Chapter 682(1/2)
Monopoly is the best way to achieve high profits.
However, monopoly also has disadvantages, and the legal risks are too high.
Developed countries crack down on monopolies very severely.
If you can't afford monopoly, you can only play with innovation.
Through more innovative, optimized, and high-end products, we can improve our competitiveness and defeat our opponents. Therefore, Silicon Valley giants invest heavily in technology research and development, which is a magic weapon for companies to compete in the market.
It's different in China.
There is no antitrust mechanism.
If you can play monopoly, who can play innovation? How can innovation be as easy as monopoly to make money?
Therefore, domestic Internet companies are not the same as Silicon Valley. They are not very interested in technology research and development. They are more interested in how to strengthen their monopoly position through various means.
They even spent tens of billions of dollars on crazy subsidies.
Spending money on subsidies is much more powerful than R&D.
By spending money on subsidies and completing the market monopoly, you can end the subsidies, dominate the market, and do whatever you want to cut leeks.
The innovation model is different. It requires continuous research and development and innovation every year. Even giants like Microsoft, Google, and Amazon that are almost monopolies only continue to maintain their appeal to users through innovation. They are technological monopolies.
Non-market monopoly. If you want to maintain your position, you must continue to increase investment in research and development every year.
Silicon Valley has a global market, but there is only a domestic market in China. However, Internet giants with the same size and scale as Silicon Valley giants can also appear in China. The main reason is that they rely on the monopoly mechanism.
Among the Fortune 500, there are more Chinese companies every year. However, among the top 500 companies, other countries are global companies. Except for a few Chinese companies, the rest are global companies.
A real local company.
Zhou Buqi interviewed Guo Dan, and what she said was very reasonable - "Follow the trend of the times and do legal and reasonable business."
The nature of monopoly is the general trend and general trend of domestic giant enterprises.
Ziweixing’s determination to take root in technology remains unchanged, but the rational use of the monopoly principle cannot be ignored and must be placed in the highest position.
Without monopoly genes, it would be difficult for Ziweixing to become a giant.
Xu Liangjie and Jiang Chengan have both studied, lived, worked, married, and had children in the United States for many years... their thinking and ideas are based on the Silicon Valley innovation model.
This is of course very good and correct.
But this does not belong to the current domestic Internet environment.
Failure to make reasonable use of monopoly advantages and lack of a clear understanding of monopoly will hinder Ziweixing.
Look at Zhang Chaoyang upstairs, traveling around, enjoying beautiful women and enjoying life. But when it comes to the external business strategy of the open platform, he doesn’t need to look up any information. He can easily make a clear judgment on the domestic situation. Based on the domestic
The situation and the major Internet companies' fear of monopoly provide the correct sales plan.
These two returning elites were brutally slapped in the face.
Zhou Buqi held this secret meeting just to see what their opinions were, whether they should remove these two people from their posts!
"Removed?"
This statement surprised a few people.
Even Shi Jinglin was a little unsure, "Now? Withdraw Xu Liangjie?"
Guo Pengfei advised: "I don't think we can withdraw! Now is the critical stage of financing. Xu Liangjie is a Silicon Valley executive and an industry elite. His existence is a huge attraction to capital. I think not only cannot we withdraw, but we must keep it. At least.
We’ll see what happens after the B round.”
Ji Zian nodded, "It's okay for Jiang Chengan. He just joined the job and is still in the probation period. He just made a mistake. It's not a big problem to be dismissed and change to another position. But Xu Liangjie is different. He has a high position. What's wrong with him being dismissed?"
Arrangement? Demotion and work arrangement? He must have been unbalanced and resigned."
Shi Jinglin said: "Yes, even if he doesn't resign, do we still dare to use him? What if he feels resentful and does something that is not good for the company? We can only fire him."
Ji Zian continued: "I told He Yang about this in private, and I think his opinion is very pertinent. Xu Liangjie has only been employed for one year, which is too little time. One year may be just enough for him to get familiar with the employees and master them.
business, know the company’s values, and keep up with the boss’s
Idea. Unless a senior executive of this level makes a particularly serious mistake, he or she may leave within one year. Otherwise, he or she must stay for at least two years. It doesn’t matter if the first year is mediocre. It mainly depends on the quality of the second year. The second
If it hasn’t worked in a year, then there’s nothing to say.”
Zhou Buqi waved his hand and said casually: "Let's just have a breather and exchange opinions internally. Classmate Yiming, what do you think?"
"I don't think we can withdraw." Zhang Yiming paused, "I have a different argument than theirs. Xu Liangjie didn't do too well, but it wasn't too bad either. He basically completed his job, and he worked very hard every day.
I only sleep for 4 hours, and I can’t do it anyway. And the most fundamental reason is, if he is removed, who will replace him?"
Zhou Buqi clapped his hands and said with a smile: "That's what I want to say! Who should I replace you with? Of course it's you! Who else would you choose, classmate Yiming?"
"Me?" Zhang Yiming was stunned for a moment, then shook his head, "No, I can't."
Zhou Buqi was speechless, "If you can't do it, who can? You can't find someone from outside to come in, right? The next business manager can only be promoted from within us."
Ji Zian smiled and said: "I think Yiming is good. Everyone sees the results on Friendship Network."
Shi Jinglin said very strangely: "Zhang Yiming, aren't you the second largest shareholder after Zhou Buqi? Don't you hold 120 million shares? I only have 5 million shares. If you don't want to join, who will? Should I?"
It’s not that I can’t do it, it’s just that…”
"Shut up!"
Zhou Buqi was angry and funny, and could do nothing to this woman.
With your level, you are already a high-level CEO of a business group, and you still want to be promoted. Are you crazy?
Shi Jinglin was not convinced and raised her neck, "What's wrong with me? You look down on women? You are sexist!"
Zhou Buqi had a headache, "We're talking about business, please be quiet for a while."
Everyone here is an outsider and knows the private relationship between these two people.
Seeing them flirting, they burst into laughter.
After a while, Zhang Yiming said slowly: "I'm not rejecting it, it's true... I feel that I still need time. Now that Friends.com has launched two major businesses, Taobao Channel and Open Platform, I have to grab it."
Zhou Buqi said: "Then do what you said, don't move Xu Liangjie for now, give him some time, wait until the B round of financing is over, and then look at it. Yiming, you have to be prepared. If you remove him, you
You have to take over. You have to train your successor well. I think Tang Binchen can do it. He is one of our own. As for the open platform... you see how to deal with it."
Zhang Yiming took a deep breath and nodded.
Shi Jinglin blinked a few times, "Is this considered an unofficial decision?"
Zhou Buqi smiled and said, "Yes, it's been decided by default."
"Aren't you even given a chance to compete fairly?"
"No!"
Zhou Buqi waved his hand to signal the meeting to end.
Shi Jinglin stayed, not very happy, "Why don't you promote me?"
Zhou Buqi almost cried, "Auntie, can you be more modest? Do you think your level can compare with others? Zhang Yiming's daily hobbies are reading, working, and writing code. What are you doing? Are you picking up girls?
star!"
Shi Jinglin sat on the sofa dully, silent for a while, then turned to look at him, biting her red lips, "Are you leaving tomorrow?"
"Yes, a flight ticket at noon."
"Are you taking Yang Mi with you?"
"I won't take it anymore."
"Then take her home tonight and I will sleep with you."
"OK."
"That……"
Zhou Buqi was a little funny, "You're hesitant, just say it if you have something to say?"
Shi Jinglin felt a little guilty and moved towards him, close to his face, her eyes full of expectation, "Zhou Buqi, I want to make friends with her, is that okay?"
"who?"
"Yang Mi!"
"Real or false?" Zhou Buqi was very surprised. "She is just a small star. She has never read any books. What kind of friends do you have? Can we chat together?"
Shi Jinglin glanced at him and said, "Didn't you say that you and she are also friends, and you asked her to call you brother."
"That's not what I meant by this friend."
"That's not what I meant."
"Damn!" Zhou Buqi looked contemptuous, "Are you still addicted?"
Shi Jinglin said: "I think we work well together. She is gentle and obedient. She is pretty and has a good figure. She is quite good."
Zhou Buqi said angrily: "She is an actor, a professional actor. In school, she is taught to emancipate her nature every day. What are you thinking about? Let her meow like a cat, crawl like a dog, and crow like an old hen. That's acting, do you understand?"
