Chapter 650: [Ranking again]

"The Afarid browser got the supreme favor of the goddess of luck, because behind it is Luo Sheng, and Luo Sheng owns Blue Star Technology and the Cote d'Azur, and Blue Star Technology has StarCloud, and the Cote d'Azur has AOS and WOS operating systems."

Speaking of this, Pichai once again motioned everyone to look at the PPT.

"From 2009 to the beginning of 2015, these five years were when AOS and WOS grew rapidly and dominated the mobile operating system. It was also when the Afarid browser took advantage of the growth and drove all the way. It is still not accelerating to this day. To the deceleration trend."

Pichai once again withdrew his eyes and looked at everyone: "At present, the entire desktop browser field has formed a "quartet hegemony" or "one super three" pattern. Of course, whether it is our Chre or Microsoft's IE or Firefox are improving, Learning from competitors in many ways, especially from Afarid, but Afarid is like Superhero Quick Silver in Marvel..."

After talking, Pichai shook his head helplessly.

The meeting room was quiet for a moment, Larry Page immediately followed the rhythm of the discussion and asked: "From the report of Pichai, the market share of Afarid and Chre 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 specifically explain how and to what extent the mobile Internet wave has affected the desktop browser market in the past five years. Change, we are studying the subject, but there is no doubt that Afarid is the biggest beneficiary, followed by Chre."

Eric Schmidt said immediately: "In a nutshell, Afarid's success is to continuously attract more users with a unified experience that spans multiple terminals such as desktops, tablets, and smartphones."

Although Schmidt stepped into the browser field, one of the three major traffic portals in the Internet field during Google's leadership, it also defeated Bluestar Technology in the competition of streaming online video, and the Android project was also on the Cote d'Azur. Hold your head.

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

Sandal Pichai nodded again and again: "Yes, that's it. And because Microsoft missed opportunities in the mobile Internet wave, IE was helpless and was marginalized two years ago when Windows 10 and the Edge browser were released. , IE has basically been abandoned, and it will die by itself, and our Chre browser barely has today's situation because of the Android."

"Everyone, before the battle for desktop browsers is settled, Chre still has the power to fight, but if 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 %, by that time no one will be able to shake its status, and it is unlikely that the owner will challenge its dominance in the desktop browser field. Although it is difficult to block it now, there may be a chance."

Nowadays, the Afarid browser has accounted for more than half of the country, and Microsoft's IE is already in the dark. From the Edge browser built on the basis of the open source kernel project of Bluestar Technology, it can be seen that Microsoft basically gave up with Bluestar in the field of desktop browsers. The counterbalance of technology is equivalent to indirectly acknowledging the position of Bluestar Technology's browser leader.

No one wants to see Afarid dominate the rivers and lakes, let alone Blue Star Technology Group as the only option for consumers on the web.

Sergey Brin looked around the crowd and said, "OK, everything that should be sorted out, So, what should I do?"

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

The so-called "K" street, whose original name is "K-St", ST is Street, which means street.

K Street is located in the District of Columbia, District of Columbia, George Town in the north, and Capitol Hill in the east. It is a street for lobbying. A large number of think tank analysis institutions, lobbying groups, public relations companies, international headquarters, World Bank, IMF, etc. are also here. , Can be described as a street representing global changes.

Pichai’s proposal, of course, was understood by Page and others who attended the meeting, and he quickly expressed his position on it, and everyone agreed without much hesitation. The decision to allocate $18 million was approved directly on the board of directors.

...

After three days.

This morning, Luo Sheng, who is holding a cup of morning tea, is alone in his private office, staring at the 4K high-definition large screen on the wall. At this time, a temporary video conference is in progress, and several core layers such as Zhang Bowen of the Bluestar Technology Group Executives participated in this video conference.

The cause was a latest dynamic message posted on MicroBlog by a technology giant from Silicon Valley last night, and quickly spread in the industry. Even 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 you just send a news, at most it will spread in the technology circle.

However, this dynamic was successful, so that the just-launched "King Wang" followed and forwarded and left a message.

That's different.

This is the reason why going out of the circle has caused mainstream media reports, and the executives of several core layers of the Côte d'Azur and Blue Star Technology held a temporary video conference early in the morning.

Luo Sheng looked at the message on the screen that understood Wang's post, and looked at it with disgust: "Horror... I originally thought that this year, I would say it would be safe and stable after the first quarter. I started tossing before the end. It seems that I am still too optimistic.

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

The other participants at the meeting also had question marks. Luo Sheng had to casually ignore this topic and returned to the theme of today's meeting.

The original text of the post 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 technical monopoly. It gives Bluestar Technology the ability to affect the way all web browsing works, which is far beyond what most people can do. In terms of consciousness, Afarid is a monopoly business under Blue Star Technology that should be spun off. But no matter what, we will fight through Chre for a truly open Web and be prepared to sacrifice. 】

And Larry Page reposted this message two hours after posting this dynamic message:

[No one knows better than me about the dangers of Bluestar’s monopoly on magnesium. He monopolizes too many fields, from mobile phones to PCs, video sharing, music, navigation, dining and entertainment guides and ratings, electronic reading publications, Video content on-demand stations, Internet finance, online books...]

Understand Wang forwarded and commented on a wave of seemingly uncomfortable, so he posted angrily:

[Oh, yes, they also have data analysis and consulting services for the company, he is really all-inclusive. When his big net is getting bigger and bigger, so big that your life depends on it every time but you are not aware of it, it means that it takes over your life, this is the mess left by the last term, no one is better than me Understand how bad this is. 】

After a while, Zhang Bowen at the video conference ridiculed and said: "It seems that Google should be really anxious this time, and he will not hesitate to make a move like the Seven Injuries."

A dynamic news from a Silicon Valley technocrat posted on MicroBlog asked Luo Sheng to hold a meeting to discuss it because the situation behind this matter was too abnormalThe Silicon Valley technocrats and Knowing Wang’s relationship is not very good, this is no longer a secret, and almost no one supports Knowing Wang.

However, Page, as one of the most famous technology giants in Silicon Valley, and the Alphabet company behind it are the best multinational technology giants in Silicon Valley, but now it gives people a sense of harmony and intriguing.

Zhang Bowen said that Google made a move with seven injuries and it was not unreasonable for two reasons:

First, if Google comes to understand Wang Mei, it will inevitably make other Silicon Valley gangsters unhappy and be regarded as traitors.

Second, Page took the initiative to propose a monopoly spin-off to the technology giants. If Bluestar North America was split, the technology giants in Silicon Valley could not run, including Amazon, Microsoft, and even Google itself. The spin-off is undoubtedly more resentful of the Silicon Valley gangsters.

But if we stand on Alphabet's standpoint, it's another matter. In a word: the enemy has to enter my homeland to demolish the crystal, and the labor and management can't manage that much.
