Chapter 1065 Fair Competition (4K)
360 and Penguin are fighting, and Yi Ke is looming.
Regardless of 3 or Goose, both of them noticed Yi Kemanmiao's figure. The former hesitated after verifying Mr. Fang's attitude, while the latter was habitually vigilant.
However, after Penguin quickly finalized the acquisition of Jiangmin, the antivirus industry became very excited and active, and sent executives to contact Yike one after another, thinking that they could be close to the thigh or sell at a high price like Jiangmin.
Yi Ke didn't refuse anyone who came to him. He talked about it, but he didn't really make a move anyway, so he just listened to the excitement at a close distance.
Hearing this, most of them are panic about the development of 360. The installed capacity has grown too fast, and it has already formed a wave of development. The security guard of version 6.0 and the anti-virus software of version 1.0 are indeed technically excellent, and I am afraid that only the giants can control it.
As for whether this giant is Penguin or Yi Ke...
Of course, you can say who you are in front of anyone.
Because the circulating news shows that Yike is interested in cross-border, so everyone starts from this angle, thinking about stuffing things into the YMS ecology.
On August 8, the middle of the month ended, and there was no new conflict between Penguin and 21. Fang Zhuo, who was watching the game, was considering whether to postpone the launch of Yixin.
He has always been patient, but referring to the original 3Q war, it seems to be a battle from the beginning of the year to the end of the year. It is unknown to what extent the two companies will fight and when the intensity will increase.
It would be okay if there is no Yixin arrangement, but the problem is that Yixin needs to cooperate with the Spring Festival Gala activities, and the more users before that, the more fission effect it will have.
Fang Zhuo felt that he couldn't delay his business just to watch the excitement.
After thinking about it, he still took out his mobile phone, found Pony's number, and dialed it to the head of Penguin.
The two have known each other for a long time. Fang Zhuo is still using the QQ account that Pony gave him back then.
The phone was connected almost at the last second when it was about to hang up automatically.
"Hey, Pony, how are you doing?" Fang Zhuo seemed to be back when they were drinking together.
Holding the phone, Ma Huateng was in a trance, and then calmly replied: "Not bad, how about you?"
"I'm fine, but it's not convenient to go abroad now. I've been running between Shencheng and Luzhou for a while, and I've been busy with a lot of things. I've been working on the company's internal affairs before, thinking whether the new organizational structure is more conducive to development. .” Fang Zhuo talked eloquently, like an old friend reminiscing about the old days.
Listening to Mr. Fang's talk, Ma Huateng suddenly remembered the scene of selecting the new five masters described at the end of "The Legend of Condor Heroes". Everyone chose the new "supernatural power", and deliberately did not mention Zhou Botong for the sake of amusing, but Zhou Botong didn't mind at all. .
Seeing this, Yaoshi Dongxie Huang felt admiration. He felt that he was indifferent to fame, and thought that even a monk, Master Yideng, regarded it as an illusion, while only Zhou Botong had an empty heart, and he didn't have the idea of "fame", so he was better.
Now, when Ma Huateng answered Mr. Fang's call, he felt that he had a normal heart, but he did not expect that Mr. Fang on the other side was even better, as if he had no heart at all.
This is either open-minded, or thick-skinned to the point of a master.
He listened silently for a while to Mr. Fang's improvement and thinking about Yike's internal improvement, and couldn't help but also make some comments. After all, Yike is also a giant, and this kind of organizational structure communication is extremely rare.
"I heard that after Chen Weixiang, the vice president of Yike, was taken down by you, there was a big shock inside you. Did you deliberately put it before the structural adjustment?" Ma Huateng asked a rumor.
"It's really not true, but it may be due to the adjustment of the structure, so some people think that it is easy for me to be cruel to Chen Weixiang at this time. I hesitated about this matter, but in the end... I can barely describe it as pushing the boat with the current .” Fang Zhuo’s focus is on sincerity.
Ma Huateng frowned intently, and could feel the situation of being the head of the company after the scale of the company expanded. This is a kind of empathy.
He sighed: "Internal changes are not easy."
Ma Huateng glanced at the time, the two had chatted for a while, and he asked, "Mr. Fang, did you call me today just to chat?"
"Oh yes, I forgot if you didn't tell me." Fang Zhuo asked smoothly, "I see that Yike's acquisition of Jiangmin failed, so I wanted to ask you, I'm actually more interested in the security field of the Internet. Hesitate, it’s okay to enter, or not to enter, if you enter, the scale of 360 is already very large, Penguin seems to have failed this time, will you continue to strengthen competition in the future?”
Ma Huateng heard half of it, and heard Mr. Fang mentioning Penguin's efforts in Internet security this time. He thought he would hear the cliché Penguin's traffic tactics, but he didn't expect to ask Penguin's follow-up actions.
He didn't answer immediately, but thought for a while. The company's goal this time is to curb the development of 360 and prevent the computer client from having a large traffic. If Yike comes out to disrupt the situation at this time, it is not a good thing.
Ma Huateng thought about this, but still didn't answer directly, but smiled: "Mr. Fang, what do you want me to say when you ask me like this? This is a question about the company's development, just like..."
He paused, and continued: "It's like I asked you, will Yike make communication software in the future, can you answer me?"
Fang Zhuo replied without hesitation: "Yes, isn't YMS doing ecology? Isn't communication also an important part of ecology?"
Penguin has always regarded Yike as an important competitor. The most fundamental reason is Yike's hardware foundation in the mobile Internet era, and Mr. Fang's strong offensive personality.
There is nothing more impactful than confirming Yikedong's trend from Mr. Fang himself.
This is the collision of the company's major strategies!
Ma Huateng didn't expect to hear such news in this unexpected phone call, and was stunned for a moment.
Many thoughts came and went.
Just when the secretary walked into the office, he saw that Mr. Ma's face became extremely serious.
Ma Huateng pointed to the door, signaled the secretary to go out first, breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile: "Really?"
"What's there to lie to you? Aren't you penguins just guarding against me? It's all about fair competition. Penguins have so much traffic, so what are you afraid of? We should be afraid of challengers like Yike." Fang Zhuo didn't take it seriously, and was very frank.
Ma Huateng stopped laughing, and immediately asked, "When will Yike start doing newsletters?"
Fang Zhuo still said frankly: "In the second half of next year or the year after, it depends on the situation. I hope that the mobile Internet will develop further. The current Android foundation is still too weak."
The Android foundation is relatively weak, so the Symbian version will be a powerful supplement.
Ma Huateng was skeptical, how much can Mr. Fang believe when he gives such a direct time?
He couldn't help asking again: "Really?"
"Pony, from your tone, it looks like Yi Ke is the champion." Fang Zhuo didn't answer directly this time, but joked, "Don't be nervous, I'll say the same thing, let's compete fairly."
He is not surprised that he knows nothing about Yixin's internal testing. In fact, in order to keep it secret, only a very small number of people in China have tried Yixin, and the focus is on foreign employees.
Fang Zhuo asked again: "Is the penguin still afraid of challenges?"
Ma Huateng's mood was more serious, and he replied: "Of course Penguin is not afraid of challenges. As long as it is a fair competition, we welcome any challenge."
He is not afraid of the challenge from Yi Ke, but he is a little worried about Mr. Fang's mess.
Hardware issues have always been the focus of Penguin's internal discussions, and many articles can be written on it.
"Yes, fair competition. Speaking of this, Pony, I want to say, is your action in the security field this time worthy of discussion?" Fang Zhuo changed the subject.
Ma Huateng discusses the matter: "What kind of morals are you talking about with 360?"
Fang Zhuo was suddenly speechless.
He was quiet for a few seconds before throwing out a sentence: "It seems that you have made up your mind this time, and you are really going to hit the bottom with 360."
"Otherwise, why are we buying Jiangmin?" Ma Huateng said that there is nothing to hide, "QQ doctor is optimizing, Jiangmin software itself is good, it will be a weapon against the standard 360 anti-virus, 360 is free, so we also use free alright."
Fang Zhuo also got the answer he wanted. The acquisition of the anti-virus engine will undoubtedly speed up the pace of Penguin's attack again, and a failure in a charge will arouse Penguin's ambition even more.
Then, you can still set aside some time for old friends, not only to watch the excitement, but also to take advantage of the trend after competing for word-of-mouth.
"In this case..." Fang Zhuo thought about it for a while, and said, "Then Yike won't get involved in this segment of the Internet. First, it doesn't have the traffic of Penguin, and second, it doesn't have the strength of 360. It's meaningless."
Ma Huateng felt a little weird, Mr. Fang is so talkative?
He said: "I won't hear the news about Yike's acquisition of Norton Antivirus tonight, will I?"
"Absolutely not, I'm just watching the excitement." Fang Zhuo said solemnly, "Yike said that if he doesn't enter the field of Internet security, he won't enter. If he says he will do communication, he will definitely do communication."
Ma Huateng's mood was messed up.
The conversation between the two ends.
Penguin's president's office suddenly held an impromptu meeting.
In the office of the president of Yike, Fang Zhuo turned the pen in his hand, thinking about the information he got on the phone.
Judging from the current situation, Penguin is fighting hard. Well, if the other party feels the pressure of Yike to do communication, I wonder if they will speed up their actions and speed up the battle in the field of Internet security.
Fang Zhuo is not modest, this call must not reach a public relations department of Yike?
In this way, it can be speculated that Yixin's launch will be postponed for half a month and a month, so it should be worth the wait.
The smell of tea wafts in the office.
The mobile phone on the table vibrated, and a new message was received. Lei Jun’s Mituan.com will be opened at the end of the month, and will conduct a trial run of the group buying business in Shencheng, Beijing, and Yangcheng——August 8st, Rice balls are coming.
Fang Zhuo grabbed his phone and sent a message back to Lei Jun, wishing the end of the month a smooth one.
When he put down his phone, the opponent of Penguin still appeared in his mind. He didn't know when Penguin would enter the group buying market again. The battle of thousands of groups probably means that next year's four giants will all end.
dong dong dong.
Su Wei pushed open the door, looked at the situation in the office, and walked in without seeing President Fang dealing with business.
"Not busy? Do you want to go to the new headquarters? It's almost the end of the two weeks." Su Wei sent out an invitation.
Fang Zhuo shook his head, not very interested, he relayed the call just now to Mr. Su.
Su Wei heard the communication between the heads of these two giants, and commented: "You...you talk about fair competition as a kind of etiquette."
Not to mention whether Penguin's recent actions are fair or not, it may be difficult for Yi Ke to follow this standard.
The stakes are high, and flexibility is a must.
"You're the black guy next to me." Fang Zhuo sighed, thinking about the communication on the phone, "In just one phone call, Pony probably tried to kill me 10 times."
Su Wei immediately asked, "What about you? Did you touch him 11 times?"
Fang Zhuo: "..."
With a sharp weapon in the body, the murderous heart starts from the beginning.
This time Yi Ke and Penguin, the murderous intentions of both sides are probably extremely serious.
Speaking of which, in the original 3Q war, some manufacturers took advantage of the situation to launch instant messaging software. Fang Zhuo doesn't remember clearly. If he is right, it seems that Sina got involved.
However, the Sina at that time is not the same as the current Yike.
"How much do you think Yi Xin can do?" Fang Zhuo asked Teacher Xiao Su.
"I don't know, Penguin is definitely going to fight with you anyway." Su Wei suddenly frowned, "It's not like you have to implement the same set of safety standards abroad as you are in China, right?"
Fang Zhuo murmured, "It's not the same, the influence is different. Well, speaking of it, will Mr. Zhou still be in a real business battle this time?"Could it be that he didn't have time to hide in Xiangjiang under the chain reaction?
On the 21st, at the latest, Yixin will go online at the end of October, that is, there are still 10 days left. If Penguin does not launch a second attack by then, I am afraid that after seeing Yixin appearing on the stage, it will shrink its front and put all its energy on its core business The defense is up.
No matter how 360 does the client, is it possible that the giant Yike directly attacks the communication business and surprises Penguin?
Time waits for no one, old friend, don't disappoint.
Yi Ke watched the battle, which also invested a lot of cost.
With blessings in his heart, Fang Zhuo didn't wait until the end of the month for Penguin's charge. Instead, he watched the low-key launch of "Mituan.com" first.
As a product of Mr. Lei's investigation of Groupon in the United States, Mituan, like many domestic Internet projects in the past, also aligns with foreign countries in terms of pages and models.
When Mituan first went online, it acted cautiously. For the time being, it only sells one product with a high discount a day, and only 7 orders a week, but it involves different fields of eating, drinking, and entertainment.
Simply put, fight for people and give discounts.
The domestic market has no concept of this model. Mituan.com needs to see how well merchants and users accept it, and it also needs to solve unexpected and unexpected problems in a small-scale operation to accumulate experience.
Lei Jun is not in a hurry to start a business again this time, but is very cautious and careful.
Fang Zhuo tried to put together an order on September 9nd. The product was a branded cake, the original price was 2 yuan, and 120 people could get a 80% discount, only 5 yuan.
Although the fight was successful, he didn't go.
The money was paid, but there was no food.
"Mr. Lei, I spent money on this order but didn't get anything to eat. Will you give me a refund? Did I buy the cake or the discount right?" Fang Zhuo sent Lei Jun a message.
After receiving the news, Mr. Lei found a dilemma. Here, the cake shop really prepared 80 cakes. If customers don’t pick them up, the cakes will expire, and making another one will add extra cost. up...
How to solve this matter?
During the trial operation of Mituan, Lei Jun was confronted with all kinds of big and small problems.
After the first week of September, Mituan, which opened its business in three places, did not cause any waves. Instead, both merchants and customers had a high rate of negative reviews.
Fang Zhuo occasionally listened to comments from Wang Fengyi, who was also concerned about the rice ball business, but he was still counting Penguin's time in his heart.
Penguin is so patient with his temper, could it be that he really intends to delay until the end of the year, then Yi Xin will not be able to find convenience.
The second week of September was another peaceful one.
Just when Fang Zhuo thought he would get nothing again, on September [-]th, Doctor QQ updated the version. This time, he even changed his name, directly calling it QQ Computer Butler.
Along with the launch of QQ Computer Manager, the acquired Jiangmin antivirus software has also been rebranded and renamed as QQ Antivirus, and it is also announced to be free of charge.
It is still installed in the background, and it is still forced drainage. After summing up the experience and lessons, Penguin once again launched a strangling of 360.
