Silicon Valley

(I will write less about emotional dramas in the future.)

Not to mention whether An Jiayi forgives Tian Shuai, but from the time they walked into the library together, the result seemed to be doomed.

Schwarzenegger's endorsement ad soon hit television with a grim image like his "Terminator."

The picture is full of metal technology, and at this time Schwarzenegger was typing on the keyboard, but suddenly turned his head and said coldly: "The future online chat software is ICQ!!!"

Schwarzenegger has a lot of fans, and after the advertisement was broadcast, the response was enthusiastic.

The number of registered users of ICQ has increased a lot.

In particular, a large number of young people who do not have a computer or access the Internet at home go to Internet cafes to register for ICQ. The first Internet cafe in the United States was built in 1988, but in the past two years, the development of Internet cafes in the United States has not been as barbaric as China. In fact, there are very few Internet cafes in the United States, even less than 1,000!

While Henry had lunch at a fancy restaurant in San Jose and walked around the neighborhood, San Jose finally had an internet cafe open! Henry paused and suddenly remembered that the development of Internet cafes in China was a boom. Is there no reason for America to develop so slowly? But when you think about it, it's not without reason.

There are too many Chinese, there are more than 1.3 billion, and the United States only has more than 300 million!

Moreover, the computer penetration rate in China is low, and the computer penetration rate in the United States is high. Therefore, the development of Internet cafes in the United States is slow, and it is only natural!

Of course, another important reason is that the Internet access fee in the United States is very expensive today!

For an Internet cafe with hundreds of computers, the bandwidth should be at least 50Mbps. 1Mbps is $2,000, so the annual Internet access fee is less than $100,000! In addition to rent, computers, computer desks and chairs, employee wages, electricity bills, etc., the expenses are too high!

Henry walked into the Internet cafe and counted, there were about seventy or eighty computers, but not many people surfing the Internet.

Henry walked to the front desk and asked, "Boss, how much is an hour?"

"$2.50!"

"The price is so expensive?!" Henry was surprised.

"No way, the Internet access fee is expensive, if you don't charge more expensive, Internet cafes can't make money..."

Henry was silent, and an idea flashed in his mind...

But before that, he also has to examine the situation of Internet cafes.

Afterwards, he opened an hour of Internet time, and turned on the computer in the Internet cafe. The system is windows3.1, which is more and more like windows95! Henry worked on the computer for a while and found that there were many games installed on the computer. Then Henry found the Netscape browser and the ICQ software. However, he found that ICQ was not installed on the interface of the computer next door...

Henry got off the plane, left the Internet cafe, and immediately went to Cisco.

Cisco is getting bigger and bigger, and before Cisco MCI can find a head, it will be run by John Chambers.

So, Henry came directly to his office and said to him, "Chambers, I just went to an Internet cafe and found a few problems!"

John Chambers nodded and looked at Henry, waiting for him to continue.

"I found that, firstly, there are very few Internet cafes in the United States, and secondly, the computers of Internet cafes do not have ICQ installed. The point I want to talk about is that when Internet access fees are expensive, Internet cafes have become an important place for people to access the Internet! If Internet cafes can provide I use it, then both Cisco and other companies under my name will benefit a lot!!! I just found that one Internet cafe does not have ICQ installed, so there must be more Internet cafes that do not have ICQ installed..."

"So, I decided to vigorously support the development of Internet cafes, and Cisco is the most important part of my plan!"

Henry paused, took a sip of coffee, and continued: "I named this plan the 'One-stop' one-stop service plan. For all Internet cafes that join One-stop, Cisco will provide modems, switches, routers, etc. The network bandwidth will be provided by Noah's Ark. The Internet cafe server will be provided by Dell. The price of a complete set will be 20% cheaper, and the Internet cafe will have to advertise the products of my company! Of course, like Nicholas, Global Online, Isearch , ICQ and other Internet companies will give you compensation, as for the amount of compensation, you will meet at a later meeting to negotiate!!!"

John Chambers thought for a while and said, "Other companies have no problem, Dell may need to communicate well!"

Henry nodded, expressing his understanding that Nicholas Group only holds 20% of the shares in Dell, and Henry is not enough to force Dell to do something...

"Okay, you go to communicate first. If Dell doesn't want to, then find another place!" Henry said after thinking for a while.

John Chambers nodded and replied, "Okay, I'll arrange this right away!"

"Yeah!" Henry said goodbye to John Chambers after drinking his coffee. Afterwards, Henry called Global Online, Nicholas, Isearch, ICQ, and the CEO of Noah's Ark, respectively, and explained the matter to them. Make it easier for John Chambers to move. As for the Dell company, it's a little troublesome to ask it to make a 20% profit. I don't know if I agree or not? Although Henry has said that he will make compensation, but thinking about it, it will definitely not be too much...

Dell's development momentum is very strong, has been promoted to the ranks of the world's first-class computer company! Naturally, his attitude began to become proud, and he fought with Noah's Ark in the server industry, but he failed frequently. This time, the One-stop plan only allows Dell to sell computers, but Noah's Ark sells servers. I think Dell will have some ideas!

In addition to the 20% profit, the biggest loss is still Dell. If it is willing, it will be strange! Of course, if you lose enough, you don't lose, but you earn less...

Henry is planning a trip to Japan and doesn't have time to deal with the One-stop plan himself. Tensions are growing in the Gulf, with several exchanges of fire on the border between Iraq and Kuwait. During the Iran-Iraq war from 1980 to 1988, Iraq owed debts to some Arab countries, including $14 billion to Kuwait. Iraq wants the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) to reduce oil production, increase oil prices and pay off debts after profits. But Kuwait has boosted its output, driving down oil prices in hopes of forcing Iraq to resolve a border dispute between them.

But how can Saddam's government endure it? As a result, the border often rubs off fires...

When the United States saw Iraq bullying its younger brother, it sent the frigate USS Britton into the waters of the Persian Gulf to make military threats against Iraq and support Kuwait. Therefore, oil prices have begun to rise gradually, and the Japanese stock market has been mourning! Henry has already made a lot of money by short-selling the Nikkei index, and when the Gulf War breaks out, the Japanese stock market will completely collapse. After making a lot of money, Henry can also close the net. Make money by investing!

In addition, the Soviet Union is about to disintegrate, of course, we must take the opportunity to make a profit!
