My 1999

Since Dr. Moore proposed Moore's Law in 1965, the performance of computer processors and memories has increased by 20 million times and 1 billion times respectively.

The price is constantly falling, so that it can be applied to all walks of life and all aspects of life.

From this we can again make a similar conclusion.

Existing industries + Moore’s Law = new industries.

So many people say that.

The emergence of computers has given rise to mankind’s ‘third technological revolution’.

I couldn't agree more.

Computers have profoundly changed the production and life of human society, giving rise to many industries that did not exist before.

Such as the chip industry, software industry and hardware industry.

Industrial giants such as Intel, Microsoft, and IBM were born.

But human development continues, and our story is not over.

In 1969, humanity’s first Internet, ARPANET, was born.

Although it is very primitive and only used in the military, it has broken the most difficult process from 0 to 1.

In 1978, the then-famous Bell Labs proposed UNIX and the UNIX Copy Protocol, which laid the foundation for the development of the Internet.

In 1989, another major event occurred in the history of popularizing Internet applications.

Tim Berners-Lee and others at CERN proposed a protocol for classifying information on the Internet.

This protocol, known as WWW (World Wide Web) after 1991, is based on the hypertext protocol.

A system of linking text that embeds text within another text. You can use them to select a text link at any time while you are reading these pages.

In 1994, a Chinese-American and an English-American founded the now world-famous Internet giant Yahoo in a trailer at Stanford University. "

Yang Zhiyuan showed a smile on his face.

He was very satisfied with Xu Liang's statement that Yahoo was an 'Internet giant'.

“The establishment of Yahoo has enabled almost all Internet users in the world to access most of the world’s news through Yahoo’s web pages without leaving home.

Its appearance has once again narrowed the psychological distance between everyone in the world.

Let the ‘global village’ truly have a basis for realization.

Yahoo is not the only one. Internet companies such as Hongmeng, Amazon, eBay, Google, Netflix, etc. have appeared one after another.

The emergence of Hongmeng Bing and Google has profoundly changed the advertising industry.

In the past advertising industry, advertising was very broad, and advertisers could not accurately understand whether the ads they placed were effective, or how effective they were?

Hongmeng Bing and Google, for the first time, allow advertisers to clearly understand the number of user clicks and conversion rates after advertising is placed, and the charges are lower than traditional advertising.

Amazon and eBay have changed the traditional commercial retail model.

In traditional retail, even if you go to the largest shopping mall, you can only see no more than 100,000 products.

But on online e-commerce websites, you can check out millions, or even millions, of products.

Moreover, layers of distributors have been eliminated, making products cheaper and saving expenses.

There are many similar business models.

But this is far from the end, but just the beginning.

The Internet will profoundly affect all aspects of business and economy. In the future, please note, I am talking about all industries that do not embrace the Internet, and will be eliminated by society!

Here we have the fourth formula.

Existing industries + Internet = new industries.

Everyone, we are very lucky to be standing at the window of the "Fourth Industrial Revolution". If we seize your company, we can become the next Hongmeng and the next Amazon.

And you yourself will become a world-class rich man, even the richest man in the world.

If you can't catch it, then I'm sorry, this world will never give mercy to losers. "

——

"The Fourth Industrial Revolution?" "--Economist.

"Is it a prophecy of genius or an echo of arrogance? "--New York Times.

"Existing Industries + Internet = New Industries" - Newsweek.

"He predicted the future!" "--Fortune Magazine.

On the second day after the Hanhua North America Investment Reception, all major mainstream media and business weeklies around the world published Xu Liang's speech at the reception as front-page headlines.

Even "Times" deliberately put Xu Liang's image on the cover of its "Global Edition".

It was accompanied by the text ‘Prophet’, but with a question mark after it.

Xu Liang is now the world's top business tycoon because of Hanhua and Hongmeng, as well as the publication of the Forbes Rich List.

With the help of major media, it soon spread to all parts of the world.

It soon caused an uproar in the global business community.

Those who agree with him think he is a genius.

Those who are jealous of him think that he is young, arrogant and ignorant. He has made some achievements and just points out the country. He has no idea.

Regardless of external disturbances, Xu Liang still sits firmly on Diaoyutai.

"Xu, there are already countless reporters outside who want to interview you."

Bill Gates looked at the man wearing a straw hat and fishing quietly next to him and said with a smile.

"Bill, this is why I don't want to be interviewed. Fame is a burden to me." Xu Liangdao.

"When we reach our current heights, we will definitely become the focus of media attention. It is inevitable."

Xu Liang sighed, "That's why I came to hide with you for two days."

Old Gates smiled and said, "You can live here forever if you want."

In fact, Xu Liang only came here occasionally during the day.

"Xu, are you really so optimistic about the future of the Internet?"

"This should be a no-brainer question, otherwise why would I do Hongmeng?"

"Hongmeng is great, but you scared a lot of people by referring to the Internet as the fourth industrial revolution."

"Frightened?"

Xu Liang smiled and shook his head, "Probably he was laughing at me for not overestimating my abilities."

At this time, a tall woman came over carrying a tray.

There are cut fruits inside.

"Xu, here."

"Thank you, Melinda."

"You're welcome."

After also giving a share to old Gates.

"Xu, Bill and I like little Carlos very much and hope to adopt him as our godson." Melinda said suddenly.

Old Gates also smiled and nodded.

"Xu, little Carlos is a cute child. We liked him very much when we first met."

Looking at the two people in front of him, Xu Liang nodded after thinking briefly.

Regardless of whether Old Gates really liked him or simply wanted to strengthen the relationship with him in this way, Xu Liang had no intention of refusing.

With the relationship of the Gates family, the Xu family will be more stable in North America in the future.

"OK."

"Thank you, Xu." Melinda smiled.

"Little Carlos is lucky to have you as his godfather and godmother." Xu Liang said with a smile.

Jingle Bell…….

The phone rang.

After picking up.

"Mr. Xu, Mr. Moretz from Sequoia hopes to meet you." Lu Hui said.

"Did you mention something?"

"No."

"I understand. I'll meet him on the yacht in the afternoon."

"OK."

After hanging up the phone.

"Bill and Melinda, we originally planned to stay a few more days, but now it seems it's impossible."

"Xu, our place is open to you at any time." Old Gates said.

"Thanks."

The couple personally sent Xu Liang out of the manor.

Looking at the car shadow in the distance.

"Bill, do you really like him?"

Old Gates nodded affirmatively.

"What he's achieved is amazing, I've never seen anyone achieve as much as he does at this young age."

"Many people are not optimistic about his future." Melinda said.

"Think he's young?"

"Yes. Young people are always very impatient."

"Dear, when I first met him, I had the same idea as you, but after more than three years, I have never seen in him the slightest bit of stubbornness, pride, and rashness that young people often have.

Instead, I saw maturity, stability and restraint. "

"Reserved? His speech just shocked the world." Melinda couldn't help but remind her.

"This is normal. With Xu Liang's current status, if he does something a little outrageous, it will become global business headlines the next day.

In fact, from the time he became successful to now, he rarely attends business receptions and private banquets, and never messes around outside.

He won't talk nonsense in the media like that idiot Ellison.

Most successful people in this world cannot do this.

Coupled with his age, this is even more rare.

Young, disciplined, smart, and with extraordinary business talent, I can't figure out why he failed. "

"Is this why you think so highly of him?"

"Isn't this enough?"

"I admit that what you said is correct. But don't forget that a Chinese-American will never have a place in the United States."

Old Gates sighed softly, "Melinda, the world is very big, and the United States is not the only country.

China's economy is developing very fast, and that is a market we cannot miss.

Having Xu Liang as an ally can help us solve a lot of troubles. "

Melinda was shocked. She had never thought of this.

"Bill, maybe we should think about getting a nicer gift for our godson now."

Gates Sr. smiled and held her hand.

"That's right."

——

After leaving Gates' home, Xu Liang drove to a private dock.

A white luxury yacht is parked on the dock.

During this time, due to harassment from reporters.

He couldn't go to his home and company in Silicon Valley, so he rented a yacht as his temporary office and residence.

It happened that he had been busy with work during this period, and he was tired, so he came out to relax.

"boss."

Lu Hui greeted him.

Xu Liang nodded and asked, "What time did you make the appointment with the Sequoia people?"

"3 p.m."

"Remind me when they arrive."

"OK."

After entering the yacht, Fukuda Shinmi and Nagasawa Masami happily greeted them.

"Xu Jun..."

He hugged the two of them into his arms and kissed each other's soft red lips.

"Didn't you go out to play?"

The two shook their heads.

"Xu Jun, I have good news for you." Futian Xinmei said happily.

"good news?"
