Chapter 290： [Big news breaking the industry]

Latest website: On the coastline, the yacht deck is busy with a lot of staff, the submersibles have been put down, and there are also several sailors in the sea water.

Luo Sheng has left the deck and discussed technical issues with several key researchers in a house inside the yacht.

"If the submarine data center works smoothly in terms of technology, operations, economy, and environmental protection, it can completely change cloud computing." Luo Sheng looked around at several senior technical research experts in the room.

A senior engineering technician said: "It's not easy. I haven't done it before, I have no experience to follow, I can only explore it by myself. It requires a lot of trial and error research, and it will inevitably result in a huge amount of research and development funds and time. Invest. "

After hearing the words, Luo Sheng nodded and smiled: "Of course, this is groundbreaking and it should be so. Cloud computing is the company's core strategy. Our [Ningyun Star-Cloud] solution currently has no competitors in the industry. Projects, no matter how much money and time it takes, are investments in the future. "

Luo Sheng formulated a three-step strategy for this project, that is, three major stages.

The first stage of work is to do a lot of related topic research and model demonstration, that is, the preliminary preparations, which belongs to the theoretical research stage;

The second phase is the experimental phase. The focus is on operating a single pod with low power usage. The deployment depth is no more than 100 meters and the distance is no more than 15 nautical miles from land. This phase is to demonstrate the operation of the light out for up to 5 years, that is, the warranty. Five years. First test the prototype underwater data center on the East China Sea coast. At this time, it is definitely powered by land-based power grid.

The third stage is the formal application stage. At this stage, all the technical precipitation of the submarine data center is quite mature and can be fully deployed.

East China has a long coastline of 18,000 kilometers. Developed areas are concentrated around the 18,000 kilometers coastline. From a global perspective, most of the population is concentrated in the three temperate regions of Europe, Asia, and North America.

Luo Sheng's goal is very simple. The first phase focuses on the mainland. The full deployment of submarine data centers will focus on the three seas. Invest in the construction of the Bohai Data Center to radiate the entire Bohai Economic Belt, invest in the construction of the East China Sea data center to radiate the Yangtze River Delta economic belt, and invest in The South China Sea Data Center radiates the southern Pearl River Delta Economic Belt.

These three economic circles can be said to be China's most prosperous economic zone, which happens to be along the coast and is the perfect place to build a super-large submarine data center.

The domestic deployment was completed before expanding overseas.

Prior to this, the blue star technology under the helm of Luo Sheng, and the azure coast, were strategically focused on overseas markets in Europe and the United States.

But times are different, and the general environment is quietly changing. This is an issue that must be considered as a multinational technology group.

The next era is an era of unprecedented change in a century. China began to move step by step toward the center stage of the world, while the West began to decline.

Whether the strategic focus is westward or eastward, Luo Sheng can certainly vote with his feet.

There is no doubt that it is placed in the motherland in a period of rapid rise, rather than the declining West. In the words of a great man, it is walking on two legs, following both rules, and the road is stable and will not fall.

So from now on, whether it is the domestic market or the overseas market, it is best to go hand in hand. If you want to focus on the other side, it must be a bit more important in the Chinese market.

There is only such a firm strategy. It does n’t matter if you can win, but at least you ca n’t be defeated. Even if the overseas market is frequently suppressed by the West in the future, or even completely lost, it will not die. Depending on the size of the domestic market, no matter how the European and American countries suppress it, it is sure refuses to die.

As long as you don't die, you can make a comeback.

The so-called stay in the green mountains is not worried about burning wood. As the helm of the French Riviera and Blue Star Technology, Luo Sheng is expanding at the same time, looking forward to the best and rest assured. At the same time, he must also consider the worst plan, and Even if the worst result occurs, it can be turned upside down, so that it can be invincible. This is a situation that a qualified helm man must consider.

After staying at sea for most of the day, Luo Sheng did not return to land until that afternoon.

The new project of the submarine data center also quickly entered the stage of research and development demonstration under his leading decision. The preliminary research and development budget was 122 million yuan. For Bluestar Technology Group, which has always been a billions of dollars, this budget seems to be very unbranded. .

In fact, this is not the case. If you know that this budget is used for the first stage of theoretical research, you would not think so.

The road has come out step by step. The first stage does not require too much budget. When the second stage begins, the budget scale will soar, and during the full deployment of the third stage, it will be tens of billions of dollars. Magnitude.

The submarine data center project has not been officially disclosed.

...

Time flies. In the closing phase of 2008, Luo Sheng pulled out of the company's tedious operation and management. 80% of the daily work time was devoted to technology research and development.

At this time, Luo Sheng was a professional technical developer with perfect knowledge, and easily switched from an entrepreneurial status to a research developer.

The time passed little by little and officially ushered in 2009, but the arrival of the new year is not very friendly to the world today.

Entering 2009, we ushered in the worst moment since the outbreak of the financial crisis, but just at this moment, just in 2009, Salesforce, another American company that also provides cloud services, announced Last year's financial report pushed the long-established cloud service to the top of the industry.

...

Baidu headquarters.

"What did you say? One billion dollars?"

At this moment, Li Duzheng, the head of Baidu, looked at the chief operating officer who came to report to him with a shocked face. The news was very surprising to him, and a little awkward.

"Yes, according to last year's financial data released by Salesforce, their cloud service revenue exceeded an astonishing $ 1 billion. And the industry's most recognized player in cloud computing services, Bluestar Technology, despite entering cloud computing services No financial information has been disclosed since the field, but the input of the other party has been increasing. "

Having said that, the COO of Baidu added: "And after I specifically investigated, I found that Google, Amazon, and Microsoft did not release financial information on cloud computing, but they continued to expand in a surprisingly consistent manner. The scale of investment in cloud computing services. "

After speaking, he glanced at President Li secretly, but for a moment, the latter muttered to himself: "How can this be ..."

The five sons were full of embarrassment. This amazing news reminded him involuntarily of his comments on cloud computing services at the forum summit three years ago.

In his speech, President Li said that he would like to pour a basin of cold water on cloud computing. However, two or three years later, he never expected that this basin of cold water would be thrown on his own face.

The same news was also delivered to Tencent's little brother's desk. He did not expect such a result. That year, he also concluded that it would take at least hundreds of years or even thousands of years to think about it.

It turned out that only three years had passed, and it was less than three years, exactly two and a half years.

Here it is reported that the revenue of cloud services of an American company is as high as 1 billion U.S. dollars, and it is not the number one player in this field. What about IT giants such as Blue Star Technology, Google, and Microsoft?

None of the financial information of the specific cloud service was disclosed, as if a tacit consensus had been reached.

Looking at it now, they are all making a lot of money and frantically grabbing market share.

If it weren't for Salesforce's financial data disclosure, the world would still be in the dark.

Data show that ~ www.novelhall.com ~ In the event of a severe economic downturn in the second half of 2008 last year, Google, Microsoft, IBM and other North American IT giants quietly increased their investment in cloud services. The average investment growth reached About 30%.

If there is no prospect in it, how can these technology giants make such large-scale additional investments?

Salesforce's annual report data revealed that the industry was shocked!

The global media raced to report that people in the global scientific and technological circles were shocked by the shocked chin.

Cloud computing was pushed to the cusp overnight, and at this time the good news media also sprinkled salt on the wounds of Baidu and Teng Xun, and the news three years ago was dug out of a crazy whip corpse.

In the latest news, Xiaoma and President Li didn't want to watch, they wanted to hit someone when they saw it.
