Giant of the times

Vanessa had already called Larry Page and fully expressed what Li Zetian meant.

Larry Page was shocked after hearing this!

“Oh my god, at least 10 data centers need to be built, and the investment budget for each data center ranges from as little as 1 billion US dollars to as much as 5 billion US dollars. This, this is amazing, I can’t believe it!!! Ms. Vanessa , is this true?" Larry Page couldn't help but ask.

"Mr. Larry Page, of course this is true. The umbrella company will soon transfer the money to Google's corporate account. Your top priority is to choose a suitable place to build a data center." Vanessa said.

After hearing this, Larry Page's little heart was beating excitedly.

"Oh, by the way, Mr. Larry Page," Vanessa suddenly said, "Please check your email tonight. Mr. Li will write down his specific ideas for building a data center in it."

Larry Page nodded and said, "Well, okay, I get it!"

After the two ended the phone call, Larry Page danced in the office. At the same time, he pondered in his heart that such a huge investment was really unimaginable. What on earth did Mr. Li want to do?

"I'm really looking forward to Mr. Li sending me an email tonight!!!" Larry Page's eyes sparkled with curiosity.

After a while, Larry Page returned to his seat, turned on his computer, and notified all Google employees of Li Zetian's decision to invest in building a data center by email. In this low-water Internet winter period, Li Zetian's decision was undoubtedly It’s an uplifting medicine!

Not long after the email was sent, cheers erupted at Google, with employees shouting excitedly, high in spirit, and full of hope for the future!

That afternoon, as soon as Larry Page left the company building, a large group of media reporters suddenly chased him, pointed their "short guns and long cannons" at him, and rushed to ask questions.

"Mr. Larry Page, does Google really have plans to invest in building more than 10 large data centers? I heard that the investment budget for each data center is at least US$1 billion?"

"Mr. Larry Page, please don't leave, please accept my interview..."

"Mr. Larry Page..."

"..."

Larry Page was very helpless. The reporters blocked him like wolves and leopards and couldn't get out at all.

"Don't get excited, everyone. As you know, Google does have this plan! But I don't know the specifics. This is Mr. Li's decision. But please rest assured that Google will hold a special meeting later. Press conference, tell me the details! Well, everyone, don’t be stuck in the crowd, let’s disperse.” Larry Page said loudly.

When the reporters heard this, they dispersed one after another. Although they didn't get much information, it was enough!

Google is really going to spend huge sums of money to build more than 10 large data centers! ! !

Now that we are in the midst of an Internet winter, which Internet company is not struggling and trying to shrink its development as much as possible? This move by Google is really shocking.

That night, the news that Google was going to build a large-scale data center was like a storm, sweeping the world and causing a huge sensation, especially in the industry and investment circles, which had a huge impact.

Internet companies are extremely excited and seem to feel that the spring of the Internet is coming...

The next day, as soon as the Nasdaq stock market opened, the stock prices of almost all Internet technology companies soared!

At the same time, Microsoft, Amazon, Galaxy Network, TripAdvisor, Yahoo and other companies held press conferences one after another to announce that the company would repurchase shares.

As soon as this news came out, the stock prices of Internet companies continued to rise, and investors were jubilant and smiling.

Senior Wall Street analyst John Cowper said: "From the analysis of Nasdaq's stock market trends, it seems that the Internet winter period has passed, and a new Internet era has begun to arrive!"

Within a week, the Nasdaq Composite Index rose by 1,200 points, an astonishing increase, breaking the historical record!

Investors began to be optimistic about Internet companies again, setting off an Internet investment boom again.

At this moment, the most shocking news is that Google plans to build more than 10 large-scale data centers.

Larry Page had already read the email Li Zetian sent him. He was shocked at the time. The content written in the email was completely beyond Larry Page's imagination.

“What a genius to come up with this!!!”

"Big data analysis!"

"cloud computing!"

"Cloud storage!"

"Various cloud services..."

Li Zetian's various whimsical ideas have already made Larry Page, the founder of Google in his previous life, deeply involved and unable to extricate himself.

After studying Li Zetian's emails, Larry Page couldn't wait to build a large data center to realize Li Zetian's idea.

Shortly afterwards, Google held a press conference and officially announced that it would build 10 data centers. As for why, Larry Page would certainly not announce it to the public. This is a commercial secret. However, some things can be said, such as building a data center to improve the speed and accuracy of Google searches.

In the past, when users searched for keywords, Google usually visited other servers and fed back search information to the users. If Google built data centers, it would be different. First, the data center can provide powerful computing resources. Second, the data center can also store huge data. The Google search engine can quickly filter out relevant information from its own data center. Therefore, with the data center, Google search is not only fast, but also accurate, which greatly improves the user experience, thus making the Google search engine dominate the market!

In fact, just after Google announced the plan, several search engine companies across the United States went bankrupt.

…

After more than a month of preparation, Google selected six cities to build a data center.

Larry Page then called Li Zetian and reported: "Mr. Li, based on the needs of data processing, we first selected to establish a large data processing center in Los Angeles, New York, Hong Kong, Paris, London, and Brazil. Among them, Los Angeles Data centers in Hong Kong, Hong Kong and Paris have relatively large investments.”

Li Zetian had no objection to the selection of these locations and said, "The funds will arrive soon. Don't worry about that. But I have to remind you that we need to build an advanced data center and have the ability to develop sustainably." data center. When building a data center, you must pay attention to problems such as insufficient power supply capacity, inability to achieve online expansion, local hotspots caused by poor air supply and return to the computer room, and huge energy consumption in the data center. These problems directly affect the availability and reliability of the data center. This greatly shortens the normal life cycle of the data center."
