Chapter 231: The Storm That Doesn't End the City, A Difficult Road

While staring at Samsung and preparing for the final negotiations with Google, George did not forget that the stock market is now in a relatively flat black hole period, and that the financial market that has entered the second phase of the bubble is a very elusive market in the eyes of most people, but it is like a roller coaster, and no one knows when he will rebound and when he will fall.

But George didn't care, he knew that there was still a nuclear bomb that hadn't exploded, and the publication of the annual report would be when the nuclear bomb was finally detonated.

Sun Microsystems, a super systems company with a market value of $200 billion that almost bought Apple in '96 and stepped on Microsoft, stabbed Microsoft's soft underbelly and knocked Microsoft's soft underbelly down, and began to frantically push the most perfect operating system to the market at this time, and once squeezed Microsoft out of all the market.

In the most difficult time, Microsoft set its sights on the micro-minicomputers that had begun to heat up gradually, and began to gradually abandon the enterprise system, which was occupied by the sun, leaving only a pitiful market that was not even enough to cover the fig leaf.

It turned out that Microsoft had made the right choice, taking advantage of the Internet, and for every laptop and desktop computer sold, Microsoft would reap a share of revenue, even if it was too different from the profits of enterprise systems.

The enterprise system is made up of a fixed number, not all companies need such a perfect expensive system, when the market reaches a certain degree and begins to be saturated, the sun micro company will find their mistakes, at this time Microsoft seized the opportunity, in one fell swoop once pressed on the body of the behemoth to the foot of the dead, did not give him any chance to turn over, let him disappear.

A behemoth with a market value of 200 billion US dollars, it took 12 years from its establishment to its peak, and it only took one year to collapse, Microsoft became the ultimate winner, and those investment institutions that learned the financial reports of Sun Micro Company in advance have also become vested interests.

The winner is king, this is the truth that time cannot be extinguished.

What George has to do now is to seize the opportunity, in the calm period that no one dares to touch, in the hard money, as for the later stage of the crisis, it will be adjusted temporarily, the market is changing rapidly, not that you are ready now to be able to make a lot of money, sometimes the market will give you a very perfect joke when you think it is foolproof, so that you can really feel a heaven to hell with super exciting incomparable pleasure.

George took out some notepads that he had recorded for the first time when he was in Xiangjiang that only he could understand in the safe, took out a fountain pen from the pen holder, and began to write and draw in the blank space.

He estimated the market's reaction through Sun Micro, but after going back and forth a few times, George reluctantly put down the pen in his hand, put a few pieces of typing paper in front of him that had been smeared without any blank space into the shredder, looked at the confetti that had become noodles, and still took out a small copper basin under the bookshelf, put all the confetti that became noodles into it, and lit it with a lighter.

After the flame was extinguished, George sat back in his chair, frowning, looking at the record of some of the things that would happen in front of him, he was not sure if the world would continue to follow the original trajectory after he crossed the bar, but he had to make himself invincible before he changed.

There is no victorious general in the world, and he is no exception, even if there is a prophet for decades to come, he can't guarantee that he will capture what he wants as perfectly every time as he does now.

Only when he is truly immersed in the scene, he knows that many things are not as simple as he thinks.

The Internet is a virgin territory reserved for him to have some time to prepare and encroach on, and when those people react, his advantage will not exist.

He doesn't think that if he knows what he's going to do, he'll think that the companies that will shine in the future will accept his investment and make him one of them.

Gently closing the notepad, looking at the introduction of Sun Microsystems displayed on the computer and Coase, who was also the founder of Netscape Browser Vino, George smiled softly.

This arrogant guy may never know that Google, which he doesn't care about at this time, will smash him to pieces in the future, leaving him forever from the front line and growing into a venture capital giant.

This may be because the East is not bright and the West is bright, after all, all the companies he created have been strangled by others, but his investment road has been smooth sailing.

From the Internet channel telecommunications infrastructure, fiber optic networks and a series of auxiliary software, he started another brilliant life.

At the same time, George knew that it was this Vinod Khosla, an Indian who turned Silicon Valley into the Silicon Valley of Indians through his own efforts, and vigorously cultivated Indians here, so that they could successfully oust the Chinese who only knew how to study technology from the leadership, and let them go to the direction they were best at so as to replace them, so as to defeat the first Chinese people to rise in another direction.

Even if he knew that there was nothing he could do, this was the direction of the general trend, and unless they could compete, no matter how much he did, it would be useless.

Gently close the web page, touch the cigarette in his hand on the desk, the flame of the "snap" lighter appeared in front of him, and the head holding the cigarette gently leaned forward and took a deep breath.

George's brain was telling that in addition to Sun Microsystems, the network fiber investment he had thought about was also on the agenda.

Vinod Cosla and John Doerr, two venture capital giants, have already extended their tentacles into network fiber optics and telecom base stations in advance, and he can't be too far behind.

If they are far behind, they will slow down step by step, such investment giants with a unique vision can not be measured by common sense, they will take the lead when many companies are still very weak, and exchange for dozens of times hundreds of times the benefits that will be brought once they succeed.

On the road to incubation, even if it fails many times, only a few times, the benefits are not comparable to a small investment.

Of course, even if he does nothing, he only relies on Amazon, PayPal and eBay, which have now successfully invested and occupies the majority of the shares, as long as it is exposed at some point in the future, he will be called a god by the media, which he can predict.

But his heart changed after digging the first pot of gold in the bubble crisis, he originally just thought that he could become a super-rich man, but when facing the Watt family, which he did not agree with in his heart, he felt weak.

He needs to change this situation, and change cannot be successful overnight, which requires continuous precipitation and accumulation.

"Hiss"

Before he knew it, the smoke burned to the end, waking him up from his contemplation, and making him start to think seriously about the path he was going to take, and put it into practice.
