Chapter 165 World Federation of Communication Networks

First-class companies do standards, second-rate companies do brands, third-rate companies make products, and Sumu is now redefining the standards of the Internet.

As soon as these words came out, the scene immediately exploded! I could hear several people scolding profiteers! They also said that they were cutting off the development of the Internet, which would cause no one to want to start a business!

Su Mu was particularly speechless, if a few percent of the licensing fee will make the business fall into depression, then the business order of this world has long been chaotic, take Penguin company as an example, which parts purchased do not include licensing fees and commercial taxes?

The representative of the National Science Foundation stood up angrily and shouted: "How can you charge such a high fee? If so, then we at NSF will definitely not cooperate! This is blackmailing all Internet companies!"

If it was an old pedant who only had technology in his eyes, Su Mu couldn't refute it, but since it was the National Science Foundation, he was immediately happy, and asked rhetorically: "Do I need to pay a fee to log in to your NSF network?"

The other party's brain was hot, and he blurted out: "This is different, we need funds to maintain its development!"

"I also need to pay funds, is there any difference with you, just because you are an official organization, so your status and power are higher than my company?

I paid so much money to come up with a way to promote the Internet, isn't it a natural thing to collect patent fees, who hasn't used their knowledge to make money, please raise your hand!"

It's a moral kidnapping, all of a sudden no one speaks, and everyone has made money, even if it's a salary from school, it's also a way to make money with knowledge.

Striking while the iron is hot, Su Mu continued: "There is a ten-year free period, during which I will be responsible for maintenance and promotion at my expense, what I just said is inaccurate, unless I use my patents to make profits, through advertising, software programs, etc., I need to pay a certain amount of patent fees, which is a win-win situation." ”

"But five percent is too high, this market is very, very big, maybe it can be as high as hundreds of billions of dollars in the future, you are monopolizing. ”

"If he thinks I'm a monopoly, then he can not start a business at all, as long as he doesn't make money, he doesn't have to pay me any patents, even if he starts a business in the United States, he needs to pay business taxes, why can't he in the Internet industry? My Spider software company doesn't charge you anything, which causes me to lose more than 20 million dollars, so who else wants to get involved?

I think in the future I can talk to those companies and find a ratio that is satisfactory to both parties, which is a very fair business rule, just as fair as any other patent rule. ”

Su Mudu said this, what else can the people present say, it is normal to make money with technological inventions, not to mention that there is a free period of up to ten years, Nobel laureate Mr. John Bardeen spoke:

"So be it, I don't think there's anything wrong with it, I also made money with transistor patents, and the Nobel Prize jury didn't think I was a bad person because of this, on the contrary, our research promoted the development of science and technology, and it is not certain whether we old guys will be alive in ten years, why block the motivation of young people, that is their own consideration, and interests are the main driving force to promote the development of human society. ”

As soon as these words came out, no one mentioned the patent fee again, and Su Mu looked grateful and nodded to Dr. John Barton.

It's late, but the atmosphere is very strong today, and a group of people are starting to think about formulating a hypertext link agreement, Su Mu said, and the names of the people involved in the discussion can be written in the agreement.

After arguing that night, he went back to a room without a phone and slept for a while, and continued to argue the next morning, Su Mu didn't care about it, and submitted the detailed method patent application written by staying up all night to the patent office again.

By the afternoon of November 9th, the draft of the hypertext link protocol had been customized, and it needed to be changed again, and it was used in the program, and the media came to interview them, and it was unlikely that they would be on the New York Times again.

The programmers James found had long been impatient, and at the suggestion of an old Harvard professor, they went directly to Harvard University to borrow a computer and began to write what Su Mu called "client" and "server" programs.

On the 10th, the first hypertext link was made, Su Mu clicked the mouse, and when he entered, he saw "Hello, this is your birthday, CNC." ”

This is the abbreviation of "orld-communication-Netork-consortium", and the hypertext transfer protocol is replaced by "HyperText-Transfer-Protocol (HTTP)", the name of which was coined by the experts and has been registered by Sumu.

The idea and technology are mature, and it will be a few days before it can be made available to the public, and many top programmers are rushing to Harvard University to help, trying to witness the birth of an era, and there is no shortage of people to help.

In the second half of the twentieth century, when technology was king, an idea could be worth hundreds of millions or billions of dollars, and when HTTP and CNC were born, some people noticed it and thought of many good ways to start a business.

Su Mu also let Spider release the news of recruiting software and hardware engineers, and when CNC grows and has many network users, many of his ideas can be truly realized!

Su Mu is still Su Mu, after a few glorious days, he has become obscure again, and the people do not remember who he is because of a photo in the New York Times, walking on the streets of New York, no one recognizes him.

Yes, Harvard University is not far from New York, and this morning Su Mu took a car, and the ghost sent a god to New York, and also "inexplicably" inquired about the school where Kate was.

The relationship with Lily is not clear, but there has been progress, he just wants to come to see his first love, he liked it for several years, and that obsession is still in Su Mu's head.

When I took a taxi to the School of Visual Arts in New York, I thought it would be difficult to find Kate, but I didn't expect that not long after entering this school, I saw Kate's photo posted on the bulletin board, which was a still of Snow White and a still of a club performance.

stared at the familiar beautiful face for a long time, the reality and the pictures in the memory overlapped, and they were still so beautiful, with a cold temperament, white and tender skin, wearing a crown, more princess than a princess.

In the past few years, I haven't seen her for a long time, and countless memories come to my heart, and I still like her very much.

Suddenly a man's voice came from behind him: "Man, what are you doing, don't expect to steal it again, I'm staring at you!!"

“…… Huh?"
