Chapter 492, I'm the computer room floor, I'm not Mission Impossible!
Although the hard-working employees gave priority to laying fiber optic cables in the office, the basic work had not yet begun, and when Jimmy and Gary were gone, Alice immediately called Posack and asked him to follow him to the 114th floor. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
The construction of a skyscraper hundreds of meters high has always been a century-old project, not to mention that Alice uses it as the ultimate headquarters. If the designer needs to take into account all kinds of extreme weather effects in the building structure, then in the internal planning, of course, she needs to consider the development prospects of the entire consortium.
A whole 632-meter-high skyscraper can accommodate too many units. Cisco, Microsoft, and Intel will all set up offices here, as are DreamWorks, Blackwater International, and even Oscar & Hannah, and the Li family in Hong Kong has long been salivating for stepping into the Americas. As for Alice herself, she is still waiting for the establishment of Google Shenma in the 90s.
After everything is ready, her work mode is naturally to sit on the top of the building, and then issue instructions to the whole building. Therefore, in this case, the priority and importance of the construction of the building area network are naturally ranked at the forefront of all work. After all, if the "Ambrera Capital Investment Company" is the hub of all the affiliated enterprises of the entire emerging consortium, then this entire building is even more equivalent to the brain of this young consortium.
Therefore, regarding the LAN construction of this building, it is really not to be taken lightly. And the most basic way to strengthen this, of course, is to use fiber optic networks at least ten years earlier than the times, regardless of the cost.
The biggest difference between an optical fiber network and an ordinary copper twisted pair is not only the change in transmission rate in quality, but also its ability to keep information confidential. Of course, simply changing the communication medium cannot fundamentally prevent the information intrusion of hackers, it is at most just to avoid the behavior of cutting the line in the corner. Therefore, if you really want to make the "building area network" of Alice Building an impregnable wall, you still need to start with the server room.
Of course, although this building that plagiarized the "Shanghai Tower" is "only" 118 floors, which is much shorter than the 168-story Hafarita Tower, it is still a super skyscraper that reaches into the sky. Although it can't achieve the kind of effect in "Mission Impossible IV", it would be a huge international joke to say that Alice can't spare a floor to dedicate a computer room to the building area network.
Because of the special objective conditions, the order of the internal construction of the Lisi Building is precisely from top to bottom, and the computer room floor is related to the entire building, and even the information transmission and security issues of the entire hub system, of course, have to be placed under the nose of the boss.
"Safety and efficiency are the only two things we strive for, and yes, safety is more important than efficiency. ”
At this time, the two of them wandered into an empty room on this floor, because the work had just begun, and some empty shelves had just been put in here, and the servers, firewalls, and switches and other equipment had not yet been installed.
"In addition, all computer rooms are equipped with voice-activated sensor lights, and sensors are buried under the floor!"
In the previous sentence, Bosak wrote it down in a small notebook, but for the latter sentence, he couldn't be calmer anymore: "Voice-activated lights and ...... Alice, 007 is just a movie after all, you can't be so exaggerated, right?"
"Leonardo, you must trust the intelligence of criminals. Alice stood in front of a glass curtain wall and chuckled: "What level of villain commits what kind of crime, I'm not afraid it won't happen, but once there are really commercial spies who want to come to us to steal information, isn't that the style of 007?"
This was so reasonable that Posack was speechless for a moment, and had to smile wryly and write down this request in his notebook: "Okay, voice-activated lights and vibration sensors, are you going to change the door to a Swiss product too?"
Of course, this is just a complaint, but Alice thinks about it very seriously: "Electronic combination lock...... We can think about this new product. Really, Leon, an Intel CPU, plus a simple access control system. Let's use a normal door to survive first, and I'll let Exeter work out the electronic combination lock. ”
Poor Bosack listened, blinked, and was startled by Alice's sudden concept: "Electronic...... Combination lock? What you just said was, a CPU, plus an access control system?"
"yes, entering the code into the control system and then operating the circuit to open the lock, it's not a particularly complicated thing. Alice shrugged her shoulders and shrugged it relaxedly: "It's just that the current companies that produce door locks haven't thought about using computer technology...... Hey...... Wait a minute. ”
As she spoke, Alice was stunned.
"Yes, electronic password lock!" Then with a snap, Alice slapped her fist and palmed: "This is a blank market, anyway, the technology is not complicated, there is no reason why we don't play with it!"
It seems that he has found a new way to do business again, and with such a small boss, who should worry about his future? Posack thought about it, and wrote down the letters "E" and "D" in his small notebook, after all, this is another level of trade secrets.
"That's it, Leon, you keep busy with yours first, with my office and Cisco's office as the first priority, and let everyone go online first. Don't forget to let the person who delivers the goods pay attention, we want optical fiber interface products, a total of so many private goods, if anyone can send the wrong one, I curse him for not finding a wife in his life!"
With that, Alice swooped out of the room.
"Hey, Alice!" But Bossak immediately burst into a loud voice: "If you want to go online, we need to let AT&T set up the line on the ground floor first, and the work hasn't started yet!"
So, with a bang, Alice stood still in the hallway.
Then, with a wooden face, she turned her head blankly.
“…… Bottom?"
It seems that the little boss is really noble, and Bosak quickly followed, and quickly explained: "Have you forgotten the basic principle? Without the operator's external cables, how can you connect with the WAN? If you don't have the lead on the ground floor of the building, how can you let our computer room here operate?"
was stunned fiercely, and then Alice burst out laughing, raising her head and holding her forehead: "Yes, yes, it's all to blame for this combination lock." So, Leon, you talk to Sandy again and ask her to place an order with the carrier. With Cisco and Microsoft as the first priority, let's lay two fiber dedicated lines. ”
Wow, what a big deal!
Posack has been working at Cisco for a few years, and he certainly knows very well how network operators around the world build their networks. Optical fiber was only invented in the 60s, and its popularity was still pitiful compared to the coaxial cable and twisted pair that were overwhelming around the world at that time. Let the home operator lay two private lines, the cost is ......
But Cisco is about to start its journey into network infrastructure, isn't it?
"And then these two lines will spread out in the CBD of Los Angeles, centered on the Alice Building. After figuring out the relevant links in an instant, Bossak smiled: "And then Intel, and then the whole of Silicon Valley will start to use fiber optic networks on a large scale, right?"
"Yes, that's it!" Alice nodded vigorously, "But it will take at least one to two years, ninety years, ninety-one years, which can be regarded as an incubation period." Optical fiber interface routers, switches, gateways and even firewalls, we have to keep some goods on hand~"
Fiber optic networks began to spread from the Alice Building as the core, and then just in the context of the 90s, Cisco's stock price, NASDAQ's index, and the whole Silicon Valley bamboo shoot field that will face spring rain, the prospect is simply not too good!
In this way, Alice took the elevator and returned to the 115th floor.
The structural planning of this floor is of course different, and the elevator hall is no different from the entrance hall in a luxury apartment, and it is not very hidden. After getting out of the elevator, turning and walking a few steps, you will be greeted by the front entrance of the "Ambrera Capital Investment Company", which occupies the entire floor.
"Monica~"
Bypassing the empty front desk and passing the open space where the gate will be set up, Alice walked inside in a hurry: "What about the Monica people~"
A loud and crisp voice resounded through the empty office area, there is a conference room on the left, which was used after the inauguration ceremony, and there is also an office area on the right, such as when Sophie becomes CFO. And then in front of this big clearing, well, the main gate of the Taihe Hall is there.
"Miss Wang, are you looking for me?" only to hear a creak, the door of the Taihe Hall opened, and the big eunuch holding the dust, and the female secretary who was not holding the folder hurriedly walked out.
"Oops, you've got it. Alice stepped forward with a smile: "The half-finished office building is just speechless, is the telephone line installed?"
Don't look at people who look like a Victoria's Secret supermodel, Monica is not a big vase, and her work level has long been personally proven by her boss. Just like this question, she is quick to react, concise in her words, and impeccable in her logic.
"Nope!"
"Oh!"
One question, one answer, one response, perfectly matched!
After a moment of silence, Monica laughed first: "Who are you in a hurry to contact? ”
"Oh...... It's not that I'm in a hurry, but I just found a blank market. ”
There was really no hurry, so Alice shrugged her shoulders and changed the subject: "It's not too early at this time, why don't we go downstairs and eat something first?"
