July 2002.

Director Zhang called and told them that the satellite that had been commissioned to be developed by the Ministry of Aerospace Industry had reached the final stage.

Now the finished product has come out and is doing the final inspection work.

In mid-July, satellite testing was completed.

Because Chen Weidong and Chen Jie were still in the United States and did not return to China, Chen Weidong and they could not go to the scene to watch the satellite during the time the satellite was launched, but sent Lin Zeju to watch the ceremony.

This means:

Their servers are about to be officially connected to the U.S. network.

The form here has also become ever-changing, and a small mistake may cause the failure of the entire plan.

Therefore, Chen Weidong can only feel at ease if he is in charge in person.

There is a very different difference between being in the United States and not being in the United States.

Staying here is the only way to understand any subtle changes in the market through various information, so as to make timely adjustments.

But in order to put aside the American people's concern that Infinity, a Chinese company, might control the American network, they and their group lived in a five-star hotel in New York in a low-key manner.

And stop going out and showing up.

Jax, the general manager of the New York network company, found that he rarely appeared on the board of directors of the company, and in the last few days, he has been staying in the company.

For the work that has been prepared for a year, he once again gave a detailed explanation to the employees.

You can see that everyone is nervous.

Jax knows what an important battle this is, the magic of the new network, he has a personal experience, if it is compared to the comprehensiveness of the network service, he has the confidence to win, so that everyone accepts the infinite network!

However, the original Internet service providers in the United States will soon recognize the threat they face and act quickly.

Although the board of directors has explained that the four network companies have jointly purchased the development rights of Infinity Network in the American market, in the face of those behemoths, how long can the company support and whether it can get what it wants, Jax has no bottom in his heart.

During this time, he also made many arrangements in advance and designed many sets of emergency plans.

I only hope that these plans can really play the role he expects.....

The Board of Directors is quite satisfied with his work report.

In this more than a year of preparation, the software engineers of the four network companies worked overtime to design more than 130 new websites after learning from the operation and development of Infinity.com in China.

These sites are all-encompassing and target different demographics.

There is the New York Internet Technology Company and three other Internet companies, which jointly designed the National News Network, the National Financial Network for commercial users, the National Computer Online for computer manufacturing and ordinary users, and various popular entertainment websites, online game sites, movie and music websites, and so on.

Some of these websites are important websites that occupy the commanding heights of the Internet.

The company has arranged professional personnel to manage it, and it is expected that after accumulating a certain number of users, it will be spun off and set up a professional company to operate independently.

Some of them temporarily hired one or two people to screen Huaxia's network resources and use them for use in the initial operation of the network.

When the network is up and running, they don't need to worry about it.

Because one of the great functions of the Internet is sharing, there will inevitably be many enthusiastic users who will upload the video and audio data they have recorded to enrich network resources.

Among them, there is also the infinite technology network of Infinity Company, which is the website they focus on.

Such a comprehensive website resource covers news, technology, economy, film and television, entertainment, etc., which is enough to meet the needs of most users.

In addition to the improvement of the website, the board of directors is very satisfied with the "in" lite version that was sold in the early stage, no, it should be called Windows + now.

These should be the first batch of network users who are relatively certain, and if they are caught, they will have the greatest capital to compete, and even if they cannot fully occupy the market, they can also fight against those old network service providers.

In the first half of 2002, Microsoft's Windows+ Lite operating system sold more than 6 million copies.

And these users, as of June, took the purchase bills, went to the Internet company, and bought the official version of the "Internet Family Bucket" at a very low price, reaching more than 700,000 people.

You know, this is just the achievement of New York Internet Technology companies in the New York area.

Combined with the sales results of the other three strategic partners, almost 50% of the users who have purchased the new operating system have been included.

After entering July, the sales of the new operating system were even more hot.

Thanks to the introduction of sound cards and graphics cards, the performance of existing computers has been greatly enhanced, and after the world's major computer manufacturers have launched their own multimedia boards.

The world's computer market has shown a long-lost prosperity.

The NASDAQ stock market has changed its downward trend and ushered in the Internet tide again.

The emergence of operating system-related software has stimulated the development of hardware, and the introduction of hardware has promoted further sales of software.

Since the second half of this year, users who have learned from various newspapers, media, and magazines that computer technology is advancing by leaps and bounds can no longer hold back their desire for new technologies.

】

A large number of computer users have purchased graphics cards and sound cards, and replaced the old operating system in their computers with the new Windows +.

During the National Day (July 4 in the United States), this sales volume rose even more strongly and continued until March of the following year, constantly setting new records one after another.

Software sales outlets in various places have not been idle, and they have sent a large number of personnel to promote the official version of Windows + to users in a timely manner, including the "Internet Family Bucket".

And comes with a beautiful instruction manual.

In the manual, the four network companies are about to provide network services to customers through the Internet, and they are explained in detail.

On one page, there is also a detailed list of web addresses for more than a hundred websites.

Jessica struggled to squeeze out of the crowded counter, holding a coffee-colored paper bag high in her hand for fear of being squeezed.

In this paper bag, there are five or six large and small boxes, several sets of CDs, and instruction manuals.

She came out of the crowd, looked back at the hundred-meter-long queue, and was glad that she had arrived early, only waiting in line for ten minutes before she bought what she needed.

This is not in vain, she specially asked for leave, and came to line up early in the morning.

Jessica is not short of money, she is 28 years old this year, she is an administrative assistant in a sales company, and earns more than $8,000 a month.

Her husband works for an Internet company in Seattle and earns more than $50,000 a month.

The two of them are truly middle-class, not worried about eating and drinking, and very open to new things.

They have used their vacation time many times to travel abroad with their sons, and the villas they bought with loans have wide lawns and expensive furniture and carpets.

Jessica is dismissive of New York Web Technologies, which sells their Windows+ official version at a low price.

He came this time, mainly to buy this set of windows +, this operating system is too easy to use.

When her husband installed it on his computer, she was envious, so she deliberately eliminated her cute Apple computer and bought a Dell computer with an old-fashioned and heavy style.

As a wealthy Mi Chinese, she has a very deep sense of copyright, and it is not convenient because she already has a set of windows + at home.

Instead, I took a day off and came to buy a genuine operating system.

By the way, she also bought a Windows + official version with a "network family bucket", which is said to contain more content and services.

She'd heard of New York's Internet technology companies, which had been in the limelight last year.

But after Microsoft and Infinity formed an alliance, the major media focused on their cooperation and the two young rich people.

Several companies, such as the New York Network, have been temporarily forgotten.

However, as their advertised time for internet service approached, people began to be curious.

For the media's questioning, all the staff of these Internet companies were silent, and they were in a hurry to be asked, so they lowered their voices and said mysteriously:

"You guys wait, on August 4th, when the network is officially launched, the whole United States will be surprised!"
