"Liu Yun, I have often listened to your cousin's song "Invisible Wings" recently, sometimes I feel like I am about to despair, but every time I hear this song, I feel that my body is full of strength. Maybe that's the charm of music. ”

On the way back, Liu Yun's words kept coming to Tian Fu's mind. This girl has also sung twice in public, and her level is not lazy, and her sense of rhythm is even much stronger than that of her cousin.

If Li Siyue's voice is clear and penetrating, then Tian Fu's voice is soft and sweet, making people feel like a spring breeze.

Liu Yun rubbed his eyebrows a little helplessly, feeling that he was a little ...... Far from it.

As the champion of the first Supergirl, even with the support of Mango Satellite TV, in this cruel entertainment industry, she is still like a snail, climbing up step by step with great difficulty.

He was even on a whim again, and he wanted to create another actress, and he felt that he was a little unrealistic.

When he got home, he took a cold shower and fell asleep.

......

Liu Yun got a message from Robin Li, who was far away in Yanjing. The Board of Directors has resolved that Baidu will be listed on the NASDAQ on August 5, 2005.

He slowly put his phone on the table, squinted slightly, and thought with one hand over his chin.

He knew what Lao Li meant. Now that the time has come to the end of June, the two companies each hold 50% of the shares, and the joint venture of Yoyo Browser can be officially announced.

This is great good news for Baidu's stock price, and Liu Yun also holds 300,000 Baidu shares in his hands.

If the closing price of Baidu on the first day of listing in the previous life, the value of these 300,000 shares was as high as more than 3,600 US dollars.

Just now on the phone, Liu Yun replied with a smile: "Mr. Li, we will announce the news in a few days." According to our agreement, your side should also start moving. ”

Robin Li also replied with a somewhat meaningful smile: "Mr. Liu, I understand. Our technical department is ready. ”

On June 30, 2005, Yoyo Network officially released a blockbuster information: Baidu Company obtained half of the ownership of Yoyo Browser for 5 million US dollars and 250,000 shares, and Yoyo Network still has the right to operate Yoyo Browser.

In the past six months, Yoyo Browser has been frantically sitting and promoting through various online and offline publicity modes.

Their only opponent is the IE browser that comes with the system, and Microsoft, which is far away across the ocean, will definitely not have the slightest willingness to do any publicity for IE browser.

Therefore, in Liu Yun's view, IE browser is an opponent who will only passively accept moves and will not take the initiative to make moves. Such an opponent is very cute and very likable.

When this news was announced, people realized that since Alibaba, Baidu has also been tied to the chariot of Yoyo Network.

Before Google entered China, today's search engine can be described as a dominant one, will the same situation appear in the browser market?

Not only Liu Yun, but other industry insiders do not regard the IE browser that comes with the system as an opponent.

Shanghai, Ctrip office building.

A female assistant ran to Liang Jianzhang's office in a bit of a panic, and said eagerly: "Mr. Liang, now when you type the word Ctrip in the Baidu search box, Yoyo Holiday will appear above us!"

Lao Liang put down the document in his hand, showed a hint of doubt, and asked, "Baidu search box?"

He thought of the old Li who was far away in Yanjing, this guy had an extraordinary dedication to bidding rankings.

According to the previous practice, if you don't pay Baidu money, in addition to directly entering the word Ctrip, you enter the words travel, vacation, ticket booking, etc., and you don't have to expect it to appear on the first page of the search.

"This is a guy who has fallen into the eyes of money. Lao Liang's heart quietly commented on that Lao Li.

He followed the meaning of the female assistant, typed the word Ctrip in the Baidu search box, and then found that the first item on the Baidu search page turned out to be Yoyo Holiday.com, which was very conspicuous, and the second item was Ctrip.

At this moment, Liang Jianzhang's expression was a little exciting, and he entered a few travel-related words, and the first page of Baidu's search interface, or even the second page, failed to find Ctrip, and their competitor Yoyo Vacation.com, when entering any travel-related words, will inevitably appear in the first three.

At this moment, Lao Liang finally realized the seriousness of the situation. He asked the assistant next to him, "Did this start today?"

The female assistant replied, "It started today." Yoyo Network has just announced an announcement that Baidu has acquired half ownership of Yoyo Browser for $5 million and 250,000 Baidu shares. At present, Yoyo Browser ranks second in terms of market share, second only to IE, with nearly 50,000 new installers per day. ”

Liang Jianzhang lowered his head and muttered for a few seconds, and said: "Today, Baidu's stock is less than $20, that is, Baidu has obtained half of the ownership of this potential browser at a price of less than $10 million." Maybe there are some private agreements between the two companies, and it's even very likely that they are directed against us. ”

The boss's words also woke up the female assistant, and she said: "Boss, that is to say, these situations today are not an accident, but an intentional act of Baidu?"

Liang Jianzhang hesitated for a few seconds, then took out his mobile phone and dialed Robin Li's phone: "Hey, Mr. Li, I'm Lao Liang of Ctrip." ”

Lao Li's voice came from the other end of the phone: "Mr. Liang, what day is today, you actually called me." ”

Load, keep loading!

Liang Jianzhang scolded secretly and said: "Baidu is about to go public, and I specially called to wish Mr. Li's stock price a long success." ”

"Then thank you Mr. Liang for your good words. Robin Li laughed.

"That's right. Liang Jianzhang turned his phone bill, and suddenly said: "Mr. Li, enter all the travel words in Baidu search, and you can't see the word Ctrip on the first two pages, even if you enter Ctrip, Youyou Holiday Network is still in front of us, what is the situation?"

Robin Li asked with a look of surprise: "There is such a thing, I will ask someone from the technical department to check it and reply to you after a while." ”

"Mr. Li, how long will it take. ”

"The people in our technical team are very busy, about half a month. ”

This guy must be doing Tai Chi, and he will inevitably find a reason to attack perfunctorily.

"Mr. Li, we will pay the bidding ranking promotion fee in the second half of the year in a few days. Liang Jianzhang said that he was ready to show softness appropriately.

"There's no PPC anymore. In order to better serve netizens, we at Baidu have canceled all bidding rankings on travel words. Robin Li said very seriously.
