Top of the Great Era

I was running out of time, so I didn't watch it on the last day. Anyway, the best part of "The Peony Pavilion" is the middle and front part, and the last court scene is a bit childish.It is still a happy ending, and the artistry will be greatly reduced.

It doesn't matter if you don't look at it.

Zhou Buqi led a group of people back from the east coast to the west coast.I met Microsoft CEO Ballmer again, and the two parties quickly reached an agreement, confirming that Microsoft will acquire Yammer, and that Microsoft will acquire UC Group next.

Ballmer also made a request, hoping to include Ucgram in the UC group.

This was rejected by Zhou Buqi.

Ballmer decided to settle for the next best thing, saying that Ucgram could cooperate with UC Group in brand marketing.After all, Microsoft is a world giant, and its focus is on the global market.

From a global perspective, the most well-known UC brand is of course the photo social product Ucgram.

Zhou Buqi didn't dare to make a blind decision.

The last time he wanted to change the name of Ucgram, he was attacked by Lu Qi and Tang Binchen jointly. He had to ask them about this matter, and handed over the decision-making power to Tang Binchen.

Fortunately, UC Group's plan is already underway.

Zhou Buqi sent back news to China, suggesting that Zhang Yiming, He Yang, Nie Caijun, Yu Yongfu and others go to Seattle and talk to Microsoft.

UC Group cannot be sold to Microsoft as a whole.

Baidu also needs some products.

There must be a certain split in the business.

Then, he accepted Larry Page's request to experience Google's high-tech... Authorities have approved Google's self-driving cars to be tested on specific roads in specific regions.

One of the most important reasons why Zhou Buqi agreed was Tesla.

Tesla is not at this level now.

Speaking of technology, Google is even stronger!

In the applause of many Google technicians, Zhou Buqi and Larry Page got into an unmanned white and green car and sat down face to face.

The car doesn't even have a steering wheel.

AI driving, started an "adventure" journey.

It's actually quite safe.

Not even a ghost on the road.

The entire road is occupied by Google, and a few obstacles are symbolically placed on the road. The car automatically bypasses these obstacles, changes lanes, turns on the turn signal, accelerates, brakes, and turns around... full of sense of technology.

Then, with even greater applause, the car returned to its original point.

After getting out of the car, Larry Page smiled and asked, "How is it?"

Zhou Buqi nodded, "Very good."

Larry Page said with emotion: "The future is the era of AI."

Zhou Buqi pointed to the test car, "Is Google building a car?"

"Ah?" Larry Page shook his head and laughed, "Of course not, autopilot is a system."

Zhou Buqi smiled, "Like the Android that dominates the smartphone market?"

"Correct!"

Larry Page doesn't need to hide either.

There are some things that require extraordinary skills to be successful.

As the trend of the AI ​​era becomes more and more obvious, the automatic driving of automobiles will definitely be the core product of the next automobile era.What Google has to do is to develop a self-driving system that can be installed on all cars.

Just like the Android system that dominates smartphones.

Zhou Buqi actually didn't quite understand it.

At least according to his temporary judgment, the Android idea may not work well in the automotive field, and it has to be an Apple idea to make a relatively closed product.

The threshold for making mobile phones is very low.

Any company that is similar can produce mobile phones, with only a few thousand parts in total, and the assembly is not complicated.But the car is not good. This is hundreds of thousands of parts, and the threshold is too high.

More importantly, mobile phones have relatively low security risks.

The quality is poor, and bugs often occur, so just bear with it.

Cars will not work, which is related to life safety.

Compared with the Android phone, the stability of the iPhone is obviously stronger. In fact, the software and hardware must be integrated, the software is designed for the hardware, and the hardware is designed for the software to have better reliability.

Google's choice, I don't know how many technology companies will have to imitate it, and then embark on a road of no return to develop an autonomous driving system...

Zhou Buqi likes to deal with technology companies such as Google, Microsoft, Netflix, Ali, and Baidu, learn their strengths, and then be alert to their weaknesses.

However, some companies do not.

Such as EA.

I heard that Boss Zhou is in the United States, and the current CEO of EA, John Richtillo, is here again and has made appointments several times.

Zhou Buqi met him at Ziweixing International's headquarters.

When he came, Zhou Buqi was talking to Lao Zhang.

"Fuck! Where are you?"

"I'm in Silicon Valley!"

"Aren't you in New York?"

Zhang Chaoyang was so angry that his teeth were itchy, he was called to New York by this bastard kid, he passed, but this kid disappeared.

Zhou Buqi sighed and said, "I'm busy. It's okay. "The Peony Pavilion of Youth" has two shows on Broadway. The first show is over, and there is a second show."

Zhang Chaoyang said: "You really can!"

Zhou Buqi smiled and said, "Don't blame me, Boss Ma asked me to come and wait for him. He is coming to America."

Zhang Chaoyang said angrily: "What is your bottom line for the acquisition of take-two?"

Zhou Buqi said: "There is no bottom line."

"Ok?"

Zhang Chaoyang was slightly taken aback.

Zhou Buqi said: "The acquisition must be completed. This is the company's strategy. How much the premium should be is up to you. Anyway, I agree."

Zhang Chaoyang snorted coldly: "There is a lot of room for manipulation."

Zhou Buqi said nonchalantly: "It's okay, if you want to enrich yourself in it, then go for it, the rich water won't flow to outsiders' fields."

Zhang Chaoyang was weak, feeling that he really couldn't handle this kid, so he said helplessly: "Okay, I know, I will find a few people to help with the operation, it may take a few months."

Zhou Buqi laughed and said, "It won't take that long, they are in a hurry than us!"

Here he talked with Lao Zhang on the phone, and then went to the living room, and met the CEO of EA... The specific reason has been guessed, Lucasfilm has officially made a statement to EA, and will not Licensed the copyright of "Star Wars" to them.

Announcement.

EA's stock price crashed again.

Zhou Buqi thought that he came here this time to beg hard, but he didn't expect that the other party was so aggressive that he didn't even mention the copyright of "Star Wars".

John Richtillo said in a deep voice: "Mr. Zhou, do you really want to compete with EA for the FIFA trademark?"

Zhou Buqi said indifferently: "It's not me, it's Changyou."

"Mr. Zhou, are you sure you really want to do this?"

"Any questions?"

"If this is the case, then EA and Changyou will really become sworn enemies!"

There was a hint of threat in John Richtillo's tone.

Zhou Buqi couldn't help laughing.

Mortal enemy?

It was originally a sworn enemy.

EA and take-two are mortal enemies. Now that Zhang is on the move, Changyou will soon be able to complete the acquisition of take-two... This has nothing to do with whether Changyou will compete for the "FIFA" trademark.

John Richtillo said: "Mr. Zhou, I can tell you the truth. Those rumors in the market are all false. The board of directors has never thought of letting me leave."

Zhou Buqi laughed and said, "Sorry, I haven't paid attention to it."

John Richtillo said: "I just want to remind you, I am determined to win the 'FIFA' trademark, and EA will get it no matter what! If the bidding starts, EA will accompany it to the end! At that time, not only will Changyou not get it copyright, and lose a friend like EA."

"That's not necessarily the case." Zhou Buqi was unmoved, "Then let's compete. Although EA and FIFA have cooperated for 20 years, I believe FIFA will deal with it fairly."

"Wait and see!"

The old guy got up and left.

This surprised Zhou Buqi.

What's the situation?

Did this guy take gunpowder?Still want to jump over the wall in a hurry?

Come here, why not talk about business, just to threaten my boss?

Depend on!
I was terrified!
