wild 1995

Chapter 110 Arrangement
Di Ye was very unfamiliar with the name Thomas Reardon, he had no relevant information in his memory, and he didn't know what level he was in Microsoft, so he replied politely, and then looked at other emails.

In the software industry in the 90s, there was an unwritten rule, that is, famous people in the industry need not mention their full names, but only need to use 3 capital letters to refer to them, such as the DMR of Dennis Rich, the father of the C language, and the free software Movement leader Richard Stallman's RMS.

With the popularity of the WebP image format and the spread of the concept of open source, Di Ye's screen name LRF has a similar effect. As he becomes more famous, it becomes easier to make friends. He now has hundreds of email friends, both in the computer industry There are also heavyweights in the media, as well as media reporters and celebrities in other industries.

Of course, that includes the inventor of the World Wide Web, W3C Chairman Tim Berners-Lee.

Although W3C does things very well, it can’t do without W3C, otherwise browser manufacturers would be in trouble, so after Di Ye worked out the CSS 1.0 document, he not only sent it to the Dutchman Bert Boss, but also sent it to Berners-Lee I sent an email, referring to the development history of CSS, and listed various defects in 1.0. I hope he can take charge of the overall situation and set up a special working group to make CSS more perfect.

CSS is a super giant hole. Since version 2001 in 3.0, it has been updated endlessly. Di Ye only intends to use it to build a wave of reputation, get the foundation right, and then let it go, so I never thought about it from the beginning Instead of monopolizing the invention right of this technology, it adopts the strategy of sitting in rows and dividing the fruit into a "crystallization of collective wisdom" with equal benefits. This not only saves worry and effort, but also facilitates the rapid promotion of standards.

Berners-Lee was very interested in CSS and replied to a very long email. In addition to discussing technical issues, he also notified Di Ye to let him speak on the last day of the World Wide Web Conference in Germany as the grand finale.

Originally, with Di Ye's qualifications, it was impossible to be the finale, but he has the Athlon browser. The market share of Athlon is far lower than that of Netscape, but the open source and free features are very popular in the academic world, which is very suitable for CSS The experimental platform, theories and tools are complete, and the right to speak is naturally different.

There are more friends and more emails. Di Ye stayed in the office for more than an hour and replied to dozens of emails before ending the Internet, turning off the modem, and plugging the phone line back to the landline. Seeing this, Liu Shaosong said : "You are really extravagant. You actually reply to emails online. I always download the emails, and then send them online after writing the reply. It takes no more than 10 minutes before and after."

"It's only a few dozen dollars. I had to look up some information when I replied to the email just now. I'm too lazy to dial again and again to reconnect. It's too troublesome."

"Dozens of dollars is not enough? An ordinary family only pays so much for food for two days. If Dean Fei sees it, he will definitely call you a prodigal again."

Di Ye has indeed been a bit extravagant in spending money recently. Hearing this, he laughed, turned off the computer, and asked, "President Fei is on a business trip to the capital, when will he be back?"

"Come back the day after tomorrow, do you have something to do with him?"

"It's okay, I just want to ask him, last time I said that I want to build an official website of Yunda, did the school agree?"

Liu Shaosong was reading a paper on databases, and raised his head when he heard the words, and said, "The school did not agree, Yuncheng's internet speed is too slow, and the fees are expensive, and there are too few domestic netizens, and few people abroad know about Yunda. It doesn’t make sense to have an official website.”

Di Ye originally wanted to help Yunda achieve the achievement of "the first official university website in China", but this kind of gimmick is of little significance, and he did not insist on hearing the words, and said: "Forget it, I will help my sister organize the Yuncheng government official website."

"Has the city government approved the establishment of an official website?"

"It was approved the day before yesterday, but the budget is only 10, which belongs to mosquito legs."

"10 is not bad, just make a few web pages."

"Ms. Liu, rare things are valuable. Few people in China know how to make web pages."

After Di Yan became the director of the Data Communication Bureau, she spent hundreds of thousands of dollars to open the Internet access service. If there is no practical application, she will definitely be criticized, so as early as more than a month ago, Di Ye designed a brush for her. Achievement project - build a Chinese-English bilingual official website for the Yuncheng government.

After the website was built, Di Ye remotely controlled the C-Cube and the investment company came to Yuncheng for investigation, and after the acquisition of Radio 3 Factory, he publicized that he found business opportunities through the official website. Political achievements can also stimulate cloud university students to start their own businesses, because there is a huge profit margin.

When Ma Jun founded China Yellow Pages in April 1995, he couldn’t find anyone who could make a website in China, so he had to ask a foreigner to do it. The fee was 4 yuan for 3000 words plus a photo, of which 2 was given to the foreigner.

Now, after Di Ye’s training, even browsers and web servers have been developed. Building a website is no problem at all. For simple web pages like China’s Yellow Pages, anyone in the R&D team can make a lot of them in one day. , it is hard not to be tempted in the face of such high profits.

As long as Yuncheng's official website is set as a model for attracting investment, bureaucrats in other cities will surely follow suit. At that time, Di Ye only needs to provide financial support to foster a group of start-up companies and lay the foundation for Yuncheng's Internet industry.

The so-called high-rises rise from the ground. These start-up companies seem to have no technical content, but it does not mean that they have no future. After all, Yahoo was just a navigation website with manual links in 1995.

After chatting with Liu Shaosong in the office for a while, Di Ye received a call from Xia Fangfei, so he left and went to meet her at the rented room outside the north gate of Yunda. Heard the expected news.

"Mandarin Oriental Hotel contacted me through Olivia from Peregrine, and wanted to ask me to give up the Mandarin Suite from April 4st to 21rd. Does it mean that Diana will come to Hong Kong in these few days?"

"It should be. Arranging the itinerary two weeks in advance is in line with her habit."

After Di Ye became a shareholder of C-Cube, he transferred most of the funds from Peregrine, leaving only more than 200 million US dollars, but it was still a VIP customer. Liang Botao attached great importance to him, and specially arranged for a customer named Olivia Manager, providing 24-hour convenient service.

The Mandarin Suite is the top guest room of the Mandarin Oriental Hotel, with an area of ​​about 360 square meters, equipped with a living room, kitchen and dining room that can accommodate 12 guests. As Diana, she will definitely live here when she comes to Hong Kong.

So when Di Ye left Hong Kong in mid-March, he used the information in his memory to let Xia Fangfei book the Mandarin Suite from April 3th to 4th, so as to create an opportunity to get in touch with Diana.

"Diana stayed at Mandarin Oriental on April 4, so the flight must be on April 21. Does she not have a special plane?"

"No, she and Charles separated in 1992 and are now on the fringes of the royal family and will definitely fly first class on regular flights."

"You will have a meeting in Germany from April 4th to 12th. After the meeting, we will go to London, and then take the same flight back to Hong Kong with her, so we can strike up a conversation, how about it?"

"There should be more than one flight from London to Hong Kong, right?"

Xia Fangfei learned a lot of social engineering skills from Di Ye. During her stay at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel, she deliberately made friends with a few internal employees, and analyzed: "I asked Olivia to ask Sister Qian, and she said that at the latest The room should be ready at 4 pm on April 21, and it takes about 1 hours to fly from London to Hong Kong, plus a 12-hour time difference, so Diana should take the flight around 7 pm local time in London."

"Smart! You ask Olivia to help book two first-class tickets first, and we will study the specific situation after we go to London. After all, there is too little information in China."

"Okay, I'll arrange it now."

In Di Ye's future plan, Diana's value is far more than just building a fashion website, so she attaches great importance to it. She goes to the post office with Xia Fangfei to make international calls, and finds Di Yan to have dinner with her, and discusses with Yuncheng City The specific operation of the official website of the government.

The next morning, Di Ye went to the city government and held a meeting with the publicity department, faxed the materials to Pengcheng, and asked the R&D team to catch up with the work. In just one day, more than 20 web page samples were prepared, and then printed out and brought out. Go to the municipal government to show it to the leaders of various departments, and add, delete and modify the content according to their requirements.

This process is very cumbersome, far more troublesome than writing codes. Di Ye went back and forth four or five times to the municipal government, during which he also met with the executive deputy mayor Wang Beilin, chatted briefly for more than ten minutes, and then in his Under my care, I got a technical labor fee of 5 yuan in advance.

Di Ye didn't care about this small amount of money, and gave it directly to the R&D team as a bonus, including Fu Chuanyi and Qi Yinghong, who each shared nearly 2000 yuan. The determined guy made up his mind to continue hanging out with him after graduation.

On April 4th, Di Ye once again became the shopkeeper, leaving the follow-up work of the official website of Yuncheng to Di Yan. He took Huang Ya and Xia Fangfei and set off from Pujiang Hongqiao International Airport to Holland. amsterdam.

　I'm really sorry, I have always encountered various troubles these days, and the codewords are very unstable.
