Back To 1995: Chapter 665 benchmark
Chapter 665 Benchmarking
After all, he was the president of Netscape, and other Internet companies took a fancy to Baxter's "experience" and wanted him to lead the company to go public.
He said so, and it seems that he is still popular, but the president of Netscape, compared with the consultants of other small Internet companies, is definitely not willing to say that the hairless Phoenix is not as good as *** Kester.
But the current Internet structure has gradually formed the existence of several giants side by side. The presidents of Internet companies such as ICQ, Yahoo, AOL, Lycos, etc., are all carrots and pits, so it is so easy to seize.
Song Yang just nodded to Baxter. He and Baxter were just acquaintances. Jotus came to sit in the township, but Baxter, that's far away, Song Yang didn't have much friendship with him.
Song Yang held up the brandy and said to Jim Clark who was shaking the barbecue grill, "Jim, through the Federal Internet Association, I am going to recommend you to enter the Federal Inventors Hall of Fame, Federal Academy of Sciences, and Federal Academy of Arts and Sciences!"
Jim Clark suddenly heard this, and he breathed heavily. The Federal Inventors Hall of Fame is the honor that almost all people in the American science and technology industry dream of. Wang An was once selected, as for the Federal Academy of Sciences.
Once you enter the Federal Inventors Hall of Fame, you will be in the same company as a group of monumental figures in the history of science, such as Edison, Stephenson who invented the train, Fulton and Hargreaves who invented the steamship, etc., are all famous inventors of the Federation Church characters.
This stuff is something that even Bill Gates covets, but Bill Gates' reputation is too bad. I don't know if there are any people who recommend him, but there are definitely a lot of people who hold him back and don't let him be selected.
If Jim Clark enters the Federal Scientists Hall of Fame, he will become the first person selected in the Internet industry. As for the two houses of the Federal Academy of Sciences, if he is selected, he is basically an honorary federal academician, but for Jim Clark , This is also a grand slam of life.
Not to mention Jim Clark, the fat little Anderson who was sitting by the side eating the meat, felt that the meat in his hand was a bit unsavory. If you can do all these things, then you should be a man for the sake of Jim Clark. If you're welcome, he will have no regrets in his life!
Taking a deep breath, Jim Clark paused for a while, nodded heavily to Song Yang, raised his glass, and drank the large glass of wine in one gulp. No matter what purpose Song Yang did, he never refused I understand, I missed it, and if I want to wait for the next opportunity, I guess I have to wait until the others are gone...
"Anderson, in the future, if you fancy any project, you can cooperate with the North American Global Investment Foundation!"
Song Yang said to Anderson that Anderson is indeed a technical genius. If there is a chance for cooperation in the future, Song Yang would not mind investing in the little fat guy.
Anderson also raised his glass, and did not reject Song Yang's proposal. Netscape is gone. If he wants to work on the Internet, he really needs a supporter. Backing Song Yang is enough for Anderson to continue to toss in the Internet industry.
Jim Clark drank a lot of wine today. Even if he didn't drink, he probably wasn't drunk. Before leaving, Jim Clark embraced Song Yang and said in a low voice, "Song, there will be a party in a few days. When the time comes Come join us!"
Song Yang understood that Jim Clark was going to introduce all his contacts to Song Yang.
Although Jim Clark's contacts are all from the donkey party, Song Yang is not inaccessible. The only difference is that Song Yang's **** must sit on the side of the elephant party at critical moments. On the other side of the party, there is no chance of cooperation in places other than the general election.
You know, Jim Clark and Song Yang are still fellow villagers, both from Texas. Jim Clark has not yet become an important supporter of the Donkey Party.
With the contacts in Jim Clark's hands, Song Yang's situation in Silicon Valley, as well as the federal technology, judicial, trade and other industries, can change a large part. Wall Street and Hollywood have always been the traditional sites of the donkey party, with many supporters.
Getting this part of contacts, Song Yang doesn't say to change the situation, at least it is enough not to be targeted so much.
"I will definitely be there!" Song Yang said solemnly to Jim Clark.
Wait until Jim Clark, Anderson and others left, Hu Zhiwei couldn't help but asked Song Yang, "That power of attorney is very important?!"
After finishing speaking, Hu Zhiwei showed an apologetic expression. He knew that he had asked too much, but he was really curious. He could hear that the things Song Yang promised to Jim Clark seemed to be very important.
Song Yang smiled indifferently, picked up the authorization letter of Netscape browser, and threw it aside, "It's not very useful to me, but some people really need it..."
If Yahoo can get this power of attorney, I am afraid that it will wake up from a dream, even if it costs a few hundred million dollars, Yahoo may be willing to do it.
The reason why Song Yang helped Netscape to raise the price and helped Jim Clark enter the Federal Scientists Hall of Fame, besides cheating AOL, is also for the entire Internet peers to see. Song Yang doesn't want to be like Microsoft, and cut himself off from the arena , get the hardest punch every time!
Through Jim Clark, it is also to tell those colleagues that they will definitely not suffer if they join the Song Yang camp. It is hard to say how many of these supporters will be able to attract some supporters, but at least it will not let Song Yang fall into Microsoft. That awkward situation.
Turning his head, Song Yang looked at Hu Zhiwei and the others, "By Christmas, Panda TV will officially go on sale, and we will do some promotion for Panda TV here!"
Hu Zhiwei’s spirit was shaken. They came to America, the world of flowers, just to “observe” and see how America does flower work, to promote Panda TV, and Jinling Panda is also planning to take it back for use.
Panda TV's global brand management rights are in the hands of the North American Global Investment Foundation. Except for the domestic sales rights in the hands of Jinling Panda, the sales rights and brand management rights in other regions are all on Song Yang's side.
In addition to learning how to play Huahuo, Hu Zhiwei brought designers and engineers here this time to collect information. The users of Panda TV, and the users in the next few years, are mainly overseas, especially in America. Panda TV needs these users to have viewing habits, hobbies, etc., to modify the design of LCD TVs.
"Western Films has completed a 13-episode animated short film for Panda TV, which will be broadcast on TV stations around the world. The special effects of the movie version of "Kung Fu Panda" are also being produced. Due to the production of special effects, it will have to wait until next year. The summer file can only be launched, and Panda TV can launch the second-generation LCD TV next year!"
Hearing that Song Yang, in order to promote Panda TV, not to mention the whole animation, but also an animation movie, which will be released all over the world, Hu Zhiwei and the others once again felt what it means to be rich and powerful.
The use of cartoons for publicity is not new. More than ten years ago, Niben launched "Astro Boy", and the advertisements in it were Hitachi and Casio. It is hard to say how influential this animation is, but As people who grew up in the two waves of Asia in the 1980s and 1990s, it goes without saying that they support these two brands.
Even more famous than "Astro Boy" is probably "Haier Brothers". This brand suddenly became a "national brand", and its influence lasted for more than ten years. You must know that at that time, with This brand has the same reputation, and there are several refrigerator brands even surpassing it, but they all failed in the end.
Hu Zhiwei and the others can still understand the use of cartoons for publicity, but it is a bit unexpected to make an animation film with special effects directly for publicity. Saying it out of his mouth, and waiting so long, he knew that it would definitely not be cheap.
"Xue Leshan's global professional e-sports league will also officially start at Christmas. Panda TV and Screen will be the main sponsor of Xue Leshan e-sports!"
In addition, companies such as Double Click, WPP Group, Sierra, Fortinet Antivirus, and Yeadex will promote Panda TV on a global scale. "
Laughed, Song Yang said to Hu Zhiwei slightly teasingly, "I'm afraid that by then, the 20,000 units of Panda TV will not be enough to sell!"
Hearing Song Yangde's ridicule, Hu Zhiwei rubbed his hands nervously. He didn't know what that professional e-sports was for, but it sounded like a high-level one, but he could understand the global promotion.
Hu Zhiwei doesn't know how much this wave will cost, but it will definitely not be cheap, which makes Hu Zhiwei both nervous and looking forward to it.
If, as Song Yang said, Panda TV can sell well, then the 20,000 units alone can sell 51 million US dollars, which is more than 400 million in RMB. You must know that Panda TV is Jinling Panda For OEM, the cost is the domestic cost, and the profit is quite high.
New Panda TV, Song Yang's Star Wish Foundation in China, holds 60% of the shares, and the remaining 40% of the shares belong to the original Panda TV company. The Jinling Panda side is expected to get 64 million RMB, which is more than 8 million US dollars!
For Song Yang, who has spent countless dollars on the new Panda TV, and even bought Samsung, LG panels, and semiconductors for the panels and screens of the Panda, this amount of money is not even the capital, but for the Panda As far as TV is concerned, it directly became a major taxpayer in Jinling.
Panda TV will also change from Goubuli in the past, no one would like to go, and become one of the most popular companies in Jinling and even in China!
Hu Zhiwei didn't dare to think about what the consequences would be if the sales were not good. Song Yang's side might not have much impact, but Jinling Panda's side might be shaken. If the water floats, you have to listen to the sound.
Song Yang patted Hu Zhiwei on the shoulder, and asked Gallo to arrange a rented villa for them to rest, and then waited for the Christmas sale. It was a mule or a horse, so they had to be taken out for a walk.
