Chapter 821 Landmark Event

"I understand, boss." Ni Nan answered directly after hearing the boss's arrangement.

"As long as European businessmen see the benefits of the Internet, they will flock in."

"And those politicians in Europe have close ties with businessmen."

"Some things are inconvenient for us to intervene, so we have to use interests to push them."

"The development of the game World of Warcraft must continue." Liu Hai has already written out all the framework races of the World of Warcraft game.

"Yes!" Ni Nan felt that his boss must have a think tank team behind him, otherwise they would not be able to come up with a game with such a complex framework.

Because the framework of the entire game is too complex, if the entire framework is used in the game, there will be many possibilities for the playability of this game.

“Also, if anyone else has good ideas, please put them forward!”

"We can also set up a game developer alliance. As long as the game passes the alliance's technical safety review, it can run on our Panda system."

“In addition, the learning function of the Internet must also be developed!”

"As for software, we can also set up a green software alliance and formulate a safety standard. In the future, no matter who develops the software, as long as it passes the safety standard test, it can run on our system."

"The Internet is open and inclusive. We just need to set standards and set an example," Liu Hai said again.

At this stage, the only way to attract more people to join the Panda system and make the Panda system more and more mature is to attract more and more people to use it.

Ni Nan nodded and quickly wrote down every word the boss said.

"We must also develop digital communication technology, and we must also develop the second-generation Panda mobile phones." The second-generation Panda mobile phone that Liu Hai mentioned is a digital communication phone that can send text messages.

"Boss, I think some laboratories can be split up." Ni Nan said again.

"Well, I also agree with flat management and reducing the number of middle-level managers as much as possible. We are in the field of technology, and we focus on technology, not management."

"In our company, we only value skills. As long as they complete the task according to schedule, we can let them do whatever they want. Even if they go on vacation, we don't care about them."

"Also, you have to tell them that they are not working for me, but for themselves. Look at those financially independent guys in our company who are still working overtime in the lab." Liu Hai's Fenghuo Technology Company has also produced a group of multi-millionaires.

Panda computers, Panda operating systems, Panda mobile phones, wireless communications, Internet service servers, chips, all of these things are the achievements of researchers in the laboratory.

These researchers can all receive a certain proportion of patent royalties.

Among them, Panda Mobile and Wireless Communications paid the highest dividends.

Of course, these researchers get paid a lot, but Liu gets even more.

This is actually a disguised incentive mechanism.

When researchers see that others are earning tens of millions in patent dividends every year and have to pay millions in taxes, how can they have the energy to go home and sleep after get off work?

Fenghuo Technologies has attracted a large number of foreign researchers.

However, most of the foreign researchers are based at the Panda Technical Service Center in London.

The London Panda Technical Service Center is actually not solely affiliated with FiberHome Technologies. The shareholders behind this service center include not only the royal family but also dealers.

So if someone wants to set up this Panda Technical Service Center, someone will naturally come forward to teach these people a lesson.

The London Panda Technical Service Center mostly takes on tasks from the headquarters.

Of course, we will also develop some things independently, and these will also be implemented in accordance with the reward rules of the head office.

Liu Hai plans to turn the London Panda Technical Service Center into a development center in the future.

Liu Hai's job now is to provide guidance on the general direction. To be more precise, he is giving orders to Ni Nan and then letting his subordinates carry them out.

The Bald Eagle has expressed close attention in China to Niu Niu's efforts to develop Internet standards.

The Niuniu newspaper mocked the bald eagle: You nouveau riche don't even have a civilian Internet connection at home, and you still express your concern? Why don't you come here and learn from us?

Niu Niu: Our Internet is open and inclusive, and is open to the whole world. Unlike some people, who do not allow other people's computers to enter their homes and who would not allow good things to enter if they are not doing their own business.

Gallic Rooster: Don’t speak, upstarts. We Gallic Roosters will become the second country in the world to build the Internet. We Europe will become the center of technology and the center of the world.

Some major countries in the East: We are willing to participate in the Internet Standards Conference in London and support the development of the Internet.

Bald Eagle: Shameless!
Little Notebook: Just shameless!
Fat Bear: Haha!
Regardless of the bald eagle's concern, the London Internet Standards Conference was held on schedule on April 1987, 4.

Representatives and relevant experts from more than 100 countries around the world attended the meeting.

The three-day meeting produced the first white paper on Internet application standards.

It is worth mentioning that Feixiong also sent representatives to participate in this Internet Standards Conference.

Four out of five class committee members came, only some nouveau riche did not come.

This was later recorded in history as a landmark event.

It marks that the bald eagle begins to drift away from the main body of the world, and that the bald eagle's slogan of freedom is just empty talk.

Fenghuo Technology Company also established two alliances. The first one is the Green Software Alliance. Any software that meets the standards of the Green Software Alliance can be connected to the Panda operating system.

The second is the Game Security Alliance. Any game developed by any individual or group can be connected to the Panda operating system as long as it meets the standards of the security alliance.

And Fenghuo Technology Company stated that the Internet is free, the Internet is open, the Internet is inclusive, the Internet is international, and the Internet belongs to everyone.

At the same time, we invite people from all over the world to build and maintain the Internet.

Niu Niu’s Internet operating company released Internet data for March.

The number of registered users of the chat and dating software exceeds 30!
The number of registered users of the forum software exceeds 25!
The number of registered users of World of Warcraft exceeds 40.

1987年4月10日，魔兽大陆游戏宣布付费用户达到了13万，也就是说魔兽大陆游戏每个月能有130万美元的收入。

The World of Warcraft game costs $10 per month.

This news stunned people all over the world. A text adventure game could actually earn $130 million a month.

That's $1560 million in revenue a year. This is simply stealing money.

In addition, the World of Warcraft game also generates traffic revenue.

And everyone knows that once the Internet across Europe is connected, the annual revenue of this game may increase tenfold or even dozens of times.

As for why the number of paying game users is so low, while the social software and forums have so many registered users.

This is because the forum also has social software, and many college students from other parts of Europe registered accounts when they came to experience it.

However, for the text-interactive game World of Warcraft, since Europe has not yet been connected to the Internet, these game accounts have not been paid!
Niu Niu's Internet company officially started charging, with two charging modes, one is the monthly subscription mode, the other is the traffic mode. This made the Gallic chicken next door jump up and down anxiously, and I also want to have what Niu Niu has.

Soon, a cooperation agreement was reached with Niu Niu dealers and Fenghuo Technology Company.

The reason why Niu Niu dealers want to get involved is because Niu Niu dealers have familiar management experience.

As for Fenghuo Technology Company, it mainly provides technical services.

As for the bald eagle? Let them go wherever they want. We Europeans can have fun on our own.

Of course there are different voices in Europe, but they are immediately refuted by people in their own country, especially students.

Whenever a politician says he wants to oppose Internet access, students will immediately go out to protest with signs and throw rotten eggs.

Not only the Gallic roosters, but also a number of small countries in Europe have been willing to join the Internet.

This has made domestic server and related equipment manufacturers very busy, especially as the number of people using Internet services has increased, and the demand for servers has also increased.

Some college students in Bald Eagle's country also went to Niu Niu to experience the charm of the Internet.

You can make friends and pick up girls on the Internet!

You can criticize the opinions you don’t like on the forum and give them a good scolding!
The most important thing is the text interactive game, it’s so damn fun.

And game players can also PK with each other.

That is to say, when two game players are in the same area, they are likely to meet each other and can actively initiate PK with each other. Of course, the other party can refuse.

However, what many players are looking forward to even more is that players from the Alliance and the Horde will meet on the battlefield.

However, you need to wait until you reach level 20 to go to the battlefield, and then you will go to a special battlefield area.

At the same time, the official World of Warcraft game also released wonderful game stickers, this is the real thing.

Many game players bought these physical items to see what the items they got in the game looked like.

The players of the tribe were a little confused when they saw that their player character was actually a green-skinned monster.

Of course, there are also various monster maps and NPC maps.

This way, gamers can give full play to their imagination when playing.

There are also monasteries and textures of cities like Storm City, all of which are beautifully drawn.

After experiencing Internet life, the college students of Bald Eagle always felt that their lives were a little empty when they returned.

There is no way to flirt with strange girls, no way to play games with friends all night, and no way to use my debating skills on the forum.

These college students who feel uncomfortable want to make others uncomfortable.

And those college students who heard that their classmates were going to experience it, if they had the conditions, couldn't wait to fly directly to Niu Niu.

Then after these Bald Eagle college students came back, they also felt empty, lonely, and depressed, so they went for a walk on the streets.

From politicians’ offices to the doors of various computer companies.

Of course, these college students' strolling is definitely not just their own idea, because some of them have seen the profits of the Internet.

Even in a place like Niu Niu, a game company can make a profit of more than 1000 million a year. If it were my great bald eagle, the profit would be over million a year!

Who would go against the US dollar?

Especially Motorola, which has a good relationship with FiberHome Technologies, and Americas Communications.

Moreover, American Communications Corporation has natural advantages in the Internet.

Although the Bald Eagle is also developing the Internet in China.

But unfortunately, it will probably take some time for these domestic companies to develop a mature Internet system with a complete profit model.

It is worth mentioning that Nokia had launched a new Nokia mobile phone in March 1987.

As soon as Nokia mobile phones came out, they were in short supply, and Nokia mobile phones were able to adapt to the communications of America Communications Corporation.

This can make many Bald Eagle companies drool and they have invested money in the mobile phone research and development industry.

It’s just that these companies don’t know that a certain company is almost completing digital communication technology and the second generation of mobile phones is about to come out.

Nokia's mobile phones are not only popular in China, but also in small notebooks and other places.

Nokia's mobile phone sales data directly pushed the company's stock price soaring.

Motorola is a little anxious and wants the OEM to lower the price, but the OEM said that our orders are in short supply and there is no room for price reduction.

In fact, the profits of OEM factories are now considerable, because with the increase in the scale of mobile phone manufacturing, various costs are gradually decreasing, and with the continuous maturity of technology, they are constantly improving.

Costs are also falling.

However, what the OEM factory says does not count. This needs to be coordinated by the higher-level departments.

Liu Hai breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the promulgation of the Internet standard. Although the bald eagle did not participate, it no longer mattered.

In fact, these Europeans still have a lot of self-esteem, and they will definitely not give up the opportunity to get rid of the bald eagle.

Maybe if the bald eagle didn't come to attend this Internet standards conference, some of these European countries would be laughing secretly.

After all, the bald eagle is here, and it would be more troublesome if it caused trouble inside.

At the same time, Kyoto is also building the Internet, which is now mainly built in various universities. FiberHome Technologies has donated 2 computers to these universities.

There are very few people in Kyoto who use personal computers now. Even Liu Hai doesn't have a personal computer at home.

Liu Hai does have a private computer in his office, but it is not connected to the Internet.

Because of the small user base, building computer rooms is a losing business. Internet services in Europe are not rolled out across the board, but are launched based on the number of users in a region. Don't even think about providing services in the countryside.

In 2020, in many remote rural areas abroad, there is sometimes no Internet, let alone mobile phone signal.

This is because the West operates in a purely capital-based way. It is impossible for them to set up a signal tower for a dozen households in your area and then deploy a network.

This is also why Max's Starlink system became very popular abroad, because there are indeed many places with no signal. Don't think that many places are like in our country where dozens of households will set up a signal tower for you on the opposite mountain. That is impossible!
How many years did it take for mobile phone signals to be available in subways in Western countries?
There used to be articles saying that people in Western countries like to read while taking the subway!

Let them go to a subway station with cell phone signal and see how many people are reading.
