Chapter 157: The technology behind the Internet is king
The book "Digital Survival" is a strange book in the eyes of IT people, and the bold predictions in the book make these "technology madmen" who think they have infinite imagination sigh to themselves, but this book is definitely not science fiction, there is a complete logical relationship in the book, as long as the first step is completed, the second step will appear, followed by the third step and the fourth step, until a future world is created, it is precisely because of the strong logical relationship that everyone feels that the prediction in the book is not out of reach, many "big guys" They are highly recommended, and even some small companies regard this book as a business book, because there are so many technologies in it, as long as you make one, it will have huge business opportunities.
The same is true for Wan'an father and son, they have read this book no less than ten times, but there are still some questions that puzzle them, not technology, but whether the times will develop like this, and where will the future of mankind go.
Liu Lang gave them answers one by one: How will the computer industry develop in the future? Very simply, it is to serve human beings, how to make human beings comfortable, and what is the Internet? Its representative is that with its powerful functions of information storage, information exchange, and information processing, there is nothing that cannot be done, only the unexpected, and life and study will change, especially the way of social interaction will undergo major changes.........
In addition, the Internet industry will develop rapidly, and the Internet industry is a subversive change in human history, which has completely changed the development process of mankind and brought infinite possibilities to the future of mankind.
This may sound a bit fantastical, but it's actually true, because behind the Internet is artificial intelligence, supercomputers and algorithms, and these technologies will determine the future of humanity.
Now that the United States already has the Internet, of course, it can only be called a LAN now, and it can be connected to each other in a small area, of course Wan'an and these people also know about the LAN, and even in the headquarters there is a LAN that can allow more than 20 people to access the Internet, Liu Lang also tried it, and it feels like it is too slow, too boring.............
Well, for Liu Lang, this kind of transmission speed per second is only three or four K, it is simply a turtle speed, there is no network page, commands can only be entered in the DOS system, the screen is dark, Liu Lang glanced at it with disdain, turned his head and ignored it.
Discussing with Liu Lang that the computer industry needs to have a huge brain hole, even Wan'an father and son can't keep up with his ideas, they just need to choose to believe.
Of course, it doesn't matter if you don't understand it, just do it, Wan'an has a practical experience, when Liu Lang persuaded him to do personal computer business, he couldn't figure it out, but now this fast business saved the life of Wan'an company, Liu Lang also persuaded him to do software development, as a result, this business has now become the most profitable business of Wan'an company, and now Liu Lang proposed that the future is the Internet era, so they will engage in the Internet.
However, Liu Lang's tone changed.
"You don't have to do the Internet directly, because VIE already has a very good hardware and software advantage, no matter how good the Internet company is, it also needs strong technical support behind it, you just need to do a good job in the technology development behind the Internet." ”
Liu Lang said this is completely for the consideration of VIE company, the Internet in this era is completely high-tech concept, ordinary people have not heard of it at all, professionals can only be regarded as able to understand, the future will exist in what form do not know, so the Internet company has a huge uncertainty at the beginning, no one knows what it will become in the future, since no one knows, the right of interpretation is completely explained by different people, so various forms of Internet companies came into being, this era is the so-called Internet bubble era。
The era of the Internet bubble in the United States began in the mid-nineties, and the time point in the previous life should be around ninety-five years, a large number of Internet companies entered the NASDAQ trading market, making Internet companies the darlings of the capital market, from 95 to the first year of the new century, hundreds of Internet companies poured into the NASDAQ market, and the NASDAQ index soared from only five or six hundred points to more than 5,000 points, an almost tenfold increase。
But most companies have no physical business, and they add a .com behind their company, which makes those venture capital companies crazy, and the result is that there are more and more "leather bag" companies, and finally flooded most of the market, which forms a large number of bubbles, and by two thousand years, the bubble has reached an unbearable situation, and then it "bang" The Nasdaq index fell from a peak of more than 5,200 points to less than 2,000 points in just one year, and the lowest was only 1,500 points, and it will take 17 years to recover the peak of 5,000 points.
So in this era, the Internet company is actually a "pit", of course, you have nothing to enter, but if you own a company, you have to be careful in the Internet era, once you get involved too deeply, and when the bubble bursts, you have to follow the bad luck, Liu Lang doesn't want to let Wanan Company go to this mine.
However, this Internet bubble era is another good opportunity for Liu Lang to make money, and when this era begins, Liu Lang will inevitably make a lot of money, just buy a few companies and wait for the stock to skyrocket, the return is less than ten times, and then wait until the bubble bursts before selling, no matter who is unlucky, it has nothing to do with him.
Of course, "not going to the thunder" does not mean not participating, and the spring of Internet companies is only after the bursting of the Internet bubble, and then they can be reborn.
In the final analysis, the foundation of Internet companies is technology, whether it is hardware or software, mastering this core technology can be invincible, in order to become a real giant, just like more than ten years of "Ali" company, outsiders think that they are just a group of e-commerce, is relying on the Internet to trade, if so it is a big mistake, "Ali" company is essentially Internet technology, relying on big data, cloud processing and artificial intelligence, if there is no these core technologies, "Ali" would have been finished.
Liu Lang is now asking VIE to develop these technologies, it is best to apply for various patents, don't care if you can make money, it is important to master these technologies first, sooner or later these technologies will play a role, and even say that it would be better for VIE to formulate standards for these technologies, and the whole world must follow this standard.
