Chapter 1513: 1520

Before the two women got up, Simon had arrived in San Francisco.

In addition to accompanying the women and children here, the next two days are a series of meetings specially arranged with Simon's schedule at the weekend, involving the new technology giants of Westeros such as igrit, tincobell and Cisco.

Simon wants to sort out all the enterprises to make sure he knows them well.

After entering 1999, the NASDAQ index, which still kept rising, had rushed back to a high of 5000 points in July.

On August 6 yesterday, the NASDAQ closed at 5436 points. With the current growth momentum, it is not a problem to break through the high of 7045 points in March 1997 before the end of the year.

Simon doesn't know how high he can finally go.

Then there are specific technology stocks. The most representative igrit company still leads the Nasdaq market. Similarly, it closed on August 6, with a market value of US $713.4 billion.

Not surprisingly, it is only a matter of time before igrit broke through the trillion mark and became the first listed company with a trillion market value.

Facing the fact that Nasdaq has completely stopped following the rising curve of the previous trend, Simon has had a lot of thinking.

At first it was uneasy.

Is it going to be a bigger bubble?

However, after a long time and thinking more, Simon is more and more sure of many things.

At first, I was not confident enough.

Probably, even if you have the advantage of being a person for two generations, you will inevitably feel that you are unlikely to exceed what you used to be. After all, the once new technology trend is also created by a group of the world's top elites.

Nazhi.

What was the NASDAQ index, after a brief break through 5000 points at the peak of the technology bubble in 2000, plummeted for several years and once again broke through 5000 points?

Five years later?

Ten Years From Now?

No, it's 2015, exactly 15 years later.

This time, in just three years, the NASDAQ index has broken through 5000 points twice in a row, and even reached 7000 points for the first time! Not only that, the current wave of market may go to another level, 8000 points or higher is not impossible.

Are these reasonable?

Do you really surpass yourself?

However, the fact is that Simon really did it.

In other words, the Internet wave once accelerated the development of the information industry. The node was 1995, the rapid popularization of Netscape browser and the birth of Yahoo.

This time, Simon directly advanced this process by five years. In 1990, he launched IE browser. At the same time, igrit's portal, which was much ahead of Yahoo in the early stage, was officially launched.

This is actually equivalent to the Internet industry in this time and space. As of 1999, the development time has been nearly 10 years, not just five years.

Moreover, as if one rises from the dead of Simon, many mature Internet industry business models are directly online, no longer the first bubble like the first time, and most of the new technology companies including YAHOO are still in the stage of speculation, and no revenue and profits are sufficient to support the high price.

This time, take the most representative igrit as an example.

The Internet giant, which has actually entered its 11th year, is expected to officially break the threshold of $50 billion in revenue in 1999, and will reach between $55 billion and $57 billion.

Even if half of the revenue share is e-commerce retail revenue that can fill the book data, it is still absolutely terrible compared with Yahoo and other companies in the same period.

Besides, tingkobaier, an electronic product giant that is also close to the concept of the Internet, doesn't mention peripheral accessories such as USB flash disk and interface converter, but the core electronic products such as ICAM and iPlayer, with a total sales volume of more than 100 million in 1997 two years ago.

In the ongoing 1999 year, according to the sales data of the first two quarters, it is expected that the total shipment of main products in the whole year will reach more than 160 million units, and the revenue scale is higher than that of tincobier, which is expected to reach between 63 billion and 65 billion US dollars.

These real and dazzling revenue data, as well as the representatives behind them, are not only the enterprises themselves, but also the strong impetus to all aspects of the industrial chain. The first wave of new technology that was once in the bubble state is incomparable to support the economic fundamentals of the NASDAQ high index.

The castles in the air from the mirage are bound to dissipate, but the high-rise buildings built solidly brick by brick from the foundation can naturally remain motionless.

In the final analysis, as the most powerful country in the world, everyone, including Simon, will inevitably look a little higher. However, the fact is that after the NASDAQ index fell back to less than 5000 in 2000, it didn't return to 5000 until 15 years later. Why?

In fact, the development of various industries in this country is far less courageous than the outside world thinks, but conservative and unimaginable.

The most direct example is a subway that hasn't been repaired for 20 years. There are already one subway.

Perhaps some people can identify thousands of reasons for this, because the automobile industry is developed and does not need it, because trade unions block it, and because private land leads to difficulties in land acquisition. However, these thousands of reasons are exactly the reasons that hinder the country's continued rapid development.

The reason why Simon has been able to do everything at present and even directly advance the development process of an industry for many years is that Simon, as an emerging capital, also has sufficient development power.

At the same time, more importantly, because the Internet is an emerging industry, it does not touch too many interests of too many vested interest classes. On the contrary, more people can benefit together, which can make rapid progress.

Moreover, Simon is becoming more and more confident.

With the advantages brought by two generations and his strong capital strength, Simon knows that he is really better than those who used to be. After all, he doesn't need to grope. He directly knows what to do, which direction to work in, and how to avoid possible obstacles.

Of course, while understanding this, Simon is also aware of this.

As the biggest vested interest of this country, even the world, and emerging industries in the new era, Simon himself may one day become a conservative force. In order to ensure his own advantages, he began to hinder the development of this society.

This is the nature of vested interests.

The nature of capital.

As Simon has long understood, even if he is not conservative as the controller of Westeros system, the management at all levels of the whole capital system will become conservative in order to pursue their own interests and hinder the emergence of competitors.

So, how to solve this problem?

In fact, there are ways.

In the past few years, Simon forced the rapid development of the new technology industry with the power of Westeros. Next, if necessary, Simon can also forcibly drag the gradually conservative Westeros system forward.

This requires a premise.

That is, Simon must maintain absolute strong control over the whole Westeros system.

you 're right.

Be The Absolute King!

In fact, this is just like Simon's improper idea that in this era, it can be called a great evil to be dragged onto the gallows, put off the oil pan by the progressive young people, and finally make a decision: mankind needs class.

African legions of cannibals can easily gnaw off an elephant.

However, if the ants lose the social attribute of distinct stratum and feel that everyone is equal, free and democratic, why should I attack the elephant for the benefit of the whole ethnic group? If I happen to fall at the foot of the elephant and be trampled to death, I am thankful. Why doesn't the queen ant go?

At this point, man eating ants may not be able to deal with an insect.

Taking Africa's harsh natural environment as an example, the cannibal ants that "evolved" to this stage are probably not far from extinction.

Well, treachery!

Hang him!

In fact, it's like the science fiction that Simon once read.

Lose humanity, lose a lot, lose beast, lose everything.

Should we choose to perish in order to maintain noble human nature. Or, in order to survive, choose the animal nature and the biological instinct of natural selection formed over millions of years?

Obviously, the author of the novel chose the former.

Simon chose the latter.

Moreover, Simon does not agree with the description of the great trough in the novel.

In reality, most of the scientific and technological foundations for the rapid development of science and technology around the millennium, such as semiconductors, the Internet, nuclear technology, space technology and so on, were actually produced in the two world wars and the subsequent cold war era, which gathered a large number of social resources to explore the upper limit of science and technology.

Then, entering the "new era", as a public figure who Simon doesn't remember very much said, the smartest brain of mankind rarely chooses to explore the limits of technology, but flocks to Wall Street and Silicon Valley. One studies how to buy and sell short to maximize benefits, and the other studies how to push advertising to users most accurately.

Why?

Because society is open and the world is peaceful, we don't need to work hard for the very fundamental problem of survival.

So technology stalled.

The author's setting is actually a misunderstanding of the limitations and inertia of the times. In the same sentence, it is fruitless to attribute the development of the west to the openness of society and the liberation of thought. So I feel that the progress of science and technology needs social openness and ideological liberation.

Just like another most famous cognition of "fruitless cause", the development of the west is the result of democracy and freedom.

Simon is too lazy to say much about it.

Back to the development of science and technology.

Do humans really not need to work hard for survival?

Science and technology are the primary productive forces.

Many people began to know this sentence when they were very young. However, few people can understand how many sad blood and tears of the development of human history for thousands of years are implied in this simple sentence that looks like a slogan.

In any case, only by constantly exploring the upper limit of science and technology can we continuously improve productivity, and human beings can have enough social resources to ensure the simplest thing, survival! On the contrary, if science and technology stagnate and the existing productivity remains unchanged, social resources will be exhausted sooner or later.

What shall we do then?

Simple.

Just like countless dynasties in Chinese history.

Maybe someone will think, reincarnation is reincarnation.

Reincarnation comes at a price.

What price?

You can check the proportion of population loss after each dynasty cycle in China.

Highest, 80%.

White bones are exposed in the wild, and there is no chicken crowing for thousands of miles.

The cruel reality is that as long as enough people die, the remaining social resources will be enough.

Human beings enter a new era and think they will not experience the samsara they once had. In fact, we are just in the best era of our long thousands of years of historical development. Some fundamental things have never changed.
