Back To 1995: Chapter 246 gift bag from heaven

  Chapter 246 Heavenly gift package

  It is the nature of human beings to pretend to be green. There is a saying in the ancients that riches and honors do not return to their hometowns, such as walking at night in brocade clothes, and it is no exception in the Internet industry.

  Being in the same industry in America is a completely different concept from pretending to be Bi in front of your colleagues all over the world!

  Hearing that Song Yang was going to hold the "World's First Internet Conference", everyone below was a little ready to move, especially "Silicon Valley Hero" Anderson, "Yahoo Chief" Yang Zhiyuan and others. They value their reputation very much now.

  Yahoo and Netscape have taken the same path, or Yahoo imitated Netscape, and both companies are "creating gods", making Anderson and Yang Zhiyuan famous, and then let them increase the influence of Netscape and Yahoo!

This point seems to be really useful now. The more famous Anderson and Yang Zhiyuan are, the higher the market value of Netscape and Yahoo will be, but this does not mean that there is no risk at all. , then Yang Zhiyuan and the others must be blamed instead, and their reputation and image will plummet.

But now, for Song Yang to hold the "World Internet Conference", both Anderson and Yang Zhiyuan are thrilled. Yahoo's influence will take the opportunity to expand to the whole world and enter major markets around the world!

After Song Yang finished speaking, he walked off the stage directly, but at this time, the crowd in the hotel lobby, who had no intention of dancing with demons, Song Yang threw out two bombs "America Internet Society" and "World Internet Conference" in succession. ", what caused the scene to explode was that people turned their backs on their backs, and for a while, I felt that the little model in my arms suddenly became unscented!

A group of people on Wall Street began to gather together in twos and threes, discussing in a low voice, once the "America Internet Association" is established, how much impact will it have on the Internet, and whether Wall Street will support this association, or to what extent it will participate .

As for the people in the Internet industry, they gathered directly beside Song Yang. As Song Yang's "hardcore ally" in the technology industry, Todd felt that he had an obligation. On this occasion, he fought side by side with his allies to show Microsoft's respect for allies. support.

As soon as he arrived beside Song Yang, Todd said in front of Netscape, Yahoo, AOL and other companies, "Song, on behalf of President Bill Gates and Microsoft, I support your decision. Microsoft supports the establishment of America." Internet Society!"

A group of Internet colleagues who are familiar with Microsoft's behavior style can't help but secretly tui when they hear this "unpredictable intention" that is not mixed with a little bit of water. With a cry, it's shameless for Microsoft.

Todd's support for the establishment of the "Internet Association" is obviously uneasy and kind. With the size of Microsoft, if he enters the American Internet Association, he will definitely be the chairman, president, etc. of the association. Of course, he hopes that the Internet Association will be established quickly. !

What I didn't expect was that Netscape, which was fighting Microsoft in the dark, at this time, the two founders also said in unison, "Netscape also supports the establishment of the Internet Association. This industry is too chaotic. Now, following the trend and malicious competition Seriously disrupted the order of the Internet industry!"

   When they said this, Jim Clark and Mark Anderson looked at Todd, and they almost said that they were not referring to other companies present, but Microsoft!

Microsoft's free browser is the destruction of the browser industry. The browser that was originally charged for lying and earning money will no longer be able to make money from now on. Microsoft not only imitated Netscape, but also smashed Netscape's job. Means of competition, this is not malicious competition what is it?

Todd faced Anderson and Jim Clark's accusations and scolded Sang calmly, and smiled back. After all, the winner must be more "tolerant" when facing the loser. A few talkers to save face.

   Supporting the establishment of the "Internet Society", Jim Clark and Anderson were definitely not on a whim. Seeing that Microsoft was so active, Jim Clark knew that if Netscape didn't join, then if Microsoft joined, Netscape would be targeted.

   Being in America, Jim Clark is too aware of public opinion. If he does not control public opinion, then public opinion will be controlled by others!

  Joining the "Internet Society" doesn't mean that you can attract a lot of younger brothers and make life difficult for Microsoft. As long as you don't get targeted by Microsoft, that's enough. On the other hand, Jim Clark intends to arrange "funeral affairs".

   In the browser war with Microsoft, although Netscape refused to admit defeat and shouted "the advantage is in me", in fact Jim Clark already knew the current decline of Netscape.

Joining the "Internet Society of America" ​​right now, Jim Clark wants to keep Netscape's relationship and influence in the Internet Society of America while Netscape's remaining prestige is still there, such as getting the chairman of the Internet Society , vice president and the like.

  These are all intangible assets. In the event that Netscape cannot survive in the future, if they are sold, these things may also be able to sell for a price!

Seeing that Microsoft and Netscape have agreed to establish the "Internet Society", Yahoo, AOL and other companies can't help it. An Internet Society, the president, director, etc. have the right to speak, and there are only so many positions to cut leeks. If If you joined late, you might be taken over by others.

   "Yahoo supports the establishment of the Internet Society!" Yang Zhiyuan stepped forward and said.

   Immediately afterwards, Leon Sis, representing AOL, also supported, "AOL joins!"

After Songyang, Microsoft, Netscape, Yahoo, AOL and many other companies supported it, the rest of the Internet companies understood that this matter was already a certainty, just like the United Nations, it sounds like all countries voted, but in fact As long as the five gangsters agree, it's basically confirmed.

   "Altavista support, Lex Lycos support, Excite support..."

  When a group of companies representing the mainstream Internet industry voiced their support, other small Internet companies, no matter whether they opposed it or not, had little influence.

But the process that should be followed still needs to be followed, otherwise, wouldn’t it be a lack of martial ethics? Song Yang said to the crowd in the hall, “The vote will be held at the San Jose Convention Center, and more than 85 people from Silicon Valley and America will be invited % Internet companies participated in the voting, I hope everyone can participate!"

   It is still necessary to save face. We must convince the Internet companies in America to join the Internet Association and let them vote with their own hands. We must establish the "America Internet Association."

   After finishing speaking, Song Yang and Todd, Leon Heath, Jim Clark, Yang Zhiyuan and others began to talk in a low voice, talking is talking, let alone scoring points!

  The entire "America Internet Association" will set up a management committee to manage the entire Internet Association, and then use the Internet Association to control Internet companies such as Silicon Valley.

  The management committee of the Internet Society will be composed of the president, vice president, director, legal affairs, technology and other departments, and the structure is basically copied from the Institute of Electrical Engineers.

The position of the management committee of the Internet Society, which has not yet been shadowed, has been scored by Song Yang, Todd and others. Todd, the first president of the Internet Society, wanted to fight for Bill Gates, but Netscape Bian vowed not to give up, and Song Yang, in order to avoid suspicion, as the initiator of the American Internet Association, to avoid controversy, voluntarily gave up the position of president, and in the end it was cheaper for Yang Zhiyuan.

For Yang Zhiyuan, this is probably nothing more than a big gift package from heaven. The identity of "Yahoo Chief" and the identity of the boss of "Internet Society" can't be said, it really makes Yang Zhiyuan want to get the title of "No. number!

Mark Anderson looked at the "junior" Yang Zhiyuan, and couldn't hide his envy. Although he also became one of the five vice presidents of the Internet Society along with Song Yang, Bill Gates, Jim Clark, and Keith, he was not in the limelight. Comparable to Yang Zhiyuan?

  Just like when Netscape went public, Mark Anderson appeared on the cover of "Time Magazine", Yahoo went public, and Yang Zhiyuan dominated the screens of major media magazines.

Song Yang also appeared on the front pages of the "Wall Street Journal", "New York Times", "Business Weekly" and other media on the second day, and "Time Magazine" was finally the first consecutive month since last month. In the second month, Song Yang's figure appeared on the "Time Magazine" by choosing Internet-born figures as the cover!

   Unlike Mark Anderson’s bohemian appearance when he logged into Time Magazine, and Yang Zhiyuan’s image as an engineer, it’s very interesting that Time Magazine chose Song Yang’s photos.

The photo is from P. Song Yang, who is wearing a suit and smiling, is leaning lazily on the Ferrari F50, surrounded by a group of models. People who are familiar with it will find that this is the first time that Double-Click Company has won. In a venture capital investment, Song Yang opened champagne and surrounded a group of models during a party, but today these models were moved to this photo.

  BMW Xiangche beautiful model, a baseball bat and a jersey are scattered on the ground of the photo, there is a light network cable on the top of the photo, and there are Hotmail mailboxes, ICQ LOGO and signs around.

  The editor of Time Magazine did not write a comment on this cover, but chose the comment on Song Yang made by editor-in-chief Kevin Kelly in Wired Magazine after the double-click listing of "Wired Magazine".

  "Throughout the history of science and technology, there have been many shining stars. They have made the whole era remember their existence in various ways.

  In the technological era of the Internet, countless new stars will eventually appear, but Bruno Song will eventually become the most shining one in the Internet age! "

Time magazine counted the past since Song Yang's debut, established Double-Click, Hotmail, ICQ, almost every step is leading the trend of the Internet, Internet advertising, e-mail, and instant messaging are all popular industries on the Internet now, and these are all Only when Song Yang built it with his own hands will there be followers!

  Business Weekly magazine mainly focused on Song Yang's worth, and the estimated worth of Song Yang surprised everyone, "The third person in the technology industry!"
