In the previous half of the chapter, it is clear that the starting point or q_q mobile client of this chapter has been opened. At that time, you can long press the name of this chapter on the directory interface and download it again.

...

"For example, who are there?" Tang Huan put down his cup and asked casually.

"The biggest one is News Corp..." Steve Keys, who was obviously more cunning with his high position and his power, paused for a moment before continuing: "And Time Warner Turner Broadcasting Group."

Mr. Fu pondered: "What is your true thought?"

Steve Case, who seemed to have thought about it for a long time, replied smoothly: "Internet applications have indeed brought many new elements, which have caused an impact on the traditional application model. But I think it is not realistic to replace the latter; on the contrary, the two should be a complementary relationship - the former opens up ideas for the latter and increases vitality; the latter helps the former to be down-to-earth and improves risk resistance."

"You are very calm and pragmatic." Tang Huan praised with surprise.

It has to be said that since the Internet era began, some trendsetters have become almost as energetic as "they are the omnipotent God", and risky funds have also indulged in such arrogance.

But the reality is that even when e-commerce became popular in more than ten years later, it was not able to completely replace physical stores, but ultimately tended to be a joint exhibition path online and offline.

If the skin is gone, where will the hair be attached? After all, no matter how popular the hype is, it is essentially a tool to serve traditional industries.

The reason why the current Internet exhibition can get better in the United States is not because it has the corresponding material foundation to support it - companies with a large number of traditional models value the new opportunities it brings and are willing to pay.

Therefore, whenever you see a business plan that deceives Internet applications to the level of "permanent motion", Mr. Fu will be directly alert.

Unexpectedly, Steve Case, who is already a successful model of Internet entrepreneurship, can actually "sink" his heart and rationally position the "new" of the Internet and the "old" of the traditional industry.

Tang Huan asked in a deep thought: "In this way, do you tend to cooperate deeply with traditional media?"

"I think that if A.N.com wants to really become bigger, this is the most suitable choice." Steve Case tentatively smiled and tentatively said: "But compared with Time Warner Turner Broadcasting Group, A.N.com is still relatively weak; and Times Group has merged Warner Media and Turner Broadcasting Corporation all the way, with amazing digestion ability - I'm afraid that by then, A.N.com will become another American Online."

"Your worries make sense." Tang Huan nodded, "Take the case that ibm acquired Lotus Software Company last year. In just half a year, the original management of Lotus Software Company has been wiped out."

Steve Case was so straightforward and smiled awkwardly by the big boss, and for a moment, he didn't know how to respond.

Tang Huan continued to say, "Although I have some say in Time Warner Turner Broadcasting Group, I can't guarantee that there will be no major changes in the management of AOL at that time."

"However, the prediction we made is based on the comparison between the weak American Online and the strong Times Warner Turner Broadcasting Group." Mr. Fu looked at his subordinates whom he trained and smiled playfully: "And one feature of the Internet is to create miracles - who is sure that in two years, the United States Online will not be stronger than the Times Warner Turner Broadcasting Group?"

Steve Keith thought for a moment and suddenly said, "I understand."

"Then you should know how to do it." Tang Huan smiled and waved his hand, "I won't leave you for a long time - after the meeting with you, I will continue to attend the meetings of Pacific Telecom and Datang Mobile Communications Company."

"I know what to do." Steve Case answered confidently and stood up to say goodbye.

Looking at the other party's departure, Tang Huan felt thoughtful.

He was not surprised by the ultimate destination of the first clue of the United States Online, because the alliance in the capital world is sometimes like a family that will make friends with children and relatives. After seeing each other, they still have to reach a close negotiation.

Take American Online for example. There are not many people who can deserve its marriage now, and forces like News Corporation that have been full of grievances will definitely be eliminated first; coupled with the factor of getting the moon first, the remaining choices are about to come out.

Since this trend is strengthening, the corresponding layout should also be considered - after all, it is better not to fail in sanity with Tang Fu stakeholders!

However, as I said to Steve Keys just now, Tang Huan has more important meetings waiting for him to attend.

Gain, on February 8 not long ago, US President Bill Collinton signed the new version of the telecommunications law passed by the 104th Congress of the United States on January 3 this year, announcing that it will be officially implemented.

You should know that the introduction of the 1996 Telecommunications Law is quite good - the first Telecommunications Law in the United States dates back to 1934. The famous Federal Communications Commission was born. This year's new Telecommunications Law is the first US Telecommunications Act to significantly amend the 1934 Telecommunications Law in nearly 62 years, and its status is the second milestone in this field.

To put it in the shortest and straightforward summary, the effect that the 1996 version of the Telecommunications Law wants to achieve is: completely breaking the long-term monopoly in the three major areas of cable TV, long-distance and local speaking, and introducing a complete and full competition mechanism.

The following is the anti-d part, updated tomorrow, and ignore it directly.

...

It is estimated that David Ferro and Jerry Yang's bosses are so generous that they have the time to organize the indexes of these websites for other Internet users to use. They then step on the drum beats of the times by chance. With great popularity, the number of clicks will exceed 10,000.

Therefore, "Jerry's Internet Guide" was changed to the catchy "Yahoo", and in order to distinguish it from the registered trademark of existing products such as barbecue sauce and knives, an exclamation mark was added to the back, which became "yahoo!", but I forgot to spend 100 US dollars to register. I have to say that smart people often have secrets or when people are poor and have short ambitions.

It is not difficult to imagine that Yahoo now has no value in terms of technology, it is just a software "database" that can be customized and can update website index information at any time.

It is no exaggeration to say that Mr. Fu, who has too much capital, has no idea whether he looks down on or replaces it.

However, he still looked at the seedling quietly, growing with natural ecology and instinct. Because the valuable thing about Yahoo is that it inherently contains a new feasible operating model.

Although Mr. Fu has American Online, the American Online model cannot represent the entire Internet and the World Wide Web.

Although American Online is not as qualified as competitors in the online service field, it is definitely no problem to be older than Yahoo's previous generation. It stood out with the division of Arpa Network into military and civilian parts in 1983, TCP/IP began to become a general agreement.

Due to the lack of resources in the era of Internet pioneering, the operating model of such online services has tried to provide all Internet access content from the beginning, and rented network lines on a large scale, or even built their own network lines, becoming an Internet_service_provider - an Internet service provider isp.

Compared with the "hard" mode of American Online, which puts access users in circles, Yahoo represents a "soft" path, that is, because network resources have begun to explode information, it provides the navigation function of the portal website.

Yahoo's main job is to put up a server, maintain its own "website database", and provide an attractive navigation page that occupies access points for the Internet with countless websites without having to rent a line, and control access users in its own website.

To put it more generously or even more politically correct, Yahoo represents freedom and openness, and truly explains the spiritual essence of the Internet.

Of course, this does not mean that the American Online path is wrong, Yahoo's path is right - different stages of the Internet have led to different choices and operational characteristics of the road. If you copy it, it will only be a dead end.

Moreover, the front row of Yahoo’s website navigation directory is still the mainstream at this stage, so there must be its position.

Under Tang Huan's guidance, the degree to which the United States Online embraces the World Wide Web is many times faster than the competitors of online services, and its path has always been "correct".

But it is impossible to make American Online a more "correct" step and switch to a portal model. Not to mention that the portal model has just emerged, it is impossible to give up the existing content resources of American Online. The online service model has been "correct" to penetrate its genes, and it can only fine-tune its navigation direction with the development of the Internet.

In this case, the extremely new Yahoo is valued to Mr. Fu - it can not only satisfy the layout of not putting eggs in one basket, but also greatly reduce the cost of mastering the portal model.

As for the value of the two graduate students, David Ferro and Jerry Yang, it is similar to James Cameron who is dedicated to filming "Titanic" simply. This persistence in his bones is not easy to find.

You should know that by relying on the power of two people, you can do private work and organize the information of thousands of websites into an index service, but a physical work without enthusiasm will definitely not work.

Tang Huan opened the Yahoo page on his computer and couldn't help but smile—the server placed in David Ferro and Jerry Yang's apartment was probably overwhelmed and was about to go on strike.

Meng Jing, a little cousin who was sorting out information, saw Tang Huan's scheming and complacent expression, and rolled her eyes, "Brother, you have registered so many .com domain names, aren't you afraid that others will say they are bullying the small ones?"

"Silly girl, with these domain names, I know that Jim Clark, who left Silicon Valley Graphics, has invested $40,000 to establish a small startup company-the browser market. There are not many, but not many."

"You have repeatedly emphasized to us that competition on the Internet platform is free is a killer move." Meng Jing reminded: "Compared with po1estar as a commercial software and in the name of promotion, it is temporarily free. Now netsnetavigator - Netscape Navigator, once launched the official version of 1.o, it has positioned it as a shared software without hesitation, and it is really free. It is in full force and is not comparable to other competitors."

"Po1estar is leading in technology and has a leading market share. I am not afraid of Netsnetavigator's disruption at all." Tang Huan waved his hand with a relaxed expression. "Netsnetavigator wants to seize market share with free and clean methods. Then I can also use multiple sets of software products to package promotions and secretly subsidize subsidies to spend money to buy others to use Po1estar."

Meng Jing smiled: "Brother, you have to pay attention. Although Zheru Software was split out and reached an antitrust settlement with the Federal Ministry of Justice, there are still people watching."
