Chapter 21
Brali asked excitedly: "Brother Verus, what is the name of your epoch-making great product?"

Before Verus could answer, Joe interrupted and said, "Call me I PHONE or I WATCH. It's cool, easy to remember, and has a famous name."

Verus thought I used what you will use in the future, and said awkwardly: "I want to use the name of my watch, My Watch, MW for short, and the two reversed letters look good."

Joe shrugged casually and said, "Well, that's a shame."

Larry interrupted Joe's perfect obsessive-compulsive nagging in dissatisfaction, and waved his hand and said, "It doesn't matter what it's called, what's important is the whole set of Internet closed-loop control that Verus said is contained in a small watch, Verus, please tell us again, I always feel that your plan did not explain everything to the end."

Verus smiled bitterly and said, "My big brother, I'm showing it to venture capitalists. If I write too much, can they understand it? And if I write it all first, I'll be in trouble."

Joe said cautiously: "Indeed, as Verus you said, the Internet is a zero-sum game. If the first mover does not make mistakes, it will be difficult for the latecomer to win. An Internet market segment can only accommodate two people at most." players, and the rest can only be sent to the garbage dump and incinerator."

Larry had a regretful expression on his mouth, but he still said, "Oh, let's change the subject."

Verus subconsciously looked around and found that there were no other audience nearby, so he hurriedly said: "No, no, no, we are brothers on the same boat. Whether it is the Arctic Ocean or the Cape of Good Hope, we will work together to live and die together. To you two big brothers and I There will be no reservations."

After organizing the language, Verus said: "Any Internet game that wants to prevent latecomers from joining is nothing more than two things. One creates barriers and the other increases the difficulty of the game. Either you prevent others from entering and cannot bet at the same table, or you Turn the difficulty of the game to hell mode to scare off or strangle anyone who tries to get in later."

Verus continued: "I have several major advantages that others cannot have. First of all, Brother Larry, your Oracle company specializes in database and server support, and Brother Joe's fruit company has a large number of system engineers, and the knowledge of safe, reliable and simple systems. Years of knowledge, although it is not impossible to copy, but it has greatly increased the entry threshold, and I also have some gadgets that I love, whoever steps on it will know.”

Larry laughed loudly and said, "I like this, let's succeed together, let others fail."

Verus said solemnly: "People in 2000 still don't understand the importance of big data, cloud computing and closed-loop. If I didn't want to give venture capital some confidence, I wouldn't write those. In God's time, the closed loop will be completed and the market will be completely closed. Even if latecomers spend ten times and a hundred times as much money as me to challenge, I can easily kill them and make them lose their money."

Larry and Joe listened with gusto, and signaled Verus to continue quickly. Our Shao Wei simply said: "The real Internet era can be achieved slowly, but it will take many years and a lot of time to settle and accumulate. In fact, this The process is like a catalyst in a chemical reaction, if you add an appropriate amount of potassium permanganate, what can be done in 20, 50, [-] years, often takes only three and a half months.”

"People tend to quickly accept more convenient, more comfortable, better quality and cheaper services. After we have traveled by plane to the east and west coasts, fewer people are willing to accept a long journey of 5000 kilometers to waste a lot of time. The advantages of Internet thinking That's it, fast, convenient, low price and high quality."

"Although almost everyone in the San Francisco Bay Area and even the entire North American region can drive, the bus lines are very well developed, but there will definitely be a large demand for short-distance travel. In the past, taxis took over these jobs. It rained heavily on the road and waited for half a day without a taxi."

"If you just need to press the watch on your wrist lightly, and within 5 minutes a car passing by with the same destination as me can take me for a ride, then I believe many people are willing to pay a little less than Taxi fare but higher than the price of public transport, which is an extra income for the driver who takes the passerby, and a win-win deal for the passenger who is eager to get to the destination quickly, he spends a small enough Money does the same thing."

"Whether you are going to the Warriors or the Sharks arena to watch the game, the congestion in the parking lot is often overwhelming. Thanks to the support of our Internet Operations Center, people will not be able to carry wallets or mobile phones or drive in the future, as long as they press the button with empty hands. When you turn your watch, someone will pick you up and drop you off. The cost you need to pay is almost the same as the gas fee and parking fee of your own car. When you arrive at the arena, you don’t need to buy a ticket or queue up. Didi swipes the watch and everything is done, don’t you like this kind of life?”

Larry and Joe were dumbfounded. He was a genius half a step ahead of this era, and a lunatic a whole era ahead. Verus has set the evolution clock of the Internet world more than ten years ahead, and he is no different from a lunatic.

But Larry and Joe on the opposite side are not mortals, they are half a step ahead of most people in this era, so what Verus said has a particularly huge impact on them, and only people like them can deeply understand the implications of this. The profound ultimate meaning of the Internet.
