WPS was born in 1988, formerly known as word processing system. It was written by a great god named Qiu Bojun, and I believe many people have heard of it. Before the ODS era, there was no Chinese typesetting software. Qiu Bojun saw the huge market in the future and wrote WPS, which was a great success after its launch. At one time, it occupied about 70% market share and cultivated users' usage habits.
1992, Microsoft set up an office in China and officially entered China. The typesetting software used in the market at that time was WPS. In order to adapt to our usage habits, 1996, Microsoft took the initiative to find Qiu Bojun, hoping to share with WPS format and be compatible with each other. At that time, Qiu Bojun's Jinshan software was really too small compared with Microsoft. A large international company offered an olive branch, and they agreed without hesitation. After that, an agreement was signed-both parties can read and write each other's files in RTF format in the middle layer of the software. That is to say, wps can edit files in Word format, and Word format can also edit files in wps format. It was the signing of this document that pushed wps to the abyss.
At that time, both WPS and Microsoft WORD had to pay, but Microsoft tied Windows and Word together. Nothing happened at first, but later Microsoft connived at piracy in China market, because both parties signed an agreement, and WORD could directly edit the previous WPS document. Therefore, the demand for payment of WPS is much less, which leads to a sharp decline in the market share of WPS and is in trouble. Finally, WPS is pushed to all codes, redesigned, and in turn compatible with Microsoft file formats. By this time, WPS can be said to have disappeared, and now WPS just inherited this name.
Finally, plagiarism, often quarreling with each other. As mentioned above, the technology they use is different at the bottom, and they can only read and write each other's files through the RTF format in the middle layer, so there is no plagiarism. On the one hand, it can only be regarded as imitation. As for who imitates who, everyone should know by now.
As for many people who say that Microsoft copied wps, I believe it refers to the interoperability between WPS and Microsoft formats. At that time, it wasn't that Microsoft didn't have word processing tools. Microsoft's word processing tool is earlier than WPS. In order to adapt to our usage habits, it is interoperable with WPS format. Later, Microsoft's word processing tools were actually easier to use than WPS, and what you see is what you get. After all, a few people are not as good as hundreds of people, and a small team can't beat capital after all.
In fact, everyone's impression of WPS now seems to be in Microsoft's office family. The reason is that this is actually not the original WPS software, but after Microsoft's windows occupied the China market, Lei Jun had no choice but to order rewriting. The code of WPS should be completely compatible with Microsoft office, so the two softwares look similar.
In fact, in the DOS system, WPS is the real boss of China. When Microsoft office entered China, the first thing I wanted to do was to cooperate with the business, that is to say, to make Microsoft office compatible with WPS software. As you can see, WPS is a real office veteran in China, and also a veteran with core code.
What WPS didn't expect was that Microsoft office entered China late. However, due to the popularity of Microsoft's windows operating system in the domestic market and rampant piracy, it promoted the growth of Microsoft's market share, so Microsoft office began to rise with the growth of windows system, even surpassing the limelight of WPS!
At the same time, Microsoft's office has gradually established its own standards, and finally voted successfully, so domestic office software has to be compatible with Microsoft's Office, which is why WPS looks very similar to Microsoft at present.
But in the final analysis, WPS is really earlier than Microsoft office. Although there is a time difference between our Internet development and North America, the related software level has been developing fairly well.
WPS in DOS era can be said to be the most brilliant, influential and greatest software in China's software history. No one. As long as it is an office computer, the two things that must be installed are WPS and UCDOS Chinese environment. But unfortunately,
I started using the computer on 1996. It's too far away to remember. At that time, computers in many units were still dos systems. If I remember correctly, in the DOS era, Microsoft seemed to have a word processing software, but nobody used it in China. Wps is used for document processing and is not compatible with Microsoft's word processing. Compared with wps, it is easier to use and can be used as a form, which basically dominates the domestic document processing market. The Chinese environment is foxbase, which is the most widely used in ucdos (like word) database. After Microsoft developed win95 32-bit system, it also developed office. At this time, wps lived up to expectations and failed to keep up with the pace of the system. It was not until 97 years later that the win32 program of wps97 was developed, and word had become the mainstream (the domestic users who used word in the early days were basically the original wps users, and then the system became win, and wps was not easy to use), and the general trend was gone. After all, the operation under win system is far more convenient than that under dos. Later, wps never surpassed word, but it was a pity that it could only catch up and was forced to be compatible (using the interface and document structure authorized by Microsoft)!
Hello, WPS is an office software of Jinshan Software Co., Ltd., with a very long history! Only in recent years has it entered the human world!
WPS in may is 1988. After an ordinary technician named Qiu Bojun compiled in a rented room with a 386 computer, the first Chinese word processing software WPS 1.0! It is the birth of this software that makes this word processing software occupy half of the domestic word processing software in the following years!
During the seven years from 1988 to 1995, wps developed very rapidly, and the government and enterprises purchased it (for example, at that time, the government and large enterprises wanted to purchase 9,000 sets 1 10,000 sets, and the purchase was WPS); For personal use, wps quickly occupied 90% of the domestic market! It can be said that almost all domestic computers use WPS.
However, by 1995, WPS was shaken. The reason is that Microsoft office began to enter China. With strong technical and system advantages, it quickly monopolized the market, occupying more than 90% of the market share of WPS, making the hot market of WPS quickly enter the frozen era! WPS once faced the risk of bankruptcy.
But after all, WPS is the independent brand of Chinese people, so in 2005, relying on government procurement and personal version of permanent free blessing (world charge), the WPS market gradually warmed up! Office occupied the WPS market in China for several years, and contributed more than 20 billion dollars to Microsoft in just one year! No matter what industry, it has its own bottleneck, so in the report released by iResearch in 2009, the market share of Microsoft office software began to decline for the first time (even below 90%)!
Until 20 10, the market share of WPS reached 30%, while the Microsoft office processing software on the PC side began to shrink to more than 60%. Due to its own advantages, the personal version is free forever, the government supports it, and the technology is optimized and upgraded, WPS has begun to occupy the domestic market! At this time, Microsoft is still using WPS to grab the PC side, but who thought of the mobile side? Due to the rise of smart phones in recent years, there is basically one person! Lei Jun thought of it, so under the constant urging of Lei Jun, the WPS mobile version began to establish the R&D department! The first WPS mobile office processing software was released on 20 1 1. There are more than 200 million monthly active users of PCs and mobile terminals that create WPS!
Therefore, it is not easy for WPS to develop like this after years of hard work!
The wps of word shanzhai is actually the so-called cooperative development class, and then the micro-giant pinched off Jinshan.
Wps is a cottage; Maybe not at first; Later, MS Office was copied; Maybe you want to wash white now?
Idiots, go and worship Qiu Bojun! Look at Qiu Bojun's patent, see what language the first edition of WPS was written in and what Qiu Bojun experienced! See which is earlier, WPS or msoffice! Are you stupid enough to search? Take a good look at Qiu Bojun's position in the hacker world in China! It's not a hacker who knows that two network commands exploit a loophole!
WPS is a fake WS, hence its name. Word shanzhai WPS is very unsuccessful and clumsy, but Microsoft's trick is binding. At first, office was tied to the system, so clumsy things became popular, crowding out stronger competitors.
1984 and 1985 we used WS Chinese editing system. I really don't know where it came from. It was not until the advent of windows3.2 more than 90 years ago that ws was not used.
I use Yongzhong to work.
