The Goddess Shines on America

Alice has been estimating the time, and she knows that she should receive a call from Albuquerque soon. So, even though it's Wednesday, she's staying home in her bedroom instead of obediently going to school.

Recalling the memories of her previous life, Alice actually discovered a historical turning point, that is, Microsoft did not move to Cremond, Washington in 1978, but stayed in New Mexico until now.

Of course, this matter itself is indifferent, what does it matter to me where it is at the moment? However, now that the small inflection point has appeared, will there be some huge changes in history?

Alice dare not deny that this situation will not happen, so since she finally wants to be active now, and Microsoft has been promoting their operating system for two months, it is reasonable to develop Windows 1.0 instead of Gates in the matter.

Very simple one thing.

Learn to program, learn the basics of computers, and write code.

Since there is no comparison object of the same level, Alice does not know whether other people can do what she can do if their brains are also developed to 20%. Anyway, Alice felt that it was too easy for her to develop windows 1.0 by herself.

"Alice? Alice!"

Just when Alice was in a daze in the bedroom, Sophie shouted from downstairs: "Pick up the phone, there is a Mr. Gates looking for you!"

"coming!"

Been waiting for it! Hearing that the call finally came, Alice rushed down the stairs quickly. Sophie was standing at the top of the stairs holding the phone, looking at her with bright eyes: "Alice, my baby, what earth-shattering thing have you done again? How did you recruit Bill Gates from Microsoft?"

Of course Sophie knew who Bill Gates was. After all, the dozen or so copies of "Popular Electronics" accumulated in Alice's bedroom were not decorations, they were almost must-read publications for the whole family. Therefore, when she received a call and learned that Gates, who claimed to be the CEO of Microsoft, wanted to contact her daughter, Sophie was really surprised and somewhat understandable.

Yes, it is understandable, after all, her daughter is named Alice, who has brought her countless surprises since she was a child.

"Oh, I'll explain this to you later, mom, give me the phone first!"

Alice quickly answered the phone, but just when she was about to speak excitedly, her complexion changed immediately, her face was serious, and she even coughed deliberately.

So, under Sophie's happy gaze, after completely concealing her excitement, Alice said to the phone solemnly: "Hi, I'm Alice-Wang."

On the other side of the phone, Gates' suspended heart finally fell, but it suddenly hung high again.

"Bill?"

In the Microsoft building, in the CEO's office, Paul Allen was standing next to Gates, and saw that his expression was wrong: "Have you contacted the other party?"

Gates made a sharp shh gesture.

"Hello, Ms., I am the CEO of Microsoft Corporation, Bill Gates. This morning, our company received a very magical package. Is it from you?"

The hanging heart fell because when Gates heard the person who answered the phone claiming to be, he was finally sure that there was a real person. He suddenly hung up again because he realized at the same time that the "lady" who called seemed to be young.

"Ah~ hello, Mr.Capsule, how do you use the windows I invented by myself? Doesn't it feel very cool and wonderful, and it will definitely blow up your current unformed version of Shijiejie?"

The voice of a little girl kept rushing into his ears. When the voice fell, Gates rubbed his temples vigorously, and rationally chose not to question the other party's age: "Then Miss Wang, you completed this operating system. Is it? May I ask that you gave it to us, is it really to seek business cooperation?"

Long before the call was hung up, Gates had basically confirmed the purpose of the other party. After all, this is a period of great development of the computer industry. Many companies and individuals are studying computer technology, but not everyone has the ability to use technology in practice, and cooperation is a matter of course.

Not to mention this year, in the nine years since Microsoft was established, Gates has recruited many talents to join him by various means, and most of them entered the company with ready-made technologies. Except for Ballmer, who is only a sales manager, the rest are all excellent engineers and hold technical executive positions.

Therefore, Alice's behavior itself was not beyond her expectations, but her "certificate of nomination" was really amazing.

And at the end, she also stated in the article that she wanted to cooperate with Microsoft in the name of "Cisco Systems", not to prove her technology with this product, so as to join the company.

"That's right, it was done by me. We'll talk about cooperation after we meet. I'll collect user experience data first. Hey, Mr. Bottle Cap, how do you use my system? How many stars do you want?"

Gates rubbed his temples again, he already understood that the person answering the phone must be just a little girl.

Beside him, Allen was frowning and looking at his good buddy. After all, Gates looks very bad now, with a typical appearance of having a headache, chest tightness, shortness of breath and dying at any time, which is too worrying.

"It is indeed very good, a very advanced graphical user interface, more rigorous than Apple's current one. Ms. Wang, the matter is very important, I want to confirm again, is this system really developed by you? It is you alone Was it developed by humans?"

On the other side of the phone, Sophie basically understood what was going on, silently made a face at Alice, and quietly left the corridor.

"It's me, it's me, it's me, and it's a person."

Alice leaned her back against the wall and hung up the phone comfortably. Of course she understood why Gates asked this question twice in a row. Although her cup was a little ahead of schedule, it was of course impossible for her voice to reach menopause.

"I know you're all intimidated, that's okay, I just happen to be in a few days... have a long break, next Saturday, I'll go to Albuquerque in person next Saturday, and we'll meet then Let's talk again, how about it?"

Gates looked at the calendar, and it will take a full ten days from today to next Saturday, which is directly equivalent to July. Now the whole company, who is not disturbed by the sudden appearance of the operating system, wait another ten days, God knows how much work will be delayed!

"Miss Wang, are you sure it's next Saturday? Can it be changed to now? Or this Saturday? Can you leave your address? If it's not convenient for you to come to Albuquerque immediately, I can go to Los Angeles. "

"Oh, that's not okay. I'm not free until Friday, and then I won't be busy with any work this Saturday. Let's wait until next Saturday. Mr. Gates, you don't have to rush, I have this job." The tape has not been mailed to the second computer company, anyway, if you want to develop it yourself, you may not be able to produce results by the end of the year, right? What is a week?"

With Alice's words, Gates calmed down a little. Indeed, he was too anxious. After all, as early as the end of last year when it was publicized, Microsoft did not have any operating system products. Although they said they would launch products this spring, they knew in their hearts that they might not be able to complete them by the end of the year. . Although it is June now, he has foreseen that the Chinese New Year will be skipped.

If this Ms. Wang really intends to cooperate with Microsoft with her product, waiting for a week is really nothing.

But Gates still refused to give up. After all, he wanted to meet this magical Alice too much: "Is this weekend too bad? Miss Wang, this is a statutory holiday. Can you spare an hour?"

Gates knew that he had committed a big taboo. This kind of anxious attitude was not good for business negotiations, but he really couldn't help it!

"Well……"

Alice stood against the corner of the corridor and touched her nose: "But I have an appointment to go to New York with my good sister this weekend. The most taboo thing to be a human being is to break your promise, Mr. Gates, right?"

Gates went dumb for a moment.

Go on a trip with your good sisters? ?

I called myself to ask for cooperation, and the other party actually came up with such an excuse to say that I didn't have time? ?

"But, but Miss Wang..."

"Oh, don't worry!"

On the other side of the phone, Alice waved her face and hands, her face was full of impatience, but if someone looked closely, she would find that her blue eyes were full of mischief.

"I've said it all. I only gave you the Microsoft family this tape. Without my help, you might not be able to research something by the end of the year. What's the point of waiting a week or two? Man, in the face of a lady's request Be patient, Mr. Gates."

After speaking, Alice hung up the phone by herself.

Gates was unable to recover from the sudden beeping sound in his ears for a long time.

He was completely choked.

I have seen willful people, and I am even more willful, but today this seemingly young girl really opened his eyes.

However, Gates also had to admit that what the other party said was very reasonable. According to Microsoft's current progress, the possibility of compiling Windows 1.0 by the end of the year is not even 40%. Waiting an extra two weeks is really nothing from the perspective of enterprise development.

But he is really anxious!

"Paul, we still have a week. Although the other party said this is just a trial version, let the technical team hurry up and study it. I will go to Los Angeles to meet with the other party next Saturday. The more profitable, hurry up!"

After speaking, before Allen could take three steps, he rushed out of the office first.
