Back To 1995

  People are old-fashioned. After selling Netscape, Jim Clark has already retired, but he has no plans to let go completely. He still has several companies in his hands, including a biomedical company, which is also preparing to go public.

Mark Anderson also raised his ears. Song Yang has established a number of Internet outlets. In the electronics industry, he has also raised a banner. The new Alcatel mobile phone has introduced system, color screen, MP3, etc. The mobile phone for calling has become a new electronic product.

Panda LCD TV has also made the LCD and plasma battle in the TV industry, and the limelight has quietly shifted to LCD TVs. Plasma TVs seem to have better technology, but the cost is too high. It is far from mass production. , And LCD TVs have seen a faint hope after Panda TV. Samsung, Sony and other manufacturers have begun to turn to LCD TVs!

  From the Internet to the electronics industry, Song Yang has proven his vision, and now he has entered a new industry, Jim Clark, Anderson, even if they don't have ambitions, who doesn't want a piece of the pie?

  Andy Lake, president of ICNC TV station, also looked at Song Yang curiously. As a media man, he was better informed, but he knew that in just a few days, the technology industry was already full of turmoil.

Several major Internet giants have not yet made a decision, but many small Internet companies have already started new ventures, preparing to bet on electric vehicles and private space exploration companies. Many Silicon Valley venture capital and Wall Street institutions have also begun to prepare to enter the market. In the field, a new outlet seems to have appeared!

"certainly!"

   In the face of Jim Clark's question, Song Yang acted righteously, "New energy will definitely be the most important part of the future technology industry, including energy-related industries, which will definitely change in the future!"

  Song Yang didn't fool Jim Clark, not only him, even if other people came to ask, Song Yang also said this.

The energy industry is definitely a big piece of fat, including new technologies such as photovoltaics, shale gas, solar energy, etc., which can make a lot of money in the future. Like those who play photovoltaics, the photovoltaic industry around the world has seen the richest man and reached the top. Over the rich list.

This is absolutely, there is no flickering, but well, this thing is like the Internet, it is a burst of time, the market has risen in the past few days, and can become the richest man based on the stock price. After a few years, the market is not good, and photovoltaic products are sold. If you don't go out, it's not impossible to be the first loser. To put it bluntly, everything... depends on fate!

   "Of course, this may take some time. New energy electric vehicles will need to wait even more to replace gasoline vehicles!"

Song Yang said to Jim Clark "showdown", it depends on whether he dares to wait. Song Yang said that it will take time to wait. As for the time, whether it is three years or five years or ten or twenty years, it will not be possible. You know, after all, Song Yang is not an immortal. He can guess so accurately. He really has that ability.

   Jim Clark's expression was incomprehensible, and all kinds of thoughts flashed through his mind. The automobile industry is a pillar industry of a country. An industry worth several trillion dollars a year can provide millions of jobs with an annual salary of hundreds of thousands of dollars.

   If we can really develop a qualified electric car to replace traditional cars, then creating a giant company with a market value of more than 100 billion US dollars is not difficult at all!

However, all kinds of thoughts flashed through. Jim Clark suddenly sighed and touched a handful of gray hair. If he was ten years younger, it would be like betting on the Internet. He has the confidence to recreate the automobile industry like Netscape. A giant comes out.

But now, he is worth billions of dollars, has experienced power, been touted by thousands of people, and then fell to the altar, and he has competed with opponents like Microsoft. Jim Clark knows that in the automotive industry, an opponent like Microsoft is enough. There are as many as dozens, and he is not sure that he can recreate mountains and rivers in the auto industry, whether it is age, energy or worth, it is no longer allowed...

   "I believe in Song, but I'm old!"

   Jim Clark sighed and said, this action made Andy Lake and others on the side feel like a hero is twilight.

   But when the conversation changed, Jim Clark suddenly said, "However, Song, I am willing to support your decision, and if necessary, I am willing to invest in your new energy electric vehicle company!"

  Song Yang was stunned for a moment, then looked at the "companion" in front of him, and couldn't help scolding, Jiang was still old and hot, and Jim Clark was really an old fox, and he didn't change at all.

   Having said so much and doing some bitter scenes, in the end, he wants to invest in the company established by Song Yang, which is really a good plan.

  Jim Clark is an old man, he is not ready to go to the front line by himself, but if it is the most reliable to invest in an electric car company established by him, Jim Clark does not know who else to invest besides Song Yang!

  People in the technology industry are all big fools. Without exception, Netscape fooled a lot of people at the beginning, and only got a lot of investment. My own people know them best, and Jim Clark is an expert here.

Rather than handing over the real gold and silver swords to other big fools, it is better to give Song Yang a chance. Jim Clark also has a hunch that knowing electric cars is not so easy. This is not the same as the Internet. Same.

The Internet industry is empty and empty. He and Song Yang are both "seniors" in this industry. Before them, the Internet was just a concept, and there was no opponent at all, not even federal laws. , how to fool.

But the automobile industry is different. This is an industry that has been developing for more than 100 years. It is not a one-shot thing to replace the old car giants of America, Nippon, and Germany. The head was broken and blood, and how many US knives were thrown, it is estimated that they would not be able to fill the big hole.

   Listening to Jim Clark, the sound of the abacus that can be heard on the moon, Song Yang also smiled.

   "Of course, Netscape was the first company that DoubleClick collaborated with. It's a blessing to be able to continue to work with Jim now!"

Since Jim Clark is rushing to send money, Song Yang will not refuse. Whether it is electric cars or private space exploration, they are real gold-eaters, and they require uninterrupted investment for many years. Song Yang wouldn't refuse a big grievance. Burning someone's money is not burning. Anyway, it's enough not to burn the beautiful knife in Song Yang's hand!

Song Yang and Jim Clark raised their coffee cups and greeted each other. They were very affectionate when they saw their fellow villagers, but Andy Lake, Mark Anderson, Gallo and others on the side could see the difference. Everyone has their own thoughts, it depends on whether Jim Clark can take advantage of Song Yang, or whether Song Yang can cut his leeks.

   "Anderson," Song Yang suddenly turned his gaze to Mark Anderson, "I heard that you still lead the browser team at AOL?"

   Anderson, who became taciturn, didn't know why Song Yang suddenly turned his attention to himself.

  The current browser industry is divided into PC browsers and mobile browsers. The former is dominated by Microsoft's IE browser, and the latter is dominated by the Firefox browser under Saipan, which dominates the mobile browser market.

It doesn't matter whether the two sides make money or not. Anyway, there is some dominance of the family. Of course Anderson wants to counterattack back, but in a short time, this hope is very slim. Even if Case is not convinced by Bill Gates, he can I have to admit that Microsoft is a formidable opponent that no company can compete with.

   "The antitrust lawsuit is not over yet. Case is willing to continue to provide fees to the legal team. Netscape's battle with Microsoft is still not over!"

Anderson didn't mention technical matters anymore. It was impossible to beat Microsoft with technology. It was urgent. Microsoft could pull the brakes. Microsoft's antitrust lawsuit can win, and then dismantle the other party, although everyone knows that this is also very hopeless.

Microsoft's anti-monopoly lawsuit is in the midst of anxiety, and it is impossible to dismantle Microsoft immediately, but it is not easy for Microsoft to get out. Users, performance, etc., if using a broken Netscape browser can bring down Microsoft, it is not too profitable for Case.

  Netscape is now a chess piece, a chess piece against Microsoft and Bill Gates. Do chess players care about the feelings of the chess pieces?

Mark Anderson also understands this point. He is a **** against Microsoft at AOL. Case doesn't care if Anderson is a Silicon Valley hero, an Internet igniter, etc., but he was the president of Netscape, and his identity and status Putting it there, making him subservient to others and being a younger brother to others, Anderson is a little embarrassed. He was originally going to be the leader of the Internet martial arts alliance...

   "If you want, you can serve as a technical consultant for new energy electric vehicles, developing operating systems, artificial intelligence and even autonomous driving technologies for electric vehicles. There is no better software engineer in Silicon Valley than you, Anderson!"

  Song Yang touted a handful of Anderson, and in front of Jim Clark, he dug up Anderson's corner. He has already retired, and he can't pull Anderson, who is just 28 years old this year, to retire together.

Song Yang didn't say it explicitly, but the meaning of the words was very clear. If Anderson is willing to join Song Yang's electric car company that has no hair, then Anderson can not only take a position as a technical consultant, but also, Co-founder, not impossible.

Anderson really has a few brushes. He is the top software engineer in Silicon Valley. The media praised him without much moisture. Back then, he was able to single-handedly develop the initial version of the browser, but few brushes could not do it. .

  The most important thing in a traditional car is the engine. What is the most important thing in an electric car is the operating system and the battery ear. The former is even more important. Song Yang can't think of anyone who is more suitable to be a big animal for developing an automotive operating system than Anderson...
