Chapter 180： [Old meka neck? 】

Blue Star Technology Group reached a strategic cooperation with IBM, and Luo Sheng personally came out and weaved a brand new concept term "cloud computing" and supported this field.

His current popularity and influence in the industry, whether it is domestic or Silicon Valley, is a big-name influence. Even if it is not important, as a person in the industry, if a company like Google ignores his views, it will definitely make a serious mistake. Unwise low-level errors.

In fact, none of these giants will make such low-level mistakes.

Except Yahoo.

With the end of the Pengcheng IT Forum exchange conference, Mr. Ma let a business unit within Aju to focus on cloud computing-related topics. With Aou ’s current financial strength and scale, Aju has put Yahoo in the Greater China area last year. Merging the business into the company is equivalent to a $ 1 billion financing from Yahoo.

Obviously, Aju can definitely enter the field of cloud computing, but he cannot play as big as Luo Sheng.

Teng Xun and Bai Du did not attach importance to cloud computing services, and agreed with this concept, but they are not optimistic about the blueprint that Luo Sheng originally painted can be realized now and in the foreseeable future.

Therefore, these two companies have no plans to enter the field of cloud computing, at least for now, including the next five years.

They were also happy to see what happened to Luo Sheng first.

On the international front, Jeff Bezos, who is in charge of Amazon, is more determined and is lobbying hard to get more funds in the market to invest in cloud computing services.

Google also later announced that it would invest $ 500 million to try water.

Microsoft also announced that it has entered the field of cloud computing services.

It can be said that only Luo Sheng and Jeff Bezos have made firm investments so far. Because Amazon is an e-commerce company, a large amount of e-commerce data is very useful. Jeff saw the value of one of the entire industry chain. And cloud computing services are key.

...

After entering May, the media in the industry frequently reported on cloud computing. Some people in the industry joked that Luo Sheng could become the "martyr" rhythm. Those giants who followed him were savvy. Like a fool, he explored the road ahead.

For some short-sighted remarks, Luo Sheng didn't care. They seemed to have forgotten that the pioneers in this world who could achieve great success were either fools or crazy people who followed fools.

After seeing the actions of Google and Microsoft in the field of cloud computing services, Luo Sheng's inexplicable reassurance. If these companies follow suit, Luo Sheng will still be a little stressed.

After all, whether it ’s Google or Microsoft, their physical size and financial strength are actually stronger than the current Bluestar technology, and they are North American technology companies. This is an advantage that Luo Sheng does not have. He is in Everywhere in North America is a downright outsider.

However, the matter of cloud computing is to make IBM the first party to benefit, not even the company itself has thought of it.

There is no doubt that since the beginning of the new century, Luo Sheng has set off the first wave of cloud computing services, which has given IBM a huge opportunity.

IBM has been blamed by cloud computing, and its market value has soared above $ 140 billion, which is now second only to Microsoft.

The strategic cooperation with Bluestar Technology played a key role, and after May, as the major giants have invested more or less in the field of cloud computing, this makes hardware companies such as IBM and Intel also calm.

Having tasted the sweetness of IBM, its head Samuel Palmisano is now "unswervingly" publicly supporting cloud computing, and has been preaching.

It can be said that IBM is the biggest beneficiary at present. At present, it has reached important cooperation with two major players in the field of cloud computing services, namely Bluestar Technology Group and Amazon.

...

Mid-May.

Blue Star Technology Group headquarters, Luo Sheng's office.

"General Luo, there is a little trouble in North America." Zhang Bowen came to his office, and when he received the news, he immediately came to report to Luo Sheng.

"What trouble?" Luo Sheng asked.

"The North American authorities stuck our necks on the grounds of data security, and refused to enter the market for the four data centers we are building in North America, and rejected them on the grounds of data security." Zhang Bowen explained.

Hearing this news, Luo Sheng paused for a while and returned to God without too much psychological fluctuation, which was not surprising at all.

When the old United States released Bluestar Technology into the North American market, it did not expect that it would grow at such a fast speed to this point. Many of its websites, BlueSpace, Reddit, and MicroBlog, have monopolized the social networks in North America. Already, more than a third of Internet users cannot do without these Internet social products.

Zhang Bowen couldn't help but admire: "It is still Mr. Luo's long-term vision, split and reorganize in advance, split the main business sector and split it into two, divided into a domestic version and an international version."

If Americans knew that today would be the situation, how could they not let Bluestar Technology enter the North American market so easily, it would be too difficult to push Bluestar Technology out.

Old America can't be brazen.

The BlueSpace social networking site has been followed by North American authorities when North American users broke 100 million users. At that time, they began to think of ways to kill Bluestar technology, including non-economic means.

However, Luo Sheng had already been aware of this in his early years. To this end, he split and reorganized the company, adjusted the business sector, and raised a super luxurious legal team. At the same time, the parent company's top-down supervisory board. The entire systemic layout ensures that the two do not commit crimes to give each other a chance.

Laomei is worried that Bluestar Technology has made mistakes. Even a small mistake will be amplified and used as an excuse for sanctions.

Even secretly fishing.

Of course, it is not enough to not commit any crimes, so Luo Sheng actively introduced Wall Street Capital and opened the current equity structure of Blue Star Technology Group. It will be found that Goldman Sachs, Merrill Lynch, JP Morgan, Morgan Stanley, and Citi are all among them. The first one is more scary than the other. Bluestar Technology has their vested interests. BlueStar Technology is getting bigger and bigger, and their interests are getting bigger and bigger.

Wall Street only cares about one thing ... that is profit, everything else can give way, and those who block its path will not hesitate to smash, bright, dark, begging, borrowing or stealing, everything .

As long as Bluestar Technology Group is in the North American market, it is not easy to get kicked out of this market as long as it does not tell the truth and makes full use of local rules.

Zhang Bowen also said: "It is very funny to say another thing. The news was disclosed yesterday. What do you guess, Luo? The company's stock has risen 2%, can you believe it?"

After hearing this, Luo Sheng also hesitated for a while, and couldn't help but laugh when he reacted, saying: "It seems that the market and investors are still stubborn and do not like our move in the field of cloud computing."

How else could the company's stock abnormally increase by 2% because of this news?

Because North American authorities do n’t approve it, you ca n’t get four large data centers on your side, which is equivalent to saving one-third of the cost of investing in cloud computing. Of course, the stock will rise.

Zhang Bowen added: "When it comes to stocks, IBM's stock fell sharply by 3.57%, which directly evaporated $ 5 billion."

Luo Sheng calmly said: "There is no need to worry about this matter. I estimate that IBM is more anxious than us. They are now the first beneficiaries. IBM will never pay us a liquidated damage because of this matter. .com ~ and give up the cloud computing business to Intel or Dell, whose interests are at heart. "

The Blue Star Technology signed a ten-year strategic cooperation agreement with IBM, which is a huge profit for IBM. The strategic contract is worth $ 40 billion, and IBM has no reason to refuse.

Bluestar's breach of contract would have to pay $ 3 billion in breach of contract costs, while IBM defaulted on Bluestar's $ 1 billion. Although it was a third less, it was an astronomical figure.

For IBM, liquidated damages are not the key. The key is a strategic contract worth a total of $ 40 billion.

The entanglement is even more complicated. The shareholding structure of IBM has been confirmed that its largest shareholder is the stock **** Buffett. There are also other Wall Street investment banks, including Goldman Sachs and Morgan, which have intricate interests in them.
