Twenty-eight years ago today, on August 6, 1997 (July 4, 1997 lunar calendar), "Microsoft" and "Apple" announced a cooperation plan. Steve Jobs (bottom left) and Bill Gates (top right) co-chaired a press conference. On August 6, 1997, Steve Jobs, the founder of Apple Computer Company in the United States, and Bill Gates, the president of Microsoft, appeared on the big computer screen at the company's annual meeting in Boston. Bill Gates announced that Microsoft would invest 150 million dollars to buy some Apple shares and provide Apple with business software for Apple's Macintosh computer in the next five years, so as to work with Apple in the face of adversity to develop suitable software. For a long time, the operating systems developed by "Microsoft" and "Apple" were incompatible with each other and became self-contained. Apple's computer was regarded as the easiest personal computer to operate in the late 1980s, and its special graphics processing method won a large number of users. But two years ago, when "Microsoft" launched "Windows 95", users of the DOS operating system turned to a new and flexible operating platform, so "Apple"'s advantage gradually disappeared. After the marriage of "Microsoft" and "Apple", Wall Street investors rushed to buy "Apple" stock, causing the stock price of "Apple" to rise by 30% that day. Jobs and Gates
