"I search, you can know!" A buzzword swept the world instantly!
A week later, in order to make Isearch develop faster, Henry decisively used the Netscape browser pop-up window. The method of pop-up window, Henry now uses less and less. The truth is, if you don't use it, it's amazing! Frequent pop-ups will definitely give users a sense of boredom. Over time, users will not pay attention to the content of the pop-ups at all, but directly click X. But if you don't usually pop up the window, but suddenly one day, it will definitely make users feel a little curious!
Netscape browser hasn't popped up for a long time...
Brother is not in the arena, but the legend of brother is still circulating in the arena! Netscape browser will cause a huge Internet sensation every time it pops up, and this time it is no exception!
Many users are very curious about the content of the Netscape browser's pop-up window, and only when they clicked in, they found that it was really amazing and powerful. The web interface is extremely simple, with only a search box followed by a button that says "Isearch". Then there is a line of small words at the bottom of the search box to explain: "Enter the search information, then click Isearch, you can find it!"
Everyone was shocked after trying it!
They searched a lot of things, and Isearch can immediately feed back the search results to users.
Many people keep searching for curiosity and fun, and then check the search results. They are very happy! Especially in universities, search has become one of the pleasures of many college students. They searched their school's website, BBS, papers, etc. Some people searched for their own names, searched for the names of classmates, and searched for the names of professors. After some weird students searched for their own names, they happily posted the search results on the BBS, and they suddenly became popular!
celebrities also love to use Isearch, because you can see websites or posts related to them, you can see a popular search ranking list of Isearch stars, pay attention to your ranking!
Ever since Isearch, people seem to be inseparable from search anymore!
Since the launch of Isearch, the global online portal has become more powerful and the portal market share has reached 95%! This is an extremely heavy blow to AOL and other portals. Now, they are basically dying!
But now is exactly the critical moment for AOL to go public. If you lose the chain at this time, it will be over. After the listing, it will definitely end in dismal!
In response to this emergency, AOL immediately held a press conference. At the press conference, Steve Case announced loudly: "AOL will launch its own search engine!!!"
Steve Case must give investors confidence, in any case, the slogan must be shouted!
We will also have search engines! ! ! !
AOL's crisis public relations are fast. In addition to holding a press conference, it also recruits search engine technical talents with great fanfare. On the one hand, they recruit people from schools and society. On the other hand, they hold high "high salaries" and "equity" sharp knives against Isearch. . What Henry hates most is digging walls. In order to prevent this from happening, Henry has already promised high salaries and options at the beginning. Not only that, but also signed in the work contract "If the employee voluntarily resigns and leaves Isearch, then within three years You are not allowed to engage in search-related work agreements, otherwise it will be a breach of contract. "The liquidated damages, Henry set very high, according to each person's position and salary, ranging from one million to ten million US dollars!
AOL's **** finally digs into the steel bar!
With a bang, it's broken!
The AOL digging plan returned without success, and it can only recruit people for their duties. Within a week, AOL formed a 20-person technical team dedicated to developing search engines!
This time, AOL has learnt well. They dare not infringe on the patent rights of Isearch. Instead, they greeted Isearch in advance and expressed their willingness to pay the patent fee! At this critical juncture of listing, if there is a lawsuit and infringement of others' patents, can this stock rise?
No matter how rascal Steve Case is, he knows how to measure!
For the basic Internet patents of web crawlers, Henry had to license the patents, or else a patent monopoly would be formed! In accordance with the nature of Steve Case, he absolutely researched and sued Isearch at the same time.
Since I can't stop it, I just get a patent fee. However, the PageRank patent is not authorized by Henry, and AOL must not be used! PageRank is different from basic patents. There are various algorithms, and it is not impossible to bypass it. Such patents cannot be monopolized at all! In fact, Isearch has not announced such patents and technologies!
AOL does not know the search principle and mechanism of Isearch at all.
AOL's technical team started to stay up late and work overtime, often working until one or two o'clock in the middle of the night. It was really hard work. They have to develop the search engine before the end of December, because at the end of December, AOL is preparing to go public.
Henry saw that they only wanted to develop a search engine in less than a month, and suddenly shook his head, wanting to say to Steve Case: AOL is really awesome!
Unexpectedly, in December, AOL really developed a search engine. But a lot of the search content is that the head is not right, and the response is extremely slow, it takes five or six seconds to respond! However, if you are searching for some very popular information, the search content is still quite reliable, and the speed is much faster!
AOL officially launched its search engine one day before listing!
That night, AOL announced to the outside world: "AOL's independently developed AOL search engine is officially launched, and the traffic on AOL portals has increased greatly!!!"
In order to understand his opponent, Henry used the AOL search engine and almost vomited blood!
For example, Henry searches for "Ford Motors", but the results returned are carriages, trains, and other things related to the word "car". To find information about Ford Motors, I don't know how many pages I need to turn... and Henry waits until Huaerdu Thanks, it returned the search results! What's more weird is that Henry accidentally typed the word "beauty" to search, and the search results were all AOL information, you couldn't find any other information at all!
Then Henry tried the word "guo", "zai", "line", after searching. Henry had to "Thirty-Two Likes" to AOL. It was so strong and incredible. There is a message that turns all English letters into AOL! ! ! !
On the second day, despite a large number of people complaining about it, AOL's ability to make a search engine is a big improvement in the eyes of investors! Moreover, AOL provides Internet access services and has achieved little success today. They have developed a dial-up software for Internet access. This dial-up Internet software popped up so powerfully, three times a day, three times a day, and many users were fooled to AOL!
Some of the new users are super novices. They have never been in touch with the Internet. They just click on a pop-up window and enter a website. They can't distinguish good from bad at all. They are simply led by AOL!
America Online relies on this method to counterattack step by step.
But Xiao Bai will eventually become Da Bai one day.
Because of this, AOL often automatically runs away some users. Moreover, AOL now only provides Internet access services at its headquarters in Virginia. If it expands to the United States, Henry will say Alexander!
But in any case, AOL has very good development potential and is highly sought after by investors.
On the day of listing, AOL's stock price rose as fast as it was on a rocket! At the end of the day, the total market value of AOL had reached 2 billion US dollars! AOL's market share is not high, and the main body of the company is a website company. Compared with the Netscape browser, which almost monopolizes the Internet, it is naturally far behind. However, even so, after AOL went public, the market value rose to 2 billion US dollars, which immediately shocked the United States and the world!
First, Netscape created the Nasdaq miracle, and then AOL took over, and the entire Internet industry suddenly boiled! ! !
Seeing that the market value of AOL was as high as US$2 billion after the listing~www.mtlnovel.com~ Countless people became jealous, geared up, eager to try, and prepared to do a big job in the Internet industry!
However, just two days after AOL went public, Cisco went public.
Cisco, this super predator, has come menacingly, and has come to the Nasdaq with its tyrannical posture! ! !
Compared to Cisco, the giant crocodile, AOL is at best a small crawler.
As soon as Cisco was listed, its market value surpassed AOL. This Nima hasn't even started yet, AOL lost!
Cisco IPO issued 20 million shares, accounting for 20% of the total share capital, and the issue price was US$20 per share. Subsequently, Cisco's stock price went up in a hurry, and at the end of the day was still soaring, the stock price rose to 60 US dollars per share. Cisco's market value has also reached 6 billion US dollars, but this is obviously not the limit, and it will definitely rise the next day!
However, that night, there was a global sensation.
Cisco's gains are too fierce and amazing. Numerous media have reported frantically on Cisco's listing.
At this time, a name suddenly resounded all over the world! ! ! !
Henry Williams, male, 14 years old, a quarter of Jewish ancestry, a quarter of Chinese ancestry, and a half of British ancestry, Cisco's controlling shareholder, holding 53.6% of shares (after listing, the shares have decreased ), the youngest billionaire in the world! ! ! ! In addition, this person is suspected to be Henry Williams, the author of the American genius writer "Harry Potter" and "Jurassic Park"! ! !
99% similarity!
