Chapter 1538 Two Generations of Technology
While thinking, Qin Feng arrived at Mountain View City in Las Vegas.
Mountain View is not a big city. It is a small city of more than 30 square kilometers. It has always existed as a station in the San Francisco Bay Area. Before that, it had always been a small city with an agricultural economy.
However, with the completion of Silicon Valley in the United States, Mountain View has gradually become a global high-tech center.
Silicon Valley.
Every time Qin Feng arrives in Silicon Valley, he feels how developed the United States is.
Even if you come to Silicon Valley twenty years later, you can still feel that even though China's development is changing rapidly, there is still a big gap compared with the world's top technology centers.
Of course, if you just look at it from the outside, this place is just average. It’s just a sunny and very pleasant city.
That's it. There are no high-rise buildings, no wide roads, landmark buildings, nothing, but this is Silicon Valley.
Qin Feng arrived at Google.
Of course, Google today is still very small.
It's as small as renting a few offices in a very small office building and a dozen people working there.
This is Google.
But he dared to shout out the price of 30 million US dollars.
Moreover, it is still the financing price. It is not the buyout price.
Not long ago, probably a month ago, the asking price was only US$1 million.
Calling out $30 million now makes people feel like a lion is opening its mouth.
No, Lisa was complaining, feeling that Qin Feng had been taken advantage of.
It’s just a small company with more than a dozen people, and 30 million US dollars is too exaggerated.
Qin Feng smiled and said nothing more. After all, no one knew about this matter. I am afraid that even Google itself does not know how powerful it will be in the future.
Therefore, 30 million US dollars is worth it in Qin Feng's opinion.
For hundreds of billions of dollars, that's a good deal.
Seeing that Qin Feng was indifferent, Lisa didn't know what to say. After all, he was willing to spend Qin Feng's money, so what else could she say.
The relationship between the two was just an ordinary boyfriend and girlfriend, and it was a bit strange. They often didn't see each other for a year and a half. Lisa felt that Qin Feng might have a girlfriend. However, she didn't say anything.
After all, with her father as a role model, she didn't want the relationship between them to be like her parents.
If the two of them became enemies because of this, it would really be a shame.
"Don't worry, I won't do business at a loss." Qin Feng said with a smile.
Lisa nodded.
hope so.
After entering, Qin Feng saw the unkempt Larry Page and Sergey Brin.
These two people were completely unaware of Qin Feng's arrival.
Lisa wanted to remind the two of them, but Qin Feng stopped her.
You know, Qin Feng also studied IT and is a professional.
In the past few years, even though Qin Feng has traveled a lot, he has been studying on his own when he has nothing to do. With Qin Feng's photographic memory and his developed brain, his learning is naturally progressing at a rapid pace.
As a result, Qin Feng was also fascinated by this look.
The two of them are debugging Google pagerank.
Google PageRank is a proprietary algorithm used to measure the importance of a specific web page relative to other web pages in the search engine index. Simply put, this is hyperlink technology.
Everyone will use this technology when searching on the Internet. This technology ensures that the most efficient way to open the URL that everyone wants to open.
Before this, Qin Feng and Robin Li discussed Baidu's hyperlink analysis technology.
But between the two, in Qin Feng's view, Robin Li's hyperlink analysis technology belongs to the first generation of search engines, while Google's Google PageRank is the second generation.
Robin Li's hyperlink analysis technology is not complicated, it is just some special algorithms. Its core is that among all the results of a certain search, the more web pages that are pointed to by hyperlinks from other web pages, the higher their value will be.
It should be ranked higher in the results sorting. The core of its technology lies in the use of hyperlink analysis technology. In addition to analyzing the text of the indexed web page itself, it also analyzes and indexes the URLs and A's of all links pointing to the web page, and even the text around the link.
But in essence, it is a quoted voting mechanism, which has a certain rationality for static web pages or website homepages. But in fact, it itself can be faked.
Even if the official remains fair, it is still easy to be artificially falsified, resulting in the information users search for not being what they want most.
This is also the reason why so many fake drug advertisements became popular later.
If you really want to say that the official is cheating, it is not true. Of course, this has something to do with the official.
At least, someone has revealed the characteristics of hyperlink analysis technology. Then those fake drug companies or hospitals only need to create multiple websites at the same time and link to their real websites.
Then, when users search, they will definitely search for this fake drug website.
The resources that real users want to search for are ranked behind because other websites are not directional enough.
Therefore, this is also the first generation of search engine technology.
Now, the Google PageRank that Larry Page and Sergey Brin are studying is the second generation.
It also uses a voting mechanism to a certain extent, but it has multiple other advanced calculation formulas. When users search for resources, they will continue to perform repeated calculations to determine the effectiveness of the website.
This results in users being able to search for the resources they want more quickly, instead of being blocked by some junk advertising websites.
Qin Feng was fascinated when he saw it.
At first, I just watched and said nothing, but later, I directly joined the discussion.
And Larry Page and Sergey Brin didn't notice anything wrong. They were also studying this technology and wanted to optimize it more carefully. After all, for a search engine company, search engines
The excellence of technology determines the future height of this company.
As a result, the three of them lost track of time while discussing.
Lisa shook her head helplessly.
She was used to this. It was the same at Apple.
Those technical staff often forget about food and sleep.
This is completely normal for IT companies.
So, she didn't say much. She walked aside and prepared to drink coffee.
But what was very depressing was that this company didn't even have a coffee machine. I shook my head helplessly, so I had to find a coffee shop outside, drink a few cups of coffee leisurely, and come back with some desserts.
At this time, neither Lin Feng nor the three of them had finished the discussion.
Lisa was not in a hurry, found a magazine, and started reading casually.
About this time, when the magazine was almost finished, the discussion between the three finally came to an end.
At this time, Larry Page and Sergey Brin also realized something was wrong.
"Who are you? You're not from our company, are you?" Larry Page looked puzzled.
Of course, they know that among the employees of their company, there are no such talented people.
Otherwise, the two founders would not have worked so hard.
