A few days ago.
In a luxurious mansion in Beverly Hills, Los Angeles.
Reed Hastings was sitting on the couch, staring blankly at the television.
As a member of the technology elite who had been immersed in Silicon Valley for years, his goal had always been Bill Gates.
Just as he was targeting a gap in the market and had spent a great deal of manpower and resources to design office software, and was about to see his dream realized,
Unluckily, the software caught the attention of the blue giant, IBM.
First, they proposed a full acquisition, and after being refused, they lowered their aim and requested a partial stake.
But Reed, having completed the most challenging stage of development, naively chose to ignore them.
As a result, he felt the profound malevolence from a large corporation.
IBM started by reverse-engineering the software and, using its powerful channels, began to promote it.
