167 [The movement of the way of the opposite, the use of the way of the weak]

There is a story circulating on the Internet that Chief Justice William Remquist, the United States, has participated in a small circle of card games composed of judges, lawyers, scholars, businessmen and politicians for decades. This card game has special lawyers to study and plan to ensure that every time they play cards, they do not constitute gambling. One of the lawyers was expelled for leaking news. The card game lasted for a total of 33 years and was not disbanded until Remquist's death.

Are these people obsessed with gambling?

Of course not, they are obsessed with that small circle.

Why did Ma Xiaoyun not like drinking when she was young, and suddenly became obsessed with the national wine Moutai, and also served as the vice president of the National Wine Moutai Culture Research Association? He even believed in Qigong and went to visit Master Li and Master Wang... Cough cough, we are all speculations, so don't talk in depth.

However, Ma Xiaoyun is a die-hard Jin Yong fan, and this should be true.

In the early days of his business, he asked a friend of journalists to visit Jin Yong and chatted for three hours. He was named "Ma Tianxing" by Jin Yong. Once he went to Australia to discuss business. He heard that Jin Yong was in Melbourne and immediately took a plane to meet him. The two talked about World War I and World War II to the Internet. Jin Yong also carefully introduced to him the defense and combat situation of Australian soldiers in World War II.

In the second year of the founding of Taox.com, Jin Yong returned to the mainland for some reason. Ma Xiaoyun immediately invited him warmly and brought the Eighteen Arhats to welcome the arrival of his idol in the company. At that time, Jin Yong wrote the inscription "Treasures cannot be tacked, trusting them cannot be abandoned." Ma Xiaoyun felt like he had obtained a treasure and directly regarded it as the core spirit of Taox.com's corporate culture - if it was just to get involved in the circle, Ma Xiaoyun would definitely not do this, and no qualified entrepreneur could do this.

Circles are circles, companies are companies!

The fact that Ali’s toilets are named "Tingyuxuan" shows how deeply the boss was poisoned.

"I like Feng Qingyang the most, like Dugu Nine Swords, like no moves," Ma Xiaoyun has completely forgotten the important things and talked about martial arts culture. "Why do you like it? Because it reveals a philosophical problem. The strongest places in people are often the weakest places; where everyone thinks they are right, they are often the wrong places. The most dangerous places may hide the greatest opportunities."

Song Weiyang smiled and said, "This is a Taoist philosophy. The Tao Te Ching says: The opposite is the movement of Tao, and the weak is the use of Tao. All things in the world are born from existence, and existence is born from non-existence."

"I always have a few books in my bag. Other books can be exchanged quickly, but only the "Tao Te Ching" never changes. I take it out and read a few sentences when I have time." Ma Xiaoyun smiled and opened his briefcase, and took out a "Tao Te Ching" with a severely worn cover.

"Although the Tao Te Ching is magical, it requires too high understanding. In fact, I prefer reading Maoxuan." Song Weiyang said with a smile.

"The Selected Mao Zedong is also a good thing," Ma Xiaoyun said casually, "But Laozi can make people enlightened at any time. Once you encounter troubles or are in a bad mood, just open the book and you can find inspiration to crack the mystery. Like the few sentences you just said, it completely reveals the laws of the operation of the universe and society. I agree with my advocate of "keeping the weak", and as an entrepreneur, you should also "keeping the weak". "Weak" represents vitality and new things. If an enterprise can maintain a "weak" state at any time and a country can maintain a "weak" state at any time, then it will always be full of endless vitality."

Song Weiyang nodded and said, "It can be understood that 'strong' is the aging after things grow, 'weak' is the beginning of the production of things, and 'stay of weakness' means continuous reform and innovation and maintaining one's own vitality. If these two sentences are put into the market, 'weak' is the blue ocean, and 'strong' is the red ocean."

"What blue and red sea?" Ma Xiaoyun had never heard of this word.

Song Weiyang did not expect this to be a future vocabulary and immediately explained: "The competition is fierce. The market that survives through price reduction and promotion and pursuit of cost efficiency is the red ocean. No one is competing for it, value innovation, and unlimited prospects are the blue ocean. The water quality of the Red Ocean is turbid, with poor nutrition, with too many monks and few succulents, with a wide area of ​​the blue ocean, clear and nutritious, and full of vitality."

"This metaphor is very interesting," Ma Xiaoyun suddenly pulled the topic back. "Computers and Intnet are blue oceans. As long as you devote yourself to it now, the future will be infinitely broad. Our Chinese Yellow Pages is China's first commercial website. It is a blue ocean for me and a blue ocean for customers. Once Xifeng Company logs on to China Yellow Pages, it will definitely leave a strong mark in Chinese society with the development of Intelnet."

Song Weiyang laughed and said, "The Internet may be a blue ocean in the United States, but in China, it is still a vacuum at this stage. China does not even have a civilian network, and there is not even a commoner who surfs the Internet. It means that there is no oxygen and plankton in this deep sea, and it is impossible for big fish and shrimp to survive."

"Now it's a vacuum, and it's the blue ocean soon," Ma Xiaoyun fooled, "Intnett's development has been going on for a long time. Last year, China has connected to the international network, and civilian networks will definitely appear this year or next year. Now it's one step ahead, and it will be ten steps ahead in the future. We can lead the development of Intnett in China. Do you know Yinghaiwei in Beijing?"

"I know, the Information Expressway." Song Weiyang couldn't help laughing.

Yinghaiwei was later called "the Whampoa Military Academy of China's Internet". This company has emerged with many Internet tycoons. It is also called "the martyr of China's Internet". Its status in the history of China's Internet is equivalent to the seventy-two martyrs of Huanghuagang.

In another three months, Yinghaiwei will set up a billboard at the south gate of Zhongguancun, which says: How far is the Chinese from the Information Expressway - 1,500 meters north.

At that time, the expressway in Beijing had just been opened. Not to mention drivers from other places, even many local drivers could not find the entrance to the expressway. So the billboard was regarded as a signpost by the confused drivers. Zhongguancun was almost every day, and all of them were fooled by the billboard. The traffic police uncles who came to guide him were so angry that they were full of evil fire.

Of course Ma Xiaoyun didn't know the billboard, and he asked, "Why did Boss Song laugh? Do you think Yinghaiwei can't be bigger?"

"No, you keep talking." Song Weiyang held back his smile.

"I think Yinghaiwei will definitely be able to grow bigger," Ma Xiaoyun said in a very excited tone, "I have already learned that Yinghaiwei is seeking cooperation with the post and telecommunications department to set up a civilian Intnet network in China. Their financing is very smooth, from at least three to five months, or as long as one or two years, China's civilian network will be built. Although our China Yellow Pages can only be in reality abroad now, as long as Yinghaiwei's plan is successful, China Yellow Pages can also be seen in China. Yinghaiwei will definitely be successful. Their information highway plan is supported and recognized by the government..."

Ma Xiaoyun began to talk about the prospects of the Internet in China, and it was so scattered that the sky was full of splashes and golden lotus was surging in the ground, and it was quite in line with the facts.

Yinghaiwei's plan was indeed smooth. In less than a year, it raised 80 million yuan based on the concept of information expressway alone. Moreover, it also received government support. With the help of the post and telecommunications department, it established China's first civilian Internet network. Children who can access the Internet in the future should thank Yinghaiwei.

However, if you are half a step ahead, you are a pioneer, and if you are one step ahead, you become a martyr.

It's cold...

Ma Xiaoyun was still elaborating on the prospects of the Internet. Song Weiyang was a little impatient when he heard this and interrupted with a smile: "I agree to make yellow pages."

"Really?" Ma Xiaoyun said happily, "That's great. I believe this is a great cooperation. Xifeng Company will be remembered in the history of China's Intelligent. We..."

Seeing that this person had a long statement again, Song Weiyang hurriedly said: "Where will Boss Ma go to find customers next?"

"Go to the capital!" said Ma Xiaoyun.

"Then I wish you success," Song Weiyang raised his glass and said, "Drink!"

"Teach the auspicious words of Boss Song!" Ma Xiaoyun drank it all in one go.

Ma Xiaoyun is indeed going to the capital and goes straight to the government department, but he can't see the person in charge at all.

Historically, through his relationship with friends, he met a friend who was a reporter at the Beijing Youth Daily and wanted to ask the Beijing Youth Daily to publish a soft article for publicity. As a result, the Beijing Youth Daily did not agree to cooperate and went around in many ways. Finally, with the introduction of his driver's friend, he entered the editor-in-chief of China Trade News. Finally, he took the soft article published by the Ministry of Trade of China. Just as Yinghaiwei got the government support again, the concept of the Internet was hyped up, and Ma Xiaoyun slowly opened up the government's path.

"My business card." Song Weiyang sent out his third business card after coming to Shenghai, and the first two were sent to Lin Nan, a senior in Shenghai's Propaganda Department and American sociologist.

"Okay, contact us often if you have something to do." Ma Xiaoyun happily packed up his business card, and gave him his own business card when he met.

For Ma Xiaoyun, it was not only because he met President Xifeng and started a business that made him happy, but Song Weiyang also had a very fond taste for him and was quite happy when chatting.

After Ma Xiaoyun left, Lin Zhuoyun asked, "Do you really believe what he said?"

"I believe half of it," Song Weiyang smiled, "this 20,000 yuan of the company's yellow pages will definitely be wasted."

"Then do you give me the money?" said Lin Zhuoyun.

"Because it's interesting," said Song Weiyang.
