Chapter 1113

When "Microsoft" decided to develop new search engine technology, the battle between "Baidu portal" and "Google" has intensified.

Since the merger of "Baidu portal" and "Yahoo" and the formation of a new "Baidu Yahoo", Google has begun to feel the pressure of "Baidu Yahoo". The global market share of the new "Baidu Yahoo" has leaped to 27%, second only to 54.3% of "Google". Although there is a big gap from the data, Google can't easily deal with it as before.

After all, the past "Google" rivals, whether YAHOO or MSN, have no "base camp". Unlike Baidu portal, there is the absolute headquarters of the Chinese mainland. Its market share is even higher than that of "Google" in the US. The market share of Baidu portal in China is more than 90%, and the market share of "Google" is 74%. This is something that Google dare not ignore. Now, after the establishment of "Baidu Yahoo", the strategy it has adopted is also extremely correct. It aims directly at the Asian market and wants to lay a solid foundation in the local market.

The Asian market has always been beyond Google's reach, and the highest market share in Japan and South Korea is only about 30%. Now "Baidu Yahoo" has launched a new search engine service for Asian users, that is, it wants to drive "Google" out of Asia, and even if it can't, it also wants to reduce its market share as much as possible.

In the face of "Baidu Yahoo" which is similar to the practice of "shutting down the door," Google "is naturally not willing to be outdone. In addition to continuing to consolidate its market share in the U.S. market, it has also increased its publicity efforts in the European market, and launched a new personalized search engine.

The so-called "personalized search engine" is to analyze the limited scope of specific users' search needs, and then expand to other similar websites on the Internet according to the scope of users' needs to give the most relevant results. This kind of search engine service can search out the information that users need to search in the shortest time, solve the excessive redundant information caused by the popular search engine in the past, and avoid the time for users to filter the spam one by one after searching.

The emergence of this "personalized search engine" is undoubtedly quite popular with users. Today's Internet age is an era of information explosion. Tens of millions of gigabytes of data are recorded and sent online every day. In the face of this huge amount of information, players want to search out the information they want, which is absolutely like looking for a needle in a haystack. If you want to find out the information you are interested in, you will often spend a lot of time, which is naturally unreasonable.

After the emergence of "Google" personalized search engine technology, we can save the most time. Although it is still not perfect, it can give users the most correct information in the shortest time, but it has exceeded before.

As for its user popularity, it can be seen from the market share. After "Google" launched "personalized search engine technology", the market share of "Google" has been increasing, and the U.S. market is rare to rise to 80%. In Europe, especially in the United Kingdom, the unprecedented rate is as high as 84%. As for Asia, it has also risen to 36% in Japan, South Korea and other countries. As for "Baidu Yahoo", although it is supported by "Baidu earth", But in the global search engine market, the market share has begun to shrink.

"Larry, you are right. In the field of search engine, technology is the foundation of everything." Sergel brin looked at the latest global search engine market share data table, said excitedly.

In the latest "global search engine market share" data table, "Google" global share has risen to 60%, while "Baidu Yahoo" still maintains 27% of the market share, but the rest of the market share is under pressure, "Microsoft" 6% of the market share, is shrinking to 5%.

Larry Page is also extremely satisfied with the data sheet. If "Baidu Yahoo" is not supported by "Baidu earth", its market share may have been eroded by "Google". But think of "Baidu earth", Larry Page is a little egg pain.

Originally, this should be the market of "Google Earth", but now it is occupied by "Baidu earth", and it was launched one year earlier than "Google Earth" (according to the "Google" plan, "Google Earth" was launched in 2005, that is, next year). This really makes "Google" suffer.

"Larry, do you think we should consider Intel's financing proposal now?" Asked Sergel brin.

Recently, after Oracle and phantom technology jointly acquired NVIDIA, Intel actively contacted Google, hoping to raise funds, become one of Google's shareholders, reach a strong alliance, fight against forest style and open up the market.

Google is extremely cautious about Intel's proposal. Although the financing conditions proposed by "Intel" are very exciting to "Google", it is not stupid for "Google". At this time, Intel wants to finance "Google" and clearly wants to use "Google" to fight against Lin Feng. In the future personal computer battlefield, it uses the popularity of "Google" to fight against Lin Feng. After all, after Lin Feng's acquisition of "NVIDIA", it is not stupid for "Google", It has begun to form a monopoly force in the PC market, which is absolutely intolerable for Intel.

There can only be one monopolist in the PC market: Intel.

However, for "Google", although it is now fighting against "Baidu portal" and Lin Feng, it is only a war between search engines. "Google" does not want to spread the war and drag "Google" into other battlefields. In that case, "Google" is a bit unjust and has the feeling of being shot.

"What do you think, Sergel?" Larry Page thought for a long time, but still hesitated. Let "Intel" take a stake in "Google", not only can solve the financing problem of "Google" in one fell swoop, but also there is indeed an alliance against Lin Feng. Only in this way, "Google" is bound to be dragged into other battlefields.

There are gains and losses, and the stakes are really intriguing.

Sergel thought about it for a long time, and every idea. This decision is too important, will directly affect the future trend of "Google", he can't make a decision easily.

"Larry, I don't think it's as good as this. Let's wait and see how 'Baidu Yahoo' responds and Lin Feng is going to do it. If we can defeat 'Baidu Yahoo' in the end, we will refuse financing from 'Intel'. If we can't, we can only rely on external forces." Sergel brin finally chose a moderate approach.

Larry Page, think about it. It's really the best way at the moment.

At this time, "Baidu - Yahoo" side, in the face of "Google" launched "personalized search engine technology", is also extremely headache. In the search engine area, if the search engine technology is not as good as the other side, no matter how much advertising, how many other services are released, it is not enough.

"Mr. Li, Mr. Yang, this" personalized search engine technology "is so powerful?" Lin Feng asked in surprise.

Lin Feng really doesn't understand it technology. After all, Lin Feng is not a top student. He has no memory of scientists for hundreds of years, no magical robots, and no talent for learning. Lin Feng has only memory, about the next few years.

Robin Li sighed. This "personalized search engine technology" is really powerful, at least 15% faster than the current search engine technology. It seems that this 15% is nothing. After all, the response time of most search engine technologies is within 1 second, which can be calculated in milliseconds. Normal people have no response to this time at all. However, the 15% performance is not only in response speed, but also in retrieval results, which is 15% faster, reducing the error information by 15%, so the gap is very big.

What's more, the reason why this "personalized search engine technology" is called "personalized search engine" is that it will automatically record according to everyone's habits. With the increase of the number of uses, the faster and more accurate the response speed and the accuracy of the search results will be.

"Mr. Lin, we have to admit that in the area of pure technology," Google "is far ahead of us. They are worthy of being the first in the world." Yang Zhiyuan also sighed.

Lin Feng is speechless. Although Lin Feng knew the power of "Google" long ago, it did not expect it to be so powerful that Robin Li and Yang Zhiyuan, the two giants of search engine industry, would be amazed and admirable. Looking at the helpless expression on their faces, Lin Feng really regretted it. As early as I knew, I had to buy more shares of "Google" at the beginning. If it could exceed 30%, there would be no problem. But Lin Feng also knew that it was impossible. After all, I was reborn in 1999, when "Google" had already started. If Lin Feng invested hundreds of millions of dollars in 1999, holding "Google" would not be a problem. But at that time, Lin Feng was just an ordinary poor man. He was just ready to join the Internet bar with his later memory and began to dig out the first bucket of gold in his life.

Three people looking at the sunset, a lonely.

"Mr. Li and Mr. Yang, is there really no way to deal with the technological advantages of Google?" After half a day's silence, Lin Feng asked reluctantly.

The future is the world of the Internet, and in the Internet, search engine is the key to control the Internet. Having a search engine controls the eyes of Internet users and allows them to see what they want them to see. Especially for Lin Feng, if he can control the Internet, his other companies will have the best advertising platform resources in the world. It's not an illusion to build a business empire that never sets.

But "Google" is like a mountain in front of us. If we don't cross this mountain, Lin Feng will be unable to control the Internet and build his own business empire.

Robin Li meditating for half a day, looking at Lin Feng, seemed to have something to say, but it was hard to say.

"Mr. Li, just say what you have to say." Lin Feng saw Robin Li's thoughts, Wen Wen asked.

Robin Li took a cool breath and thought for a moment. After hesitating for a moment, he spoke slowly.

"Mr. Lin, since the merger with Yahoo, as the chief engine architecture engineer, I am responsible for the development of the company's search engine technology. I learned from the Technology Department of Yahoo that they are developing a new search engine technology - vertical search engine technology. " Robin Li thought.

Vertical search engine technology is different from general web search engine. Vertical search focuses on specific search fields and search needs (such as air ticket search, travel search, life search, novel search, video search, etc.), and has better user experience in its specific search fields. Compared with thousands of general search servers, vertical search requires low hardware cost, specific user needs and various query methods.

Lin Feng listened carefully to Robin Li's explanation of "vertical search engine technology" and his eyes lit up. This is similar to "Google's" personalized search engine technology ", which is the killer of" Google's "personalized search engine technology".

"Mr. Li, if you have this kind of technology, why not use it?" Lin Feng asked curiously.

Robin Li sighed helplessly.

"Boss, in fact, our company (formerly referred to as" Baidu portal ") is also developing similar search engine technology, but as with" Yahoo ", we all encounter a problem, that is, in the case of too many users, the whole page may be delayed, dragged, or even collapsed. I really can't imagine that "Google" has been successfully developed, and there is no problem with its current usage. " Robin Li sighed.

Lin Fengyan frowned. Now is not the time to lament the strength of competitors.

"Mr. Yang, what do you think?" Asked Lin Feng, a little restless.

"Mr. Lin, as far as I'm concerned, this new" pure search engine technology "can be improved, but I'm afraid it's very difficult to be listed in the near future." Yang Zhiyuan said helplessly.

Lin Feng frowned.

"What's the probability of a page crash?" Lin Feng asked anxiously.

Robin Li thought about it.

"Mr. Lin, if more than 100 million people use it at the same time, the collapse rate will be 0.7%. If more than 200 million people use it, it will be as high as 1.5%. If more than 300 million people use it, it will be as high as 14%. If more than 500 million people use it, the collapse rate will be 100%." Robin Li said.

Lin Fengyan was startled. It's only 0.7% for more than 100 million people, and it's as high as 1.5% for more than 200 million people. Lin Feng can still accept it, but it's as high as 14% for more than 300 million people, almost doubling. The collapse rate is growing a little too fast. Especially after 500 million people, the collapse rate is as high as 100%, which is simply unacceptable.

"Mr. Lin, this data is the result of my supercomputer simulation. When the number of people reaches a certain number, the collapse rate will rise exponentially, so I dare not rashly launch it. " Robin Li said helplessly.

When Lin Fengwen heard of the speech, he felt like a ball full of anger.

"Mr. Li, I don't think it should be so pessimistic. We can improve it. I believe the collapse rate can be greatly reduced. If we use cloud computing technology to divert users, we should be able to carry more users. Besides, our customers of YAHOO were also 500 million people, and even the users of Baidu portal even Chinese mainland 1 billion 300 million people use Baidu YAHOO search engine, which adds up to 1 billion 800 million people, while the use of search engine services is no more than 400 million. I believe that as long as it is improved, it should be able to be listed. " Yang Zhiyuan said.

Lin Feng Wen said, eyes suddenly lit up, Eagle eyed Robin Li.

Robin Li smells, after a faint look, his face looks happy. Indeed, although the "vertical search engine technology" developed by them still has the fatal crash problem caused by excessive human flow, if the human flow does not reach the critical point of crash, then this fatal problem is equivalent to non-existent.

"Mr. Lin, yes, Mr. Yang is right. It can be improved." Robin Li nodded.

"Yes, please." Lin Feng said expectantly.

Then, in a short span of a week, after the joint efforts of Robin Li and Yang Zhiyuan, led the search engine engineers of two companies, through the joint operation of the network, "vertical search engine technology" finally launched the listing.

After the improvement of Robin Li and Yang Zhiyuan, the new vertical search engine technology and Google personalized search engine technology have almost the same performance, and even better in some details. The only trouble is that although it has been improved, when the number of users exceeds 500 million, the crash rate is still as high as 100%, but before that, the crash rate is only 0.1%, which is quite satisfactory.

500 million people use search engine services at the same time, which is very difficult to achieve. You know, even if China's "Spring Festival Gala", the number of people watching "Spring Festival Gala" is only more than 200 million. Robin Li and Yang Zhiyuan do not believe that 500 million people will use the search engine service at the same time.
