Chapter 0957 The Tech Stock Frenzy Officially Begins

……

The birthday banquet of Tang Tycoon, the richest man in Tang, is naturally rich and exciting, and every guest present, whether with a pragmatic purpose or an entertainment purpose, has to praise it from the bottom of his heart - it's not in vain, it's worth it!

Garry Kimovich Kasparov was no exception, and even secretly rejoiced, and Gaine unexpectedly got the opportunity to "answer questions". Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 ο½‰ο½Žfo

It turned out that in the middle of the banquet, Jin Ming, who was led by the butler, found him and introduced himself: "Hello, Mr. Kasparov, I am Albert, the son of Tang. ”

Seeing that the young man in front of him, who was respectfully sent by the housekeeper, was the child of the master's family, how could Garry Kimovich Kasparov be lazy, and hurriedly responded seriously: "Hello, Albert. ”

Jin Ming continued as a young man: "I have admired you as a world chess champion for a long time - can you give me an autograph? ”

Garry Kimovich Kasparov, who was not surprised, was prepared, took the pen on the spot, and left his name in the other party's notebook.

Garry Kimovich Kasparov thought that after fulfilling this habitual wish, the matter would be finished, but the boy continued to plead: "Mr. Kasparov, my brother admires your chess skills very much, and I wonder if you can take the time to teach you a game." ”

As soon as he heard this, Garry Kimovich Kasparov was happy.

To be honest, he has been the world chess champion for almost a decade, what strange fans haven't seen? But like the scene in front of him, when the young man sent a war book from the 800 people, it was really the first time he had encountered it.

In this regard, Garry Kimovich Kasparov did not have any disgust, because the son of the richest man should not be underestimated, and the second he could not help but recall his youthful pride.

What's more, it's also a great opportunity to socialize.

"How old is your brother?" Garry Kimovich Kasparov asked curiously, after making a gesture of please.

"10 years old." Jin Ming replied as he invited Garry Kimovich Kasparov to an activity room, pointed to Jin Nian and Jin Fang sitting next to the chessboard, and introduced: "They are my younger brothers, Oscar, Erick. ”

Seeing that it was a pair of twins, Garry Kimovich Kasparov was very amused, but when his eyes turned to the chessboard, he couldn't help but be slightly stunned - it was actually his own chess game against the artificial intelligence "Athena" today.

At the same time, Jin Nian and Jin Fang also widened their eyes and carefully looked at the chess world champion who had been studied by his brother for a long time.

You must know that in the chess skills of "Athena", there are their credits - Jin Nian and Jin Fang are responsible for analyzing the logic of the chess path; Jinjia and Jinyan are responsible for converting the program code; Jinying, Jinjie is responsible for project management; The elderly are responsible for logistics; As for the younger ones, they are in charge of watching the excitement.

With the intuition of galloping in the chess world for many years, Gary Kimovich Kasparov immediately secretly determined that the twin brothers in front of him wanted to "teach" a game, and it would not be a child's trick.

"Then let's get started." There is still a game tomorrow, and Garry Kimovich Kasparov, who doesn't want to waste too much time, opened his mouth straight to the point, "Which of you do you need me to let me?" ”

"Not necessarily." Jin Nian and Jin Fang said in unison: "As long as you allow the two of us to fight against you together, it's enough." ”

Seeing that the twin brothers looked like "brothers in battle, father and son soldiers in battle", Garry Kimovich Kasparov found it even more interesting, so he reminded, "That's fine, but you are sure that you will not quarrel because of disagreements." ”

"We have our own way of resolving our differences." Jin Nian and Jin Fang's eyes flashed with cunning, and they sat opposite Garry Kimovich Kasparov across the chessboard.

Garry Kimovich Kasparov forced a smile and asked again: "Then, you take the lead in white?" ”

Jin Nian and Jin Fang replied in a general's style: "We don't take advantage of so much - you take the lead in white!" ”

"It's fine." Garry Kimovich Kasparov reached out and decided to have an autumn breeze to sweep away the leaves and see what the twins would have fun with.

It was only after a dozen or so moves that Garry Kimovich Kasparov couldn't help but be amazed - how similar the feeling of this kind of battle was to the daytime against the artificial intelligence "Athena"! Could it be that they are also members of the project at a young age?

Nearly forty moves into the game, there was a clear disagreement between Jin Nian and Jin Fang, and their solution was so simple and effective that it was unbearable to laugh - directly decide who to listen to.

As the possibility of a draw grew, Jin Nian's opinion prevailed, and sometimes, he simply didn't have to choose a rock-paper-scissors choice.

After the real draw, Garry Kimovich Kasparov felt that his whole person was not good - the psychological gap, for a while, it was difficult to adjust.

Although Gary Kimovich Kasparov didn't really ask "Athena" if there was a share of the twins in the chess artificial intelligence logic, he had already made a positive judgment in his heart.

……

The next day, in the fourth game of the man-machine battle, White was replaced by Garry Kimovich Kasparov, and 'Athena' became Black.

As a result, White did not perform well, and when he reached nearly 50 steps, he raised the flag on Black, which immediately caused the media to cry out in real surprise.

Originally, today's major news should be that the richest man announced that he would donate $10 billion to the Shennong Foundation; What I didn't expect was that with 6 games left and 2 games left, the computer artificial intelligence took the lead with a score of 2:1!

This time, Athena's golden phrase is, "Learning can make people improve, and people are the best example of this." ”

Garry Kimovich Kasparov, who tasted the meaning, responded with a wry smile, "It seems that the powerful computer computing power, coupled with the careful study of my chess moves, is indeed powerful. ”

"But then again, isn't there still two more plates - 'Athena' surprised me, and when the time comes, I can surprise 'Athena' in turn."

……

The next day, Friday, August 11, the fifth game of the man-machine battle.

Re-become "Athena" on White's side, gaining the right to fire; Garry Kimovich Kasparov began to change his style of play and set traps on the ground – and in the end, Black pulled one back and the overall score was back on the starting line.

The golden phrase given by "Athena" is, "The master is so cunning! ”

Garry Kimovich Kasparov replied with a serious face, "'Athena' is naughty! ”

……

On Saturday, August 12, the last game of the man-machine battle.

The results of who wins and who loses between humans and computers are released on this rest day, and the number of viewers who pay attention to it has increased dramatically!

Gary Kimovich Kasparov started the game with a white game, and his style of chess obviously changed again, which can be called a deep routine everywhere; "Athena" did not show weakness and repeatedly did incredible things.

The two sides fell into a bitter battle, fought more than 70 steps, and the battle ended in a draw.

The golden sentence given by "Athena" is, "I will continue to practice when I go back!" ”

Garry Kimovich Kasparov replied with a good time, "Looking forward to the chance to play again, preferably the same AI team." ”

……

In this man-machine war, "Athena" demonstrated the powerful computing power of computers; Garry Kimovich Kasparov demonstrates human creativity and emotional intelligence; While the audience was hooked, there was no excessive panic about the future of technology.

As for the fate of the warring parties, "Athena" returned to her cave house, the laboratory, and continued to cultivate; Garry Kimovich Kasparov returned with EA's sponsorship contract and a partnership agreement between himself and EA's chess internet battle platform – and everyone was happy.

Of course, there are some murmurs in public opinion -- such a serious intellectual contest between humans and computers is too entertaining, and there is a suspicion that there is no motive.

However, this argument has no place, and it is directly drowned out by the technology frenzy set off by the listing of Zheru Software, which is responsible for the design and implementation of the "Athena" artificial intelligence program.

……

Time does not shift according to human will, and continues to move forward according to its own rules, and it comes to August 15, the day before Zheru Software Company is listed on the NASDAQ.

Half a century ago today, the Broadcasting Association broadcast the "Edict of the End of the War" read by Emperor Showa, announcing the acceptance of the Potsdam Proclamation and the unconditional surrender to the Allies.

To this end, various events were held around the world - the fiftieth anniversary of the end of the Second World War reached a new high~.

The political ~ political atmosphere at this historical moment can be called "harmonious", because compared with the background of an economic bull ten years ago, when Prime Minister Yasuhiro Nakasone officially visited the Yasushi ~ country ~ shrine for the first time, and now the economy has fallen into the "lost era" of the book, it is much more modest.

Prime Minister Tomiichi Murayama issued a statement in which he officially acknowledged that through colonial rule and aggression, he had caused great harm and suffering to the people of many countries, especially Asian countries.

For some operations in this atmosphere, Mr. The richest man is quite satisfied.

For example, the independent investment film "The Fall of Xiangjiang", although it is not a big hit, but in Xiangjiang, which is now shrouded in drunken dreams and death, it still attracted the attention of a considerable number of people, and then triggered painstaking thinking worthy of this piece.

Another example is that "The Wind Whisperer" has received a good response, without the proliferation of bullshit comments such as "war clichΓ©s" - Wu Yusen, a Chinese director, can be regarded as having a real foothold in Hollywood.

It must be pointed out that this Wu's signature style has indeed won a group of fans in the United States.

Naturally, Wu Yusen is also busy working on the next work.

……

On Wednesday, August 16, 1995, Tang Huan, who had already arrived in New York, began to prepare to witness the listing of Zheru Software on the NASDAQ.

The turmoil over the New York Stock Exchange's digging of the NASDAQ wall that started last year has led to a large number of companies, including Seagate, a leading manufacturer in the field of hard disks, delisting from the NASDAQ and defecting to the New York Stock Exchange.

In this context, in order to compete for Zheru Software, the New York Stock Exchange and the Nasdaq almost grabbed the red eye.

What kind of existence is Zheru Software Company, which was spun off from Zheru?

In terms of annual sales, Zheru Software is an industry giant with $11.636 billion.

In the end, the NASDAQ, which made positive changes in its operations, won the heart of Zheru Software Company, the daughter of the emperor who did not worry about marrying.

The reason why the richest man made this choice is mainly based on the fact that there is almost no doubt that the Dow Jones Industrial Average has hit the 5,000-point level in history this year, and that the concept of technology stocks is getting hotter and hotter, and that the NASDAQ is the most typical multi-market maker trading system compared to the specialized dealer system adopted by the New York Stock Exchange, and thus has an inherent advantage in the securities market.

One of the main reasons why the NASDAQ has been criticized and even abandoned by listed companies is that the competitor New York Stock Exchange has taken great pains to help customers increase their popularity, such as buying a large page in the "New York Times" to advertise and directly printing the names of 300 listed companies, while the NASDAQ seems lazy and even arrogant.

Of course, Zheru Software Company cannot lack popularity, and how to choose the most favorable stock price in the bull market is the first consideration.

Tang Huan, the largest individual shareholder, holds only 22% of the shares, 25% of the Zheru Group, and the first batch is sold to the public 25%, and the remaining part is divided among all parties, and the issue price is only 9.8 US dollars.

There is no need to be polite, the richest man rang today's bell without giving up.

Zheru Software Company, which has touched the nerves of all parties, was officially listed.

In an instant, the stock price doubled! Double it again!

Market capitalization - $18 billion! $20 billion! $30 billion! $40 billion! $50 billion......

The Dow Jones Industrial Average has hit an unprecedented 5,000 points!

What is this concept?

This means that the Dow Jones Industrial Average has rebalanced its sampled constituents, and the S&P 500 has added a new face to the top 10 heavyweights.

In other words, among the 10 companies with the highest market capitalization in the world, there are two - Fang Yuan and Zheru Software, both of which were created by Tang IT, the richest man in Tang!

Wall Street, which had long expected the hot market, was still taken aback by the frenzy of technology stocks, and couldn't help but sing the praises passionately.

……

Zheru Software is the most successful spin-off in history!

Zheru Software has raised the largest funding round in history - more than $4 billion!

Don is God's favorite - he just donated $10 billion, and his net worth has increased instead of decreasing!
