Chapter 766 Free is the most expensive

Not only Qingfeng Intelligent Manufacturing is recruiting system security experts.

Tencent, NetEase, Taobao, Legend Network and other Internet companies under Qingfeng Group have made high-profile recruitments.

They not only tapped private experts, but also extended their evil hands to professional Internet security companies.

For a time, the value of IT programmers in the security field doubled.

Beijing.

The newly created Qihoo 360 company headquarters.

Human Resources Director Lao Zhang handed Zhou Hongyi a document.

"President Zhou, I received two more resignation letters today..."

"These bastards, are their wings suddenly stiff or something?"

Zhou Hongyi took a look at the resignation letter and saw that it was two very outstanding technical backbones, and her heart bleeds.

Lao Zhang is the old man next to Zhou Hongyi. He has followed him to conquer the world for many years. One look at Zhou Hongyi's expression and you can tell that he is probably thinking of some off-the-chart move.

Lao Zhang didn't dare to say anything, he just looked at Zhou Hongyi, waiting for him to make up his mind.

Zhou Hongyi has short, thick black hair and a square face. At first glance, she definitely gives off the impression that she is a decent person.

In fact, those who are familiar with him know that Zhou Hongyi has a bad reputation in the Internet circle.

Because he started out by relying on rogue software.

At this time, 36-year-old Zhou Hongyi is one of the most complex, interesting and alternative characters in the Chinese IT industry.

He started working hard when he was a student. After working, he left Founder Group as a software expert and started his own business.

His first entrepreneurial project was the famous rogue software "3721". The website became a success, and he later became the president of Yahoo in China. After leaving his job, he had an investment of approximately US$50 million.

Last year, Zhou Hongyi spent huge sums of money to establish Qihoo 360 Technology Co., Ltd. and served as the chairman of Qihoo 360.

360 Company has attracted much attention since its establishment.

It's because the boss of this company is Zhou Hongyi.

Zhou Hongyi was involved in several major events on the Chinese Internet.

He built the earliest profitable search engine 3721, and in order to survive, he did not hesitate to fall out with authoritative institutions.

He is a cold-blooded boss in the eyes of his employees, a darling of investors, and one of the most active collaborators in the industry.

He once angrily fought back against "throwing dirty water", and he also reflected on himself and launched a campaign against rogue software...

He wields his sword across the world, and his reputation is ruined by it.

Lao Zhang looked at this boss who was younger than himself. This guy who "likes to be Linghu Chong" might have the most powerful competitor in history?

Zhou Hongyi thought quietly for a while.

In Lao Zhang's surprised eyes, he changed hands and signed the agreement to resign.

"Mr. Zhou, are you letting go like this?"

"What else can I do? Lao Zhang, do you think I am still the same Zhou Hongyi I was before?"

Zhou Hongyi laughed and said: "Do you still remember how difficult the conditions of 3721 were when we were founded? Now 360 is many times better than the original 3721? I don't want to worry about the lack of one or two programmers.

And angry. Go back and take a look at all the contracts of these technical backbones. Adjust the ones that should be adjusted, increase the ones that should be increased, and raise the salary and resignation conditions."

"Mr. Zhou, my situation is too small." Lao Zhang was convinced.

He also thought that Zhou Hongyi would make an off-market move to deal with these two resigned programmers.

"Lao Zhang? It was so hard back then, but we have made it through? What does this little thing mean?" Zhou Hongyi said with a smile.

The two of them quietly recalled the time when 3721 started their business.

In October 1998, Zhou Hongyi established Guofeng Internet Software Company. The technical team came from Founder. The company website is called 3721, which means "no matter what."

The five founders, including Zhou Hongyi and Lao Zhang, randomly found a cheap house? To maintain the minimum living standard? To cook their own meals, like the garage stage in the United States.

Hundreds of thousands of entrepreneurial funds were quickly burned out.

At this time, Zhou Hongyi still didn’t know how to make money.

Recalling the past, Zhou Hongyi couldn't help but sigh again:

"The most terrifying thing is the sudden death of a career. 3721 was once on the line between life and death, and that feeling was more terrifying than death."

"Really? Fortunately, we met a noble person? Wang Gongquan, senior partner of idg, invested us US$250,000. With the money, our 3721 website can stand out."

Lao Zhang sighed, "However, Mr. Zhou, you have changed a lot over the years."

Does he know? Zhou Hongyi is ruthless, loyal enough, smart enough, rich enough, and the most unique person he has ever seen in the Internet world? That’s why he has followed him for many years.

Zhou Hongyi said with a smile: "I have changed some, but the core of 'not admitting defeat' will still not change. The character of 'not admitting defeat' is the most helpful to me. What do you think of these Internet companies in my country? Stick with it.

The endings are good.”

Zhou Hongyi added: "The successful entrepreneurs I have seen all have very strong personalities. 'Paranoid survival'? It is difficult for insignificant people to have leadership. So? The idea of ​​​​making small moves behind the scenes? We can no longer have it.

Competitors are our own whetstones. We must face every competitor and defeat them with dignity."

Of course Lao Zhang is even happier to see his boss becoming more rational and mature.

Although 360 was established in September 2005, Zhou Hongyi became chairman in March 2006.

The team of this company is a group of old people who have followed Zhou Hongyi for many years. When the company was established, Zhou Hongyi once said: "Brothers, we have all worked with each other before and know each other well. I will definitely help you. But I just

Coach, whether the company can do well depends on you. When we launched 3721 and lost the opportunity to go public, the brothers will inevitably suffer losses. Now brothers, don’t say anything, the opportunity is in your own hands. Qihoo is like '2.0

Version 3721', the ownership structure is more balanced. When Qihoo goes public in the future, everyone will become a multi-millionaire."

We are not only together for our dreams, but more importantly for our interests.

Zhou Hongyi can lead them to realize their interests, so they will naturally follow closely.

Lao Zhang said: "Then, Mr. Zhou, what should we do next?"

Zhou Hongyi said with a smile: "Of course we need to do a good job in our 360 Security Guard, promotion, and marketing. In order to take the first shot since its launch, I think we must not only eliminate all rogue software, but also have a

The most important method.”

"what way?"



“Of course it’s free!!”

At this time, at the legendary network headquarters far away in Chengdu, Tang Xue, the president, handed Ye Feng a plan to enter the Internet anti-virus software.

Ye Feng only glanced at it and shook his head, "The way to survive for anti-virus software is of course free. We don't need to enter this field anymore. From now on it will be free!!"

"What, free?"

Tang Xue looked depressed. Her legendary network had recruited a group of security experts.

I am getting ready to flex my muscles in the field of anti-virus software.

Ye Feng actually said that all anti-virus software will be free in the future?

In this era, paid anti-virus software is in full bloom.

The more famous ones include Ruixing Xiaokaka (Little Lion), Jiangming, Jinshan, Kaspersky and McCafé, etc.

At this time, the computer's resistance to viruses is particularly weak. In the "Panda Burning Incense" incident some time ago, a small virus caused many computers to be attacked, causing heavy losses.

Therefore, buying a computer and anti-virus software has become a must-have for surfing the Internet.

The source of profit for anti-virus software is the sale of the software. The more you sell, the greater the profit.

Tang Xue decided to enter the field of anti-virus software after researching for a long time.

Unexpectedly, Ye Feng just took one look at the plan and rejected it completely.

Tang Xue couldn't help but feel extremely depressed.

"Free is the most expensive thing. Free is also an innovation."

Ye Feng looked at her and smiled: "The most important business model of the Internet is innovation. Things are like a dog in the clouds. We cannot change our original intentions. Facts have proved that the new generation has more creativity. You have to go to the grassroots and start a business

We should go into the company to discover the cutting-edge power of the Internet in the future, and we cannot copy existing plans.”

Ye Feng knows that with the rise of mobile Internet in the future, the traditional Internet will slowly decline.

It is also for their own good to attack Legend Network as soon as possible at this time.

"Well, as the grid bandwidth increases and the network speed becomes faster and faster, Legend Network can first build some technical reserves for video websites and live broadcast websites. This will also be a big development direction in the future."

After all, Tang Xue was the veteran who started the business with Ye Feng, but Ye Feng couldn't help but reveal some future directions.
