Chapter 251 Global Online

"John, are you sure there's no problem? That network system in Dream World can really meet the needs of finance. This is no small matter. You should know how big a sensation it will cause once it starts!"

"Of course, no problem. If it weren't for tonight's event, I would already be back in San Francisco, making arrangements for tomorrow's press conference. Although Nvidia has only been established for a short time, its research in the chip field has already reached the forefront. I believe Morgan has his own information on this and should know it. With the advent of the server, the Dream World system is now completely complete!"

"I never imagined that Dreamworld and Nvidia would develop so quickly, and their R&D speed would be so astonishing!"

"Actually, we have to thank Morgan for their help. Without Morgan's help in acquiring Motorola's semiconductor and chip research, and without the power of Bell Labs, Nvidia and Dreamworld could not have achieved such rapid progress. Of course, this is also partly because they focused on research rather than other things, which is why they made such amazing progress. If Intel and others could also put their energy entirely into R&D, they would have achieved the same speed of development. Unfortunately, they put their energy into mass production, which naturally affected their own R&D."

“That makes sense, but unfortunately it’s not something we can decide.” Morgan sighed, feeling sorry for those guys in the US semiconductor industry. Even a small fry like John saw things so clearly, but they failed to grasp the situation.

Are American semiconductor companies really failing to see things clearly? No, they're just too greedy, always wanting more profit, forgetting what the core of a high-tech company is: research and development, technology, and patents.

Morgan quickly continued, "John, how do you plan to promote this network system? Do you need Morgan's help?"

"Having Morgan's help is good. As for promotion, Dream World and Bell Labs have already established a new company, an internet company called 'Global Online,' to realize our communication network project and build our own network channel in the United States! If the construction of the network channel is completed, perhaps at that time financial transactions will be inseparable from our network system."

"Hiss!" At that moment, both Morgan and Jimmy gasped. They both understood the immense impact and profits that success would have on the entire financial industry. Dream World was even more promising than they had imagined. John had been brewing this trump card, no wonder this little fox had been so unwilling to give up on those guys in Japan. Without their involvement, his interests would likely have been significantly affected. Even Morgan wouldn't be willing to pay a higher price.

“John, you’ve only been in charge of Bell Labs for a short time, and you’ve already achieved such amazing results. It’s truly remarkable. It seems that such a laboratory is best suited to be in the hands of an industrialist like you.”

"Actually, this isn't my achievement. It was part of Bell Labs' original plan, but they had a different focus. I extended this research to finance and integrated it with the network system of Dream World, which led to the current result. This is just the beginning. Because computers have limited capabilities, widespread adoption is impossible. Our initial goal is to reach financial institutions and universities. As computers advance further, we will increase the pace of adoption. Perhaps at that time, the whole world will be under the influence of our internet."

Bell Labs possessed considerable wealth, but unfortunately, it was rendered useless by those who didn't know how to utilize it. However, things changed completely under John's leadership. Through John's arrangements and the collaborative efforts of Bell Labs and the Dream World, the current network system emerged, which is the prototype of the Internet.

Ambitions—at this moment, Morgan and Jimmy saw immense ambition in John, and the prospects he painted astonished them. Leaving aside everything else, the orders from financial institutions and universities worldwide alone amounted to a staggering fortune.

"John, can your servers, minicomputers, and professional workstations keep up with the expansion of sales?"

"That's no problem at all. If this issue hadn't been resolved, why would I have made such a decision? ASUS in Taiwan is Nvidia's OEM, and it can fully meet Nvidia's needs, so it naturally won't affect the expansion of Dream World."

"John, to what extent has your Global Online achieved?"

"It's been more than half a year, but it's been losing money the whole time, so nobody has noticed its existence. Now it has completed the network layout on the East Coast and West Coast, and is now expanding at full speed. Perhaps it won't be long before the entire United States has completed the network layout!" When John finished speaking, Morgan was dumbfounded. He never expected that John had done so much right under his nose. He couldn't help but turn his gaze to Jimmy. How could this guy be so oblivious to such a big thing?

"John, isn't Global Online the company that's been expanding like crazy across the US under the guise of a cable TV network?" At this moment, Jimmy realized the key to the problem. Half a year ago, John did indeed have a new communications company, but it wasn't marketed as an internet or high-tech company; it was a cable TV network.

"Haha, you figured it out. That's right, that's it. Actually, it can't be said to be a scam. Global Online does have television network communication capabilities. It's just that we are also developing the Internet while we are developing cable television."

Cunning and treacherous! That's Jimmy's opinion of John now. This little fox has pulled off a elaborate scheme, deceiving everyone. Everyone originally thought that the telecommunications companies were cooperating with Legendary Entertainment's plans at the television station, but they never expected that such a secret was hidden.

“John, you’re too cunning. If you hadn’t brought it up yourself, no one would have guessed that you had already made comprehensive plans. And this company is probably not just what you said, with a presence on the East and West coasts. As far as I know, they’ve almost completed their coverage of the entire United States. No wonder you spun off those cable TV companies; you were fully prepared from the very beginning.”

"That's right. I made comprehensive preparations from the beginning, but I don't know if they've done what you described. After all, I've only been back in the US for a short time and haven't had a chance to inquire about this yet!"

Jimmy, Morgan, and the ladies all disbelieved John's words. How could John not understand such a massive project? Who would believe that with the Dream World's network system already completed, the telecommunications company's layout wouldn't be finished? Moreover, John's company not only acquired the television network but was also constantly acquiring other television networks. Under the guise of maintenance, they had already been working on it for who knows how long. The six months that was supposed to be the time it took for Global Online to be established was not the time John had spent planning.

"John, give me the truth. How long will it take for Global Online to complete its network deployment in the United States? What stage are your tests at?" At this moment, Morgan directly asked John about the network deployment and the testing of the network system. He didn't believe that John would know nothing.

“John, stop hiding it. Although Universal Online was only established six months ago, as far as I know, after you completed the acquisition of Universal and NBC, you have been improving your cable television network and have paid a considerable price to maintain the lines. These are probably part of your strategy!”

"Alright, since you all know, let me explain. Actually, the network infrastructure in the United States is basically complete. At least in major cities, the network has been established. As for remote areas, there's nothing we can do about it; the investment is too large. We can't invest a lot of money for just a few people. As for testing, there are basically no problems. The system that Hurricane invested in is connected to Dream World and Bell Labs, so you can say that there are no communication issues between them."

"So you've completed all the testing. No wonder you're so confident and don't care about Rockefeller's financing demands. It seems Dreamworld and Nvidia's market value will be even higher than before. If those old guys are still preparing according to their previous plans, they won't be able to get enough shares."

"This is not my fault, it's their own problem. I already reminded them, and their lack of attention has nothing to do with me. It's their own fault for not being well prepared. Besides, they were the ones who kept urging me to raise funds this time, it's not my problem!"

Although John was telling the truth, Morgan and Jimmy were extremely heavy-hearted, because Morgan's own preparations were probably insufficient. If they really launched the fundraising as planned, they would have a hard time competing with those guys from Japan, since their own preparations were not adequate.

It has to be said that John's actions this time were a huge shock to them, shaking their very souls. This little fox's scheming was truly terrifying. From the acquisition of Universal and NBC television networks, he had been laying the groundwork all along. This guy's expectations for Dreamworld and Nvidia far exceeded their imagination. Moreover, this guy had already laid out his plans for the internet from the very beginning. This kind of cunning and ruthlessness is not something a young person should possess.
