Global Monopoly of Technology

"The Afarid browser has been favored by the goddess of luck, because behind it is Luo Sheng, and Luo Sheng owns Bluestar Technology and Azure Coast, while Bluestar Technology owns StarCloud, and Azure Coast has AOS and WOS operating systems."

Having said that, Pichai once again motioned everyone to look at the PPT.

"From 2009 to the beginning of 2015, these five years were when AOS and WOS grew rapidly and dominated the mobile operating system, and it was also when Afarid browser took advantage of the opportunity to grow all the way. to a decelerating trend.”

Pichai once again looked back and looked at everyone: "At present, the entire desktop browser field has formed a 'four-way hegemony' or 'one super three strong' pattern, of course, whether it is our Chre or Microsoft's IE or Firefox are improving, Learning from the competition in many ways, especially from Afarid, but Afarid is like Quicksilver, the superhero in Marvel..."

After that, Pichai shook his head helplessly.

The conference room was quiet for a moment, and Larry Page immediately picked up the rhythm of the discussion and asked: "Judging from Pichai's report, the market shares of Afarid and Chre browsers have steadily increased on the original basis, while IE and Firefox continued its steady decline."

Pichai nodded and added: "In the global browser market, it is difficult to articulate exactly how and to what extent the big wave of mobile Internet has affected the desktop browser market over the past five years. We are working on this topic, but there is no doubt that Afarid is the biggest beneficiary, followed by Chre.”

Eric Schmidt said immediately: "Simply put, the success of Afarid is to continuously attract more users with a unified experience across multiple terminals such as desktops, tablets and smartphones."

Although Schmidt emptied one of the three major traffic portals in the Internet field in the browser field when he was in charge of Google, he also lost the competition with Bluestar Technology in the field of streaming media online video, and the Android project was also rejected by the Cote d'Azur. Press your head.

But these failures can't deny Schmidt's contribution to Google. This name participated in the creation of a glorious era belonging to Google. This name has long been part of Google's technology legend. When people look back at the brief history of Google's development, Eric Schmidt is destined to be an inescapable figure.

Sundar Pichai nodded again and again: "Yeah, that's it. And Microsoft was left alone because of its missed opportunity in the mobile Internet wave, leaving IE alone and marginalized with the release of Windows 10 and Edge browsers two years ago. , IE has basically been abandoned and left to fend for itself, and our Chre browser barely has today's situation because of Android.

"

"Everyone, when the desktop browser battle has not yet settled, Chre still has a fighting force, but if the Afarid browser is allowed to develop for another two years, the follow-up road will be smooth, and its market share will inevitably reach 70%. %, no one will be able to shake its status by that time, and it is unlikely that anyone will challenge its dominance in the desktop browser field. Although it is difficult to stop it now, there may be a chance."

At present, Afarid browser has more than half of the country, and Microsoft's IE is already a thing of the past. From the Edge browser based on the open source kernel project of Bluestar Technology, it can be seen that Microsoft basically gave up and Bluestar in the field of desktop browsers. The competition of technology is tantamount to indirectly acknowledging the status of Bluestar Technology's browser boss.

No one wants to see Afarid dominate the arena, let alone see Bluestar Technology Group as the only option for consumers on the web.

Sergey Brin looked around at everyone, spread one hand, and said, "OK, everything that needs to be sorted out has been sorted out, So, what should I do?"

Pichai said simply: "You can't just allocate a sum of money to K Street through normal business competition."

The so-called "K" Street, whose real name is "K-St", ST is Street, which means street.

K Street is located in Washington, D.C., with Georgetown in the north and Capitol Hill in the east. It is a lobbying street, where a large number of think tanks and analysis agencies, lobbying groups, public relations companies, international headquarters, the World Bank, and the IMF have also landed here. , can be described as a street that represents the changing global situation.

Pichai’s proposal, of course, was understood by Page and others in the meeting, and they quickly expressed their opinions on it, and everyone agreed without any hesitation. The proposal to allocate 18 million US dollars was passed directly at the board of directors.

...

After three days.

This morning, Luo Sheng, holding a cup of morning tea, was alone in his private office, staring at the 4K high-definition large screen on the wall. At this time, a temporary video conference was in progress. Zhang Bowen of Bluestar Technology Group and other core layers Executives participated in the video conference.

The reason was the latest dynamic message posted by a tech giant from Silicon Valley on MicroBlog last night, and it quickly spread in the industry, and even many mainstream media in Europe and America were citing reports.

The person who posted the news is Larry Page, one of the founders of Google. If you just post a news, it will spread in the technology circle at most.

But this dynamic succeeded in making the just-launched "Knowing King" follow it, forward it, and leave a message.

That's different.

This is the reason why the exit of the circle caused mainstream media reports, and the core executives of Azure Coast and Bluestar Technology held a temporary video conference early in the morning.

Luo Sheng looked at the information on Wang's thread on the screen and complained with disgust on his face: "Hah... I originally thought that I would be able to pass the first quarter of this year in a safe and stable manner, but it turned out to be all January. Before it was over, I started tossing around, it seems that I was still too optimistic, I was stared at by the king of understanding, and there was a lot of trouble now."

Zhang Bowen said suspiciously: "Do you understand Wang? What is this?"

The other people in the meeting also had question marks on their faces, so Luo Sheng had no choice but to ignore this topic casually and return to the theme of today's meeting.

Larry Page's dynamic text on his MicroBlog is:

[Afarid browser has quietly changed the core part of the way the web works, it is almost infinitely close to the real monopoly of technology, and it gives Bluestar Technology the ability to influence the way all web browsing works, which is far beyond what most people can do In terms of consciousness, Afarid is a monopoly business under Bluestar Technology that should be split. But no matter what, we will fight for a truly open Web through Chre, and be prepared to sacrifice. 】

And understand Wang retweeted and left a message two hours after Larry Page posted this news:

[No one understands the harm of Bluestar Technology's monopoly to Quanmages better than me. He monopolizes too many fields, from mobile phones to PCs, video sharing, music, navigation, dining and entertainment guides and ratings, electronic book publishing, Video content on-demand stations, Internet finance, online books...]

Knowing that Wang reposted and commented on a wave, it seemed that he still felt uncomfortable, so he posted another angrily:

[Oh yes, they also have data analysis and consulting services for the company, he is really all-encompassing. When his big net is getting bigger and bigger, so big that your life depends on it for every move and you don't realize it, it means that it has taken over your life. This is the mess left by the previous term. No one is better than me. Know how bad this is. 】

After a while, Zhang Bowen in the video conference said with a sarcastic smile: "It seems that Google should be really anxious this time, and he didn't hesitate to play a trick like the Seven Severe Fist."

A dynamic message posted by a Silicon Valley tech tycoon on MicroBlog asked Luo Sheng to hold a meeting to discuss it because the situation behind the incident was too abnormal.

It is no secret that the bigwigs in Silicon Valley have a bad relationship with Xianwang, and almost no one supports Xianwang.

However, as one of the most famous tech giants in Silicon Valley, and the Alphabet company behind it is one of the top multinational tech giants in Silicon Valley, now it gives people a sense of harmony, which is intriguing.

Zhang Bowen said that it is not unreasonable for Google to hit a seven-injury punch, and there are two good reasons:

First, if Google flirts with understanding Wang, it will definitely make other Silicon Valley bigwigs unhappy and be regarded as traitors.

Second, Page took the initiative to propose a monopoly spin-off of tech giants. If Bluestar Technology North America was split up because of this, the tech giants in Silicon Valley would not be able to run away, including Amazon, Microsoft, and even Google themselves. Being split, this will undoubtedly make Silicon Valley's bigwigs hate it even more.

But from the standpoint of Alphabet, it's another matter. In one sentence: the enemy will enter my high ground to demolish the crystal, and labor and capital can't manage that much.
