Ted Turner's wedding was the second time Tang Huan attended such an event this year after Steve Jobs'.

After finishing his work, the richest man returned to Cupertino in Silicon Valley to meet with visiting Al Gore and other congressmen.

Although Al Gore is a legislator representing Tennessee, he is also a member of the Congressional Committee on Science and Technology, and this is the reason why he came to Silicon Valley to do so.

Al Gore came from a family of politicians, and his father, Gore Sr., who represented Tennessee as a U.S. representative from 1939 to 1953 and a U.S. senator from 1953 to 1971, naturally lived in Washington, D.C., the center of politics~.

Naturally, when Al Gore grew up, he chose to follow his father's business - enter Harvard University and study politics ~ governance, paving the way for his future political ~ governance career.

Al Gore graduated from Harvard University in 1969. Just in time for the Vietnam War, he enlisted in the army in the same year and once entered the Vietnamese battlefield as an army reporter.

After returning from the battlefield, Al Gore attended Vanderbilt University's School of Divinity and Law, where he was awarded a Rockefeller Foundation Scholarship.

At the age of 28, Al Gore joined the U.S. Congress, serving as a member of the House of Representatives from 1977 to 1985 and as a Senator since 1985.

In addition, Al Gore participated in the 1988 presidential election in the Democratic~Prop primary. When he ran for office, he won the presidential nomination in the southern United States on the basis of his youngest candidate, who was only 40 years old and centrist. Although he lost the primary, he received 13.68% of the vote, placing him third out of five candidates.

Therefore, Al Gore, who has a bright resume, is definitely a veritable Washington elite, and Tang Huan naturally attaches great importance to the inspection led by him, not to mention that the other party is preparing to submit to the US Congress a very interesting bill "the_high_performance_puting_act_of_1991" closely related to the IT industry - the "High Performance Computing Act of 1991", that is, HPCA.

In the spacious conference room, Al Gore spoke with great interest about his motivation for drafting the High Performance Computing Act of 1991, "a report to Congress presented to Congress in 1988 by Leonardo Clellock, a professor of computer science at the Henry Samueli School of Engineering and Applied Science at UCLA. It made me realize the importance of the Internet, which is equivalent to the highway of the information world. ”

Leonardo Clairlock, one of the key developers of ARPA, the prototype of today's Internet, is a pioneer of the Internet, and his report is naturally so heavy that politicians are eager to catch it.

Tang Huan, who also expressed his admiration for the computer scientist, noticed that Al Gore repeatedly used the word "information_superhighway" in his conversation - "information superhighway".

Realistically speaking, this concept is not new, and it has been around for at least a decade in various academic discussions, but it is inevitably rare to be repeatedly quoted by a politician.

So, Tang Huan deliberately extracted the concept of "information superhighway" as a separate topic, and tentatively discussed: "Although Mr. Senator is not a professional IT person, his views are very clever. The roadbed of the information superhighway used to be a telecommunications network, but now it has become a computer Internet, on which more diverse forms of data can be transmitted and more flexible services can be provided, which has incalculable value. ”

Al Gore, who was scratched in the itch, laughed heartily, "The World Wide Web advocated by Tang has now become a major trend in the development of the Internet. We are here to get a closer look at the latest achievements to improve the High Performance Computing Act of 1991. ”

From the perspective of the richest man, the High Performance Computing Act of 1991 is not only the political achievement of Al Gore and others, but also a glittering business opportunity, once passed by Congress, it will receive tens of billions of dollars in infrastructure allocation, with unprecedented efforts to promote the development of the entire IT industry, and of course, as a beneficiary, must actively cooperate.

So Tang Huan replied cheerfully and confidently: "I guarantee that the results that Mr. Councilor has seen are absolutely up-to-date, because they will not be introduced to the public until the DEX Las Vegas Autumn Show later." ”

"I've long been yearning for the Zheru R&D Center, which is as prestigious as Bell Labs." Al Gore, who couldn't wait, urged in a tactful way.

The richest man laughed and became a guide himself.

In order to deepen the immediate impression of the visit, the first demonstration of the results was the choice of Fast Ethernet, which has just been released.

Tang Huan said: "At this stage, Ethernet has surpassed IBM's token ring network and become the most widely used technical solution for local area networks, and the mainstream standard is 10Mbps Ethernet developed in the early 1980s; We built on this with Fast Ethernet, which speeds up the network by 10 times to 100Mbps and supports both twisted pair and multimode fiber. ”

After a general introduction, Tang Huan brought these technical laymen to the computer, and through the application of the World Wide Web, let them understand what it is like to use Ethernet at a speed of 100Mbps.

The following is the anti-D part, which will be updated tomorrow morning, so let's ignore it.

……

It can be seen that the taste of the owners of luxury houses is very picky, and in order to achieve the ideal combination of East and West, the designers can be said to have worked hard.

Of course, the concept of environmental protection that Mr. the richest man has been striving for for a long time must also be reflected. Solar energy, drainage, garbage disposal, greening, and other aspects are said to have received satisfactory evaluations of "harmony between nature and man".

Since it has been hyped by the media as the world's number one high-tech luxury house, high-tech is undoubtedly the biggest feature. Many of the R&D achievements of Silicon Valley leaders will be applied and equipped into a future home that can only be found in science fiction movies.

Judging from the fragmentary revelations, the entire mansion will be filled with all kinds of sensors, bringing all environmental changes through the network, especially the wireless network, to the control center - the owner only needs a remote control in his hand, and everything can be controlled.

In addition, it would not be surprising if there were robots serving tea and water, cleaning and security, and so on.

Although the media reports on this mansion, except for the confirmation of the cost of 200 million US dollars, are somewhat unreliable in other aspects, the gossip is still happy to discuss, and even create rumors that there are more than 100 bedrooms alone, the purpose is naturally to settle those women who have a rich relationship with Tang Shou.

Seeing that the hype of the world's first high-tech mansion is about to be taken crookedly, it will go straight to the direction of the world's first absurd and unjustified luxury palace.

Fortunately, at this time, a person jumped out to steal the limelight, so that everyone's attention was unconsciously diverted.

With its near-exclusive coverage of the Gulf War, CNN skyrocketed to become an internationally renowned media outlet with global reach.

As the boss, Ted Turner's scenery goes without saying. But he didn't seem to be satisfied with this, and then made a big move, that is, to get married, and the object was naturally the two-time Oscar-winning actress - Jane Fonda.

Speaking of which, these two are not married for the first time, they are both entering the marriage hall for the third time, but celebrities, every move attracts attention.

For the weddings of people such as Tom Cruise, the richest man can be "courteous", but Ted Turner's connections at this level must not be so "slack".

Shortly after the two met, Tang Huan frowned slightly and asked, "Did CNN make a mistake when it broadcast the news about Rodney King, a black man, being beaten by a white police officer?" ”

Ted Turner replied annoyedly: "The bastards of KTLA, a local TV station in Los Angeles, cut the 80-second tape into less than 70 seconds for the sake of ratings, omitting the key footage of Rodney King pounced on the police, and then gave it to CNN, and then broadcast it to news programs on various TV stations across the United States." ”

They are talking about Rodney King, a black man born in Sacramento, California, in 1965, who was sentenced to probation in 1987 for domestic violence. The year before last, he was sentenced to 2 years in prison for robbery for robbing a convenience store of $200 with a tire removal tool and injuring the clerk; However, due to his good behaviour in prison, he was released on bail on December 27 last year, and one of the conditions for serving his sentence outside of prison was that he could not drink alcohol.

Sadly, Rodney King broke his ring - on the night of March 3 this year, while on parole, he watched a baseball game at a friend's house in Los Angeles and drank three large bottles of strong gin; After the race, he and two other black friends, a total of three, drove west on Highway 210 in the same car.

The next scene, as you can imagine, is a realistic version of the popular video game Need for Speed.

Rodney King's car exceeded the speed limit on the highway, exceeded 177 kilometers per hour, ran several red lights, and nearly caused a traffic accident; It wasn't until 0:45 p.m. that they were chased and intercepted by three Los Angeles Police Department police cars and one police helicopter and parked in front of an entertainment venue.

At the police's request to "get out of the vehicle and lie face down on the ground as a felon," Rodney King's two friends did so and were unharmed, but Rodney King himself slowly exited the vehicle, wiggling his ass and making insulting gestures to Melanie, the female police officer present.

Then the all-out parade to subdue the super-strong man was staged - four Los Angeles police officers began to approach Rodney King, and one of them tried to press his knee against his back, only to be thrown away; The police then used stun guns and metal batons.

It has to be said that Rodney King, who is 1.9 meters tall, is really good at fighting, and the police swung a total of 56 batons, 33 of which were hit, before he begged for mercy and was handcuffed, handed over to an ambulance, and sent to the hospital for first aid.

In this scene, from the time Rodney King gets up and pounces on the police officer after being knocked down by electric shock for the second time, to the end of the attack, George Hallerdy, a nearby resident, is filmed on camera from his apartment for about 81 seconds and then handed over to the television station.

The problem ensued, and in order to attract attention, KTLA, the first television station to get the tape, made a sensational editing and spread it through CNN.

The issue of racial discrimination in the United States is world-renowned, and CNN's current political influence is not trivial, causing an uproar as soon as the news was broadcast.

The current outcome is that at the trial, Rodney King himself did not testify under oath on issues such as drunk driving and speeding, refusing to stop, etc.; Charges against him for speeding arrest and other charges were dropped; And on March 15 of this year, four police officers were indicted for excessive violence against Rodney King; Rodney King and his lawyer are seeking $56 million in damages, or $1 million for one baton.

According to the process, the case will not be tried until next year.

The reason why Tang Huan paid special attention to this matter is because in his memory, this was the trigger for the 1992 Los Angeles riots.

The richest man is a businessman with many investments in California, and when there is a mess of smashing and looting, the most unlucky ones are often minorities like him.

Ted Turner continued: "It wasn't until three weeks later that CNN headquarters didn't know that the video was a cut and I had them add the cuts. ”

Clearly, Ted Turner was only annoyed that he had been fooled, and that he had paid very little attention to the pernicious impact of the news event on fanning the flames.

Tang Huan emphasized gloomily: "But influential media outlets such as ABC, NBC, and CBS are still quoting the abridged version of the video. ”

"For the sake of ratings, the media industry is now this unspoken rule. Moreover, everyone is also happy to watch such exciting news. Ted Turner shrugged, "There's nothing I can do, CNN has done its best to make amends in time." ”

Tang Huan nodded helplessly, and he had to rely on his own strength to prevent it. (To be continued.) )
