At this stage, China's IT market, in terms of hardware, such as banks, telecommunications and other units use servers and workstations, there are many brands, Fangyuan, IBM, HP and the like - this is an inevitable pattern, not to mention the public relations energy of various giants, the interests of import agents, just the government ~ the government, as long as you are wise, you will not allow a monopoly in key areas.

However, on the personal computer side, users only hear the name of Fangyuan personal computer.

From the late 1980s to the early 1990s, the IBM-PC compatible machine camp took advantage of the market volatility caused by special reasons and fought back for a while, but the Microsoft graphical user interface operating system Windows_3.1.1 Chinese version of the help file appeared in the word "bandit" and was hidden, and its ecosystem died of starvation because of "chronic malnutrition".

Video game consoles are greatly affected by public opinion, policies, and market fluctuations, that is, home video game consoles have platform significance, and this position has been occupied by a generation of Xiaobawang game consoles that are completely localized in the ecosystem - in the future, as people's income levels increase, they will bring accumulated "fan" benefits to the latest game consoles.

Due to the late start of the home theater field, the digital mode VCD basically crossed the stage of the video recorder and directly became the mainstream in one step.

These various situations can be summed up as follows: the field of mass direction and consumer-level hardware products is completely the world of Tang's IT ecosystem.

Soon, the set-top box, a new member, will also join the service team.

Compared with Xiaobawang game consoles, VCDs on TVs, such as signal reception from relying only on radio frequency, upgraded to the impact of A_V terminals, the significance of the set-top box is obviously more significant, it will become a bridge between traditional home appliances and the Internet, and provide a new digital interactive function.

Now the concept of "set-top box",It must not be compared with the original time and space more than ten years later"4K","H.265Hard decompression","Massive programs"The kind of "set-top box"Advertising selling points,But the original intention of making traditional home appliances become Internet terminals is the same。

A set-top box can be simply imagined as a hybrid system of the basic functions of a computer and a modem – key parts such as design, chips, and software are provided by Tang Huan, and specific products are operated by China's IT and home appliance circles.

In order to develop the market, Tang Huan will not charge relevant licensing fees to reduce manufacturing costs, give up profit margins, and mobilize the enthusiasm of followers to participate in the construction of the ecosystem.

In other words, China's IT circles and home appliance circles only use to pay money to Tang Huan when they buy physical objects such as chips, and even the cost of software is saved.

One of the special things about software is that sometimes it costs a negligible.

Tang Huan was able to win the largest share of China's software market because of this.

The carve-up of China's software market is similar to the pattern of hardware products - other brands of servers, workstations and other high-end products outside the Fangyuan computer standard have their own software ecosystems; General-purpose systems such as large relational databases are dominated by EBase, Oracle, Sybase, and other products. The experience environment of families and individual users is created by Zheru software.

For example, the operating system studiOS, which has a special edition of Chinese with a disc region code limited to China, is given to Fangyuan personal computer manufacturers for pre-installation at a price that is almost free or even discounted.

Perhaps using VCD as an example is more illustrative - Tang Tycoon's Dream Factory has mastered countless Chinese program content, so much so that he dares to sell a VCD disc at a price of 10 yuan, and then the rich program source has stimulated people's enthusiasm for buying VCD, making it a standard purchase for young people to get married.

This kind of "giving", of course, will not be selfless for no reason, and what it will ultimately get is a platform and standards.

Mr. The richest man wants to engage in the model of "home appliances + set-top box + Internet" in the current China, mainly referring to the French MiniTel - the most successful Internet application model before the emergence of the World Wide Web, showing the simple truth - "the poor have the poor to live, the rich to live the way".

Mr. The richest man is in the center, and the huge group photo of other IT and home appliance tycoons holding the moon shows how formal and grand everyone's meeting in the SAR is.

In an interview with the media, Tang Huan described the goal of this cooperation around "TV + set-top box + Internet" as creating the world's largest Internet user group.

Journalists are shocked to think of the spectacle of more than a billion people accessing the Internet in this way – a goal that is truly ambitious! No wonder the stock market is heating up again.

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

……

The World Wide Web, which has no licensing fees, has proliferated the number of websites, but it has also brought confusion to Internet users.

It is estimated that the bosses of David Ferro and Yang Zhiyuan were so generous that they had the leisure to compile an index of these sites for other Internet users to use, and then stepped on the drumbeat of the times by chance, and the number of hits was about to exceed 1 million due to their popularity.

As a result, "Jerry's Web Guide" was changed to the catchy "Yahoo", and in order to distinguish it from the registered trademark "Yahoo" for existing products such as barbecue sauce and knives, an exclamation point was added to the end and changed to "Yahoo! But I just forgot to spend $100 to sign up for "yahoo.com".

I have to say that smart people often have a hundred secrets, or when people are poor and short-sighted.

It's not hard to imagine that Yahoo now, in terms of technology, doesn't have much gold content, and is a software "database" that can be customized and can update the website's index information at any time.

It is no exaggeration to say that for Yahoo, who has only shown sharp corners of Xiaohe, the richest man with too much capital, whether he looks down on it or replaces it, there is nothing to say.

However, he still quietly watched this little seedling, growing up according to his instinct with natural ecology. Guy, Yahoo's great thing is that it inherently contains a new and viable mode of operation.

Of course, the richest man owns AOL, but the AOL's model does not represent the entire Internet and the World Wide Web.

Although AOL is not as qualified as its competitors in the online services field, it certainly has no problem being older than Yahoo. It came to the fore in 1983 when the ARPA network was divided into military and civilian parts, and TCP/IP began to become a universal protocol.

Due to the lack of resources in the era of Internet pioneering, the operation mode of such online services has been to try to provide all the Internet access content by themselves from the beginning, and to lease network lines on a large scale, or even build their own network lines, to become Internet_Service_Provider Internet service providers, that is, ISPs.

In contrast to AOL's "hard" model, which keeps users in circles, Yahoo represents a "soft" path to provide navigation capabilities for the portal because the Internet resources have begun to explode so much that users are at a loss for what to do.

Yahoo's main job is to set up servers, maintain its own "website database", and provide an attractive navigation page that takes up the entry point to the Internet with countless websites, without having to rent lines and control users to its own website.

To put it more lofty, or even politically ~ more correct, Yahoo represents freedom~ freedom and openness, and truly explains the spiritual essence of the Internet.

Of course, this does not mean that AOL is on the wrong path, but Yahoo is on the right path -- the different stages of the development of the Internet have contributed to different road trade-offs and operational characteristics.

Moreover, AOL still represents the mainstream at this stage - Yahoo's website navigation directory is in the front row, and it must have its place.

Under Tang Huan's guidance, AOL has embraced the World Wide Web many times faster than its competitors in online services, and it can be said that its path has always been "right".

But it is impossible to make AOL one step more "correct" and switch to the model of a portal. Not to mention that the portal model has just emerged, it is impossible to part with AOL's existing content resources alone. The online service model has been "correct" into its genes, and it can only fine-tune its own direction with the development of the Internet.

In this case, the value of the incomparably new Yahoo to the richest man is reflected - it can not only meet the layout of not putting eggs in one basket, but also greatly reduce the cost of mastering the portal model.

As for the value of David Ferro and Yang Zhiyuan, the two graduate students, they are similar to James Cameron, who is dedicated to filming "Titanic", and the persistence in his bones is not easy to find.

You must know that with the strength of only two people, it is a manual work to organize the information of thousands of websites into an indexing service, but it is definitely not possible without enthusiasm.

Tang Huan casually opened the Yahoo page on his computer, and couldn't help but smile to himself—the server in David Ferro and Yang Zhiyuan's apartment was probably overwhelmed and about to strike.

Meng Jing, the little cousin who was sorting out the information on the side, couldn't help but roll her eyes after seeing Tang Huan's scheming and complacent expression, "Brother, you have preemptively registered so many .com domain names, aren't you afraid that others will say that you will bully the small?" ”

"Silly girl, with these domain names, we can virtually try not to miss any fish in the layout." Tang Huan laughed, "When someone comes to inquire about the transfer of the domain name, it is equivalent to an event trigger on the program, and I don't know how much effort is saved." ”

Meng Jing nodded suddenly, "Then you have chanted Yahoo's name several times, are you planning to catch this fish that slipped through the net?" ”

"Yahoo isn't a fish that slipped through the net, it's a fish in my pool." Tang Huan replied playfully: "By the way, Yahoo's hits are about to exceed 1 million, it is estimated that David Ferro and Yang Zhiyuan, two poor graduate students, should also have an idea of the commercial value of the work they are interested in. After this busy time, arrange for everyone to come to a meeting. ”

"Got it." Meng Jing agreed, and then handed over a document, "This year's COMDEX Las Vegas Fall Show is really a rare competition, not to mention the addition of Sony's Playstation in the field of home TV game consoles, just Polestar, a browser software of Zheru Software Company, Polaris, has a new competitor." ”

Tang Huan looked at the document and said calmly: "This Netscape - Netscape I know that Jim Clark, who ran away from Silicon Valley Graphics, invested $4 million to establish a small start-up company - the browser market, there are not many of them, and there are not many of them. ”

"You've repeatedly stressed to us that the competition on the Internet platform is free of charge." Meng Jing reminded: "Compared to Polestar, which is a commercial software and is temporarily free in the name of promotion, now Netscape_Navigator Netscape Navigator has no hesitation to position itself as a shareware as soon as the official version of 1.0 is launched, which is really free, which is menacing and not comparable to other competitors." ”

"Polestar is technologically ahead and has a first-mover advantage in market share, so it's not afraid of Netscape_Navigator disruptions." Tang Huan waved his hand relaxedly, "Netscape_Navigator want to grab market share by relying on clean and free means, then I can also spend money to buy others to use Polestar through multiple software product package promotions and secret subsidies." ”

Meng Jingwan said: "Brother, you have to pay attention, although Zheru Software has been spun off and has reached an anti-monopoly settlement with the Federal Ministry of Justice, there are still people staring at it - it is too domineering and easy to fall into the handle." ”

"Also, when it comes to promotions, I remember that Polestar's browser homepage was sold to AOL; If we support Yahoo again, the relationship between this small alliance will be a bit difficult to coordinate. ”
