Chapter 675 Lei Jun and Wang Xing choose one of the two
Yingu Building is on the east side of Zhongguancun Road. Walking about 800 meters south is Zhichun Road where Yingshi Building is located.
On the 8th floor, an office space of about 500 square meters has been renovated into an office area, which can accommodate dozens of people. A huge logo hangs at the front desk: Yuetuan.com!
In the only independent office, Lei Jun crossed his hips and looked out at the prosperous street scene of Zhongguancun.
He graduated from the Computer Science Department of Wuhan University and started his own business in his senior year. He partnered with several classmates and founded a "Three Color Company" whose product was a replica of Jinshan Hanka.
At that time, computers had just emerged in China, and all computers were in English.
Since the memory and hard disk capacity are very small, making a Chinese character system requires a lot of space, and it will be very laggy to install it directly on the computer. Kingsoft has developed an external Chinese card, which contains a Chinese character library, and can achieve this without taking up computer memory.
The effect of system Chineseization.
By the way, Jinshan and Qiu Bojun in the early days are really the idols of countless programmers. Qiu Bojun single-handedly wrote version 0, which filled the gap in Chinese processing software in the Chinese market, which is even more awesome.
Lei Jun's Sanse Company also makes this kind of Hanka.
A few people only knew R&D but not operations and promotion, and they were cracked by pirates. The company couldn't make ends meet and eventually broke up.
After graduation, Lei Jun followed his parents' arrangements and went to work at an aerospace research institute in Beijing. However, he still had an entrepreneurial spirit and often took on private jobs and participated in various exhibitions.
Once, he met his idol Qiu Bojun at a computer exhibition - Qiu Bojun is his real name, not a pseudonym.
Lei Jun was poached to Kingsoft in great turmoil and was responsible for developing a Pangu suite that included a Chinese processing platform, Chinese input software and spreadsheets, but only sold more than 2,000 sets.
I fell apart after being fucked by him.
While recovering from his injuries, he summed up his lessons and felt that he was developing products from the perspective of a technician rather than from the perspective of the market.
Lei Jun's enlightenment in Longchang began the transformation from a programmer who "writes code like poetry" to a folk monkey master.
In 2007, Kingsoft was listed in Hong Kong. He resigned as CEO and became an angel investor. He has been going around for 20 years. He was 21 years old when he started the business and is now 41 years old.
The old house is on fire, and I want to go out for a walk again.
Historically, he first wanted to invest in Meizu. When Huang Zhang refused, he made his own mobile phone.
Now, he has also developed a great interest in mobile phones, but he can't find satisfactory talents to form a team, and Yao Yuanzhuyu is in front of him, so with a slight flap of butterfly wings, Xiaomi is gone.
Lei Jun once said: "The reason why I dare to start Xiaomi is because I can spend 100 million US dollars, and forget about losing it all!"
It's the same now. He is a rich man himself, and he has so many investor friends. He is full of confidence, and he has joined the group buying track with all his troops.
We all know the e-commerce models, B2B, B2C and C2C.
Group buying is also a type of business, called O2O, which combines online purchasing with offline operations.
"..."
Lei Jun stood in front of the window for a while. He really wanted to see Zhichun Road in the south, but unfortunately he couldn't see it from the position of this office. He was a little strange, why did he think of that guy inexplicably?
The group buying track is so hot, 99 Group is silent, I don’t know what that person is doing.
"Dong dong dong!"
"Please come in!"
"Mr. Lei, Mr. Yao wants to see you."
"Arrived already?"
"arrive!"
Lei Jun blinked, thinking that Cao Cao would be here soon! He walked out of the office and looked up to see Yao Yuan coming excitedly with an excited expression. He didn't know that he thought this man was starting a business.
"Oh, Mr. Lei!"
Yao Yuan gave him a hug and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, I'm abroad and couldn't come to congratulate you immediately!"
"It doesn't matter. I didn't tell anyone. I don't like the bustle of the opening."
Lei Jun also showed his iconic smile and spoke his iconic accent. He enthusiastically invited Yao Yuan into the room, made tea, and asked casually: "You went abroad on a business trip? Did it go well?"
"It's not bad. I'm doing it to promote the game. Foreigners don't follow martial arts ethics and can't keep up with the technology. They jammed our necks with ice cream and we couldn't even see it."
Yao Yuan looked around and said, "Your decoration is pretty good. Are you going to show off your grand plans this time?"
"I just couldn't sit still and wanted to do something. The group buying market is booming now. When I mentioned it, my investor friends were very supportive, so I gave it a try and lost all my money."
"What does it mean to lose everything? If you take action yourself, you can have the last laugh despite the waves."
"It's not as good as the two of them who are advancing at the same time."
After exchanging compliments, Lei Jun asked directly: "I'm very curious. You always get involved in anything, so why don't you stand still this time?"
"Change your mentality!"
Yao Yuan thought for a while and asked: "You sold Joyo.com and resigned from Kingsoft. Why didn't you immediately start a business instead of becoming an angel investor?"
"First, I want to take a rest, and second, since I have freedom of wealth, I have to do something that makes me happy. Oh..."
Lei Jun nodded and understood.
"I'm not interested now. I'll invest directly when I'm interested. I don't want to do the hard work myself!"
Yao Yuan stretched his waist, his posture was very relaxed.
He expressed his attitude, and Lei Jun got closer and took the initiative: "Currently, there are dozens of group buying websites, large and small, and they are still emerging. We are already called a hundred group wars outside.
At present, Meituan, Lashou, and Juhuasuan are the most powerful, not to mention Tencent.”
“What’s wrong with Tencent?”
"They never know how to do e-commerce!"
"Hahaha!"
Yao Yuandale expressed his agreement.
The founder of LaShou.com is Wu Bo, who graduated from the Department of Electronic Engineering of Tsinghua University. In 1999, he founded Focus.com with Gong Yu, yes, that Gong Yu from Qiyi.
So the Internet is a circle, with the same group of people coming and going.
Juhuasuan is a product of Alibaba. It relied on Taobao traffic and crazily harvested the market in the early group buying era. As a result, a corruption case broke out in 2012. Yan Limin, the person in charge of Juhuasuan, was suspected of accepting bribes by non-state staff and was dismissed from his post and sentenced to death.
7 years.
What's even more awesome is that the middle-level cadres and some employees under him all committed corruption and were wiped out.
After the corruption case, Juhuasuan began to transform, from a group buying website to a consumption upgrade. Instead, it lost its own advantages and is now half-dead.
The bayonet of the group buying battle is red, and there are many stories in it.
Meituan actually had no advantage in the early days, but it couldn't resist its opponents and made repeated mistakes. Wang Xing was also a capable person, and he kept his sights set, and combined with various factors, survived to the end.
In terms of capital volume, group buying is much better than mobile phones.
In later generations, Xiaomi has a market value of more than 200 billion Hong Kong dollars, and Meituan has a market value of more than 800 billion. Yes, Xiaomi is engaged in industry, but can Meituan say that it is not important? How many jobs can one food delivery support?
People are disgusted by it because it is too dark.
At this moment, the two chatted for a long time, and Lei Jun keenly noticed that Yao Yuan was very interested in his group buying, and he was kind-hearted.
So he simply asked: "The market is in chaos and everyone is trying to cross the river by groping for stones. What do you have to say?"
