Chapter 924 (2/2)
”You are all top experts in the computer field. You will issue a note later. M stands for MIT and s for Stanford. There were 43 people on the scene. Everyone had one vote. The one with the most votes won. ”
Reagan spoke, and no one could say more. This proposal is still very fair. Even if it is unfair, no one will oppose it. That's hitting the president in the face. Unless you don't want to hang out in the United States, you should still give enough respect to the current president.
The secretaries hurried to produce the votes as requested by the president, which required a process. You can take advantage of this time to drink some water, eat some food and relax.
The efficiency of the White House staff was still very high, and the votes were produced in a short time. There are all kinds of equipment here. It's very easy to make small things.
After the ballot papers were distributed, everyone began to vote. Whether to choose MIT or recognize Stanford depends on yourself.
Baozixuan knows that this is very fair to MIT, but the probability of winning is still small. Many of the computer experts who entered the White House today are Stanford alumni.
As expected, Stanford won 29-14. This makes Harry Roland feel very ashamed. Is MIT's computer major so different from Stanford.
Joe Douglas said, ”now that the primary root server has been determined, MIT will automatically get a secondary root server quota.”
He couldn't help being unhappy. After all, he had a computer background from Stanford University. With the strength of the alma mater, graduates also have light on their faces. And it was under his leadership that Stanford University got the Internet primary root server. In the future, the history of the school will certainly leave a strong mark.
Seeing that no one spoke, it was obvious that they had agreed to the resolution. Joe Douglas continued: ”there are five secondary root servers in the United States that need to be determined; We need your opinions to decide everything today. ”
Previously, it was planned to have one in Asia and two in Europe; 6 secondary root servers in the United States. Because of the emergence of black clouds, Asia also got two places. Fortunately, little Watson suggested adding one secondary root server, so that the United States still has six secondary root servers.
MIT gets one secondary root server, which means there are five more for everyone to fight for. It can be said that the real competition has just begun, the computer network has just started, and everyone's strength is almost the same. Don't want to give up, just see who can laugh to the end.
Robert Calvin stood up and said, ”the University of Chicago has made great achievements in the field of computer. It's natural to get a secondary root server. At the same time, Motorola will unconditionally donate a modern computer room and related equipment, and will never hold back the Internet. ”
No one expected that Robert Calvin, who has never been very generous, would make such a statement, and everyone must give face. Besides, other schools don't have this confidence. After all, they don't get any commitment from the enterprise.
Reagan also smiled and said, ”since Mr. Calvin is willing to contribute to scientific research, we should give him this opportunity. We can't let entrepreneurs chill. How do you feel? ”
The president said it was feasible. Who dares to oppose it. Before Professor Leonard could react, the University of Chicago got a place in the secondary root server. This also made him admire Robert Calvin. He couldn't compare his ability to seize the opportunity.
Now there are only four places left, and well-known universities don't want to give up. Harvard University, California Institute of technology, University of Pennsylvania, Yale University, Columbia University, Princeton University, Johns Hopkins University and several branches of the University of California. They are all fighting for each other.
Finally, Reagan had no choice but to continue to vote. However, the voting was relatively complicated. Everyone chose four universities, and the one with the most votes still won.
Professor Leonard was afraid of this decision, and Robert Calvin admired baozixuan in his heart. I just listened to his idea, otherwise the University of Chicago might not be able to get the place of secondary root server. Colleges and Universities Participating in the voting do not have a fuel-efficient lamp.
