Rebirth: Starting from selling water to become the world’s richest man - Chapter 100
With Li Shanshan's assurance, the employees present were very happy.

"Mr. Li, is our company headquarters going to move to Longshan City?"

At this time, some employees raised their biggest concerns, many people have already settled in the imperial capital, if the company moves away, they really can't follow the past.

"No need.

Li Shanshan shook his head, and then continued: "Kingshan's headquarters stays in the imperial capital, Kirin Technology develops chips, Kingsoft develops computer software, it doesn't make much sense to be together, you don't have to worry." "

The bottom line is that software companies don't need a lot of labor and space, and there's no need to move the company headquarters.

Kingsoft is now headquartered in Zhongguancun, the imperial capital, which is the first high-tech industrial development zone in China and is known as the Silicon Valley of China.

The development here can be oriented to the whole country and has a broad market.

Hearing Li Shanshan say that the company did not need to move, everyone was also relieved and more satisfied with the arrival of the new boss.

"I brought you to the meeting this time, mainly to talk to you about WPS.

After glancing at everyone, Li Shanshan continued: "I looked at the company's previous report, and the sales of the WPS Pangu version that we invested more than 2 million yuan in research and development were dismal, and we didn't even sell 1,000 sets before and after.

Mentioning the WPS Pangu version, Qiu Bojun and Lei Jun couldn't help but frown.

This version is actually in response to Microsoft's WORD, a set of products similar to the Office suite, including WPS, electronic tables and dictionaries.

But after the listing, the response was mediocre, and it was this failure that left many people with no hope.

In the original world, the entire company was panicked, and two-thirds of the employees in the development department left.

At this time, Microsoft took the initiative to throw an olive branch to Qiu Bojun, and many people advised him to go to Microsoft to forget it, or develop a few other systems at random, and making more money is king.

However, how could Qiu Bojun watch the child he raised die like this, he decisively refused Microsoft's annual salary of $750,000, and then sold the family's house to make up more than 2 million, ready to concentrate on the development of a new generation of WPS.

Now that Li Shanshan is here, Qiu Bojun does not have to sell the house.

But the lessons of the previous failure must be summed up, Li Shanshan worried, now that Qiu Bojun has not been forced to that point, can he finally successfully develop a new WPS, should he put some pressure on him?"

Qiu

Bojun took the initiative to stand up and take responsibility, and then continued: "I think there are two main reasons for this failure, one is that the Pangu version is more cumbersome to operate, making the user experience very poor; the other is that this version itself has no innovation, and it was completely forced to fight against Microsoft.

"I would like to add one more point.

At this time, Lei Jun also spoke: "With the development of the times, publicity and sales work is too important, first of all, our publicity is not in place, many users do not even know the existence of Pangu version, let alone know that Pangu has WPS inside, plus the company does not have a professional sales team, the product is in hand, there is no good mouth, it cannot be sold!"

Listening to Lei Jun's words, Li Shanshan thought to himself, is his sales ability trained from this time, what a pressure, forcing an excellent programmer to become a salesman!"

Li Shanshan said confidently.

No way, he is so confident in sales, with various classic marketing cases in his memory, isn't it light to sell a WPS office software!

Qiu Bojun and Lei Jun also agree with this, after all, the boss in front of him has earned more than a billion by selling water, and they no longer have to worry about future sales.

"Mr. Li, don't worry, what Word can do, we can also do!" Although

he no longer worries about sales, Qiu Bojun understands that the premise of wanting a product to sell well must also be that the product itself can withstand the test, and he is very confident in himself in terms of technology.

"I believe in your strength, but I have a few ideas for the new WPS.

Li Shanshan recalled the future direction of office software development, and then slowly said:

"First, our competitor is Microsoft's WORD, so you must fully understand the opponent, and we must have the functions of WORD."

"Second, the new WPS can integrate text office, spreadsheet, multimedia presentation and image processing, and the installation must be convenient and try not to take up too much memory."

"Third, the layout must be compact, and try to maximize the use of every function key on the computer." For example, Ctrl+C is to copy, and Ctrl+V is to paste, which can greatly facilitate operation, and you can also do it without a mouse. After

listening to Li Shanshan say these suggestions, the entire conference room fell silent, and everyone fell into deep thought.

Especially Qiu Bojun, this remark touched him a lot.

Originally, he felt that his thinking was divergent enough, but he didn't expect to meet more powerful people today.

Especially the setting shortcut keys mentioned by the other party, which will greatly improve people's office efficiency, he believes that this setting will inevitably be very popular as soon as it comes out.

"Mr. Li, I didn't expect you to be an expert in software development, I will redesign the new version of WPS according to the points you said!" The

former Qiu Bojun was very lonely, did not know who to ask if he had a problem, and no one understood it when he solved it.

But now he is excited, and this feeling is like meeting a soulmate.

"I'm just making a suggestion, and it's up to you how to do it."

Li Shanshan smiled slightly, he knew that he was half a pound and eight taels, although he had also learned programming languages when he was in school before, but after so many years, he had long forgotten it.

It's okay to make a suggestion, but if you let yourself do it, then forget it.

At this time, Li Shanshan suddenly recalled the way he was sitting in front of the computer to work, and after coding thousands of words, suddenly the computer black screen of death, and finally the words that were hard to code were gone....

Is there anything more maddening than that?

How nice it would be to have an autosave function....

Li

Shanshan was crazy when he thought of this picture, if there was a function to automatically save documents, it would avoid a lot of tragedies.

"That's a really good idea!"

said Qiu Bojun and Lei Jun in unison, apparently they had both had this sad experience too.

Once when Qiu Bojun was typing code, he encountered a Windows 95 system crash that caused the computer blue screen and crash, and the thousands of codes he finally knocked out were all gone.

Angry, he smashed the computer on the spot, and this incident was laughed at by Lei Jun for a long time after seeing it.

If the new version of WPS can automatically save documents, I believe it will be very popular, after all, Word does not have this function now.
