Chapter 367 The Clown Warms Up the Scene

Although a bombshell announcement is scheduled for September, only the staff on Lanai Island currently know what kind of bombshell it will be. Even Alan Mulally and Cook don't know the specific content of the announcement, so they can only start building secrecy.

Knowing the inside story, Ellison spontaneously mobilized all his resources to announce that Chen Yiran would hold a world-changing press conference in September.

He strongly advocated that Apple postpone its phone launch event that month, or even cancel it altogether, to avoid becoming a stepping stone around the time of Aurora's launch.

All the major and minor shareholders of Aurora Group could sense that Ellison knew some incredible news, and they all asked Chen Yiran for details so they could prepare accordingly.

Chen Yiran had no time to pay attention to them; time was too tight. He refused all requests to visit and devoted himself wholeheartedly to his research in seclusion.

Apple didn't react much, but Bain Capital and Chase were still a bit annoyed. Although their previous investment in SpaceX looked completely worthwhile now, in retrospect they had clearly overpaid. Chen Yiran was becoming increasingly willful.

They were a little embarrassed. Normally, they would have just expressed their dissatisfaction, but Chen Yiran was notoriously stingy, so they had to be more careful.

At that very moment, Larry Ellison, the famous maverick of Silicon Valley, did something that left the whole world speechless.

He sent an email within the company and simultaneously posted it on Twitter, publicly declaring that he was actually not young anymore and wanted to follow Steve Jobs' example by handing over the company entirely to Chen Yiran.

It's not that we're hiring Chen Yiran to manage the company; we're giving the entire company to Chen Yiran for free. All Chen Yiran has to do is provide some retirement funds.

He took it very seriously, directly hiring a lawyer to draft a gift contract, signing it, and handing over the Oracle Bone Script to Chen Yiran.

This incident eventually blew Chen Yiran out of the lab. He was the type of person who responded better to gentle persuasion than force, and he couldn't do anything about Ellison's shameless attempt to curry favor.

He had no choice but to announce on Twitter that he would accept the gift, but would give back some shares of Aurora Group in return. Then, quite formally, as the new major shareholder of Oracle, he demanded that Ellison not retire for the next thirty years and that he should work as hard as possible as long as he lived.

These outrageous actions left many people puzzled. Many said there must be some conspiracy involved, but they couldn't quite put their finger on it.

But regardless, Aurora Group practically dominated all the headlines throughout August.

At this point, Google and Nvidia stepped forward, holding a grand launch event in Australia on August 28.

They released their product before Aurora to gain an early advantage.

A farm outside Warwick, Queensland, Australia, is not a typical choice for tech companies to hold product launches.

Google chose this location primarily to showcase their latest drone technology.

That's right. Google's current strategy is to learn from Aurora in every way. Whatever Aurora does, Google does too.

In terms of drones, they cannot produce large agricultural drones, and currently they are unable to enter the military industry sector.

In many parts of the United States, Amazon and Walmart have already adopted Aurora Group's drones for logistics delivery, so they can't squeeze in.

Ultimately, they decided to try and capture the Australian market, which is sparsely populated and offers promising opportunities for drone delivery.

Aurora Group didn't come here because the profits weren't enough and the production capacity was insufficient, which benefited Google.

The press conference went quite well. Astro Taylor, the head of Google X, who is internally referred to as the "Captain Moon Lander," demonstrated thirty supply drops using Google drones, delivering dog food, first aid kits, chocolate bars, and water.

They announced that they would deploy drones throughout Australia, allowing all businesses to submit shipping requests based on standard online cargo dimensions, enabling fast delivery of goods to customers.

The man in the yellow jacket took to the stage midway through the event and explained how Nvidia, Google, and UMC collaborated to begin mass production of Tensor AI chips, which will be rolled out to the market starting in September.

The climax came when the CEOs of more than a dozen companies took to the stage together; these were all companies that had adopted the Google framework to begin AI training.

In addition to the eight companies from Europe and the United States, Baidu, Tencent and Alibaba from China are also on the list, along with three companies from Japan and South Korea.

Google's Eric Schmidt, along with the man in the yellow jacket and Morris Chang, took to the stage last. He said confidently, "I believe that the underlying framework of AI is a fundamental thing and should not be monopolized by one company!"

If a company possesses cutting-edge technology in this area, it should, in the spirit of the internet, share it to promote the improvement and development of the technology!

Google is not the kind of company that stands still. Companies on site learn from each other, share with each other, and compete with each other, ultimately creating better technology!

I announce that we will jointly launch the Future Intelligent Network Initiative, and we will become better AI technology to serve people.

Google's launch event was quite successful, and all the companies involved saw significant gains in the stock market.

The online response was also very positive. Both the media and the general public felt that having only one aurora was too boring.

A fight is brewing!

Aurora and Chen Yiran did not comment on this.

Ellison quietly tweeted: "The Joker is here to warm things up. Hope you're still in high spirits after watching our press conference."
