Chapter 394 Do you want to be our enemy or our friend?
Xiao Lijuan shook her head, she was a little confused.
"Eagle seems to have always been quite technologically advanced."
"A lot of advanced technology breakthroughs come from them, right?"
"It seems that, as you said before, you said that computers and the Internet seemed to have originated from them."
Wang Haoran nodded and said, "You are right. They have indeed achieved many breakthroughs in science and technology in the past."
"They have made outstanding contributions in the era of electrification, and a group of outstanding scientific and technological talents have emerged."
"Most of their talents are immigrants from outside."
“They have formulated many policies to attract talents.”
"Many outstanding talents left Laoou and went to Juying to start their own businesses, and they are doing well."
"In the 19th century, the ascending channel at the Giant Eagle did exist."
“There are indeed geniuses from ordinary families who become elites through personal efforts.”
"But their class solidification is also coming quite quickly."
"By the beginning of the 20th century, the door to social mobility had been basically welded shut."
"If common people want to work hard to get into the upper class, there are only a few ways left: talented people in sports and arts may be able to get into the top. But for the likes of science and technology elites, there is basically no chance. At most, the science and technology elites are used by the rich. Even if they set up a company, it is basically difficult to escape the fate of being acquired or taken away."
"They have basically become financial chaebols now."
"The result of financialization is that they only focus on making money."
"They have no interest in industry or anything like that."
“They love to tell stories and do stunts.”
"They come up with an idea every day in order to attract investors' attention and quickly raise money after getting investment."
"This kind of quick-success behavior will not produce great results."
"The more anxious they are, the harder it will be to produce results."
"When they are ahead in technology, they can still do it with ease. When they are behind, they cannot organize the power to break through."
Wang Haoran analyzed the current situation of the Giant Eagle.
Xiao Lijuan nodded repeatedly and said, "Now that you put it that way, I understand."
"That is to say, under the control of the financial tycoons, they have lost their enthusiasm for scientific research."
Wang Haoran nodded and said, "That's right."
"Their scientific research is all driven by profit. Their goal is to make a lot of money."
"When their elites analyzed and found that it would take a huge amount of energy and money to do it themselves, and that they would definitely not be able to find a market after they came up with it, and would not be able to compete with their competitors, they became discouraged."
“They are really different from us!”
"We have a lot of energy. Even if we lag behind, the country will continue to invest, organize a large breakthrough team, formulate effective plans, and realize them through hard work."
"This is the main reason why I say that they are now far behind us and it is impossible for them to break through on their own."
Xiao Lijuan smiled and said, "That means they will definitely come back to beg us?"
Wang Haoran nodded: "I firmly believe this."
"Time is on our side. We really don't need to rush."
"No matter how hard they struggle, I firmly believe that we will be the winner in the end."
However, after Hydson suffered a setback, he had no choice but to ask the Eagle King for instructions.
After listening to Hydeson's report, the Eagle King shook his head in frustration and said, "They played a trick on me."
"They are taking this opportunity to threaten us."
Hydeson said, "Your Majesty, what do you think we should do?"
"The other side obviously has us in their grasp."
"They don't care about rules or contracts at all."
The Eagle King said, "I think we should hold another meeting to see what the big guys' attitudes are."
"Anyway, I've really had enough."
"I'd rather not have a net than be held hostage by a dragon."
King Eagle went to seek the opinions of the chaebol bosses.
Financial tycoons are all anxious at the moment.
With the advent of the Internet, the financial industry has indeed become much more convenient.
Because the Internet has solved the major problem of joint reconciliation and settlement in the financial industry.
It makes the transfer of wealth much faster.
This also makes it easier for the Giant Eagle to reap profits from all over the world.
In the past, if you were doing trade or something, even if you didn't have to carry huge amounts of cash back and forth, you still needed to issue a bill of exchange or something like that.
But that kind of thing is easy to forge and cause fraud, and it is also very troublesome to settle accounts.
This is also the main reason why the banking industry could not achieve universal deposit and withdrawal in the era without the Internet.
The Internet is extremely important to the financial industry.
This is also the main reason why it is difficult for financial tycoons to go from extravagance to frugality.
Having no internet or the network being paralyzed is a terrible thing for them.
They need a global network. At the very least, you should have an internet connection in your country, right?
If the entire network collapses at once, it will cause chaos in the financial industry.
So, the financial tycoons are very uncomfortable.
The Eagle King really needs to communicate with these financial giants.
Some people said, logically speaking, aren’t the networks of financial institutions all independent intranets?
Even if the big network crashes.
Will their intranet also crash?
In fact, the intranet is also part of the big network.
The so-called independent intranet does not exist. Their network system is isolated from the main network by a firewall, and you cannot enter without a key.
Giant Eagle's entire Internet uses Giant Dragon's technical equipment.
In any case, they need support from root servers.
It’s just that the Eagle King is too arrogant.
They thought that since their own domestic Internet had been secured, it would not be a big deal if they took the initiative to cut off the Internet cable with the dragon.
However, what made them collapse was that completely disconnecting from the dragon's Internet connection would really cause problems.
Without the support of root servers, their network would collapse due to the disorder of IP addresses, etc.
This kind of crash cannot be repaired without the help of Pangu Technology technicians and if the root server cannot be connected.
The result of Eagle King's communication with financial giants is that the giants believe that it is not feasible to disconnect from the world's Internet!
Because the financial industry needs to serve the world and make profits from the world.
When you disconnect from the Internet, you are also disconnecting from all opportunities to make money from all over the world.
This means that Giant Eagle’s capital will lose the opportunity to make money.
In short, it is absolutely wrong to blame Eagle King for disconnecting from the world's Internet this time.
The big boss has spoken, what can Eagle King do?
Of course the Eagle King had to execute it.
So, Hydeson took the Eagle King's instructions and contacted Pangu Technology again.
This time he called at around 9 o'clock in the evening.
The call was connected, and it was the same girl who answered the phone.
"Hello, Mr. Hydeson!"
"I knew you would call me soon."
The little girl's laughter was full of confidence.
Hydeson said gloomily, "Are you sure that I will admit defeat?"
The little girl smiled and said, "Do you have any other choice?"
"Your boss behind the scenes will definitely urge you to get the Internet repaired as soon as possible."
Hydeson was a little surprised: "The boss behind the scenes?"
"It seems that you know a lot."
"Why do you think we have a boss behind the scenes?" "My boss is the Eagle King. The Eagle King is the number one of the Giant Eagles."
"How come he has a boss behind the scenes?"
The girl smiled and said, “Generally speaking, those who stand in the foreground are just puppets.”
"Your Giant Eagle has long been a nation of plutocracy."
"You didn't expect what the consequences would be when you cut off your connection with the entire world's Internet this time, did you?"
Hyderson sighed: "You know us well."
"I'm really a little surprised. You sound young, but you can actually speak to me on behalf of Mr. Wang."
“It’s a little weird to me.”
"Who are you?"
The little girl smiled and said, "I'm just an ordinary staff member."
"I'm not speaking to you on behalf of Mr. Wang. I'm speaking on behalf of Pangu Technology."
"Well! Are you going to give in after calling me this time?"
"Do you want to fully agree to the conditions we proposed?"
Hydeson said in a muffled voice: "I can basically agree with that."
"So, we can meet and negotiate, right?"
The little girl said, “Of course.”
"Mr. Hydeson, we welcome you to come and discuss cooperation."
Only then was Hydeson allowed to go to Pangu Technology for negotiations.
He finally met Wang Haoran.
After he saw Wang Haoran, he held Wang Haoran's hand and said, "Mr. Wang, it's really not easy to meet you!"
Wang Haoran smiled and said, "In fact, our door has always been open."
"However, we welcome friendly friends."
"Mr. Hydson, I wonder if you giant eagles are willing to be our friends or enemies?"
Wang Haoran’s words are very meaningful.
Hydeson quickly smiled and said, "Of course we are willing to be your friends."
"We are willing to be your friends forever."
Wang Haoran smiled and said, "You have said similar things many times."
“This is also the main reason why you lost your credibility.”
"You are trying to deceive by saying one thing."
"But his actions are another matter. His words and deeds are inconsistent with his heart!"
"Generally speaking, we put people like you on the watch list."
"Once we find out, you will be beyond redemption."
"Then, we will completely block them immediately!"
"So, this opportunity is very important to you. I hope you won't jump back and forth."
Wang Haoran's teaching of Hydeson was no different from teaching of a child.
Hyderson smiled and said, "I swear, we will definitely be reliable in the future."
"We have no chance of catching up with you."
Wang Haoran said calmly: "Are you trying to paralyze me?"
"As for you, let's look at what you say and what you do."
The subsequent negotiations went smoothly.
Hydson agreed to everything, whether it was possible or not.
The price Wang Haoran proposed for repairing the network was also quite high, requiring 50 billion RMB.
Yes, it’s RMB, not green paper.
Hydeson also agreed with a pinch of his nose.
Because, now that the Internet is disconnected, the economic losses are in the tens of billions every day. Of course, this is green paper.
Although 50 billion RMB is painful, it is still acceptable.
The Giant Eagle had disconnected the connecting optical cable, but fortunately it had not been completely destroyed, so this made the repair work much simpler.
Engineers from Pangu Technology took a special plane to participate in the maintenance.
Subsequently, two more cargo planes delivered the spare parts.
All in all, the repair work took about two weeks, and Giant Eagle’s internet was finally restored.
The paralyzed Internet was restored and the entire Giant Eagle was filled with jubilation.
Because the people and people from all walks of life in Eagle Country have become accustomed to life with the Internet.
Without the Internet, life has become a little too inconvenient.
CNN reporter Colt and a group of bloggers were the happiest.
Because Weibo, which they used to make money on, is back.
Moreover, this time it seems to be more smooth and the functions seem to have been upgraded.
Even after upgrading, you can post short videos in your blog.
This upgrade is awesome.
This allows a lot of breaking news to be presented more vividly.
Anyone who uses Weibo can take videos with a digital camera and then upload them to Weibo.
Colt and his wife logged back into their account and found that even though they hadn't logged in or posted any new blog posts for nearly a month, they still had money! And it wasn't a small amount, more than $20,000.
This money is mainly earned in other areas.
Colt was touched.
Julong’s company is really honest!
Think about the capitalists on the Giant Eagle side. They give you a little money, but still make all kinds of demands, and even monitor and persecute you in every way.
The return of software such as Weibo has had a huge impact on Giant Eagle's own Internet software.
In the few days before Weibo was completely cut off, Twitter's users did surge.
However, the user experience is not very good.
When Weibo returned, the number of users of software such as Twitter dropped sharply.
The original maximum daily active users could reach more than 3 million.
But now, there are only one or two million daily active users.
The Eagle King was very depressed.
Originally, after he cut off Weibo and other Julong software, he did have some peace and quiet for a few days.
However, before he could be too happy, the network was completely paralyzed.
Under pressure from financial giants, he had to beg for help from everyone in order to restore the Internet. With the help of Pangu Technology, the Internet was finally restored.
But looking at the comments on Weibo, he seems to have a stomachache!
Damn it, public opinion has collapsed again.
He wanted to set the pace again and discredit opponents like Julong, but it was extremely difficult.
Because the truth is on Weibo!
In order to make his country's software more competitive and attract more users, Eagle King invested heavily and allocated 20 billion yuan specifically for attracting traffic to his country's software.
What kind of registration can be used to participate in the lucky draw? Reading tweets for 10 minutes every day can earn you $5 green paper...
The rewards for bloggers have also increased significantly. Ten thousand reads can get a reward of 30 dollars...
Anyway, all kinds of marketing methods are used.
The goal is to make domestic software mainstream.
However, he was frustrated that no matter how hard he tried, he could not attract more active users for his country's software.
The software that Giant Eagle can control itself has been lukewarm from beginning to end.
Just when Giant Eagle was annoyed by the fact that Internet public opinion could not be independent, Pangu Technology had already begun mass-producing and launching smart phones, and all the commonly used software was installed on the phones from the beginning... (End of this chapter)
