The personal income tax in the United States is one of the main taxes, but for Li Zetian, he has "zero" wages in the company under his own name, and the personal income tax is almost zero.
So, the United States can only collect corporate income tax.
However, it is still difficult for the United States to collect taxes on companies outside the United States.
"The US Department of Justice is so arrogant, don't ask me to go back in the future!"
There was a contemptuous smile on Li Zetian's lips. Since the United States wants to curb my development, well, I will develop in other countries. In this world, Europe and Asia are not short of talents.
In recent years, the United States has been declining, and the competitiveness of products is not good. Li Zetian decided to make him worse.
Subsequently, under the order of Li Zetian, the gene technology company terminated the acquisition.
Immediately afterwards, R&D centers were established all over the world, and even pharmaceutical factories were established in other countries.
In addition, Li Zetian formulated a global strategic plan to establish branches and factories outside the United States for other companies under his name.
…
A month later, with the help of Li Zetian, the Hong Kong government successfully applied for a root domain name server.
At present, the United States and Europe do not pay attention to the root domain name server, which makes Li Zetian take advantage of the loophole.
When the news reached Li Zetian's ears, he couldn't help laughing proudly, feeling very fulfilled.
"Hehe, in the past life, things that the whole of China could not do was won by me so easily. Is it a blockhouse? I feel like I'm a blockhouse!!! Hong Kong will return to China in 1997, and Hong Kong has a root domain name server. It is equivalent to China owning the root domain name server. The Chinese government should give me a Chinese contribution award!”
Li Zetian was in a happy mood, went to the wine cabinet, took a bottle of 82-year-old Lafite, and poured himself a glass of red wine. He shook the red wine glass subconsciously, thinking about what to do next.
Under the influence of his butterfly effect, the development of computers and the Internet far exceeded the previous life. Li Zetian does not want to wait for the development of the Internet slowly, and promoting the rapid development of the Internet is what he likes to do now.
Now, money is nothing to him.
He has huge funds, contacts and various resources, coupled with the control of future development trends, making money is nothing to him at all.
It is his purpose to change the world.
It is his interest to create new technologies that he has not yet seen in the future.
"It's not the law that drives history, it's money, and it can only be money!"
Over the years, Li Zetian has a deep understanding of the wise words of financial oligarch JP Morgan!
With the money, he acquired ASML and invested heavily in the research and development of more advanced lithography machines; with the money, he acquired Applied Materials and developed more advanced chip production equipment, thus breaking Moore's Law and in a shorter time. More powerful chips were developed.
In any laboratory, the existence of computers can be seen, and supercomputers with powerful computing power are used for scientific research, and the research and development speed is many times more powerful than ordinary supercomputers!
The existence of computers has driven the development of the entire technology industry.
The heart of a computer is the chip.
The core of the chip is the production equipment and materials!
The rapid development of the Internet has promoted the development of computers and chips to a certain extent.
"E-mail and BBS already exist, but the most important things in the Internet - the website and the World Wide Web have not yet been born!" Li Zetian took a sip of wine and murmured, "Maybe it's time to develop them! However, before that, we need to go to Take a trip to Sun Microsystems and let them develop a web server!"
…
The world does not know that an invention that changed the world was decided by Li Zetian so lightly.
The next day, Li Zetian came to Sun Microsystems.
He ordered the company's key leadership to come to the conference room for a meeting.
When everyone came to the conference room, their hearts were full of doubts.
"Andy Becktosen, what exactly did Mr. Li call us for?"
"Oh, how did I know... I just got the news too."
"William Nelson Joy, do you know anything?"
"I don't know, but I guess it should be a very important thing!"
"… "
"Mr. Li, everyone is here." Sun Microsystems CEO said to Li Zetian.
Li Zetian nodded, then looked at everyone, smiled and said, "Hello everyone, I am calling you here. There is indeed something very important to announce!"
After a pause, Li Zetian glanced at everyone and asked, "Do you know about the Internet?"
Everyone nodded.
"Know!"
"The word Internet was first coined by Sprint, and it is said that Mr. Li was the first to utter it."
"The Internet is a very broad network that unites ARPANet, NFSNet, and SprintNet, Sprint's nationwide digital fiber optic network!"
"… "
Li Zetian nodded and smiled: "Well, very good, since you all know the Internet, do you recognize the value behind the Internet?"
This question stumped everyone for a while.
Sun Microsystems' main products include graphics workstations, minicomputers, servers, and supercomputers. The current servers are mainly enterprise-level servers, which need to process a large amount of data, high processing speed and high reliability requirements for large enterprises and important industries, such as finance, securities, transportation, post and telecommunications, communications and other industries. Generally speaking, it is a database server . As for the Web server, there is no such concept yet.
The development of the website requires a web server!
At the same time, the relevant web page writing language-Hypertext Markup Language and Hypertext Transfer Protocol are also needed.
Li Zetian looked at everyone's thoughtful expressions, and couldn't help but smile slightly, it was time to pretend to be forced.
Next, Li Zetian spoke up. He ordered someone to insert the CD-ROM he brought into the computer's CD-ROM, and then connected the projector to play the PPT he made with him last night.
While playing, Li Zetian explained.
"It won't be long before the Internet will connect the whole world. People can learn about the world's news and current affairs on the Internet, browse text, pictures, and even videos on the Internet, and chat and communicate with relatives and friends on the Internet. The Internet will completely change people way of life!"
"If there are 1 billion people in the world using the Internet, how huge is the data circulating on the Internet? Isn't it a huge business opportunity for Sun Microsystems? Because we can provide data storage servers!! !"
Everyone's eyes lit up when they heard this.
Li Zetian smiled and said: "So far, the Internet has not fully demonstrated its charm. Although there is e-mail and BBS, it has not realized the functions I just mentioned. There is no way in the world, we need to develop We at Sun Microsystems will be this trailblazer! Now please pay attention, what I'm about to talk about will be the greatest invention of the Internet!!!"
As soon as the voice fell, everyone looked at the projection attentively, with excitement and excitement on their faces. They all know that Li Zetian is a super genius and has invented many excellent products. Right now, his tone is so solemn, he must have invented something extraordinary! Today, if such things are handed over to Sun Microsystems to develop, it will undoubtedly make Sun Microsystems a lot of money, and everyone will also make a fortune!
Li Zetian organized the language and said: "Everyone knows that data is spread on the Internet, so have you thought about saving the data in the form of a book page, because it is used on the Internet, it can be named 'Web page'. In this way, the disseminated data can be clearly displayed on the web page, which facilitates communication, information exchange and information inquiry on a global scale…”
As soon as Li Zetian's voice fell, it seemed as if a window had been opened, making everyone suddenly realize!
"Wonderful, this is simply wonderful. In this way, a web page can save a lot of data, and it is simple and clear to browse."
"Yeah, I'm afraid you can put the news from the newspaper on the web page!"
"Hehe, isn't the newspaper industry about to collapse?"
"… "
The crowd was inexplicably excited and talked endlessly.
Li Zetian squeezed his hands, signaling everyone to be quiet, and then smiled: "Writing a web page requires a special language, which I call a hypertext markup language. In addition, in order to achieve global information exchange, a hypertext transfer protocol must be developed!!! Sun Microsystems products have servers, so everyone should also know that data on web pages requires a browser!"
The company's chief scientist, William Nelson Joy, couldn't help but say, "Tens of thousands of web pages means that web servers are going to sell out!!!"
Li Zetian smiled at him, "Yes, the greater the number of web pages, the more web servers are needed!"
Then, Li Zetian continued to introduce the relationship between web pages and websites, domain names and the www symbol at the beginning.
www is called the World Wide Web, which is a collection of countless web sites and web pages based on the www hypertext markup language and hypertext protocol. Whenever a user wants to access a website, he must write www at the beginning of the domain name.
At this time, William Nelson Joy suddenly thought of something and said excitedly: "Mr. Li, if we apply for a patent for the WWW, then we can charge a patent fee for each website!"
As soon as these words came out, many people in the audience agreed, as if they had discovered a cash cow!
Li Zetian shook his head and said solemnly: "This is not possible! If WWW charges, the development speed of the Internet will inevitably slow down, the speed of websites will definitely decrease, and fewer servers will be needed. In addition, www is only a communication standard, other The company may develop standards such as wwa, wwb, wwc, etc., resulting in a website with more than ten communication standards, which is bound to be unfavorable to the development of web servers. We should enlarge our vision, as long as the cake is bigger, and we You are a standard setter, are you worried that our servers are not making money?"
After Li Zetian finished speaking, everyone nodded and gave Li Zetian a look of admiration.
"Oh, Chronos Li deserves to be the richest man in the world, and what he sees is really different from others!"
William Nelson Joy was slightly embarrassed, and said to Li Zetian: "Mr. Li, you are still smart and have far-reaching vision!!!"
Li Zetian smiled lightly: "It's nothing. Before I came, I thought more about these issues than you. By the way, I will not participate in the hypertext markup language and hypertext transfer protocol. Sun Microsystems must be able to Complete it independently, and then develop the corresponding web server!"
"Mr. Li, don't worry, there is no problem!!!" William Nelson Joy assured that Li Zetian had pointed out the direction of development for them, and the development of technology was not difficult.
Li Zetian nodded. For Sun Microsystems, which is full of talents, it is really not difficult to develop these, but people did not expect it.
The WWW in the previous life was developed by one person.
When Li Zetian left the gate of Sun Microsystems, he paused and looked back at the company building. The future of the Internet is here!
Back in the car, Li Zetian secretly analyzed that it was already September, and he would be able to complete the development of WWW next year, and successfully launch the world's first website! However, there is a question that makes Li Zetian worth considering. What kind of website is the first website launched
Web portals? Does the first website still need to connect to other websites
News site? It seems that most of the first people to go online were computer and Internet hobbyists, perhaps not interested in news.
Technical exchange forum? It seems possible...
"The first website, I don't expect it to grow! However, its existence can pave the way for other websites and advertise. When there are more websites in the future, a website similar to Yahoo will be established." Li Zetian suddenly shook his head and smiled, "Alas, It's too early to say this... Thinking about developing a browser is the right thing! If you can monopolize the browser market, pop-up recommendations, mandatory binding, and recommending your own website are like playing?"
When Li Zetian thought of browsers, he thought of the battle between Netscape and Microsoft.
Right now, Microsoft is already a company under its own name. Are they going to kill each other in the future? Microsoft's operating system monopolizes the market, and IE is bound to the operating system and is in an invincible position. Even if he established the Netscape browser company himself, he might not be able to handle Microsoft.
"Establish the Netscape browser company, and then sell it to Microsoft. Microsoft has to spend billions of dollars, and they have to accept their own favors, haha..." Li Zetian secretly smiled.
The combination of e-mail, operating system and office suite is enough for Microsoft to achieve the glory of its previous life. Microsoft is a listed company, and Li Zetian is only one of the major shareholders. Li Zetian is not obliged to give up a project as good as Netscape browser to Microsoft.
"Mr. Li, why are you in a daze?" Dongfang Yuqin saw that Li Zetian had been looking out of the car window, and couldn't help pushing his arm.
Li Zetian smiled and said: "It's nothing, I just feel that with the advent of the Internet age, my worth is going to skyrocket..." After a pause, Li Zetian added, "I want to be truly rich and rival the country!!!"
Dongfang Yuqin smiled "pochi": "You are already rich enough to rival a country, richer than many, many countries!"
"What small countries count, I am richer than the US government!"
Dongfang Yuqin was stunned, thinking that Li Zetian was joking, how could there be a richer businessman than the US government!
Li Zetian pulled Dongfang Yuqin into his arms, approached her face, and said softly, "Don't you believe it?"
"I believe in you!" Dongfang Yuqin stretched out her finger and pressed Li Zetian's forehead.
"Well, I did brag..." Li Zetian laughed.
