Chapter 1299 Eight Wins and Eight Losses (4k)
On the night of December 20, it was very clear what Yike was going to do.
The media on the scene had completely reproduced Mr. Fang's words in text, and anyone could see it.
Propose strategy, build ecology, build content, and cooperate.
Look at search outside of search, and compete for search outside of search.
Li Mingyuan carefully read Mr. Fang's words and thought about it carefully. The situation is indeed not very good. The public opinion is very bad, people's hearts are a little turbulent, and the stock market has plummeted, but...
You can't just sit and wait for death when Yike comes over. Besides, strategy is strategy, and specific implementation may not be the same. Duji is not without a chance of winning.
Li Mingyuan joined Duji as an intern in 2004 and became the first product manager of Tieba. He built it very well, and then he was promoted all the way. In 2010, he jumped to UC and returned to the company in November last year to be in charge of the cloud business department.
This year, he is only 28 years old and has always been favored by the head. It is a time of high spirits.
"Robin, offense is the best defense."
Li Mingyuan didn't hear the sound on the phone, so he emphasized it again, and then found that there was still no sound.
He called "Hello" twice and found that the signal might not be very good, so after hanging up the phone, he wanted to use Yixin to call the leader, but when he found the avatar, he stopped the action in his hand and chose to walk out of the room and call again.
It's okay to call at ordinary times, but don't put eye drops on Robin at the critical moment.
"Now you can hear it, Robin, I mean, offense is the best defense." Li Mingyuan returned to seriousness, expressing his mentality of never fearing and his will to never be afraid of fighting.
The voice of the head of the phone was very clear this time: "You are talking, I am listening, the outside world is not very optimistic about us now."
Li Mingyuan took out the notebook where he wrote the prompt words, and said confidently: "Robin, it doesn't matter whether the outside world is optimistic or not, what matters is what we do. Yike is coming with great momentum this time, but in my opinion, we have eight wins and Fang Zhuo has eight losses."
Li Yanhong's interest was raised: "Eight wins and eight losses?"
"Yes, we are the company that occupies the largest search market. PC and mobile terminals combined, Sogou, Youdao, and 360 account for less than 30%. This is one win for us and one loss for Fang Zhuo."
Li Mingyuan was talking about the share of the entire search market. PC + mobile terminals, Duji has a market share of more than 70%, far ahead of other competitors.
Li Yanhong said "um" to indicate that he was listening.
"We Duji has the best search technology. Fang Zhuo's technology is definitely not as good as ours. This is two wins and two losses." Li Mingyuan said this with great confidence.
Li Yanhong on the other end of the phone nodded slightly, this is natural.
"Fang Zhuo is talking about content now, but Duji has already started to make content. We already have a huge content front. Whether it is Baike or Tieba, we are far ahead. This is three wins and three losses." Li Mingyuan talked about the most obvious threat to Duji in this Yike meeting.
He just paused and couldn't wait to continue: "We have a large number of partners and channel vendors. This is what we have been doing since 2002. This will help us continue to exert our influence, and this is what Yike lacks."
This is four wins and four losses.
"Not long ago, we reached cooperation with Samsung, Apple, UC and other software and hardware manufacturers with great influence in the mobile market. These stable cooperations are difficult for Yike to obtain no matter what. This is five wins and five losses."
"Our exclusive cooperation in many fields is progressing very well, just like in the field of medical health, those authoritative data will become our difference from other searches, this is six wins and six losses."
"Since the establishment of Duji, domestic Internet users know that 'Duji once, you will know'. This strong user usage inertia will bring unimaginable advantages, this is seven wins and seven losses."
"Fang Zhuo this time We have organized many competitors, like an alliance, but they are not one after all. They have their own interests and positions, and they will inevitably have their own ulterior motives. We are united in Duji, and this is eight wins and eight losses. "
Li Mingyuan said confidently: "We have eight wins, and Yike has eight losses. Robin, what is there to worry about?"
After listening to the eight wins and eight losses from the young people, Li Yanhong exclaimed: "Yes, Yike has advantages, and we are not all disadvantages. In the search area, the company needs your recognition and confidence."
Let's not talk about other things. If we don't even have confidence in search, how can we fight.
Li Mingyuan boldly proposed: "The competition in the mobile Internet era is getting more and more fierce. I think the company's structural adjustments should be further accelerated, so that we can gather the strength of the upper and lower levels to win this search war."
From the moment Fang Zhuo stood up, the competition became a decisive battle.
To resist foreign aggression, we must first stabilize the internal situation. I should be the vice president.
Li Mingyuan did not mention the vice president, but only mentioned the increase in competitiveness that the organizational structure can bring.
Li Yanhong pondered and said, "Well, I will consider it."
The company started rotating executives last year and has discussed new organizational structure adjustments this year. Now Yike has launched a competition. The plan originally planned to be implemented next year is mentioned now as a response signal, which may be better.
The company will have its own actions, and individuals must have their own attitudes. When Yike called, everyone looked like they had lost their parents. Who are they showing this to?
Li Yanhong admires young people's vigorous vitality and unwillingness to admit defeat. This is the attitude Duji should have when facing challenges in the future.
He and Li Mingyuan chatted for a while, and it was already early in the morning when they ended the call.
That night, Li Yanhong, who had won eight victories, tossed and turned. He fell asleep for a while in the second half of the night, and woke up suddenly at dawn, trying to gather his energy to think about the content of the new day's meeting.
On the other hand, Fang Zhuo, who was completely unaware of the eight defeats, had a good sleep and saw the latest news from his friends. The stock price plummeted 12.6% yesterday, and the market value evaporated by US$5.166 billion. The impact was still relatively large.
He got up, washed up, and read media reports while eating breakfast. He soon saw something worth sharing with Su Wei.
"Mr. Fang 12 years ago did not have that strength, so he could only watch the company's prospects disappear in the era."
"Twelve years later, Mr. Fang will be standing on the 23rd floor of Yike, and he will promote the development of the industry according to his own wishes."
"The world is not yours, but ours."
Su Wei didn't have a very good appetite, but she felt quite satisfied after hearing the man next to her with his emotional narration. After taking a few bites of food, she said: "Twelve years ago, you were standing like a slave, right? And you still have to be on the stage." Accept other people’s comments.”
Fang Zhuo thought about it and realized that it was referring to his experience of recording an entrepreneurial program on CCTV. He smiled and replied: "That's not true. I seemed quite happy at the time."
"Did you have the kind of state of mind described in the report at that time?" Su Wei asked again.
Fang Zhuo thought carefully for a few seconds: "At that time, I just acted according to the situation and took advantage of the situation. I did whatever I could do. I am the same now. I will do whatever I can do."
"I thought you were going to do Suiduji." Su Wei smiled slightly.
"This is an ecosystem built on the YMS skeleton. The focus is on the content ecosystem. At the same time, Yixin can provide traffic, which is what we need to do. It's just more symbolic to use it at this point of competition with Duji. "Fang Zhuo said, "Public opinion and word-of-mouth are also very useful, but the record should still be worse than the last time we and Penguin entered. "
During the "Hippo Incident", Penguin and 360 competed on the user's computer. Everyone gathered together to watch the fun, either actively or passively. This time it was different.
Of course, if the accumulation of records continues like this, sooner or later there will still be incidents that trigger public opinion, but there is no need to wait for such an entry point.
Fang Zhuo changed his mind and said: "Some media said that I want to compete with Li Yanhong in internal strength. It's almost the same. There is no need to do so many bells and whistles."
"They will definitely counterattack." Su Wei changed her stance slightly and grasped the mood of Duji's decision-makers.
"As long as we push forward, no matter how it counterattacks, it will have to let us spend money." Fang Zhuo was very calm, "This time, I think NetEase and 360 are very excited and are willing to try to challenge Duji's status together. , the new version from PC to mobile Internet has indeed been weakened. "
Su Wei thought about the record of the man next to her and sighed: "Fortunately, we are no match for you."
"If you were my opponent, it would definitely be bad. You know me so well." Fang Zhuo said with a smile.
"I can't see you clearly," Su Wei said. "When I look up, you are shining brightly at the highest point of morality."
Fang Zhuo was very happy to receive praise.
From yesterday to today, I have received a lot of compliments and a lot of related interview requests. However, when the strategy is released, it still depends on the effectiveness of its execution.
At nine o'clock in the morning, Fang Zhuo arrived at the company and still had to discuss further cooperation with Ding Lei, Zhang Chaoyang, Zhou Hongyi and others, but before the meeting started, he received a call from IDG Xiong Xiaoge.
Xiong Xiaoge was in Tokyo recently to research Nikon. He was quite shocked after receiving the news yesterday. It was not until today that he couldn't help but make a phone call to complain.
"We still have some shares in Duji... you..."
IDG invested in Duji in its early stages and received very generous returns.
Fang Zhuo said in surprise: "Huh? Yike invested in Sogou two years ago. Sooner or later there will be direct competition. Why didn't you take action before? Even starting from last month, the oppositional sentiment exaggerated by public opinion has been very obvious. "
"Internally, we believe that the overall trend is still going up." Xiong Xiaoge also reflected on himself last night and believed that he was still taking a chance and felt that the competition between Duji and Yike was still partial.
In this case, if Duji follows its layout, how can the stock price continue to rise?
"Hmm..." Fang Zhuo didn't know what to say for a moment.
Xiong Xiaoge asked: "Do you think Duji's market value can rebound?"
"As for the solution, it will definitely be solved later. As you said, the overall situation is still going up, but, Lao Xiong, you might as well take this money out after a while and invest in companies in our mobile Internet ecosystem. "Fang Zhuo said seriously, "Maybe it will be stronger."
Xiong Xiaoge pondered for a moment and raised a small question: "Sincerely? Are you not trying to trick me into getting on the boat?"
Fang Zhuo could only reply: "So you deserve it."
Even if Xiong Xiaoge deserves it, he still remains cautious. Whether the mobile Internet ecology can be played out or not, one has to observe and at least look at the news of Yike Investment.
In the morning, Fang Zhuo held a meeting and negotiated with friends and businessmen, but the main speech was given to Qi He, who was very energetic. He talked in detail about the situation from the perspective of competitors. The main reason was that it was difficult to break through.
Duji is having trouble breaking through, and its core business is caught in fierce competition. This is the best news.
“I heard that Duji has now set up a team to work on autonomous driving. After its attempts in multiple fields did not yield good results, it chose an industry with a long payback cycle.”
“I am very surprised about this.”
Qi He expressed his thoughts: “For cloud computing business, it also started very slowly. When we, Yike and Alibaba, began to occupy the domestic ecological niche, well, I can confidently say that it is very difficult.”
Zhou Hongyi laughed when she heard this: “According to what Mr. Qi said, Duji must have lost.”
“At least, on the mobile side, I don’t know how it will win.” Qi He said, “The PC side is deeply rooted, and the downward trend will be slower, but once the mobile side enters a faster downward channel, the trend cannot be reversed.”
Zhou Hongyi nodded and glanced at Mr. Fang.
In the entire search market, the current situation is that Duji is first, Sogou is second, and 360 is third. Yisou, which originally had a large share, has lost its water rapidly with the development of smartphones and has completely stopped moving.
Compared with the contribution of NetEase and Sohu in content construction, 360 provides a more solid market share, and a considerable part of it is a browser on the PC side.
Fang Zhuo was about to speak when his secretary suddenly approached and whispered a few words.
He took the phone with a little surprise and saw the news from the interview of Li Mingyuan, a senior executive of Du Ji. He bluntly shouted at him, thinking that Yi Ke and himself were hypocritical, and that Yi Ke abused its market position, and used rather fierce words.
Fang Zhuo simply read it and shared the news with everyone at the scene with a smile.
"I have met this Li Mingyuan several times. It is said that he is very important in Du Ji and is a big celebrity in front of Mr. Li." Zhou Hongyi talked about his impression, "Very young, it feels like the youngest one among the senior executives of Du Ji."
Fang Zhuo listened to such a label and looked at the name a few more times. Suddenly, he had a vague impression. Was it the youngest vice president who later resigned from Du Ji due to private economic dealings?
"It's normal for young people to have tempers. When I was young, I had a worse temper than him." Fang Zhuo put down his phone and ignored the accusations from the senior executives of the friendly business.
Qi He frowned, not very happy about it. If he wanted to accuse someone, let Robin come out and accuse him.
He thought that the business that the young man opposite him was in charge of happened to overlap with his own. In the battle for the ecological system, he would start by cutting down the branches of Du Ji.
