Yes, William Jefferson Clinton?Adrian nodded in affirming Claude's answer.
Is there any problem with him?Claude still didn't understand what he wanted to say.
He has no problem, the problem is that he wants to nominate the Albert Gore who he is partnering with.
Adrian thought carefully before saying slowly, "You know, Uncle Anderson has always had a good relationship with former Democratic chairman Cliff Babcock, and I happened to be from him..."
Wow, it happened.Claude immediately whistled.
OK OK OK I deliberately let you be satisfied.
Adrian glared at him and continued in his laughter: I didn't hear much, nor was there anything valuable, except a little, Information Highway!
Information highway?Claude's interest was finally hooked up.
How to say it... Although there are only words about myself, it seems that a window is opened for me, allowing me to see many things I have never seen before!
Adrian's voice became much higher and his expression was a little excited.
If possible, can you explain it in detail?Claude made a gesture.
OK, let me think about where to start.
Adrian tapped his fingers back and forth on the desk a few times, Crow, do you still have an impression of the World Wide Web?Do you still remember the boys we had made fun of in the club before graduation who wanted to join the Brotherhood?One of them often surfs the World Wide Web and has also introduced it to us.
Frankly, I can't remember, although I know the World Wide Web.Claude shook his head after thinking carefully.
It doesn't matter.
Adrian was not discouraged either, so I'll just say it simply. The World Wide Web was very simple five years ago. To use a specific metaphor, it was the building that had just laid a foundation, and there was nothing but the foundation.But five years later, small bungalows began to appear on the foundation.
Please continue, I'm listening.Claude adjusted his position and continued to listen to Adrian's commentary.
I won’t talk about technical things because I don’t understand them very well. What I want to talk about now is its value.
Adrian drank a sip of water to moisten his throat. We all know that they, those guys who like the World Wide Web, are obsessed with the World Wide Web, visit the website, send emails to each other, stay in the dormitory and communicate with people all over Stanford and even the entire Silicon Valley.It is also convenient and fast, not like letters, nor is it as expensive as phone calls and has restrictions.Okay, let’s think about it now. If the whole world was on the same network, they could communicate without any gaps like Stanford students, then what kind of scene would it be?!
spread?!Claude's eyes lit up. He was not a fool, so he naturally understood what this meant.
That's right, spread!
Adrian clenched his fist hard. Think about it, if people from Rome could access the website of the server at any time, and people from Shanghai could communicate with people from Brasilia at any time, what does this mean for the media industry?Yes, now we can only upload and download some text and some pictures on the Internet, but God knows if we can upload and download music on the Internet in a few years?Can you upload and download TV and movies?Can you even watch it on the Internet?This is not an impossible thing. All we need to solve is technical problems. The basis of technical problems lies in hardware problems. As for hardware problems, don’t forget Moore’s Law!
Faced with this surging preaching, Claude couldn't help but reach out and pull his collar.It is undeniable that Adrian's words touched him, and he was also a young man with great enthusiasm.
However, after taking a deep breath, Claude showed a disapproving smile: Your preaching is wonderful, Ed, do you know, I have always missed the preaching scene when you entered the Brotherhood.However, if you are preaching, you cannot prove that what you said will definitely come true...
But this cannot be falsified!
Adrian quickly interrupted his speech, looking at Cloud's eyes full of confident smiles. No matter which expert you ask, they cannot prove that these will definitely be achieved, nor can they prove that these will definitely not be achieved!
Speaking of this, he stood up and supported his hands on the table: Now the topic is back to the previous information highway. Although there are only a few words to say, I believe that if Gore becomes Clinton's partner, they will put this issue in the campaign program.Okay, let's go back to the previous question now, why do we all think that the Democratic Party will dominate?
A few seconds later, the two people who were looking at each other answered: Economic!
The unanimous words made them laugh, and Adrian waved his hand and continued: That's right, although Bush won the first local war outside the Americas that the United States began in the 1950s, he ignored the most important problem in the United States at present.The media's exclamation when the Japanese bought the Rockefeller Center was the best proof. Although the Plaza Agreement solved the Japanese, it could not solve the fundamental problem. If I were Clinton, I would have made a big fuss about economic issues.
He shrugged when he said this. Unfortunately, the election was in 1991. If it were one year in the evening, the disintegration of the Red Empire would add a heavy weight to Bush's campaign. It would be hard to say who wins and loses at that time.
Of course, it cannot be said that Clinton will definitely move into the White House now. God knows that his arrival may change something, but this is not a big deal.
I know what you want to say, Crow!
Adrian glanced at Claude, who was reluctant to speak, and said, yes, Clinton may not necessarily defeat Bush, but as long as he raises this issue in the election, even if the government does not support it, someone will push forward. This is the general trend, and at most it will develop relatively slowly.And Bush's head should not be that stupid. If he is really re-elected, he will inevitably shift his governance goals to the economy.
This is a completely new field, Crow. If the ones I said are realized one by one in the near future, how much will it change for the media industry?You and I know that involving new fields certainly has great risks, but once you succeed, the profits you will also be incomparable to other industries.
Claude moved his fingers and sat on the chair without saying a word for a long time. After a few minutes, he vented: You convinced me again, Ed, I think you should run for president.
Come on, if I become president, I will lead America to hell without any scruples, I promise.Adrian waved his hand, and let the topic be pulled back.
OK, venture capital firm, what else is there besides this?Claude adjusted his position.
Acquisition of a small publishing company.Adrian sat back on the chair, too.
Publishing company?Claude stroked his chin and raised his eyebrows.
That's right, since it's a media company, of course these should be involved, including movies, TV, records, newspapers, publishing, games... Adrian counted with his fingers. In short, all industries related to information.
Speaking of this, he suddenly took out a floppy disk from his shirt pocket and handed it to Claude, then pointed to the computer in his study: These are some popular novels I wrote.You might as well take a look now. Although it has not been completely completed, I believe you can see the value of it.But I don’t spend much time on novels and am not a professional writer, so you may have to find someone to modify and add, and I don’t mind signing the other person’s name at the same time.
ha!Claude took the floppy disk and shook it. Obviously, you came prepared.
Of course, I have spent a lot of effort to convince you to win you over.Adrian said, spreading his hands.
Tsk, it’s really touching!Claude sighed jokingly, turned over and turned on the computer, waited for several minutes before inserting the floppy disk.
It took about a few dozen minutes to Claude roughly browse Adrian's novel.
Viruses and zombies, the female version of Indiana Jones and Cyberpunk, there are so many ideas in your head, Ed.
Claude smacked his lips and turned his gaze to Adrian. However, the first two concepts can only be considered second-rate popular novels at most. Cyberpunk's idea and structure are very good, but if you want to be promoted to first-rate, you have to operate it well.
All are left to you.Adrian shrugged: Don't forget, you are the CEO.
OK, what else, let me say it all together, anyway, I have heard enough tonight.Claude leaned against the backrest, looking like he said, "Come on, I'm not afraid of you."
Adrian couldn't help rolling his eyes: Next is to acquire a small brokerage company, hold shares in theaters, prepare for the empty shell of foreign trading companies, and... Pay attention to the trends of Quantum Fund.
Claude frowned: I understand that it will be conducive to resource allocation in the future; I have no objection to holding the theater chain, as long as I do not control the shares, the government will not cause trouble for us.But why are shell companies preparing for foreign trade and paying attention to the trends of quantum funds?
You know, I just came back from Germany, unified Germany.
Adrian recalled, I went to East Berlin for a walk, and I had a premonition that the red giant in Europe was about to fall.
This is not news, Ed, we all know.If it might have been so huge before the Gulf War that it was scary, now, it is only a matter of time before anyone can see its weakness.
Claude shrugged.
Yes, that's right.Adrian did not deny it, but what if it fell by the end of this year?
Claude's eyelids couldn't help but hop.
Think about it, Crowe, think about what the Soviet Union has done from the late 1980s to the present day.With loopholes, once this behemoth disintegrates and we are well prepared, how much profit can we make from it?!
Adrian stared at Claude without blinking.
