Silicon Valley

This time, the "Matrix" department has recruited more than 20 hackers, which is neither too much nor too little. If it wasn't for Henry's high salary and the recognition of 360 McAfee's technology, it would be even more difficult to recruit hackers to join! However, Henry believes that once the "Matrix" grows and becomes a holy land that countless hackers yearn for, it will be much easier to recruit new members at that time! ! !

Anyone who can be called a hacker must be a technical expert. What kind of spark will a group of technical experts stay together, this is something worth looking forward to!

The hackers really lived up to their expectations, and the technology is excellent. After joining the 360 ​​Free Company, within a week, they improved the antivirus engine, optimized the cloud antivirus technology, and increased the antivirus ability by 20% all at once. Henry suddenly felt that investing in nothing is more cost-effective than investing in talents! ! ! No wonder, what is the most expensive in the 21st century? Talent! ! ! !

Day by day, other antivirus companies saw that the paid antivirus software could no longer survive, and they "changed their flags" and announced that their own antivirus software was also free! ! !

If it's not free, no one will use the antivirus software; if it's free, you can share some soup and water, occupying a small part of the market!

Many anti-virus companies were forced to help, and they rushed the ducks to the shelves, free of charge! However, if you want to change the antivirus software to "Cloud Scanning and Killing", and want to change it to a fool-like "one-click antivirus", it cannot be done in a while. Its market share is decreasing day by day, and is basically taken away by 360 McAfee.

Other antivirus companies hurriedly worked overtime to modify the software, and it was time to improve. 360 McAfee has come up with a new trick. After booting, the pop-up window shows the boot time, and it also made a ranking list. After finishing, it will prompt "one-click acceleration", which can not only speed up the booting speed, but also make your computer not stuck and run more smoothly! ! !

This trick is just right in the mind of the user, I like it very much!

Computer booting slowly? Then "one-click acceleration"!

Computer stuck? Then "one-click acceleration"!

Just having fun! ! !

Seeing this, other antivirus companies almost felt like they wanted to vomit blood. It's free for me, but it can't stop 360 McAfee's expansion! ! ! Among them, many small antivirus companies are almost facing bankruptcy crisis!

At this time, 360 McAfee began to show its fangs, trying to swallow these companies one by one!

Talent, technology, and virus database are all in the bag! ! !

Just when 360 McAfee aggressively acquired antivirus companies, a reporter from Time Magazine joked: "The current antivirus companies are just fish on the chopping block, waiting for their owners to slaughter..."

The antivirus market was disrupted by Henry. Not only did the cloud check and kill appear many years earlier, but the free model also advanced ahead of schedule, and almost other antivirus companies were unable to fight back.

Just imagine, a company with the best antivirus technology, but it is free again. How do you tell other companies to compete?

Henry looked at the rapid increase in the downloads of 360 McAfee Security Guard, which is exactly "the spring breeze is so proud, I can see all the Chang'an flowers in one day", and I feel very comfortable! At this time, a bad news suddenly came, Microsoft held a press conference yesterday to release the first IE browser, and wanted to compete with Netscape browser!

With its powerful software technology, Microsoft has optimized the IE browser kernel to make it respond quickly, even better than the Netscape browser!

At the time of its release, Microsoft declared, "IE is the fastest browser in the world!!!"

In order to highlight the effect, Netscape browsers were compared to see which browser responds faster. Naturally, at the press conference, the IE browser slapped the "face" of the Netscape browser!

"Microsoft actually uses the Netscape browser to show its superiority? What the hell, let's see how I deal with you!!!" Henry said coldly.

Not long after the release of the IE browser, Microsoft started the Windows system update mechanism. If the user clicks the update button, the IE browser will be downloaded to the user's desktop. In this way, a large number of Users, no doubt, this is simply playing, rogue, hooligan! ! !

For this kind of hooliganism, 360 McAfee security guards are naturally responsible and must be stopped! ! !

So, Henry instructed Eugene Kaspersky: "Microsoft forces users to install the IE browser. In this regard, 360 McAfee, as a responsible antivirus company, naturally wants to stop this kind of rogue behavior. You immediately ask the technical team to stop it. Modify the program to prevent this kind of behavior from Microsoft. However, we can't be too domineering, so as to leave a reputation as a hooligan to the outside world... We are a fair and fair company! So, if you are like this, get a pop-up window to add Prompt, just say 'there is unfamiliar software forcibly downloaded, beware of poison, please confirm the safety before downloading'!"

Eugene Kaspersky was stunned. How can users confirm whether the strange software is poisonous? ? ? I am afraid that most people will never dare to download after listening to this prompt...

In doing so, it will not fall into place, but also can play a role in blocking IE downloads!

Eugene Kaspersky immediately admired the chairman Henry Williams.

"Chairman, I know what to do!"

"Well, that's good, but you have to hurry up and try to fix it as soon as possible!!!"

"Yes!"

After Eugene Kaspersky left, Henry pondered.

Microsoft is not easy to deal with. With Netscape browser alone, it may be difficult to fight unilaterally. There must be gimmicks, and users must have a sense of dependence on Netscape browser. Only then can we win the browser battle!

At present, the core competitiveness of browsers has two points, fast response and full functions.

The functions of IE browser are not as complete as that of Netscape browser, but the response is fast. In this regard, the popularity is probably higher than the Netscape browser! ! !

Therefore, Henry is ready to propose a new concept, the secure browser, and thus launch the 360 ​​Netscape browser!

As a result, 360 McAfee must be more closely integrated with Netscape.

So, Henry instructed his men to register a company called "360 Holding Group", planning to incorporate 360 ​​McAfee and Netscape Browser into its subsidiary. Create a corporate brand name! ! !

Since Henry has absolute control over both companies, it is not too difficult to control the two companies and merge them into one group company!

A week later, Henry issued an invitation to reporters from major media across the United States through 360 McAfee, asking them to come to the press conference! As for the 360 ​​Holding Group, it will be announced at the press conference!

At the press conference, Henry Williams made his debut as chairman of 360 McAfee! ! !

At this time, the reporters below were shocked to see that the chairman of 360 McAfee was actually Henry Williams! ! ! They never imagined that the backstage of 360 McAfee is actually the billionaire Henry Williams! ! ! !

It's no wonder that 360 McAfee is so "ruthless" that other anti-virus companies it kills are losing ground; it's no wonder that 360 McAfee is so rich, throwing money everywhere and making strong acquisitions! ! !

It turns out that there is only one reason, that is, the backstage is hard! ! ! !

In addition to the illusory Emperor William the Great, who can have hundreds of billions of wealth? ! ! !

Other anti-virus companies are not wronged! The reporters held a moment of silence for other antivirus companies...

Breaking news, absolutely breaking news! ! !

clack clack...

For a time, the reporter, like a wolf like a tiger, picked up the camera and moved forward, frantically pressing the shutter! ! !

Henry smiled and said: "Ladies and gentlemen, hello everyone, I am Henry Williams, chairman of 360 McAfee. Today's press conference is to announce one thing! 360 McAfee and the Internet Jing company will be merged into the 360 ​​holding group company, among which, 360 holding group company wholly holds 360 McAfee, holding 75% of the absolute control of Netscape company! Global Online, as the parent company of the original Netscape company, will own 35% of 360 Holding Group Company!!!! Through this strategic merger, 360 McAfee and Netscape are mutually beneficial and intimate, and can strengthen and consolidate their respective positions!!”

"Recently, Netscape browser is about to launch the latest version of the browser. As computer viruses become more and more serious, users urgently need a browser that can surf the Internet safely! Therefore, we will combine Netscape browser and 360 McAfee's antivirus. technology to launch a new secure and reliable 360 ​​Netscape browser!!!"

"Choosing the 360 ​​Netscape browser means choosing security!"

"This is the end of the speech, thank you all!!!" After speaking, Henry bent over and gave a very gentlemanly salute to everyone in the audience!

The reporters were inexplicably excited. Today, they really didn't come for nothing. Apart from seeing Henry Williams, they also heard such unexpected news!

First, the establishment of 360 Holding Group! ! !

Second, Netscape Browser launched a brand-new browser that focuses on security, 360 Netscape Browser! ! !

...

The next day, the headlines in the national newspapers were all about Henry Williams and 360 Holdings!

"The establishment of 360 Holdings Group, the first thing is to launch the 360 ​​Netscape browser, obviously pointing to Microsoft's IE browser, the browser war is about to start!!!"

"The biggest shareholder behind the scenes of 360 Holding Group - the billionaire Henry Williams!!!"

"..."

When I heard that Henry Williams was behind the 360 ​​Holding Group, the entire Microsoft company panicked and hurriedly held an emergency meeting to discuss how to deal with it.

Bill Gates sat in his seat, frowning deeply, "What do you think? How do you fight this browser war?"

Paul Allen, one of the co-founders of Microsoft, said: "360 Group Holding Company focuses on secure browsers, but we are fast browsers. For users, security is probably more important!!! In addition, 360 Group Holding Company Behind him is Henry Williams, and with his money and influence, it's really hard to deal with!!!"

"No matter what! This time, we must win! MSN has lost to ICQ, and IE browser must not lose to 360 Netscape browser!!!" Bill Gates said solemnly, "IE browser has a great influence on our layout of the Internet. Huge effect!!!"

"Well, yes." Paul Allen nodded and said immediately, "At present, our biggest advantage is that we have an operating system! Through system updates, we now have hundreds of thousands of IE browser users!!! Take advantage of this advantage, and in the future, our IE browser will dominate!!!"

After Paul Allen finished speaking, a strong confidence appeared on his face.

Bill Gates softened his face and agreed: "Yes, Paul is right, we can make good use of this advantage and we will definitely win. Binding is king. In the future, IE browser and MSN will be tied to our operating system. !!! As long as our OS reigns supreme, some others are fearless!!!”

At this time, outside the office, an employee hurried in.

"What's the matter?!!" Bill Gates said displeased.

"Chairman, 360 McAfee security guards are blocking our IE browser downloads!!!!"

"What!!! Explain in detail what's going on!!" Bill Gates' voice suddenly increased an octave.

"It's like this, the user clicks the system update, but then the 360 ​​McAfee security guard pops up a prompt 'There is unfamiliar software forcibly downloaded, beware of poison, please confirm the safety before downloading?' After seeing this prompt, the user immediately canceled Download the IE browser!!!"

When Bill Gates heard this, he was so angry that he slapped the table! ! !

"360 holding company is too deceiving!!!!"

With a gloomy face, Bill Gates said loudly: "Immediately launch a public relations campaign and tell netizens that it's not virus software, but IE browser!!! In addition, immediately sued 360 Holding Group, saying that they took advantage of their monopoly to suppress competition. opponent!!!"

"Yes!!!"

Shortly thereafter, 360 Holding Group received a subpoena from the court. Henry looked, what? Actually suing 360 Holding Group to engage in monopoly and suppress competitors?

Nima, are you embarrassed to say that 360 Holding Group has a monopoly? Who is the real monopoly? ! ! ! (There are a lot of words, please support, please support!!!)
