Back To 1995

   Chapter 665 Benchmark

   After all, he was the president of Netscape, and other Internet companies took a fancy to Baxter's "experience" and wanted him to lead the company to go public.

   says so, it seems that he is still popular, but the president of Netscape, compared with the consultants of other small Internet companies, is definitely not reluctant to be inferior to the **** phoenix.

   But now that the Internet has been established, several giants have begun to exist side by side. The presidents of Internet companies such as ICQ, Yahoo, AOL, and Lycos are all radishes and pits. How can they be so easy to seize.

Song Yang just nodded to Baxter. He and Baxter were just casual acquaintances. If it was Chotus, Song Yang could give up the position of a business president, or even the president of the North American Global Investment Foundation. Joetus came to sit in the town, but Baxter, it would be too far away, Song Yang and him did not have much friendship.

  Song Yang raised the brandy and said to Jim Clark who was shaking the barbecue, "Jim, I am going to recommend you to the Federal Inventors Hall of Fame, Federal Academy of Sciences and Federal Academy of Arts and Sciences through the Federal Internet Society!"

  Jim Clark suddenly heard this, and his breath was heavy. The Federal Inventors Hall of Fame, which is a dream of almost all people in the American technology industry, Wang An was selected before, not to mention the Federal Academy of Sciences.

Once you enter the Federal Inventors Hall of Fame, you will become peers with a number of monumental figures in the history of science. Edison, Stephenson who invented the train, Fulton, Hargreaves, etc., are all federal inventors. hall character.

   This thing is something that Bill Gates is envious of, but Bill Gates has such a bad reputation, I don’t know if there are people who recommend him, but there are definitely a lot of people who hold him back and prevent him from being selected.

If Jim Clark enters the Federal Scientist Hall of Fame, he will become the first person in the Internet industry to be selected. As for the two houses of the Federal Academy of Sciences, if selected, he is basically an honorary federal academician, but for Jim Clark , this is the grand slam of life.

Don't talk about Jim Clark, the little fat Anderson sitting on the side nibbling on the meat feels that the meat in his hand is a little unscented. If you can do all these things, then be a man for Jim Clark's sake. Say something. If you're welcome, he has no regrets in his life!

Taking a deep breath, Jim Clark paused for a while, then nodded heavily towards Song Yang, raised the wine glass, and drank the large glass of wine in it. No matter what Song Yang's purpose was, he did not refuse. I understand, I missed it, and if I want to wait for the next opportunity, I guess I have to wait until the others are gone...

   "Anderson, if you like any project in the future, you can cooperate with the North American Global Investment Foundation!"

  Song Yang said to Anderson that Anderson is indeed a technical genius. If there is an opportunity for cooperation in the future, Song Yang would not mind the venture capitalist.

   Anderson also raised his glass and did not reject Song Yang's proposal. Netscape was gone. If he still wanted to be in the Internet, he really needed a supporter, backed by Song Yang, enough for Anderson to continue tossing around in the Internet industry.

Jim Clark drank a lot of alcohol today. Even if he didn't drink, he probably wouldn't be intoxicated. Before leaving, Jim Clark took Song Yang and whispered, "Song, there will be a party in a few days. Come and join us!"

  Song Yang understood that Jim Clark was going to introduce all his contacts to Song Yang.

Although Jim Clark's contacts are all from the Donkey Party, Song Yang is not inaccessible. The only difference is that at the critical moment of Song Yang, his **** is to sit on the side of the Elephant Party. On the party's side, outside of the general election, there is no chance for cooperation.

   You must know that Jim Clark and Song Yang are still fellow villagers. They are both from Texas. Jim Clark has not yet become an important supporter of the Donkey Party.

  With the contacts in Jim Clark's hands, Song Yang's situation in Silicon Valley, as well as the federal technology, justice, trade and other industries, can change a large part. Wall Street and Hollywood have always been the traditional sites of the Donkey Party and have many supporters.

   With this part of the network, Song Yang didn't talk about changing the situation, at least not being targeted so much.

   "I will definitely be there!" Song Yang said solemnly to Jim Clark.

   When Jim Clark, Anderson and others left, Hu Zhiwei couldn't help but asked Song Yang, "That power of attorney is very important?!"

After    finished speaking, Hu Zhiwei looked apologetic. He knew that he had asked too much, but he was really curious. He could hear that the things Song Yang promised Jim Clark seemed to be very important.

  Song Yang smiled indifferently, picked up the authorization letter of Netscape browser, and threw it aside, "It's not of much use to me, but some people really need it..."

  If Yahoo can get this power of attorney, I am afraid that if you are not dreaming, you will wake up laughing. Even if you pay hundreds of millions of dollars, Yahoo may be willing to do it.

The reason why Song Yang helped Netscape raise the price and also helped Jim Clark enter the Federal Scientist Hall of Fame, in addition to being a **** to AOL, is also for the entire Internet peers to see. Song Yang did not want to be like Microsoft, and he wanted to cut himself off. , get the heaviest punch every time!

Through Jim Clark, I also told those colleagues that they would definitely not suffer any loss by joining Song Yang's camp. They could win over some supporters. It's hard to say how many of these supporters are, but at least they won't let Song Yang fall into Microsoft. That awkward situation.

   Turning his head, Song Yang looked at Hu Zhiwei and the others, "Wait until Christmas, when Panda TV will officially go on sale, we will do some publicity for Panda TV here!"

  Hu Zhiwei's spirit was shocked. They came to the flowery world of America this time to "watch", to see how America played with flowers, to promote panda TV, and Jinling Panda was going to take it back.

   The global brand management rights of Panda TV are in the hands of the North American Global Investment Foundation. Except for the domestic sales rights which are in the hands of Jinling Panda, the sales rights and brand management rights in other regions are all on Songyang's side.

In addition to learning how to play the flower work, Hu Zhiwei brought designers and engineers here this time to collect information. The users of Panda TV and the users in the next few years are mainly from overseas, especially the users of America. Panda TV needs these users to have viewing habits, hobbies, etc., to modify the design of LCD TVs.

"Western Pictures has completed a 13-episode animated short film for Panda TV, which will be broadcast on TV stations around the world, and the special effects of the movie version of "Kung Fu Panda" are also being produced. Because of the special effects production, it will wait until next year. It can only be launched in the summer, and Panda TV can launch the second-generation LCD TV next year!"

   Hearing that Song Yang, in order to promote Panda TV, not to mention a cartoon, but also an animation movie, which will be shown all over the world, Hu Zhiwei and the others once again felt what it means to be rich and powerful.

Using cartoons for publicity is not a new thing. More than ten years ago, Nippon launched "Astro Boy", and the advertisements in the patches were Hitachi and Casio. It is difficult to say how influential this animation is, but As people who grew up in Asia in the 1980s and 1990s, there is no need to say much about their support for these two brands.

Even more famous than "Astro Boy", it is probably "Haier Brothers", which abruptly made this brand a "national brand", and its influence has lasted for decades. This brand has the same reputation, and there are even a few more refrigerator brands, but all of them are defeated.

Hu Zhiwei and the others can understand the use of cartoons for publicity, but making a special effects animation film directly for publicity is somewhat unexpected. Hu Zhiwei doesn't know how much the "Kung Fu Panda" movie will cost, but he can get it from Song Yang. Saying it out of his mouth would take so long, he knew it would definitely not be cheap.

   "Xueleshan's global professional e-sports league will also officially start at Christmas. Panda TV and screen will be the main sponsors of Xueleshan E-sports!"

   In addition, Double Click, WPP Group, Snow Mountain, Forita Antivirus, Yeadex and other companies will promote Panda TV on a global scale. "

   laughed, Song Yang said to Hu Zhiwei with a little teasing, "I'm afraid that by then, the 20,000 sets of Panda TV will not be enough to sell!"

   Hearing Song Yang's ridicule, Hu Zhiwei rubbed his hands nervously. He didn't know what the professional e-sports player was doing, but it sounded like a very high-end game, but he could understand the global promotion.

  Hu Zhiwei doesn't know how much US dollars will be spent in this wave, but it will definitely not be cheap, which makes Hu Zhiwei both nervous and looking forward to it.

If it is true as Song Yang said, if Panda TV can sell well, then just 20,000 units can be sold for 51 million US dollars, which is more than 400 million yuan in RMB. You must know that Panda TV is Jinling Panda For the processing, the cost is the domestic cost, and the profit is still very high.

New Panda TV, Song Yang's domestic Star Wish Foundation, holds 60% of the shares, and the remaining 40% of the shares belong to the original Panda TV company. If Song Yang can make $400 million this time, if Song Yang agrees to pay dividends, The Jinling Panda side is expected to get 64 million RMB, which is more than 8 million US dollars!

This amount of money is not even the cost for Song Yang, who has spent countless dollars on the new Panda TV, and even acquired Samsung, LG panels, and semiconductors for the Panda’s panels and screens. In terms of TV, it has become a major taxpayer in Jinling.

  Panda TV will also become one of the most delicious companies in Jinling, and even in China, from Goubuli in the past, and no one wants to go!

Hu Zhiwei didn't dare to think about the consequences if the sales were not good. Song Yang might not have much impact, but Jinling Panda might have a shock. After all, they invested hundreds of millions of dollars. The water floats, and you have to hear a sound.

  Song Yang patted Hu Zhiwei on the shoulder and asked Gallo to arrange a rented villa for them to rest, and then waited for the Christmas sale. It was a mule or a horse, so it had to be pulled out for a walk.
