Global monopoly of technology

Chapter 603 [As long as there is light, you can surf the Internet (4K chapter)]

Before the reporter rushed to the scene, Luo Sheng had already left the airport with some people, and Hyland Haas went with him. The key employees he brought were also picked up by seven buses, and the landing place had already been settled in advance. Down.

Hyland Haas’s company has been relocated as a whole and received high treatment, the most representative of which is to give the Galaxy City headquarters an independent building for its office, which is regarded as the best-paid “non-biological” family. Of the subsidiary.

Subsidiaries operate independently and have independent accounting, and Hyland Haas has a very high degree of autonomy, basically the company is in charge.

The Côte d’Azur promises not to interfere with his operations and give the founder sufficient rights. The only requirement of the parent company is that the parent company must have the right to know before the subsidiary cooperates with companies in the Côte d’Azur and must notify in advance. The parent company, and the parent company has a veto right.

Even if it is a competition restriction, Hyland Haas can accept it, and the Côte d’Azur has this right. The parent company’s business is extremely large, and the border will continue to expand in the future. This veto power will also play a role. getting bigger.

In addition, the Côte d’Azur already holds 68% of this subsidiary, and the parent company is also the biggest beneficiary. After all, the company without the Côte d’Azur Hyland Haas may have died.

...

The next morning, the Science and Technology Complex.

Just after Luo Sheng got up and finished breakfast, Hyland Haas came to visit.

In the large living room, Luo Sheng invited Hyland Haas to take a seat on the lounge sofa, and smiled: "I'm afraid the jet lag hasn't completely reversed so early. You can rest for a while."

Hyland Haas said: "No, I'm fine, in fact, Mr. Luo, I can't wait."

While talking, he took out a USB-like hardware with a USB interface from his pocket, then put it on the table and pushed it in front of Luo Sheng.

"This is the result of your research?"

Luo Sheng picked it up to play and watched, and then curiously looked at the other party.

Hyland Haas nodded repeatedly, staring at the small object in his hand and said: "This is PureLiFi's first product, a USB transceiver. I named it LiFi-X."

PureLiFi, this is the name of the company founded by Hyland Haas, is a technology company that focuses on the research and development of LiFi technology. This is an emerging wireless transmission technology that can compete with WiFi, at least in the field of wireless network transmission in the future Occupy a pivotal position.

And this so-called LiFi-X is a lighting network device, in simple terms, you can use lights to realize the Internet, and you can surf the Internet where there is light.

Luo Sheng looked at the small object in his hand and said, "What is its fastest data transmission rate?"

Hyland Haas replied: "The highest data transfer rate can reach 50MBs."

Hearing this, Luo Sheng pondered and said: "Is it only 50MBs...Although this is far less than the multi-gigabit WiFi wireless router, 50MBs has initially met the conditions for commercialization. OK, your first A customer is right in front of Professor Haas. First, I will assemble a set of LiFi-X for this building so that I can do smarter office better."

After speaking, Luo Sheng couldn't help but smile, and put down the LiFi-X in his hand.

Hyland Haas smiled and said, "Although you are the largest shareholder of PureLiFi, I can only give you a 5% discount, no less."

Luo Sheng laughed blankly, the German humor was really a bit awkward.

"Tomorrow I will hold a press conference in person to officially show your product and another product of the Riviera Labs to the world. If your progress goes smoothly, I don’t mind making the flagship Azure-5 compatible with your LiFi. Technology, and the parent company will devote resources to large-scale promotion."

Hearing Luo Sheng’s promise, Hyland Haas's spirits were lifted. Although it meant further miniaturization of LiFi technology, Luo Sheng’s promise was an unimaginable market, which is today’s smartphones. The most influential existence in the brand.

Hyland Haas said excitedly: "I can't wait."

Luo Sheng smiled and said, "For the sake of my advertising, is a 5% discount too sincere? How about a 50% discount?"

Hyland: "No, free service."

Luo Sheng: "Haha, a deal."

...

In the afternoon, the company's official website announced that a temporary press conference will be held tomorrow to publicly announce some of the latest technological research results of the Côte d'Azur.

The outside world was a bit caught off guard when this news came out, and it was difficult to think about it at this point. The major media were speculating on whether the Côte d'Azur was going to play a big move that day.

As the saying goes, there must be demons if something goes wrong.

Not to mention, not only the media circles but also the strong onlookers who eat melon netizens, "friends" in the field of integrated circuits are all paying attention to this for the first time.

People in the media industry are very helpless. The Côte d’Azur always does not play cards according to the routine, and it’s nothing to do the press conference. Why did you play a surprise attack? Most of the media were not prepared, and many reporters went to the Côte d’Azur headquarters in the first place. Especially some international media overseas.

...

The next day, more than 1,000 people from the media industry arrived non-stop at the Côte d’Azur headquarters. There were no tickets for this temporary conference, and it was not a major flagship product conference for the mass consumer market.

At around 10:45 in the morning, all the media people attending the conference have arrived in the conference hall. It is still the conference hall of the Azure flagship machine. But today 80% of the positions are vacant. The media reporters participating in the conference are also vacant. Sit casually.

"OK, let's get started."

Luo Sheng walked to the brief and concise opening on the stage of the press conference. The pictures here were synchronized to the outside world through live broadcast, and a large number of netizens and industry insiders were silently watching.

Especially the "international friendly businessmen" want to see what medicine Luo Sheng is selling in the gourd, and whether there will be another big news.

Facing the audience, Luo Sheng said, "Have you ever thought of a brand-new application scenario, using lights to realize the Internet, or where there is light, you can go online."

What the hell?

Use lights to surf the Internet?Can you go online where there is light?What is the principle?What is this operation?

The melon-eating netizens who watched the live broadcast were suddenly full of black question marks.

Luo Sheng went on to say: “Before introducing our latest technological achievement, I have to talk about the company that created it. In fact, this technology was not originally invented by the Côte d’Azur. Of course, we also contributed our strength, but we have to overcome this technology. The main force of the company was invented by Professor Hyland Haas, the former head of the Department of Mobile Communications at the School of Communication at the University of Edinburgh in the UK, and the German physicist Professor Hyland Haas, who established a company specializing in LiFi technology-PureLiFi in 2012."

The media off the court instantly glared their eyes. They noticed the keyword "LiFi" from Luo Sheng's words.

LiFi?

WiFi?

The taste of rhythm and fierce food has been smelled before the start. Even if the memory of the outsiders is short, they have not forgotten that the WiFi Alliance kicked Luo Sheng ruthlessly. This happened only three days ago. As a result, Luo Sheng now presses a LiFi backhand.

Not only is it considered that the WiFi Alliance will fall into trouble, but is also ready, waiting for this moment to come?

This is too exaggerated, right?

In the live broadcast barrage of the press conference, the barrage of "middle door to sniper" has already begun to swipe.

The media reporters at the scene were also excited.

At this moment, the giant screen on the stage is a photo of Hyland Haas, and Luo Sheng eloquently said: "Our relationship with Professor Haas was purely accidental. In March 2012, Professor Haas’ company sought financing. No one was interested and had to seek overseas financing. The Côte d’Azur invested in PureLiFi..."

Right now is the scene of large-scale commercial exchanges. Luo Sheng made various high evaluations of Hyland Haas, but people are even more concerned about the fact that during this period, he personally delivered a baby to the VC in Diss Europe. The mouth of the Riviera is also showing off and mocking the short-sightedness of Europeans.

When Luo Sheng said that, Europeans and Americans seemed to realize what they had missed, and the major international friends were surprised. While watching the press conference, they immediately called people to check PureLiFi. They must see this company within five minutes. Full details of the company.

At the same time, Luo Sheng paced back and forth on the stage and officially entered today's topic.

"LiFi, the full name is'LightFidelity', that is,'visible light wireless communication technology', also known as'optical fidelity technology'. This is a brand new wireless transmission technology that uses the physical characteristics of visible light to realize data transmission. Or it’s called a lighting network, and the Wi-Fi that we’re now well-known uses radio waves to transmit data. This is the main difference between LiFi and WiFi.

"What is visible light pop? For example, you can use the light from a bulb to connect to the Internet."

The netizens who watched the live melon meal were all stunned. Is there such a black technology?

Luo Sheng continued:

"Specifically to explain in terms of technical principles, in fact, LiFi uses a built-in modem in the LED light to emit strobes that are not noticeable by human eyes in a specific pattern, while the receiving device on the other end will use the opposite The method uses a modem to demodulate the information expressed by the stroboscopic signal, and uses infrared to realize the return of information, so as to achieve two-way data communication similar to WiFi."

"Compared to the only 2.4GHz and 5GHz frequency bands currently available for WiFi, the visible spectrum bandwidth available for LiFi is nearly 10,000 times more than that. In addition, in power plants, mines, etc., there is strong electromagnetic interference and The advantages of LiFi can be fully reflected in the areas where strong lighting is also required."

A reporter off the court suddenly exclaimed in shock:

"This... he... my goodness he... So he planned to bypass the existing WiFi technology directly, give up completely, and invent a brand new technology to replace it?"

"Absolutely. The prospect of this new wireless transmission technology seems to be more potential than WiFi. The spectrum bandwidth is more than 10,000 times its bandwidth. More importantly, it means that the Côte d’Azur will be the standard formulation of this new technology. Well, if people from the WiFi Alliance are watching the press conference, they are probably stupid now."

"Europeans are probably stupid, especially European venture capital institutions. PureLiFi gave it to Luo Sheng. Now most of them are regretful."

"It's no wonder that Luo Sheng will personally come to the terminal to receive him the day before yesterday. Such high specifications show how important PureLiFi's technology is. Luo Sheng probably doesn't know how good it is now."

"How many unannounced black technologies are still hiding in the Blue Coast?"

At this moment, the outside world was greatly shaken.

Luo Sheng's expressions and reactions of people in the media off the court were in full view. He still smiled and was very satisfied with this, but it did not affect his progress in the press conference.

I saw him continue to introduce: "Some people will say that you can surf the Internet only when you turn on the lights? Then I have to keep the lights on when I surf the Internet?"

Immediately asked and answered: "Of course not, you can still turn off the lights. Visible light does not mean visible to the naked eye, and you turn off the power supply, just don't turn off the built-in transmitter."

At this time, under the focus of the audience, a staff member ran towards the stage midfield in small steps. He brought a laptop and handed it to Luo Sheng.

"This PC has undergone some changes, and a specific transceiver component has been installed inside." Luo Sheng said, and at the same time took out a small hardware like a USB flash drive from his pocket and held it up to show everyone. The large screen behind also gave a close-up shot.

"This is PureLiFi's first masterpiece-LiFi-X, a USB-type transceiver, which can be connected to any mobile device equipped with a supporting transceiver module through LED lights to perform point-to-point high-speed data transmission. PureLiFi The company’s current lighting network technology can reach a data transfer rate of up to 50MBs."

"Although this is still not comparable to a WiFi wireless router, because it is still a semi-finished product, it is obviously ready for commercialization. LiFi-X is not a finished product. There is still a lot of room for improvement. We do not plan to make it so soon. To launch a product, its transmission rate must be at least 50 times higher. It will not be too long to be marketed, but we can now try new technical performance on the spot."

After speaking, Luo Sheng stopped talking, and conducted a practical demonstration on the spot. First, he connected LiFi-X through a USB port on the laptop. It was very convenient. The audience off-site gathered close-up shots on the big screen.

As Luo Sheng's laptop successfully connected to the Internet and surfed the Internet smoothly, this picture impacted every witness.

There was an unbelievable exclamation from the audience.

You can really go online!!!

At this time, Luo Sheng suddenly said while operating: "What if the next generation of Azure phones support LiFi technology?"

The scene was suddenly silent.

The domestic melon eaters who are watching the live broadcast, especially the fans, are getting goose bumps with excitement.

Doesn't this mean that the next generation of Azure mobile phones can access the Internet where there is light?

The people in the WiFi Alliance are indeed watching the live information of the press conference, but they feel they are watching horror stories. They never dreamed that "expelling" Luo Sheng would cause such a bad thing.

People are really stupid.
