——

January 18, Bluestar Technology Headquarters.

Zhang Bowen entered Luo Sheng's office and reported to him: "Mr. Luo, there is news from North America, and there are also relevant reports from foreign sources. Jeff Bezos, the founder of Amazon, suddenly attacked us."

Hearing this, Luo Sheng was also stunned for a while, looked at Zhang Bowen and said suspiciously, "Amazon?"

Zhang Bowen nodded and said: "On the morning of January 17, North American time, according to a report by The New Yorker, Jeff Bezos publicly questioned the data collection practices of Bluestar Technology Group in the media, and suspected that it should be Whether it cooperates with China's content censorship rules and restricts content viewed by North American users, etc., he also publicly expressed his hope that the North American intelligence department will investigate whether related overseas application products of Bluestar Technology Group pose a so-called 'national security risk'."

"In addition, Jeff Bezos also commented that the number of users of the international version of BlueSpace social networking site under the Bluestar Technology Group has exceeded 133 million in North America, accounting for 66.5% of the Internet users in the entire United States. is a potential counterintelligence threat that cannot be ignored, and based on these concerns, it is hoped that intelligence agencies will assess the national security risk posed by BlueSpace and other Blue Star Technology-operated content platforms in North America and report the results to Congress."

so direct?

What Luo Sheng hated most was this, even though he had long expected that Bluestar Technology Group would definitely face such a thing, sooner or later, he just didn't expect it to be so fast, and he didn't expect that Amazon would be the first to jump out.

"What surprised me was that the bald Bezos guy jumped out. I thought it would be Google."

Zhang Bowen saw that Luo Sheng was relieved to hear the news, but he attached great importance to this issue, and said worriedly: "Mr. Luo, once this kind of problem arises, it will be very troublesome."

In the eyes of the company's No. 2 person, Bluestar Technology Group can now deal with any competitor calmly and has the confidence to defeat the opponent, but it will be different if it is faced with the suppression of the North American authorities, you know So far, 80% of the company's revenue comes from global markets other than Greater China, and the North American market is the largest source of revenue, followed by Europe.

Luo Sheng nodded and said solemnly: "You are right, this matter needs to be responded to in a timely manner, one is to respond as soon as possible, and the other is that the board of supervisors of the group company needs to be further tightened to keep an eye on the senior management of those subsidiaries in charge of overseas business. Well, external pressure is secondary,

The real point of prevention is that internal executives should cooperate with each other or be caught in law enforcement. Once discovered and verified, the board of supervisors will not hesitate to start the recall procedure and then parachute the executives there. "

The board of supervisors has the right to hold an extraordinary shareholders meeting without holding a shareholders meeting, and in Europe and the United States, the power of the board of supervisors is greater in a company than in the mainland. It is precisely because of this that Luo Sheng will be assured of handing over the overseas business sector to him. Fully trusted foreign executives take care of it, but the supervisory board is absolutely its own.

As long as he doesn't act ignorant, it will be difficult for the old American to drive Bluestar Technology out of the North American market. 100% support, and secondly, for a company as big as Bluestar Technology Group, moving this company means moving the vested interests of many Wall Street capitalists.

Although the relationship between Luo Sheng and those friends on Wall Street is still not "hard" enough to be called brothers, it is only bound by interests, but then again, sometimes interests are bound, and this kind of relationship is even more iron than brothers. .

After explaining a few words, Zhang Bowen left the office to deal with the matter.

As for Bezos suddenly jumping out to attack, it seems that Bluestar Technology and Amazon have no grievances in the past, but Luo Sheng quickly understood after a little thought.

The reason lies in cloud computing services!

Obviously, Amazon is in a hurry. Luo Sheng invested 5.6 billion US dollars in the field of cloud computing services in one breath. Although Amazon was the first company to launch elastic computing cloud services, Bluestar Technology has only passed a few short notices. Follow up immediately after a month.

Not only that, but the investment scale is even fifteen times that of Amazon.

You must know that the current market value of Bluestar Technology has reached 150 billion US dollars, while Amazon's current market value is only 15.7 billion US dollars. In terms of market value, its volume is nearly ten times that of Amazon.

Luo Sheng has invested 5.6 billion US dollars into the field of cloud computing services, and the company's current cash flow is 12.8 billion US dollars, Amazon is simply unable to fight.

The ultra-large scale of cloud computing services is destined to be a large investment project. The current Amazon is not the Amazon whose market value once exceeded one trillion US dollars in the last life. The current Amazon is the real brother in front of Bluestar Technology.

Jeff Bezos wanted to stop Luo Sheng's crazy expansion, but he couldn't compete with his strength, so he started to play Zhengzhi in a hurry.

Luo Sheng had long expected that such a situation would definitely occur, so he was not surprised at all, and he was not nervous at all. Every money the company earned in North America was clean, and he was always waiting for the FBI to visit.

But having said that, everything has two sides, and it may not be a bad thing from another perspective. To some extent, this is a good publicity opportunity for Bluestar Technology Group.

By the afternoon of the next day, Zhang Bowen hosted an impromptu media conference to respond and make statements to Jeff Bezos' remarks.

[The official government of Huaguo has never asked its major platforms to delete any content, not in the past, not now, nor in the future]

[About data and information security. The data of all North American users is stored in North America, and backup systems are established for databases in Singapore and Switzerland. The data center is completely outside the jurisdiction of China, and these data will not be bound by the laws of China. 】

This matter has aroused heated discussions in the media at home and abroad, and the statement of Bluestar Technology Group has also been reported by the media, especially in the mainland, the heated discussion of this topic is even hotter.

Luo Sheng rarely speaks out in public, but that doesn't mean he doesn't speak out. This time he also commented on his personal media account, and specially posted a few blog posts on the international version of MicroBlog.

[Some of Jeff's remarks are obviously baseless and irresponsible slanders. His description of Bluestar Technology's entry into the North American market is obviously without any truth. On the contrary, we have prepared a large budget to build large-scale data in North America. Center to provide better network services and data security. In fact, the yield ratio we bring to advertisers is much higher than Google, because there is no such product on the market. Obviously, Jeff wanted to kill Bluestar Technology, but he would not succeed. 】

After the blog post edited by Luo Sheng was published, the attention was even higher, and the media reprinted the reports one after another. Some media even exaggerated the relationship between Bluestar Technology and Amazon. Bezos forged a beam or something.

But interestingly, an interesting thing happened.

Luo Sheng sent this tweet at night. He logged into the MicroBlog APP to edit the blog post on his blue phone. After clicking send, he threw his phone aside and went to sleep.

In North America, in broad daylight, about six hours after the blog post was posted, a Silicon Valley tech giant left a comment under his blog post, which contained only three question marks.

? ? ?

This big guy is one of Google's co-founders, Larry Page. He also has a social media account. He has also registered with MicroBlog for a long time, and has passed the celebrity certification, but there are not many fans. Luo Sheng is more than his. less.

A blog post by Luo Sheng also blew up Larry Page, and things became more and more interesting. Netizens who paid attention to the science and technology world were also the masters who watched the fun and did not think it was a big deal, and they all commented in a low voice.

"It's another famous scene in the technology world where the big coffees love each other, but this time it's not Jobs and Gates."

"So what exactly do Page's three question marks mean?"

"Paige: What's the matter with me when you quarrel?"

"It is suggested that Bluestar Technology simply acquire Amazon, and then fire Jeff, or send him to a bookstore to sell books, be an administrator or something. As one of the largest Internet technology companies in the world, there should be no problem in acquiring Amazon. , although I admit it's a bit rude..."

The number of messages gradually increased, and Luo Sheng also gained a lot of fans. Most of the melon-eating netizens expressed their distress for Google, who was lying on the gun inexplicably.

The industry is also quite concerned, and some Silicon Valley technology people also jumped out to support Amazon, and said:

[Without more Amazon action, we're all in for a brutal future where one person, one company, one platform, will be the only option, and that's too bad. ]

Originally, the media has attracted much attention from the media, and netizens who eat melons also like it. They expect the two sides to be more fierce, and maybe they will come out with fierce rumors.

Back then, when the two big celebrities, Jobs and Gates, were torn between each other, the scene and the smell of gunpowder were even worse.

However, Luo Sheng did not continue to pay attention to this matter, because at the moment, Wall Street has almost entered the calm before the storm.
