Chapter 386 PayPal Female Helmsman!

Since Microsoft released Windows95, Microsoft's stock price has skyrocketed.

By March, its market capitalization exceeded $3 billion.

All stockholders can't help but be overjoyed!
And according to the current situation, Microsoft's stock price is still a growth trend.

Among them, Cortana Microsoft Cortana contributed a lot.

As a result, artificial intelligence was fired very hotly for a while, and Wall Street suddenly set off a wave of investment in artificial intelligence!

Of course, it is only 1995 now, and the technical level of artificial intelligence is difficult to compare with that of 2016, so Cortana still has a lot of flaws, but users are very curious about him.

In the previous life, many people in the qq group had a great time playing the qq Xiaoice robot, but Cortana is much better than qq Xiaoice, and it belongs to the real artificial intelligence.

Cortana Microsoft Cortana is not a simple, scripted reply, but has a certain language recognition ability, which is much more fun than QQ Xiaobing.Sometimes even if it is not recognized or wrong, it can still make users laugh.

Although the level of artificial intelligence is limited, Microsoft has cleverly proposed the concept of "artificial intelligence development". The longer the training time of artificial intelligence, the higher its intelligence, which undoubtedly greatly increased Microsoft's User stickiness!
Microsoft has launched Cortana, and Apple is naturally not far behind.

More than a month later, on the morning of March 3, when Apple released a new generation of operating system, it launched the Siri artificial intelligence assistant.

That's right, the name Siri was named by Li Zetian again.This is the intelligent voice control software on iPhone smartphones and Macs in the previous life. Siri can turn iPhone4S and above mobile phones (iPad 3 and above tablets) into an intelligent robot. Using Siri users can read text messages, introduce restaurants, Ask about the weather, set alarms by voice, and more.

Uh... The name is so casual, of course not because Li Zetian is lazy, but because he is used to it, so Microsoft's artificial intelligence is directly called Cortana, and Apple's artificial intelligence is called Siri.

Apple's new system is called MacOS1995, which competes head-to-head with Microsoft's Windows95. Once it was released, it became very popular, and it couldn't help but regained Apple's market share again.Before, many Apple fans bought Windows 95 because Microsoft owns Cortana.

Apple is still not listed, otherwise, its market value may be higher than that of Microsoft.

Microsoft's products are mainly operating systems and software, while Apple also has many hardware products.Mobile phones, notebooks, desktop all-in-ones, CD-Walkman, etc. Apple is still developing MP3 players, even patents have been applied for, and prototypes have been developed. However, due to Li Zetian's high requirements, MP3 players are still being perfected. improving.

This time, both Microsoft and Apple have launched new systems and artificial intelligence, and the market share of personal operating systems has basically been divided by these two companies.There are still some operating system companies that are completely facing bankruptcy.

In addition, it is worth mentioning that global computers have been further popularized because of Windows95 and MacOS1995!

……

……

4 month 1 number.

PayPal Inc.

Originally, Li Zetian thought that PayPal would finish it before March, but then he still prepared for an extra month.

The first is to develop software. PayPal is a third-party payment software, and security is particularly important. This aspect must not be sloppy. If it is easily captured by hackers, PayPal may go bankrupt.

Secondly, it is not easy to cooperate with so many banks in the United States. PayPal is just a start-up company, and Li Zetian cannot announce that he is the boss of PayPal in order to keep a low profile. Therefore, when the employees of PayPal go to talk about cooperation, other banks are not a bird.In addition, the bank has its own online banking, why do you need this middleman?And let you take part of the profits?Therefore, it is not easy to discuss cooperation with banks.

Finally, we have to talk to the e-commerce website company. Fortunately, Li Zetian directly made the decision and ordered Amazon to use PayPal as the third-party payment software.

Everything is ready, and a press conference is held on this day!

The CEO of PayPal is none other than Li Zetian's sister Zhou Qiqi.

She was also about to graduate from Stanford University, and Li Zetian asked her to work at PayPal.

Zhou Qiqi has received higher education for many years, coupled with family influence, she has been very capable since she was a child.

Letting her be the CEO of PayPal is just a small test!

At the press conference, Zhou Qiqi wore a black professional attire, with a very outstanding white-collar temperament.

The reporters and guests present were all surprised when they saw that Zhou Qiqi was the CEO of PayPal.

20-year-old Chinese female CEOs are rare in Silicon Valley, and it might be normal if they were replaced by Americans.

"Hi everyone, welcome to the PayPal press conference. I am the CEO of PayPal. You may not know me well. Here, I will introduce myself first. My name is Zhou Qiqi. I studied in Hong Kong in middle school. One of the schools in Hong Kong - Pei Ching Middle School in Hong Kong. After graduating from high school, he was directly admitted to the computer department of Stanford University. He had worked in "Hong Kong Daily", Microsoft, Apple, Yahoo, Amazon. , Oracle and other [-] companies have practiced in different occupations, have very rich work experience, and currently serve as the CEO of PayPal."

As soon as the words fell, there was an uproar in the audience!

"Oh my god, it's unbelievable that such a young man has worked in so many top companies!!"

"Fuck, this woman is too awesome, isn't she bragging?"

"This resume is simply astonishing!"

"Worship, admire!!!"

"She's a top student and a strong woman, and she's so pretty! Fuck, I'm fucking speechless, God is so unfair!!"

Everyone was amazed.

The reporters were not very interested in PayPal at first, but now they are very curious when they hear the resume of the CEO.

This news can hit the headlines!

"The gifted girl has an amazing resume. She has practiced in 15 international companies at a young age, and she is currently the CEO of PayPal!" "

"Equal emphasis on talent and beauty, the shocking secret of a 20-year-old genius girl CEO! "

At this time, some people in the audience stared at Zhou Qiqi, frowning slightly.

"Hey, this woman looks so familiar..."

"The company where she worked as an intern before seems to be owned by Chronos Li!"

"Ah!!! I finally know who she is! Chronos Li's parents once adopted a goddaughter, yes, that's right, it's her—Zhou Qiqi!!!"

A middle-aged man looked ecstatic and couldn't help but yelled.

The people around were shocked when they heard this.

"Oh, she is Chronos Li's younger sister?"

"Damn, that's right! If she is Chronos Li's younger sister, then her resume will look normal. She can go to any company she wants to do an internship, and it must be no problem!"

"That's right, that's the only way to explain it! If it's just an ordinary person, how can there be such a genius and such a resume in the world? It's impossible! How can it be so easy to enter a Fortune [-] company?"

"Yeah, I think so too!"

For a while, Zhou Qiqi's identity was exposed, and all the guests in the audience knew about it.

However, Zhou Qiqi revealed this on purpose.

Right now, PayPal has been successfully developed, there is no need to keep a low profile, and a high profile is more conducive to the development of the company.

Li Zetian is also very supportive of disclosing the behind-the-scenes controller of PayPal.

PayPal is about money, credit is very important!
Different from online banking, PayPal is a third-party payment software, and users will be afraid that this software is a fraudulent software, while online banking has a guarantee from the bank!
However, if everyone knows that the boss behind PayPal is the richest man in the world sitting on trillions of dollars, and with his endorsement, everyone will not be afraid, thinking, Chronos Li is definitely impossible to do fraudulent things.

In addition, after the release of PayPal, even if other companies want to follow suit, it will take a long time to develop third-party payment software. By then, the day lily will be cold.

In the Internet field, the Matthew effect is very obvious, the strong get stronger and the weak get weaker.

At this time, a pillar of light suddenly lit up on the right side of the stage, and everyone couldn't help looking at it.Immediately, a man came over from there.

"It's Chronos Li!!!!" Someone screamed loudly!

"Oh, it's Chronos Li, he's actually here!"

"It looks like he's here to support his sister!"

"Hehe, interesting! It seems that PayPal is not simple!"

"..."

Li Zetian walked slowly to the middle of the stage, took a microphone from Zhou Qiqi, and then turned to look at the audience.

"Hi everyone, I'm Chronos Li."

Li Zetian smiled lightly, pointed to Zhou Qiqi, who was slim and handsome beside him, and introduced: "Hehe, I think many people in the audience have already guessed it. Yes, she is my sister Zhou Qiqi! Don't look at her young, she is amazing! I believe , she will definitely become a well-known entrepreneur in the business world in the United States and even in the world! Well, next, she will introduce PayPal to you..."

Zhou Qiqi nodded at Li Zetian, then organized her language, and said to everyone: "PayPal is a third-party international trade payment software. As we all know, when you shop online, most of the payment methods you choose are online banking. However, In terms of choosing online payment methods, PayPal has more advantages than online banking..."

Zhou Qiqi talked about the advantages of PayPal slowly, and the more people listened, the more they felt that PayPal was better than online banking.

Perfect security system, rich anti-fraud experience, the lowest risk loss rate in the industry, less than one-sixth of the traditional transaction method, to ensure the smooth progress of the transaction.

No registration fee, no annual fee, and the handling fee is only half of the traditional payment method.

The characteristics of instant payment and instant arrival, easy cash withdrawal, solve the problem of foreign trade collection, and help the successful development of overseas business.

……

Li Zetian looked at Zhou Qiqi who was in high spirits, and smiled lightly. Some people only need to give her a good platform, and she will become extraordinary. Zhou Qiqi is such a person.

"Ah, Elon Musk, I'm very sorry, PayPal is mine now. As for you, you seem to be still studying, but it's okay, I'll wait for you to graduate~~~" Li Zetian looked up at the white of PayPal in the distance Logo, he said to himself from the bottom of his heart.

Li Zetian couldn’t help thinking that Elon Musk would have a hard time making a fortune without PayPal. After all, it’s hard for a smart woman to make a living without rice. Without money and the first pot of gold, Elon Musk might not be able to create the glory of his previous life.

Li Zetian still admires Elon Musk.

This man is really awesome, and his entrepreneurial history is simply a legend. PayPal, spaceX, SolarCity, Tesla Motors Tesla, etc. are all created by him. He is determined to change the world. Many people say that he is simply the prototype in the movie "Iron Man".

Li Zetian thought to himself, Elon Musk's talent is amazing, then give him a fulcrum to see if he can lift the earth!
Unknowingly, PayPal's press conference ended quickly.

The next day, both Zhou Qiqi and PayPal made headlines in major media around the world!
"Big news, Chronos Li's younger sister made her debut, starting from a frighteningly high starting point, directly serving as the CEO of an Internet company!" "

"PayPal's shocking release intends to change the current payment method of the entire Internet e-commerce. The company is at the helm of Chronos·Li's younger sister Zhou Qiqi! "

"Chronos·Li's talented sister has an amazing resume. She is a computer science student at Stanford University. She has worked as an intern in 15 Fortune [-] companies and is now directly serving as the CEO of PayPal Internet Company!" "

As soon as the news came out, it quickly spread all over the world, causing shock, and countless people couldn't help talking about it.

Zhou Qiqi is like Ivanka ***. Because of Zhou Qiqi's outstanding looks and prominent status, countless people have become her fans.

"Oh, Zhou Qiqi is so beautiful, I like her so much!"

"Those slender and fair thighs are so sexy, and this figure is simply perfect!"

"Oh my god, I'm already fascinated by her! The most important thing is that she's still Chronos Li's younger sister, wow, if I marry her, I can save myself a lifetime of struggle!!"

"..."

The Chinese students at Stanford University were all surprised when they saw the news.

"I didn't expect such a low-key person to be Chronos Li's younger sister. If I knew about it, I would have chased her! Sigh..." a man said regretfully.

Another man said disdainfully: "It seems that you have never chased after me. Zhou Qiqi is so beautiful. Among the Chinese students, some men don't like her and have never launched an offensive against her, but they look down on us. .Now that I think about it, it really is true that the status is too disparate~~"

Li Zetian was speechless after reading the newspaper and online comments.

Obviously, the media has lost the rhythm. The focus of the PayPal press conference is to promote PayPal, but people pay attention to Zhou Qiqi.

Alas, putting the cart before the horse!
Fortunately, PayPal has caused a huge sensation and repercussions in the industry. Many e-commerce websites have sought cooperation with PayPal, especially some small and start-up companies. They do not have the strength to negotiate cooperation with hundreds of banks.Now, they only need to cooperate with PayPal, and the business of dealing with the bank is directly handed over to PayPal, saving worry and effort!
Coupled with the support of Amazon.com, the trend of PayPal's unified third-party payment has become obvious.
