"How about it, have the test results come out now? If not, then we can at least send out the first quarter financial report first. I believe we can still calm some people's hearts."

Carson looked at Kaos who came out of the R&D department and asked eagerly.

As the CEO of the company, Carson is the most anxious person about the current situation of Google. Especially since his interests in it are not small. The billions of net worth that could have entered the Forbes list before has now disappeared and only the appearance has disappeared.

There are just over 300 million left.

If nothing changes yet, according to the current situation, his net worth will be further reduced. Naturally, there is no room for Carson not to worry.

"Haha, I told you to sell some of your stocks before, but you didn't want to wait for them to rise again. Now you must regret it."

Although Carson is considered a partner and a subordinate, Kaos still gave him a reminder before the stock market crash, but the other party did not really want to sell, especially since he knew very well that the company's performance and benefits had been rising.

This made him even more reluctant to sell the few shares he had.

Kaos naturally couldn't say much about the relationship between the two, and it was even more impossible for Kaos to sell her shares without asking Lin Yifei like she did.

"I will definitely consider your reminder seriously next time, but now it's about what we should do."

Carson smiled bitterly. When the stock market crash occurred, although he actively dealt with some stocks, the market environment at that time was no longer very good.

So in the end, he only traded 300,000 shares for tens of millions of dollars. After that, the stock market continued to fall, and the price made him heartbroken and no longer wanted to sell.

"Haha, the first five can be launched directly next week. I believe that with the emergence of YouTube, our pressure will be greatly relieved.

At the same time, Google Mail and Google Music will also be listed simultaneously. When coupled with the profit performance of this year's first quarter financial report, this series of good news should restore the stock price a lot."

He reached out and patted Carson on the shoulder. Seeing the eagerness in the other person's expression, Kaos opened his mouth to explain.

How could Kaos not let go of a large segment of Google's industry like YouTube in his previous life? Naturally, research and development had already begun.

Even including Google Mail and Google Music, they were basically completed a year ago, but Kaos kept suppressing them and did not allow them to enter the market. At the same time, they also blocked the information internally.

Within the company, Carson was responsible for the specific management of the company, while Kaos was fully responsible for the R&D department, so even Carson hid this news.

All this is for this time. Kaos has already known about the Internet bubble. Naturally, Kaos has to prepare early and work hard to recover as soon as possible after the stock market crash and make rapid strides forward.

"Huh, okay."

Carson breathed a sigh of relief. Although it would take some time, at least it was a good direction.

After patting Carson on the shoulder again and comforting him, Kaos walked towards his office upstairs.

The release of three products at once this time can be said to be a rare big move by Google.

Google Mail is easier to talk about. After all, this is not a unique business. There are many kinds of mailboxes on the market. There are no major changes to Google Mail, except that the page is cleaner.

The whole thing is just a supplement to Google's business.

But YouTube and Google Music are a bit complicated. They are not simple websites, but developed software. They are also two major projects for Google's future business.

Among them, YouTube is not bad. Some are like short video websites of later generations. They upload their own videos to attract viewers and make money from advertising.

However, there will be quite a few copyright issues, which need to be dealt with step by step.

Fortunately, YouTube has already provided a solution in its previous life.

Moreover, YouTube is just a sharing platform. As long as it actively handles infringements, there is nothing the copyright owner can do. Naturally, copyright processing on YouTube is not that urgent.

But Google Music is different. The Google Music developed by Kaos is largely based on Apple's iTunes, and has been developed to the level of iTunes 4.0. It has an exclusive music mall. It is foreseeable that after this product is launched, it will

The revenue and buzz that will be gained.

Because of this, Google Music will be more careful about copyrights and will not negotiate cooperation with major music product companies. It will be impossible to open the function of the music mall.

However, such negotiations are obviously not something that can be resolved in the short term, and Kaos can only plan to conduct negotiations while going public. This also indicates that Kaos will be involved with record companies for some time in the future.

In fact, on YouTube, Kaos also has the idea of ​​​​cooperating with Hollywood and TV stations to upload movies and TV shows and make money for a fee.

However, the amount of money needed to spend is really too huge. You must know that the four major domestic video platforms in later generations have always been in a state of loss due to various TV series and movie copyright reasons.

This is because domestic competition in this area is not very strong. But in the United States, if you want to obtain the copyright and use it for broadcasting on the Internet, your biggest competitor is the video tape company.

After Hollywood movies were taken off the shelves in theaters, they all turned to the video tape market, and the revenue from this accounted for a large proportion of a movie.

Under such circumstances, if Kaos wants to compete with video tape manufacturers for film sources, it will probably cost him billions of dollars every year, which he cannot afford.

So all this needs to wait. When the newly grown young people lose interest in products such as video tapes, and turn to the more convenient online viewing, then it is time to buy the copyrights of movies and TV series and make money by playing them on YouTube.

.

However, without the opportunity to make money from movie and TV series copyrights, it is not a big problem for YouTube today.

Google is now very familiar with the previous model of making money through click-through rates for online search ads. When the time comes, all it takes is a step-by-step implementation.

At the same time, in terms of advertising costs, Kaos is also willing to share part of it directly with video bloggers, and part of the commission will be taken by Kaos’ platform. Under this model, the richness of the platform is not a problem at all.

It is also obvious that the broad prospects for the future can be seen at a glance.

At least Kaos estimates that among the three new software, YouTube will definitely be the main force in the early stage. It will also cause the market to boil immediately after its listing, becoming the main reason for the recovery of Google's stock.

Then came google music.
