked at his colleagues around him with a weird expression. Gates noticed everyone's strange expressions and seemed to have realized something. He immediately operated the mouse skillfully 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 skin began to twitch. Around him, everyone in the audience remained silent, watching what the company's CEO would react.

Gates helped his glasses: "Who is this Alice-Wang? Who have you heard of her?"

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

That's all. Gates quickly found the so-called letter in his computer. At this moment, this new operating system once again showed its superiority. Gates just tried to open the notepad. Sure enough, an icon like a letter appeared in the dialog box.

"A Letter to Bill Gates?"

When Gates saw the file name, he felt quite amused and laughed, which made him recall interesting stories from his middle school years.

When Gates was still in Hubin Middle School, the school had the opportunity to give students the opportunity to play computers. However, at that time, this was definitely a niche entertainment activity, and the computer fee pages in the computer room were not usually expensive. Even if Gates' family background was good, he didn't spend so much money on this.

Therefore, in order to play computers with Allen, Gates had to do a hacking act personally, successfully hacking into the core part of the computer, and changed the user payment list!

Of course, when the school discovered it, he was naturally fined...

Now that I see the title of such a letter, I really can't help but think of myself when I was young.

Then, he began to read.

“To the beer lid.”

When Gates saw the first line, he was a little confused. His real name was William Henry Gates, and Bill was the nickname. Many people know this, so if someone calls him with a nickname, he would not be unacceptable.

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

Let's continue watching.

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

Of course, that's because these dozens of engineers at Microsoft are so stupid, too poor in efficiency, and too low in ability. They are simply the Otaku who just gets a salary and doesn't work, just waiting for six o'clock to come home to hold his wife. No, there are not many of you programmers who have wives at all, so... ahem, okay, the topic is too far-reaching, let's get back to the point."

In these first two paragraphs, Gates clearly discovered two words that he didn't understand very well. One Otaku seems to be in Japanese and can be checked back, but the other program-ape is really inexplicable.

Ignore, continue to look down.

"Anyway, because you are too stupid and I am too smart, I have made Windows 1.0 for you. The one you see now is a trial version, which will be automatically uninstalled after 24 hours of installation. I am sure that with the level of dozens of fools, you will definitely not be able to obtain much source code at this time.

So, Mr. Capsule, hurry up and call my Royal Hotline in Los Angeles. On behalf of all employees of Cisco Systems, I am willing to hold a cross-generational, global strategic cooperation alliance negotiation meeting with Microsoft. Now pick up the phone and call the hotline and send exquisite gifts worth $999, so fast~”

When the short letter content reached this position, Gates sat foolishly in front of the computer. After a while, he couldn't say a word.

"The other party shouldn't be a joke."

Finally, Paul Allen broke the peace: "But the person who left the message should not be of a big grade, otherwise I would probably not be over twenty-five years old and very childish."

A programmer said, "Paul, why don't you mean that there is a talented girl who is better than all of us, and one person has invented an operating system?"

"Yes, yes, this is a computer operating system, and it already comes with many functions, but it's not just a single program. If there is really a young man as powerful...are we really idiots?"

"No matter how talented we are, we have to have a limit, right? Microsoft is still a top computer company in the industry. More than 50 engineers have not solved the problem for several months, but they were solved by one person. Isn't this a joke!?"

For a moment, the whole company was in a state of excitement, and how could everyone accept this situation? And the programmer didn't know what the purpose was, but he actually called the system Microsoft. Is this considered infringement?

"Cisco Systems...a name I haven't heard of."

Finally, Gates spoke. The moment he spoke, the audience suddenly became quiet: "Balmer, check the situation of this company immediately, if possible. As for everyone's opinions..."

A smile hung up the corner of his mouth, and Gates lowered his glasses again.

"...Don't forget, when I was thirteen, I could invade the school computer host with a completely self-taught Basic language. Computers have always been a field of genius. As long as IQ is enough, I have excellent science thinking, and excellent mathematical computing skills, let alone you, even if I am better than me, what's wrong with me?"

"I remember the phone number and I will call it. Alice-Wang, right? I really look forward to it."

Looking at the white font on the blue screen, Gates smiled confidently, and a handsome 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 only know?"
