Sonya walked into the fur coat. She was already two steps when he saw him; She saw him either not as she knew and what was always afraid of a little. He was in a female dress with confused hair and with a happy and new for Sony smile. Sonya quickly ran to him.
"Other, and the same", I thought Nikolai, looking at her face, all lit by lunar light. He made his arms under the coat, covered her head, hugged, pressed against himself and kissed her lips, over whom were the mustache and from which the burnt stopper smelled. Sonya in the middle of the lips kissed him and, having flowning small arms, took him for his cheeks on both sides.
"Sonya! ... Nicolas! ..." they just said. They ran to the barn and returned back each of their porch.

When everyone went back from Pelagei Danilovna, Natasha, always all seen and noticed, arranged so accommodation that Louise Ivanovna and she got to Sani with Dimmler, and Sonya sat with Nikolai and girls.
Nikolai, no longer distinguished, rode exactly in the opposite way, and staring in this strange, the lunar light in Sonya, while I looked for everything with the change of light, from under the eyebrows and mustache, from which he already decided never Severe. He peered, and when I learned all the same and recalled, hearing this smell of a traffic jam, mixed with a sense of a kiss, he breathed frosty air to himself with a full breast and, looking at the outgoing land and a brilliant sky, he felt again in the magical kingdom.
- Sonya, are you good? - Occasionally asked him.
"Yes," Sonya answered. - And you?
In the middle of the road, Nikolai gave to hold the horses to the Kumor, ran for a minute to Sanya Natasha and became on withdrawal.
"Natasha," he told her a shop in French, "you know, I decided about Sony."
- Did you tell her? - asked Natasha, his whole suddenly seeking joy.
- Oh, what are you strange with these mustache and eyebrows, Natasha! Are you happy?
- I'm so glad, so glad! I'm angry with you. I did not tell you, but you did something bad. This is a heart, Nicolas. I'm so glad! I am a nasty, but I could have been one happy without Sony, "Natasha continued. "Now I'm so glad, well, run to her."
- No, wait, what are you funny! - said Nikolai, inspiring everything in her, and in his sister, too, finding something new, extraordinary and charmingly gentle, which he had never seen in it. - Natasha, something magical. BUT?
"Yes," she answered, "you did great."
"If I first saw her, what she was now," Nikolai thought, "I would have long asked what to do and would do everything that she would tell, and everything would be fine."
"So you're glad, and I did well?"
- Oh, so good! I recently quarreled for it. Mom said she catches you. How can I say? I almost walked from my mother. And no one will never allow anything wrong with it and think about it, because in it one good.
- So good? - Nikolai said, once again looking out on the expression of the face of the sister to find out, whether it was true, and hiding boots, he jumped off from the outlet and ran to his sleigh. All the same happy, smiling Circass, with a mustache and brilliant eyes, looking out of under the sable capping, was sitting there, and this Cherkees was Sonya, and this Sonya was probably his future, happy and loving wife.

Business person: Larry Page - from the creation of the largest search engine before developing unmanned cars

The Rubric "Business Person" tells readers of Megamine on what stories and facts are surrounded by the most vivid IT entrepreneurs from around the world, the cost of companies running over any reasonable limits. We will not be limited to the "new wave" of businessmen and tell me, including those who are customary with the "old school".

Today close-up - Lawrence "Larry" Page, Coordinator and developer of the Google search engine, who once again occupied the position of CEO of the company since 2011, and later he headed Alphabet. The state of Larry Page is estimated at $ 37.4 billion, which allowed him to take the 12th place in forbes list In 2015.

Childhood, education, hobbies

Larry Page was born in the family of Gloria Page and Karl Paige on March 26 in 1973. Larry's parents were engaged in teaching computer science at Michigan University, thanks to which there were always new computer models in the house, as well as many magazines similar subjects. All this could not be not interested in young Larry, who with early childhood Undoubted the principles of application for personal computers.

Parents gave Larry to school in Montessori, who adhered to non-standard approaches to education. As Larry Page himself noted: "Such a type of training that cultivates an approach with the production of all the facts is questioned, as well as the situation in the world and the reluctance to follow orders, greatly influenced my future."

At the age of 12, Larry Page read the biography of Nikola Tesla, who died in debt and unwindiness - this story made an indelible impression for a teenager and then he began to think about developing new technologies and the need to have knowledge of the basics of business to properly apply these technologies.

"I realized that the invention of new technologies in itself does not give anything. You need to spread them around the world so that people began to use them, "recalls Larry Page.

Along with the programming classes, Page also played a saxophone, and music classes later played important role In the life of the future founder of the most popular search engine.

During study in Michigan University, he became a member of the team engaged in the development of the car on solar panels. He was also one of the initiators attempts to build a project of a monorail road in Michigan - then it was a quick system version. public transport between the campus of the institute. Now Alphabet is developing unmanned cars and new transport systems within the Sidewalk Labs division.

Entrepreneurial experience

After graduating from Michigan University, Page went to Stanford, where in 1995 he met Sergey Brin, his future friend and Google co-founder. At 23, he woke up from an unusual sleep - he was dreamed of the idea "download the entire Internet". Then he began working on the mechanism of ranking web pages and links to them depending on the content of the keyword.

Subsequently, Sergei Brin joined him to him and they began to develop the search engine algorithm, which they called BACKRUB among themselves. In September 1997, Brin and Page registered the Google.com domain, and its main goal was to systematize the information available in the network.

Page has always recognized that it is much better developing new technologies than they would be engaged in the management due to dislike for interacting with people. As the head of Google, he pretended to be concentrated on the results and ambitious ideas.

It is noteworthy that when Larry Page held the position of the head of Google for the first time, he had whole list Management rules with which he guided:

• Do not delegate - do our best to speed up working processes;
• Do not bother if your intervention gives some benefit for the project. Let employees go work and will solve problems among themselves while you are doing something else;
• Do not marry a bureaucrat;
• Ideas are more important than age - a smaller age does not mean that a person is worthy of less respect and support;
• There is nothing worse than interruption of someone without explanation. If you, for example, freeze the project or make something similar, should help people searching for a new way to achieve the planned one.

Larry Page held the position of the head of Google until 2001, when Eric Schmidt was changed on this post, adding the companies of his "experience". Larry and Sergey very carefully approached the choice of candidates for the post of CEO, but in Eric Schmidte, they brought them into information about his hobbies of computers and the fact that he was also "Burner" (a member of the eight-day festival in the USA, which takes place in the Black Rock desert, approx Ed.).

Initially, Larry Page was not very pleased with the idea of \u200b\u200bappointing a new CEO, but after some time, on the contrary, it was positively appreciated by the smallest involved in the company's daily management.

In 2007, Larry Page decided even more removed from the management of the company to devote the time to more standing projects - he got rid of the assistants and now for a banal conversation with him it was necessary to first find a google coincidence.

Despite this, he still continued to have an important impact on the development of Google and new products. It was he who initiated the absorption operating system Android Andy Rubin, who subsequently became a key direction for Google in the mobile device market. About this transaction CEO Google at that time, Eric Schmidt knew until the last moment.

In 2011, he decided to return to the post of CEO and reorganize the company - then there was a launch of such products like Google+, Chromebook, Google Glass and Project high Speed \u200b\u200bInternet Fiber.

He continued to occupy the CEO Google post until 2015, until another reorganization and Google did not become part of the new company Alphabet. Larry Page on the contrary, took the post of chapter Alphabet, giving way to the Pichai Sundar.

"At the chapter Alphabet, I will have the opportunity to develop more ambitious projects, as well as engage in a long-term strategy. As a result, this will improve the lives of a larger number of people, "then mentioned Larry Page in an open letter.

In the new position, Larry Page is developing new technologies, as well as planning new large projects that can be launched within Alphabet.

Hobbies and charity

Despite the dislike for demonstrating their condition, Larry Page acquired a mansion worth $ 7 million, together with another mansion with a garden on the roof and mainly powered by solar panels.

In addition, he acquired a 59-meter Sense superjoint in 2011 for $ 45 million, and at the moment, anyone can rent it for $ 400 thousand per week. Together with Sergey Brin and Eric Schmidt, he acquired eight private aircraft, including Boeing 747.

In 2006, he founded the Foundation in honor of his father Karl Victor. The assets of the Fund at the time of 2014 exceeded $ 1.34 billion, and the main directions for donations were education, medicine, as well as support dysfunctional families and solving the problems of poor.

The status of Larry Page is growing every year, and Google remains a leading company in the search engine market. But now Google is only a small part of Alphabet, which is engaged in much more global problems And at the disposal of Larry Page is now much more resources for the embodiment of ambitious ideas.

On March 26, 1973, Gloria and Charla Page had a second son, Lawrence. His parents teach computer science At the University of Michigan, so the family has a lot of computers and magazines about the technique. Larry became interested in them at an early age.

Larry Page studied at the Montessori methodology, which brought up independence and creativity. According to Page "He was taught not to obey the existing orders and question the question occurring in the world." Such training has significantly affected his further worldview and work.

It is curious that according to this technique, the co-founder of Google Sergei Brin and CEO Amazon Jeff Bezos. Photo: AP.

At the age of 12, Page read the biography of the ingenious inventor Nikola Tesla, who died in poverty and oblivion. The fate of the scientist is very upset by the young Larry. He wanted not only to create any revolutionary technology, but also to properly approach this case from the point of view of business so that his achievements learned.

Now Google Alphabet's head company works both to the creation of unmanned cars from and above the "smart" transport system from Sidewalk Labs.

After the release of Page entered Stanford, where he met Sergei Brin in 1995. Two amateurs computer technology Quickly became close friends.

At 23, Page was thinking about how to download the entire Internet. " He came to mind the idea to rank links to web pages, depending on how many times the desired word was repeated. To implement his idea, Page appealed to the brine, and together they began to work on the search engine, which initially wore the name of the backrub.

Soon the backrub became Google. This name happened From the mathematical term "Gugol", denoting ten to a hundredths. Such a name reflected the Mission of Page and Brin "Sort the world information and make it accessible to all."

Page and Brin are permanent guests of the famous festival, which, by the way, right now in Nevada. A year after the creation of Google's corporation, they left on main page The very first dudge in the form of a burning little man. So the creators of the search engine wanted to report their departure to the festival.

When Larry Page was General Director of Google, he committed the following rules of management:

• Do not delegate authority. Want to make faster, do whatever you yourself.
• You can not contribute - do not bother. Let those who really do business speak.
• Do not be a bureaucrat.
• Ideas are much more important than age. If someone is younger, it does not mean that this person does not deserve respect and cannot be cooperated with him.
• The worst thing is to interrupt anyone's initiative, saying "no, and a point." If you say "no", be sure to offer the best way Implementing ideas.

Google Vice President Omid Cordestani described the paja as an "inquisitive idealist, who seeks to change the world and produce a revolution in the world of technology." Page does not frighten ambitious projects such as creating cards of the entire planet or transfer of all existing books in a digital view.

Page was General Director of Google until 2001. Then the company was headed by Eric Schmidt as an executive director. Brin and Page long could not find a worthy candidate, but when they found out that Schmidt on education programmer, and is still a festival regulance, they immediately realized that he would perfectly fit into corporate culture of the company.
