One thousand one hundred and sixty-two chapters

Oscar is coming

On February 29, 2004, "Baidu-Yahoo" launched the "Vertical Search Engine" service to provide all users with faster and more convenient search services, so that all users can search for what they want in the first time. The information you want.

In the first time, the market responded to the "vertical search engine" service. For the majority of "Baidu-Yahoo" users, the "personalized search engine" service launched by "google" is not only coveted, and its search convenience and accuracy have tempted many "Baidu-Yahoo" users. It's just that they are used to "Baidu-Yahoo" and they are used to turning on the computer to see the icon and interface of "Baidu-Yahoo", so it is not like changing the search engine easily.

It can be said that people's habitual inertia is quite terrifying, which is why many companies are willing to spend huge sums of money to "enclose" the reason.

Now, "Baidu-Yahoo" finally launched this new "vertical search engine" service, which is undoubtedly a boon for all "Baidu-Yahoo" users. Many users compare it with the "personalized search engine" service of "google". In addition to the difference in the interface, the response time and search and search accuracy of the two are almost the same, but the performance in some details is slightly different. It's just different.

After some experience, many users accepted this new "vertical search engine technology" at an unprecedented speed, and listed it and "google"'s "personalized search engine" as the best in the search engine world today Of two search engine technologies.

"Google" headquarters.

"Segill, have you used the ‘vertical search engine technology’ of ‘Baidu-Yahoo’?" Larry Page turned on the computer and called up the page of ‘Baidu-Yahoo’ to ask his partner.

Segil Brin shook his head. Although he has heard that "Baidu-Yahoo" has launched a new "vertical search engine technology", he has not used it yet.

"Segir, the "Vertical Search Engine Technology" of "Baidu-Yahoo" and our "Personalized Search Engine Technology" are almost the same, only a little bit different." Larry Page said.

Segil Brin frowned. "Personalized search engine technology" was originally created by "google". How could "Baidu-Yahoo" own this technology?

"Larry, is there a ghost in the company?" Segil Brin had to doubt. You must know that when the "Baidu Portal" launched "Baidu Earth", it caused suspicion within "google", thinking whether it was a ghost within the company, or how could "Baidu Earth" and "google Earth" be so similar. "Google Earth" is almost the same as the earth. However, at that time, in order to avoid the same situation as when "ea" checked the ghosts in the Sims online, it was finally panicked. The Sims online has also been stranded so far, so "google" is absolutely cold and decided to slowly check whether there are ghosts in the Sims.

Today, the inner ghost of "Google Earth" has not been found out. "Baidu-Yahoo" has launched a "vertical search engine technology" that is similar to "google"'s "personalized search engine technology". If "google" is not There is a ghost in doubt. Moreover, Lin Feng once held 5% of "google" and was also one of the executive directors. This is one of the reasons why "google" is suspicious.

Larry Page shook his head. He doesn't know if there is a ghost. After all, he is responsible for the team responsible for developing this "personalized search engine technology". Based on his understanding of his employees, he will definitely not do such a thing. However, nowadays, the same phenomenon appeared again and again, which would have to be doubted if he did not doubt it. However, doubts without evidence are guesses, and guesses are inaccurate.

"Larry, what are you going to do now?" Segil-Brin said.

Larry Page shrugged helplessly. He just didn't know what to do, so he asked Segil Brin.

In fact, Larry Page and Sergey Brin did not know that "Baidu Earth" was described by Lin Feng based on the memory of later generations and was developed by "Baidu Portal". Although Lin Feng only knows its general function, in the IT industry, sometimes it is the concept that is important, not the technology to turn the concept into reality. Therefore, "Baidu Earth" and "Google Earth" are similar, it is normal. After all, its prototype was described by Lin Feng based on "Google Earth". It is indeed plagiarism, but "google" cannot prove plagiarism.

As for "vertical search engine technology", this is purely coincidental. In fact, this kind of "personalized search engine technology" or "vertical search engine technology" is a trend in the development of search engines. As the number of users increases and the amount of network information increases, it is only natural for users to increase their specific search requirements. As a search engine company, it is not uncommon to want to do something in this respect at the same time. It can only be said to be a coincidence.

Unfortunately, for "google", one coincidence is acceptable, but two coincidences are unacceptable.

"Segill, should we review the loyalty of our employees temporarily? Otherwise, if we continue like this, it is not a good thing that all our company's information is known by'Baidu-Yahoo'." Larry Page said.

Segil-Brin naturally wanted to find out this "inner ghost." However, now is not the best time. At the critical moment of competing with "Baidu-Yahoo" to capture the market, it is good to say that if you catch it, if you can't catch it, or even wrong people, it will be a blow to the entire "google".

"Larry, I can’t wait any longer. It’s not anxious to catch the inner ghost. We don’t know who it is or even if there is any inner ghost. If it’s really just a coincidence, it would be a big blow to us. Therefore, I suggest that it is better to wait and see the changes temporarily. We first improve the search engine technology, as long as our technology is more advanced than'Baidu-Yahoo', then it will be effortless to defeat'Baidu-Yahoo'." Lin suggested.

"But the ghost..." Larry Page said worriedly.

"In this way, you will be responsible for technology development, and I will catch the inner ghost. We will catch him if there is an inner ghost in the dark. As long as we catch him, we will have enough evidence to accuse Lin Feng of plagiarizing our company's products. , Not only can it be prohibited from permanently selling'Baidu Earth', but it can also be required to compensate a huge sum of money. If it can be compensated, then we don't need the third financing at all!" Sai Gil-Brin excitedly.

Larry Page nodded and decided that the two men would be divided into two groups, one in charge of technology research and development, and one in charge of catching the inner ghost. Although in this way, without the support of Segil-Brin, it will definitely have a certain impact on the technology, but it is absolutely difficult to feel at ease if you don't catch the inner ghost.

When "google" decided to divide its forces, grasping technology along the way, and catching ghosts along the way, Lin Feng appeared in Sagoramento, California. Today is the third court day for "Baidu Earth" infringement of "Google Earth". Although I know that this hearing will still be boring, it will definitely be the same as the previous two. After the long remarks, I will still choose to continue the adjournment again, and the hearing will be held again a few days later. After six or seven trials, the trial is almost over. Of course, "google" can still appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court, but at that time, I am afraid that it will not be able to ban the sale of "Baidu Earth" in the United States.

But since Lin Feng is in the United States, he still appeared in court. Anyway, Lin Feng has nothing to do. Now that "Baidu-Yahoo" and "google" are competing on a technical level, I can't help much technically, so it's better to listen in and show that my company attaches great importance to this trial.

As Lin Feng had guessed, the third trial ended boringly again. With the first two boring court trials, the identity of the observers who came to the scene for the third time has obviously declined. It is no longer the same as the previous two times, where merchants are gathered, all of them are super rich.

"Lin, why do you attend such a boring trial every time? Just send someone here. Anyway, it won't be over for a while. These judges are not going to discuss it again. Anyone with a discerning eye knows that this is'google' playing slippery. Head, these judges are just pretending to be stupid, why should you go crazy with them." Ellison said grimly in the court after the trial was over.

Lin Feng was speechless for Ellison's bold gesture. Indeed, this trial is very boring, and these judges are also very idiots, but you shouldn't say it in court, especially the judges and juries are still in the courtroom and have not all left. Now hearing what Ellison said, dozens of eyes shot over. Lin Feng believes that if his vision can kill, Ellison must have died thousands of times.

Of course, it's not about Lin Feng that Ellison was killed by someone's eyes, but if he was implicated and the jury decided that "google" won, then he would be wronged.

"Because our company is innocent and was falsely accused, so I attended every time, hoping that the law would return me justice! I believe that the American law is just!" Lin Feng had to pretend to be bitter. A deep look, a look of indignation and helplessness.

At this time, after hearing Lin Feng's words, the dozen or so angry eyes immediately closed back, nodded, and when they looked at Lin Feng again, they were already full of softness, no longer full of anger as before. But when he saw Ellison next to Lin Feng, his eyes became sharp again. Lin Feng suspected that if someone accused Ellison at this time, these judges and juries would immediately convict Ellison.

Phew, Lin Feng let out a long sigh of relief.

"Hey, how about it, Lin, I'm interesting enough, I'll give you a chance to behave!" After waiting for the jury and judge to completely leave the courtroom, Ellison hit Lin Feng with his shoulder and said with a smirk.

Lin Feng was stunned. After a daze, he realized that Ellison was acting deliberately just now! No wonder he would be so stupid to choose to anger the judge and the jury at this time. It turned out that he ultimately took the opportunity to influence the jury and the judge.

"Ellison, in this way, you have offended these juries and judges." Lin Feng said a little worried.

"Haha, Lin, you still don't understand American law. You can choose any jury or judge. I'm not bragging. As long as you are willing to use your brain and money, you can choose the jury that is most beneficial to you. Law. , It's just a game for the rich!" Ellison sneered. However, although he was extremely disdainful of the law, his voice was still instinctively lowered.

Lin Feng thought for a while and nodded.

"By the way, Ellison, I owe you personal love for what happened just now. But what did you promise me?" Lin Feng asked.

auzw.com "What's the matter?" Ellison was taken aback. He didn't remember what he had promised Lin Feng.

"I still have 24 tickets for the Oscars ceremony this year. Didn't you promise me?" Lin Feng stretched out his hand.

For this Oscars awards ceremony, Lin Feng promised to collect 108 autographed photos of movie stars at the "Second World Players Annual Meeting" so that they could visit the Oscars ceremony and watch the 76th Oscars. However, Lin Feng only got 10 tickets from Spielberg, but a total of 34 tickets were needed, which was 24 tickets short. At first, Lin Feng asked Ellison.

"Uh..." Ellison was taken aback when he heard the words. In the recent period, all his attention has been on the acquisition of "sun" and "Nvidia." Ellison really forgot about this casual promise.

"Ellison, you won't forget, right? If you forget, I will break my promise. This...how do you want me to explain to those lucky players?" Lin Feng saw Ellison hesitating on the spot, and he was anxious on the spot. Up. If Lin Feng couldn't get enough votes, then he would really be regarded as dishonest in the world. Although this is not a big deal, for today's Lin Feng, this dishonesty is enough for Lin Feng's competitors to take advantage of.

For example, "google", such as "Intel", there are so many rivals who are eager to show their ambitions in the online game market, and even more hope that Lin Feng will make a mistake. Once Lin Feng had something unexpected, they would have a chance.

Hearing what Lin Feng said, Ellison was also a little anxious. Although he is called a lunatic, he has always been a trustworthy man, and he always speaks one thing. As a result, he forgot this time. It was the first time for Ellison.

"Don't worry, Lin, I will get you 24 tickets!" Ellison said instantly, patting his chest.

Lin Feng silently watched Ellison, who had left in the wind, and could only pin all his hopes on Ellison. After all, Lin Feng is still a foreigner in the United States, and his influence and connections are far inferior to Ellison. Although this earth snake is a little crazy, it still has many friends.

Time passed by every minute.

"Boss, Chen Xiaowei and I and the 27 lucky winners have arrived in Los Angeles. I have arranged the 27 lucky winners. I will leave at 8:30 in the evening and go to the Kodak Theater." Wu Zhaopu said excitedly.

Wu Zhaopu is very excited to be able to attend the Oscars on-site awards ceremony. He can be regarded as a Hollywood fan, and he is extremely fond of Hollywood blockbusters. This time he can witness many Hollywood superstars with his own eyes. He himself is full of expectations. As for his girlfriend Chen Xiaowei, she also hopes to get to know more celebrities through this opportunity to pave the way for future corporate public relations or publicity. After all, in this world, the star effect is quite significant.

"Uh, Mr. Wu, I'm in Sacramento right now, and I will fly to Los Angeles right away. You will wait for me in Los Angeles. When we arrive, we will contact again." Lin Feng finished speaking and hung up the phone. From Wu Zhaopu's excited voice, Lin Feng could hear his desire for the Academy Awards. Even people like Wu Zhaopu are so eager for the Oscars to attend the on-site awards ceremony. Needless to say, the eagerness of the 27 players.

If Ellison cannot get 27 tickets by that time, the complaints of these people must be huge. At that time they were excited, but they could say anything. If it is used by others, it will be a blow to yourself.

Thinking of this, Lin Feng patted his forehead helplessly. He believed in Ellison too much, and who would have known that Ellison had forgotten this thing. Now Lin Feng was caught off guard, and there was no way to change it. Never let Lin Feng kidnap 24 stars, let him not attend, and make room for himself. Thinking of this possibility, Lin Feng shook his head again and again. This is crazy, not to mention that even if it is really tied, it is impossible to arrange 24 people to replace it. Wear it like that!

In the midst of headaches and helplessness, Lin Feng took a special plane to Los Angeles and met Wu Zhaopu. And tell the story again.

"What!" Wu Zhaopu cried out on the spot after hearing it.

Chen Xiaowei frowned.

"Boss, I don’t like this. Chen Xiaowei and I will not be present. We will give up the seats to others so that we can free up 5 tickets. There are 27 lucky players, so let them play one game Five winners attended tonight's awards ceremony. As for the remaining 22 players, we will give them some financial compensation or other compensation." After Wu Zhaopu thought for a moment, he immediately came up with remedial measures.

"No. These lucky winners will definitely be dissatisfied. After all, the winners who can gather 27 movie stars are enthusiastic enough film lovers. At the same time, the invitation to attend the Academy Awards has been announced. This way I can hear their desire for Oscars from their words. At this time, I am afraid that money can not be moved. Of course, if the compensation is enough, I believe they will agree. But it is difficult to guarantee that some people will not. After getting the compensation, they can talk nonsense. At that time, they only need to talk nonsense on the Internet, reprimanding our company for not accepting letter promises and using money to suppress people, which may have a lot of impact on the company's reputation. Of course, it will affect the company's reputation. The influence of “Two World” will not be too great. After all, the company’s reputation and reputation have always been here. Most players should believe in our company. But it’s a bit bad for the boss. Especially your “Baidu-Yahoo” has just merged and is seeking Re-listing, at this time, there can be no credibility problems." Chen Xiaowei analyzed.

Lin Feng had a headache.

"What should I do?" Wu Zhaopu asked helplessly.

Chen Xiaowei thought for a while, but there is no good way.

Just when Lin Feng and the three had a headache, Ellison called.

"Lin, this time I sold the boss's face, so I can help you get another Chapter 24 ticket." Ellison complained on the phone.

"Ha, Ellison, thank you. Thank you, so, tomorrow I will invite you to drink!" Lin Feng heard that this problem was solved, his whole body suddenly relaxed.

"Uh, no matter if you drink. However, Lin, these 24 tickets are a bit of a problem. They are not regular seats." Ellison's voice was a little embarrassing.

Lin Feng listened for a moment.

"Lin, you also know that the Kodak Theater can only accommodate 3,400 spectators. This seat is very tight. With only 10 hours left, the seats are already allotted. Therefore, I can only help you get 24 reporter seats. That's it!" Ellison said helplessly.

Reporter seat ticket? ——Lin Feng was stunned. There is a gap between this reporter's seat and the regular seat, but after thinking about it, it is not easy to get a reporter's seat. At least Lin Feng did not break his promise.

"Okay, Ellison, the reporter's seat should be the reporter's seat. Thanks a lot." Lin Feng finished speaking and hung up the phone.

"Well, President Wu, Minister Chen, don't worry, the ticket problem has been solved. The problem now is that we should choose a set of evening gowns. We can't attend such a grand event if we wear it now." Lin Feng said with a smile. .

Upon hearing this, Wu Zhaopu and Chen Xiaowei patted their foreheads. Yes, this is an Oscar, but it’s going to be on the red carpet. At that time, there will be reporters from all over the world taking photos. In case they wear too shabby clothes, they are in the newspaper, and they are rated as the worst dressed of the day. It's so shameless to meet people.

"That's all right, boss, let's go shopping first." Wu Zhaopu took Chen Xiaowei and left.

After waiting for Wu Zhaopu and Chen Xiaowei to leave, Lin Feng looked at the four girls beside him.

"We should also pick an evening dress, otherwise we won't be able to attend tonight." Lin Feng said.

Unexpectedly, the four girls shook their heads.

"What's the matter?" Lin Feng was taken aback.

"Hehe, Brother Lin, we have prepared our evening gowns a long time ago. You are really stupid. If you go to choose an evening gown and walk on the red carpet now, you will definitely not be able to pick the most suitable one, and it is extremely easy to hit your shirt. So, just come here. In the United States, Avril Lavigne, me and Jessica were ready for evening dresses." Li Zhiyou said with a smile.

Lin Feng nodded and turned to look at Lin Chiling, who also nodded at Lin Feng. For tonight's Oscars, she had already picked the evening gown.

"Okay, let's go, then accompany me to pick the evening dress!" Lin Feng said helplessly. Unexpectedly, I turned out to be the last person to realize it.

"Hey, Lin, we have already prepared your evening dress for you!" Avril said with a wink.
