Chapter 318 Netscape Yahoo and Google

As he thought about it, Li Zetian became more and more excited, even impatient.

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

So, for more than a month, Li Zetian was integrating resources. The Evolution Robot Artificial Intelligence Laboratory authorized the artificial intelligence to be written into the operating systems of Microsoft and Apple. And allow both companies to make modifications based on artificial intelligence. However, both companies’ AI databases must be shared with Evolution Robotics. Of course, if Microsoft and Apple were not Li Zetian's companies, Li Zetian's idea would definitely be impossible to realize. The importance of databases is self-evident. Both Microsoft and Apple are large companies that would rather develop artificial intelligence themselves than share their databases.

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

Writing artificial intelligence into the operating system is not that simple. It will definitely require a long period of development, testing and improvement. However, now that this cooperation direction has been established, I believe 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 development.

…

Spring grass grows every year, and we go out for a walk in February or March.

In March, the west coast of the United States is sunny and exceptionally refreshing.

Li Zetian and his family went to Hawaii for a vacation. They spent a week surfing, diving, and sunbathing on the beach.

When I returned to Los Angeles, my skin was a little tanned.

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

What surprised Li Zetian was that there was a browser 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 murmured.

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

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

"Okay, I'll make arrangements right now." Dongfang Yuqin nodded and said, he was capable, resolute and very efficient.

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

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

Too many people are paying attention to Li Zetian's investment trends now, so he will no longer appear at Netscape to avoid attracting people's attention and causing unnecessary competition. Just wait until Netscape develops and then sell it to Microsoft.

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

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

Li Zetian said slowly: "As far as I know, teachers and students from the School of Computer Science at McGill University in Canada have developed a product called Archie. Users can search by entering a precise file name, and Archie will tell the user which FTP server can download the file. File. Although the information resources collected by Archie are not web pages (HTML files), the basic working methods of search engines are the same, including automatically collecting information resources, establishing indexes, providing retrieval services, etc."

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

Li Zetian shook his head and said with a smile: "No need, I will write the search engine myself! You should register a company this time, and the name... will be called Google. After the development of my search engine is completed, you can help me Recruit a group of excellent employees and develop a second-generation search engine based on the original one.”

"Okay." Dongfang Yuqin responded. Seeing Li Zetian's thinking look at this moment, he couldn't help but ask, "Is there anything else to explain?"

Li Zetian was thinking at this time, Google is mainly engaged in search services, should it establish Yahoo and develop portals? In the early days of the development of the Internet, the value of search engines was not reflected, but portal websites were very popular.

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

If Yahoo is not established, but Google is allowed to develop portals, and Li Zetian cannot bear to sell his shares, the development potential of search engines is huge. As a time traveler, how can he not know this! ! !

"It's better to build Yahoo, fatten it up, and then slaughter it. In other words, the portal is of little use in the later stage. Just look at how miserable Yahoo is. In the early stage of development, Google relied on Yahoo to provide search services for it. engine and strengthen itself. Before selling Yahoo, Google must have grown up and become fully fledged, establishing an unshakable dominance in the search field!"

Li Zetian thought about it and said to Dongfang Yuqin: "Well, we also need to establish a company called Yahoo to develop a portal website. I will also write a plan. You will ask the employees to be recruited according to my plan. Develop a website. In addition, it is important to note that Yahoo’s search engine must be exclusively provided by Google!!!”

Although it is only 1988, since the development of computers and the Internet is much faster than in previous generations, and including the research and development time, it is not too fast to launch the portal now. Of course, it is often said in the industry that "pioneers are basically martyrs", but what is Li Zetian afraid of? He has plenty of money to burn! ! !

Moreover, when Yahoo was disrupted in its previous life, its market value exceeded US$125 billion.

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

"Yeah." 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 manual category directory search and establish directory navigation in a semi-automatic way. The user interface is a hierarchical structure. The homepage provides several classification entries, and the information is placed under the directory one by one. Level down query, use it to find the information you need.

When Yahoo was founded, such a search engine was sufficient.
