Chapter 135: If you don't accept it, you can endure it

"Chen Sheng, thunder roar." In the solemn and majestic Baroque dome building style of San Francisco City Hall, a fat uncle with a mustache and a kind face is greeting today's protagonist at the door, and the exit is authentic Cantonese. "I'm Li Mengxian, the city administrator, and welcome to you."

"Long admiration, long admiration, Li Sheng." Cantonese is no stranger to Chen Bo, and San Francisco is similar to Pengcheng, with bus stops in English and Cantonese.

Today is the day when the City of San Francisco presents him with the title of "Mayor Emeritus", and the wind and sunshine are beautiful, the birds are singing, and the climate is warm and pleasant, so it is not too cool. And also arranged for a Chinese official to receive him, which seems to be very attentive.

Li Mengxian is an administrative officer, corresponding to the domestic equivalent of the office director, and he led the tour of this nearly 100-year-old city hall, chatting a few nonsense by the way. Although Silicon Valley is not under the jurisdiction of San Francisco, it belongs to the San Francisco Bay Area metropolitan area along with Oakland and Berkeley.

San Francisco is a very special name, and it is also closely related to the Chinese, and it is more called San Francisco in Hong Kong films, which is a problem with the pronunciation of San Francisco's name. Just like Ronaldo, the Cantonese transliteration is Lang Nadu.

California used to be a Spanish colony, and the first colonists were mainly missionaries, so the names of the cities also have religious overtones, such as San Diego, the city of angels, Los Angeles, and Los Angeles is the Spanish crown, which has no special meaning.

Because in the mid-19th century, gold mines were discovered here, and the construction of the railway required a lot of labor. The history of the humiliation of the Chinese who caught piglets happened during that time, and a large number of Chinese people came to the continent in crowded boats, risking their lives just to make more money.

So it was called the Gold Mountain at the time, and later gold mines were also discovered in Melbourne, Australia, which became the new Gold Mountain, and this place became San Francisco.

The official documents are generally San Francisco, but the Chinese have become a subtle common name, and the White House now uses "San Francisco" as the Chinese translation.

After walking around, I also learned about the history of San Francisco, where the venue was basically ready.

"Welcome, Mr. Chen." Mayor Diane Van Shidan is a well-known affirmative action person in California, living in the Chinese neighborhood has a great influence on her, and she is a well-known pro-China faction in the American political arena, "I have read your speech, and I am deeply touched by the fact that the Chinese have made a lot of contributions and sacrifices for the city, and Lopez and I have always hoped that Congress can give a formal apology to all the Chinese who have been hurt." ”

Nancy Lopez, the Democratic leader of the House of Representatives and her husband, had already found out before Chen Bo came.

"Thank you and your husband for your dedication, I believe that this day will come eventually." Chen Bo held the hand of the female mayor and expressed his heartfelt respect, "I hope to donate 1 million US dollars in my personal name to contribute a meager effort." ”

"Your company's success is justified, thank you for your generosity, we will work for it." Fan Shidan gladly accepted it and was not pretentious. Why don't you need money these days, don't you have to advertise even if you campaign, it's impossible for them to pay for it themselves, right? A mere 1 million is not a big problem for him, but if he can get justice, it will be enough for him to leave his name and history, and it will also make more people pay attention to the Chinese community.

The scene was not lavish, although it was relatively simple, but there were many local media to witness the moment, Fan Shidan stood in front of the microphone and gave a more official speech as the mayor of San Francisco, and then put on a medal of honor.

He should have made another speech, but he simply said some high-sounding words, and recently he caused a lot of trouble after scolding the American media and the domestic media. He has to be a beautiful man quietly, maintain a good image, and don't make a fuss about the upcoming listing of Maidong.

But he didn't want to say more, there were people who didn't think it was a big deal to see the excitement, and when the ceremony was over, some people crowded over and insisted on an interview, and he was holding a domestic newspaper, and a few big words on it were particularly conspicuous, "Why is he so dragged?" The picture is Chen Bo at the annual meeting with his head tilted up, opening his arms to accept the cheers, if it is an ordinary reader, it will indeed feel very arrogant, coupled with the description of fanning the flames, it is obviously a response to Lu Yuyou's criticism of the media.

"Phoenix TV? It's you again. Chen Bo glanced at the station logo on the microphone and showed a wry smile, Murdoch, don't you care?

"What does Mr. Chen think of this report?"

"What do you think? I don't look at it, if a dog bites you, will you bite it? Chen Bo pouted and said, "I've seen someone pick up money, but I've never seen someone pick up scolding, only a person with a weak heart would jump out in such a hurry." ”

"Is it because of the bad relationship with the media that you hid in Silicon Valley?" The reporter was also bold and asked directly and sharply.

"Did you come to the United States because your wife was strict with you?" Chen Bo asked rhetorically.

"Of course not, I'm here to work." The reporter retorted with a choked neck.

"I'm also here to work, so next time I ask a question, I'll think about it first. I came out to hide from the media? If you don't speak, you are acquiescing? Is it crazy in the country? I've told you everything, and you're asking me what I'm doing. Anyway, you are sitting in the office, drinking coffee, and you can make up 10,000 reasons for me by simply typing out a few words, which is what I said in the show out of context! "Chen Bo was not angry in the first place, but he was scared to the head, and he thought I was a bully?" I'm Chen Bo, that's why I'm so dragged like this, and if I don't accept it, I'll endure it! ”

Anyway, I left without looking back, Lao Tzu has a lot of things, how can I grind my teeth with you?

As for the image? Anyway, it's been smeared so much, if there are more lice, it won't itch, and if there are more debts, who cares about that.

After receiving the honorary mayor of San Francisco, Chen Bo went to Sacramento, the capital of California in the northeast, to take over the title of honorary citizen of California from Swarzenegger. In just one year, I have won this honorary award alone, and when will Chicago, Boston, Houston, and Mia be gathered here, will you be able to summon the dragon?

However, Arnold obviously has a certain political purpose, after all, he and the president belong to the Republican camp, and California, a large Democratic Party vote base, wants to be re-elected in this year's election, but it is not allowed to behave, and it can be regarded as repaying the favor that helped last year.

Chen Bo didn't have a vote, and he didn't bother to care about those dogskin things.

He was busy testing the Ant Photo Browser when two guys from Bosnia and Herzegovina came over for a walk, sold the software and went back. It's a very strange expression that it's still comfortable at home, and I don't care at all about what changes the world, it's better to walk the dog on the beach, surf, bask in the sun, and get a comfortable 2 million euros in exchange for a short and concise source code.

The speed from boot to opening is indeed extremely fast, and the entire installation package is only a little more than 5MB after embedding the search function, which is green and pollution-free. Add some easy-to-use auto-change screen wallpapers, personalized clocks, notepads and other components to reach a capacity of 9MB.

"Sundar, how's it going, how many days does your team need to optimize?" This small project, which was not too difficult, was handed over to Pichai to be in charge.

"3 days is enough, when are you going to go online?"

"Let's have Valentine's Day." The corners of Chen Bo's mouth raised, and a pretty figure appeared in his mind, which must have been very interesting that day.

"Perfect, a Valentine's Day gift for users." Pichai bared his white teeth and said excitedly, "I have read the core code sent by the domestic technical team, and it is very good!" This will save us the development cycle, and Firefox will soon be ready to be promoted, definitely no worse than Thunderbird! ”

"Google's traffic from Thunderbird has been on par with Skype, and it has squeezed some market share, whether you can get back this game, this burden depends on you!" Chen Bo invisibly put a little more pressure on Pichai.

Skype is crazy right now, and the speed of weeds has soared in the Internet circle, and even alarmed Powell, the chairman of the Mobile Communications Federation, who even claimed in public that "when I downloaded Skype, I realized that the era of communication is over, you can use it to call anyone for free, and the call quality is extremely good, the era of traditional communication is coming to an end, and the world will undeniably change." ”

To be honest, this old man is forcibly adding drama to himself, in fact, how can it be so exaggerated.

Skype has 145 million users worldwide, and online users are free to call each other, and if you call a landline or mobile phone, you will have to pay for it. Taking domestic tariffs as an example, the cheapest dynamic zone is a two-way charge of 0.25 yuan, which only costs 7 cents here. It costs about 5 cents to make an international call to the United States, and registered users will also receive 10 minutes of free calls.

But the second largest communication tool after QQ users has gone to an extreme pattern, that is, it is constantly being registered repeatedly in order to get free hours. Or just use it to make online calls, and I can't make a few cents this year, and the traffic brought to Ant Search is not considerable, and it even feels a little sad, these users are just trying to be cheap, and the prosperity is all on the surface.

Looking at it now, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a failed product, only a showcase, but this matter is known only to Aliyev and Chen Bo, who are in charge of operation and maintenance. Others don't know, so they can only wait for the rabbit to wait for fools.

After all, even MSN can't sit still at this time, just a fox came and pressed me and beat me for a long time, and you TMD jumped out to call me again, what else do you want me to do? So angry that Microsoft is not even in the mood to release Live Search, or they have long forgotten the they bragged about last year, or maybe the engineer fell into the lake, anyway, in the Internet circle, Microsoft has a lot of jokes.

As for the ant map, it is nervously stitching data, satellite pictures are single, and it is not so easy to make these pictures into a vector map, although the current server is very powerful, and there are many things such as language conversion, fixed-point search and so on to improve. It's not like you can use the data directly, it's a big project.

Fortunately, the data of some major countries is very detailed and easier to do, and it is tentatively scheduled to be launched on April 1, that is, April Fool's Day. For others, it's April Fool's Day, and for them, it's a surprise for users.
