#609: Unexpected visitors

Facing staring in a big way attractive pupil foreign-style doll hopeful Carolyn, Eric had been considering how should be able to renege just words, sees Carter Moon to shove open the glass door of dining room, walked toward them. 面对瞪大了漂亮眸子洋娃娃般充满期待的卡洛琳,艾瑞克正考虑着该怎么才能把刚刚的话赖掉,就看到卡特.摩恩推开餐厅的玻璃门,朝他们这边走了过来。 As the Eric personal bodyguard, Carter Moon knows certainly Carolyn, the politeness nodded toward the girl, then bent the waist near the Eric ear spoke several words in a low voice. 作为艾瑞克的贴身保镖,卡特.摩恩当然认识卡洛琳,礼貌地朝女孩点了点头,便弯腰在艾瑞克耳边低声说了几句话。 Eric hears the Carter Moon words, is somewhat surprised, but slightly does not think the accident. 艾瑞克听到卡特.摩恩的话语,有些惊讶,但又丝毫地不觉得意外。 Eric and other Carter Moon said that stands up said to the girl: „Was sorry, Carolyn, came an unexpected visitor suddenly.” 艾瑞克等卡特.摩恩说完,站起身对女孩道:“真抱歉,卡洛琳,突然来了一个不速之客。” Carolyn has stood from the chair immediately, looks does not abandon to ask: „Do you want to walk?” 卡洛琳立刻从座椅上站了起来,面露不舍地问道:“你要走吗？” Eric planned leaves while this opportunity, but looks at the girl miserable expression, at heart one soft, shakes the head saying: „It is not, he has walked.” 艾瑞克本来就打算趁着这个机会离开的,但看着女孩楚楚可怜的表情,心里一软,摇头道:“不是,他已经找上门来了。” Eric was saying walks toward the dining room entrance, Carolyn followed hastily, they go out of the dining room, Eric looked before the dining room, middle-aged men and women who on the road walks shoulder to shoulder, the woman wear the tinted windproof coat, golden hair, is lending that type of professional girl common nous aura. Man ash-gray western-style clothes, go against that are looking like always the somewhat disorderly curl, wears the disk black frame eyeglasses, on the face is hanging the routine self-confident smiling face. 艾瑞克说着朝餐厅门口走去,卡洛琳连忙跟了上来,两人走出餐厅,艾瑞克就看餐厅前甬道上并肩走来的一对中年男女,女人穿着浅色风衣,一头金发,散发着那种职业女郎常见的知性气息。男人一身灰色西服,顶着那头看起来总是有些杂乱的卷发,戴着圆片黑框眼镜,脸上挂着习惯性的自信笑容。 Carolyn stands side Eric, some accidents said: „Is Bill Gates, how can he look for you?” 卡洛琳站在艾瑞克身边,有些意外地说道:“是比尔.盖茨啊,他怎么会来找你？” „The future is bad,” Eric returned to one in a soft voice, moved forward to meet somebody. Carolyn is somewhat small to Eric these words blurry, actually on own initiative followed. “来者不善呗,”艾瑞克轻声回了一句,迎了上去。卡洛琳对艾瑞克这句话有些小迷糊,却还是主动跟了上来。 „Hello, Eric, this is my wife, Melinda,” both sides approach, Bill Gates shook hand with Eric very much originally ripe, then introduced Melinda Gates, although has reached middle-age, but Bill Gates and Melinda Gates officially married at the beginning of this year. “你好,艾瑞克,这是我的妻子,梅琳达,”双方走近,比尔.盖茨很自来熟地与艾瑞克握了握手,然后介绍身旁的梅琳达.盖茨,虽然已经人到中年,不过比尔.盖茨与梅琳达.盖茨今年年初才正式结婚。 Eric and Melinda Gates have grasped starting. Hinted under Carolyn to introduce to the husband and wife to this: „This is Carolyn Wilson.” 艾瑞克与梅琳达.盖茨握了下手。示意了下卡洛琳对这对夫妻介绍道:“这是卡洛琳.威尔逊。” Bill Gates and Carolyn grasped starting, the vision have sized up front this to wear pale pink hooded jacket wide-ankle jeans as well as the fresh girl of white plate shoes light up and down, although the stature was petite, had one meter 55 appearance. But girl's attractive golden hair, the fine cheek and fine figure give people a pleasant comfortable feeling, was similar to has entrusted with the life foreign-style doll by God. 比尔.盖茨与卡洛琳握了下手,目光轻飘飘地上下打量着面前这个身穿淡粉色连帽衫微喇牛仔裤以及白色平板鞋的清新女孩,虽然个子娇小,只有一米55的样子。但女孩漂亮的金发、精致的脸蛋和匀称的身材都给人一种赏心悦目的舒服感,如同一个被上帝赋予了生命的洋娃娃。 The Bill Gates subconsciousness regards Carolyn frequently presents another Hollywood star side Eric, in the heart somewhat envies side Eric always to present the beautiful woman of all forms. 比尔.盖茨下意识将卡洛琳当成经常出现在艾瑞克身旁的又一个好莱坞女星,心中不由地有些羡慕艾瑞克身边总是能出现形形色色的美女。 Introduced mutually that Eric has referred to behind dining room, said: „I and Carolyn was just dining. Can eat a thing together?” 相互介绍完,艾瑞克指了指身后的餐厅,道:“我和卡洛琳刚刚正在用餐。要不要一起来吃点东西？” „Naturally, I remember that here ice cream is good, many years have not eaten,” the Bill Gates nod said. “当然,我记得这里的冰淇淋不错,很多年没有吃过了,”比尔.盖茨点头道。 Several people enter the dining room together, just saw that Eric sets out outward to walk, almost must pursue to make the attendant who the opposite party pays up see that has taken down sunglasses Eric as well as Bill Gates and the others walks once more, although not rude, but several attendants actually unavoidably show the excited look. 几人一起走进餐厅,刚刚看到艾瑞克起身就往外走,差点还要追上去让对方结账的侍应生看到已经取下墨镜的艾瑞克以及比尔.盖茨等人再次走进来,虽然没有失态,但几个侍应生却难免露出激动的神色。 Under Eric was leading Carolyn and Mr. and Mrs. Gates found a corner chair to be implicated, wanted several desserts. Carter Moon knows that Boss and Bill Gates definitely have the matter to discuss, before sending wanted to gather up an attendant in a low voice. With a seat that another bodyguard occupied approaching on own initiative, Bill Gates several accompany also follows a set pattern, separates with several other diners Eric and the others. 艾瑞克带着卡洛琳与盖茨夫妇找到角落一处座椅旁坐下,要了几份点心。卡特.摩恩知道老板和比尔.盖茨肯定有事情要谈,低声打发走了想要凑上前的一个侍应生。与另外一个保镖主动占据了临近的一个座位,比尔.盖茨的几个随从也如法炮制,将艾瑞克等人与另外几个食客隔开。 Tasted several ice cream simply, Bill Gates not mince has then come straight to the point saying: „Eric, sold to me Yahoo Internet company.” 简单地尝了几口冰淇淋,比尔.盖茨便毫不掩饰地开门见山道:“艾瑞克,把雅虎网络公司卖给我吧。” Eric after Bill Gates knows three companies merge the new name is not accidental, although the Bill Gates expression is very polite, but was disclosing a powerful of not mincing matter, including knit the brows to Bill Gates somewhat curious Carolyn. 艾瑞克对于比尔.盖茨已经知道三家公司合并后的新名称并不意外,比尔.盖茨的语气虽然很客气,但已经透露着一种毫不掩饰的强势,连本来对比尔.盖茨有些好奇的卡洛琳都不由地皱了皱眉。 Since the opposite party is so straightforward, Eric also decisively shakes the head saying: „Does not sell.” 既然对方如此直截了当,艾瑞克也果断摇头道:“不卖。” The Bill Gates smiling face is invariable, said: „Eric. Firefly had just issued 8 billion USD bonds, your financial pressure is very definitely big, I can give you 600 million USD price, the cash payment.” 比尔.盖茨笑容不变,道:“艾瑞克。萤火虫刚刚发行了80亿美元的债券,你的财务压力肯定很大,我可以给你6亿美元的价格,现金支付。” So far. Eric in three companies originally always invests also only then 100 million multi- USD, even if according to the Bill Gates initial price, leverages at this time lets go is close 500% profits. 到目前为止。艾瑞克在原本的三家公司中总投入也只有一亿多美元,哪怕按照比尔.盖茨的开价,此时套现脱手就是接近500%的盈利。 But only if Eric were insane, he just will merge to complete a prospect excellent Yahoo Internet company to sell out. 但除非艾瑞克疯了,他才会把刚刚合并完成前景一片大好的雅虎网络公司卖掉。 „Bill, Yahoo I am will definitely not sell, was inferior we chat other.” “比尔,雅虎我是肯定不会卖的,不如我们聊些其他的吧。” Six hundred million USD are not the Bill Gates bottom line prices. Bill Gates thinks that Eric disliked own initial price to be too low, made so the gesture, said: „600 million 50 million is what kind, Microsoft has the sincerity.” 六亿美元远不是比尔.盖茨的底线价格。比尔.盖茨以为艾瑞克嫌自己的开价太低了,才做出如此姿态,道:“6亿5000万怎么样,微软是非常有诚意的。” Sat in Eric Carolyn cleverly hears Bill Gates to be only willing to increase price 50 million USD, but also had a face to say one had the sincerity very much, chuckle, but the girl had realized immediately her malpractice, did not live to say to Bill Gates hastily: „Sorry, sorry, Mr. Gates, I, I......” 本来乖巧地坐在艾瑞克身边的卡洛琳听到比尔.盖茨只肯加价5000万美元,还有脸说自己很有诚意,不由地轻笑了一声,但女孩随即就意识到了自己的失态,连忙向比尔.盖茨不住道:“对不起,对不起,盖茨先生,我,我……” This that although an appearance of Carolyn apology, Bill Gates along carries to Eric sincerely only ‚small vase’ in heart micro angry, he even thought that Eric should not continue | the person to stay own small sentiment in this situation in the side. However, Bill Gates thought that Carolyn after all is the Eric woman, how regardless of not to be one's turn itself to teach, therefore instead very much politely said with a smile: „Miss Wilson, where do my words have improper?” 虽然卡洛琳一副诚心诚意道歉的模样,比尔.盖茨还是对艾瑞克随身携带的这只‘小花瓶’心中微恼,他甚至觉得艾瑞克就不应该在这种场合继续将自己的小情丨人呆在身边。不过,比尔.盖茨觉得卡洛琳毕竟是艾瑞克的女人,无论如何也轮不到自己来教训,因此反而很客气地微笑道:“威尔逊小姐,我的话有什么地方不妥吗？” Carolyn looks cautiously to Eric, her some have not made clear now what's the matter, because if just that chuckle destroyed the business negotiation of Eric and Bill Gates, she definitely guilty will die. 卡洛琳小心翼翼地看向艾瑞克,她还有些没搞清楚现在到底是怎么回事,万一因为刚刚那声轻笑破坏了艾瑞克与比尔.盖茨的商业谈判,她肯定会内疚死的。 Eric did not certainly mind that Carolyn sudden interrupting, encourages saying: „Had any words to say freely, Carolyn, I also very curious.” 艾瑞克当然不介意卡洛琳突然的打岔,鼓励道:“有什么话尽管说吧,卡洛琳,我也很好奇的呢。” Carolyn then slightly felt relieved, looked at Bill Gates, said in a soft voice: „Our teachers started to note that three companies in Eric hand last year, he said that three companies are almost a body, the segmentum anterius also specially made us do about their cases, although we cannot attain the detailed data, but by its potential subscriber and development potential, the overall value should in 1 billion USD about, Mr. Gates, your...... Your initial price was too low.” 卡洛琳这才稍稍放下心来,又看了看比尔.盖茨,轻声说道:“我们的导师去年开始就注意到了艾瑞克手中的那三家公司,他说那三家公司几乎是一体的,前段还特意让我们做了关于它们的案例,虽然我们没能拿到详细的数据,但以其潜在的用户数量和发展潜力来看,总体价值应该在10亿美元左右,盖茨先生,你的……你的开价太低了。” Perhaps thought own last few words were too direct. After saying, girl's cheek some slightly are ruddy, but anticipation looked at Eric. 或许是觉得自己最后一句话太直接了。说完之后,女孩的脸蛋就有些微微红润,不过还是期待的看了眼艾瑞克。 Eric nodded toward the Carolyn applause, looks small kitty appearance that a girl anticipation rewards. Constrains to dig one spoon of ice cream to hand over to the impulsion of that small mouth, said to Bill Gates: „Carolyn is reading MBA here, I think that the professional judgement of Harvard university should be quite accurate, therefore, Bill. I thought that purchased this matter we do not discuss again, might as well cooperate?” 艾瑞克朝卡洛琳赞许地点了点头,看着女孩一副期待奖励的小猫咪模样。压抑住挖起一勺冰淇淋递向那张小嘴的冲动,对比尔.盖茨道:“卡洛琳正在这里读mba,我想哈佛大学的专业判断应该是比较准确的,所以,比尔。我觉得收购这件事我们还是不要再谈了,不如合作吧？” As the Microsoft status consolidates day after day, Bill Gates in Microsoft is king general existence, even if beside Microsoft, almost all people are polite to him, therefore, Bill Gates went against by the Carolyn words somewhat becomes angry out of shame, hears Eric to say the cooperation words, having the light taunt to ask back: „How do you plan to cooperate?” 随着微软的地位日渐稳固,比尔.盖茨在微软内部已经是国王一般的存在,哪怕在微软之外,几乎所有人都对他客客气气的,因此,比尔.盖茨被卡洛琳一番话顶的有些恼羞成怒,听到艾瑞克说出合作的话,带着淡淡的嘲讽地反问道:“你打算怎么合作？” „Yahoo Browser can become the Microsoft preassemble browser software, I know that next year Microsoft will soon bring out the brand-new operating system. Such does to achieve one win-win effect. If Microsoft is willing to pay one to monopolize the expense, Yahoo does not mind some time, stops Yahoo Browser in the Linux, macOS and other operating system in the technical support, more users will guide the Windows operating system.” “雅虎浏览器可以成为微软的预装浏览器软件,我知道明年微软即将推出全新的操作系统。这么做可以达到一种双赢的效果。如果微软肯支付一笔独占费用的话,雅虎不介意在一段时间内,停止雅虎浏览器在linu、maos等操作系统上的技术支持,将更多的用户导向windos操作系统。” In the idea of Bill Gates, always only then the Microsoft application software invades other operation system platforms, never has the exterior application to take the precedent of Microsoft preassemble software, do not say that the opposite party must beg any nonsense to monopolize the expense to Microsoft, this has a dream simply. 在比尔.盖茨的观念里,从来都只有微软的应用软件侵占其他操作系统平台,还从来没有过外部应用作为微软预装软件的先例,更不要说对方还要向微软讨要什么狗屁独占费用,这简直就是做梦嘛。 Facing this young people so ‚naive’ the proposition, Bill Gates laughs in spite of trying not to is shaking the head saying: „Eric, you do in Hollywood is so splendid. Why won't concentrate on the media industry?” 面对这个年轻人如此‘天真’的提议,比尔.盖茨失笑着摇头道:“艾瑞克,你在好莱坞做的那么出色。为什么不将精力放在传媒业上？” Eric smiles to refute: „Didn't Microsoft settle on networks industry brand-new domain?” 艾瑞克微笑着反驳道:“微软不也是看中了网络产业这一全新的领域吗？” Bill Gates silent moment, restrains the expression, stares at the Eric sinking sound saying: „Eric, although your browser software currently almost occupied the market. But Microsoft cannot make the browser software, moreover don't forget, I had in the world the applied range broadest operation system platform, in this platform, all rules had me to formulate.” 比尔.盖茨沉默了片刻,收敛起表情,盯着艾瑞克沉声说道:“艾瑞克,虽然你的浏览器软件目前几乎占据了市场。但微软并不是做不出浏览器软件的,而且别忘了,我拥有世界上应用范围最广的操作系统平台,在这个平台上,所有规则都有我来制定。” These words absolutely were the threat of bare naked, Bill Gates was suggesting Eric obviously. If he did not agree that sold to Microsoft the Yahoo Internet company, Microsoft did not mind that makes any matter, prevents the Yahoo browser software to operate in the Microsoft platform. However, Eric hears the threat of Bill front door schoolmate, not only does not have the anger at heart, instead was aroused a spirited fighting spirit. 这句话绝对是赤丨裸裸的威胁了,比尔.盖茨明显是在暗示艾瑞克。如果他不同意将雅虎网络公司卖给微软,微软不介意做出些什么事情,阻挡雅虎的浏览器软件在微软平台上运行。不过,艾瑞克听到比尔大门同学的威胁,心里不但没有愤怒,反而被激起了一股昂扬斗志。 Reason that in the original space and time, Netscape collapses completely, although the Microsoft binding strategy occupied part of reasons, but the most important point, Microsoft and Netscape use completely is the Mosaic browser essence, therefore, user chooses Internet Explorer or the Netscape browser, can on the majority of websites to the Internet realize the good compatibility, this solved Microsoft to promote the Internet Explorer biggest difficult problem in the Windows platform. But this for a while airborne, because Eric one year has promoted brand-new IE Browser, and swiftly occupied the browser market in the free way, the Mosaic essence browser again has not appeared . Moreover, even if Mosaic appears again, because it and Internet Explorer are completely different two browser essences, but in the two years many websites adapted to the new Internet Explorer many technical standard, a browser of brand-new essence even possibly causes the massive websites unable to demonstrate, therefore the Mosaic browser is also very difficult to promote once more. 原时空中,网景之所以一败涂地,虽然微软的绑定策略占据了一部分原因,但最重要的一点,还是微软与网景采用的全部都是一款名叫摸sai的浏览器内核,因此,用户无论是选择ie或者网景浏览器,都能够对互联网上大部分网站实现良好的兼容性,这就解决了微软在windos平台上推广ie的最大难题。但这一时空中,因为艾瑞克率先一年时间推出了全新的ie浏览器并且以免费的方式迅速占据了浏览器市场,摸sai内核浏览器也就没有再出现,而且,即使摸sai再次出现,因为它与ie是完全不同的两个浏览器内核,而这两年来很多网站都已经适应了新ie的很多技术标准,一个全新内核的浏览器甚至可能导致大量的网站不能显示,因此摸sai浏览器也很难再次推广开来。 Microsoft henceforth meets is this issue, only if not give a thought to the legal risk completely, the technological patent of massively using new Internet Explorer registered, otherwise Microsoft within several years is very difficult to promote a model of mature browser to come out. 微软从此遇到的便是这种问题,除非完全不顾法律风险,大量采用新ie已经注册的技术专利,否则微软几年之内很难推出一款成熟的浏览器出来。 Eric looked at the eye as if to wait for Bill Gates that one answered finally, smiled gently, the body leans forward, the hand shiatsu the tabletop was saying slightly: „Bill, I examined the browser company technology list couple days ago time, discovers unknowingly, they accumulated 337 patents in the browser software extremely peripheral related technology. If Microsoft planned really one develop the browser, please must inquire the patent list to make the plan carefully again. Actually, we can be said as a kind of person, I did not mind that shares own thing with others, but must obtain my agreement. Moreover, Yahoo is not these, even if infringed upon the right or is pushed aside to go bankrupt only has also been able to confess the bad luck small company. If I discovered that some people want to be my thing to appropriate to oneself, even if this thing only value USD, so long as others dare to snatch, I did not mind that spends 1 billion USD to bring a lawsuit. You should be very clear I to be able to accomplish this point very much easily, Microsoft at present the 20 billion USD market value, did not have my credibility to be many.” 艾瑞克望了眼似乎等待自己最后答复的比尔.盖茨,轻轻笑了笑,身体微微前倾,手指压着桌面说道:“比尔,我前几天查看浏览器公司技术累计列表的时候,发现不知不觉中,他们已经在浏览器软件极其周边相关技术上积累了337项专利。如果微软真的打算自己开发浏览器,请一定要仔细查询一下专利列表再做打算。其实啊,我们可以说是一类人,我不介意与别人分享自己的东西,但必须得到我的同意。而且,雅虎也不是那些即使被人侵权了或者被排挤破产了也只能自认倒霉的小公司。如果我发现有人想把原本属于我的东西据为己有,哪怕这件东西只值一美元,只要别人敢抢,我不介意花十亿美元去打官司。你应该很清楚我能很轻易办得到这一点,微软目前两百亿美元的市值,还没有我的个人资产多。” Although has evolved for billion years, but any woman gene deep place deeply is hiding one type Basic Instinct that attaches to the powerhouse. Carolyn is listening to Eric a strong manifesto of being loud and clear, felt the own small head faints, looked that as if presented the innumerable small stars to the Eric vision. 虽然已经进化了千百万年,但任何女人基因深处都深藏着一种依附强者的本能。卡洛琳听着艾瑞克一番掷地有声的强硬宣言,感觉自己小脑瓜都晕乎乎的,看向艾瑞克的目光里似乎都出现了无数的小星星。 Melinda Gates that has kept silent is looking at the expression tight husband and expression indifferent Eric, sighed at heart. Although during the love, Bill Gates is gentle to her, but she also more than once meets Bill Gates to lose the document to hot tempered of subordinate, the success of Microsoft has made Bill Gates look like a tyrant more and more. The Eric Williams public wealth is husband's more than two times, according to her understanding, the disposition of opposite party may stronger arbitrary, but at this time looks like, the self-control of side these two men really missed were too many, this under 25-year-old youth has not presented any malpractice from beginning to end, as if had been through repeatedly the humans affair to achieve being indifferent to personal gains and losses boundary. Even if just that compared with her husband words stronger words, said is similar among the friends chats like that superficially. 一直默不作声的梅琳达.盖茨望着表情紧绷的丈夫和神情的淡然的艾瑞克,心里叹了一口气。虽然恋爱期间比尔.盖茨对她温柔有加,但她也不止一次地遇到过比尔.盖茨将文件丢向下属的暴躁一面,微软的成功已经使得比尔.盖茨越来越像一个暴君。艾瑞克.威廉姆斯公开的财富都已经是丈夫的两倍多,按照她的理解,对方的性格或许会更加强势蛮横,但此时看来,身旁这两个男人的涵养实在是差了太多,这个还不到25岁的青年自始至终都没有出现过任何的失态,仿佛历经世事而达到了宠辱不惊境界。哪怕刚刚那番比她丈夫言辞更加强硬的话语,也说的如同朋友之间聊天那般轻描淡写。 Saw two men to fall into deadlock completely, the opposite that young miss was a few words did not say that fixed the eyes on Eric, Melinda Gates is having to break the deadlock on own initiative, supple sound track: „Eric, was inferior that everybody forgot just these words, calmly chatted, we have the sincerity cooperation really very much.” 见身旁两个男人完全陷入了僵持,对面那个小姑娘更是一句话不说地紧盯着艾瑞克,梅琳达.盖茨只好主动打破僵局,柔声道:“艾瑞克,不如大家忘掉刚刚那些话,心平气和地谈谈吧,我们真的是很有诚意合作的。” „Naturally this does not have the issue,” the Eric nod said that puts out a hand with a smile, has pinched on side that small face carefree drippingly. This concubine various unconsciousness sell to sprout, the hook directs the uncle crazed, was really too hateful, made the person be driven beyond the limits of forbearance, how did not punish even popular indignation! “当然这没问题,”艾瑞克点头说完,笑着伸出手,在旁边那张小脸上畅快淋漓地捏了一把。这小女人各种无意识卖萌,丧心病狂地钩引大叔,实在是太可恶了,太让人忍无可忍了,不惩罚一下何以平民愤啊！ Feels the Eric slightly rough finger to move, Carolyn called one, finally responded that the dangling head does not dare to look at other person of complexions charmingly again. 感受到艾瑞克略显粗糙的手指触碰,卡洛琳呀的叫了一声,终于反应过来,娇羞地垂下脑袋不敢再看其他人脸色。 The wife helps herself break the deadlock, Bill Gates also calms down, to realize, although the scale of Yahoo Internet company was unable to compare with Microsoft by far, but Eric is also not these science company pioneer, whatever Microsoft acts bashful. Although in heart unwilling, but restores sane Bill Gates also to realize that he must make to the Microsoft most advantageous choice, can guarantee the absolute leading position of company.( To be continued.) 妻子帮自己打破僵局,比尔.盖茨也冷静下来,同时意识到,虽然雅虎网络公司的规模还远远无法与微软相比,但艾瑞克也并不是那些任由微软拿捏的科技公司创业者。虽然心中不甘,但恢复理智的比尔.盖茨也意识到,他必须做出对微软最有利的选择,才可以保证公司的绝对领先地位。(未完待续。)
