The Great Power of Times

Chapter 312: Yahoo and Google

Thinking about it, Li Zetian became more and more excited, even impatient.

If he does what he envisions, the speed of development of artificial intelligence will increase to an unbelievable level.

Therefore, for the next month or so, Li Zetian was integrating resources. The Evolution Robot Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, through authorization, allowed artificial intelligence to be written into the operating systems of Microsoft and Apple. And allow the two companies to make modifications based on artificial intelligence. However, both companies' AI databases must be shared with Evolver Robotics. Of course, if Microsoft and Apple were not Li Zetian's companies, Li Zetian's idea would definitely be impossible. The importance of databases is self-evident. Both Microsoft and Apple are big companies, and they would rather develop artificial intelligence by themselves than share databases.

In Li Zetian's plan, Evolution Robotics will authorize artificial intelligence to any company. However, as long as the artificial intelligence of Evolution Robotics is used, the company's AI-related data must be shared with Evolution. Robot companies, because the more data, the faster artificial intelligence can evolve! In addition, you can also use cloud data, computing, and storage technologies that only appeared in the 21st century. Many companies do not need servers. Evolution Robot can provide them with cloud services, so that they can also master a large amount of data!

Writing artificial intelligence into the operating system is not that simple, and it will definitely take a long time to develop, test and perfect. However, since there is already this cooperation direction, I believe that we will see different operating systems in the next few years.

Li Zetian will also often pay attention to this matter and fully assist in the development.

Spring grass grows year after year, outing in February and March.

In March, on the west coast of the United States, the sun is shining and the weather is exceptionally cool.

Li Zetian's family went to Hawaii for vacation, surfing, diving, and sunbathing on the beach for a week.

By the time I got back to Los Angeles, my skin was a little tanned.

Today, there are more than 50,000 domain names registered worldwide, the development speed of the World Wide Web is beyond imagination, and the web server developed by Sun Microsystems is selling well.

To Li Zetian's surprise, a browser actually appeared on the market at this time, and it was not developed by him. The developers are four sophomores at Stanford University.

"Nima, this is definitely caused by the butterfly effect!" Li Zetian muttered.

The World Wide Web is so popular that it is normal for someone to think of developing a browser.

"I can't wait any longer. If someone else takes the lead, it will be a big loss."

Li Zetian immediately called Dongfang Yuqin over.

"Yuqin, you go to quietly register a company called Netscape, and the product it develops is a web browser! In the evening, I will write a plan for you to discuss the development issues related to web browsers."

"Okay, I'll make arrangements right now." Dongfang Yuqin nodded and said, capable of doing things, vigorous and efficient.

So, two weeks later, in an office building in Los Angeles, Netscape was quietly established. The company's registered capital was as high as 5 million US dollars. The company started very high. There were as many as 50 outstanding engineers. When Dongfang Yuqin mentioned this person, Li Zetian was slightly taken aback, vaguely remembering that he seemed to be the CEO of BlackBerry.

"Being spotted by BlackBerry shows that this person is still capable," Li Zetian said secretly.

There are too many people paying attention to Li Zetian's investment trend, so he will not appear in Netscape again, so as not to attract people's attention and cause unnecessary competition. Just wait until Netscape develops and sell it to Microsoft.

There is still a big thing to do, Li Zetian said to Dongfang Yuqin: "At present, there are more and more web pages, and many domain names are difficult to remember. When people face a small computer screen, they cannot know which web pages they want to visit. . Therefore, providing search services will be the development trend of the Internet!"

Dongfang Yuqin nodded when she heard the words, feeling that what Li Zetian said made sense. However, she clearly did not recognize the value of search engines.

Li Zetian said slowly: "As far as I know, the teachers and students of the School of Computer Science of McGill University in Canada have developed a product called Archie. Users can search for the exact file name, and Archie will tell the user which FTP server can download the file. Documents. Although the information resources collected by Archie are not web pages (HTML files), the basic working methods of search engines are the same, including automatic collection of information resources, indexing, and retrieval services.”

"Mr. Li, do you mean to acquire Archie?" Dongfang Yuqin asked.

Li Zetian shook his head and said with a smile, "No need, I'll write the search engine myself! This time, you're going to register a company, the name is... It's called Google. After the development of my search engine is completed, you can help me recruit. A group of excellent employees developed the second-generation search engine on the original basis."

"Okay." Dongfang Yuqin replied, seeing Li Zetian's thinking look at this moment, he couldn't help asking, "Is there anything else to explain?"

At this time, Li Zetian was thinking, Google is mainly engaged in search services, is it the establishment of Yahoo and the development of portal websites? In the early days of Internet development, the value of search engines could not be reflected, but portals were a complete mess.

If you build Yahoo, wait until the company's stock price reaches the highest level, then sell it and cash out, you can make a lot of money!

If instead of establishing Yahoo!, but letting Google develop a portal website, Li Zetian couldn't bear to sell his shares. The development potential of the search engine is huge. As a traveler, how could he not know! ! !

"It's better to build Yahoo, fatten it, and then kill it. In other words, the portal website is not very useful in the later stage. You can see how miserable Yahoo is. In the early stage of development, Google relied on Yahoo to provide search services for it. The engine, grow itself. And before selling Yahoo, Google must have grown up, and fully fledged, established an unshakable dominance in the search field!"

After Li Zetian thought about it, he said to Dongfang Yuqin: "Well, in addition to establishing a company called Yahoo, to develop a portal website, I will also write a plan, and you let the recruited employees follow my plan, Develop a website. Also, it's important to note that Yahoo's search engine must be provided exclusively by Google!!!"

Although it is only 1988, since the development of computers and the Internet is much faster than in the previous life, and considering the research and development time, it is not too fast to launch a portal website now. Of course, it is often said in the industry that "the forerunners are basically martyrs", but what is Li Zetian afraid of, some are burning with money! ! !

Moreover, at the time of its upheaval, the former Yahoo company had a market value of over $125 billion.

Dongfang Yuqin saw that Li Zetian's tone was so solemn, she knew in her heart that Li Zetian attached great importance to search engines, she said, "Don't worry, I will explain your words carefully!"

"Well." Li Zetian nodded.

After Dongfang Yuqin left, Li Zetian turned on the computer and started writing a search engine. There is no need for an overly complicated search engine at the moment. He decided to develop a search based on manual classification and establish a directory navigation in a semi-automatic way. The user interface is a hierarchical structure. The home page provides several classification entries. Level down query, use it to find the information you need.

In the early days of Yahoo, such a search engine was enough.
