Simon was chatting with the female assistant, and Sophia came from not far away.

Noticing the worry in Sophia's expression, Simon asked, "Is something wrong?"

Sophia stood next to Simon, nodded and said: "The editor-in-chief of French "vogue" Colombe Pringle and I made an appointment to attend this party. In the evening, we suddenly said that we couldn't come because of something temporarily. "paris-match" magazine The side just called, and the 8-page special issue that had been negotiated was cancelled."

There was music in the hall at this time.

The catwalk over the runway begins. This is a performance catwalk, with the theme of Audrey Hepburn's "Roman Holiday" that year, and the actor Gregory Peck, who will be awarded the Lifetime Achievement Award at the Cannes Film Festival, was also specially invited to attend.

Simon looked at the bright green light of Chinese clothing and decorations not far away, and asked, "Is there any more?"

"Claudia Schiffer, Linda Evangelinsta, Naomi Campbell and Christy Turlington, among others, have turned down our party invitations. Also, the party wasn't the most important thing. , I'm worried about the fashion week in September, we may not be able to invite these models to participate in the catwalk."

Simon was not surprised to hear Sophia talk about these situations.

The luxury industry's 'cake' is also limited, and Gucci has regrouped aggressively in recent months, and other luxury brands will naturally feel the threat.

Gucci's recovery in North America has not encountered any obstacles due to the support of Daenerys Entertainment, but in France, where luxury brands gather, Dior, Chanel, Hermes, Louis Vuitton and other local snakes will obviously not allow Gucci, an outsider, to be on their own territory. Call the wind and call the rain.

Beckoning the passing waiter to come over, he brought two glasses of red wine to the two women next to him, and Simon took a glass himself before continuing to say to Sophia, "So, what are you going to do?"

Sophia took a sip of the red wine, thought about it, and said, "If it's just the French side, it's not a big problem."

"You do the media. As for fashion week in September, I just saw Cindy Crawford and Helena Christensen, and if those supermodels you mentioned don't want to go to our catwalk, then It’s impossible for all models to be unwilling to find other people. Moreover, it is nothing more than to increase exposure. At that time, we can invite more stars, the effect is the same, and this aspect happens to be our advantage.”

The catwalk ended, followed by a charity auction.

The auction item is a batch of the latest Gucci satchels that the models carried on the catwalk. The donation will be donated to a charity organization dedicated to solving the problem of famine in Africa. Simon has never heard of the name of this organization. I feel that the direction is right, so I use 20 10,000 dollars for an elegant white satchel.

The charity auction is over, and tonight's party is drawing to a close.

Although some French media temporarily canceled the cooperation with Gucci, many media in European countries still reported the Gucci night event early the next morning.

Simon is very clear about the mission of his mascot. If he only shows up at the party and doesn't bring any benefit to the guests who came to him specially, others will not show up next time. Therefore, some entertainment media also appeared in a timely manner Simon Westeros and so-and-so star had a good talk at the Gucci night party, and the two sides may cooperate.

It's not just a gimmick to release such rumors.

Simon had a similar idea when he was still filming "Batman" in Melbourne.

Hollywood's global expansion over the next few years will inevitably lead to resistance from overseas film markets.

If Daenerys Entertainment can invest in the production of a batch of overseas films every year, it can not only quickly enrich its own film library resources, but also gain the favor of European, Australian and even Asian filmmakers. Moreover, holding a large number of film projects, implicated in the career future of many filmmakers, can also bring a hidden power to Daenerys Entertainment.

Moreover, compared to those movie investors who are smeared and ultimately lost, Simon II's prophetic advantage also ensures that he can pick out projects that are profitable enough.

Daenerys Entertainment is still in the accumulation stage, and Simon is not in a hurry. However, the Australian branch's investment in Peter Jackson's new film, and if it can sign a few more directors this time, is actually equivalent to laying out these ideas in advance.

After completing the mission of his mascot, Simon left Cannes and flew to Geneva, where France and Switzerland meet.

Geneva is the second largest city in Switzerland, and the European Institute of Particle Physics (cern), jointly invested by more than 20 countries, is located here. Tim Berners-Lee was a computer engineer at the institute at the time.

Coincidentally, Simon had the idea of ​​looking for Tim Berners-Lee, and happened to step on a very precise point in time.

According to information obtained by Simon, Tim Berners-Lee first submitted a project proposal to Cern executives in March this year, suggesting that the computers of all laboratories in the institute should be connected through hypertext technology. Once the project Complete, and even further expand to the world.

Tim Berners-Lee's plan was supported by many people, but because cern is a particle physics research institute, the top management did not approve the project. However, Li did not give up. After two months of re-preparing the plan, he was preparing to resubmit his proposal recently, and Simon came to the door.

Simon originally by Tim Berners

A paper published by Li on Hypertext Markup Language found the other side.

Coming to Europe, after Jennifer and Tim Berners-Lee made an appointment to meet, the revised plan in the other party's hand was directly transferred to Simon.

It is sad to say that Tim Berners-Lee, who is respected in the industry as the father of the Internet, has spent a few months in this planning book, and most of the budget is just to purchase a next computer worth $6,500. That's right, the high-performance personal computer that Jobs developed for universities and research institutions after he left Apple.

The city of Geneva surrounds the southern end of the vast Lake Geneva.

As the most livable city in Europe, Simon did not miss Geneva when he bought his property. His residence here is located on the shores of Lake Geneva on the northern outskirts of the city.

Arriving in Geneva on the weekend morning, Simon spent three days chatting with Tim Berners-Lee about ideas for the Internet.

Tuesday, May 23.

After finishing her work in Cannes, Sophia came from Cannes in the afternoon. Walking into the villa living room of this lakeside mansion, she saw Simon and a middle-aged man in his thirties chatting quickly in front of a whiteboard. The whiteboard was filled with all kinds of nouns that she couldn't understand at all. and symbols.

In the living room at this time, there are various books and materials, and two open computers. Although the arrangement of these things is not messy, it also looks out of place with the surrounding luxurious decoration.

Jennifer was watching a printer that kept spitting out data by the sofa.

Sophia noticed Jennifer's figure and roughly understood why the living room could still maintain basic order.

Walking over and saying hello to the female assistant, Simon also saw her arrival, but just gestured with his eyes, and continued to discuss with the middle-aged man.

"Create such a website, which can be used to list the website directories that join the Internet, so that users can see the content of the Internet more intuitively. In addition, we can also provide forum services through this website for users to communicate directly. Of course, we will also More services can be added, such as search, such as communication and so on.”

"According to what you think, Simon, we must continue to promote commercialization, otherwise we will not be able to support the operation of such a website. We have been discussing this issue for three days, and I am not against commercialization, but if so, it will definitely be Competitors are coming in, creating different standards and fragmenting the Internet, which is inconsistent with our goal of connecting the world."

"Anyone with the slightest foresight can see that the fragmentation of the network is not in everyone's interest, and even if that happens, there will definitely be a compromise between all parties. And, Tim, I think we are completely Have the ability to avoid that because we don't have a competitor right now. It's like building a road, if a lot of people realize a goal and start building roads together, there will definitely be many different roads for their own benefit .But now it's only us who want to build this road, if we can get the road fixed before anyone else reacts, and provide a fair degree of free access, I believe that people who are willing to spend the money to build another road should not many."

"..."

"..."

Sophia listened to the conversation between Simon and Simon, while curiously picking up a copy of the information that Jennifer had just sorted out.

Looking down, this is a development plan for a literal translation scripting language. After patiently reading a few pages, I roughly understand that this scripting language is used to increase the dynamic functions of html web pages.

As for what is an html web page, Sophia is also half-understood.

Simon and Li continued to discuss for more than an hour, until the whiteboard was filled with notes, and it was almost evening, and they stopped.

After a formal introduction to Sophia, Tim Berners-Lee left the lakeside villa with a thick document compiled by Jennifer. After three days of discussions, he had confirmed a lot of things with Simon and agreed Simon quit his job to run a new company in North America.

ygritte.

That's the name of one of Simon's soon-to-be-founded web technology companies.

ygritte, Ygritte.

Or, Simon finds it more pleasing to translate "Igret".

After Daenerys, Melisandre and Cersei, Igret will also be the fourth 'woman' under the Westeros Company.

Simon has even come up with a slogan similar to Google's 'don't-be-evil' for the company.

That's right.

‘you-know-nothing! ’

Such a super panacea slogan, there is absolutely no need to remove the slogan just because you want to do evil in the future.

As for the meaning, when the Igreit Company rose, people full of romantic fantasies could always come up with all kinds of reasonable interpretations, and Simon would definitely not make it clear that it was just some red-haired savage blaming her lover's stupidity.

In the determined plan, Simon's Westeros company will invest $10 million and hold 90% of the shares of Igret. As the head of this company, Simon will give Tim Berners-Lee a share of 10%. According to the investment ratio, this 10% stake is worth millions of dollars.

In fact, as long as Igret can achieve Simon's expected goals, although Tim Berners-Lee's shares will be diluted in the subsequent financing process, it will definitely be a future.

Pen very large wealth.

According to the plan discussed in the previous three days, Tim Berners-Lee will then quit his job at cern and rush to San Francisco to preside over the establishment and operation of Igret.

Simon hopes that Igreit can be established in Los Angeles, but this does not leave the company. With its backing in Silicon Valley, this company can more easily obtain the technical and talent support it wants.

The first step after the establishment of Igreat will be to complete the creation of various network standards based on Hypertext Markup Language (html), and apply for a complete set of Internet technology patents in advance, just like Qualcomm's layout in the 3G era. .

Simon does not intend to learn from Qualcomm to build patent barriers to collect money, at least in the early stage of Internet development, he did not have this idea. The patent barrier is built just to be able to take the initiative as much as possible after the rise of the Internet age.

While improving the technical standards, Igreat will also start the development of two softwares, one for web design, oriented to developer groups, and the other, a graphical interface browser, oriented to ordinary users.

In Simon's plan, the graphical interface browser will always be free, and the web design software will be free in the early stage, and may be divided into two types: ordinary free version and professional paid version, depending on the situation.

Earning profits from selling software to maintain the operation of Igreit is also the business model that Tim Berners-Lee recognized during the discussion between the two. It is limited by the limitations of the times. Tim Berners-Lee Obviously, it was unpredictable that Simon's casual plan to create a website directory was the top priority of his plan.

In the original time and space, the most well-known "website directory" in the early days of the Internet was called Yahoo. At the peak of the Internet bubble, its market value exceeded 100 billion US dollars.

Moreover, compared with Yahoo, which declined rapidly after the Internet 1.0 era, Simon has set a sustainable development path for the ygritte portal, instant messaging, e-mail, search engines, the development potential of these businesses, which is not in this world. Probably better than Simon.

Even if Igreit will fall into the ill situation of a large company and cannot flexibly transform in the future, Simon, who can clearly judge the development trend of the industry, can put aside this company and realize the "transformation" of Westeros in the Internet industry through other investments.
