My father becomes Mixiegen later the cursor Sor that the city establishs an university, I also am a child that has lot very much. the operating sor's life is very bouncy, he has same time to foster me, where to have better than is the child being reared in the school place? What I want to tell everybody is, I come here is to come home not just look. I express the sense of pride that I come here hard, with my mother, my elder brother, my wife Lucy, still have your everybody. I feel proud for you, the close friends that is you is proud, we were joined great, Damixiegen family, I feel it is the one part of my life. What I want to tell everybody is, I am very clear you sit on seat, listening to ground of multiply words of an old guy to do what the commencement makes a speech to experience, not urgent, I can say briefly. I have a story about pursueing a dream, say the story that is the road that a discovery dreams to come true well and truly. You know, is midnight sweet what feeling is awaking in the dream? If bedside does not have paper pen to remember the dream, and how to forget a with nothing left to be met again early in the morning the following day? Become me 23 years old when, I had been done so a dream. I awake suddenly, I think: If I can come down whole Internet download, only in store link ......, I grab a pen begins to write, it is very important that occasionally Cong Mengzhong awakes. I spent the time of a midnight to describe detail, believe firmly it will be all. before long hind, I tell my adviser, terry Wennuogelade (Terry W Inograd), want to spend two weeks of time to download whole network, he nods at that time, actually he knows completely to want to spend longer time, but he is very sagacious, did not tell me. the youth's optimism cannot be underestimated normally! Startling is, I had not wanted to want to make engine of a search. this one concept did not enter my mind even. but later, I thought of the better way that gives a webpage sort suddenly, in order to form true search engine, gu Ge Was born so. When great dream appears, capture it. I am resting closely when root university goes to school, the teacher teachs me how to dream to come true. I know this sounds a little comical and funny, but I am groom from what the name grows to head force got instructive in the project. the catchword of this project is "ignore is impossible ". this item drive wears the idea that I pursue an insanity: I want to build inside campus the individual carries a system quickly in order to replace public transportation. this is this kind of future means that solves our communication problem. I am up-to-date the issue that still considering a lot of concerned liaison man, you do not want indulge dream, and shoshould regard it as a kind of habit goes breeding. A lot of businesses that people does vigorously now, if cook, Bao Jie, drive, will take up only henceforth very few time. that is to say, if we "ignore is impossible", can find a solution. I think, the dream with ambitious implementation is more easy, I know this sounds is complete nonsense. since do not have a person to be able to arrive wildly, do this business, you are impossible also to finish. but the most outstanding person hopes to challenge. what Gu Ge is faced with this. our mission organizes global information namely, and let it can accept everywhere, produce effect. won't His make everybody excited? But we do not want to start Gu Ge really, because Xie Lin and I am too afraid, do not take a doctor's degree. nevertheless we are brushed later exploded 3 pieces of credit card, bought hard disk from inside van of an open sail, this also is Gu Ge's earliest hardware. if use summary of a word, how to change the world, that is effort of the work energetically on the career in some kind of exceeding excitement. When I become a doctor, my resembling makes the item of 3 respects. Thank my adviser, he says to me, "Why are you done make a network? "He gave me a few first-rate proposals, because although must be in 1995, the network is growing as the growth of people and activity. technology and network can make you become lazy. become lazy? The software that 3 people combination writes my means can let your person is used and be benefited, but can 3 people receive a telephone call one day 10 thousand times about a hundred? Find the lever of the earth since prize, you can become lazy. Altogether, I know this world looks already broken up, but this is a great period, OK in your lifetime some madder, follow your curiosity, active Parameter Ising. do not abandon your dream. the world needs you. If my father can live to be today, the nothing is more... than that I think he is the happiest sees me, Lucy and our child is together. I can fail to take a doctor's degree because of me to him and angry. my father is one fills the person that understands thoroughly force and passion to new thing, if he lives to be today, he can have new idea certainly, if he also can come to here today, will be him in lifetime a most honorable day one. Thank mom, thank Lucy, thank your everybody. (Annals Wei) Netizen comment

Sina technology news Beijing Time on May 5 news, according to foreign media reports, Google co-founder Larry Page (Larry Page) recently at the University of Michigan Graduation Ceremony made a speech, he encouraged students who are about to graduate with his own Google experience.   The full text of the speech is as follows: First of all, I hope everyone can stand up and wave to friends and family who support you! Show your love! I am honored to be here today. Please wait. I know, just now, you may be thinking: every speaker at the graduation ceremony will say-it's a great honor, but for me, it's really a deep sense, this is because I am here to be more special and friendly than most people you know. I want to tell you why. A long time ago, in September 1962, there was a Consumer Cooperative named Steven on the campus. The Cooperative has a kitchen where student volunteers clean the top of the kitchen every ten years. A female college student named Gloria climbed a high ladder and tried to clean the dirty ceiling. A boarding student named Karl stood on the floor. He looked at the girl with admiration, this is the first time they met. They are my parents. I think you will think that I am the direct result of the "Chemistry Experiment" in the kitchen, right here, University of Michigan. My mother was with us today. We should find the place where they met, and set a nameplate on the ceiling, engraved with "Thank you mom and dad !" Today, our family came to the University of Michigan: me, my brother, and my parents. My father earned three and a half degrees at the University of Michigan. His doctorate degree is in communication science because they thought that computer was just a hot spot and he got it 44 years ago. He and my mother made great sacrifices for it. When raising my new brother, they often break into two half dollars. My mother knocked out my father's paper with her hand. The velvet cap I wore was my father's. This diploma is the same as what you will get. It is my father's. My grandfather works at the Chevrolet factory in Flint, Michigan. He is a worker on the assembly line. He drove his two children here and told them that this is the university you will go. Both of his children graduated from the University of Michigan, which is the American Dream ". His daughter, Beverly, is with us today. My grandmother often carried a hammer, when the workers sat down and went on strike to protect themselves. When I was a child, I hit a tree or something with the hammer. Now people no longer need to protect themselves with a heavy guy, which is good. But if something goes wrong today, I bring it with me. My father later became a professor at Michigan State University, and I was a very lucky child. Professor's life is very flexible. He has a lot of time to train me. Where is it better to train my children in school? What I want to tell you is that I come here not just to go home. It's hard for me to express my pride here, with my mother, my brother, my wife Lucy, and you all. I am proud of you, and proud of your friends and family. We have joined the great family of Michigan, and I feel like it is part of my life. What I want to tell you is that I am very clear about how you feel when you are sitting in the seat and listening to an old guy talking about his speech at the graduation ceremony. Don't worry, I will briefly say. I have a story about the pursuit of my dreams. More accurately, it is a story about how to discover the true path of my dreams. Do you know what it feels like to wake up in a sweet midnight dream? If there is no paper or pen to write down the dream at the bedside, what will happen if you forget the essence of the next morning? When I was 23 years old, I had such a dream. When I woke up, I thought: If I could download the entire Internet, I would only save the link ......, I start writing with a pen. Sometimes it is very important to wake up from my dream. I spent a midnight time describing the details and was sure it would take everything. Soon after, I told my mentor that it would take two weeks for Terry Winograd to download the entire network. At that time, he nodded, in fact, he knew it would take a longer time, but he was wise and didn't tell me. Optimism of young people should not be underestimated! Surprisingly, I never thought about creating a search engine. This concept did not even come into my mind. But later, I suddenly thought of a better way to sort webpages to form a real search engine, Google This was born. When there is a great dream, seize it. When I was at the University of Michigan, my teacher taught me how to make my dream come true. I know it sounds funny, but I was inspired by a training program named leadership growth. The project's slogan is "indifference to impossible ". This project inspires me to pursue a crazy idea: I want to build a personal express transport system on campus to replace public transport. This is a future solution to our traffic problems. I still think about many problems related to transportation. Don't let your dreams go, But cultivate them as a habit. Nowadays, many things that people make a lot of effort to do, such as cooking, cleaning, and driving will only take a very small amount of time in the future. That is to say, if we "ignore the impossible", we can find a solution. I think it is easier to achieve ambitious dreams. I know it sounds nonsense. Since no one is crazy enough to do this, you cannot do it. But the best people want to challenge. This is what Google faces. Our mission is to organize global information, make it available everywhere, and play a role. Isn't that exciting? But we really don't want to start Google, because Xie Lin and I are too worried about getting a doctorate. However, we subsequently cracked three credit cards and bought hard drives from a convertible van, which is also Google's earliest hardware. To sum up in one sentence, how to change the world is to make great efforts in a very excited career. When I was a doctor, I was working on three projects. Thanks to my mentor, he said to me, "Why are you not doing network work ?" He gave me some very good suggestions, because even in 1995, the network was growing with the increase of people and activities. Technologies and networks can make you lazy. Become lazy? I mean, software written by three people can be used and benefited by hundreds of people, but can three people connect to millions of calls a day? You can become more lazy by finding the lever that inspires the earth. All in all, I know that this world seems to be broken, but this is a great time. You can be crazy in your life, follow your curiosity, and be aggressive. Don't give up on your dream. The world needs you. If my father can live today, I think he would be most happy to see me, Lucy and our children together. I was angry with him because I didn't get a doctorate. My father is a person with insights and passion for new things. If he lives to this day, he will have new ideas. If he can come here today, it will be one of the most glorious days of his life. Thank you, mom, Lucy, and everyone.
