Eight hundred and twentieth chapters after returning to China's big move (4)
Then Robin Li asked: "Chairman Liu, I heard that you own shares in Google. Is this true?"
Liu Jian nodded and said: "Brother Li, don't be so polite, just call me Liu Jian! I invested in them when they were first established, and I am the largest shareholder second only to their founder Page. Baidu will cooperate with Google in the future
There may be competition, but I believe we can also cooperate. My idea is to do this: Don’t ask Google for external matters, and ask Baidu for internal matters! Just like Taobao and Amazon, there will also be competition. My idea is that if we can cooperate, we can
Cooperation, if we really can’t cooperate, I will naturally stand on our side. At worst, I’ll sell off the shares of those companies. Liu’s Network Group is my foundation!”
With Liu Jian's words, everyone became more confident.
"Brother Ma, there will be a new racing game coming soon here at Birds of Paradise. It was originally named Kart Racing. My idea is to directly implant it into the Penguin platform and change the name to Penguin Kart. How will the cooperation profits be distributed? You
Talk to Lin Liang. I believe that with this game on the market, many people will get used to logging in to the game directly from Penguin. As long as this plan succeeds, we will have a huge market to tap. And we have reached the point of advertising
When the time comes, Baidu, Taobao, and Bird of Paradise can all provide Penguin with a large number of advertising contracts and get a good start. As long as other Internet companies see the results, they will follow suit, and profits will not be far away.
Liu Jiandao.
Ma Huatong said worriedly: "Will such a large amount of product placement cause resentment among customers?"
Liu Jiandao: "We can use pop-up advertisements. They will appear for five to ten seconds when logging in. Over time, customers will adapt. The upgraded settings are already available. We will use a pet gimmick to attract each customer.
You can keep a pet on the Penguin account, which can be upgraded as you log in, which is also a kind of fun. It will allow more customers to log in to the Penguin account no matter what."
In fact, Liu Jian still had a lot of experience. He didn't even tell Ma Hua Tong why. It was just to prevent the penguin from rapidly expanding. No one except Liu Jian could imagine what kind of momentum the penguin would have once it exploded in strength.
Even Ma Huatong, the instigator, could not have imagined that otherwise he would rather go out to raise funds than let Liu Jian control Penguin. After this merger, the person who will be hurt the most is actually Penguin, and his game will have a paradise in the future.
Produced by Bird Company, online shopping will not appear. Taobao will provide the platform, and even the portal may not appear, and will be completely taken over by Liu Jian.
Ten years later, looking back on the decision made at this time, Ma Huatong still felt regretful. Of course, he was more grateful, because by that time, Liu's Network Group had grown into one of the largest Internet companies in the world, and was constantly growing in the world.
Mergers and acquisitions are being launched on the Internet, causing aristocratic families to cry wolf, but no one has a better way to resist the Liu Group, which has become a behemoth.
Robin Li is a practical person and asked: "Liu Jian, what do you plan to do in the portal area? Now Sina, NetEase, and Sohu are doing very well. If we compete with them, we don't have much advantage."
Liu Jian said with a smile: "Otherwise, what they mainly do is email and news. We do the opposite. We do games, reading, shopping, cars, real estate, alumni records, marriage and love and other projects that they don't pay attention to."
Robin Li worriedly said: "How do these seem to be taken seriously?"
Liu Jiandao: "Just because no one pays attention to what we are doing! We have made sure that everyone who plays games comes to us to find game cheats. With Birds of Paradise here, there will be no problems. People who read books come to us to read novels. I have arranged it."
People buy the most popular Chinese website now! Car buyers come to us to choose models and compare prices. With Wanfu Auto, we have first-hand information! Buying a house has no problem. We have Panlong Real Estate and the house prices in various cities.
, we know everything. We have Taobao for shopping, Baidu for finding information, and Penguin for alumni records. The information is so easy to collect. As for marriage and love, this should be the most important topic for young men and women. Even if we become matchmakers, we can provide it to everyone.
Provide a place for one-night stands. What will happen if you continue to do this? Baidu is present for all these terms, and you will enter our portal if you search for them!"
Everyone looked at Liu Jian in surprise. They didn't expect that he had such a big appetite and wanted to catch everything in one go.
Robin Li frowned and said: "If this happens, it will have some impact on Baidu. I'm afraid those portals will develop their own search engines."
"Key term pricing, we pay Baidu! I believe there is no portal that wants to advertise on Baidu. They want you to spend money to advertise! In fact, as long as using Baidu becomes a habit, people will not easily
Choose other search engines. If you open a through train on Penguin, just click on it, and Baidu's search bar will appear directly. Isn't it even better than those portals? And if it continues to develop, Baidu will face those portals sooner or later.
If this is the case, we should have made preparations in advance!" Liu Jian said.
Ma Huatong suddenly asked: "The construction of the portal network requires someone to take charge of the overall situation. Liu Jian, do you have a suitable candidate?"
Everyone's attention was focused. Liu Jian just said that the president of Liu's Network Group should be selected from among them. If the portal network comes with a strong general manager at this time, they will face huge competition.
Liu Jian smiled and said: "Brother Ma, here at Penguin.com, I think it won't be a big problem with Brother Zhang here. If you can get away with it, how about I ask you to be the general manager?"
Ma Huatong was surprised. He didn't expect Liu Jian to choose him.
Liu Jian has no choice. If merged like this, Penguin's development potential will be very limited. Ma Huatong will react sooner or later. Rather than being unhappy by then, it is better to downplay Ma Huatong's traces on Penguin.com. And Penguin
With Zhang Zhidong here, there won't be any major problems. Furthermore, although Ma Huatong's strategy of running Penguin has been criticized, we have to admit that he is a very capable manager.
No one can deny the role he played in turning a small communication software into the largest Internet company in China.
The establishment of a portal network will inevitably have to compete with those old and powerful companies. It is difficult to choose this person. Once a mistake is made, it will affect the next development of the entire Liu Network Group. Ma Huatong is naturally the best choice under the current circumstances.
Lin Liang and Bai Wei naturally had no objections, and Robin Li's whole mind was on Baidu. At the most critical moment of Baidu, he didn't want to come out. He knew that doing so would hurt Ma Hua's Liu's network in the future.
He has no better way to take the lead in the competition for group president.
Seeing that no one raised any objections, Liu Jian smiled and said: "Brother Ma, it seems that you are well-received by everyone, so don't disappoint everyone. From now on, the company will depend on you."
Ma Huatong felt a heavy burden pressing on his shoulders, but this feeling of being valued made all the unwillingness he had just felt disappear.
"Brother Liu, don't worry, Brother Ma won't let you down!" Ma Hua said with great pain.
Liu Jian laughed loudly and said: "With all of you, I believe that Liu's Network Group will definitely become the largest Internet company in China, and even one of the largest Internet companies in the world."
Everyone laughed, but no one thought that Liu Jian's big words would actually become reality many years later.
Thinking of the decision made that day in a small hotel, everyone was excited. If it weren't for Liu Jian's decision this time, maybe every company would have great development. However, they are limited by their scale and it is difficult to go out of China.
Early the next morning, everyone rushed back to the headquarters of their respective companies to explain what was going to happen next. After Ma Huatong hurriedly explained, he rushed back to Shanghai. He would start a new job here and report to the giants of the portal network.
Launch an impact.
Liu Jian was surprisingly cooperative in this regard. The office building that Panlong Real Estate had just developed in Pudong was directly taken over by Liu Jian and handed over to Ma Huatong for use. The name of the new portal has already been decided, called Perfect Network.
In order to prepare for this battle, Liu Jian directly allocated 100 million in funds to Ma Huatong, and delegated power to Ma Huatong, who was fully responsible.
Four major Internet companies, one major portal, and Liu's Internet Group set sail.
Ma Huatong immediately started recruiting troops. The news of the merger of the four major Internet companies, Penguin, Taobao, Baidu, and Bird of Paradise, shook the Chinese Internet market like a thunder, and everyone knew that the wolf was coming.
And Liu Jian's series of actions after returning to China showed what kind of business talent this extremely controversial Huahua Company has.
Having just completed his layout in Hollywood, he has begun to integrate his network groups. Big moves have come one after another. From the moment he stepped onto the front desk, Liu Jian has no longer been hiding his power and biding his time, but has wanted everyone to see his power.
He does not want to be a clown in the entertainment industry, but wants to become a noticeable entrepreneur, and this requires him to make achievements in the business field.
