Back To 1995: Chapter 909 Timing of entry

  Chapter 909 Timing of entry

  Anderson, who was unshaven and wearing an engineer's clothes that hadn't had time to change, seemed to be a bit out of place with those people in holiday clothes on this giant sailing ship.

  But Anderson doesn't care about these things. Thinking back when he was on the cover of Time Magazine, he still wore slippers. If he really wanted to pursue fame and fortune, Anderson could get far more than what he has now!

  Jim Clark didn't care about Anderson's attire, he took Anderson onto the sailboat, and didn't introduce him to those people on the sailboat. Jim Clark knew that Anderson wasn't interested in these people on the sailboat at all, and it was useless to introduce them.

  Anderson and Jim Clark each held a bottle of wine, stood on the side of the sailboat and began to drink.

   Anderson looked at Jim Clark in front of him, and saw that the retired Jim Clark seemed to be looking pretty good.

  Jim Clark, who just sold Netscape and retired, still feels a little uncomfortable. After all, his power suddenly disappeared, and he changed from a focus figure in the media to an unknown person. There will inevitably be a gap.

  However, after the Internet crash, Jim Clark's sense of gap has disappeared, and now Jim Clark is smiling at the situation.

  The media also began to call Jim Clark’s move to sell Netscape to AOL as a great wisdom. Jim Clark sold Netscape for $4.7 billion!

Compare the current tragedy of the Internet. Countless Internet companies have collapsed. AOL Time Warner lost more than 90 billion dollars a year. Even Case, the former head of AOL, is now in an embarrassing position. It is rumored that he may be blamed and kicked out AOL Time Warner.

  In comparison, Jim Clark sold Netscape in the first place, which is indeed a foresight. He enjoyed the high light and bonus period of the Internet. Even if he was the Internet leader for a short time, he has not lost money.

  Think about the opponents of the Netscape period. They fought against Netscape at the beginning, and when Netscape confronted Microsoft, those opponents who stabbed Netscape in the back. Now, Jim Clark has no regrets...

There is a high probability that AOL is doomed, Case has become the scapegoat, Sun has a serious loss in the new quarter, and the collapse of the Internet has made Sun's workstations completely unsalable. This year's loss is a mess. The rumors about Sun are not layoffs. It is too strange to shut down the production line, stop the business in which region, and one day Sun goes bankrupt or is acquired.

As for Netscape's lifelong enemy, Microsoft is living a horrible life now. Netscape won after all, although it was not in the hands of Jim Clark. , is still struggling.

Jim Clark is no longer ready to come out again. He knows that his era is really over, and his age and energy cannot afford him to come out again. "Qualifications, pointing out the country in front of the media, taking risks in sailing boats, having parties and so on, for Jim Clark, life is good enough, and the billions of dollars in cash, even if he If you can spend it, you probably won’t be able to spend it all in your life...

  The only thing that got Jim Clark involved, and maybe a little involved, was probably his proud disciple Anderson.

   Once, Jim Clark wanted to hand over his mantle to Anderson, but in the end, he was the first to be eliminated.

   "It seems that you are at Sibel Automobile, and you seem to be doing well?!"

  Jim Clark is old and sophisticated, and Anderson looks a little messy and unshaven, but Jim Clark feels like seeing Anderson when he was developing the Netscape browser.

Hearing Jim's words, Anderson didn't try to hide it, and took a sip of his drink, "It went well. The difficulty of developing electric vehicles was a bit beyond my expectation, but I'm sure now that the future automotive industry will definitely be driven by electric vehicles." The era of intelligent driving!"

  Anderson is now the chief engineer of Siebel Electric Vehicle, and also holds a 20% stake in Siebel Electric Vehicle. Song Yang recruited Anderson, although he was going to be used as a horse, but he did not treat him badly.

  Now Anderson is leading a group of engineers to develop the driving system for the Siebel electric car, and all his thoughts are on it. The title of "Father of Autonomous Driving" is going to be placed on his own head!

   "That guy Bruno Song," Jim Clark shook his head with a smile when he mentioned Song Yang, "No matter what the rumors are, his investment in the technology industry has never been less!"

Looking back now, Jim Clark looks around, and it seems that Song Yang has been able to stick to investing in the Internet and emerging technology industries. From the earliest Internet advertising system, to e-mail, online anti-virus software, social networking, Then to the payment platform, there are also feature phones, electric vehicles, autonomous driving, space exploration, etc. Song Yang has always been leading the technological trend, and in these industries, he is also the person who burns the most money!

Mark Anderson nodded. He saw Song Yang’s investment in the technology industry with his own eyes. Now that the technology industry is such a bird, everyone is tightening their belts to live. The research and development of other major technology companies are basically at a standstill.

  And the Siebel Electric Vehicle where Anderson works, as well as the Apollo Space Exploration Company, have never lost a penny in funding, and the investment is getting bigger and bigger.

   Frowning, Anderson said, "Recently, Song seems to have encountered some troubles. Someone wants to poach me from Xibel Electric Vehicle, and Song's investment seems to have some problems..."

  Anderson obviously felt that the side that wanted to poach him didn't really want to poach him, but just wanted to disgust Song Yang.

  Hearing what Anderson said, Jim Clark couldn't help but smile, and patted Anderson on the shoulder, "I don't know who is trying to attack Bruno, but I'm sure that the last person standing should be Song!"

  Anderson looked at Jim Clark in amazement. He didn't expect Jim Clark to be so optimistic about Song Yang now. Jim Clark didn't have such an attitude back then.

   Seeing Anderson's expression, Jim Clark shook his head and looked at the sea in front of him, "Sometimes you can only see more clearly if you leave an industry!"

"In the current Internet and technology industry, in terms of investment vision, no one really can compare to that guy. I don't believe anyone can see through the nonsense of the future," Jim Clark shrugged helplessly, "but Bruno Song is here. The sense of smell is indeed beyond ordinary people!"

Leaving the Internet industry, Jim Clark can re-examine everything since the rise of the Internet. Song Yang is one of the people who have gone the farthest and climbed the highest with the help of the Internet. Jim Clark can’t refute this. What makes him feel helpless is , Song Yang is always one step ahead of his peers in the Internet industry. In an industry like the Internet, where winners take all, being one step ahead is a natural moat, and latecomers can only follow behind and eat dirt!

  As for what is being reported now, Jim Clark feels that Song Yang’s ups and downs will all end without a problem in the end, and even the party who made the move will have a **** bad luck.

Song Yang's investment vision in the Internet industry is one aspect, and the timing is also very important. After Christmas, the battle for leadership will come to an end. No matter whether the donkey party wins or the elephant party wins, they must clean up the mess of the Internet Yes, it is impossible to watch it continue to rot, at least it will save a few companies to make a superficial effort.

Needless to say, the Donkey Party won. The Internet is an industry that the Donkey Party has painstakingly managed. It is certainly impossible to watch the industry that has invested a lot of money collapse. It is certain to save the Internet. It is very likely that a series of bills to stimulate the Internet will be introduced. Throw dollars at the Internet.

As for Xiangdang winning, they may not care much about the Internet industry, but in the face of Song Yang, one of Xiangdang's biggest funders, there will definitely be a few sets of special bills, and even look ugly, directly to Song Yang The company in his hand, with the support of tens of billions or even more dollars, has been sucked up forcibly. Other Internet companies are not dead, and Xiangdang is too lazy to care about it. As long as Song Yang's Internet company is not dead, it is enough...

At New York Airport, in the VIP lounge, the president of Deutsche Bank Investment Bank, Edison, flipped through the documents in his hand. The private jet he was flying in was undergoing maintenance. Edison was going to return to Frankfurt to report to the old men on the Deutsche Bank board of directors. Deutsche Bank Investment Bank's results for the new quarter.

  Although the Internet has collapsed, Deutsche Bank Investment Bank’s revenue in the new quarter has exploded due to short selling. In addition, the financial derivatives transactions that Edison built for Deutsche Bank Investment Bank have also made Deutsche Bank Investment Bank’s income continue to increase.

  Nasdaq’s total market capitalization of US$4-5 trillion was wiped out, and the short-selling Wall Street institutions were basically exhausted. As for the loss of investing in the Internet, it is simply not worth mentioning.

  Just as Edison was getting up to get on the plane, his confidant Anshu Jain hurried over.

   "Bruno Song is calling!"

  Anshu Jain hurried over and said to Edison.
