Chapter 83: Rotten Things (Chapter 1/4)
The next day, Chen Mengchuan and his entourage of 16 people and 4 cars headed towards the IBM headquarters in Amunk City.
Amunk is in the northeast of New York City, is a small town, with Chen Mengchuan three people in a car and a car with Simon's student Anthony, a very deep understanding of IBM, slowly told Chen Mengchuan and others about IBM's past and present, most of which Chen Mengchuan had never heard of.
The car quickly drove up a hill, and on the small hill was IBM's headquarters, and there were six parking lots the size of a football field in front of the IBM office building, and the number of cars was not much, probably only three of them were full.
The car stopped in the parking lot, and a group of people got out of the car. IBM, which had already received the news, came forward to receive six people, including two people from Intel.
IBM Fang is led by a middle-aged woman with a bright smile, and Anthony told Chen Mengchuan that this woman is now Ginie Rometi, who is now at the helm of IBM. Chairman, Chairman and CEO of IBM Corporation! All the major initiatives and changes in IBM in the past 8 or 9 years have been driven by this woman!
On the Intel side, it is a man with deep eyes and heavy bags under his eyes, and the current CEO of Intel Corporation, Bob Swan, is a man with a rich career and a very smart life.
Nvidia, on the other hand, is founder and CEO Huang Renxun and his assistant secretary.
After a brief greeting and meeting, the two sides entered IBM.
After sitting down in a large open conference room, we began to discuss the supercomputer plan.
Whether it's IBM's Ginny Rometti, Intel's Bob Swan, or NVIDIA's Huang Renxun, the three are all very talkative and charismatic.
During the conversation, Bob Swan smiled and said that when the $10 billion budget supercomputing project was first placed on his desk, it was almost thrown directly into the trash, but fortunately his secretary stopped him and told him that the order came from a Chinese company that is changing the world, Tianzhi. That's what caught his attention.
Humorous and witty, and just the right conversation, so that the atmosphere of the scene is very good.
Soon, an IBM engineer began to show four proposals made by three companies for the $10 billion budget.
After more than an hour of heated discussion and exchange, IBM put forward the first plan, which was quickly rejected by Chen Mengchuan.
After taking a break, Intel proposed a second plan, but it was also rejected by Chen Mengchuan soon.
Then it was lunchtime. Ginny Rometti took everyone to the IBM staff cafeteria and had a simple and nutritious working meal.
Then Ginny Rometti proposed to take a break and revise and refine the new plan. Chen Mengchuan and others naturally postponed the exchange of program reports to the next day.
On the way back to Yonkers, Chen Mengchuan received a call from Xu Shuwei.
"Brother Xu, is something wrong?" Chen Mengchuan asked directly.
Xu Shuwei nodded and replied: "Baidu Company sued Tianzhi for unfair competition, including poaching, stealing Baidu's core search engine algorithm technology, suing Zeng Yike for failing to comply with the non-compete contract, and provided a lot of evidence. ”
Chen Mengchuan frowned, more than 70 of the more than 200 cute girls in Tianzhi Search Engine jumped from Baidu.
"What evidence?" Chen Mengchuan asked.
"Tianzhi Search has launched an image search algorithm, and many of the algorithms in it are very similar to Baidu's algorithm. Moreover, some of the search rules are highly similar to those of the Baidu search engine. But that's not the most important thing. Xu Shuwei's face was a little heavy.
"Brother Xu, you say."
"In Tianzhi's picture search algorithm, there are some bugs, and there is no way to do very good evasion and filtering for the time being, so now through Tianzhi's picture search, a large number of yellow pictures can be searched, because of this matter, now Tianzhi's picture search has been urgently offline, and now these girls in the search department are in a bad mood." Xu Shuwei sighed.
"How is this possible?" Chen Mengchuan asked.
"There is a part of the image search algorithm that is not more than Tomoko Kamikawa, especially a lot of very normal keywords, when combined, you can search for a large number of pornographic images. These keywords, Kawachiko does not filter and circumvent them. Xu Shuwei said.
Chen Mengchuan frowned: "I know, offline the picture function of Tianzhi Search, wait until I go back." Brother Xu, appease these girls for me. In addition, let the cooperative lawyer group fight the lawsuit with Baidu Company to the end. ”
"Good!"
"Hang up first, I'll call Zeng Yike." After Chen Mengchuan finished speaking, he hung up the phone and dialed Zeng Yike.
After the phone beeped a few times, Zeng Yike picked up the phone.
Mr. Chen...... Sorry ......"
Chen Mengchuan interrupted her: "Don't say sorry to me, give up the image search service for the time being, let everyone focus on starting the 'keyword precision bidding advertising plan' immediately, let everyone move, start doing it immediately, I want to see you submit more than 3 proposals to me as soon as possible." ”
"Okay, Mr. Chen." Zeng Yike took a deep breath and responded.
"This is one thing, another thing, in the name of Tianzhi issued an apology statement to the whole of China, and informed Tianzhi that it will launch an advertising plan, and will take out 50% of all advertising revenue within one year after the official launch of the advertising plan to set up a Huaxia Education Fund to help all poor students in Huaxia, as well as volunteer teachers. You go to Wanyu now about this matter and tell her that it is me. Chen Mengchuan said.
"I know, Mr. Chen, I'll take care of these things." Zeng Yike replied.
"I have already told Mr. Xu about the lawsuit filed by Baidu, and he will arrange for the company's lawyer team to respond to the lawsuit. After that, you can cooperate with the arrangement. After finishing the order, Chen Mengchuan hung up the phone and frowned slightly.
"In many places, Tomoko Kawa still has algorithm blind spots...... Still not strong enough. Chen Mengchuan sighed and said.
Gu Xiaoxiao hurriedly asked about the situation, and Chen Mengchuan explained the general ins and outs of the matter with his own understanding.
"It seems that Baidu is starting to get anxious." Toni said slowly, pushing his glasses.
"I hope the heads of the high-level people in Baidu are clearer, otherwise I don't mind throwing some big moves and eating them first." Chen Mengchuan said coldly.
Gu Xiaoxiao scolded a few words with some emotion: "This fast food company that sells medicine is not shallow in harming people, so it should have killed them as soon as possible." Again and again, how many Chinese people have been harmed. ”
Chen Mengchuan nodded, he also has the same emotions as Gu Xiaoxiao, the former Baidu company, when it first appeared, quickly became the largest search engine in China with its search engine technology that better understands Chinese Chinese, but after the step-by-step development and step-by-step growth, it has long lost its original intention and made one thing after another that makes people indignant.
"It's time to put an end to some rotten things...... Chen Mengchuan muttered.
