Chapter 1000 Dividing the Cake
Compared with Song Yang, Jim Clark doesn’t count on it, and he also knows that if the Internet evaluates something in the future and affects the top 20 figures on the global Internet, Song Yang is basically the leader, and no one can compete!
But it is still too far away from Song Yang's posthumous name, and in the wild age of the Internet, Jim Clark is expected to compete for who is the first person.
In the earliest savage era of the Internet, countless big names in the technology industry appeared, and there were also companies such as Netscape, Yahoo, and AOL that may not be famous in later generations, but have a huge impact on this era.
Being able to become the number one person in the wild era of the Internet, and to become the name behind him as a pioneer of the Internet, Jim Clark is already satisfied.
Now hearing that Song Yang is going to send him into the Federal Inventors Hall of Fame, Jim Clark immediately dissipated Song Yang's displeasure at selling Netscape to Microsoft.
Todd on the side, seeing this scene, has a good understanding of Song Yang's methods. With this alone, the Internet industry will only remember how Song Yang treated Jim Clark, the big brother in the world. Those infamys from the past will also disappear, and as for what happened this time, no one will remember it.
Now is indeed an opportunity to send Jim Clark into the Federal Inventors Hall of Fame and the Federal Academy of Sciences. Originally, Jim Clark was the donor of the Donkey Party. With Song Yang, the Elephant Party will not object, as long as Jim Clark is popular. It's not too bad, it's not difficult for him to enter these Halls of Fame and Academy of Sciences as the number one person on the Internet!
"I will ask the members of the Federal Internet Society to jointly propose to the Federal Inventors Hall of Fame and recommend you, Jim, for inclusion!"
Song Yang looked at Jim Clark and said, "Not only these, the Internet Society, I am also planning to build the Global Internet Hall of Fame!
The Internet Hall of Fame and Wax Museum will be established in San Jose to commemorate and thank those who have made important contributions to the Internet. They are heroes of the technology industry and should not be forgotten!
If you are interested, Jim, you can become the first member of the Internet Hall of Fame, and the first wax figure of the Internet Hall of Fame will also be yours! "
The Internet Association of America was originally hosted by Song Yang. The first secretary-general of the Internet Association was Irene. After Irene, people from Song Yang's side have been actually managing the Internet Association.
There is no problem at all with using the name of the Internet Society to do things. With the current Internet market, who can object to those Internet companies? !
Besides, Song Yang is also planning to use the American Internet Association to give some benefits and subsidies to those companies. Now that the American Internet Association has a cash flow of more than one billion dollars, it should be moved Once you move, the big heads are taken away by the chairman companies of the Internet Association such as ICQ, Yahoo, and Microsoft, and other small Internet companies can drink soup...
The US dollars in the Internet Society's accounts are all earned by reselling domain names. Now the American Internet Society is the world's largest domain name dealer, and it is an exclusive business. Except for the American Internet Society, no other company does this. Being authorized, the Internet frenzy in the past few years has made a lot of money selling domain names, and now it's time to share the account.
The successive sugar-coated shells hit Jim Clark a little too much. He suddenly felt that it was really a good deal to give Song Yang the sailing ship model, and even made him feel that the model he gave seemed a little smaller...
Greg Maffey, who finished the conference call with the board of directors of Microsoft, heard that Song Yang was going to send Jim Clark into the Inventors Hall of Fame and prepare for the establishment of the Internet Hall of Fame. , I feel that this luck is really good!
Knowing Song Yang's tricks, so what? !
Even Todd and Greg Maffei want to ask for a place in the Hall of Fame for Bill Gates. They know that Bill Gates has always been greedy for this thing.
But helplessly, with Bill Gates’ reputation and popularity, even the big guys in the Federal Inventors Hall of Fame and the Federal Academy of Sciences dare not recommend Bill Gates. I am really afraid and recommend Bill Gates , Let their reputation be stink, which will lead to weird scenes in the future, Bill Gates has been elected to the Academy of Sciences of overseas countries, but he can't get into the American Federal Academy of Sciences, one can imagine Bill Gates' reputation in the end what's up...
But in front of Jim Clark, Todd and Greg Maffei are really embarrassed to say this, otherwise, what Jim Clark will pass on will definitely be an uproar, I'm afraid it's not that Bill Gates hasn't become a celebrity yet Tang, I'm going to be laughed out of my teeth.
"Song, Microsoft's board of directors is willing to accept this deal, but the deal cannot be done in the name of acquiring the Netscape browser, but must be included in the cooperation between the Xbox host and Sammy Sega. Microsoft will pay Sammy Sega a sum of thirteen For the order of 100 million US dollars, Netscape transferred the brand, patents, and engineering team to Microsoft as a "technical support"!"
Greg Maffei said, Microsoft obviously wants to put bad debts on the Xbox console project, anyway, it has already lost more than five billion dollars, even if it loses more than one billion dollars, Microsoft has already done a good job. The plan to lose 10 billion dollars on the game console is nothing if it loses more than a billion dollars.
With a loss of 10 billion U.S. dollars, in exchange for Microsoft's foothold in the hardware industry, it can carry out the "living room strategy", let Microsoft's products occupy the living room of users, and break through the group of computer and TV manufacturers. Cost-effective!
"make a deal!"
"Tell President Ballmer that Sammy Sega is willing to work with Microsoft to develop a second-generation Microsoft Xbox console that surpasses Nintendo and Sony in performance!
In addition, games such as "Grand Theft Auto 2" can be released globally on Microsoft game consoles, and the Sierra game platform, Sega consoles, and offline game retail, etc., can be delayed for three days. "
Song Yang has always been innocent. Microsoft has paid such a large amount of protection fees, and Song Yang has to "repay" the other party with something wrong.
Listening to Song Yang's "well-intentioned" proposal, Greg Maffei could only pinch his nose to admit it. He could hear that Song Yang was obviously trying to use the Xbox console as a guinea pig.
Using Microsoft’s funds to develop a new generation of game consoles, and when the research and development is successful, Sega will learn from it and produce its own new generation of game consoles. If it fails... then it must be that Microsoft’s funds are not enough, and more money must be added!
But knowing it, Greg Maffei has no way to refuse. Being a guinea pig is better than not spending money. Without Sammy Sega and ICQ, Microsoft's hardware department is still playing with mud. How can they launch the first Generation Microsoft Xbox console!
"Microsoft now wants to seek peace from an ant that could have been trampled to death with one foot?!"
In the Microsoft headquarters, a fierce quarrel is erupting at this moment. Bill Gates, who serves as Microsoft's "consultant", sprayed at Ballmer who was sitting in the back of the office.
As we all know, Jobs can spray people with autism, otherwise he would not have the title of "tyrant". As a good friend of Jobs, Bill Gates is not weak at all when he sprays people. Otherwise, at the beginning, Microsoft would not have so many rivals.
"The current Microsoft cannot afford a new war. The "living room strategy" has just had an effect. If a war starts at this time, everything will be over!"
Ballmer couldn't help but replied, "Also, who helped Bruno Song?!"
There is another sentence that Ballmer did not say, if Microsoft's stock price collapses, he, the president, is afraid of his position, and he is afraid that he will be kicked out as soon as his **** is warmed up.
Immortals fight and mortals suffer. The rest of the Microsoft executives are watching their noses and noses at this time, and they dare not show their atmosphere, for fear of bad luck.
The conflict between Bill Gates and Ballmer is becoming more and more serious. Ballmer has begun to reciprocate the concessions he made since he first became the head of the company, which shows that he has gained a firm foothold. The rest of Microsoft's directors and Wall Street institutions support.
Hearing Ballmer go over old accounts, Bill Gates was also a little embarrassed. When Song Yang first debuted, he sent a lot of ammunition, just to add to Netscape and prevent the Internet industry from becoming monolithic. Go against it.
Facts have proved that Bill Gates' strategy was successful and successfully differentiated the Internet industry. With Song Yang as the benchmark, there were indeed many Internet companies that took refuge in the Microsoft camp.
But what is embarrassing is that Microsoft was used as a **** at the beginning, but now it is mainly against customers, and it has begun to forcibly cut Microsoft's leeks.
During the silence, Microsoft headquarters received another call from Todd and Greg Maffei. When he heard that Jim Clark was going to be entered into the Inventors Hall of Fame, Bill Gates was really sour!
