Early the next morning, Zheng Yan took Miyuki Aso to Cisco's corporate headquarters in San Jose.

On the way to Cisco, Zheng Yan remembered the Larry Ellison he had seen yesterday.

"Miyuki, after the Cisco affair is over, I'll give you a new job assignment. Yesterday I was at Leonard's house and met Larry Ellison of Oracle. ”

"In the coming months, you can help me keep an eye on Oracle's share price. ”

If he hadn't happened to meet Larry Ellison, there were some things that Zheng Yan might have forgotten.

Oracle, as the world's largest enterprise-level software company and one of the world's top 100 companies in later generations, Zheng Yan certainly knows him well.

According to Zheng Yan's memory, since 1984, Oracle has continuously entered at least 20 countries and regions, and the company's revenue has also doubled.

It is precisely because of these success stories that Larry Ellison's self-confidence has swelled unprecedentedly, and more than a dozen countries and regions will be developed at the same time.

Due to Larry Ellison's quick success, Oracle will lose a lot of money this year, and even cause the company's market value to fall by 80%.

Although Zheng Yan did not have the idea of shorting Oracle, he had plans to buy the bottom.

And Miyuki Aso, who is used to Zheng Yan's imaginative style, just wrote down her new work content with notes.

"By the way, Miyuki, when the time is right, I will buy the shares of Oracle. At that time, presumably the funds in your hands have also multiplied several times, and you can also start some to ensure that you make a steady profit and do not lose money. ”

Just when Zheng Yan and Miyuki Aso were chatting, the two had already arrived at Cisco headquarters.

"Good morning, Zheng Yan, I didn't expect you to come over so early. ”

After yesterday's dinner, Leonard and Zheng Yan really looked like friends.

"Leonard, good morning. Actually, I don't want to be so early, but what if I'm too late and you suddenly change your hexagram. Zheng Yan said with a smile.

"Oh Zheng Yan, how can you doubt my credibility. Besides, I really can't think of anyone else who could have given better terms. I think I'm the one who is worried about the change. ”

Although Leonard was joking, he was not completely free from this concern in his heart.

After dinner yesterday, Leonard integrated all the company's information and read it, and felt that the conditions given by Zheng Yan were really good, a bit excessive.

"Okay, Leonard, if you don't mind, I think we can sign the contract first. ”

Although the contract has been placed in front of him, Zheng Yan feels that only after signing the contract can he really feel at ease.

Zheng Yan's proposal was exactly what Leonard wanted.

"Okay, Zheng Yan, you will be one of the shareholders of our company in the future. As a new shareholder of the company, do you have any good suggestions for the development of the company? After the contract was signed, Leonard asked Zheng Yan.

"I'm sorry, Leonard, but the reason I chose to run an investment company instead of starting my own business is because I'm really not very good at management. ”

"However, I have some suggestions for Cisco's current offerings. As you know, I studied computer science, and I have some experience in this area. ”

After Leonard heard Zheng Yan's words, he was very satisfied, after all, he was only looking for investors, not people who pointed fingers.

But Zheng Yan's next words aroused Leonard's interest.

Zheng Yan saw that Leonard looked like he was listening carefully, so he continued: "Leonard, as far as I know, the original intention of you and Santi to develop the router was just to connect to your school's campus network. ”

"Because of this, the router has fewer devices connected and has very little business to handle, so it's easy to do. Later, you must have also discovered that with the continuous increase of network traffic, the former router can no longer meet the demand. ”

"As network traffic increases, so does the burden on the CPU and bus. In order to reduce the request to the CPU and bus, you use Cache technology to retain the commonly used routing information on the service interface card, and only those information that cannot be found in the cache will be transmitted to the CPU for processing. ”

"I have to say that this transformation has really greatly improved the forwarding performance of the router, and it is also more flexible when choosing the connection mode and interface density for different network environments. ”

"But, in my opinion, such a shift is not enough. ”

At the beginning, although Leonard was somewhat interested in Zheng Yan's opinion, he was only a little interested.

But after hearing Zheng Yan's words, Leonard realized that Zheng Yan really understands how the router works.

"Oh Zheng Yan, I really didn't expect you to know so much about routers. To be honest, we are aware of the problem you said. ”

"With the development of the network, our products today are quickly struggling to keep up with the development of the network, and we are developing new products, but we don't have a clue at the moment. ”

When Leonard said this, he suddenly understood in his heart that since Zheng Yan had said some suggestions, he must have a preliminary plan for improvement in his heart. So he stared at Zheng Yan with blank eyes.

"Oh Leonard, don't look at me like that, I'm a guy with a girlfriend. ”

After Zheng Yan made a joke, he continued: "I do have some ideas for the improvement of the product, but whether it can be realized or not depends on you to conduct experiments. ”

"We all know that with the development of the network, users will access more and more content on the Internet, and the working pressure of the motherboard and bus of the router will also increase. ”

"I don't know if you have thought about it, we can set up a main control board, which is responsible for the management of the entire device and the collection and calculation of routes. ”

Then forward the calculation results to the subordinate service boards, and then only give each service board the function of independent routing and forwarding. ”

"Of course, the technology of the bus also needs to be improved, and I can't give any advice on this. However, if I can realize these ideas, I think the processing performance of the router will be increased by several times. ”

Zheng Yan's suggestion gave Leonard a sense of sudden enlightenment.

"Oh Zheng Yan, you are really a genius! I only now realize that it was the most correct decision I made to involve you in the financing of the company. ”
