刚刚闭幕的APEC上海峰会,一个倍受关注的话题就是计算机技术将在新世纪的新经济中扮演什么样的角色。比尔—盖茨作为世界软件业的巨头,这次来到APEC会议,带来了自己对未来的判断和在中国的投资计划。不仅是IT界,包括许多领域的管理者都十分注意比尔—盖茨在会上的演讲。盖茨的的声音和微软的战略都成为会场上企业家们热切关注的目标,正象有人所说的,对比尔—盖茨,你可以爱他,也可以恨他,却无法漠视他。有人评价,比尔—盖茨这次来参加APEC会议,与以往任何一次来到中国不同,今天他似乎不单单是推销自己的软件来了,而是带来了一些别的东西。 At the just concluded APEC Shanghai Summit, a topic of great concern is what kind of role computer technology will play in the new economy of the new century. Bill Gates as the world's software giant, this came to APEC meeting, bringing their own judgments on the future and investment plans in China. Not only the IT community, including managers in many fields, is paying great attention to Bill Gates speech at the meeting. Gates's voice and Microsoft's strategy have become the target of keen attention of entrepreneurs at the venue, as some people said, with Bill Gates, you can love him, you can hate him, but can not ignore him. Someone commented that Bill Gates, who came to attend APEC meetings this time, is different from any previous trip to China. Today, it seems that he does not just sell his own software, but brings something else.
