Chapter 477
Jim Clark raised his glass, had a drink with Song Yang, and left contentedly. This time he started a tour across America, in addition to gaining public opinion support for Netscape, and also for the post-Netscape era. Make arrangements, that is, prepare to quit Netscape!
The latter is even more important. After all, it is related to Jim Clark's pension money. Now that Song Yang has promised, Jim Clark feels relieved.

For Song Yang's promise, Jim Clark is trustworthy. As long as Song Yang is willing to bear the price hike for Netscape, whether it is AOL, Yahoo, General Electric or other technology giants buying Netscape, he will have to bleed once. , anyway, as long as it is not sold to Microsoft, Netscape will sell it to whoever pays the highest price!
Looking at the figure of Jim Clark leaving, Song Yang shook his head lightly. If Netscape changes its management, then Silicon Valley will change.

Whether you want to admit it or not, Netscape is one of the fronts of the Internet when the Internet has risen in the past few years. Now, if Netscape falls from the altar, there will definitely be a new Internet giant to replace Netscape. There will never be a shortage of industry leaders in this industry!

After Jim Clark left, he chatted for a while with all the celebrities present and the wives of the Internet company founders. After drinking a lot of wine, Irene, who was blushing on her face, returned to Song Yang's side.

"Have you finished talking with Jim Clark?" Irene asked, leaning against Song Yang breathlessly.

Song Yang looked at Irene who looked a little drunk, a little less of the usual strong woman demeanor, and a little more of a soft and charming Irene. Song Yang couldn't help but think of her performance like a little wild cat on the bed, and couldn't help but embrace her. Irene's waist, and walked outside the villa.

"After a while, we may be witnessing a new history of the Internet!"

After talking with Jim Clark, the purpose of this trip was basically completed, and Song Yang didn't have the mood to stay at the banquet anymore.

"Bill Gates returned to America today. According to Bill Gates' personal assistant and a Microsoft spokesperson, Bill Gates has not sued the cake attacker Godin and announced that he will not pursue legal responsibility!"

In the morning, when Song Yang came to the meeting room of the ICQ office building, there were quite a few executives from ICQ and other departments sitting there, and they were all watching the news on TV with great interest.

Bill Gates, who returned to America from Belgium, was scouted by the powerful media. As soon as he got off the private plane, he was surrounded by a large group of media reporters and began to bombard him, asking various questions. But the most important thing is the problem of throwing the cake.

Watching on TV, Bill Gates was exposed by a group of media reporters, who asked Bill Gates why he became the person who was thrown the cake, and whether he was thrown because he couldn't understand Microsoft's monopoly, and whether Bill Gates would Will sue this person and many other issues.

A group of executives sitting in the conference room couldn't help laughing when they saw this group of active reporters. Otherwise, they said that Microsoft was in trouble, and all parties praised it. This time, the media and reporters were obviously trying to catch Microsoft.

When Song Yang entered the meeting room, all the executives got up quickly, Song Yang waved his hands, and cast his eyes on the TV.

"This was just an accident. Bill Gates has reached a settlement with Mr. Godin. The two of them even had dinner in Belgium. They are now friends. This is just a prank, nothing more!"

The lawyer standing in front of Bill Gates spoke to the media and reporters, emphasizing that Bill Gates had influenced the attacker Noel Godin with his powerful personality, and made it clear that he would not sue again Godin.

But when he said this, Bill Gates was surrounded by a large group of bodyguards, staring around nervously, for fear that another person would appear and throw something at Bill Gates!
Not only Bill Gates, the top richest people in America these days have a sudden increase in demand for high-end security, especially those Wall Street companies and rich people with bad reputations who have cheated a lot of leeks, such as Goldman Sachs, Carl Icahn and his ilk are the most nervous this time, for fear that the leeks will also learn from Noel Godin and do something out of the ordinary. Even the old man, Comrade Buffett, will not drive the iconic old car again. Instead of a car, he replaced it with an anti-theft car driven by a bodyguard to commute to work.

After all, the leeks in America really have guns. If one of them can't think about it and there is a bloody battle on Wall Street, then it is estimated that they will really stop eating!
This strong market demand has driven the security market in America. Blackwater Security Company has become the biggest beneficiary. In just a few days, it has received orders of more than 3000 million US dollars. It can be seen that the rich people in America , I still care about my own life.

After all, there are so many beautiful knives, if the little life is gone like this, then the remaining beautiful knives, I don’t know who is cheaper, think about it, if the value of hundreds of millions of billions of US knives suddenly disappears, then It is possible that other men spent the money he left behind, sleeping with his model wife, and beating his cubs. Thinking about it this way, the annual security fee of several million dollars provided by the Blackwater Company does not seem to be so Expensive……

"As you can see, all the bodyguards around Bill Gates have been replaced, so it is very likely that Bill Gates has fired all the security personnel around him!"

After the news clip, the TV host began to analyze frame by frame, and it was obvious that the security personnel around Bill Gates in Belgium had disappeared, and the people who appeared beside Bill Gates The bodyguards are all new faces.

In other words, Bill Gates didn't sue Noel Godin, but he didn't swallow his anger. Instead, he turned his anger on the bodyguards, fired all the security personnel, and replaced them with a new batch!
After seeing this, Song Yang asked people to turn off the TV. Bill Gates chose the safest way, let the bodyguards take the blame, reconciled with Godin, and got back part of his reputation. The classic scene is basically over.

The conference room began to fill up one after another. Today is the last meeting before PayPal goes online. Not only PayPal and ICQ in the same building attended the meeting, but also people from Feita, Double Click, ebay, Yeadex and other companies, also All will participate in this meeting by telephone.

Irene finally entered the meeting room. Irene, who was dressed in a lady's small suit, regained her image of a strong woman, with a cold look on her face, but when she met Song Yang's eyes, Irene immediately turned her head away. aside.

Song Yang looked at Irene, and couldn't help but think of Irene's wildness on the bed last night. He seemed to guess what Song Yang was thinking. After sitting down, Irene coughed, and the meeting room suddenly became quiet.

"PayPal has almost completed development and will be launched on schedule!"

Song Yang opened his mouth and said to the executives in the meeting room and the people who participated in the meeting through the phone call, "I need all departments to cooperate with PayPal's plan!"

It was the first time that Aaron Swartz met with so many colleagues on behalf of PayPal, and Aaron Swartz was a little nervous.

"On behalf of PayPal, I would like to thank you for your support. Now that PayPal has been developed, it is working on system integration with Bank of Comelica. It is expected to be completed soon, and PayPal will start trial operation!"

Those who came to this meeting today basically know what they are here for. Just after Aaron Swartz finished speaking, Xie Qing, President of Fortinet, said at this time, "The payment security system specially developed by Fortinet for PayPal has already After the development is complete, this security system will be embedded in the PayPal payment system, and every time a payment is made, the user's payment environment will be checked for security!"

"In addition, the three secure computing centers invested by Fortinet and PayPal will also be put into operation in the near future, which will make PayPal one of the companies with the most secure servers in the Internet industry in the world...!"

When he said this, Xie Qing had confidence. Feita was the first to play with online anti-virus software. It used to provide anti-virus software support for Hotmail mailboxes, followed by ICQ and Xueleshan Online. Lao Maozi's Yeadex, eBay, Amazon, Sohu, 8848, Softbank and a large group of Internet companies provide security systems.

Not to mention anything else, just talking about experience, in the Internet online antivirus industry alone, Feita is ranked second, and no one dares to be the first!

Xie Qing did not set a flag, saying that the PayPal server is a fortress that hackers will never be able to capture, but he also said that PayPal's security protection is the best in the Internet industry, even surpassing the security protection level of many small banks.

"In addition, Fortinet will also give away and promote UTM equipment to PayPal users!"

Fertile water does not flow into the fields of outsiders, and Feita also wants to take advantage of the promotion of PayPal to catch a wave of enthusiasm and promote a wave of UTM anti-virus security equipment developed by Feita.

The current situation of Feita is quite embarrassing. It seems that the momentum is huge, but whether it is popular or not, the key to making money is that Feita is playing online free anti-virus business, which quickly attracted tens of millions of people around the world. Users, compared with Norton, McAfee and other enterprise-level paid antivirus software, are too unprofitable.

Xie Qing and Feita are now counting on the development of PayPal. At that time, the antivirus industry will have strong demand, which will also drive the Fortigate UTM equipment bundled with PayPal!

After Xie Qing finished speaking, Irene also said that ICQ and PayPal are in the same building, and even the office was lent by PayPal from ICQ, and the relationship between the two parties is also the closest.

"ICQ will provide advertising support for PayPal on the space platform, and Xueleshan Online will open a payment channel for PayPal and hold payment reduction activities!"

Irene made ICQ pay for PayPal to advertise. Now on Sierra Online, eBay, Amazon and other platforms, when users pay, they generally choose credit card, bank card, or email to pay, but the process is very cumbersome and requires various A verification and other auxiliary tools.

Users who want Xueleshan online to use PayPal to pay when buying games must have sweetness, otherwise how can they attract users to switch to PayPal.
