Chapter 207: Void and Wrongdoing

"Mr. Metcalfe, President Emerson is already waiting for you in the office, please come with me!"

Since Metcalfe had already made an appointment with the vice president of the European Committee for Standardization (CES) for the electronics industry before leaving Geneva, he arrived at the office the next morning as scheduled.

"Mr. President, it is an honor to receive your warm reception......

Following the young female secretary into a retro-style office, I saw an old man with thick reading glasses and some snow-white hair looking down at something.

It wasn't until the other person looked up that Metcalfe stepped forward to greet him.

"Young man, I don't have a lot of time, I hope you can take advantage of your time."

Although the young man in front of him was very polite, Emerson had limited energy in his twilight years and had a lot to deal with, so even if what the other party said at the time of the appointment made him very interested, he hoped that the other party would make a long story short and concisely explain his intentions.

"Yes, Mr. President, this is the "Ethernet Protocol" published by our DIX Group not long ago, please understand the ...... first"

Although he still has a handwritten letter of recommendation from Gate, Metcalfe does not plan to show it immediately, because he knows that the European Committee for Standardization and the International Organization for Standardization are different in nature.

Therefore, he needs to successfully persuade the other party technically first, and then take out the handwritten letter to stabilize his right to speak, so as not to give people any abrupt feeling.

"Sir. I don't think so, I know a lot about its content, it's very exciting! ”

In terms of Internet communication, because the overall level of Europe is lagging behind the United States, this has formed a very contradictory situation, on the one hand, Europeans are constantly learning the advanced technology and concepts of the United States, on the other hand, they have always wanted to break away from the influence of the United States, and establish their own set of standards.

Emerson, who was in charge of this matter, did not hesitate to meet with Metcalfe, the founder of the DIX Group, when he heard that Metcalfe, the founder of the DIX Group, wanted to discuss the exchange of Internet technical standards. Anyway. For him, there is always something to gain.

"Thank you for the compliment, I have another more detailed technical standard here, please ......take a look at it"

There are some differences between the standards of Europe and the standards of the United States. Differences in this area are widespread across industries. Metcalfe certainly had this in mind before he came. Therefore, the more detailed technical standards he came up with are actually closer to the other party's standards and easier for the other party to adopt.

"Hmm. It seems that Mr. Metcalfe is very concerned about the development of our European Internet technology, and this technical standard is very much in line with our standards and our actual needs, and we will consider it carefully! ”

It seems that the other party came to him with a big plan, if they really adopt the other party's set of technical standards as the next generation of European Internet technology standards, then there is no doubt that they will definitely be led by the nose at that time.

And in this way, it is also very unfavorable to create a good soil for the development of local European companies, which they are unwilling, otherwise they will not implement the technical standards that are different from those of the United States, you must know that at this time, even if the United States is a high-end military technology for Europe, there is also a part of it is open, why do people do this, in order not to let the other party follow behind them, and people have such confidence and strength to let them do this.

The high-tech field is a complex technical field, for example, if you buy my CPU, then you have to buy the operating system running on it, and then the next is the motherboard that is compatible with it, cache and a series of other supporting components, and you can only accept it, unless you have the courage to break your wrist and waste money, you can only be controlled step by step, knowing that you can independently develop alternative products.

"Thank you for your affirmation, Mr. President, if I have the opportunity, I would like to personally give a speech in this regard to your relevant working groups, and introduce to them what we can achieve with this technical standard of DIX Group and what kind of positive impact it will bring to the development of Internet technology in Europe!"

People subconsciously tend to think about the outcome of things in the direction they want to go, and when Metcalfe sees that things are going very well, he wants to strike while the iron is hot, and offers to give a public speech in the other party's organization, so as to vigorously sell their technical standards to the other party and expand their influence at the same time.

"Welcome, I think it will also be very helpful for the work that we need to do next, you see how about we set the time in three days, we need to make some more detailed preparations, and then not only will all the staff of our committee's electronic communication working group be on time, but I will also be present at the presentation in person!"

He was really a generous young man, and this offer could help him a lot to a large extent, because they don't always have such good free training opportunities, and the smile on Emerson's face was even bigger when he thought of this.

"Mr. President, I'm sure it will be the honor of my life, by the way, I heard that Mr. Gate, the president of IEEE, said that you are old friends, this time, I brought a handwritten letter that he asked me to help forward, please accept it!"

With that detailed technical standard as the basis for the dialogue between the two sides, and the other party also readily agreed that he wanted to give a special speech in this standardization committee, and the respected vice president in front of him will personally attend at that time.

All of this adds up, and Metcalfe feels that his trip to Europe will end perfectly in the next few days, not only to successfully snipe their competitors, but also to make their DIX Group's own Internet technology standards widely promoted and recognized, and the great fame and fortune are already ready to accompany him in his bedroom like a bathed young girl.

"Go back and prepare, young man, the future belongs to you, I am very optimistic about you, and at the same time, please help tell my old friend Gate when I go back, and tell him that I have successfully received the letter!"

The appearance of this letter brought him some additional important information, presumably in terms of the development of Internet technology, the technical standards of the DIX Group have been recognized by the IEEE, so the International Organization for Standardization, which is closely related to it, is estimated to have been persuaded by the other party at this time.

If they get the European Committee for Standardization, doesn't it mean that their Internet technology standards will cover the whole world and affect the direction of the whole world at all times...... (To be continued......)
