The fifth day of the Lunar New Year in 2003.

At this time, seven senior executives of Baidu have returned to Beishi.

"Everyone, I won't say anything like a happy New Year, and now I'm going to get into full work. ”

When others were still immersed in the atmosphere of the New Year, Li Yanhong convened a meeting of the company's senior management on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year.

"Huanyu Technology's market share of Yisou climbed by 2 points during the Chinese New Year, reaching 22%. Although there may be some discrepancies in the statistics, they are basically the same. ”

"I know that this kind of market share is not a particularly big threat to Baidu. But if we underestimate this threat, then we are finished. ”

"Now, let's talk about it. ”

Li Yanhong has always known the truth of being prepared for danger in times of peace.

Moreover, Huanyu Technology is not so easy to deal with.

After Li Yanhong finished speaking, Liu Jianguo, the chief technology officer, said: "Mr. Li, I think we can launch another business after Baidu's music business?"

"What business?"

"Image search. ”

As the person in charge of technology, Liu Jianguo is very good at technology.

At the same time, until the holiday, he has been thinking about how to make Baidu better serve users.

This image search is the business that Liu Jianguo thought of.

"The number of user searches for images on the Internet has exploded, and we can increase the business of image search. ”

"Approved. ”

Li Yanhong nodded.

Increasing business can increase users' stickiness to Baidu search.

Even though Baidu's music business was defeated by Yisou's YY Music, Baidu's music business still provided Baidu with a lot of IP streams. From this point of view, Baidu's music business is not a failure, and it can even be said to be a success, but it has not achieved the results they expected.

Increase image search, which will be a highlight of Baidu's search engine.

"Mr. Li, like Mr. Liu, I have been thinking about adding new business to Baidu recently. I've planned a business called "Know" here. ”

After Liu Jianguo, Guo Shan also took out a document.

"Know the business?"

Li Yanhong was puzzled.

"Knowing the business is a business of asking questions. For example, many users use search engines to search for various knowledge, for example, they will ask, who is the author of a certain department, what to do if the computer has a blue screen, and how to set tags in office documents...... and so on. Sometimes in a search engine, they can find the answer they are looking for. But such answers are more troublesome to find, and some, if not particularly troublesome, answer different questions than the questions they asked. However, if you specifically do a business that you know, the user asks a question, and then the user answers accurately, and gives the user a certain reward for answering. I believe that this will be a great help for our search engine. ”

"Very good. ”

Li Yanhong nodded appreciatively: "This business is very groundbreaking, Guo Dan, you are fully responsible." ”

Li Yanhong is very researched about search.

Although he didn't think of [knowing] this business, he knew that as soon as this business came out, it would definitely make Baidu search go to a higher level.

"Mr. Li, I also have a business here. ”

Chief Architect Lei Ming also said.

"What business?"

"Encyclopedia. ”

"Encyclopedia, is it an introduction to the pedigree?"

"Almost. ”

Lei Ming nodded: "This business is the same as knowing, and it can be fully edited by users." For example, we can build an Internet Baidu, generally if you want to understand the Internet, he can only slowly look for information on the Internet. But if we create an encyclopedia, we can aggregate all kinds of information about the Internet. When the user searches for the keyword of the Internet, our encyclopedia appears in front of his eyes, and the user can directly get the knowledge he needs from Baidu......"

The encyclopedia business has some similarities with the knowing business, both of which are known by users.

But encyclopedia is not the same as knowing.

Knowing is biased towards one problem, but encyclopedia is a spectrum of more knowledge.

But whether it is known or encyclopedia, as long as these two are launched, they will definitely be liked by countless users.

This is because it can drastically reduce the time it takes them to acquire knowledge.

"Mr. Li ......"

I have to say.

Although Baidu's seven senior executives are not the opponents of Huanyu Technology in this part of operation.

But when it comes to technology, it's Huanyu Technology.

I was a little overwhelmed by the operation of Huanyu Technology before, but when I calmed down, several senior executives immediately showed their uniqueness. Whether it's Liu Jianguo, Lei Ming, or Guo Dan...... Several of their businesses are extremely eye-catching. These businesses alone, some of which can be taken out independently, can incubate a big project.

And these projects are all concentrated in a search engine at this time, and the energy generated by him will be multiplied.

......

After discussing with Wu Kai, Wu Kai returned to the deep city.

Chen Yu spent the New Year in Xinfeng with peace of mind before returning to Huanyu Technology.

However, when Chen Yu returned to Huanyu Technology, Zhang Jianming came to Chen Yu's office for the first time with great worry.

"Mr. Chen, Baidu has a new business. ”

"What business?"

"Baidu launched three new businesses at once. ”

"Three new businesses, so many?"

Chen Yu was a little strange and opened Baidu.

All at once he understood.

"Picture, know, encyclopedia...... It's really three big businesses. ”

This is also one of Baidu's most classic businesses in the previous life.

Whether it is image search or knowing, encyclopedia business, it can be said that this is the cornerstone of Baidu's search engine.

Without them, Baidu would be equivalent to an incomplete Baidu.

However, this is not the most important thing.

The most important thing is that after Chen Yu opened Baidu, he saw a more awesome business.

[Baidu, you know. ] 】

These are the eight words written on the edge of Baidu's search box.

Strictly speaking, these eight words are not Baidu's new business.

But seeing these eight words, Chen Yu knew that these eight words were even more terrifying than the previous three major businesses.

You must know that in his previous life, Baidu relied on these eight words to perfectly beat his fame.

At this point, all users will use Baidu when they use search engines.

As for why, as with this sentence, you will know it after a hundred degrees.

Yes.

If you have any questions, you can Baidu it.

If you want to know something, you can also Baidu it.

In short, no matter what you encounter, you can know everything with a Baidu click.

In fact, Baidu has done just that.

As long as the user is on Baidu, there is nothing they can't search.

As long as they are Baidu, there is nothing they don't know.

These eight words can be seen as Baidu's advertising words, and they can also be seen as their brand.

It can be said that these eight words are Baidu's real killer moves.
