Early life
First grade primary school to submit computer program
Sergei brin was born into a Jewish family in the former Soviet Union. When he was five years old, brin immigrated to the United States with his parents, thus starting his American style success. His father, Michael, was a mathematician who worked on the Soviet Planning Commission and taught in a Moscow school. After coming to the United States, his father Michael got a teaching position at the University of Maryland, where he is still a professor of mathematics. Brin's mother is an expert at NASA. In fact, brin's grandfather was also a math professor. Influenced by his family, when he was young, brin's mathematical genius began to show. At the same time, he had a strong interest in electronics. As early as he was in the first grade of primary school, brin submitted a design plan for computer printout to the teacher, which surprised the teacher. You know, at that time, computers were just beginning to appear in ordinary families in the United States. After graduating from high school, brin entered the University of Maryland to study mathematics. His father Michael hoped that he would become famous along his own footprints and go to the end on the road of mathematics. However, brin did not develop according to the plan set by his father. Due to his outstanding achievements, brin received a scholarship after his Bachelor of Science degree and then entered Stanford University. However, brin dropped out of school while studying for a Ph.D. at Stanford and, together with his classmate friend Larry Page, founded the well-known Internet search engine Google.
Characters and deeds
Founded Google
Brin is deeply attracted by the charm of the Internet. He regards the Internet as the only way to the future. As early as in college, brin had invented a hypertext language format search system. In September 1998, 24-year-old brin and 25-year-old page decided to start a company together. The only service provided by the company is search engine. Knowing nothing about the business plan, brin got his first investment of $100000 from a Stanford alumnus. With the $100000, brin and page started their Google journey in a friend's garage. At the beginning of the company, besides brin and page, there was only one employee - Craig Silverstone - Google's current technical director. Their hard work soon paid off: at that time, Google had 10000 searches a day and began to get media attention. In 1999, another two venture capitalists injected 25 million US dollars into Google, helping Google enter a new stage of development. It can be said that Google's success stems from the imagination of its founders brin and page, as well as their talent. When Google was founded, the industry's understanding of the Internet search function was that the higher the frequency of a keyword appearing in a document, the more prominent the document's ranking position in the search results. Brin, on the other hand, holds that the factors that determine the ranking of documents in search results are the frequency of a document appearing in other web pages and the credibility of these web pages, and the popularity and quality of web pages in the audience are the decisive factors. It turns out that brin is right.
Listing auction pricing
When Google's competitors are committed to becoming portal sites and investing a small proportion in search services, brin goes the other way and tries to improve its search engine. Google's usage rate is getting higher and higher, and the number of searches per day has increased from 10000 six years ago to 300 million at present. Many advertisers ask for ads on Google Web pages. At the same time, many big companies and government agencies, such as Yahoo, P & G and the U.S. Department of energy, have also used Google's search technology, and Google charges royalties according to the number of search releases. As a technical genius, brin also has no lack of business talent. Brin, page and their team began to create their own wealth myth. They are not only creating strange search engine technology, but also trying to innovate in the listing of Google. Their IPO (initial public offering) pricing by auction was called "Wall Street cleansing" by American media, and two new billionaires were born.
"Free lunch"
Brin has his own unique way to make genius work more comfortable in the company. Although there is a Western proverb "there is no free lunch in the world", in Google Brin, "free" is a part of the corporate culture. The implementation has been meticulous: employees' meals, fitness, massage, laundry, bath and medical treatment are all 100% free; the worst computer monitors given by the company to employees are all 17 inch liquid crystal displays; there is a coffee shop on each floor. You can make coffee and eat snacks at any time. There are all kinds of drinks in the refrigerator. You can drink them for free. Brin also allows employees to bring children and pets to work, which is incredible in many companies in the United States. In addition, any important employee of the company has its own independent office, and each office can be decorated according to its own wishes. Brin's office is not much different from the others, just a little better. Brin also asked: companies should have ideas ahead of the times. He made an unwritten rule for Google employees: engineers must spend a quarter of their time thinking about great ideas, even if they may be bad for the company's financial prospects. To encourage innovation, brin allows employees 4% of their time to do whatever they are interested in, but the research results must be sold to the company. He holds an annual employee innovation technology competition with a bonus of $10000.
