On the second day of the Los Angeles riots, although it was discovered early in the morning that Claudia Schiffer and Tina Fey were coming out of the Eric bedroom, but in the face of the riots in the urban area that continued to ferment, several women did not leave. Of course, the cruel eyes for Eric are definitely indispensable, but basically they are ignored by Eric, and they ca n’t poke a hole anyway.
In the morning, the helicopter in the manor returned to Beverly Hills Zhuang and took over a small spot. With the Emma drilled like a small mouse in the villa as a buffer, the atmosphere in the villa also changed Be gentle.
In order to protect privacy, Julia did not bring the nanny together. Perhaps it is to show her motherhood in front of Eric. The five women are very active in taking care of the little ones, but obviously, none of them are good at it. For children with children, let's take Julia. Think about what grades of education Emma Roberts and just knows Julia's have in the same time as the little flying girl.
Although I have planned to leave Los Angeles, the riot lasted for three days, and it did not affect Malibu. Eric also dispelled this idea. I stayed in the villa and left and left nothing. I started to discuss it with Chris on the phone all day. The preparations of the three companies.
At the time of the riot, Chris was recruiting staff for three companies at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in Cambridge, Massachusetts. In the early 1990s, two universities with the most advanced United States computer technology, one was Stanford University, Yahoo and Google The founders of the company are all from Stanford University. The other one is MIT. The famous Internet father Tim Berners-Lee is a professor at MIT.
Chris told Eric that he contacted Tim Berners-Lee himself. Tim Berners-Lee is the creator and promoter of the World Wide Web concept. The so-called World Wide Web is the predecessor of the Internet. Later, the sites on the Internet that started with ‘www’ were all members of the World Wide Web alliance.
Chris said on the phone that Tim Berners-Lee is very interested in the graphical interface browser, but at the same time Tim Berners-Lee is also full of concerns about this project. As early as a few years ago, Tim Berners-Lee and others developed a web browser software with a non-graphic interface, but when he realized that once the web browser was used for commercial operations. It is likely that the network will be torn apart due to problems such as software standards, and eventually the idea was abandoned.
Eric soon realized the importance of Tim Berners-Lee, Tim Berners-Lee is Chairman of World Wide Web alliance. Almost in control of the establishment of many technical standards in the early stage of the Internet. If you can make good contact with this person, or go further and draw this person to your own, then you will make yourself more powerful in the high-tech Internet industry.
Through the introduction of Chris. Eric quickly reached out to Tim Berners-Lee himself over the phone. Facing a professor at MIT, Eric's poor computer knowledge had no room to stretch, but fortunately he could see the future and know the development trend of the Internet industry well The two of them had a very pleasant conversation on the phone. Tim Berners-Lee rejected many of Eric's ideas about the future of the Internet.
The two chatted for more than an hour. At the end, Eric invited Tim Berners-Lee to Los Angeles as a guest. By the way, he talked about his thoughts on Internet Explorer (IE) in more detail. What Eric didn't expect was that Tim Berners-Lee was faster than him. Directly agreed that this weekend will come to Los Angeles, you know, Los Angeles is still in turmoil.
The other party is so eager that Eric will certainly not object. He also specially sent a Firefly Pictures private plane to pick up people in Massachusetts.
Los Angeles riots continue. It is the year of the United States election. Eric estimates that the most troublesome one is Bush. Because of the victory of the Gulf War, Bush ’s voter approval rate is much higher than that of his opponents. great. But everyone knows that regardless of the outcome of the Los Angeles riots, it is destined to affect the popularity of Bush ’s public opinion. Eric couldn't help but think that Clinton had won the United States election with a small advantage in the original time and space, which may be related to this very `` timely '' riot.
The third day of the Los Angeles riot. United States major cities along the east and west coasts have also witnessed sporadic riots, and racial issues have always been the most reluctant United States rulers to face. Therefore, the elder Bush can only publish issues such as 'anarchism is not allowed' in television speeches. Words like "tolerance" say nothing about ethnic conflict.
At the same time. Also on the third day of the riot, a large number of Los Angeles citizens took the initiative to take to the streets and asked the federal government to quell the riots as soon as possible. Governor California Peter Wilson also asked the federal government for help in the name of the California state government. Bush only ordered a large number of National Guard and Navy The Marines went to Los Angeles.
Although the federal government did not send troops until the third day to quell the riots, it was attacked by a large number of media, but in fact many people understand that doing so is also a helpless move by the Bush administration. The riots just started when the public opinion was boiling, because that The incomplete section of the videotape was misleading and believed that the proportion of citizens guilty of the four policemen who committed violence against Rodney King was as high as 90%. At this time, sending troops to suppress the fire is tantamount to fueling the fire. It will only be effective if the people themselves realize that it will only harm their own interests if they do so for a few days.
When a large number of National Guards took to the streets to catch people, Tim Berners-Lee also came to Los Angeles. In order not to leave the influence of playboy to the MIT professor (although this is the case), Eric temporarily sent a few women out, leaving only one Julia. As for the reason, some little guy seems to like it Here, wow wow crying reluctant to get on the bus.
When a helicopter was parked on the Cliff Peak Manor helipad, Eric still held the tearful little Emma in his arms.
A 30 middle-aged man with messy hair and deep eye sockets got off the helicopter and walked towards Eric with a smile, followed by the curious Chris who saw the little guy in Eric's arms.
"I'm so sorry, Mr. Li, the little guy just cried a while before coaxing," Eric held the little Emma in one hand and shook hands with Tim Berners-Lee with one hand.
"Of course it doesn't matter," Tim Berners-Lee said with a smile: "Eric, I didn't expect you to have children anymore."
"No, this is not my child. Actually ..." Eric pointed to the Julia next to him, just talking, and the little Emma who was still sucking his finger yelled, "Papa."
Although this naive voice is still somewhat ambiguous, several of the people present clearly heard what the little guy was shouting. Eric's black line wanted to explain. Little Emma easily stretched his hand towards Julia and made up the knife: "Mama."
It must be Drew, it must be a bad thing done by small girl, Eric clearly remembers what small girl always used to secretly teach the little girl about holding a photo frame these two days. I did not expect that.
Although it is already in the 1990s, Westerners still generally think that illegitimate children are a shameful thing. Many people are reluctant to admit illegitimate children, such as Jobs or something, so the scene is a bit embarrassing.
There was a feeling of powerlessness deep in Eric ’s heart, and he gently patted it on the little girl ’s **** before handing it to Julia, who covered her mouth and snickered. Looking at Tim Berners-Lee with a little contempt in her eyes, Eric knew that the other party must think he was A guy who is unwilling to take responsibility, gave up his hands helplessly: "Well. I am her Papa."
"What the **** is going on?" Chris also came over at this time.
Holding Emma in his arms and shaking, Julia saw the look of Tim Berners-Lee and Chris before taking the initiative to explain for Eric: "Mr. Li, in fact, this is my brother ’s daughter, and his girlfriend gave birth to two children. I did n’t want to raise them, so I adopted them. "
Chris also said at this time: "Oh, I remembered that last year, this incident also went on newspaper, your brother seems to be called Eric Roberts, right?"
Julia nodded.
Of course, Tim Berners-Lee cannot fail to recognize Julia. Hearing the explanations of Julia and Chris, I realized that I misunderstood Eric.
"So, don't stand here, let's go in." Eric made a please gesture, and at the same time figured out how to gesture a small girl that was added to the chaos.
It was already noon. After lunch, Eric brought Chris and Tim Berners-Lee to the glass curtain wall of Linhai and talked about the graphical interface browser. Although Eric gave three plans, Chris only detailed the browser project to Tim Berners-Lee.
Although I was slightly shocked by the endless beauty of the Blue Sky beyond the glass curtain wall. However, Tim Berners-Lee quickly entered the state and talked about the browser: "Eric, I am worried that once the graphical interface browser enters commercial operation and achieves good results, it will definitely attract other software manufacturers to join the competition , Each manufacturer will develop its own network protocol rules for its browser, and the website certainly cannot adapt to all browsers, which will cause the situation of the Internet being divided. The reason why I did not let us design the browser a few years ago The commercialization of the browser software is to take these into consideration. I hope to be able to establish a unified global information exchange network, rather than a scenario where the Internet is torn apart because of different network protocols. "
Eric listens carefully to Tim Berners-Lee, but feels that the other party is too idealistic. In this capital society, if there is a 100% profit, capital can commit any crime, and the future Internet output value will reach trillions of USD , Such a piece of fat is not ideal to control.
Although Tim Berners-Lee has always been committed to free promotion of World Wide Web, the browser war between Netscape and IE still occurred in the mid-1990s. Although the Netscape browser was finally out, but then, the Google browser, Firefox browser, although everyone began to implement a free strategy, but IE has never been able to dominate the world.
Until Tim Berners-Lee finished speaking, Eric asked: "Mr. Li, so much has been said, in fact, you want the graphical interface browser we developed to be free to users, right?"
"Yes, if the graphical interface browser can be free for users, it will definitely increase the promotion speed of World Wide Web," said Tim Berners-Lee, raising his hand around: "Look, Eric, you are already so rich. , Why not do something more meaningful? "
Eric smiled, picked up the coffee pot on the table and refilled some coffee for Tim Berners-Lee, and said: "Mr. Li, I made a movie, so let ’s take a movie. After Edison invented the camera, probably 1895 It was only in 2000 that the first part black and white silent movie "The Gate of the Factory" appeared. It was a short film played at 16 frames per second. Because the technology is very rough, the people in the picture look like puppets. "
Tim Berners-Lee wondered: "Eric, I don't quite understand, is this related to the matter we are discussing?"
Eric made a gesture of restlessness and said, "So after a few more years, long silent movies appeared, and an industry soon formed, and in the 1920s, there were again sound movies, In the 1940s, color movies appeared, in the 1960s, 3D movies appeared, in the 1980s, home video appeared, and we all know that now more convenient DVD technology has also been developed, you think that all the factors that promote this are What is it? "
Tim Berners-Lee is not an old-fashioned nerd, and of course can hear the meaning of Eric.
Eric smiled and continued: "It is the interest, because the interest is driven, the film technology will produce reform and development again and again. If there is no interest-driven, then what we are seeing now is likely to be the same as in 1895. A puppet-like silent black and white picture played at 16 frames per second film. "
"Eric, I do n’t refuse to make profits for enterprises. I just hope that you can reduce some differences and build a unified information interaction network platform that can coexist with each other."
Eric nodded and said: "Mr. Li, in fact, my goal is the same as yours. I also hope to have a unified network platform, but we have a slightly different way to achieve the goal. Way, and I want to be able to monopolize! "
Tim Berners-Lee smiled and said: "Eric, your honesty surprised me a little." (To be continued.)
