Global monopoly of technology

The biggest purpose of coming to participate in this forum conference is that Luo Sheng hopes to promote the concept of cloud computing through his current influence in the industry. As for other exchanges, it is basically a bluff.

At present, there are really not many domestic players who can afford cloud computing services. There are only four players in the count. Unless the national team enters the game, the probability of this is mostly not high.

Judging from the situation at the forum, in the early development and development stage of cloud computing services, apart from the first Bluestar Technology Group to eat crabs, the second one is probably only Ari.

This does not seem to have changed much from Luo Sheng's last life.

...

While Luo Sheng set off to return to the company that night, in the Western Hemisphere during the day, some people in Silicon Valley were paying attention to the exchange meeting of the IT Leaders Summit Forum in Pengcheng.

And the people who follow are also very big people, because Luo Sheng's participation has aroused the curiosity of many people in Silicon Valley, and his influence in Silicon Valley cannot be underestimated.

Google headquarters.

Generally speaking, when you mention a well-known company, the first impression is always the founder of the company, just like Jobs to Apple, Luo Sheng to Bluestar Technology, Ma in general to Ari and so on.

But when it comes to Google, people’s first impression is not Larry Page or Sergey Brin, the two co-founders.

It's the name Eric Schmidt.

Eric Schmidt, now 51 years old, is the current head of Google. His life experience is legendary. He holds a bachelor's degree in electrical engineering from Princeton University and a doctorate in computer science from the University of California, Berkeley.

Before entering Google to take charge of this star company in the IT industry, he used to work at Bell Labs, which gave birth to 11 Nobel Prizes in Physics. He used Java as a market weapon to help Sun Computer Sun Microsystems develop at a high speed and improve the Internet The system company Novell was rescued from the brink of life and death and turned a profit.

It took a lot of effort for Larry Page to invite the big man to Google. After joining the company to take charge of the young Google, he quickly expanded the Silicon Valley technology company with only 200 employees in just two years. After reaching the 1,000-person level or above, the concept of Google has not been lost during the expansion process, and the high-quality products have always been maintained.

In Luo Sheng's previous life, the Android system was also born when Eric Schmidt was in charge of Google.

Once had a resume at Sun Computer Sun Microsystems, Eric Schmidt had a great fate with cloud computing services. In Luo Sheng’s previous life, the concept of [Cloud Computing CloudComputing] was actually first proposed by him. of.

It's just in this era and this world.

Luo Sheng grabbed his way, leaving others with nowhere to go.

Nevertheless, it made Eric Schmidt pay more attention to cloud computing. Luo Sheng gave a speech and a symposium at the Pengcheng IT Summit Forum yesterday. The head of Google at the time was the first Time has been paid attention.

In fact, when Bluestar Technology Group announced that it would spend US$5.6 billion to build 12 large data centers, Eric Schmidt was already paying attention.

At this time, Google’s internal core layer is holding a meeting. Eric Schmidt, Larry Page, and Sergey Brin are all present. They discussed the company’s recent performance issues and also discussed The pressure of technology.

But the real core of this meeting today is to discuss cloud computing.

"Strictly speaking, Amazon is the first company to launch related services. Jeff launched an elastic computing cloud service in March." Sergey Brin said.

"Compared with Bluestar Technology Group's huge investment of US$5.6 billion, Amazon's scale is too small, as small as... in short, too small." Larry Page also spoke.

The core managers at the conference have already seen Luo Sheng's speeches and the views on cloud computing at the symposium. Although they basically don't understand, there are professional translators who have processed the video.

At this time, the elder Eric Schmidt spoke earnestly: "Luo Sheng, who is in charge of the Bluestar Group, is a figure that should not be underestimated. Of course, to this day, Silicon Valley cannot underestimate this technology giant from across the ocean. , It’s just that I didn’t expect him to know so much about cloud computing, and he has invested so much in this field unswervingly."

You can hear the surprise and appreciation from the words of the head of Google at the time. Luo Sheng first proposed the concept of cloud computing, which is called cloud computing in China. In Silicon Valley, it is [CloudComputing]. Widely spread, now everyone in this field will quote the word [cloud computing CloudComputing], and a very well-placed term, naturally it has become a convention.

"What do you think of cloud computing? Eric." Larry Page asked, looking at him.

At Google, I am afraid that no one has more say in the field of cloud computing than Eric Schmidt. He thought about it for a while before he made a speech.

"I agree with Luo Sheng's cloud computing concept. Judging from the cloud computing described by him, this is a new computing method formed by a combination of a variety of existing computer technologies and methods. It is very vivid. It shows the goal of shifting from client computers to cloud computing, or from autonomous computing to on-demand flexible computing."

Schmidt looked at the audience and continued: “The cloud separates applications and information resources from the underlying infrastructure and mechanisms used to carry them. The cloud also strengthens writing, agility, scalability, and usability. Through optimized, The ability to use more efficient computing resources to reduce the overall cost of ownership of the IT industry may be a revolutionary change for the entire IT industry and the Internet."

Peppa leaned on the boss chair and held his mouth in one hand, and said in a deep voice, "According to this logic, more specifically, the cloud, which describes what Luo Sheng calls a "resource pool" of computing, network, information, and storage. Use of services, applications, information, and infrastructure?"

Schmidt nodded affirmatively: "Yes, these components can be services, applications or infrastructure, etc., which can quickly complete planning, preparation, deployment, and recycling, and can quickly expand or reduce capacity to provide on-demand and similar utilities. The distribution and consumption patterns of calculations."

Sergey Brin also spoke afterwards: "So, Bluestar Technology Group may also invest more money to build more super-large data centers? Far more than 12?"

Schmidt nodded again: "Yes, it's far more than that. Internet users are continuing to skyrocket, and data will skyrocket accordingly."

A vice president who attended the meeting said: "Will Google enter this field?"

Another participant went on to speak: "The concept of cloud computing has already come out in the age of Sun, and it will still be the same after so many years. If it is still the same in another ten or twenty years, I am afraid that it will be lost if you invest in it. The Star Group is really crazy. If it weren't for the first quarter report to turn the tide, I'm afraid it's not as good as Yahoo now."

Eric Schmidt couldn't help but look at the executive who spoke: "Is Yahoo so in your eyes that you can't help but hit it? Although it has fallen, it is now a technology company with a market value of 50 billion and still owns one of the giants. posture."

The speaker shrugged.

At this time, Larry Page said: "I very much agree with Luo Sheng's statement that the cost of trial and error is far less than the cost of making mistakes. Google must enter the cloud computing field."

Most of Google’s executives who attended the meeting couldn’t help but nod their heads. These words are more profound from Google. Yahoo’s rejection of Google is a big mistake, and it is now facing a severe survival crisis. If Yahoo had accepted Google, it might be today. A technology giant on par with Microsoft, even if Google did not succeed, the cost of trial and error paid by Yahoo now is not worth mentioning.

It hurts even to see it.

Page’s remarks undoubtedly set a tone. Google must have entered the field of cloud computing. Now this field, Amazon is doing it, but the scale is relatively small, and the volume of Amazon is there. Jeff Bezos is even now. Want allin to attack, just like that.

The second player is Bluestar Technology Group, Luo Sheng.

Although it is a step slower than Amazon, it is actually about a month away. It can be ignored. What cannot be ignored is the scale of Bluestar technology investment.

The scale of investment is horrible, almost 15 times as much as Amazon's launch of its elastic computing cloud service in March.

Page continued: "I don't know where Mr. Luo Sheng's self-confidence is, but Google obviously can't be so risky. The risk is too great."

There is no way, and Google’s performance this year was not as good as expected, and the stock price plummeted.

When Luo Sheng announced his massive entry into the cloud computing field, the market value of the Bluestar Technology Group continued to plunge. If it weren't for the first quarter report to be extremely eye-catching, it would be difficult to pull it back and set new highs.

The rise of Bluestar Technology has taken away many advertisers from Google. This is an indisputable fact. The performance is not as good as expected is the best proof.

If you play like Luo Sheng at this time, it may be that Google’s market is worth falling below the 100 billion mark, or even being overtaken by Bluestar Technology. You must know that the market value of Bluestar Technology is second only to Google among technology companies. The difference between the two is nearly 30 billion U.S. dollars. This is not a small gap, but it can't stand the momentum of Bluestar Technology.

The key is that Google has the last financing this year. When it was IPO, it was split three times at one time. Luo Sheng just learned the operation of Google, so Google now dare not bet on cloud computing services like Luo Sheng.

Schmidt finally said: "Then start at $500 million to ensure that Google will not miss out on cloud computing opportunities if it really breaks out."

Everyone nodded. This is the best strategy for Google. First take a pit to see the situation. Luo Sheng is the first to eat crabs. Bluestar Technology is crossing the river by touching the stones. Then Google’s best way is to temporarily touch Bluestar. Technology crosses the river and follows Luo Sheng's ass to see the situation.

Anyway, someone is exploring the way ahead, why not?

If the situation in the river is roughly understood, there will be no worries. There is a lot of reason to follow up and invest heavily. If Luo Sheng suffers from the front, he quickly retreats.

This decision soon passed the resolution of Google's core layer.
