For many years in a row, Oracle has maintained a high-growth model of at least doubling sales every year, and its growth potential is firmly in the top three among thousands of companies in Silicon Valley.

Mr. Larry Ellison's willingness to trade five percent of the company's shares, plus $30 million in cash, for a patent on hypertext link technology, is a good deal for now.

As a representative of Salted Fish Turnover, Ellison had nothing until he was thirty-two years old, and many people in Silicon Valley were disgusted with Ellison because of his stinky temper and playboy personality.

However, I have to admit that the company he founded is really good, with an annual revenue of $287 million last year and more than $370 million this year.

Some time ago, Su Mu's worth was estimated to be about 500 million US dollars, but the profit of Kequgou Supermarket in 1987 was only more than 15 million US dollars, and the profit of Penguin Company was only more than 20 million US dollars.

If it weren't for Su Mu who conceived the hypertext link technology, Larry Ellison didn't even know who Su Mu was, and at this moment he was surprised to find that he was actually rejected, he asked Su Mu in a puzzled tone, "You know my company, right?"

At the close of trading yesterday on the NASDAQ stock exchange, it was worth $4.6 billion, and IBM gave an overall purchase price of $6 billion, and I didn't sell even a single stock to them. ”

Su Mu was stunned after hearing this, thinking to himself that it was still 3.5 billion last week, why did it suddenly rise to 4.6 billion US dollars, and suddenly understood something, and asked rhetorically: "After my theory was announced, your company has appreciated very quickly recently?"

"That's right.

It's not just my company, the Nasdaq has risen very fast in recent days, and investors feel that the Internet is about to change. ”

"That's right, even if I don't even get a patent now, the NASDAQ is going up because of it, do you think I'm going to sell it for more than $200 million, I don't think so. ”

Su Mu clearly refused this time, and now there is capital to talk directly with these Silicon Valley giants, and they have mastered the key technology of Internet development, and it is difficult to be replaced in a short period of time.

The popularity of the Internet and the importance of these IT industries cannot be overstated, and with the advent of hypertext link solutions, which led to the skyrocketing of the NASDAQ index, it has been clearly demonstrated that it is really important.

Larry Ellison shook his head with a smile and said, "It's a pity, I heard you guys arguing about the patent revenue in ten years, if it's in my hands, the profit should be at least one-fifth, and if this technology goes well after it is put into use, you may lose a lot of money at that time." ”

"But if I set it at 20 percent, do you think there will be so many people who will come and give advice with me?"

Su Mu shook his head decisively and continued to answer: "No, I will be attacked by a group of people, in this case, I choose to keep this cake first, rather than possessing it as much as possible, the bigger the Internet market in the future, the more I earn, now I should think about how to promote and put it into use." ”

Larry Ellison put himself in his shoes and thought about it, if hypertext link technology monopolizes the development of the Internet in the future, but he relies on this technology to frantically seize profits from countless Internet companies, most of them will be besieged, and he has to praise:

"Your idea is very good, but I still don't think it's cost-effective, I think the future of the Internet should be very large, at least 100 million users, it may continue to bring huge profits, provided that hypertext link technology can really be realized. ”

"Don't worry about that, all the technical difficulties have been solved, and the initial version will be developed in about a week or so, and then it will be refined.

Mr. Ellison, I think differently from you, in 20 years, one-third of the world's population should use the Internet, and I will solve the most critical application problems, and then there will be a period of rapid growth. I also have a computer manufacturing company, so it looks like it's time to expand production......"

Su Mu wasn't kidding.

After hearing this, Ellison thought that Su Mu was joking, he valued the development of the Internet more, but only "more important".

In this era, people's thinking concepts are generally limited, and they subconsciously believe that private computers can only be used for office, information, learning knowledge, etc., which makes the market scale narrow, mainly concentrated in high-end people.

All kinds of entertainment methods that are very common in the market are still in the theoretical stage, and no one knows whether they can be realized...... Except for suma.

Su Mu knows that in the future, computers can play games, watch movies, and TV series, which makes ordinary people also need the Internet, and the market size has expanded to everyone at once, I don't know how many there will be, but it is definitely much more than 100 million.

Larry Ellison thought that Sumu, like many people, had become arrogant after a little achievement.

The personality is not compatible, the age difference is also huge, and the words are not speculative for more than half a sentence, with the arrival of Dr. Seph, he left to find his subordinates, since Su Mu is unwilling to sell the patent rights, there is no point in him staying here.

Ignoring Mr. Ellison, Su Mu stretched out his hand with a smiling face, "Dr. Cerf, we met again so soon, your Internet engineering working group is ready to cooperate with me?"

"Last time I waited for hours, and today we are waiting for you, do you always dislike to keep the time?" Dr. Cerf joked, the first to go to the Hilton Hotel to find Su Mu a few days ago, and he hung it for seven or eight hours, and he still has a lot of resentment.

As one of the "fathers of the Internet" and currently at the leadership of the Internet Engineering Working Group, working for the White House to advance the Internet, Dr. Cerf then adds, "You guessed it.

We're going to negotiate with you, and a number of other organizations, to work out specific rules for file exchange via hypertext link protocols and connecting to CNC servers via the Internet, and then work together to popularize this technology, which can only be determined by user testing, but I guess it should be fine, and it will work completely in theory. ”

"I hope to have a good time working together, and I am looking for programmers to help with the program, and I plan to put the program into use as soon as possible for the benefit of Internet users around the world. I encountered a bit of a problem today, otherwise I would have been on time for the appointment, with or without me, it was almost the same, there was no chance for me to speak, and you all helped those Internet users deal with it. ”

Dr. Cerf laughed and shook his head, and without hesitation, he debunked Su Mu: "I think you want to make money as soon as possible, and the use of the hypertext transfer protocol one day earlier is one day less than ten years!"

"Well, you got me. ”

Su Mu pretended to be helpless and raised his hand to surrender......
