As a "wall-riding faction", Mr. The richest man naturally supports politicians who can take care of their own interests to come to power, rather than considering what party position.

I have to say that Jerry Brown, an old friend, will really pick the opportunity, not only taking the opportunity to run for the governor of California for the people~ main party, pulling in Austrian aid, but also helping the richest man with the best of both worlds.

After all, he is also afraid that California, the base camp, will make a 180-degree turn in the attitude of the Zheru Software Company monopoly case because of the change of governor.

At this time, a gubernatorial candidate who has already taken a stand will undoubtedly save a lot of suspicion.

Another thing that made Tang Huan feel relieved was that David Boyce had a good way to postpone the trial date of the monopoly case between the United States of America and Zheru Software, so as to avoid the embarrassment of being busy with lawsuits while the Zheru Spring Developers Conference was being held lively.

Every year, the Zheru Spring Developer Conference is very important to the industry, and this year has another special significance for the development of the Internet.

In his speech at the opening ceremony, Gain, Tang IT, put forward a further concept of Web 2.0 compared to the World Wide Web, which was officially World_Wide_Web introduced to the Internet in 1990.

"The magnificence of the current development of the World Wide Web is obvious to all! Exciting new apps and websites are popping up at an astonishing rate. ”

"I wonder if you will still be as curious as you were in previous years -- how many websites and pages are there on the World Wide Web?"

Speaking of this, Mr. The richest man shrugged his shoulders, "This answer, I who was praised as omniscient, now I don't know." If an investor had to force me to come up with a statement, I would have to tell him that there are hundreds of millions of pages on the World Wide Web, and so many users have to use the new tool of 'search engines' to retrieve what they want from the exploding sea of information. ”

In the midst of laughter, Tang IT waved his hand, "At this year's Zheru Developer Conference, 'search engine' will be a very heavy topic, and there will be a special time for discussion, so we are still talking about these hundreds of millions of World Wide Web pages. ”

The richest man looked around the audience and asked seriously, "Do you know where these hundreds of millions of World Wide Web pages came from?" ”

There was a burst of even more lively laughter from the audience, and they all responded - this is not to be asked, it is made by programmers and artists.

Tang Huan, who walked to the side of the stage and interacted with everyone, solemnly pointed to a young man in his twenties in the front row, "You didn't smile, it's good!" Would you like to answer? ”

"I'm Evan Williams of O'Reilly Media." This person took advantage of this great opportunity very cleverly, first made a general announcement and introduced himself, and then replied with the same earnestness: "I think the reason why Tang asked this question must be full of deep meaning, but I can only think now that these pages are all made by websites. ”

"Thank you." The richest man smiled and nodded, "Actually, what I want to confirm with you is this." ”

In other words, the current application model of the Web is as follows: the website acts as a content producer and produces web pages; The user, as a consumer, obtains information through the browser. ”

At this time, Tang Huan, who had returned to the center of the stage, began to release his personal charm, "Everyone knows that the personal computer industrial revolution has broken the pattern of monopoly of computer use by state machines and large enterprises, so that everyone can now use the computer, a tool that embodies the crystallization of countless human wisdom. ”

"So, what about the World Wide Web, which almost everyone knows about today?"

"My view is that the World Wide Web has further popularized this precious freedom ~ freedom and equality, breaking the traditional information barriers, so that every ordinary person can freely~ freely obtain knowledge without being limited by objective conditions."

"However, I think we can do better and go further on the point of 'equality'!" The richest man pressed the button of the laser pointer in his hand and said loudly: "This is the upgrade concept I want to put forward on the basis of the current Web today - Web 2.0." ”

Tang Huan pointed to the huge projection screen, "Under this concept, users are not only one-sided content consumers in the traditional sense, but also two-way content producers - in this way, the 'resource equality' on the Internet is further reflected." ”

"In order to vividly explain the concept of Web 2.0, I would like to take the popular P2P network as an example - each node on the network can not only download the data it wants from other nodes, but also provide other nodes with the data that others need, thus achieving a huge data transmission speed improvement and achieving a win-win situation."

Similarly, on the Web 2.0 Internet, every user is no longer a passive receiver of information, but an active participant; is no longer a mere spectator, but a weaver, user, and disseminator of the Internet!"

"In this way, the Internet will become a truly circular organism, and in turn usher in a much broader future than what we have seen so far."

In the warm applause, Tang Huan walked to the table where the computer was placed, "Let me give you another example of Web 2.0 - AOL has completed internal testing and will officially provide blogging services to the outside world in the next few days." It's completely different from the well-known personal website services, and it doesn't require the use of additional FTP tools in order to upload web pages, which is almost the same as using word processing software. ”

"Everybody knows that – I have some product experience care at AOL, and this blog is no different."

"Now, I'm going to put the text of what I just said on my blog; You can visit later and leave a message. ”

"This is a prime example of Web 2.0 – some of the ideas are not entirely new; It can be called completely new in the implementation of the technical architecture. ”

To this end, Zheru and Zheru Software have specially designed a new two-way protocol for Internet communication to support Representational_State_Transfer - concrete state transmission, that is, REST; Simple_Object_Access_Protocol - Simple Object Access Protocol, i.e. Web services such as SOAP. ”

"In short, on this architecture, anyone can implement Web 2.0 applications, including blogs."

"As for the more specific technologies, they will be discussed later in the conference session."

……

The new upgrade concept proposed by Mr. Shoufu at the opening ceremony of this year's Zheru Developer Conference - Web 2.0 has not only had an impact in the industry, but also alarmed a wider range of attention outside the IT professional media.

You must know that AOL Time Warner Turner, a giant spanning the three major fields of media, entertainment and the Internet, not only made peers jealous after its establishment, but also aroused a thousand waves to arouse all kinds of thoughts that strive to go as deep as possible.

At the end of the day, the social elite has not yet figured out how to properly and systematically understand and use the new technological tool of the World Wide Web.

……

The following is the anti-D part.,Update it tomorrow.,Just ignore it.。

……

……

What Gerard Levine said about "in the interests of all" is nothing more than - AOL, which has a market value of nearly $160 billion, occupies 55% of the shares of AOL Time Warner Turner, which is equivalent to making the value of this new group more than $300 billion.

There's too much confusion in this.

On the other hand, AOL's market capitalization is almost twice that of Time Warner Turner, but it only occupies 55% of AOL's shares in Time Warner Turner - this phenomenon itself shows to some extent that although Gerard Levine is eager to enter the digital media field through AOL, he is not as blindly optimistic about the value of AOL as it seems on the surface.

Of course, the richest man is not going to be unreasonableβ€”it is enough to be able to establish this principle, and the resources saved are used to compete for more important new positions in the company.

"Then ......" Tang Huan waved his hand: "Let's take advantage of the victory to determine the management structure of the new company." ”

As soon as he mentioned the issue of the distribution of power that had been disputed before, Gerard Levine, who was originally quite amiable, suddenly showed his cunning nature and suggested: "Since AOL occupies 55% of the shares of the new company, then Steve will be the non-executive chairman, and I will be the CEO." ”

Steve Case immediately objected: "I would love to be the chairman of the board of directors of the new company, but I can't accept being put in a false position where I can only do honorary work. ”

Gerard Levine painstakingly advised: "It is completely predictable that the integration of resources in the new company will be an extremely complicated process - you have little experience in the field of traditional media, so don't waste brain cells." ”

Steve Case complained: "Don't you mean that I am young and junior - don't forget who brought out AOL, which is now ranked tenth in market capitalization?" ”

……

Looking at the scene of "every inch of land must be contested" in front of him, Tang Huan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows - he was still arguing so without any new ideas, and the toss to the Year of the Monkey may not have any results!

So the richest man coughed lightly and interjected: "The positions of the chairman of the board of directors and the chief executive officer should be decided; As for Steve's board chairmanship, whether executive or non-executive, it would be better to put it on hold and discuss other things - for example, I propose to create a co-COO position under the CEO to better facilitate the merger of the future largest media group. ”

"Let's settle down on something that's easy to solve first!" Gerard Levine, who was as good as a stream, turned his eyes to Richard Parsons beside him, "Time Warner Turner's side, let's nominate Richard." ”

Richard Parsons was introduced to former Time Warner CEO Steve Ross through Lawrence Rockefeller, the third generation of Rockefeller, and entered Time Warner in the early 1990s.

Don't look at the black people on the TV news who often confront the police, it seems very violent; Black people in Hollywood movies tend to chatter endlessly, as if they are a mother, but the black elite who can enter the executive circle is still quite gentle and steady.

Tang Huan has such an experience of employing people - such as Chuck Smith, CEO of Pacific Telecom, Condoleezza Rice, political ~ political adviser, and so on.

Looking at the humble and low-key Richard Parsons, the richest man bowed slightly without objection.

Steve Case said, "AOL, here, has nominated Robert as co-COO. ”

Gerald Levine looked at Robert Pittman and couldn't find a reason to object. After all, the other party is now the CEO of AOL, and he is doing a very good job, so he can't even get into the position of president in the new group.

Mr. The richest man continued to push the agenda forward, "Next, let's talk about the CFO candidate. ”

Gerard Levine quickly picked up: "I think the form of the joint position is very good......

"No!" Tang Huan raised his hand to interrupt the other party and said: "The position of co-COO was established because it is completely foreseeable that the new group in the future will have an extremely busy peak stage in the operation of integration, and the co-COO will be able to reduce the burden on the CEO; As for the more specialized field of financial management, there is no such need. ”

Speaking of which, Mr. The richest man looked directly at Gerard Levine, "After all, AOL and Time Warner Turner are merging, not dividing, right?" ”

"Okay." Gerald Levine looked away at Zee Rip, the chief financial officer of Time Warner Turner, and was about to make a recommendation, only to be interrupted by Steve Case.

"At present, AOL has hoarded $3 billion in inventory for Internet advertising revenue alone; And in terms of cash flow, AOL is far better than Time Warner Turner. ”

Steve Keys waved his hand and said in an emphatic tone: "I think it is most appropriate for Michael Kelly, the chief financial officer of AOL, to be the chief financial officer of the new group!" ”

Gerard Levine looked at the look on Steve Case's face, revealing the meaning of "I have a lot more cash in my hand than you, so naturally we will be in charge of the financial management of the new group", his lips moved, but he was speechless.

The CEO of Time Warner Turner was determined because of "information asymmetry".

In terms of seniority, Gerard Levine is a veteran, who worked for HBO, a paid cable and satellite network under his command, back in the days of Time Group, until he rose to the position of CEO of HBO.

During the marriage between Time Group and WarnerMedia, Gerard Levine began to be appreciated by Steve Ross, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a noble person with the grace of support.

There is no unprovoked hatred, no gratuitous love - it is unknown to outsiders how Gerard Lay obtained this creation, and perhaps some kind of like-mindedness can be seen in the fact that he and Steve Ross are both Jews and support the Jewish cause.
