Chapter 923

Although little Watson came from the rich second generation, his ability is not weak. When I was young, I also experienced various experiences. If the U.S. Department of Commerce had not conducted an antitrust investigation on IBM for more than ten years, IBM's achievements would be more than that.

Baozixuan must ask IBM for such favorable conditions. Otherwise, with the boy's shrewdness, how can he give up so many interests.

Little Watson smiled and said, "everyone is a businessman. People don't talk secretly. It's better to put things on the table."

In fact, Bao's richest man is also very worried. President Reagan is sure to convene a meeting. He really doesn't have much time left. The level of little Watson still belongs to the one that must be passed. Otherwise, the Fugen server may really have no chance with Xiangjiang.

Bao Zixuan: "ARPANET upgrade requires a primary root server and several secondary root servers. Xiangjiang Yulin Institute of technology wants to get an auxiliary root server. Please give convenience to Mr. Watson in this regard. As long as things are done, I'll be very grateful. "

It turned out that I wanted to get a secondary root server. No wonder I was so polite when I saw myself. Baozixuan is an absolute authority in the computer field. He is so optimistic about ARPANET upgrade; Even willing to pay such a high price to get a secondary root server. It seems that IBM should pay attention to ARPANET, at least not to show that it has nothing to do with itself.

Little Watson smiled and said, "I think it's something that IBM won't obstruct; You can rest assured that other companies need Mr. Bao to coordinate themselves. "

He just said he would not obstruct, and did not promise anything else. IBM does not suffer, no matter how you look at it.

After little Watson had a good talk with Bao's richest man, President Reagan began to convene a meeting of scholars and entrepreneurs who came to the White House.

In order to show the importance and respect for technical talents, Joe Douglas presided over the White House meeting. This is not the computer society after all; Let the president of the computer association preside over the meeting in the White House, which means taking over the responsibility of others.

On the surface, ARPANET upgrade is an internal matter in the computer industry, but Reagan is under the banner at the same time. In order to reflect the state's attention to this matter, all experts, scholars and entrepreneurs were invited to the White House. This may also be a cake sharing meeting, depending on how much everyone can get.

The influence of the Soviet Union was growing. Reagan wanted to increase the influence of the United States, so he had to take something different. ARPANET upgrade is a good gimmick, estimated by experts and think tanks; The United States can lead the world through computer networks and show other countries how great America is.

Heiyun group and baozixuan were not on the invitation list, but they wanted to spread the computer network all over the world. It can't be done without the participation of black cloud group, at least not at this time.

There is no shortage of large industrial computers for Americans. IBM can solve all problems. However, the technical patents of optical fiber transmission and multi protocol routing are in the hands of black cloud group. How do networks form without linking these computers.

After receiving a sign from President Reagan, Joe Douglas stood up and said, "I'm inviting you here to listen to your opinions. His Excellency the president hopes that ARPANET can be upgraded to cover more countries and regions. Let the world become closely connected, and the ultimate goal is to connect the whole world through computer networks. "

"I was worried before. Fortunately, through the efforts of all of you here. There are no technical problems. The development of the computer field is really beyond everyone's imagination. "

"The upgraded ARPANET is called 'Internet' and consists of one primary root server and nine secondary root servers. As for whether to increase in the future, it depends on the operation speed and user volume. "

"The primary root server must be placed in the United States. As for the 9 secondary root servers. It is planned to put one in Asia and two in Europe, of which Britain should have one place; The other six secondary root servers will be temporarily placed in the United States. It is appropriate for countries to decide whether to migrate. "

Put a server in the UK and everyone won't have a problem. After all, we all know what the relationship between the United States and Britain is. Now we are mainly striving for another quota in Asia and Europe.

Seeing where everyone was listening, Joe Douglas continued: "what are your opinions or different views on the quota plan of Asian auxiliary to Japan?"

This set the tone and let everyone understand what the White House and the computer association mean. Steamed stuffed bun Xuan's small moves below could not escape Reagan's eyes. After all, this is the White House; It's normal to be monitored.

Most people still show different expressions when they openly want to hand over the quota of Asian Fugen server to Japan. Black cloud is bound to occupy an important position in the upgrading process of ARPANET. Isn't it too much to play without others now.

Others can bear it. Harry Roland is the mentor of baozixuan; I'm sure I won't be indifferent to seeing students bullied.

Harry Rowland: "Your Excellency the president, and your professors; The original intention of upgrading ARPANET to the Internet is to closely link the world together. But where does the link device need to come from? At present, only heiyun group can produce it. "

"And what the Internet is like is unknown. It needs continuous verification and large-scale investment. Xiangjiang Yulin Institute of technology has already established an on campus network, which can be said to start earlier than any university. "

"I have rich experience in computer network. If such an important school is excluded. It is very unfavorable to the early development of the Internet. After all, everything is still in the exploratory stage at this time. "

"The Asian secondary root server should be placed in Xiangjiang Yulin Institute of technology, which has a great impetus to the development of the Internet. At the same time, multi protocol routers and optical fiber transmission can also be better applied, which will benefit the development of the Internet without harm. "

Hearing this, baozixuan was very moved. The teacher supported him at the critical moment. Although Harry Roland is only the head of the computer department at MIT, he himself represents authority. In addition, having someone to help out is better than going to battle naked.

It doesn't make sense to play without baozixuan. Now there is Harry Roland, and others won't say much.

Seeing that someone came out against it, Joe Douglas also knew to bring steamed stuffed bun Xuan. It was Reagan's intention to hand over the quota of Asian auxiliary root server to Japan, and he could not refuse directly.

Gordon Moore knew he had to say something. Now is a good time to make a favor.

Gordon Moore: "what Professor Roland said is very reasonable. At present, he is very unfamiliar with everything about the Internet. Mr. Bao Zixuan has a deep understanding of computers, and has made outstanding contributions in the field of large-scale industrial computers, multi protocol routing and optical fiber transmission. If you can't put the Asian auxiliary root server in Yulin Institute of technology, it will be the loss of the whole Internet. "

Seeing that even old Moore made a statement, Robert Calvin quickly gave Professor Leonard, chairman of the computer department of the University of Chicago, a look. It's obvious that other people can't take advantage of it at this time.

Professor Leonard: "I have carefully studied the campus network of Yulin Institute of technology. It can be said that it has the prototype of the Internet. Many collocations and settings have important definitions for the development of the Internet. Such colleges and universities must not be excluded. "

I didn't expect that Robert Calvin would persuade the University of Chicago to help himself. It seems that the old boy has a good hand. Know that there are many deficiencies in technology, so that professional comments have more practical significance.

Japan and the United States are allies. Xiangjiang wants to return to China. Whoever sits in the presidency will give priority to Japan. This is a political issue. If you can't speak with technology, everything is in vain.

At this time, Reagan also had a headache and had previously made a hint to Japan. Now we have to hand over the quota to Xiangjiang. How to explain it to Japan has become a difficult problem.

As the president of the United States, it doesn't matter if he doesn't give an account, but it's almost that mean to break his promise.

Little Watson also got a lot of benefits. He was good at observing words and expressions. He saw that Reagan had difficulties. So he said, "Asia has the largest population in the world. The purpose of developing the Internet is to connect the whole world."

"You can put two secondary root servers in the past and one in Japan; One goes to Xiangjiang Yulin Institute of technology. "

Seeing everyone looking at him, little Watson also knew that he would offend some American colleges and universities. After all, one more in Asia and one less in the United States.

Little Watson wouldn't make such a low-level mistake. After looking at the people, he said, "you can add one more secondary root server. If conditions permit, even if you add one to the Soviet Union."

"As long as the primary root server is in the United States and the chip and host are produced in the United States, what does it matter?"

Hearing this, everyone suddenly opened up. President Reagan was very satisfied with his proposal.
