¡°The World Wide Web will be the most far-reaching and widespread communication medium in human history. It will allow its users to connect with other groups of people scattered in different time, space and locations on this planet. The number of people will be greater than in the history of human civilization. The best. The sparks of wisdom burn fiercely on the World Wide Web, and people's ideological realms can be sublimated, and even a person's mentality and spirit can be changed."
"Emotional experiences, political opinions, cultural habits, expressions, business advice, art, and literature will all be shared with zero investment on the World Wide Web. The future world will be a world of digital information, and you only need to be able to operate it Computer, then you can query the human resources you need, including content that was previously in books, television, telegraphs, or other communication methods.¡±
"Generally speaking, the World Wide Web is global and can realize communication among people on a global scale, achieve mutual understanding on a global scale, and cultivate sympathy and cooperation. Our planet will soon become a global village because of the World Wide Web. You, me, From now on, he becomes a neighbor, sharing what he needs, and imagining the world!"
Finally, the big boss Zhou Xingsheng came to the front desk and made the final speech. He kept waving his hands, expressing his inner fire and excitement, like a great man leading and creating an era.
There was a burst of warm applause from the audience.
A very small number of people are keenly aware of the earth-shaking changes that the birth of the World Wide Web will bring to the Internet and the entire world, but most people are ignorant. Even with Lin Xueyi's complicated explanation and Zhou Xingsheng's eloquent talk, they were still confused.
Zhou Xingsheng paid no attention to this. Only when browsers are developed, portals are established, and various web pages and websites spring up, will these people understand how important today's press conference will be. .
but. By that time, it is too late for these people to wake up, because those who woke up early have already intervened in this industry, and there is no longer any opportunity for them to develop.
Just like the reform and opening up in the mainland, the 1990s was the golden period. In the following period, except for the mixed Internet, other industries already had their own leaders, and there was no chance for latecomers to come forward. And when the overall situation of the Internet takes shape, people born after the 1985 will not even see the last glimmer of hope for success.
If you want to turn over successfully. To become a man of the hour, unless there is another technological revolution.
It is now 1990, and the Internet has just developed. The World Wide Web has just been born with Zhou Xingsheng¡¯s heavy investment. The next few years will be the golden age of Internet development. Many opportunities are waiting. It depends on whether anyone seizes them. Just live in it. Zhou Xingsheng is looking forward to it, even as the founder. Those who join this industry in the future will be his competitors, but he still wants to take a look. Moreover, it would be too boring if he alone dominated the entire Internet.
internet. It is a place where ideas and inspiration explode, and it should be colorful and colorful!
In fact, he didn¡¯t say a word in his final words.
Although the Internet can play a role in connecting people all over the world, it can also give powerful power to those careerists, conspirators, and oppressed people.
It's like a sword. A double-edged sword can hurt others as well as yourself.
Everything has two sides. The Internet is no exception. It has its benefits and disadvantages. It all depends on how people use it.
After the press conference, as Zhou Xingsheng expected, although it caused a huge response in the IT industry, with many world-renowned IT giants sending congratulatory messages and letters of intent seeking cooperation or inspections, it did not cause much shock to the outside world. .
Zhou Xingsheng had already anticipated this.
Today¡¯s computers are high-end electronic products. In addition to governments, schools, various agencies, institutions, and research institutes, they are also used by enthusiasts and wealthy people. For the vast majority of people, some cannot afford it because it is too expensive; some can afford it, but it is of no use.
Compared with the powerful entertainment functions of later generations of computers and the exciting Internet world, some of the entertainment functions of today's computers, such as games such as Assassination of Hitler, Prince of Persia, and Green Rabbit, are very troublesome to operate. Simple computers such as Minesweeper and Spider Solitaire come with them. Small games were only available after Microsoft launched the Windows system. Today's computers are extremely professional computers. Except for sending emails, people who don't know programming or are not proficient in English will not be able to operate them at all.
In addition, although the Internet has been around for some time, it is still very troublesome to communicate with each other.
The communication mentioned here does not simply refer to communication by sending emails, but other resource exchanges. Searching on the InternetFind the resources you need.
This process is very troublesome and laborious to operate. Most people don¡¯t know how to operate it because it is so professional.
The birth of the World Wide Web, to put it bluntly, was actually to solve this problem.
If the World Wide Web successfully occupies the dominant position in global Internet resources and unifies the world, the exchange of resources will become easier, individual users will start a frenzy of explosive growth, and the World Wide Web will truly impact the world and be remembered by everyone. and sought after.
But now, the World Wide Web has just been born. Let alone promoting it globally, allowing global IT companies to adopt World Wide Web standards has not yet been achieved even if it is promoted throughout Hong Kong. Naturally, it will not easily arouse public response.
Of course, if you want the World Wide Web to be successfully promoted, you must use a medium to truly become popular around the world: the browser.
With a simple browser, users only need to type in the other party's URL, and the browser will automatically navigate and feedback information, then display the other party's web page and see the resources they need.
The so-called one-click access to the world is simple and fast. Only in this way can we truly attract ordinary users.
However, thinking of this, Zhou Xingsheng also realized that there is actually another problem hindering the explosion of the Internet, which is the computer operating system.
Historically, it was not until 1995 that Microsoft launched the epoch-making product Windows 95, which enabled truly convenient computer operations, allowing a person who had never touched a computer to become proficient in operating a computer in just a few hours of study. The Internet The great era has truly arrived.
Everyone can use a computer, and with the addition of the World Wide Web and browsers, the number of personal computer users has naturally shown explosive growth. This is an unstoppable and majestic trend!
Xusheng Technology, Chairman¡¯s Office.
"What do you think of us developing a personal computer operating system ourselves?" Zhou Xingsheng asked Ma Youcai in deep thought.
"Developing an operating system?" Ma Youcai looked at him in surprise.
Zhou Xingsheng nodded helplessly and said: "Although the World Wide Web and browsers have made the Internet much simpler and faster than before, you also know that the operating system still has great limitations. However, if you wait until other companies, such as Microsoft ,Apple comes to open,,,,,,,,,"
Speaking of this, Zhou Xingsheng suddenly shouted "Ah", stood up, with a happy face, and laughed: "Hahaha, I'm really confused. Developing any operating system is just a waste of time and money. I How could I forget that I am one of the shareholders of Apple, even though I am only a small shareholder who can only listen in!"
He then remembered, what a shame, it seems like he is already one of Apple¡¯s shareholders.
Apple itself makes computers, and it is also a leader in the industry when it comes to operating systems, so we might as well take the opportunity to cooperate with Apple. Maybe, he can also use this opportunity to increase his shares in Apple, become the largest or second largest shareholder, and completely turn Apple into a subsidiary of Caishen Investment.
Of course, that¡¯s what he thought, but he also knew that becoming the first shareholder was unlikely. The U.S. government would not agree in the first place, let alone the American consortium behind Apple¡¯s shareholders. Unless he can unite with other consortiums in Hong Kong and work together to start a financial acquisition war.
Ma Youcai stood up after hearing this and looked at him in surprise.
Zhou Xingsheng is very rich and owns many companies, which Ma Youcai knows. But what I didn't expect was that Zhou Xingsheng was actually one of the shareholders of Apple. This news was surprising. Even though he was as calm as he was, he was still shocked at this moment. His boss was hiding very deeply.
After Zhou Xingsheng laughed, he turned to Ma Youcai and said: "The future personal computer operating system will definitely be a desktop graphical interface. There is no doubt about it. In this way, I will give you some suggestions on graphical interface operating systems later. You First gather people, and then develop the system based on my suggestions. You don¡¯t need to complete it all, you only need to complete a small part of the key technology. I will be of great use.¡±
As soon as these words came out, Ma Youcai understood immediately, nodded and replied: "Yes, boss, I promise to complete the task."
The meaning of what Zhou Xingsheng said before and after contacting him was very clear. Zhou Xingsheng wanted to use the semi-finished products they developed to negotiate with Apple and take the opportunity to expand their shares and voice in Apple.
However, Zhou Xingsheng said that he would give some suggestions on the graphical interface operating system, which made Ma Youcai feel uncomfortable.
In other words, Zhou Xingsheng has put forward many key suggestions from the World Wide Web, browsers, and portals that are still undergoing final testing. From the beginning he didn't believe itI believe, and finally believe, that I have witnessed Zhou Xingsheng¡¯s forward-looking vision on the Internet.
Now, Zhou Xingsheng can even give advice on the operating system?
"Peat, who is the computer engineer?" Ma Youcai thought with a guilty look on his face. He was so ashamed that he wanted to cry, and he also wanted to find a piece of tofu and kill him. But after thinking about it, I might as well forget it, he still has a lot of youth left in him. (To be continued)
