Chapter 31 (1/2)

Henry has high hopes for Isearch. He wants to keep up with Google and make all kinds of black technology like it. It's amazing!!!

In order to enhance the competitiveness of global online, it is essential to get a search box out.

Now there are many companies that follow the example and build portal websites online with the ball, because they find that there is a lot of traffic in doing such websites. And the flow is big, which means that it will be favored by more advertisers, so that it can make money. Global online certainly has a strong advantage, but it has also been taken away a large part of the traffic!

For example, AOL also began to do portal!

Due to the sluggish development of American financial network, Steve case had to rethink and reposition AOL. By studying the development mode of global online, Steve Case believes that portal network will be a major trend of the Internet in the future, so he resolutely transformed the U.S. financial network. After some revision, the establishment of the United States online portal, and the United States financial network is just one of the sub sites!

It's not only AOL that does this. There are at least four or five websites that Henry knows.

But now only global online and AOL do the best. Global online accounts for 76.5% of the market share, AOL accounts for 15% of the market share, and the remaining 8.5% of the market share is shared by other portals!

In order not to let AOL and other websites gobble up food, Henry decided to use his trump card as soon as possible to make them lose and even embezzle them!

”Search box” this artifact, it is time to appear!

Isearch, you'll know!

The slogan ”I'll find out if I search”, Henry made it the most classic and familiar sentence on the Internet!

Henry wants Isearch and global online to go hand in hand and become Internet giants!!!

In the past, Yahoo declined because it lost to Google in search. Portal alone has no core competitiveness. You can do it, and others can do it. But now with Henry here, global online can not only work closely with Isearch, but also develop more functions that can make people sticky, such as twitter. Global online with Twitter, you can have an invincible position!

Henry has a simple understanding of the affairs of other companies. He is now wholeheartedly engaged in the development of search company!

However, in any case, Henry should pay more attention to the listing of Dell.

On July 30, Henry and Michael Dell went to NASDAQ. I talked for a long time on that day, mainly about the development route of Dell after it went public. Michael Dell intends to carry out the global layout, which Henry agrees with. However, Michael Dell also revealed that he is ready to enter the server, which makes Henry's egg ache. Isn't this about robbing Noah's Ark for the cake?

Noah Ark is not a listed company and does not need to explain anything to the outside world, including the company's financial situation or shareholders' members. Naturally, Michael Dale didn't know that Henry was actually behind Noah's Ark!

In a previous life, Dell was a successful server company.

Henry was helpless and said to Michael Dale, ”Michael, I'm actually a major shareholder of Noah's Ark! If Dell wants to be a server, I think it's better to take a stake in Noah's ark, so that the cooperation between the two sides can produce the greatest value! ”

Michael Dell was very surprised, how feel with the Internet related place, Henry can get in. Michael Dell could only express his deep admiration. For Henry's suggestion, Dell thought about it carefully and finally agreed. Now, in addition to developing web servers, Noah Ark has also developed application software servers, database servers, etc., which seems to be the overlord in the server industry.

Although IBM has started to be a server, it is still a step behind Noah's Ark. However, IBM has a strong foundation, so it is not impossible to catch up. If Dell wants to be a server, it must start from scratch. If it wants to compete with Noah Ark, it will be a delusion for several years! Now you can take a stake in Noah's ark, which is the best.

However, although Noah Ark is not listed, people in the industry are very optimistic about it, and investors are also very keen on it. According to the evaluation of relevant professional evaluation institutions, the total market value of Noah Ark is conservatively estimated to be US $1 billion!

It is impossible for Dell to spend money to buy shares of Noah Ark. The only possible way is to exchange shares. Henry and Michael Dell first reached a stock exchange intention, and the specific situation will be discussed after Dell's listing.

On August 1st, Dell went public!

Dell's development speed is obvious to all. In three or four years, it has created a mythical sales performance with a sales scale of hundreds of millions of dollars! In the prospectus, Dell wants to set up branches all over the world to expand its scale, and then there are a lot of catchwords and development strategies that touch the excitement of investors, such as building a huge processing plant, insisting on direct selling, reducing the profits of middlemen, adhering to the customer-oriented market strategy, and shouting ”diversified” hardware development, Anyway, it's all kinds of brag, but these undoubtedly add a lot of points to Dell!

In the prospectus, Dell's shareholder members actually have today's Internet giant Nicholas group company, and this adds to the cake for Dell, it's hard to think about fire!

After listing, Dell's share price soared, shocking NASDAQ!
