Back To 1995: Chapter 105 the wicked

  Chapter 105 The villain

  Continuous introduction of mailbox management bills, such measures as mailbox voting, is undoubtedly a major benefit for e-mail, especially for Hotmail, the current leader in the e-mail industry.

Just from the few states that are planning to implement electronic ballots, they have received tens of millions of dollars in purchase fees. Once email ballots are promoted to the entire America, Hotmail mailboxes can get purchases from the federal government every year. Fees, probably more than tens of millions of dollars!

  In the hotel where the IAB Association was founded, Song Yang was playing with the ribbon on the arm of the future Internet advertising queen. This is one of the decorations that women from traditional Jewish families like to wear.

  Looking at Irene in his arms, Song Yang couldn't help thinking of the scene just now. Who would have imagined that Irene, who usually wears old-fashioned old-fashioned clothes, would have a different scene on the bed.

  Compared to Jenny, Song Yang feels that Irene is more like a little wild cat on the bed. Looking at Irene who has just experienced human affairs, if she is not too tired, Song Yang would like to taste the marrow again.

At this moment, the mobile phone on the bedside suddenly rang. Song Yang was about to hang up the phone, but Irene groaned and woke up. She looked at Song Yang and remembered the scene just now. Lynn got under the covers again.

   Seeing Irene wake up, Song Yang had no choice but to connect the phone, and Jim Clark's angry voice immediately came from the other end of the phone, "Song, what do you want to do?"

   Song Yang frowned when he heard this. Jim Clark really claimed to be the godfather of the Internet in America. He stretched his hands long enough. This is not the first time he has intervened in Song Yang's affairs, right?

   "I don't know Director Jim, what does this mean, I can't remember, where did it affect Netscape!"

  Song Yang was **** off. This was to tell Jim Clark that each side of the road faces the sky, and if there is nothing to do, go to Song Yang's one-acre three-point land. If it is more serious, they should scold each other.

Irene listened to the phone and knew that it was Jim Clark calling. She had never met the godfather of the Internet, but she also knew that he was the most powerful figure on the Internet and even in Silicon Valley, and could even influence the American Federation to Internet industry policies.

  While listening to Song Yang and Jim Clark fighting each other, Irene suddenly discovered that Song Yang seemed to have become one of the big names in the Internet industry.

  How long has it been since Irene met Song Yang, when Double-click was just a grass-roots team, but now it has nearly 600 members and an Internet giant with a valuation of more than 100 million US dollars.

  Hotmail is already the most popular e-mail in the world. By the end of the year, it is estimated that it will become the Internet product with the most users in the world.

There are also ICQ and American Telecom. Song Yang planned ICQ into the instant messaging software industry. Irene is not sure about ICQ's performance, but Irene can be sure that the Internet industry in America will definitely change because of the emergence of ICQ. It was turbulent, without any basis, it was entirely Irene's intuition.

   Needless to say, American Telecom, I am afraid that no one would have imagined that Song Yang, who is still in the Internet industry, would extend his hand to the telecommunications industry where there are many giants, and start preparing for a line worth 300 million US dollars.

   All of this was created by Song Yang. Irene doesn't know who can do all this in the younger generation of America.

The American media has hyped many geniuses, but Irene only heard about those geniuses, but Song Yang was in front of her eyes, and she had been in contact with her at a negative distance. Thinking of this, Irene cursed herself, how could she think of those things, but she remembered just now The scene made Irene blush.

Irene doesn't know where Song Yang will go if he gives Song Yang some more time. Maybe he will surpass Jim Clark and Mark Anderson today, and even reach the same level as Bill Gates. , Irene suddenly felt a little hot and dry, looking at Song Yang, she couldn't help being a little confused.

   Song Yang, who was chatting with Jim Clark, didn't notice any abnormalities in Irene, only felt that her body temperature had risen a lot.

   "Song, you know what I'm talking about, the e-mail ballot is not as simple as you think!"

   "Next year's election, the Grand Commander is bound to win. Do you want to stop it?" Jim Clark asked Song Yang.

   Song Yang curled his lips. Jim Clark is threatening Song Yang. After the re-election of the commander-in-chief next year, he will find fault with Song Yang in the next four years.

   This is indeed a problem, but it's not Song Yang's turn to worry. To put it bluntly, the mail ballots are still fighting the donkey party and the elephant party. Song Yang just provides them with a new battlefield!

  Rubbing Irene's delicate long golden hair, Song Yang still doesn't want to take the blame. The commander who is destined to be re-elected is really missed.

   “E-mail voting, Internet voting will be as much a part of American election voting as mail-in voting, we all know that!”

"I can only guarantee that the votes of the Hotmail email address will not be affected by other people!" Song Yang said on the phone, this is to promise Jim Clark and the person who asked him to make this call, no Let the Hotmail mailbox completely fall to the elephant party, and it will not use means to influence votes.

   "It better be so!"

  Jim Clark hung up the phone angrily. After putting down the phone, Jim Clark couldn't help but cursed. Song Yang's attitude made him, who claims to be the leader of the American Internet, very dissatisfied.

But Jim Clark also sensed the crisis. Song Yang's attitude made Jim Clark clearly feel that Netscape's influence on the Internet industry in America was decreasing. He didn't know who was still the same as Song Yang, but Yahoo and AOL still Lycos and other companies, on the surface, all use Netscape as their leader, but at the critical moment, are they on Netscape's side?

  Jim Clark feels that it is necessary to make some big moves to let the 25-year-olds in the Internet industry know who is the boss of the Internet in America!

   But before Jim could think about it, another person sitting in the room sneered and said to Jim Clark, "Jim, is this your strength on the Internet?"

   "If Congressman Reed knows that you can't even deal with a newcomer to the Internet like Bruno Song, I don't think he will be too satisfied with your performance!"

Jim Clark looked at the people in the room angrily, but the people Jim Clark saw had no fear, but instead looked at Jim Clark provocatively. Others feared him, the godfather of the Internet, but he, John Dole, was not afraid at all. .

  John Dole, one of the co-founders of KPCB Venture Capital, Intel, SUN, and Jim Clark and Netscape in front of him are all invested by KPCB behind him.

  In addition to the identity of KPCB, John Dole has another identity, the "hub" between Silicon Valley and Washington, which can also be called a broker!

To a certain extent, Reid is the most well-connected person in the Silicon Valley circle. In addition, he has an unpredictable relationship with Washington. Today, more than half of the Internet strategies of the general are influenced by John Dole. In Washington DC and Silicon Valley, he can be regarded as a figure with good hands and eyes.

Of course, when there is trouble, John needs to come forward to coordinate. For example, the Hotmail mailbox ballot that just appeared, the Donkey Party is also a little worried. Email voting will become a sharp sword in the hands of the Elephant Party, so he is asked to come with Jim. deal with it.

Song Yang was not from the orthodox Silicon Valley, and he did not accept Silicon Valley venture capital. This made it impossible for John Dole to come forward directly. He could only let Jim, the leader, come forward to restrain the younger brothers below, but it seemed that the effect was not very good. At least he failed to acquire Hotmail, so John Dole naturally had to sneer at Jim.

Jim Clark, who was ridiculed for a while, was not angry when he heard Congressman Reed's words. John Dole could yell at him, but Reed couldn't. This is the boss of the American Federal Communications Commission. The Internet is also under his jurisdiction, and the rapid development of Netscape is inseparable from Reed's care.

   "You should take care of yourself first. If the new telecommunications bill fails to pass next year, I don't know what Reid will think of you!" Jim Clark said to John Dole.

  As a broker, John Dole relies on his relationship and influence with the technology industry. If the new telecommunications bill in America is to be passed, all parties need to contribute. He is also helping Reed to operate this matter.

   "This matter has been resolved, Bruno Song knows what to do, and I will take care of the Internet industry!"

After finishing speaking, Jim Clark left with a straight face. At this moment, he couldn't wait to let Netscape become the Microsoft of the Internet industry. Look at Microsoft, the arch-rival in the software industry, and look at the Internet industry. Double-click, Yahoo! Waiting for the attitude towards Netscape, this status is simply different.

  After Song Yang hung up the phone, he was in a bad mood, not only because of Netscape's dictating to his side, but also because Song Yang felt the lack of influence in the Federation.

Netscape dares to point fingers again and again. Apart from its influence on the Internet, the most important thing is that it has a large group of supporters behind it. There are people in Silicon Valley, Wall Street, and Washington D.C., so even if it is as strong as Microsoft, it is also regarded as Netscape sued and almost split up. In the end, they lost the lawsuit and had to pay nearly one billion dollars to Netscape.

  Song Yang let out a long sigh. He didn't know when he would be able to have the influence of Netscape with those properties in his hands, free from constraints and influences!

Hearing Song Yang's sigh, Aileen posted it up and made a smack on Song Yang's face, "My father said that sometimes when you find a wisdom tooth, you can't pull it out right away, but you need to wait for the right time. Timing will solve these troubles!"

   "Your father?" Song Yang looked at Irene suspiciously.

   "A dentist, best doctor in Houston!"

   Song Yang listened to Irene's words and knew that she was trying to remind Song Yang that he couldn't eat hot tofu in a hurry. Even if he was dissatisfied with Netscape, now was not the time to turn against Netscape and the people behind it.

   "This opportunity will not last long!"

  Song Yang wasn't too entangled. Anyway, Netscape wouldn't be able to deal with him for long. Microsoft should come to his door soon, and let Netscape know what it means to be a wicked person.

  Looking down at Irene, Song Yang grabbed Irene who was about to get into the quilt, and then covered the quilt.
