006 BcakRub Project with Search Engine
When Eric brought up the news of Larry Page and Sergey Brin to Li Feng, Li Feng couldn't help but feel a burst of ecstasy in his heart.
Well, as long as it is a future generation, who doesn't know what these two bigwigs mean, after Li Feng accidentally discovered these two people in Feixun before, he personally reminded Eric of the research results of the two.
Naturally, Li Feng's words are to hope that the company can become the top company in the Internet field, and it needs those technologies from all aspects of the Internet field, which naturally includes the research of the two people, but it also fooled Eric Schmidt, after all, there is nothing wrong with developing the company's technical reserves.
In my previous life, I had always heard that the two bigwigs planned to sell Google to Yahoo, and it was said that the offer was only 1 million US dollars, but Yang Zhiyuan refused, and finally the two bigwigs started it themselves, and finally achieved one of the synonyms of future high-tech companies - the great Google.
Similarly, since I thought of the future Google, I naturally thought of the future domestic Du Niang, it seems that the founder at this time is working on the side of the US imperialists, Li Feng also thought about it.
In short, Li Feng suddenly found that another super-super super gold mine appeared in front of his eyes, and then Li Feng didn't have the heart to think about the issue of flying news, his mind was full of thoughts about the future of Google, and his heart had already flown to Stanford.
……
"Boss, welcome to you!"
When Li Feng and his entourage of four people came to Stanford in a low-key manner, under the student apartment building of Larry and Brin, the two future Internet tycoons greeted Li Feng with a respectful face.
"Larry, Brin, you two don't need to call me boss, you're just part-time, and I've been hearing Eric say that you two have helped the company a lot, and I want to thank you guys, just call me John. Looking at the future boss who was obviously dressed up and a little nervous, Li Feng couldn't help but speak.
In fact, the two future bigwigs at this time are not the world-famous Internet elites in the future, and at this time the two are just students in the laboratory or bedroom every day, typing keyboards and munching on hamburgers.
In the eyes of the two, Li Feng's arrival this time is the key to determining whether the next research of the two can be faster and smoother, and the two of them can't help but be a little nervous.
To be honest, technical research is inseparable from financial support, and if the two of them could get enough financial support in the early days, Google would definitely be able to appear early, and it would not have been until 98 years later to officially launch.
"We are also very satisfied with being able to work at Feixun, in short, thank you for your affirmative support for our research, let's go up and have a look. Larry Page deserved to be the later Google bigwig, and after calming down, he began to talk and laugh with Li Feng and his party.
……
When I got to their school student apartment upstairs, it was similar to Yahoo's before, and the computers and servers in it were buzzing, and it seemed to be cleaned up, but the overall feeling was still quite messy.
Larry and Brin then went straight to the point of talking about their research project called 'BackRub'.
Although Li Feng doesn't know much about professional knowledge, he also knows that when this project is not really completed now, the history of his previous life tells him that it seems that this thing will not be really completed until 98 years later.
Now, after almost 1 year of research, the two have basically established a general direction and plan, but if it is only two people who do it themselves, according to the two of them, it may take a long time, but if there is support from someone and some classmates at Stanford to help them do it, the speed will be much faster.
In the original history, the two of them quietly studied on their own, but they didn't know what they thought in this life, but the two of them directly proposed to Eric, hoping to get the help of Feixun to speed up the progress of patent development.
Li Feng didn't know, it was because of Li Feng, Li Feng had said in Feixun that the company's employees are welcome to independently invent and create new technologies, and if the technology can be approved by the company's technical department, Feixun will support them.
Naturally, Li Feng and Feixun are not slogans, there are already some technicians in the company who have studied some small technologies and have been recognized by the company, and even received financial rewards, etc., and have been rewarded enough.
It was under such circumstances that Larry and Brin formally asked Eric Schmidt for help after determining their research direction and plan, after all, they were barely employees of Feixun, although they were part-time.
……
After that, the two also talked about the current situation of search engines on the Internet, and also made Li Feng understand what is going on with today's search engines.
One of them, the classification search represented by Yahoo, through manual means to include the website through categories, is not strictly speaking, this is not a real Internet search, more like a URL navigation in later generations.
The second is a real search engine company represented by InfoSeek, but the search accuracy and efficiency at this time are too low, and it is based on text search.
Searchcom is now the default search for Netscape Browser, which has led to Search's leading position in the Internet search space today.
Li Feng, who came from later generations, knew that Google later followed this path, but at that time, Google became the default search for Yahoo websites, and it can be said that the early Yahoo websites contributed to the development of Google.
At the same time, since the search engine was mentioned, Li Feng naturally thought of Google and Du Niang, and thought of Du Niang, and naturally its founder also entered Li Feng's heart.
According to the calculation of time, Robin Lee should still be working as his financial information system designer in the online edition of the Wall Street Journal, to put it bluntly, he is a high-level 'code farmer'.
The only thing Li Feng knows is that the algorithm technology of Google and Baidu is beyond the previous level, which is a new generation of search technology, otherwise, the two companies in the future will not be so successful.
……
"Larry, I'm very interested in the new generation of search technology you're researching, what kind of support do you need?" Li Feng said to the two with a smile after listening to the two's tirade about search engines.
"BOSS, we just want your financial support to become a project team, just like in Flycom. Larry quickly replied, and Brynn, who was beside him, nodded in agreement.
At this time, the two really didn't have the idea of the Google boss in the future, otherwise there would be no news that the two of them wanted to sell to Yahoo with Google's patents.
Looking at the appearance of the two, Li Feng laughed in his heart, and couldn't help but have a bad taste in his heart. At this time, Li Feng didn't want to think that compared with Larry and Bryn, the two school students, he was really a 'big man'.
"Larry, you also know the situation of Feixun, so let's do it, I can buy your BackRub project on behalf of the company, but I also have conditions:
The first is that you two can't let go, and the two of you are the leaders of the project team, and if the two of you leave the project team or even the company in the future, you can't work in related industries.
If you two agree, I'll let Eric negotiate with you personally, and I'll get him to support you, both financially and humanly.
Naturally, I will not let you suffer, I will give the two of you 20% of the shares in this project in the future, as for how to divide, the two of you will discuss it yourself, if the future can really succeed, it can also ensure your interests. ”
Thinking that the two had the idea of selling their patents to Yahoo in the future, Li Feng couldn't help but think about the idea of directly co-opting the two. What I think in my heart is that the two of them are firmly tied to their chariots and create hundreds of billions of Google's wealth for themselves in the future, which is where the value of the two of them lies in this life.
Similarly, for giving 20% of the shares to the two, Li Feng is not distressed at all, talent is the key, and the future Google troika is already in hand, which is the most important thing.
……
After listening to Li Feng's words, the two agreed after a little consideration. At this time, the two of them really didn't want to start a business directly, but they were more concerned about the progress and development of the project.
