Global monopoly of technology

"Afarid browser has received the supreme favor of Goddess of Luck, because behind it is Luo Sheng, and Luo Sheng owns Bluestar Technology and the Blue Coast, while Bluestar Technology owns StarCloud, and the Blue Coast has AOS and WOS operating systems."

Having said this, Pichai once again motioned everyone to look at the PPT.

"From 2009 to the beginning of 2015, these five years have witnessed the rapid growth of AOS and WOS and the dominance of mobile operating systems. It is also a time when Afarid browser has taken advantage of the momentum to grow all the way, and it has not accelerated to this day. To a downward trend."

Pichai once again turned his gaze back to look at everyone: "At present, the entire desktop browser field has formed a pattern of'four-party hegemony' or'one super three strong'. Of course, whether it is our Chrome or Microsoft's IE or Firefox, we are making progress. In many ways, I am learning from competitors, especially from Afarid, but Afarid is like the superhero Quicksilver in Marvel..."

After speaking, Pichai shook his head helplessly.

The meeting room was quiet for a moment, and Larry Page immediately resumed the rhythm of the discussion and asked: "From the Pichai report, the market share of Afarid and Chrome browsers has steadily increased on the original basis, while IE and Firefox continues to decline steadily."

Pichai nodded and further added: "In the global browser market, it is difficult to clarify in detail how and to what extent the mobile Internet wave has affected the desktop browser market in the past five years. We are studying this subject, but there is no doubt that Afarid is the biggest beneficiary, followed by Chrome."

Eric Schmidt said sharply: "Simply put, Afarid's success is to continue to attract more users with a unified experience across multiple terminals such as desktops, tablets and smartphones."

Although Schmidt emptied the browser field, one of the three Internet traffic portals, during his tenure at Google, he also lost the competition with Bluestar Technology in the streaming media online video field, and the Android project was also captured by the Blue Coast. Press one head.

But these failures cannot deny Schmidt’s contribution to Google. This name has participated in creating a glorious era belonging to Google. This name has long been part of Google’s technology legend. When people look back on the brief history of Google’s development, Eric Schmidt is destined to be a character who cannot be bypassed.

Sundar Pichai nodded and said: "Yes, that's it. Microsoft missed opportunities in the mobile Internet wave, resulting in IE isolation and helplessness, and was marginalized by the release of Windows 10 and Edge two years ago. IE has basically been abandoned and left it to fend for itself, and our Chrome browser barely has its current situation because of Android."

"Everyone, when the battle for desktop browsers has not settled, Chrome still has the power to fight, but if the Afarid browser is allowed to develop for another two years, the follow-up road will be flat and its market share will inevitably reach 70 %, no one will be able to shake its position by that time, and it is unlikely that anyone will challenge its dominance in the desktop browser field. It is hard to stop now, but there may be a chance.

Nowadays, Afarid browser has accounted for more than half of the country, and Microsoft's IE is already a dead end. From the Edge browser built based on the open source kernel project of Bluestar Technology, it can be seen that Microsoft has basically given up on the field of desktop browsers. The contending of science and technology is tantamount to indirectly acknowledging the status of Bluestar Technology's browser boss.

No one wants to see Afarid dominate the world, let alone Bluestar Technology Group as the only option for consumers on the web.

Sergey Brin glanced around at the crowd, spread one hand, and said, "OK, everything that should be sorted out is sorted out, So, what should I do?"

Pichai simply said: "You can't just allocate a sum of money to K Street through normal business competition."

The so-called "K" Street, originally called "K-St", ST stands for Street, which means street.

K Street is located in the District of Columbia, Washington, with Georgetown to the north and Capitol Hill to the east. It is a lobbying street where a large number of think tanks, analysis agencies, lobbying groups, public relations companies, international headquarters, the World Bank, IMF, etc. are also located here. , Can be described as a street that represents the changing global situation.

Of course, Page and others at the meeting understood Pichai's proposal, and they quickly expressed their views on it, and everyone agreed without hesitation. The proposal to allocate 18 million US dollars was directly approved by the board of directors.

...

Three days later.

This morning, Luo Shengzheng, holding a cup of morning tea, was alone in his private office, staring at the 4K high-definition large screen on the wall. At this time, a temporary video conference was underway. Several core layers including Zhang Bowen from Bluestar Technology Group Executives participated in this video conference.

The reason is that a tech tycoon from Silicon Valley posted the latest dynamic information on MicroBlog last night, and it spread quickly in the industry, and even many mainstream media in Europe and America are citing reports.

The person who posted the news is Larry Page, one of the founders of Google. If it is just a news, it will spread in the technology circle at most.

But this post succeeded in getting the attention of the newly launched "Understanding King" and forwarding it and leaving a message.

That's different.

This is the reason why the out-of-circle has caused mainstream media reports, and the core executives of Blue Coast and Bluestar Technology hold temporary video conferences early in the morning.

Luo Sheng looked at Wang’s post message on the screen with a disgusting expression on his face: "Ha... I originally thought that this year would be able to pass the first quarter in peace and quiet, but it ended in January. I started to toss before it was over. It seems that I was still too optimistic. I was stared at by the king of understanding. Some of it was noisy now."

Zhang Bowen suspiciously said: "Understand the king? What is this?"

Others in the meeting also had question marks on their faces. Luo Sheng had no choice but to casually skip this topic and return to the topic of today's meeting.

The original dynamic text posted by Larry Page on his MicroBlog is:

[Afarid browser has quietly changed the core part of the way the Web works. It is almost infinitely close to the real monopoly of the above technology. It gives Bluestar Technology the ability to influence the working methods of all web browsing, which is far beyond the reach of most people. In terms of consciousness, Afarid is a monopolistic business under Bluestar Technology that should be split.But no matter what, we will fight for a truly open Web through Chrome and be prepared to sacrifice.

However, Wang Wang reposted and left a message two hours after Larry Page posted this news:

[No one knows the harm of Bluestar Technology’s monopoly on Magnesium more than I do. He has too many monopolized areas, from mobile phones to PCs, video sharing, music, navigation, dining and entertainment guides and ratings, e-book publishing, Movie and TV content on-demand stations, Internet finance, online books...]

Understanding Wang reposted and commented on a wave of seemingly uneasy, so he posted angrily:

[Oh, by the way, they also have data analysis and consulting services for the company. He is really all-encompassing.When his big net gets bigger and bigger, so big that your life depends on it but you still don’t realize it, it means it has taken over your life. This is a mess left by the last term. No one is better than me. Know how bad this is.

After a while, Zhang Bowen in the video conference said with a joking smile: "It seems that Google should be really anxious this time, and he did not hesitate to use Qishangquan."

A dynamic message posted by a Silicon Valley technology tycoon on MicroBlog asked Luo Sheng to hold a meeting to discuss it because the situation behind this incident was too abnormal.

The relationship between Silicon Valley bigwigs and Daowang is not very good. This is no secret. Almost no one supports Daowang.

However, Page, as one of the most famous technology giants in Silicon Valley, and the Alphabet company behind it, which is one of Silicon Valley's top multinational technology giants, now gives people a sense of harmony and intriguing.

Zhang Bowen said that Google’s one move and seven injuries are not unreasonable. There are two good reasons:

First, if Google is arguing with Wang Mei, it will inevitably make other Silicon Valley bigwigs upset and be regarded as traitors.

Second, Page took the initiative to propose a monopolistic spin-off of the technology giants. If Bluestar Technology North America is split as a result, the Silicon Valley technology giants will not be able to run, including Amazon, Microsoft, and even Google itself. Being split, this is undoubtedly even more hateful to Silicon Valley bigwigs.

But from the standpoint of Alphabet, it is another matter. In a word: the enemy will enter our high ground to dismantle the crystal, and labor and management cannot manage that much.
