"The TCP/IP protocol has now become a network standard, and it is not impossible to use this communication protocol to build a new Internet backbone network. In 1986 in the previous life, the National Science Foundation (NSF) used the TCP/IP protocol to establish NSFnet, and finally Completely replace ARPAnet and become the backbone of the Internet! But... I don't know if the US government now allows companies to conduct commercial operations?" Li Zetian muttered.
He thought about it for a while, and decided to mention it to President Reagan. If he and the US Congress agreed, it would be good; if not, it would be fine. If it could attract the attention of the US government, it would be good for the National Science Foundation to establish NSFnet earlier. , at least to promote the development of the Internet.
Thinking of this, Li Zetian picked up the phone and dialed the White House number.
After five or six seconds, the call was connected.
"Hello, President Reagan, I'm Chronos Li."
"Hehe, Chronos, why did you suddenly think of calling me, do you have something to do with me?" President Reagan laughed.
"Yes."
"Oh, what's the matter?" President Reagan asked seriously. As the richest man in the world, since Li Zetian called in person, he must be very important.
Li Zetian asked, "President Reagan, do you know much about the ARPANET?"
"Hehe, you know, I am an actor, not a computer technician, so I only know a little about the ARPANET. The military, schools, research institutions, and enterprises can communicate through this network!"
"Yes. So have you thought about building a bigger network and getting more people to join it?"
President Reagan was stunned for a moment and said: "As far as I know, the investment and establishment of the ARPANET is very expensive, so only a very small number of people can use it now."
"Then am I willing to build this network?" Li Zetian said tentatively.
President Reagan pondered at this time, and did not immediately answer Li Zetian's request. After a while, he said, "Chronos, I will give you an answer after this matter is discussed in Congress!"
"OK!"
Just when Li Zetian ended his phone call with President Reagan, China finally joined the ARPANET in 1983, and communicated with foreign computers and networks for the first time, which opened the curtain of Internet construction!
…
After Li Zetian waited for a while, President Reagan finally replied to him and rejected his request, implying that the Internet is related to information security, and the US Congress did not agree to let him do it as a Chinese.
Li Zetian suddenly cursed in his heart.
Fuck your paralyzed US Congress, is it racist
At the beginning, Li Zetian's company was still small and could not feel the pressure from all aspects of the United States. However, when it developed to a certain extent, various pressures came one after another. The most obvious is that the US government suppressed Li Zetian in order to support other enterprises. Many of the government's projects have been handed over to these companies. And Li Zetian's company is assigned very few projects.
Li Zetian then asked whether the US Congress had plans to build a network.
President Reagan said that the cost of laying out the network is too high, and Congress has not completely decided. First let the National Science Foundation NSF do a detailed investigative report, followed by further discussions.
After finishing the call, Li Zetian said to himself: "It seems that the construction speed of the NSFnet network should be accelerated."
Li Zetian stretched his waist and sighed: "In the era without the Internet, it feels so boring! Build it early, and speed up the development of human science and technology!"
At this time, Li Zetian thought of China. The United States is developing so fast, how can China keep up
"Well, it's better to go to China to do investment! Investing in real estate business is justifiable, developing ordinary residences, apartments, villas, commercial real estate, high-end hotels, cultural tourism, supermarkets and chain department stores. Well, first set a small goal and start a' Wanda' come out. Money is not everything, money belongs to Wanda..." Li Zetian laughed.
Of course, the real estate company established by Li Zetian will definitely not be called Wanda Group. The name "Chinese Property" sounds so nice, but the company is a Hong Kong company. If Liu Luanxiong hadn't gone bankrupt in this life, the company would have been acquired by him and become an important real estate company in Hong Kong. .
Li Zetian actually pays attention to this Chinese real estate company. It was established in 1922. It is an old-fashioned enterprise with strong strength.
Right now, China and the UK are negotiating, the two sides have not yet reached an agreement, the future of Hong Kong is unresolved, people are panicking, and the stock market has plummeted.
Li Zetian has relations with the upper echelons of China, and the Chinese side very much hopes to get the support of Li Chengzhi and Li Zetian in Hong Kong, so Li Zetian knows much more about the progress of the Sino-British negotiation than ordinary people.
It is only July, and it will probably not be until next year that the Sino-British negotiation will come to fruition. Therefore, the Hong Kong stock market will continue to fall.
By the end of the year, Li Zetian will come to Hong Kong to search.
One of his goals will be to buy Chinese properties, and then use it as a springboard to enter the mainland.
In fact, there are quite a few people who have the same plan as Li Zetian, and Li Jiacheng is one of them. Li Zetian had read Li Jiacheng's biography and vaguely remembered that in the mid-1980s, "Cheung Kong Industrial" purchased a controlling stake in Hong Kong Electric Group. "HK Electric" is one of the 40 constituent stocks of Hong Kong's Hang Seng Index.
Now it seems that Li Jiacheng bought the controlling stake of Hong Kong Electric Group in this year!
However, Hong Kong Electric will be in Li Zetian's pocket.
…
Li Zetian happily hummed a song. The Umbrella Artificial Intelligence Laboratory has been roughly established. The United States, Hong Kong, and London have established Umbrella Artificial Intelligence Research Centers. In terms of artificial intelligence, they will no longer lag behind others.
He has now come to the Galaxy Network Company. The router has already been developed, and he has also taken a name like "Galaxy Router". People who don't know it think that the router can connect the entire Galaxy network together. hoho...
At this time, Tian Shuai and Zhang Yan learned that Li Zetian was coming, and hurried out of the office to greet him.
As soon as they met, Zhang Yan said excitedly, "Mr. Li, you are here!"
"Yeah." Li Zetian smiled and nodded.
"Mr·Li!" Tian Shuai came over and greeted with a smile.
Li Zetian also nodded to him.
"The Galaxy router has been developed, so I came to take a look. This thing will be the flagship product of the Galaxy Network Company in the future!"
"Mr. Li, please come with me to see this powerful router. With it, the networks in the university can be connected together!" Zhang Yan said, walking to the front to lead the way.
Li Zetian and Tian Shuai smiled at each other and followed behind him.
After a while, I came to the laboratory.
Zhang Yan took a "Galaxy Router", a rectangular white box with a simple appearance and two antennas.
Next, Zhang Yan gave Li Zetian a demonstration. He used the "Galaxy Router" to connect multiple computers in the company into a network, which could communicate with each other, and then connected two different networks into one network.
Powerful and stable.
Tian Shuai introduced on the side: "Mr. Li, the Galaxy router has entered the mass production stage, and a press conference will be held on July 30 to introduce our potential users, such as Fortune 500 companies, schools, research institutions, and even the military. Please come, it will be officially released on August 1st!"
"Well, this arrangement is very good." Li Zetian paused and said, "Up to now, the company's main products are only network cards and routers, and the products are too monotonous. Galaxy Networks is defined as a network equipment company. All network equipment products, Galaxy Network companies can produce, including hubs, repeaters, bridges, switches, routers, network cards, modems, fiber optic transceivers, fiber optic cables, etc.
Once the Galaxy router comes out, it is sure to be very popular. After the listing and financing, the company can develop rapidly. "
Since Galaxy Network Company involves information security and other issues, it is best to go public.
"Galaxy Network is going to go public?!" Zhang Yan's eyes brightened when he heard this, and he said excitedly, "Haha, doesn't it mean that I'm going to go to Nasdaq to ring the bell!!!"
