Chapter 883 The Unexpected Person

That's right, Lin Zheng realized that he was too excited and thought about the problem too simply. ↗

However, he also raised his own question: "Aren't we developing p2p technology? We can use this technology on live videos online."

Although p2p technology has been proposed for a long time, IQ's research on p2p technology, that is, peer network technology, was still the idea proposed by Lin Zheng. The purpose at that time was to solve the increasingly huge bandwidth problem caused by more and more icq users' access. It is unfair to say that the p2p technology of icq company is definitely the best. Could such advanced p2p technology still not meet the requirements of live video broadcasting in the network?

But then Benier told Lin Zheng: Boss, what you think is too simple...

"You are right. Our p2p technology is not developed for online videos. If you want to do online video live broadcasts, you must not only consider p2p technology, but also video compression technology. With the technology we are currently mastering, if you start to fully develop p2p-based network video transmission technology from now on, you can come up with reliable technologies and solutions in almost a year, but it is not possible now..."

Although Benier said vaguely, Lin Zheng also understood what he meant: for icq, a huge number of users means huge wealth, but equally, if you want to ensure the stable online of so many users, the requirements for network bandwidth are also huge. The only solution is p2p technology. icq is one of the earliest network information technology companies to research and apply p2p technology, and has also achieved many results. However, for live video broadcasts of online videos, icq, there is no intention to develop in this regard, and naturally there is no corresponding technical reserve.

"If it really doesn't work, you can only settle for the second best." Lin Zheng sighed disappointed and said to Benier: "Lao Bei. After returning, he will increase his research on p2p technology and study it in addition to whether this online video live broadcast technology can be made into an independent project. I hope that Tesla Auto will use online video live broadcast technology at the next new car launch conference... The resolution must reach the VGA level of at least 640*480."

"Okay, I'll make arrangements later." Beniel nodded. He also realized that p2p technology has extraordinary significance for online video. Although the task assigned by the boss is a bit arduous, this is not a bad thing, isn't it?

However, compared with the somewhat frustrated Bernier and Lin Zheng, Waldgard looked calm. When Lin Zheng did not propose live videos on the Internet, he did not expect that he could also use a similar live TV broadcast on the Internet to conduct this smartcity new car launch conference. When the boss suggested that he used videos on the Internet, he was very happy, but he heard Bernier say that the current technology cannot be achieved. Although he was more or less disappointed, he might not be able to say that he was disappointed.

………………………………………

What surprised Lin Zheng was that Ford Motor, one of the shareholders of Tesla Motors, was also very interested in Lin Zheng's plan to broadcast smartcity online. For this reason, Bill Ford also called Lin Zheng specially, hoping to talk to Lin Zheng about this matter.

"Are you interested in network technology?" Lin Zheng was extremely surprised.

"Haha... I'm not an old man who only knows cars and doesn't care about the Internet at all," Bill Ford smiled happily: "Lin, you don't know yet. Ford Motor is planning to launch an online car ordering platform. Users only need to log in to our website and can choose the configuration in their car online, such as the wheels he likes, leather or cloth seats, audio system, engine, lighting system... and then provide the address or the address of the nearest dealer. After the car is produced, users only need to go directly to the nearest dealer to pick up the goods. Isn't it very convenient?"

Bill Ford was very proud, but Lin Zheng was a little shocked!

Automobile manufacturers, led by the three major American automobile manufacturing giants, have long realized customized flexible production. Lin Zheng had known this a long time ago, but he did not expect that Ford had realized the importance of the Internet so early - concepts, concepts are very important...

"It's very good," Lin Zheng smiled after a very brief shock, "Compared to the way in which customers placed orders through dealers, this way of placing orders through the Internet has many benefits for you, right?"

Not only many, but the most significant benefit is that it shortens the turnover and ordering cycle of spare parts. The direct consequence is that according to the calculations of Ford Motor's financial department, Ford Motor can generate an additional 0.1% profit in this item alone.

With just one improvement, you can generate an additional 0.1% profit? Is that great?! No wonder Ford Motor is so concerned about network technology. If you have an idea to easily increase your company's net income by 0.4%, you will also be extremely concerned... Ford Motor's net profit last year was as high as US$20 billion, an additional 0.4%, which is also US$80 million.

After some greetings, Lin Zheng simply asked Bill Ford: "Mr. Ford, you are not just discussing network technology with me this time, right?"

"Haha..." Bill Ford smiled. Since Lin Zheng had named the topic, he no longer circled: "That's right, I have a friend who is very interested in your icq and hopes to hold a part of the shares..."

While talking, Bill Ford looked at Lin Zheng's reaction with interest.

Bill Ford's friend Lin Zheng's heart tightened!

When it comes to influence in the United States, it is hard to say which one is bigger, Bill Ford and Bill Gates, is not worth more than $5 billion in assets and is qualified to be called friends by Bill Ford? Now such a super rich man is actually interested in IQ. There is no doubt that trouble is coming.

He couldn't help but think about it.

But Lin Zheng's reaction was also very fast, and then he smiled and nodded: "I want to hold shares of icq? It's easy to say. Now icq is preparing for listing, and your friends will have a chance soon."

This is just a polite rejection. How could Bill Ford not hear such an obvious rejection? He couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

IQ is preparing for listing, and at most two months left to hide the news of IPO's news from those who are interested. This friend of mine learned about this news and wanted to make a small profit by taking this opportunity, but he didn't expect Lin Zheng to refuse so simply. However, he didn't find it strange. With Lin Zheng's current wealth and influence, if anyone jumped out to him on the eve of IQ's listing, he would basically be beaten out by Lin Zheng without hesitation. It was obvious that he was here to take advantage of others.

Since Lin Zheng refused, Bill Ford stopped talking and said to Lin Zheng with a smile: "A friend who can't help but cannot refuse, but since you said that, we don't care about him... Come and have a drink..."

Bill Ford invited himself here today for this matter? Until he came out of Bill Ford's office, Lin Zheng felt dizzy in his head, but he was more annoyed: such a small matter made it clear on the phone, as for letting him go there in person?

Yes, Boss Lin was very unhappy because he was jealous, so he only realized when the person in front of him greeted him for the second time...

"Hello..." Lin Zheng looked at the old man in front of him in surprise, feeling familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen him at for a moment, and said hesitantly: "Sir, where have we seen him?"

"I am Boss of Stewart Team, Stewart, John Stewart, Mr. Lin, I'm very happy to know you," the old man with gray hair but energetic eyes had expected Lin Zheng's reaction, and he still maintained the posture of reaching out to shake hands with Lin Zheng, and said to Lin Zheng with a smile.

I said why do you think this guy looks familiar? It turned out to be the boss of Stewart, the F1 team. Lin Zheng was a little surprised and hurriedly reached out to hold John Stewart hard: "Mr. Stewart, it's an honor to see you."

It is not surprising to see Lin Zheng, the owner of the Stewart F1 team at the headquarters of Ford Motor Group. The engine of the Stewart team is provided by Ford. This guy has a decades-long relationship with Ford Motor. When he was a racer, he played for Ford Motor. After retiring, he became a technical consultant for Ford Motor. Last year, with the support of Ford Motor, he established the Stewart F1 team with his son.

As a team that participated in F1 for the first time, Stewart's performance was pretty good, and he finished fifth among 11 teams. Driver Ruben Barrichello helped Stewart win the second place in the Monaco Grand Prix. As a brand new team, this result was enough to make John Stewart proud, but, well, how did this guy know himself?

This question was answered soon.

"Mr. Lin, I'm not to hide it. I'm the one who asked Mr. Ford to help you tell you about the title. I think you may have some misunderstandings about me, so I came in person."

"You Mr. Stewart, are you going to buy shares of icq from me?" Lin Zheng looked up and down in surprise. The answer was too unexpected. He thought he was a super rich man in the United States, but he didn't expect that he was the boss of an F1 team.

"Why?" Faced with this completely unexpected answer, Lin Zheng couldn't help but become curious. (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
