Chapter 40 – Finally Rich (1/2)
“Oh! I understand!” Xu Zhongbang said disappointedly, “Mr. Liu, please give me half an hour, I have to immediately call the main office! This is too unbelievable!”
“Okay,” My expression still didn’t change.
Xu Zhongbang ran out to make a call, I wasn’t interested in the contents, since the thing was in my hands, and thus I had the initiative, the price of this was entirely my decision.
After almost an hour, Xu Zhongbang finally came, when he entered the room he saw that I was playing the Linkup that came with Shuguang 95 in boredom. It was one of the most popular desktop games in offices in the future, others games that were added alongside it were Bejeweled and Puzzle Bobble etc.
Xu Zhongbang looked at it then exclaimed, “Who added this game? This is amazing! It’s far more interesting than our desktop games.”
Hehe, of course it is more interesting, if you could look within the computers of the office workers, you would know the value of these games. It’s just that I added them into my Shuguang 95 ahead of time.
“I contacted the main office, name a price, Mr. Liu!” Xu Zhongbang clearly knew the value of this operating system, when he talked communicated with the main office, their surprise was no less than his, and ordered him to buy this operating system no matter the cost, if it doesn’t work out, then not cooperating would be fine, but don’t ever turn the other party into a competitor. Microsoft’s CEO of the main office Bill Gates immediately booked a planet ticket, and was expected to arrive the next morning at Songjiang international Airport. Xu Zhongbang understood how big his responsibilities were, if this situation turned bad, then he couldn’t afford to pay the cost. Therefore he didn’t say any extra, and just frankly begun to ask about the price.
“How much do you think it’s worth?” I didn’t answer his question, and asked him back.
“Ah?” Xu Zhongbang momentarily blanked, he didn’t think I would ask this. He had originally thought that I would name my ideal price, even if I named an absurd price, as long as there was a price, there was no fear of the business being not done.
“Does Mr. Xu think this operating system have a price?” I continued to through out smoke bombs.
“Have a price? What do you mean? Unless Mr. Liu doesn’t want to sell it?” Xu Zhongbang became even more confused after hearing that.
“Yes! I can’t sell the operating system, but we can cooperate in another way!” I said in an indisputable tone.
Hearing I say that we can cooperate, Xu Zhongbang’s originally swirling heart immediately calmed down again. If the other person isn’t selling, then he can’t force it. Furthermore, as long as they can cooperate, his own mission could also be considered done.
“How does Mr. Liu want to cooperate?” Xu Zhongbang asked.
“I fear that Mr. Xu will not be able to make the decision on my request…” I really couldn’t bare to name something absurd towards my old boss.
“How about this, our CEO Bill Gates is already on the way to Huaxia, if Mr. Liu has any special requests, then you can speak to him directly.”
“Okay. Call me after he arrives,” I said. Then I took out over a hundred 3.5 inch floppy disks and gave it to Xu Zhongbang. “This was the installation disk for Shuguang 95, you can let your CEO have a look.”
Xu Zhongbang immediately took it over, he just wanted to talk about this issue with me, but he also knew that these things would be confidential before the cooperation is set, and so he didn’t say anything.
I was familiar with Xu Zhongbang’s personality, and knew that he wouldn’t do anything like stealing other people’s results (it seems like I’m doing so!), what’s more is that everything I wrote was protected, I don’t believe that they would be able to decode it with the current technology.
