Three days later, Bay Area, California.

In a large and luxurious conference hall, in the middle is an oval table, on which sit representatives of the heads of eleven North American technology giants, including Google, IBM, Intel, Microsoft, Amazon, and SAFTSE.

There are not only Silicon Valley technology giants, but even the military giant Lockheed Martin has sent a representative to the head, in most people's eyes Loma is a military giant, in fact, it is the world's top industrial software giant.

Cloud computing services can involve almost all aspects of modern life, and when it comes to national defense, military industry, government departments and other fields, Europeans and Americans do not use Bluestar Technology Group's StarCloud solution.

Luo Sheng didn't report any thoughts in these fields, it was not easy to enter the commercial market in Europe and the United States, and as for these sensitive fields, the other party did not dare to play like this, otherwise the market share would be more than 80%.

And this has led to an embarrassing consequence for Silicon Valley's tech giants.

North American technology companies such as Amazon and Google have nothing to fight in the field of cloud computing in the face of Bluestar Technology's Nebula Star-Cloud, and the result is that civilian cloud computing solutions are more advanced, while military ones are not as good as civilian ones, and the same cost must be Nebula Star-Cloud is more cost-effective.

In addition to Amazon's autonomy, Google and Microsoft crossed the river by touching Luo Sheng at the beginning, and the beginning of cloud computing was to imitate the Nebula Star-Cloud.

"In 2006, the young technology giant from across the ocean officially proposed a new concept - Cloud Computing (cloud computing), in fact, Google had already demonstrated cloud computing at that time, unfortunately Bluestar Technology is faster and more determined than us, so today's more than 70% of the market share is occupied by Bluestar Technology, almost unbreakable."

Sitting at the oval table was a well-known Silicon Valley tycoon, and the person who had just spoken was Eric Schmidt, the current head of Google, who was still quite respected by everyone.

After a moment, Eric Schmidt added: "Although it is inconceivable to unite with the major IT giants of Silicon Valley against a technology company from China, this is the fact that we are about to face, only in this way can we overturn the dominance of Bluestar Technology in the field of cloud computing, as long as it can be strangled together, everyone can be fed." ”

Everyone here is the elite of the elite, and they also have a huge elite think tank behind them, so it is impossible not to see what it will mean for Bluestar Technology to launch an open source cloud platform.

In the current industry situation, Nebulas Star-Cloud has already dominated the market share, and if the open source cloud platform is launched again, whether it is Microsoft or Google, the living space will be further squeezed.

According to North American law, when a company occupies 60% of the market share, it can be defined as a monopoly, and when it reaches 90% of the market share, it is an absolute monopoly.

Probably the most famous in the IT world is Microsoft's monopoly lawsuit, which was almost broken up in the end, but in the end it didn't happen.

Bluestar Technology is now very similar to Microsoft, especially in the field of cloud computing services, this natural monopoly is difficult to dismember, and it is difficult to win a lawsuit, not to mention Luo Sheng's caution, Microsoft was facing such a big crisis, to a certain extent, it was Bill Gates's arrogance.

And every step Luo Sheng takes makes you unable to find fault, people play completely according to your game rules, absolutely not more than half a step, even fishing can't fall off the other party.

Unless it is to ignore the rules of the game set by themselves and play hooliganism, but this is too difficult, and Americans are unwilling to use it unless they have to, because this is a move that belongs to the "Seven Wounds Fist", which hurts others and hurts themselves.

But now we must face the facts, Bluestar Technology itself is already very powerful, and with a group of younger brothers, the current major cloud players will inevitably say goodbye to the commercial field of cloud computing, where Bluestar Technology and its alliance system will have no opponents.

Whether it's Google, Microsoft, or Amazon, they can only rely on the list of the Cape Woods to get by, and it's miserable to think about, there is little meat, and there are still so many people.

And you have to guard against each other's secret tricks, and you have to worry about being challenged by other cloud computing service companies.

It is for these reasons that the IT giants of Silicon Valley are coming together at this moment, and the core of the discussion is one point, and it is very simple.

That is Eric Schmidt's initiative, which was jointly led by Silicon Valley technology giants to build a similar open source cloud platform to counter the open source cloud platform of Bluestar Technology Group, and other small and medium-sized IT companies in Silicon Valley cannot be allowed to throw themselves into Luo Sheng's arms.

For this matter, the IT giants in Silicon Valley quickly reached a consensus, compared with each other's tricks and plotting against each other, where is the greater benefit than strangling the elephant of Bluestar Technology Nebula Star-Cloud.

With a market share of more than 70%, it is tantamount to a gluttonous feast.

"Shouldn't IBM be the first to lead by example and show sincerity? Since it has been decided to strangle Bluestar Technology's 'Star-Cloud', IBM should immediately stop continuing to cooperate with Bluestar Technology in data centers and servers, and completely terminate it. ”

The person who said this was Ballmer, the head of Microsoft, and before the words fell, everyone looked at Samuel, who is currently at the helm of IBM.

At this moment, everyone is scolding Samuel and IBM in their hearts, because of the rise of cloud computing services, IBM is the first to benefit, it can be said that IBM is done at home, and it is inexplicably pushed to the cloud computing outlet.

And then it took off!

"Terminate the cooperation with Bluestar Technology? What international jokes? IBM has reached a $46 billion strategic contract with Bluestar Technology Group during 2006, unilaterally ceasing cooperation? Who will pay for the liquidated damages and the loss of this strategic contract? Who's coming? Who can? Can Intel make up for IBM's loss of this super big order? Samuel looked around at everyone and gave the head of Intel a meaningful look at the end.

None of the bigwigs at the meeting jumped out to take over the words of the head of IBM.

The people sitting at this table are all old foxes who are shrewd to the bone, their interests are intricate, there is competition and cooperation, as long as they do not start a war in the hinterland of each other's kingdoms, the competition in the border area will definitely not prevent this alliance against Blue Star Technology.

What's more, even if you want to strangle Bluestar Technology now, IBM, Google, and Yahoo still cooperate with Bluestar Technology.

If the non-scoring is clear and clear, and all the old bottoms of each are turned out and carefully calculated, who has no historical grievances with whom?

It's impossible to get through these days.

Let the past pass, the past is not to blame, and now we want a situation of carrying on the past and forging ahead into the future.

Samuel's words were quite confident, and he wanted IBM to break off the strategic cooperation with Bluestar Technology, and his response was: No...... Can...... Yes......!

What are you kidding?

The list of four or five billion dollars, there may be more in the future, can you kill the other party here or not, IBM is not as stupid as Sony.

This is not the key, what really makes Samuel so confident is that in the data center sector of cloud computing services, the advantages of cloud servers are ahead of everyone.

IBM's wishful thinking is not only to earn Luo Sheng's money, but also to earn everyone's money.

Bluestar Technology is now going to launch an open source cloud platform, but IBM is happy to see it, and it is too tight, and the technology giants in Silicon Valley are in a hurry, and it just so happens that IBM has a good solution here.

You can make a lot of money at both ends, and you still have nothing to do with my IBM, why not?

"I would like to kindly remind you that your IBM's 'Huaguo apprentice' Huawei is the company, it is best to be on guard, according to the news I have received, Huawei company signed an order with Bluestar Technology Group at the end of last year for servers required for two data centers." The head of the Saifushi who attended the meeting said intriguingly.

Without waiting for Samuel to reply, he added: "There is no doubt that Bluestar Technology is obviously supporting the Huawei server, and it is also deliberately guarding against IBM's possible table lifting, and the shopping mall is treacherous, but don't overturn the car when the time comes, the master is killed or disabled by the apprentice, and the 'blue giant' IBM that makes the whole United States proud has become an epic joke in Silicon Valley." ”

As soon as these words came out, the bigwigs attending the meeting all smiled playfully.

In the face of this ridicule, Samuel didn't care, and said lightly: "IBM has long been aware of this problem and is actively responding to it, thank you for your concern." ”

At this time, Eric Schmidt spoke again: "Let's put away these careful thoughts, now is not the time for infighting, the IT giants of Silicon Valley must unite to potentially overthrow the dominance of 'Star-Cloud' in the global cloud computing field, this matter alone is highly consistent with the interests of everyone here, and it is also the first priority to consider." ”

Everyone nodded silently, and immediately stopped mocking and sarcasm at each other.

The discussion quickly got to the point.

In response to this matter, the IT giants of Silicon Valley reached a substantive consensus at today's meeting.

The next day, the 11 Silicon Valley technology giants officially held a joint press conference, announcing very high-profile that they would jointly develop an open source cloud platform - Open-Stack.

The Bluestar Technology Group on the other side of the ocean has not yet officially announced it, and Silicon Valley can't wait to establish an open source cloud platform first, and the luxury of the lineup can be called no friends.

In this alliance, any one of them is a first-class giant group, but now it is united, and people in the industry don't even need to excuse themselves too much, the establishment of the Open-Stack open source project is born from the long-rumored Blue Star Technology open source cloud platform.

As soon as the news came out, the global technology community was shocked.

Major media have reported that the Open-Stack open source cloud platform has once again pushed the popularity of cloud computing to a new peak and successfully made the front page headlines of the world's mainstream media.

And these things that happened overseas were transmitted back to China, which also caused an unprecedented sensation in the entire industry.

This news was shocking to the Chinese people, and it simply shocked the eyes of countless people.

Has Bluestar Technology been so powerful? Can it force a group of tech giants in Silicon Valley to reach an unprecedented super league to confront it?

The news from overseas directly detonated the topic of the whole network, which was absolutely explosive news for the Chinese people, and the major media in the mainland all competed to quote and report on the incident, and all of them used the front page headline page to push it wildly.
