Back To 1995: Chapter 486 Brain circuits are clear
Chapter 486 Brain circuits are clear
In the morning of San Jose, after Song Yang finished running profusely with sweat, he and Ulf practiced a few times in the gymnasium in the villa.
Expecting to defeat Wulf, Song Yang never thought about it, but learning a few hand-to-hand combat may be of great use at critical moments, just like Bill Gates who was dumped in the face of the cake, maybe one day Song Yang will also It will happen, Song Yang doesn't want to be a "famous scene", that's pretty good, if it's like Kennedy riding in a convertible and being shot or something, it's probably going to be a "devil scene"!
Practice a few hands with Ulf, and you may not be able to avoid those things when you encounter them, at least you can have a reaction time.
Downstairs in the villa, Gallo was carrying a plate of steak and was devouring it. When he saw Greg coming in, he said to Greg, "I have already ordered a set of furniture, sent it to the villa, and called the design company. Remodel the villa in the past!"
Greck has just bought a villa in San Jose, and is planning to take Anna to San Jose. It is not a top luxury house, but it is also in the rich area of San Jose, and the price exceeds 3.5 million dollars.
Hearing Gallo's words, Greck nodded. He used to dislike Gallo, but now Greck is much more pleasing to Gallo. At least Gallo is not so crotch-humping now compared to before.
As the co-president of the Blackwater Company, Gallo is already worth a lot of money given the current situation of the Blackwater Company, and he is no longer messing around like before.
Greg took a few glances and saw that Gallo came this time and brought a lot of security personnel to Song Yang. Greg knew that Song Yang was guarding against the small tricks of the bank rivals, and the Asian side obviously wanted to do something. up.
"When will you and Haili get married?"
After sitting down, Greck asked Gallo with a straight face. At Greg's current age, the mid-life crisis has passed, and even the days of these few years have far exceeded his first half of his life.
Now, Greck naturally pays more attention to the younger generation. As an Italian with similar customs to Chinese people, especially a person like Greck who still has a bit of traditional Italian style, he naturally pays the most attention to the next generation.
Hearing what Greg suddenly asked, Gallo, who was wolfing down his mouth, coughed suddenly. For the current life, Gallo felt pretty good, and he had nothing to do with Eric, Evan Spiber, and the others. , You can also find models and the like. It is not so easy to live a life like this after marrying Haili.
Facing Greg's gaze, Gallo felt a little guilty, "We need to wait until Hailey finishes filming in Hollywood, we will have a plan!"
"Remember what you said!" Greg said, glancing at Gallo.
By the time Song Yang finished his bath and went downstairs, many people had already arrived in the villa, including Irene, Wesley, Aaron Swartz and others.
When Wesley saw Aaron Swartz, he nodded to him with a smile. The two were in the same office building, and they had naturally come into contact with each other on weekdays, but they hadn't had much contact with each other.
Now, with the launch of PayPal, Aaron Swartz has begun to be touted by the Silicon Valley media as the "father of electronic payment", and Aaron Swartz is touted endlessly.
When ICQ was first launched, Wesley was known as the "father of instant messaging". Now the father of instant messaging and the father of electronic payment meet.
Having experienced everything that Aaron Swartz has experienced now, Wesley understands how Aaron Swartz feels now, and of course he understands even more that his title and Aaron Swartz's title are both How did it come.
When Song Yang went downstairs, on the Panda TV in the living room, the ICNC TV station was broadcasting the scene when Bill Gates and Microsoft's lawyers entered the Capitol. Almost all news stations today basically have this picture, but it is The host and the invited guests are different.
"As of now, the Nasdaq index has fallen by more than 5%, the largest drop this year. Legal experts are pessimistic about Microsoft's monopoly case. Wall Street analysts have also adjusted their ratings on Microsoft's stock to wait and see..."
Today is the day when Bill Gates participated in the Capitol Hill Inquiry Meeting. The expected picture of a whale falling into everything did not appear. Instead, Nasdaq was directly brought by Microsoft with a market value of nearly 300 billion It collapsed, and the entire Nasdaq fell sharply.
Now Silicon Valley is a little pessimistic about whether Microsoft will lose the monopoly case, and whether it will be split up after losing the lawsuit. In fact, this time, the battle between Netscape and the Federal Department of Justice is really too big. Even Microsoft has some Risk of being overturned.
As for the collapse of Microsoft, those rivals of Microsoft, such as Netscape, Sun, AOL, Oracle, etc., have not appeared today, but they have fallen one by one, especially Netscape. After the market opened today, the stock price plummeted by 8%, and the market value directly fell below 5 billion US dollars. Rumors also spread in the market that Netscape may suffer a huge loss in the new quarter!
Silicon Valley is even more rumored. People who were waiting to see Microsoft's jokes began to worry when things came to an end.
If Microsoft loses the lawsuit and is split up, and the overlord of the technology industry can’t handle it, then won’t other technology companies also be controlled in the future? !
As long as it is caught by the Federal Department of Justice and the like, it is either a huge fine or a split, then the next giant in the technology industry may not appear again.
All kinds of alarmist remarks that the American technology industry will be ruined by the fall of Microsoft began to appear continuously. It is not ruled out that these remarks were concocted by Microsoft to influence public opinion, but they did have an effect. Today, Nasdaq companies are falling one by one. awful.
The double-click company is no exception. The stock price of Double-click also dropped sharply today. Even Double-click is one of the protagonists of this rumor. It threatened that the last double-click escaped disaster. If Microsoft can’t handle it this time, I’m afraid the next one will be split. The best is the double-click company!
I don’t know where it came from, but it’s true. If it wasn’t for Song Yang, who personally reached an agreement with the boss of the Federal Trade Commission, Demos Morris, he would have believed these rumors.
"Will Microsoft lose the lawsuit this time?"
Irene, who was sitting next to Song Yang, couldn't help asking worriedly at this time, Microsoft has too much influence in the technology industry, such as PayPal, ICQ, etc., in front of the possible split of Microsoft, It's nothing.
As for Microsoft's lawsuit, Irene is the same as everyone else, both looking forward to and a little worried. Once Microsoft is over, it will not only affect it, but the entire technology industry will be affected, just like the raging public opinion. Can be split up, which technology company dare to claim invincibility?
Even, Irene is worried that if Microsoft loses, the big merger plan that ICQ is planning may be stranded. At that time, if ICQ merges into a giant, it may also face the risk of being split.
"Not necessarily, it depends on Microsoft's hands, how many things it has, and the attitude of Capitol Hill towards Microsoft!"
Gleek glanced at Irene and said, although the two of them are a bit at odds, they still won't compete on this kind of issue.
Seeing that when he entered the Capitol, he still smiled and waved to the media and reporters surrounding the entrance of Capitol Hill, showing the demeanor of the world's richest man. He didn't seem to be worried about today's hearing, at least he was never dumped in Belgium The embarrassment of the cake.
"I hope that Microsoft's lawsuit can be dragged on, and Microsoft can't go down, at least in the past few years!"
When the TV camera turned to the hearing inside Capitol Hill, Song Yang sighed quietly.
Hearing Song Yang's words, Wesley, Aaron Swartz, Gallo and others all looked surprised and a little puzzled. According to normal logic, if Microsoft falls, then other technology giants There is a chance to replace it, but Song Yang obviously doesn't want Microsoft to go down, even if Microsoft is in bad luck this time, Song Yang often adds to it secretly.
As a hearing that may be recorded in the annals of history, there are extraordinarily many gentlemen on Capitol Hill today. The hearing is presided over by Utah Senator Orrin Hatch, who is now in charge of the federal Department of Justice. .
From today's hearing, it can be seen that the Elephant Party has already gained an advantage in the senators. Including Orrin Hatch, nearly half of the members of the House of Representatives who participated in the question today are members of the Elephant Party.
Song Yang listened to Gleick and pointed out the identities of people like Orrin Hatch. He couldn't help but glanced at Bill Gates sympathetically. If the person presiding over the hearing today is a member of the Donkey Party, maybe Bill Gates He will still get out of the way, but if he is a party member, Bill Gates will definitely be embarrassed.
It depends on whether the Elephant Party is going to be ruthless, or to kill chickens and monkeys. By tossing Bill Gates, it warns Silicon Valley that in the next general election, the technology companies in Silicon Valley must stand in line, otherwise Microsoft will end.
Song Yang looked at Bill Gates on TV. If the trouble of double-clicking hadn't been resolved, then maybe Song Yang would be sitting in Bill Gates' seat today.
When the camera showed Orrin Hatch and several congressmen, they all had serious faces, but when it came to Bill Gates, Bill Gates sat slanted, seemingly not paying attention to the Capitol Hill where he was, his face With a smile on his face, he chatted and laughed with the lawyers on the side from time to time. The barrister John Warden who accompanied Bill Gates had a stiff smile on his face. Gates' attitude is very dissatisfied.
Brad Smith, general counsel of Microsoft, who was sitting below, had a serious face and couldn't help covering his cheeks. He felt that the image he created for Bill Gates was gone.
No one knows what Bill Gates thinks today, perhaps to express his toughness and dissatisfaction, facing the gentlemen on Capitol Hill, Bill Gates showed a tough confrontation, and a bit of arrogance, without any scruples , Orrin Hatch's face was already ashen.
"Mr. Bill Gates, may I ask Microsoft, has it used its monopoly position in the operating system to win the competition in the browser market?"
The first question, although sharp, is quite satisfactory. After all, I am here today to find fault with Bill Gates
And Bill Gates' answer is quite tough, "NO!"
"Statistically, Microsoft is the most respected company in the world..."
