Chapter 387: Bayonets and Guns
Lin Qingya's home is located in the small county town in the north of Zao City, dozens of kilometers away from Xue Guo District, the traffic is not very convenient, she will go back to Yanjing to work on the sixth day of the new year, before the holiday has already bought a train ticket from Zao City West Railway Station back to Yanjing on the evening of the fifth night of the new year, today from home to Xue Guo District, she came with luggage, eat, and returned to Yanjing at twelve o'clock in the night. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Because Li Mu didn't want to drive back overnight, he asked Lin Qingya to book a room for himself in the hotel, Lin Qingya opened the room for Li Mu after arriving in the afternoon, and his luggage was not put into the room, but stored at the hotel front desk, Lin Qingya did not wait for him in Li Mu's room, but ordered a cup of coffee in the hotel lobby, and read a book while waiting for him.
After Li Mu arrived, he saw Lin Qingya in the hall, sat down opposite her, ordered a cup of tea, and chatted with her about Fang Xudong.
Li Mu wanted to know more details about Fang Xudong, such as his current income level at Google, his current position and the direction of responsibility.
Lin Qingya said: "I called my high school classmates again in the afternoon, and asked side-by-side, Fang Xudong's annual income at Google should be about 1 million yuan, which is equivalent to about 100,000 US dollars." ”
Li Mu nodded, a hundred thousand dollars doesn't seem like much, but the current purchasing power is still very strong, at least after a year's food and drink expenses, the remaining money can still buy a smaller house in Yanjing, which is definitely the level of a super gold collar.
Lin Qingya said: "As for what he does at Google, my classmate is not very clear, but it is certain that he is Chinese New Year's Eve three years old this year and is the only child in the family. ”
Li Mu asked: "Does this person have any personality characteristics?" ”
Lin Qingya said with a smile: "It is said that he has a high IQ, high emotional intelligence, and is very friendly, but I don't know anything else." ”
"Oops. Li Mu rubbed the bridge of his nose, I'm afraid that this kind of IQ and EQ are both high, you talk to him about ideals, he talks to you about reality, you talk to him about reality, he talks to you about ambitions, if you want to dig this kind of person, it's useless to fool, you have to come up with real materials, but at the moment the industry at hand is not bad in China, in the eyes of Google technical talents, I don't know if it will be reliable.
However, Li Mu quickly adjusted his mentality, since he came, he should not have this mentality of gaining and losing, it has become a good thing, if it fails, he will not have any loss.
In the evening, Li Mu saw Fang Xudong wearing A&F casual clothes in the hotel box booked by Lin Qingya, what surprised Li Mu was that the thirty-three-year-old Fang Xudong didn't look like an Internet practitioner at all, he was about 1.8 meters tall, thin, no hair loss and no myopia, and the whole person looked sunny and energetic.
Fang Xudong was even more surprised when he saw Li Mu for the first time than Li Mu when he saw him.
He had paid attention to Makino Technology and had a clear and in-depth understanding of the development process and products of Makino Technology, but he never expected that the CEO of Makino Technology would be a young man who looked no more than in his early twenties.
The two shook hands and greeted each other, and after chatting a few words, Fang Xudong realized that Li Mu was still in college, and he was only a freshman, which made Fang Xudong feel bad.
After he asked Li Mu about his year of birth, he learned that Li Mu was not even twenty years old this year.
Before going to college, almost all children take the same path and learn the same knowledge, and only when they go to college will they enter different academic fields, some study economics, some study medicine, some study law, and some learn computers.
The technical field of the IT industry is a very large academic field, and if you want to make small achievements in this field, you must at least take root in the basic technology and IT industry for several years, but how can a young man like Li Mu create a company like Makino Technology in the first year of college? According to common sense analysis, he cannot have a strong development foundation, let alone a precise product awareness, is he a genius?
But Fang Xudong is the kind of person who doesn't believe in academic geniuses the most, when others used to boast about being admitted to university, the juvenile class of the University of Science and Technology, the prodigy class, and the genius class at the age of ten, he always felt that anything related to academics requires years of hard work and precipitation, and most of the so-called geniuses cannot stand the test of time and reality.
This is also the fundamental reason why there has not been a Nobel Prize winner in his twenties since Lawrence Prague, even Lawrence Prague can only win this honor by fighting his father, he shared the Nobel Prize in science with his own father, if he relied on him alone, I am afraid that he would have to be at least in his thirties to be possible.
In contrast, artistic genius is understandable.
Li Mu could see the doubts in Fang Xudong's eyes, which he had already expected.
After the two took their seats, Li Mu deliberately asked Fang Xudong: "I heard that Mr. Fang is in Google High School, I don't know which section he is mainly responsible for?"
Fang Xudong said: "I mainly do PageRank at Google, which is a technology related to page ranking. ”
PageRank is an algorithm technology for web page ranking invented by Larry Page, the core of which is to provide a detailed calculation formula for the page ranking of search engines.
Li Mu nodded and said lightly: "Larry Page's algorithm must be the top priority for Google now, and it should be a very high-level internal section, right?"
Fang Xudong nodded and said: "Advanced algorithms are the core advantages of Google's leading position in the field of search engines. ”
Li Mu snorted and asked him casually: "Google shouldn't just have a pagerank algorithm now, right? Isn't there a hilltop algorithm within Google?
Li Mu's understatement and casual question shocked Fang Xudong.
Li Mu knows the pagerank algorithm and knows who his founder is, which Fang Xudong is not very surprised, the pagerank algorithm is not unique to Google, but was invented by Larry Page when he was at Stanford University, and anyone who has a certain understanding of search engines will know this algorithm, even if they don't know its logic, they will also hear its name.
However, the hilltop algorithm is now the core technology related to the search engine algorithm, this algorithm was researched and formed by Google employees in the second half of last year, and it was just patented in the second half of last year, and it is basically still in the confidential stage, and Google has not yet obtained the patent for this algorithm from the employee, and is still doing compatibility testing, and it is expected that it will take at least a year before it can be really put into use.
Now, the young Li Mu can know this algorithm in China, even if he only knows the name, it is already very incredible, the only possibility is that he is really good at studying this field, and has his own information access channels.
Fang Xudong praised from the bottom of his heart: "It seems that Mr. Li has a very good understanding of the development of the industry. ”
Li Mu saw that the other party really began to pay attention to himself, smiled slightly, and said: "Although Makino Technology is not ready to enter the search engine market, but search engine technology is one of the most important technologies on the Internet. ”
Li Mu wants this kind of effect, at least he can't let Fang Xudong despise or doubt his ability, at least let him know that although he is young, although his technical strength may be much worse than Fang Xudong in terms of the current Internet architecture, his understanding of the Internet may not be weaker than him, or even far beyond him.
Fang Xudong said: "Makino technology is now very remarkable, the minimalist BBS of Tieba, not only reduces the user's threshold of use, operating costs, but also through the innovation of keyword open registration, opens up infinite possibilities, the future will definitely be a pivotal product of the domestic Internet." ”
Li Mu smiled humbly and asked Fang Xudong: "In your opinion, what is the biggest advantage of Makino Technology at the moment?"
Fang Xudong said: "Naturally, it is a user, Tieba is a super-large online community that brings users together based on various points of interest, and with the strong user volume of Tieba as a support, Makino Technology can choose a lot of directions in the future." ”
Li Mu asked him: "What do you think is the biggest problem of Makino Technology at the moment?"
Fang Xudong said with a smile: "To tell the truth, it has been beyond many people's imagination to be able to do this in more than half a year, even if it is a big figure in the Internet field, I am afraid it is impossible to do it so cleanly, the product model of the post bar is very good, the model of the happy farm is also very good, and it is rare that there is strong profitability." ”
After saying a word of praise and affirmation, Fang Xudong hesitated for a moment and said: "If I really want to pick a bone in my egg, I think the biggest problem of Muye Technology is that there is no real strong demand product, how to look at this product is more like a companion product, although it is very powerful, but it should be accompanied by a more powerful strong demand product, if it is under Baidu, or under Tengxun, in my personal opinion, it is more suitable." ”
Li Mu raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "You mean, Tieba is not suitable for the core of an Internet company alone?"
Fang Xudong smiled slightly and said: "I can't say it so absolutely, I can only say that if you want to be a top Internet company, you can't take Tieba as a core product, if you want to be a first-class Internet company, Makino Technology is now now." ”
After a pause, Fang Xudong said again: "Makino Technology is like a very sharp bayonet, powerful enough in the field of cold weapons, but it should be paired with a gun itself. (To be continued.) )
