Chapter 497

Name:Hollywood Hunter Author:Just Do
According to the Forbes list of the 400 richest people in North America in 1992, after Simon's $65 billion and Damen's $7.5 billion, John Kruger, an old media tycoon, ranked by his personal wealth of $5.5 billion. It took Simon westero only six years to accumulate his wealth.

Of course, there is no lack of discussion about whether Simon has so much wealth at this time.

However, only Cisco, AOL, Microsoft, Intel and other high-tech companies listed in the westero system have dazzled people.

Danylis entertainment, which has created a series of box office miracles, completed the merger of MCA and created the DC movie universe, is more like a potential big Mac. Unlike a series of listed companies such as Cisco, the huge danilisi entertainment is still completely owned by Simon westero.

In addition, Verizon Telecom, cersei capital, melisandro company, igritte company and so on, the strength of these enterprises can not be underestimated.

Such a huge business empire has been ubiquitous in American life. The founder's personal wealth has reached 65 billion US dollars. Although the asset growth in a short period of one year has reached an amazing 30 billion US dollars, careful statistics show that it is not so unacceptable.

With the media reports and the public's hot discussion, the technology and entertainment sector of American story will inevitably rise again after the release of the new year's "rich list".

Hollywood has too much uncertainty and high threshold. Therefore, the booming new technology industry has once again attracted more and more attention.

In September, the 1992 presidential election of the United States also entered the latest sprint stage.

The candidates of both parties in the United States have been confirmed, and the current President George Bush easily won the nomination of the Republican Party. After defeating a series of competitors, Bill Clinton successfully became Bush's competitor.

When this year's "Forbes" list was released, the two candidates' views on Simon westero's personal wealth during their campaign have also become an important issue frequently mentioned by media reporters.

In this respect, George Bush is more embarrassed.

In connection with the US economy in recent years, media reporters like to ask George W. Bush how he plans to solve the growing personal wealth of the top rich in the United States and the record poverty rate and high unemployment rate in the United States.

As we all know, the president's favorite concern is still overseas issues. To be more accurate, it is oil.

There is almost no doubt that the Bush family is an important part of the US oil group.

The president is really not interested in the American economy.

Of course, this is the truth, but I can't say it, so I have to deal with it.

In this respect, Clinton seems to be at ease.

Clinton's campaign slogan is related to economy. When the presidential candidate is asked similar questions, he often skillfully turns the topic to the new science and technology field that is rapidly breaking out in the United States. At the same time, he contacts Al Gore's "information superhighway" plan, and constantly describes the prospect that he will promote another great change in the U.S. economy after his election, In particular, how many opportunities, how much wealth and how many jobs will this economic change bring to the United States.

In fact, many of the data cited by Bill Clinton are quietly provided by the westero system.

With Cisco, AOL and igritte as the three Internet giants, and Simon's advantages as a prophet, no one knows the development prospects of new technology in the next few years better than Westeros.

This information is certainly not available to the George Bush camp.

Moreover, it is an indisputable fact that Hollywood and Silicon Valley have largely sided with Bill Clinton.

As for these two forces, one holds a large amount of wealth in the United States, and the other holds a large amount of public opinion resources, the Bush administration can only try its best to attract them.

For Simon, in the face of the wave of public opinion after the release of the rich list, the westrow system will certainly not be indifferent.

Hatred for the rich is an emotion that no society will lack. Therefore, the public relations team of westero system has been fully operating during this period, focusing on Simon's promotion as a special case, a miracle, not just a pure super rich.

The public will always be more receptive to miracles.

Simon's personal wealth is worthy of the title of miracle.

If there are comments, exclamations and admirations, there will be no lack of pertinence and doubt.

It's not just the presidential election in the United States, it's also the election year of the house and Senate in the United States. The two presidential candidates will take Simon's approach too deliberately, but some members of Congress will not make too many estimates in order to support him.

After the release of the Forbes list, a Republican candidate for the Senate in California soon began to accuse the three companies of westrow system that their strong position in the emerging Internet field hindered the development of competitors in the same industry.

The congressman was very cautious and did not use monopoly words directly.The Internet industry is still in the early stage of development, and igrit is still in the stage of continuous loss.

It is obviously too early to blame monopoly.

Moreover, igritte has not only actively opened a series of core patents of the world wide web, but also spared no effort to create a positive image of openness and sharing for itself in this process.

In addition, AOL is not a monopoly because of its limited business scope.

Cisco, the only company with obvious monopoly suspicion, happens to have a relatively single product, and is basically the only one in North America. You can't force others to license the product that you have worked so hard to invent to other companies.

Of course, with the continuous outbreak of the Internet industry, the dominant position of the three companies in the whole industry in the mainland is becoming more and more obvious.

In private, when we seriously consider some joint strategies, we do touch the relevant anti-monopoly laws and regulations of the United States.

But, after all, it's just a matter of whether we need to be more serious.

No business giant in the United States dares to say that he has never violated the anti-monopoly laws of the United States.

However, the Senate candidate's "timing" of this accusation is not good, because igritte just has to make a key move of opening technology to the outside world.

This is the e-mail technology that many companies have been eyeing for a long time.

As one of the most widely used technologies of igrit portal, almost every World Wide Web user will register an e-mail after logging into igrit portal.

Therefore, as of September 1992, the e-mail registration volume of igrit portal has reached 37 million, and the daily active users have exceeded 10 million.

With such a huge user base, any technology company with a little vision can understand the huge business opportunities it contains.

Igrit portal's revenue from e-mail advertising is also rising.

However, for the outside world, this may be a huge group of users. For the igritte team, e-mail service means huge operating expenses every moment.

Even if it's worth the expense, it doesn't prevent igritte's team from starting other businesses through e-mail technology.

Open e-mail technology was initially proposed by Carol Bartz, the head of software services business.

As a powerful tool for igrit portal to gather user groups, the portal team naturally won't agree.

The dispute between the two sides finally fell to Simon's side.

Carol Bartz had taken over the business of e-mail enterprise services. However, up to now, Bartz's team has also found that instead of providing direct e-mail service from igritte, it is better to directly provide users with a complete set of e-mail technology and solutions. Igritte does not need to deal with the remaining server maintenance, e-mail technology management and other sensitive matters related to content.

Doing so, on the one hand, can reduce the company's operation investment in enterprise e-mail service to the greatest extent, and can also avoid the legal risks related to information disclosure.

It was the latter reason that moved Simon.

Although the privacy regulations in the Internet field in the United States have not yet appeared, it does not mean that igritte does not need to bear the relevant risks

it operates a huge e-mail user group. In fact, igritte is frequently attacked by hackers, and the company's security team is becoming larger and larger.

Now, if we only provide technology and services, and the management of e-mail is the responsibility of users themselves, igrit can get rid of a large part of the responsibility after the information leakage accident.

In addition, there are many more long-term considerations.

For example, the U.S. government inevitably monitors the Internet.

Later, the United States always used to accuse other countries of stealing Internet information and threatening network security. It is not clear what other countries should do. However, the United States government's monitoring of the Internet has broken out more than once.

On the original time line, after 9 / 11, the Patriot Act promoted by the Bush administration is actually a monitoring act.

The bill provides that the U.S. government has the right to view citizens' e-mails in the name of national security belts.

With the long-standing monitoring habit of the US government, even without 911, Simon can be sure that the US government will intervene in the Internet for other reasons in the future.

If there is only one e-mail service platform on the Internet platform, then, no matter whether it agrees with the monitoring requirements of the U.S. government or not, igrit will face strong pressure.

Now, if we take the initiative to give up the monopoly of e-mail technology, so that a large number of e-mail service providers and a larger number of private or enterprise e-mail servers appear in the Internet market, what the US government wants to do, it will no longer be the igritts that need to bear the pressure.

What's more, by liberalizing e-mail technology and rapidly promoting igrit's standards, other companies can avoid developing alternative technologies.

Igritte no longer provides a full set of services, and no longer restricts the server to igritte network platform. Users can build their own servers and process information by themselves, which can also make many companies concerned about confidentiality accept this service. Therefore, it is conducive to the wider promotion of e-mail service.To finalize this, Simon spent a few days in San Francisco to discuss the overall details of the open e-mail technology with igritte's team.

Just as California's Senate candidates accused vestro of controlling the Internet industry, the plan had just been determined. As a counterattack, the igritte team held a press conference to announce it.

Of course, after several disputes and compromises, this technology will still be a limited open.

In the short term, the objects of technology openness will only face the companies, enterprises and government departments, and the organizations authorized by technology can not provide e-mail service to the public unless they are allowed.

By doing so, it is obvious that competitors of igritt mailbox can be avoided.

Moreover, the restrictions imposed by igritte are entirely reasonable in the eyes of outsiders.

However, Simon does not intend to completely control the presence of other service providers.

In fact, after the plan was completed, the igritte team began secret negotiations with Microsoft and AOL.

As long as the agreement can be reached smoothly, AOL and Microsoft will start their own e-mail service business.

Of course, this technology can not only be authorized to mainland enterprises of westero system. In the face of many applicants, igrit is also looking for other partners in westero system.

So until September 16, when Simon returned to Los Angeles, danielis Entertainment's autumn show "Desperate Housewives" for USA TV network was about to officially start.
