Chapter 568: Rebus, let's make a mobile phone
It was a pleasure to talk with Qiu Bojun.
Although Chen Yu came with the purpose of investing in WPS.
But WPS is a burden for Kingsoft at this time.
That is, there is no capital to develop it again, and it is impossible to open the market, and it will lose money every year.
If you are unwilling to give up, it is impossible to continue.
It can be said that Chen Yu's stake in WPS is something that both parties are willing to accept.
"Mr. Chen, thank you. ”
At the dinner, Qiu Bojun and Lei Jun toasted Chen Yu respectively.
The two parties completed the equity transfer ceremony in a very low-key manner.
In addition, Chen Yu also helped Jinshan raise the price a little, and finally Excellence sold it to Amazon for $120 million.
This undoubtedly helped Qiu Bojun and Lei Jun a lot.
But he knew in his heart that it was no wonder that Zhou Hong would follow Chen Yu.
You can easily earn tens of millions of dollars more for others, this is simply a humanoid money printing machine.
"You're welcome, I'm thanking you so much, I like your WPS very much, I'm afraid you won't be willing to take equity. ”
Chen Yu was really worried that Kingsoft would not sell WPS shares before.
Fortunately, Qiu Bojun figured it out.
Or, at this time, WPS is at its worst.
He didn't make a splash when he first came out, nor did he regain the market like he did in his previous life.
Rather than rotting in your own hands, why not attract a more powerful partner.
"Mr. Chen, don't say that, you can take a stake in WPS, which is also a big help for us Kingsoft. ”
Lei Jun also said.
"By the way, Mr. Lei, I heard that you are going to resign?"
After the sale of Excellence.com, Lei Jun suddenly achieved financial freedom.
At this time, Lei Jun had the idea of leaving Jinshan.
"I'm a little tired and want to take a break. ”
Lei Jun nodded.
The resignation report has been given to Qiu Bojun.
Although he asked Bojun to keep him for a while, Lei Jun had already made up his mind.
Of course, Chen Yu didn't want to keep Lei Jun.
He knew that in Jinshan, there was some conflict between the ideas of Qiu Bojun and Lei Jun.
Both are very capable people.
One mountain is difficult to accommodate two tigers, and it is not beautiful to let the two twist together.
"Didn't think about it. ”
Lei Jun shook his head and said, "I have to investigate." ”
"I really have to look into it, I have a suggestion. ”
"Mr. Chen, what do you say?"
Hearing Chen Yu's suggestion, Lei Jun became serious.
Although Chen Yu is a suggestion, who is Chen Yu?
It's not too much to call him an Internet boss now.
is not only an Internet tycoon, if he really takes it out, no one dares to object to calling him the first person on the Internet in China.
It's not just Huanyu Technology's market share.
What's more, their previous battle with Microsoft has established its prestige for Huanyu Technology.
In China, the only one who dares to argue with Microsoft and force Microsoft back is Huanyu Technology.
"I wonder if Mr. Lei has paid attention to the mobile phone?"
"Cell phone?"
Lei Jun was a little surprised: "We have been working on software before, and we haven't involved much hardware. ”
"Ray can always think about it. ”
Chen Yu said: "In the future, the mobile phone industry will inevitably be larger than the computer industry, but the mainstream in China is currently dominated by foreign brands, and our own brands have a lot of market space." Although it is difficult to enter this market at the beginning, as long as you continue to go, there will be huge gains in the future. ”
Chen Yu makes his own mobile phone, so he is naturally more aware of the mobile phone market.
Of course, he invited Lei Jun to make mobile phones together, not to let Lei Jun be his competitor.
Even if Lei Jun is his competitor, Chen Yu is not afraid.
He invited Lei Jun to enter the mobile phone market, just to let more mobile phone brands be cultivated in China.
Only the rise of major domestic mobile phone brands can drive away a series of international brands.
Not only can we drive them away, but we can also work together to enter the global market in the future.
This is what Chen Yu has been planning all along.
After all, Huanyu Technology alone is far from being able to.
Even if Huanyu Technology becomes the first in China in the future, it is far from enough.
China's mobile phone market is not only a supergiant, it also needs a series of mobile phone manufacturers to cooperate and compete.
Only in this way can China's mobile phone industry truly catch up with Europe and the United States and win the world.
"Thank you, Mr. Chen, I will definitely consider it. ”
Lei Jun thought seriously in his mind for a while, although he didn't make up his mind for the time being, Chen Yu knew that Lei Jun was a little moved. As long as he is excited, with Lei Jun's talent, he will definitely be able to make a lot of achievements in the mobile phone industry.
In this way, it is impossible to say that it has also changed the course of Lei Jun's history.
You must know that although Lei Jun entered the IT industry very early, he was a late bloomer.
A series of young talents have already become popular in the Internet field, and Lei Jun can only watch it.
It wasn't until 2011 that Xiaomi mobile phones were made, and they really showed their heads.
It's 2004, and it's going to be seven years before 2011.
Seven years is too long.
......
"Lei Jun, ordinary people can't get Mr. Chen's advice, to be honest, I'm red-eyed. ”
At the end of the dinner, Chen Yu returned to Shencheng.
Qiu Bojun said to Lei Jun.
He knows.
Although Chen Yu seems to be like Lei Jun's suggestion, if Lei Jun really wants to make a mobile phone, Chen Yu will definitely help.
This kind of help is something that no one else can have in their lifetime.
"Mr. Qiu, I understand, I will go to inspect the mobile phone market after tomorrow. ”
Lei Jun nodded.
Although he hadn't thought about making a mobile phone before.
But with such a great opportunity, why not do it?
Moreover, as Chen Yu said, the mobile phone market will be a trillion-dollar horror market.
In such a large market, you can give full play to your talents.
"That's good. ”
Seeing that Lei Jun listened, Qiu Bojun nodded.
Although the two had a conflict of ideas when they were in the company, from the perspective of personal relationship, Qiu Bojun recognized Lei Jun very much.
And Lei Jun still begged Bojun to recruit him into Jinshan back then, and he has always admired Lei Jun.
He felt that Lei Jun was a very talented young man, and in fact, Lei Jun also proved himself in Jinshan.
But, Lei Jun is so talented that he is a little embarrassed as the boss.
This time, Lei Jun left Jinshan, and Qiu Bojun also hoped that Lei Jun could have a good future.
In fact, Lei Jun is the same for Qiu Bojun.
"Ask Mr., I'm sorry, I ...... with you in Jinshan before"
Lei Jun said apologetically: "You pulled me into Jinshan back then, and without you, there would be no me." Now think about it, during this period of time in Jinshan, I am really young and vigorous, and I have not done many things well enough, please Mr. I'm sorry to you. ”
"Hehe, what are you doing with so much, your talent company is obvious to all, but I'm too traditional. I think about it now, if it weren't for my tradition, Jinshan wouldn't have missed so many opportunities. ”
The two opened their hearts, and their previous grievances were written off.
Then the two talked about the first time they met, and talked about the future of Jinshan.
For Jinshan, Lei Jun is still extremely emotional.
There is a lot of reluctance to leave Jinshan Lei Jun.
But he knows.
He had to leave Jinshan, which would be good for himself and Jinshan.
"What will Jinshan do in the future?"
Although he left Jinshan, Lei Jun still has great feelings for Jinshan.
At this time, although Jinshan was okay, it was restricted in all aspects.
In particular, several core businesses of Kingsoft do not have much breakthrough in the future.
The only thing I am looking forward to is the cooperation with the WPS of Huanyu Technology.
It's just that pinning hopes on others is always not conducive to the development of Jinshan.
This is also where Lei Jun is worried.
"Actually, I also felt lost. However, after chatting with Chen Yu for a while a few days ago, I have some ideas, and Jinshan may go to the mobile phone software in the future. ”
"Mobile app?"
Lei Jun raised his eyebrows: "Why is it a mobile phone again?"
"It's really about mobile phones. ”
Qiu Bojun smiled: "You say, will we be fooled by Chen Yu?"
