Chapter 985: Is This Profitable?

Yin Jun had time to drink a glass of milk and eat two loaves of bread when the waiter from the hotel walked in and told him that Mr. Tim Berners Lee had called and promised to meet with him, but the meeting was only half an hour later, and the meeting lasted only an hour.

Because Tim Berners Lee had other work to do in the afternoon, the time was tight.

In fact, before coming to Geneva, a few months ago, Yin Jun personally wrote several letters and sent them to Tim Berners Lee, discussing the Internet connection and the hypertext protocol.

When it comes to the part that interests him, Tim Berners Lee also wrote back twice, and the two are already acquainted.

This time, Yin Jun came over at the end of September, and it was Tim Berners Lee who said that he would have some free time in the near future, and if there were any better ideas and thoughts, they could have a good exchange and discussion.

So Yin Jun hurriedly ran over, and then before getting on the plane, he called Tim Berners Lee in advance and told him the hotel where he was staying, hoping that when he was free, he could call, and then the two met and talked.

I didn't expect Tim Berners Lee to meet so quickly, and he made an appointment early in the morning to meet.

In fact, Tim Berners Lee didn't expect that Yin Jun would come so quickly, which made him a little surprised and confused.

But since the words were released, he didn't regret it, so he readily agreed to meet to see what Yin Jun wanted to say.

Yin Jun naturally couldn't delay this opportunity, so he didn't eat anymore, grabbed two loaves of bread and walked outside.

At this time, the boy had long forgotten the French rose he liked very much.

A hundred Sophie Marceau is not as important as the emergence of the World Wide Web!

Seeing this idol admired by thousands of people for the first time, Yin Jun was still a little nervous.

Sitting in the Mercedes-Benz provided by the hotel, heading to the headquarters of CERN, Yin Jun accidentally touched the room card in his trouser pocket.

Oh, I said something different, it turned out to be this room card!

The room card is a very popular way to unlock the hotel access after 40 years, but before 2000, Yin Jun remembers that the general hotel in Huaguo still uses keys to open the door.

Unexpectedly, in 1981, the Hilton Hotel in Geneva, Switzerland began to use key cards.

It seems that when I went to the United States last year, there was no access card there.

It is worthy of being the richest country in the world, and every technology must be the most advanced.

In fact, the sensor door card, using radar radio frequency identification technology, began to be born in the 40s, gradually entered the stage of large-scale experimental verification in the 70s, and began to enter the field of commercial application in the 80s.

In the next 40 years, especially after 2000, all kinds of new technologies have sprung up, which makes people feel that living in this world and living in this era is really a very happy and happy thing.

Of course, here we have to mention the World Wide Web, and it is precisely because of its emergence that there is such a colorful future.

Otherwise, without Jingdong, Taobao, WeChat, and Weibo, the joy of life of Chinese people will be reduced by more than half at once.

Thinking of the task of human history on his shoulders, Yin Jun suddenly felt that this negotiation must have a result.

At the end of 1990, when the World Wide Web appeared, if I could advance this time by three or five years, or even earlier, then my contribution to mankind would be considered great, right?

Thinking about it so wildly, the car had already arrived at the headquarters of CERN.

As a research and development institution jointly funded by more than a dozen countries, the security measures here are very strict.

Yin Jun, who was invited, went through three security checks before he could enter the office experiment area inside.

As for the four bodyguards......

I'm sorry.

I had to wait in the café outside the headquarters.

Yin Jun has little interest in the high-end research equipment in CERN, including the positron collider, which is said to consume a city's electricity for a month, at least millions of dollars.

This is the frontier of the development of human physical science and technology, and it is also a respectable place, but after all, Yin Jun's expertise and profession are not here, so naturally there is no need to know more.

Work hard in what you do best and benefit everyone a lot, this is what Yin Jun should do.

Speaking of which, in the future, when you have money, you can still support the various scientific research institutions in the mainland, those research institutions that spend money like water.

Of course, it can't be some bullshit research project in those universities that sell dog meat on the head of a sheep.

Every year, a lot of money is spent on the state, and as a result, at least two-thirds of it goes into their own pockets, and the group of so-called experts and professors who have developed nothing should all hit the streets.

To be honest, compared with those laboratories in Europe and the United States, as well as experts and professors in universities, their grades are still in the last years of the Qing Dynasty, regardless of character or ability.

Under the guidance of the staff, Yin Jun entered a coffee house in the headquarters.

CERN's headquarters is very large, and it's basically a small-town model, except that the buildings here and there are all kinds of research laboratories.

And the leisurely lifestyle of Europeans has also been brought here, cafes and Western restaurants are everywhere, all of which are free, so that staff, doctors and professors can take a break when they are tired.

This is a way that Yin Jun likes very much.

Because countless facts have proved that just by hard work, it is not necessarily possible to produce any good results, only to give them more respect, let them do it with all their strength in the limited working time, this is the best way to get work efficiency.

So Yin Jun is arranged like this in his own unicorn culture.

Although the two places of Kirin Printing Factory and Kirin Toy Factory are not treated so well, in addition to the high salary, the food tube is enough, which is too much more than other factories.

After only a few minutes of sitting, Yin Jun saw a young man with a typical British appearance walking in from outside.

Unlike the bald man who was more than 20 years later, Tim Berners Lee now has blonde hair and is very handsome.

There weren't many people in the café, so Yin Jun stood up and raised his hand to him, and Tim Berners Lee nodded and walked over.

"Mr. Yin Jun?" he asked.

"Yes, Mr. Li, I'm Yin Jun, it's the first time we've met, it's a pleasure to meet you. Yin Jun stretched out his hand.

Tim Berners Lee smiled, shook his hand, and sat down, "I didn't think you were so young, if I didn't know who you were, I would have thought I was talking at least one of my peers." ”

"Often, it's not a good thing to think too much. Yin Jun shrugged and said, "What to drink, Mr. Li?"

"I'll just drink black coffee, it's rare for you to come, this time I'll please." Tim Berners Lee said, and after ordering coffee, he turned back and said, "Yin Jun, you can just call me Tim." Or call me Tim Lee. ”

"Okay, Tim. Yin Jun said.

After a while, the black coffee was served, and Tim tasted the bitterness without adding any milk or sugar, "The work I'm doing here is interesting, similar to the internet connection I talked to you about." But this kind of large-scale data storage is very difficult at this stage. And all kinds of data transmission in our country require very troublesome procedures to do well.

I think the kind of future development you're talking about is very thoughtful. People can sit next to their computers, connect to each other through the Internet, and you can see the information they give, and they can see the pictures you give. This is the possibility of integrating this hypertext protocol into the network, which I have been exploring. If this problem can really be solved, then this future is believed to be realized soon. ”

Yin Jun nodded as he listened: "This may require some specific channels, or what address to use, you are an expert in this regard." But if you are working like this now, and you are working on research and development at the same time, I am afraid that it will take a very long time. I'm here this time to ask you, do you want us to cooperate?"

Naturally, the boy will not tell him, you invent a browser, so that all nodes have their own URLs, so that you can type these URLs on the browser, and you can implement Vioxx docking.

In fact, this browser was created by Tim nine years later, and it was through this browser that the World Wide Web was truly accessible to thousands of people.

Hearing Yin Jun's proposal, Tim also nodded, and then asked, "We cooperate? Do you want to invest in my research, and then we will share the profits? How much do you think the profits will be?"

He asked lightly, as if he were determining the share, and as if he was greedy for money.

But if Yin Jun really said this, then he would definitely finish drinking this cup of coffee, and the two would be passers-by.

Fortunately, Yin Jun never had such a mind, and he also knew Tim's wishes.

As a result, I also learned that Tim was just testing himself.

Doing the work of the World Wide Web is actually not a very huge project, and he should be able to do it by himself and a few assistants.

So Tim doesn't need any money at all, at most he just pays some labor.

This kind of relatively simple work has to be used to do business, and Tim is definitely unwilling.

He just felt that Yin Jun and himself had good common ideas on the Internet, so he agreed to meet and talk to Yin Jun.

If Yin Jun is such a greedy businessman, and what he said before is just to relax his vigilance and let him serve the capital, then how can Tim still treat him as a friend?
