Global Monopoly of Technology

The time is getting closer and closer in September. Luo Sheng completed the big strategic layout of the Blue Star Technology Group's cloud computing services. The rest of the work was left to Zhang Bowen and others to deal with. There was a little trouble in the middle, but the problem was not big. .

Luo Sheng also focused on the French Riviera company.

"You reminded me of the situation of Sun Microsystems early on. This company has recently made new moves." Early this morning, Qin Weimu came to Luo Sheng's office on the Azure Coast.

Sun Microsystems is an IT company that Luo Sheng has been paying attention to, and it is also a North American high-tech company that he wants to acquire. This company is probably best known for its Java language.

Luo Sheng put down his work and looked at Qin Weimu: "What action?"

"On May 28, according to foreign media reports, Google search giant Google is currently conspiring to acquire Sun Microsystems, a poor company." Qin Weimu gave him a collated material.

Luo Sheng took it to take a look, the material is mainly collected some of the latest news in the industry.

In order to maintain continuous growth, Google may choose Sun to use its hardware, storage, StarOffice, JAVA, and other product components as a powerful and sustainable platform.

In Luo Sheng's last life, Sun Microsystems was eventually acquired by Oracle for $ 7.4 billion. At that time, Google, Oracle, and IBM were all competing for it. In the end, Oracle led by Larry Ellison won.

But for Luo Sheng, the development trajectory of the last life can only be used for reference. At present, the world has changed tremendously because of his appearance.

"It may be true that the Internet transmission is true. Google's current CEO, Eric Schmidt, was once the chief technology officer of Sun Microsystems, and was the best person to deal with this transaction." Luo Sheng said to himself. Said.

Google ’s market value has fallen sharply recently, but according to Sun ’s current market value, Google does n’t have to pay much at all, and acquiring Sun is not difficult.

However, the actual situation is not easy for Google, and the purchase price is not a big problem for Google. How to integrate the cultures of the two companies is the key issue.

If you refer to the previous life, Google did not complete the acquisition, but it is hard to say now.

"The peculiar **** really messes me up ..." Luo Sheng put down the material files in his hands and laughed, but it can also be seen that Google is not vegetarian, and Eric Schmidt has something.

Luo Sheng's attempt to acquire Sun was not easy at all, nor was he absolutely able to do so, not because of the purchase price, but because of his identity as a Chinese.

If Google stepped in at this time, it would undoubtedly add another layer of variables.

Attempting to set up a data center in North America is trying to obstruct it. If the acquisition of Sun is more difficult than that, even if the company has a market value of more than 200 billion US dollars from its peak to now only about 18 billion US dollars.

Sun Microsystems is destined to be a company with a place in the IT industry. This company took nearly two decades from startup to prosperity, but it only took one year to collapse. The Internet bubble burst in 2000. One of the epitome of tragedy.

The reason for this failure is that the hardware culture that has always occupied the mainstream has misled Sun's development. From the perspective of hardware manufacturers, the understanding of the market completely emphasizes high-end, low volume, and high value from the perspective of hardware manufacturers, and deploys network computers in this way.

As for the characteristics and functions of software products, the trend of software dominating the market in the market is not worth mentioning in front of sales indicators, partners, channel plans and supply chains.

Sun's most valuable places are open systems and classic Java, but they don't make good use of them.

Perhaps because the hardware and operating system were so good at the time, Sun was only selling these things to large and medium-sized enterprises to build a hardware empire. But they ignored the small business and microcomputer user market that Microsoft and Intel are testing for free and selling services, secretly fighting guerrilla wars.

Luo Sheng, of course, very much wants to acquire Sun. The thin-skinned camel is larger than the horse, which is very beneficial to the future layout.

He did not want to start with Sun at this time, because the price is still a bit high. Even if he wants to acquire, the acquisition must be completed through the cross-shareholding of Bluestar Technology Group without the North American authorities obstructing it.

Sun is no longer declining. The current market value is also a technology company with a volume of 10 billion US dollars. Luo Sheng is playing the abacus and waits for 2007 or 2008. When the financial turmoil sweeps over, he will take the opportunity to take the opportunity. But it's hard to say.

Luo Sheng could not predict whether Google would win Sun, but he was absolutely sure that the US credit default in 2007 would definitely not run away, and the detonators had been buried. The detonation was only a matter of time and there was no need to delve into it. Just take a look at the fact that half of the top ten listed companies in the world's market capitalization are financial companies.

This storm hit, not only Sun's stock price will follow a big drop, Luo Sheng will also have enough cash on hand to see the harvest, foreshadowing has long been buried.

When he was thinking, Qin Weimu watched him remind him: "I am afraid that it is impossible to acquire Sun on the French Riviera. First, there is no financial resources for the acquisition. Second, even if the financial situation is sufficient, the North American authorities may have passed this level. No, the Blue Coast does not have the support of Wall Street. The acquisition is also Bluestar Technology, and even Bluestar Technology may not be able to achieve it. "

After hearing the words, Luo Sheng could not help but smile: "Then Blue Star Technology has ambitions, how do you know without trying?"

If the current market and environment, Qin Weimu is right, the hope of acquisition is slim.

There is still opportunity next year. When the storm hits Laomei next year, there is no time to take care of it. In that kind of bad time, the success rate is the biggest.

If it is regrettable that Sun cannot acquire Luo Sheng, but it will not be too tangled, then MySQLAB from Sweden is inevitable. This company will take no effort, even through cross-shareholding. In the bag.

Because it is very important to Bluestar's data core, MySQL is a completely free and open source relational data management system.

Compared with other large databases such as Oracle's Oracle, MySQL has its shortcomings, but this has not reduced its popularity. For ordinary individual users and small and medium-sized enterprises, MySQL provides functions It is more than enough, and because it is open source software, it can greatly reduce the total cost of ownership.

Bluestar Technology can't afford expensive services like Oracle in the early stages of startup. BlueSpace runs on MySQL, including now.

And it turns out that MySQL can fully support large-scale applications, including the current Google database, Bluestar technology database, and so on.

Especially in the Internet industry, 80% of the world's top 20 Internet companies are currently using MySQL databases.

At present, in the domestic Internet industry, it is difficult to find a few companies that are not supported by MySQL databases. Only a few Microsoft websites are not used. MySQL is undoubtedly the leader in this field. If you buy this company now, it will not exceed 1 billion. US dollars.

But for Luo Sheng, the biggest difficulty in acquiring MySQL company is also not a matter of money ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ The problem that can be solved if you use money is really a small problem, the problem is the EU It ’s not that easy, but because of his identity as a Chinese, Europeans and Americans are actually very wary of the expansion of the Chinese in the field of science and technology, especially this kind of acquisition, not that you can get it with money .

Unless Luo Sheng changes his nationality, this will definitely be much easier and many obstacles will disappear.

But there is no doubt that Luo Sheng does not have the option to change his nationality here.

Whether it is the acquisition of Sun Corporation in North America or MySQLAB in Sweden, it is not urgent for Luo Sheng to deal with it immediately.

He needs time, time, and opportunity. He needs to wait until the storm that sweeps the world, and then make further plans.
