286 layers of pressure

According to the law of conservation of mass and zero-sum game theory, when someone is happy, someone will inevitably be sad.

This is especially true in business negotiations.

For example, the Chinese national men's football team and the British national football team met in the World Cup finals to compete for the Hercules Cup. If China wins and Chinese fans are ecstatic, it will inevitably be accompanied by the sadness and loss of British fans...

It was as if Li Ke felt very comfortable now, but Satya and Sundar began to worry.

Whether it is Microsoft or Google, it is actually not very tempting to deal with the winners taking all and the losers losing all the money.

This is determined by the current situation of the two companies.

Everyone has already become the world's top in their respective fields. They don't have to worry too much, and they can all have a steady stream of income. In this case, who would be willing to fight to the death?

After all, both companies are huge, and the resources they can mobilize are actually similar. If they are destined to fight to the death, the winning side is destined to be a miserable victory.

The profit may be huge, but if you spend a lot of money, the company's own risk resistance will definitely decline. If you cannot quickly realize technology, it is difficult to say whether you can laugh to the end.

The key is that when they are taking a gamble, they don’t know if there are any other trump cards in the miscellaneous academy.

This kind of desperate gameplay that only companies that are about to run a business will be regarded as a life-saving straw.

But it is not possible for the two companies to compete. As Li Ke said, if this technology is packaged and sold to other companies, it will definitely be loved by countless other capitals.

Perhaps the two companies join forces to fight to delay the promotion of new technologies, but in the high-tech electronics market, consumers always vote with their feet, and companies that are not as skilled as others will eventually be eliminated by the market.

If they cannot complete technical overtaking within a limited time, the only thing waiting for them is to end, at most, it is to see who will survive for a longer time...

This is the sadness of technology companies.

Under the bright coat, the most intense competition is hidden. In particular, the capital market is becoming increasingly sensitive to black swan events such as technological overtaking.

Both Satya and Sundar absolutely believe that if news of Miscellaneous Academy has the next generation of operating systems and search engine technology spread together with today's virtual display technology, what is waiting for Microsoft and Google will inevitably be a plunge in stock prices.

When the news of the Miscellaneous Academy selling the next generation of operating systems and search engines was spread, and Microsoft and Google did not get it in the end, it would be more than just a stock plunge. The company's buying level was lowered, and major capitals began to slowly get out. In response to this situation, both Microsoft and Google need to invest heavily in the R&D field...

This is indeed a very embarrassing prospect.

The two even regretted it at the same time. It seemed that the strategic alliance between the two companies was too early. For example, today's situation is actually not suitable for the two companies to discuss with Li Ke together.

When it is really time to be at stake, everyone still hopes to die for the fellow Taoist who can’t die. This is nothing wrong. After all, whether it is Satya or Sundar, there are tens of thousands of people under his command to follow him to have food.

"This is probably the situation. I'm almost the same as what you introduced to me. I don't know what you think, so I can also say it. As I said just now, doing business is to exchange my sincerity for your smiles. I think you have already felt my sincerity. I will try my best to answer any questions you have. Even if I can't answer them, we, Mr. Tang, will serve you wholeheartedly. In short, it's right to be satisfied with you!"

Li Ke said loudly.

Finally, the Q&A session was coming. If Satya could actually ask some shameless questions, he believed that Sundar would be the same.

Although these two people may not know who Wang Mingyang is, they still understand the theory that if they open their eyes, they will be clear and silent when they close their eyes. After all, they cannot feel that they don’t want face anymore, so they can really want face.

This is the trouble and limitation of big people. They cannot take off their face as rags like small people.

So Li Ke could put his posture very low without any scruples, and do whatever he wants, but they couldn't.

After all, every move of the two represents the face of Microsoft and Google.

Money is a big deal, and face is even more important. The foundation of a century-old wealthy family limits their response.

In fact, this situation is a very novel experience for both of them.

Because before that, neither of them had any key technology to be subject to human experience.

In fact, in the field that both parties are good at, the main job of the two is to decide who to fight a protracted patent lawsuit with. Google and Microsoft are particularly good at this. Both companies are basically preparing materials for others or being sued by others, and have always been like this.

But this time the situation is different.

The feeling of being controlled by people is really not easy to bear. This is no longer a problem that can be solved by suing a lawsuit, but the future life and death are in the hands of others. To be honest, neither Satya nor Sundar have much experience in this situation. I think even the presidents of their previous generation do not have similar experience.

After all, I have been at the top of the pyramid for too long, and neither Microsoft nor Google have been lying on the credit book. The money spent on scientific research every year by the two companies is also astronomical. So this makes the tone of today's conversation a little weird.

Having said a thousand things, Li Ke's plan directly made the two companies that could have temporarily formed a strategic alliance and now became the biggest competitors. The businesses of the two parties did not overlap much, but now they are forcibly overlapping each other. How can we talk about this?

The two were silent for about a minute, especially after seeing Tang Puding sitting there without expressing his opinion at all, he could not remain silent after all.

Satya looked at Sundar, who was still pondering beside her, glanced at Don Pudding, who was sitting there in the old god, then looked at Li Ke with a smile on the opposite side, and said, "Actually, I don't think it's a good idea to package and sell the two technologies."

"Oh? I'd like to hear it carefully?" Li Ke did not refute, but asked with a humble look.

"I think Mr. Li has no experience in running a large company. It is difficult to run a company like Microsoft or Google. It is really difficult. In all aspects, any of our products requires mobilizing countless people to lay sales channels for products, after-sales technical support, and a huge research team to deal with possible problems at any time, such as the zero-day loopholes we often call. Can you understand what I say?"

Satya asked as she looked at Li Ke.

Li Ke nodded and replied, "Of course, I can understand, please continue."

Satya snorted and continued: "It's good that you can understand. So the question is, whether it's a new operating system or a ok search engine market, it's very large. Once it starts to promote, a large number of people need to do special things. A company needs to promote these two technologies at the same time. Even for companies like Microsoft and Google, it will be difficult, and it will affect the time of technology promotion."

Satya's words can be said to be reasonable and well-founded.

It also successfully moved Li Ke: "Is it so rare?"

Satya nodded: "Yes, it's that difficult!"

Li Ke slightly turned his head to look at Sundar, who had not spoken, and said, "So does Mr. Pichai feel afraid of difficulties? Or is it a big problem for Google to absorb these two technologies at the same time?"

Sundar did not speak directly, but glanced at Satya first. It was obvious that the Microsoft helmsman was a little confused at this time.

Li Ke did not wait for the eyes of the two to meet and sparked, and still said with a humble smile: "Actually, if both of you think this matter is too difficult, it doesn't matter. As I said before, we can expand the scope of bidding. As long as we are interested in our technology, we can invite you to sit and drink tea and chat. We have to look at the essence through the phenomenon. No matter how big the business is, the ultimate goal is to make profits. I believe that there are always people who are willing to gamble this. What do you think?"

Sundar shook his head slightly, pondered for a while and said, "Actually, Google is very experienced in this area. Our research involves all aspects. We have enough talent reserves."

This statement made Satya's face instantly cold.

...

At the same time, Xu Mengchang had already arrived at the Fenglu Five-Star Hotel, which is not far from Huaqing University. Then, with his identity as the director of the miscellaneous college, he successfully met Derek, the chief technology officer from Google, and Joseph, the representative of the Alfago team. At Xu Mengchang's strong request, he also met other members of the Alfago team who came to Beijing this time.

Seeing these people, Xu Mengchang felt very moved.

It feels really good to have money!

These people in front of me are the smartest people in the world. I still feel accomplished if I can really dig all these people to work in a miscellaneous college.

Just on his way here, Xu Mengchang made up for the most cutting-edge talent needs in the world.

What he didn't expect was that these engineers studying machine intelligence and big data have become the most urgently needed talents in the world and are also one of the highest paid IT professions.

Fortunately, Don Puding gave him great authority.

Of course, for many people, money is no longer the most attractive thing.

This is actually easy to understand. In fact, if an ordinary man has a little talent, who would show off his wealth without any trouble?

It’s like a pianist or a writer who can show off to others when he goes out is actually a rich man?

The former is like a piano master on the Forbes rich list, and the latter is like Mr. Lu Xun.

Now Xu Mengchang faces most people.

It is really not that important to make more money. It is certainly a good thing to make more money and can prove your own value, but technological progress and your own realization of your own achievements are more important to them.

This was what Tang Puding had told Xu Mengchang before. The payment was not less than the salary given by the original company, and the broader development prospects were Xu Mengchang's confidence when facing these people.

After a simple greeting, chatting about the weather, and whether the guests who came from afar were used to staying, Xu Mengchang seriously opened his mouth and entered the main topic we were going to talk about today.

"Hello everyone, I'm honored to meet with you on behalf of our Huaqing Miscellaneous Academy today. As the head of the department, I feel very honored. I took the liberty to visit today, and in fact, there is a main purpose of hoping to invite everyone to work in our Miscellaneous Academy on behalf of the Miscellaneous Academy. Of course, I know that this request is a bit abrupt, but I hope that through today's exchange, everyone can have a preliminary understanding and consider our proposal."

As soon as this sentence was said, everyone was indeed shocked.

Everyone knows that Satya and Sundar went to the Miscellaneous Academy to attend the dinner today.

Who would have thought that before the results of the Miscellaneous College came out, the Miscellaneous College actually came to poach people openly.

If Sundar had known this was the case, he would probably have sent Derek and the Alfago team from his branch directly to China.

"Wait, if I misunderstood just now, Mr. Xu wants to recruit all of us?" Derek couldn't help asking while the Alfago team was still looking at each other.

"Yes, I like to discuss issues directly. Everyone should know that the research building of our Miscellaneous College is already under construction. After the building is completed, this building will become a large-scale R&D center integrating various basic science, computers, supercomputing centers, artificial intelligence, big data and other cutting-edge scientific research."

"So we are really in a hurry to find all kinds of talents. At this time, if everyone is willing to join the Miscellaneous Academy, we can guarantee that we will pay our salaries no less than our current salary, and we will receive research environment and R&D funds absolutely no less than our current research environment. Of course, the most important thing is that we will definitely have a higher start here. For example, the Alfago Yuan project you are studying in, facts have proved that our deep learning of machines is more intelligent and efficient. How to apply this algorithm to more practical projects will be the research direction for us after we come to Miscellaneous Academy."

"This is equivalent to everyone who can directly skip the steps that are bothering you now and climb to a higher position to look down on the scenery of technology. I believe this is irresistible for many outstanding scientific researchers. Of course, this kind of preferential treatment is that our building has not been completed yet, so the work of recruiting people to the outside world has not yet been officially started."

"When all the hardware conditions are fully ready, our personnel management will definitely be stricter at that time, and the difficulty of entering a miscellaneous college will increase by a factor of a factor of a factor of a factor of a factor of a factor of a factor of a factor of a factor of a factor of a factor of a factor of a time of a time of a time of a time of a time of a time of a time of a time of a time of a time of a time of a time of a time of a time of a time of a time of a time of a time of a time of a time of a time of a time of a time of a time of a time of a time of a time of a time of a time of a time of a time of a time of a time of a time of a time of a time of a time of a time of a time of a time of a time of a time of a time of a time of a time of a time of a time of a time of a time of a time of a time of a time of a time of a time of a time of a time of a time of a time of a time of a time of a time

Xu Mengchang asked gently, politely and aggressively.

Well, in the words of Don Pudding, even if you confirm, you must not weaken your momentum.
