Whether Michael Eisner and Michael Ovitz intend to enter Silicon Valley, or whether the "Communication Weathering Act" was drafted a year earlier in history, is not accidental.

At the present stage, the United States far exceeds the Internet penetration rate of more than half of other countries in the world. It is said that this country has entered the information age without any moisture content.

In the new era, the focus of attention of both the general public and the government has changed.

Since several giants jointly carried out the "Information Age" marketing plan at the end of last year, not only the opening year of January, February 1995, some of the most eye-catching news in the US media, many are still related to new technologies.

Simon took the time to meet with Eisner and Owitz on the following weekend, and directly finalized the Igreat venture capital department to get a 20% stake in the workplace social networking site with $5 million in start-up funds.

Also this weekend, Microsoft announced that it will officially release the Windows 95 operating system on March 10, a month later. This time is five months earlier than in history. In fact, the Windows 95 test system is in Last year, it has spread around the world in various ways.

Microsoft in the last year's Windows 3.2 system has awakened Simon's point to join the groundbreaking'Start' menu in advance, and has achieved very positive user feedback.

However, the latest Windows 95 system not only makes the operating system simpler and easier to use, but also carries out comprehensive upgrades in network, external connection, image support, etc. The most important thing is that Windows 95 also introduced a more powerful 32-bit system. This has allowed Microsoft to further throw away its biggest competitor, Apple, and have since ridden the dust.

Because the market is generally optimistic about Microsoft's Windows 95 system, on the first trading day after the news was released, on February 13, Microsoft's stock price rose 1.9% that day, and the closing market value reached $1281 billion.

By comparison, Apple’s market value has fallen from a peak of more than US$7 billion a few years ago to US$2.8 billion at the close on February 13th, a decline of more than 60%.

Because Simon won Pixar in advance, this animation studio's series of successful auras has nothing to do with Steve Jobs. This aura is missing. This time, when Apple is declining, no one remembers the invitation. Jobs, who has also failed in business for several years, returned to Apple to host the overall picture.

Simon has already arranged for many things, and this time he does not intend to intervene in this matter.

Simon is not wary of Microsoft's strong rise.

The door classmates' resistance to the Westeros system in recent years is very obvious. With the release of Windows 95, the other party still did not allow IE to be the preset browser for this operating system. Igreat also did not hope at Microsoft. There is no relief in obtaining browser patent authorization.

Not only that, because Microsoft directly imitated the model of Igret's online software store and added its own desktop software store directly to the new system, the two parties will inevitably have a lawsuit to fight.

Because of the openness of the Windows system, of course, compared with the opening of the Apple operating system in memory, Simon has not regarded the software store business as the core of Igritt.Because with the gradual improvement of the network environment, users can obtain the corresponding software directly from the official homepage in the future. Similarly, some software developers must inevitably bypass the software malls such as Igrid that need to be sold directly to users because of interests. software.

The door students should not see this.

Suddenly taking a software mall to disrupt the situation, it is probably too much for Microsoft, which gradually dominates the PC operating system field, and is excluded from the core Internet industry.

Because of the increasing friction between the two parties, Igrid’s Linux system team has also been quietly developing the PC version of this free operating system.

Next, Simon has only one obstacle to solve, the patent issue.

With the employees who entered the market earlier, Microsoft has applied for a large number of software patents on the operating system, forming a solid patent barrier, which is actually the reason why other operating systems cannot rise.

However, Microsoft is no earlier than Apple.

Everyone knows this matter.

Therefore, as long as Apple wins, Simon can obtain many operating system patents sufficient to compete with Microsoft, and many of them are still quite core patents. At that time, whether in the field of desktop operating systems or future mobile operating systems, Simon no longer needs to worry about Microsoft's patent barriers.

The upcoming news of Windows 95 has greatly stimulated Microsoft's stock price. On the side of Eaglet, the relevant information is even heavier.

As the IPO advances, just like last year’s Daenerys Entertainment before it went public, Igerett will also honor its share awards for a senior executive, as well as rewards or subscription plans for all employees.

Compared with last year's Daenerys Entertainment, the valuation of Eaglet Company has been basically determined to reach the level of 100 billion US dollars with the release of various news.

Others don’t say, just publicly expose the four giants of Igret’s Tim Berners Lee, Jeff Bezos, Carol Bartz and Alice Ferguson. According to the valuation of 100 billion US dollars, it has reached 17 billion US dollars.

Among them, if Tim Berners Lee’s equity rewards are fully realized, the theoretical value of the stock just before listing will reach 5 billion US dollars, which is enough to directly squeeze into the top ten of the Forbes 400 rich list.

You know, last year’s Forbes 400 list of American riches, although Simon’s personal wealth was awesome, in fact, only 6 people in the entire list have more than 5 billion US dollars. After 6 people, individuals Wealth has fallen below 5 billion U.S. dollars, tied for five of the Walton family who occupy 9th to 13th in the list, and the personal wealth figure is only 4.3 billion U.S. dollars.

Many media are now speculating whether Simon will fully honor the promise of equity awards for several executives. Even if Westero's personal wealth has broken through the sky, the amount of this award is still too large.Moreover, according to the contracts of several executives, the cashing period has not yet arrived, and the contract stipulates that it will be cashed next year.

If Simon does not want to give these executives too much, he actually has a lot of room for operation.

Of course, if this is really done, the turmoil of Eaglet will be inevitable, and may even lead to the collective resignation of several core executives, and then start a lawsuit war, so that this high-speed technology train suddenly loses control.

What's more, even if it is the Big Four, the other management and employees who have made many contributions to the development of Igret in recent years cannot be too stingy.

The share of the Big Four has reached 17%, Goldman Sachs and Morgan hold 10%, and the rumored IPO will sell shares up to 20%. In this way, Simon’s equity is only 53%. If too many employees are given Even though it is possible to maintain absolute control of Igret through a dual shareholding structure, after listing, Simon's shareholding in Igret must fall below 50%.

The loss of the actual absolute shareholding in the equity share will inevitably bring variables to the Westeros system's absolute control of Igrete.

Dumei Point Estate, Malibu.

The time is February 13.

After lunch, several hosts in the shell villa were packing up their luggage.

Tomorrow is Valentine's Day.

This time Simon plans to take two Jenny together to spend time in Miami, Florida. Of course, there is no room for the little guys' private moments, so Veronica came to help bring the children.

After a certain identity was revealed last year, Veronica appeared less and less at Dumei Point Estate.

Simon probably knew that this should be Janet's deliberate arrangement.

The husband and wife were very tacit about this matter and did not discuss it.

The residence on the other side of Miami was sent to organize it yesterday. There are everything there. The three people travel, but there is not much luggage to take.

At 1:30 in the afternoon, Veronica held Little Nick in one hand, Melbourne in one hand, and a small hand held by the Indian girl next to it, but it seemed that some parents were about to leave Seattle, who was absent-minded, and bid farewell to the three.

Everyone said goodbye, and the female assistant who had not separated from the little guy after giving birth the child the previous year gave a careful account, and then got on the car with Simon and Janet.

This Valentine's Day vacation, if nothing special happens temporarily, will continue until next Monday, in addition to Miami, but also plans to go to the Bahamas and other places to play a lap.

The entourage was also magnificent.

In addition to the three Simon couples, there were 50 bright bodyguards and secret agents who went together, and there were more than 20 waitresses and waitresses.

Simone didn't feel much trouble.

Even if there have been many deterrents in the past year, because Simon is too dazzling, the hostility of the world to him and the corresponding actions have never been cut off.This year's opening year is less than a month and a half, and there have been three intrusions at Dumei Point Estate for various reasons, averaging once every two weeks.

Several fierce actions last year were mainly to disclose some of their positions to the outside world. For these current offenders, Simon cannot always take excessive measures, so he can only deal with them in a low-key manner, and some of them are directly handed over to the FBI.

Out of some instinctive caution, Simon had hoped that the three would take at least two private jets. Both Jenny expressed their opposition, so they boarded the Boeing 767 together.

Boeing 767 front cabin.

After the plane lifted off smoothly, in the cozy small living room on the lower level of the front cabin, after the accompanying Zoe and Isabel brought coffee and left, Janet immediately took out a video cassette and stuffed it into the projector. Suddenly appeared on the wall-mounted TV. Elkhina’s ballet solo dance scene is also accompanied by the song "The Last Day of Bach".

Grabbing the remote control and squeezing it together on the reclining sofa by the hanging window, Janet pointed to the TV screen and began to complain to Jennifer on the other side: "Look, see, there is this fairy because of this dance Crazy, maybe Simon will not hesitate to let her die, Jenny, you also have a "Blizzard", me, I have nothing."

Speaking of having grabbed the big hand of the man next to him, he opened his mouth discontentedly and bit it violently.

Simon was looking at the plan of Igreat’s shareholding plan that James Rybold turned over. His right hand was bitten by Janet La. He had to put the information aside and let the woman grind her teeth for a while, laughing: "You When this dance song is for you."

Janet didn't let go, and there was a whining word in her mouth: "It's perfunctory, I don't want it."

The female assistant on the other side just smiled and watched the excitement, but actually wanted to bite, but she always kept the lady a little more than Janet and waited for a moment before making a round: "Then let Simon also make a song for you. Well, it’s not difficult for him."

Simon shook his right hand, and finally got rid of Janet's row of small teeth, and said: "Don't you have it, "Flying Bee", everyone knows."

Janet said: "That's not original."

Simon smiled half-truth and said: "In fact, these are not original, the ghosts around me told me."

The female assistant listened to Simon's words, and her eyes flashed lightly.

However, Janet didn't mind, and wrapped her arms around Simon, saying: "Anyway, those ghosts are useless for these, you are giving me a song, it must be nice."

Simon nodded: "Okay, I think about it, I'll wait until Miami."

Janet'Get Into the Ruler': "I also want you to shoot the MV for me personally."

Simon readily agreed: "No problem, the next few days should be enough."

Seeing Simon promised, Janet was satisfied, and it seemed that he just remembered the man's words: "Dear, are there ghosts on our plane?"

Simon pretended to look around for a moment, and pointed to a corner: "Now, there is one, smiling at you."

"Yeah..." Janet pretended to be surprised and posted a note on Simon's body, and quickly asked, "Male and female?"

"Uh, women."

"is it beautiful?"

"general."

"That's fine, wait for us to love and love her in front of her, and jealously die her."

"..."

"Ha ha."

On the other side, Jennifer watched the two laughing, and there was some envy in the eyes, suddenly thinking of a Chinese verse that the man said.

Bowl.

Over the years, many things have changed, and even the two people around them are inevitable, but the kind of intimacy between them is the same.

This feeling is actually a little weird.

Men have more and more women outside, but every time they appear beside them, she can feel his undifferentiated feelings towards them, maybe this is the advantage of men, can fall in love with many sincerely and sincerely Women, and they, can only love him one.

Thinking in my heart, I couldn't help but smile.

I haven't changed myself.

After all these years, he is still a big girl in his bed.

Since he still loves them, Janet's feelings for him never cool down, she feels that she can do it naturally.

In her heart, she is a very strong girl.

Although, it was destined to lose to another Jenny.

You can't lose any more.

So he posted on the man next to him and listened quietly to the chats of the two, which was enough.Seemingly feeling her emotions, a large hand stretched out around her shoulders, and she put her face on his shoulders. When Janet expressed dissatisfaction, she rarely demonstrated to her.

Janet whispered her little white teeth to rush past, and suddenly there was a fierce tremor in the cabin.

With a small scream, Janet shrank away from the man like a cat, but he was not afraid in his eyes, but instead had some weird little excitement: "Simon, are we going to die?"

Simon left and right hugged the two women and smiled: "It's just the air."

A sound from the cockpit captain came from the speaker.

Sure enough, it was airflow, reminding everyone in the cabin to sit firmly and carefully bump.

The tremor lasted for more than a minute.

Being held by a man, Jennifer was also a little scared, but when she noticed Janet's gaze on the other side, somehow, the female assistant suddenly looked a little different.

I don’t know if it’s a pity or a pity, and the shaking finally stopped.

The three of them haven't spoken for a long time afterwards, and they seem to be reminiscing about the kind of perilous line just now.

Although the three-person proposal was proposed beforehand, Simon really encountered something and Simon found that he didn't actually have much fear.The two worlds are human beings, which was the gift of God's accident. After all these years, there is no regret.Moreover, many things have been arranged in advance, even without worries.

Of course, Simon did not have the self-destructive tendency deep in Janet's bone marrow. After arriving in Miami, considering this experience, he quickly made another decision to purchase another two Boeing 767s.

For various reasons, it is not timely to purchase a large Boeing 747 as originally planned, but it is no problem to buy two more 767s.Simon's consideration is also very simple. In the future, he and two Jenny can be on the same plane, but it cannot be the same for the whole family.
