The International Media Summit had ended, but it did not die down immediately. Many Chinese were still in a heated discussion. China's rise was too fast.
In their impression, the US or European media have the final say in this kind of International Media Summit. But this time, Hua Xia's company is the Chairman, and the general secretary is Wind and Rain Media's Zhou Kexin.
Since when did Hua Xia become so powerful?
Some people say that the US has the most board seats, and they might remove the Chairman anytime. But Feng Yu had planted a nail in the US. It is not Google, but the New York Times.
Everyone knows that Google is branded with Feng Yu's name. Although Wind and Rain Holdings had been advertising that Google is founded by Sergey and Larry, and everyone should pay more attention to them, everyone knows that Feng Yu is the major shareholder and has the final say in this company.
Sergey and Larry sometimes felt depressed. They were the ones who founded this company and had been leading Google's development.
From the start of the company to getting venture capital investments, to getting listed, from the US to Europe, they had done all these personally, and they did a good job.
But their prestige in Google is about the same as Jobs' prestige in Apple. On the surface, people say that Google cannot do without their hard work, but in fact, people firmly believe that this company belongs to Feng Yu.
They also admit that Feng Yu is the major shareholder of the company and has the most voting rights and shares. Feng Yu's offer to them was too good, and they could not reject it. It is more than twice as good as what other venture capitalists offered.
Also, Feng Yu had promised to support Google and not interfere with Google's operations. He did not even assign a Deputy General Manager to Google, and the management team is all theirs.
But it is a pity that these management team are promoted by Sergey and Larry, and these people worship Feng Yu. There were even some people who planned to use Google as a springboard to work for Wind and Rain Holdings so that they could get closer to Feng Yu.
They didn't have any resentment towards Feng Yu. Feng Yu had given them the greatest respect. If it weren't for Feng Yu's help, how many people would have paid attention to Google? In the beginning, Larry wanted to sell Google and continue his studies. It was Feng Yu who persuaded him to stay and make Google his lifelong career.
Google had indeed become their life's work. It had even become the life's work of many people. After Google got listed, both of them became billionaires. They had never thought of this when they started their business.
Google's development had reached a bottleneck, and it was not enough to just rely on search and advertising. Feng Yu also supported them in developing maps and pulled Google into the HOS Alliance. Feng Yu had also helped to promote Youtubo.
For example, Feng Yu's tweet. In terms of money, many people were willing to spend tens of millions of dollars or more to exchange for Feng Yu's Twitter advertisement. This was because there were too many people who followed Feng Yu's Twitter.
Every time there was a major event, Youtubo would have the opportunity to broadcast it live. This also caused Youtubo's traffic to increase rapidly. Now, it had grown into the largest video website in North America. Millions of videos were uploaded or downloaded every day. Just the online broadcasting rights for movies had brought in a lot of profits for Utubo.
After joining the HOS Alliance, Google started to focus on developing various applications. Web applications, mobile applications, etc., were selling well.
Feng Yu never seemed to care about Google's operations, but he would occasionally give some advice. For example, Feng Yu is telling them to focus on their mobile advertising business.
It was not the traditional PC advertising. Instead, it was from tablets and smartphones. The development of these two products had obviously taken over a lot of the traditional PC market.
Of course, Feng Yu had also asked Google to tackle some of the "black technology" projects he had invested in. By pooling ideas, they could complete some ideas faster and better.
For example, the most mature VR glasses was jointly developed by Google and G-Box, and Google was the main developer.
Google was also guided by Feng Yu, and the door to a new world was opened. They started to invest in some future technologies, and they felt that some of these innovative projects would be successful. As long as 5% of these projects were successful, they would be able to break even. If it was more than 5%, they would be able to make money.
Now, Google was inspired by the VR devices and the black technology projection bracelet that Feng Yu mentioned. They want to create a Google Glass, which will incorporate the mainstream functions and features that will not be outdated in the future into a small pair of glasses.
The R&D cost of this product is not low, but Google does not intend to let Feng Yu invest in it personally. They will invest in Google's name. This way, after the product is successfully launched, the profits will belong to Google, and Feng Yu will not have to give the authorization to another company.
Larry supported Sergey's idea, and the two of them reported the important decisions to Wind and Rain Holdings as usual. After that, they started to set up this research department.
After Feng Yu knew about this, he did not stop them, but he did not encourage them too much either. This is because he remembered that in his previous life, this product was considered a failure. It did not bring any profits to Google, and it was criticized by Wall Street investors.
Because of this, Google's share price even fell.
But Feng Yu does not care. He thinks this product is very cool. Even if not many people buy it in the end, and it cannot even recover its cost, Feng Yu still likes Google's products.
Feng Yu even asked Sergey and the rest if they can make a helmet that has all the functions mentioned in the VR and Google Glass. It can be used to play games.
Feng Yu had read many online novels, and there are games with virtual reality helmets in them. This is much more advanced than VR technology. If it is successful, anyone who owns this technology will be able to make trillions of USD.
Sergey and the rest were shocked by Feng Yu's idea. Neural sensing technology applied to games? Are you sure you are not developing some special products for a special department?
The R&D funds for this might be more than 10 billion USD, and you might not be able to develop it. But Feng Yu said it's fine. He will transfer some of Google's researchers to Hua Xia's side, and the people he poached from other companies, Lenovo Kingsoft, G-Box, etc., will develop this project together.
Even if they can only achieve 10% in the future, it will also open the door to this research. Anyone who participates in this research will be remembered in history, including Feng Yu.
Feng Yu had set up a research center in China called Future Technology. This research center has the highest level of security, and it attracted many people's attention.
