The richest man starts with a blind box

Chapter 1422 Not Very Good at Playing

As the final list of 1000 people was finalized, the rest of the children were also sent back to their parents, and these children who were able to persist until the end each had an additional 1 yuan bonus in their hands, which was considered rewarding. To a relatively good end.

After that, they will return to the normal learning route. After all, this world still depends on learning to fight for a future, and sports are only a path that a small number of people can take.

During these days when Boss Huang was tossing about football, most of 2016 passed quietly, and almost no one mentioned the LJ Gate incident that shocked the world before.

As a whistleblower, Snowden did not become the hero he imagined.

He has no delusions that he can return to the United States and become a hero praised by everyone. He knows that he will never be able to go back.

But he originally thought that he could at least be a hero in the media reports, but in the Western world, those media finally portrayed him as a traitor who betrayed his country, sold state secrets to his enemies, and finally completely surrendered to the enemy .

However, this does not seem to be wrong, because Snowden's final outcome may be to spend the second half of his life in Russia.

However, it cannot be said that Snowden's influence has not ended at all. At least the computer system market with the Windows system as the core has collapsed.

Although under the efforts of Microsoft, the United States has hardly imposed any punishment on Microsoft, and the citizens of the United States have suffered serious losses due to Microsoft's problems, and proposed a total of 3.2 trillion US dollars in huge compensation.

However, after the trial by the Supreme Court, it was determined that Microsoft had only a small part of the responsibility in this incident.

The logic of the court is very simple, that is, these extortion incidents were done by those hackers, so the main responsibility should also be on the hackers, not on Microsoft.

Microsoft's products do have defects, but this defect is not the root cause of the loss. These companies should seek compensation from the hackers who blackmailed them, whether to seek Microsoft as a service provider.

In the end, the Supreme Court determined that Microsoft was responsible for less than 5.62% of the entire incident. Although it is not known how the liability ratio to two decimal places was calculated, the court judged it that way.

As for the huge compensation of 3.2 trillion US dollars in total, it was also reduced by the court to 3 billion US dollars, and Microsoft only needs to compensate 200% of it, with a total of about 5.62 billion US dollars.

This sounds like a very large number, but it is still a drop in the bucket for Microsoft after all.

And those companies that collectively sue Microsoft can only accept this result. After all, Microsoft has told them very clearly that this is the upper limit of compensation that Microsoft can accept. If they continue to appeal, then Microsoft will adopt a delaying strategy. The entire appeal period dragged on to more than three years, and there is no guarantee that the appeal will turn out better.

So after thinking twice, these companies chose to get the money as soon as possible, so Microsoft only spent 180 billion US dollars to solve this huge crisis.

But the amazing thing is that Microsoft has not released a patch that can turn off the background control until now. I don't know whether Microsoft's research and development capabilities have completely declined to this point, or they have no intention of making this patch at all.

Of course, Microsoft is not completely ignoring this problem, they finally gave a patch.And the effect of this patch is to prevent guys without permission passwords from using this backdoor.

To give a simple example, it's like when Microsoft built a house for your home, it secretly left a back door that you can't see, and the back door has not been locked.

After this back door is exposed, as long as it is a thief, it can use this back door to sneak into your house.

As the owner's request, it is natural to directly remove the back door and replace it with a solid wall.

But Microsoft said that it can't do it, so it can only add a lock to the back door to lock the back door to prevent thieves from entering.

This solution sounds okay, but the problem is that the key to the lock is not in the hands of the homeowner, but in the hands of Microsoft.If Microsoft himself is willing, he can still enter your home at any time and show your privacy.

Such an outrageous patch naturally cannot satisfy most users.

But the people of the United States have no choice, because their relevant units have approved this patch, and they said that they will not care about this matter anymore. If you are always worried about the back door, then just change the operating system.

Americans are like this, and Europeans are not much better. Although the relevant departments of the European Union have also imposed huge fines on Microsoft, they also did not mention this backdoor.

Although the European netizens made a fuss for a while, except for a small number of people who completely replaced their computer systems with Linux, others still had to choose Microsoft's system.

But after all, it is impossible for Microsoft to make all countries so obedient.

As a result, relevant regulations were quickly introduced, not only for institutions, but also forbidding any companies that operate big data to use Microsoft systems. If other private organizations want to use Microsoft systems, they must build a complete set that can be synchronized The backup storage system for data storage, in addition to ensuring that even if the system is attacked, it can resume work immediately.

Otherwise, these private enterprises will not be able to successfully obtain network operating licenses.

This rule has been announced, which basically means that the Microsoft system will completely withdraw from the market. Although Microsoft has expressed serious protests against this, saying that this is discrimination against Microsoft.

But when he was asked to come up with a patch that could truly and completely remove the backdoor, Microsoft kept silent, so in the end they didn't bother him at all, and the order continued to be issued.

The direct result is the direct disintegration of the most important business segment of Fantasy Computer.

Previously, in order to achieve the goal of controlling the market, Fantasy Computer tried every means to achieve the lowest supply price in the market from various computer hardware and software suppliers, so that it could squeeze other complete machine manufacturers from other aspects. Spaces operated by other competitors.

But this set of methods is completely unworkable in the face of Jiangnan Group.

After the Windows system was banned, the only choice for the whole of China was naturally the Lingyun system newly launched by Jiangnan Group.

In this regard, Jiangnan Group naturally resorted to its old tactics of being able to dominate the entire terminal platform, that is, except for the chip production itself, all other products are only responsible for technology authorization, and other markets do not participate at all. Leave it to the companies to compete on their own.

But there is only one thing, that is, these companies must join the China High-Tech Electronics Industry Development Alliance, and their products must also be sold within the framework of the alliance. Once any company is found to be selling outside the framework of the alliance, it will be frozen immediately. All technical licenses.

The sales rules within the framework of the alliance are price transparency, and at the same time, purchases and shipments must be carried out through the alliance platform.

Because the alliance itself does not take a cut from the purchase and shipment, how much it sells is the company's own business. The alliance just uses this method to control the market flow and regulate market prices.

Therefore, companies in the alliance are more welcome to this, so this will be restricted by the alliance's pricing, but it will also prevent the price plunge caused by vicious competition. This is undoubtedly a boon for many small enterprises.

But this is not so good for Fantasy Computer. The previous purchase cost advantage of Fantasy Computer no longer exists because of the existence of the alliance.

On the other hand, because all computers use a brand-new 5-ary computer system, the technical patents accumulated by Fantasy Computer in the assembly of many devices are all meaningless, which makes Fantasy Computer and many other emerging complete machine brands stand on the same signal line.

Then the fantasy computer found that he was not very good at playing.

Originally, Fantasia Computer still thought that it still had an advantage, because whether it was government procurement or corporate procurement, it actually valued more on personal connections.

This is also the reason why Yang Yuan, the boss of Fantasia Computer, would rather bear his disgust to buy goods at a high price from Jiangnan Group, but also pay the order within the stipulated time, that is, in order not to destroy the relationship he has established in the early stage.

However, as all Lingyun system-related purchases are placed in the alliance framework, and the prices of all products are absolutely transparent and stable, the purchase price of all parts and components of a computer can be found directly on the Internet. .

In recent years, with the continuous deepening of reforms in China, basically all purchases are carried out through bidding, and the relevant bidding documents must be publicized. If the purchase price is found to be too different, it will be subject to a lawsuit .

In the era of the Windows system before, because fantasy computers can get a lot of parts at a relatively low price, even if it is a bidding, they still have a huge profit margin compared with other companies, and they can naturally give more rebates, so they don't Don't be afraid of the bidding system.

However, in this era of complete transparency, many companies and institutions directly compare their bidding with their own needs, and then fluctuate by about 10-20% of the total price of public parts procurement, which is basically nailed down. It's good or bad, because this is the price directly set by the above, no matter how capable the people below are, they dare not violate this rigid price regulation.

What is even more deadly is that at this time, a large number of new complete machine companies have entered the game, such as Xiaomi, VIVO and other established terminal companies have entered the game one after another. Many people in other industries have also seen this wave of new trends. Straight into the game.

Anyway, the threshold for producing mainframes is ridiculously low now. Don’t set the configuration for your own mainframe, and then purchase directly on the alliance’s official website platform. You only need to be responsible for a complete machine assembly and after-sales service. There is almost no Technical threshold, which naturally attracts a large number of entrants.

So when Fantasia Computer woke up, it was horrified to find that hundreds of competitors suddenly appeared in the market that was originally dominated by its own family, all of them were staring at institutions and enterprises to purchase this piece of fat. Who could stand it? !
