Chapter 1445 Microsoft is really about to lose its hold

Home Fighting Club is not completely without other effects. For example, Huang He got the news this time that the four major consortiums were preparing to unite to put pressure on him for Microsoft.

This was within Huang He's expectation, or it might have happened a little later than Huang He expected, because Microsoft's market was really eroded beyond recognition.

I won’t go into details about China. Microsoft’s market share has dropped below 10%. At the same time, 100% of the new computers launched by China are pre-installed with the Lingyun system. This means that Microsoft is basically finished in China.

Who knows that the largest market for Fantasy Computers is in China? Once the recall is launched, more than 70% of domestic computers will be directly replaced by Windows systems and Lingyun systems. Coupled with the strong support from the top, it is enough to keep 10% now.

Quite good.

But if we wait two or three years, these 10% of the market will probably disappear completely.

However, the Chinese market is not the biggest headache for Microsoft, because Microsoft was ready to lose the Chinese market as early as three years ago. What they really care about is the entire European market. As long as the European market does not collapse, then Microsoft will

It’s still an industry.

It’s just that the situation in Europe is very serious now. Although it is not as bad as China’s, the market has been completely pried open. Now Lingyun System’s market share has reached 32%, and Microsoft still has twice the advantage.

, but the problem is that now Microsoft is on the decline, Lingyun System is on the rise, and the market share may change at any time.

The original reason why this situation occurred in Europe was of course because of the recall of Fantasy computers, which allowed more than 40 million Lingyun system computers to enter the hands of European households.

However, under the suppression of Microsoft using various connections, European countries actually took action directly to terminate this recall incident.

But the layout of the Lingyun system has been formed, and then it will be a direct contest between the two sides.

After all, the Windows system has the absolute advantage at the beginning. After all, their various professional industrial software are very comprehensive. This is the biggest flaw of the Lingyun system.

However, the Lingyun system also has its own advantages, that is, it can interact with the terminal more efficiently. At the same time, it surpasses the Windows system in terms of cost performance and user experience. Therefore, in the competition between the two parties, the Windows system gradually falls behind.

More importantly, major industrial software companies around the world have successively launched their own versions of Lingyun, which is one of the reasons why Microsoft has fallen into despair.

Originally, Microsoft's idea was to strangle professional industrial software so that these guys would never be able to launch the Lingyun version. However, Boss Huang not only did not follow routines, but also never cared about money. When most of the staff in Jiangnan and these industries

After the software company is unable to reach a willingness to cooperate.

Jiangnan Group resorted to its usual trump card, that is, if you don’t develop it, I will develop it myself.

Jiangnan Group directly invested in the establishment of some small software development companies through various means, and then poached low-level programmers from industrial software developers at high prices.

Why are we poaching low-level programmers?

Of course it's because these programmers are not only cheap, but also truly master the company's core technology?

Anyone who has worked in a large company knows that no matter how high-level the company is to the middle-level, everyone has a very intimidating appearance. They can easily develop programs, create models, and break through any difficulties in the industry. It seems like this

All technological breakthroughs in this company are made by these middle and high-level people.

But except for a very small number of people, the other middle and high-level people are just useless people who are responsible for accepting tasks, then throwing these tasks to their programmers one by one, and then giving them an impossible deadline to complete them.

.

Most of the company's achievements are completed by these low-level programmers. The middle and senior management and the so-called technical elites just take the credit for themselves.

If you poach them into the company, other than PUA employees who can bring the so-called wolfish corporate culture of large international companies and come up with various ideas, they will have no other abilities.

On the contrary, it is the programmers with the cheapest prices who have truly mastered the core technology, and they are accurate and easy to dig.

As a result, the directors of these companies that did not agree to cooperate suddenly found that their bottom-level programmers were missing by 1/3 or even half.

They didn't panic at first. These were just some coding tools. As long as the middle and senior management who mastered the core technology were still there, they could quickly resume the development of the entire company.

The result is that the chests of these middle and high-level managers are booming, but the subsequent development of new products has almost come to a standstill, and sometimes even maintenance of old products cannot be done.

What's even more frightening is that a few months later, they suddenly discovered that they had a competitor, and the industrial software launched by this competitor not only completely overlapped with their own in functionality, but even surpassed it in functionality in some places.

itself.

What’s even more frightening is that these competitors’ industrial software can actually read their own unique program formats.

This feature is the most fatal for industrial software, because those large industrial software developers achieve monopoly through file formats.

Taking the most widely used CAD software as an example, the file formats of their products after the final design is completed are diverse, with more than 60 types.

There may be many display software on the Internet that can read these formats, but if you want to edit files in these formats, you can only use CAD software, because this format is exclusively developed by them, and many application technologies are mastered by one company.

Don't say anything in your hands.

What's more important is that the compilation methods of these formats have applied for patent protection. If other companies have the courage to develop software to compile these format files without authorization, they will not be able to lose money to this company.

Go bankrupt.

Therefore, almost all industrial software has its own exclusive development format. Once a certain industrial software forms a monopoly in a certain category, as long as you wait a year or two, the software format developed by almost all companies will be

An exclusive format from this industrial software company.

All other companies that cooperate with this company must have the same set of software, otherwise you will not be able to even open and read other people's formats.

Over time, the entire industry will form a tacit understanding that everyone only uses this development software, because only in this way can the produced files be read and used at the lowest cost. Otherwise, each company will have to purchase several industrial software at the same time.

Enterprise authorization failed?

Then something happened that made these real estate software developers feel numb. The software developed by their competitors was actually able to perfectly read their own exclusive formats. That is to say, the basis for the software to monopolize has disappeared, and there are no more users.

The expensive cost of replacing software.

And the last and most terrible thing is that all the software developed by these competitors is free.

Generally speaking, industrial software produced by a large factory is sold to individual users for about 200 to 300 yuan.

And if sold to an enterprise user, the licensing price is even more exaggerated. Because only enterprises have the need to use these industrial development software on a large scale, so if it is still calculated on an individual basis, then a large company may

Software licensing fees cost hundreds of thousands or even millions.

But now, a competing manufacturer has not only launched the same program, but can also read almost all file formats on the market. Finally, it is free and can be used by all individuals and businesses for free. Now it is too explosive.

Once these softwares are launched, everyone will start to crazily encroach on the market of those paid industrial softwares. Many companies will go bankrupt in less than 2 to 3 months.

These companies immediately became anxious and chose to report the case. After all, this kind of behavior is indeed illegal.

But the developers of these software are all small companies. When I asked them to follow the clues to check these small companies, I was surprised to find that most of these companies went bankrupt immediately after launching their own new software.

Since the infringing companies have gone bankrupt, the trial of infringement has become meaningless.

What's even more terrible is that although the company has closed down, the programs they developed are still active on the Internet, and a large number of users can directly download them for free through various channels.

Generally speaking, it is normal for a version of industrial software to be used for more than ten years at a time. Therefore, in the next ten years, we should not expect that a paid software will have a chance to beat a free software.

Previously, funds had made the directors of these companies bigger and bigger. Finally, they got an extremely secret message, that is, all of this was done by Jiangnan Group. If they wanted these things to disappear, they must

I will launch the Lingyun version of my own program, otherwise I will be crazy for the rest of my life.

So at this time, everyone knew that Jiangnan Group must be behind the scenes and these companies had no other option but to sign and accept their fate.

In the end, in just one year, Lingyun versions of various large-scale industrial software were launched one after another, and the Lingyun system officially entered its complete form.
