Chapter 1007 All in one sweep
"America Internet Association, unanimously passed the Internet Hall of Fame resolution today!
Federal Communications Commission, Federal Trade Commission, Federal Academy of Sciences, Federal Inventors Hall of Fame, Internet Standardization Organization, World Wide Web Consortium and other departments welcome the establishment of the Internet Hall of Fame! "
The San Jose Daily reported that the Internet Hall of Fame was unanimously approved by members of the Internet Association. Except for a few Internet companies that abstained from voting, the rest of the Internet companies voted in favor of it with interest.
The Internet Hall of Fame was established logically. As for other resolutions of this year's American Internet Conference, they have also been widely circulated. The most outrageous rumor is that Song Yang wants to save the American Internet industry!
Spark Fund is indeed going to lend to Internet companies, but there is no announcement about how much Song Yang will invest in lending to Internet companies, and how many companies he can save. However, it does not hinder. ICNC, NBC, CNN and other TV stations have begun to cover the world with reports Get this news.
The establishment of the Internet Hall of Fame, Song Yang's rescue of the Internet, and the participation of many Internet industry giants in this year's Internet Conference have become the focus of media reports. It was time to establish the Internet Society in order to implement Bill 230.
As for the last moment, the Secretary-General of the Internet Society of America, Breve, distributed most of the nearly one billion dollars that the Internet Society earned by reselling domain names to ICQ, Yahoo, Microsoft and other companies. Ask about...
Even if some small Internet companies are dissatisfied, they can only discuss a few words, but they dare not come out to object. Even if they object, they can't produce evidence to say that several large companies will share the spoils. There is a lot of evidence showing that there is nothing wrong with ICQ and other companies distributing the money. On the contrary, the company that can sue the troublemaker is making a false accusation!
In addition, companies that want to make trouble must also consider what the consequences will be if they offend ICQ, Yahoo and other Internet giants, and whether they can continue to mix in the Internet in the future.
After the Internet Conference, there was a grand banquet. Song Yang went to accompany Tim Berners, the inventor of the World Wide Web, Dunas, the father of Linux, and others in person.
These people are all veterans. It is not necessarily clear how much their worth and power are. The main influence of Tim Berners and other giants is concentrated in the academic field, but it does not mean that what they say has no people listen...
Still the same sentence, some people may not succeed enough, but they want to fail more than enough. The status of Tim Berners and others in the Internet industry is equivalent to the Nobel Prize winner in the economic field.
Let me ask, if there is a Nobel laureate in economics who suddenly fires at a company, suspecting that the company is fraudulent, financially fraudulent, and has no technical content, it is a leather bag company. What will happen to this company? !
It is not clear whether it will close down, but what is certain is that it is estimated that jumping into the Great Lakes of America will not clean it up, and it will peel off its skin if it does not die. Let me ask, will the world believe the words of the authoritative Nobel Prize winner in the academic industry, or will it believe a family The company's excuse?
The answer is obvious. Tim Berners, a group of Internet giants, also have the same influence. It may be difficult to expect how much money they can help any company, but it is more than enough for a company. Well, Song Yang doesn't want to fight a lawsuit with Tim Berners and his gang. Even if he wins, he will probably be in a showy suit.
"Professor Berners!"
"Dr. Dunas!"
Song Yang raised his glass to Tim Berners and others and said, "I am very glad that you can participate in this Internet conference. This is the honor of the American Internet Society."
Tim Berners, who is less than 50 years old this year, nodded reservedly. He is now a Fellow of the Royal Society of Technology and a professor at the University of Southampton and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. The inventor of the browser and HTTP, in the academic field, he is already Dzogchen.
However, Tim Berners is not the kind of person who is too obsessed with American knives. Otherwise, if he holds all the technologies and patents he invented and collects patent fees every year, he may have already entered the global wealth list The list is up.
In order to promote the Internet, Tim Berners gave up many patents and technologies, hoping that the Internet can be promoted to the whole world. Otherwise, the Internet may still be able to wander around in a few places such as America and England.
Tim Berners used to promote the Internet, but now he wants the Internet industry to have a unified standard instead of acting on its own. In general, Tim Berners is a typical scholar with An idealist with romantic feelings, in his ideal world, companies in the Internet industry can work together instead of fierce competition.
The idea is good, but the reality is that from the time when Netscape and Microsoft were deadlocked, the Internet industry is doomed, and it is impossible to develop as Tim Berners envisioned. Internet companies are expected to be like Tim Berners That kind of selflessness is basically a dream, including ICQ, they all want to hold all the Internet patents in their hands, and use the patents to kill those opponents...
"Although I don't agree with some things done by the American Internet Association, it is undeniable that it has brought order to the chaotic Internet industry in America, and the domain name business has indeed made the domain names of the Internet less chaotic!"
Tim Berners rarely said to Song Yang that he still has some appreciation for the American Internet Society that Song Yang created.
Although Tim Berners is a bit of an idealist, he is not the kind of pedantic person. He knows that the American Internet Association is controlled by several giant companies, but at least the Internet industry will no longer be Chaos, so that all the brains of the dog will not be typed out, so that the Internet users will be unlucky in the end.
Even if the order is bad, it is much better than an industry without order. It is better to be a dog of peace than to be a person in troubled times, and the same is true for the Internet industry.
“This year’s first Internet Hall of Fame will invite Jim Clark, Professor Tim Berners, Dr. Dunas, and Paul Mocapiejos to join the Internet Hall of Fame!”
Facing a group of big bulls who came over, Song Yang didn't show off. Instead of going around in secret and offending everyone, it's better to say it directly. With so many people, it is definitely impossible to do it all at once. Into the Hall of Fame.
"In the next few years, doctors such as Robert Cario, Van Jacobsen, and Larry Landweber will also be invited into the Internet Hall of Fame. The Internet Hall of Fame should not leave anyone behind. Those who make contributions to the industry, they are all Internet heroes, should be remembered!"
Song Yang was speaking to Tim Berners, and he was also telling a group of big bulls around him that in the past few years, they will be sent to the Internet Hall of Fame, wax figures will be erected for them, and their great achievements will be engraved down.
Listening to Song Yang's words, although Robert Cario, Van Jacobsen and others were still a little upset, they finally didn't lose their temper. Among the first four people to enter the Internet Hall of Fame, except Jim Clark is a bit special, the rest of the Tim Berners three, in the academic field, Robert Cario, Van Jacobsen and others, can't find any faults.
"Professor Berners, the Internet Society of America and the Bruno Family Foundation are willing to donate a sum of no less than US$6 million to your World Wide Web Foundation, hoping to help the Internet industry!"
Tim Berners also has a foundation. Everything he does needs funding. No matter how famous he is, he can’t move an inch without money. The world is full of profit. If you don’t give money, who is willing to run errands for him? Listen to him Promoting that set of theories?
"If Professor Berners is willing, he can go to Houston Singularity University as a professor. Houston Singularity University is willing to provide Professor Berners with more than 20 million US dollars in funding for the establishment of artificial intelligence laboratories.
If you are interested, you can also teach at the Singularity University in Houston. The Singularity University in Houston is willing to pay enough funds for scientific research at all costs! "
Song Yang said to the people around him, he finally came across so many big bulls, so he had to grab the grass and beat the rabbits to catch them, regardless of whether it can pull people over, try it first, anyway, it doesn’t cost money to try.
The Singularity University built in Houston is still just a grassroots team, but if it can develop, then in the future, it will be able to continuously provide technology, talents, etc. to the companies in the Song Yang camp. respective universities.
On Song Yang's side, the University of San Jose has cooperated the most in recent years, but the standard of San Jose University is still a little lower than Stanford and other famous schools. Compared with Houston Singularity University, there is still a difference after all. Song Yang naturally supports Houston Singularity University a little more. As long as the Bruno family still exists, it will be bound to this university!
Hearing Song Yang's invitation, Tim Berners hesitated for a few seconds. Although other universities treat him as a guest, they can count on Tim Berners, who tends to study theoretical research, to invest a huge amount of money. R & D costs, basically don't even think about it.
As for the colleges and universities established by Song Yang, who was born in the Internet, there is no need to ask, he must be willing to invest money in the research and development of the Internet industry. Tim Berners knows that once he arrives at the Singularity University in Houston, the funding must be huge. Don't worry, he heard that Bell Labs, which has gradually recovered its vitality in the past few years, now receives billions of dollars in research and development funds from Alcatel mobile phones every year!
Even Bell Labs and Song Yang are willing to invest money. There is no reason to be stingy with the university established by the Bruno family.
"I will think about it!"
In the end, Tim Berners gave an ambiguous answer, neither directly agreeing nor evading it on the spot.
For this result, Song Yang is already satisfied. If he can poach Tim Berners, the leader of the Internet academic circle, then other big names from all walks of life will join Houston Singularity University, and it will be just around the corner.
On a luxury avenue in San Francisco, in front of a newly opened Gucci store today, many reporters from the entertainment and luxury industries are gathered here.
Since Gucci was robbed by RICK and snatched from the LVMH Group at a sky-high price, Gucci has entered the stage of global expansion. RICK has invested a lot of money in Gucci, allowing Gucci stores to open all the way from old Europe to America. A large amount of publicity expenses have also been invested in the Asian market, and Gucci has become the fastest growing brand in Asian luxury goods.
At the end of last year, Gucci’s revenue exceeded US$1.9 billion, officially becoming RICK’s luxury brand second only to Victoria’s Secret and Seagram Liquor. Although it is still not as good as Victoria’s Secret and the wine business, which attracts so much money, Gucci’s potential , actually surpassed Victoria’s Secret. After all, it’s hard to say how long the popularity of Victoria’s Secret can last, but as long as Gucci operates properly, it will have no problem at all for decades!
"Elsa Benitez, look this way, yes, this is what it looks like!"
"Look here, Elsa!"
In front of the Gucci store, several Victoria’s Secret supermodels under RICK are promoting this new Gucci store. Standing in the C position is Elsa Benitez, who is now the number one supermodel in North America!
On the day when Victoria’s Secret was the star of the century at the Super Bowl, it was Elsa Benitez who appeared wearing angel wings. The shocking show of Victoria’s Secret became the Rolls-Royce of the global underwear industry, Al Sha Benitez has also become the world's top supermodel.
To be honest, Elsa Benitez is famous now, surpassing other models, and her current appearance price is also the highest, and she can earn tens of thousands or even nearly one hundred thousand dollars by walking on the runway Knife, the endorsement is naturally soft, and the annual income is not even much worse than the average top Hollywood actress, and may even exceed it!
The aura is invisible and intangible, but Elsa Benitez stood with several Victoria's Secret supermodels, and the cameraman's lens unconsciously focused on her. Luxury magazines are also desperately pressing the shutter, and today Elsa's figure will appear on the covers of top luxury magazines.
"Elsa, are you a shareholder of RICK now?"
"RICK is going to acquire Estee Lauder, one of the three major cosmetics giants, is it true?!"
During the photo break, the entertainment reporters around took the opportunity to ask Elsa Benitez all kinds of questions. RICK just issued an announcement, announcing that it would give equity rewards to some of its staff. The name of Elsa Benitez Impressively on the list, she has now become one of the minority shareholders of RICK, the top luxury goods giant in America. Although she is only a "minority" shareholder, it still directly doubled her worth.
"Sorry, you should ask President Eric about these things, I have no right to interfere with the company's decisions!"
Elsa Benitez dealt with these questions with ease, and was used to seeing big winds and waves. She has long been handy in the face of these problems.
However, Elsa Benitez was shocked by the next reporter's question.
"Elsa, there are rumors that you can get the equity reward from RICK Group because of Bruno Song. What do you think of this rumor?"
"Jenny and Monica Bellucci have already entered Hollywood, Elsa, will you enter Hollywood, Bruno Song will tailor movies like "The Matrix" and "The Beautiful Legend of Sicily" for you ?!"
