Back To 1995 Chapter 694

   Chapter 694 Famous Scene

When Jobs arrived, he met a lot of acquaintances. He used to be a family with Apple, but was sold by Jobs to Song Yang's ARM president Saxby, PA Semiconductor's Wolongfengcha Dopopper, Jim Keller, and his relationship with Jobs. Close Sierra President Williams and his wife.

   In addition, there are 3M Company, Knowles Electronics, Micron Technology, ON Semiconductor and other major suppliers of the American electronics industry, and Apple is also using components supplied by these companies.

   Let Jobs, somewhat unexpectedly, even see the figure of Palmer, the president of DEC, and he and Dobble, the president of PA Semiconductor, seem to have a heated discussion about something.

   "Steve!"

The Williams couple came over and hugged Steve Jobs. They have been friends for decades. At the beginning, the Williams couple had also developed games for Apple Computer. It was considered that for so many years, they were very few with Larry Ellison Several, rare people who did not turn against Jobs.

   "Ken, Roberta!"

   Seeing the two acquaintances, Jobs also had a smile on his face. He could endure Jobs's character and temper. For those who have maintained a good relationship for so many years, Jobs couldn't help but be a little warmer.

   When Steve Jobs returned to Apple and was on the verge of collapse, the Williams couple also helped, introducing a white knight to Apple, letting Song Yang invest in Apple, buying stocks and bonds, saving Apple's life!

   It is true that Song Yang has also taken a lot of things from Apple. ARM chip company has made PA Semiconductor and Panda TV as Apple's component suppliers, and Fortis Antivirus, ICQ, and PayPal have become official software partners of Apple's system.

These conditions, for the domineering and paranoid Steve Jobs, are all alliances under the city, but in the original situation of Apple, they are willing to help Apple, but there is really no second one, they are all waiting to see a good show, William For Mr. and Mrs. Song, to be able to pull Song Yang over to invest is a life saver for Jobs!

   There was a lot of noise at the conference center, especially the Alcatel mobile phone supply chain manufacturers, retail distributors, and Symbian system software developers, who were the most excited.

Just like every time the fruit machine of later generations is released, it is a carnival. After the last P1 was released, the supply chain manufacturers that provided parts and components for the P1 took off in place, and the stock prices skyrocketed. Alcatel mobile phone concept stocks turned out. born.

The stock prices of listed companies related to this concept stock have doubled. Parts suppliers, mobile phone retail channels, and even scalpers have all made a lot of money. This time, Alcatel P2 mobile phone is released, so these companies naturally It is the most active, and they all hope that, relying on P2 mobile phones, they can make a lot of money.

   In addition to the many companies and personnel who were invited, there was another person who seemed to be out of touch with the scene, but was a little special and was invited to sit in the front row.

Using P2P sharing technology, website users have advanced by leaps and bounds. The Scour website, which has exceeded 10 million users, has made America's music, movies, books and other Internet resources flooded online, and Hollywood giants have been beaten. of dizziness.

  Before Hollywood, I didn't even care about Internet companies. As for the cooperation proposed by Scour website, it was thrown into the trash can, but this time, it was messed up by Scour's news.

In the latest quarter, the revenue of major Hollywood record groups and movie giants generally fell. This is the first time this has happened since the 1980s. After all, there are cheaper and almost free Internet music and movies on the Internet. Resources, who is willing to spend more money to buy records, movie CDs and the like.

  Scour also felt that they had released a beast, and the flood of resources on the Internet was beyond their imagination.

If the website is closed, then the venture capital company and the investors will be in vain, and the tens of millions of users that they have managed to attract will all be lost. If the website is not closed, they may have to fight a lawsuit with Hollywood. In this lawsuit, they You must lose, and you may face huge fines.

Kalanick, the founder of   Scour, was in a dilemma. At this time, he received an invitation to launch the Alcatel P2 mobile phone.

   Kalanick, who was sitting in the front row of the convention center, was a little restless. He was from Los Angeles, and he knew every single one of the Silicon Valley bigwigs present, but he sat in the front row today.

Looking at Steve Jobs, the Williams couple, PA Semiconductor President Dobble, ICQ Chief Technology Officer Wesley and other big names not far away, Kalanick could only show a stiff smile, he really didn't know, Why does he sit in the first row.

   Sitting next to Kalanick, who was also invited to participate in this kind of conference for the first time, William Schedler, president of the Diamond Alliance, stretched out his hand to Kalanick, "Schedler!"

   "Kalanick!"

   Kalanick absentmindedly shook hands with William Sheidler, never thinking how deeply the two would be involved in the future.

  William Schedler would not have thought that the appearance of "noble people" is often in such a moment, how much the Dimeng can earn in the future, but it depends on the "noble people" to help.

  Kalanick and William Schedler had a chat with each other, one was from the Internet and Hollywood, and the other was from the electronic circle.

   However, when he heard that the Scour website established by Kalanick is a website that provides downloads of music, movies, etc., William Schedler couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

   "Scour, the website that provides online video and music resources?" William Schedler couldn't help asking.

   "That's a file shared between users. It has nothing to do with the Scour website. Technology is innocent!"

Kalanick explained it again, he is a supporter of the supremacy of technology, just like the man with the most kind in the country, who developed the "chopper theory" shouted out by the man who is on the air Good or bad, the difference only depends on what the person using it is doing.

Kalanick and the father of Kuaiwan share the same theory. They insist on the Scour website. They only provide users with P2P technology. Users "share" with each other. What is the relationship between the resources uploaded to the Internet and Scour? The behavior between users, and the Scour website cannot interfere, how can the innocent villains be innocent? !

Looking at Kalanick who was trying his best to explain this theory to him, William Schedler nodded his head in agreement, and didn't hear a word. William Schedler only knew that Kalanick was in front of him. The courage is really big, Hollywood dares to smash the wool!

   Seeing William Schedler's expression, Kalanick knew that he was wasting his efforts, and he was too lazy to defend himself.

William Schedler looked at Kalanick from time to time, but he was hesitant to say anything. His Dimeng was now working with Alcatel Mobile to develop a new type of music player, MP3, which will be launched soon. sale.

  If William Schedler guessed correctly, then this MP3, which is provided with technology and funds from Alcatel Mobile, and is sold under the brand of Dimeng, is the channel for users to download music. It is estimated that it will be the Scour website.

Similarly, using Kalanick's theory just now, what website does the user of Dimeng MP3 download from, and whether the downloaded music is genuine or pirated, has nothing to do with Dimeng, after all, it is a MP3 seller, which is equivalent to only selling it. A kitchen knife, whether the user uses the kitchen knife to cut vegetables or chop meat, how can Dimeng control it?

  Looking back, seeing the organizer and arranging him and Kalanick to sit together, William Schedler felt even more weird, always having the feeling that the Alcatel phone was doing something.

   "Kalanick, no matter what, the Dimeng will thank you and...will always support you!"

  William Schedler vaguely thanked the "dignity" solemnly, which made Kalanick bewildered, wondering what kind of honey juice William Schedler was doing.

   "President Palmer!"

   Beside Dobble, the dispute with DEC President Palmer became more and more fierce. Dobble's voice even attracted the attention of Jobs, who was talking with the Williams couple.

  Like Apple, it used to be at the height of its power, punching IBM and kicking Intel, and DEC, which was playing quite smoothly in both computers and semiconductors, has entered a recession period after struggling for several years. I heard that it is now looking for the acquisition of gold owners.

  Palmer and Dobble are from the same school, both of them are from the DEC semiconductor department, Dobopool is famous, much bigger than Palmer.

After Olson, the old gang leader of DEC, was finally out of control and was forced to give up the head of DEC, Palmer took over DEC. At that time, Dobble had left DEC and established PA Semiconductor. If If he doesn't leave, then the position of the head of DEC today is Palmer.

   "DEC's semiconductors must not be sold to Intel!"

  Dobble suppressed his anger and said to Palmer, on this occasion today, Palmer suddenly came to the door and told Dobble a thunderbolt news that DEC couldn't hold on and was going to sell himself!

Palmer came here today because he wanted to add PA Semiconductor to the list of DEC acquirers. PA Semiconductor is not very good, but its big sponsor is Song Yang, who just completed a sum of tens of billions of dollars. The merger of the US knife, such a big money master, DEC is also very jealous.

In the list of gold owners who are also DEC, in addition to PA Semiconductor, there are also Intel, IBM, SUN, Compaq, HP and other lists. What makes Dobble angry is Intel, and DEC is fighting with Intel. Decades later, when he gets old, he sells himself to his nemesis. Even if Dobble has left DEC, he can't bear it. In that case, it means that he has been feeding dogs for most of his life.

   "This matter is not something I can decide. I can only pull PA Semiconductor into the acquirer!" Palmer said helplessly.

   Dobble was still arguing with Palmer, and there was a commotion in the venue, but Song Yang, Ertian, the president of Alcatel Mobile, Hobloo, the head of the Saipan system, and others had already arrived at the venue.
