"You have read these materials first, so that you can understand the company. ”

With a smile on his face, Henry invited Helen Wheeler to sit down, then handed her a copy of the papers.

Helen Wheeler nodded in response, carefully taking the papers.

When Henry saw her sitting there restrained, he said, "Your main job from now on is to help me organize my daily papers, and then remind me of some important things." By the way, your office is located on the right side of my office, so you can be on call. Well, you go browse the materials now, and then we'll go out for dinner together. ”

Helen looked to the right and saw a small room with a glass window separating her. Hearing Henry tell her to go through the information, he immediately answered, then stood up and prepared to walk over.

"Wait a minute!"

Helen's footsteps suddenly stopped, turned around and asked, "Chairman, what do you have to order?"

"This is the phone that the company allotted to you, you take it first. Henry handed over a "brick" mobile phone, still Motorola's latest, for three or four thousand dollars. Henry doesn't have a cell phone himself, it's inconvenient to take this thing out, he can't hold it in his pocket, he has to hold it in his hand all the time, it's dead. Henry gave his full-time driver a mobile phone, and if someone wanted to contact Henry, he would call the driver's number. However, this is not very convenient, but fortunately, a personal secretary has been recruited now. If you have something to do with yourself, ask them to call the secretary.

Helen was shocked, the company's treatment is so good, and she has a mobile phone just after going to work!

"Thank you, Chairman. ”

"Go ahead and get acquainted with the company as soon as possible. Henry finished speaking, and looked down at the file.

This document is the preparation of Global Online, which has begun to take shape, with an email development team, a web development team, a news and entertainment newsroom, and a number of other job positions, with a total of 95 people recruited in a scattered manner.

Henry's positioning of Global Online as an online service, and what could be more awesome about online services than a web portal? AOL simply provides their service functions, and has not yet developed to the level of a web portal. In the past, AOL and Yahoo were the two largest portals at the time.

True, it was a bit early to develop the portal at this time. First, there are fewer netizens, and secondly, there are fewer websites. But that didn't stop Henry from turning Global Online into a portal. Think about it, compared with an ordinary website and a web portal, who is more prominent and who is more popular with netizens? Undoubtedly, of course, it is a web portal.

While making a global online portal, it also provides various online service functions such as email, which can completely beat AOL!

However, to be a web portal, you need to know which websites have more traffic and are more popular, so as to better provide users with the most accurate services. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a software to count the traffic of each website.

Alexa, a website that specializes in publishing world rankings of websites in the past life, has developed a software AlexaToolbar, which is a tool embedded in Microsoft's Internet Explorer browser, which sends Alexa a string of code to Alexa when a user visits every web page, telling Alexa about that browsing. On the toolbar, users will see information about the ranking of the websites they are browsing among all the sites in the world.

Therefore, it is necessary for Global Online to develop a software similar to the Alexa toolbar.

So, before the global online was officially launched, Henry began to tell them to develop an Alexa software. By the time Henry had explained to Geely Hurt, it was almost half past five, and most of the company's employees had already left work.

When Henry saw that Helen was reading the information carefully, he walked over and shouted, "Helen, it's time to get off work, let's go to dinner together." ”

"Chairman, I...... I can't eat with you. ”

"What's wrong?"

"I also have to go home to take care of my mother. ”

It dawned on Henry that he had forgotten about this!

"Well, then you go home first. ”

"Thank you, Chairman. Helen said happily, "Then I'll take my leave!"

"Okay. Oh, wait a minute!"

Helen looked at Henry suspiciously.

At this time, Henry took out a stack of money from the drawer, handed it to her, and said, "This is the company to advance one-third of your salary." ”

"Chairman, thank you so much!!" Helen took the money and couldn't help crying.

Henry smiled and handed you a tissue: "Then you will work hard in the future, don't let the boss and me down! Come, quickly wipe your tears, or you will be seen by others." I'll say I'm 'bullying' the new secretary!"

"Thank you, Chairman!"

"Go home quickly, your mother may be in a hurry. ”

Helen nodded, and turned away, walking lightly, like a cheerful lark.

Henry shook his head and said with a smile: "In the end, I still have the mentality of an uncle, and the girl controls the wood?"

……

The following week, Henry got along with Helen, who was a very hardworking person and worked hard. Although sometimes mistakes can be made due to lack of experience, the progress is extraordinary.

Henry learned from her conversation that her father abandoned his wife and daughter in his early years, and did not know where to go, and his mother raised her with great pain, and finally got a serious illness and was bedridden all day. Henry gave her an advance of $3,000, which was basically spent on the cost of medical treatment. She didn't buy new clothes, she didn't buy makeup, she didn't wear high heels, she was as pure as Cinderella in the country when Henry first saw her.

It's just that Helen now has a lot of smiles on her face, and at the same time, she is much more confident!

The end of 1987 was approaching, and the company had to pay taxes again. Henry thought about Helen's mother, and then thought about the United States to avoid taxes by doing charity. I thought: Charity is always better than paying taxes! Charity not only avoids taxes, but also can get fame, which has a great effect on improving the corporate image!

Subsequently, Henry asked Cisco to set up a charitable foundation. Although the annual financial statements have not yet come out, Henry roughly estimates that Cisco's sales this year exceed $100 million, and it must pay a lot of taxes. Henry consulted with Mr. and Mrs. Bossak, and only informed Sequoia Capital, and regardless of whether they agreed or not, they established the Cisco Charitable Foundation. Subsequently, Cisco donated $10 million.

Henry went along with the flow and listed Helen's mother as the first charity object. For Henry, helping Helen's mother was an inconsequential trifle, but for Helen's family, it was a great boon!

Suddenly one day, Helen ran to Henry's office crying. When Henry saw her pear blossoms and rain, he was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly asked, "Why are you crying?"

"Chairman, my mother was so happy that I was helped by a charitable fund, so I cried. Helen said excitedly, the documents Henry gave him were only the information of the Nicholas Group Company, and Henry's other industries, she had not yet come into contact with them, but it would not be long before she would have been in contact with them!

"Well, since you're happy, you should smile more. Prepare yourself and help me get Geely Hurt in. ”

"Okay, Chairman. ”

It wasn't long before Geely Hurt arrived.

Helen served a cup of coffee to Geely Hurt, and Geely Hettmin took a sip and said with a smile: "Miss Helen's coffee making skills are increasing every day." ”

Helen's face turned red and she hurriedly retreated.

Henry shook his head speechlessly, this Geille Hurt always likes to joke.

"Geely, when will Global Online be officially launched?"

"It's expected to be January 1 next year. ”

Henry calculated, it was already November, and it was just over a month away. Henry and Geely Hurt then discussed some of the specific problems encountered and the way forward.

In the afternoon, Henry's office phone rang, it was a call from Bob Gallaher. For Noah's Ark Company, Henry is a sheep-herding management, only the company's CEO Bob Gallaher, as for the specific details of the company, Henry does not know much. After all this time, there should be good news for the development of web servers.

Henry was a little excited in his heart, and hurriedly answered the phone, and Bob Gallaher's voice came from the other end of the phone, with a hint of excitement!

"Chairman, we have developed a web server !!!"

"Very well!! you guys are doing a great job!" Henry praised, "Well, I'll be right over now, I'm going to see the world's first web server with my own eyes!"

"Okay!"

Henry hung up the phone, then shouted in the direction of Helen's office, "Helen, let's go out now." ”

"Okay, chairman, I'll be right here!"

After more than an hour by car, I arrived at Noah's Ark Company. Bob Gallaher and some of the company's management were already outside to greet Henry.

"Welcome Chairman!"

Henry nodded, and then led by Bob Gallaher, took a tour of the web server in the lab.

This web server is a small computer, and it is much larger than a normal computer. The UNIX system is used, and the processor is Intel's 16-bit processor 8086, and the shape of the server is rack-type, as for the blade server, because the technology has not been overcome, it cannot be used for the time being. Under the pretenses and explanations of the staff, Henry gradually understood the relevant functions of this web server.

First of all, the reliability is greatly enhanced, and the website that uses the web server will not easily collapse; secondly, it is easier to manage the website in the background through the web server; finally, it also has a certain "scalability", such as a web server can not support the huge traffic of the website, and a new web server can be added to divide the pressure!

This server is quite mature and ready to be marketed.

Henry was satisfied, praised everyone on the spot, and then named the server.

"Let's call it Web Ark One!"

Thus, the name of the world's first web server was born, and it was called Web Ark One!!

In the evening, Henry entertained everyone to dinner at the most expensive hotel in the area.

After the web server came out, the first user was the Nicholas Group Company, as the major shareholder of Noah's Ark, the price at which Nicholas purchased the server was naturally the internal price. Bob Gallaher suggested that each web server be sold for $100,000 for $60,000 internally and $50,000. The Nicholas Group of Companies bought forty units in one go. Cisco also bought it, but they needed less and only bought five! (Please help vote......)
