Liu Yueru counted in detail the projects that Yunyue Capital has invested in today, including AutoNavi Map, Fist Company, Qunar.com, Weihuihui, and the sports brand Under Armour.

He also has some shares of Apple and Tencent, which are also held by Yunyue Capital.

Youyou is now the leading Internet company in China, and the goal is too big, so Liu Yun sometimes prefers to cover himself up and let Yunyue Capital, which is controlled by his cousin, come forward.

Liu Yueru was a little puzzled: "I can't understand your behavior." Yoyo invested in 360 takeaway, and then asked Yunyue Capital to invest in Eleme. Don't you worry that one day, these two companies will fight each other for the market, and they will be incompatible?"

Liu Yun said as a matter of course: "First of all, I am just an investor, not an operator. Then, there is competition to be motivated. If a company doesn't even have the courage to compete, it's not worth my investment. Let alone...... I'm glad to see these two companies fight to the death. ”

After hearing this, Liu Yueru frowned and asked, "Why?"

Liu Yun smiled: "This is like a cunning emperor, although he keeps saying that he hopes that the ministers can get along, but in his heart he wishes that these ministers will fight each other, because he doesn't want these ministers to be monolithic and united." ”

Liu Yueru took a sip: "You really think of yourself as an emperor!"

Liu Yun smiled slightly: "It's the same for managing a large company. If the intrigue is controlled within a certain scale, it is to promote progress through competition. I'm pretty sure that with our population base in China, the market for food delivery platforms will be huge.

Since I am not going to get involved directly, I will never allow this market to be monopolized by one company.

360 and Ele.me, I will support both companies, but I must maintain a balance. Which one has a greater advantage, I will tilt the strength of support to the other.

In this way, no matter which one of them will rely on Yoyo, the more we will have the right to speak. ”

As he spoke, he took out his mobile phone from his pocket, opened the Youxin interface, clicked on the 'wallet' module, and the third-party service program below appeared in sight.

Liu Yun raised his finger and pointed it, and said with a smile: "Have you seen it, the links of Jingdong and Tmall are side by side, and in the future, I will let 360 takeaway and Ele.me also appear together." This may be a bad taste of his rich and willful, which makes these-for-tat competitors appear side by side on the Yoyo platform.

It's a spectacle.

He can even say in a big way: I gave you a chance to play fair.

"You have the means. Liu Yueru paused for a moment and said, "But Hongyi has already failed once that week, and you still trust him so much, just because he has been in Youyou's class for two years? I've left my job, or I wouldn't have been spared. ”

Liu Yun said disapprerovingly: "Everyone has a time to look away, and I think that if I have had the experience of failing to start a business, the possibility of success in the second business will be very high." You have to distinguish between these two investments.

Investing in 360 is because of Zhou Hongyi, this guy made me lose money for the first time in my life, and this time I had to let him spit it out with interest. As for investing in Ele.me, I am willing to support those young people who have entrepreneurial dreams. ”

Liu Yueru chuckled and said, "That's right, after all, you even looked away last time, and with the example of Baidu, it seems that you decided not to engage in e-commerce at the beginning." You always put the e-commerce gene in your mouth, and now that you think about it, there is some truth. ”

E-commerce genes are a very mysterious thing, which can only be understood, but it is difficult to say. Liu Yun will not feel that he can be invincible just because he is a traverser.

Every step he took was very deliberate.

Drip~

Liu Yun's letter rang, and it was Zhang Xiaolong who sent the message, with only a simple sentence on it: Mr. Liu, WeChat was officially launched yesterday.

It turned out that Tencent's fist product, Youxin, was officially launched yesterday.

The battle is about to begin, and it is already imminent.

Liu Yueru looked at Liu Yun and frowned slightly, and asked, "Is there something wrong?"

Liu Yun raised his head and said nonchalantly: "Youxin has an opponent. ”

Liu Yueru opened her mouth slightly and asked, "Is it Tencent's WeChat?"

Liu Yun didn't speak, just nodded.

Liu Yueru opened her mobile phone, clicked on the WeChat that had been downloaded, and said: "In the past period of time, Tencent has been vigorously promoting this product through all the channels at their disposal, and the QQ pop-up window is popping up every day, and hyping as long as the QQ membership card is registered."

I was curious, so I downloaded it and took a look. ”

Liu Yun didn't download it, so he took his cousin's mobile phone and observed it carefully.

As he observed, he carefully recalled the early WeChat in his memory.

The icons are a little different, there is no green background wall.

But its functionality has obviously improved a lot. There are moments of friends, red envelopes, people nearby, shake it, and be able to send voice and photos.

Obviously, many of WeChat's settings imitate the popular Youxin.

"There is no QQ friend import function? This shows that Brother Pony still has a hole card to use in the later stage. Liu Yun roughly observed this 'knock-off', thinking silently in his heart.

But he must admit that even if there is no import function of QQ friends now, this is still a very mature product, and it is obviously much better than the frequent occurrence of problems when it was just launched in the previous life.

"Bad news. Yesterday, it was also the first day of WeChat's launch, and whether it was Android or Apple mobile phones, its downloads were the highest on the day. ”

"I think there are a lot of people who are rushing to take a 7-day QQ membership card, after all, who doesn't love free things?"

"You're in a good state of mind, you're not nervous at all. ”

"The other party is a challenger, I'm in an advantage now, why be nervous?"

After Tencent grandly launched WeChat, the Chinese Internet, which had been calm for a few days, suddenly loomed with the smell of gunpowder.

On December 31, which is also the last day of the year, Liu Yun posted a meaningful Weibo: The shadow of Youyou, which has been trailing behind him, is tireless.

He brought a rhythm to the point, and also guided public opinion, so that those netizens who were good things could blame the penguin.

But Pony and his penguin, speaking in their usual style. I didn't hear what was going on outside the window, and I was working with my head down.

In the midst of such hustle and bustle, time passed quickly and stepped into 2011.

After New Year's Day, Ren Deqi of the Bank of Communications called Liu Yun to tell him that his proposal was formally approved by a vote at the meeting, but it was still going through the process, and the official document would come down in a few days.

Liu Yun said indifferently: "No hurry!"

The credit card repayment business is one of his hole cards, but it doesn't need to be played so quickly.

Now Liu Yun is looking forward to a real battle with the other party, and the so-called narrow road meets the brave wins. He, the original creator, is he still afraid that the imitator will not succeed?

Liu Yun changed his itinerary, originally planned to fly directly to Melbourne, and now plans to go to Hangzhou first, meet Zhang Xiaolong, and then rush back to the international airport in Shanghai.

Today, the Youxin office building in Hangzhou has become famous in the local area.

Its stylish exterior wall graffiti, coupled with the extremely popular product of Youxin, has made this building a tourist scene, and many people will take photos here.

It is now the season of the cold winter wax moon, Liu Yun is wearing a down jacket, a mask and a hat, and when he gets out of the car, he does not attract the attention of others.

"In the past few days of New Year's Day, how is the download of WeChat?" After Liu Yun saw Zhang Xiaolong, he didn't say hello, and asked straight to the point.

"Overall, the momentum is pretty good. Zhang Xiaolong thought for a while and said, "After all, Tencent is a big company, and it is normal for users to be curious about launching a new product in such a high-profile manner." However, the overall reputation is still not as good as our Youxin. ”

Liu Yun replied: "They haven't used their hole cards yet. I judge that with Ma Huateng's style of acting, a new version will be launched around the Chinese New Year. ”

Zhang Xiaolong asked: "Mr. Liu is referring to the QQ friend import function? This is not in a hurry, our mobile phone address book import function has basically met the user's needs for friends." ”

Liu Yun nodded and said: "Theoretically, it doesn't make much sense, but once WeChat has this function, the number of registered users will definitely increase a lot." ”

Zhang Xiaolong smiled bitterly and said, "I also have concerns about this, so I hope to discuss with Mr. Liu if there is a better way to deal with it." For example, the cooperation between us and the Bank of Communications is a good way to promote, but it will take a few days for the official announcement. ”

Liu Yunzheng was staring at Youxin's interface while pondering what to do. In fact, he is not in a hurry, feeling that even if he does nothing, Tencent will continue to make efforts, and it will take at least a year to achieve the current market share of Youxin.

But he enjoyed the feeling of confrontation and wanted to do everything in his power to kill this newborn, yet behemoth, product of another plane.

"That's it, little dragon. Liu Yun pondered for a while, frowned and stretched, "In our app store, there is no need to remove WeChat from the shelves, it seems that our pattern is too low." But you can play a trick, when netizens search for the word WeChat, the first one that pops up is Youxin, and the second is WeChat, and our rating is higher than that of the other party. ”

"Is this learning from Baidu?" Zhang Xiaolong replied with a slight stunnedness, "After all, our Yoyo App Store has basically seized the mobile terminal of most Android phones." ”

Liu Yun was silent for a while and gave his own analysis: "1. Our advantage is still very large, especially on the mobile terminal. Tencent's advantage is basically on the PC side, so the cost of promoting WeChat will be much higher than ours.

2. They will inevitably try to occupy a place in the factory settings of the smartphone. Apple can rule out, and we control the vast majority of Android phones, which means that from the app store to the mobile phone hardware, we have a firm grasp of the foothold.

It's like a net that envelops each other. ”

Zhang Xiaolong pondered for a few seconds, ready to add another fire: "Mr. Liu, we can come up with a premium clause for competing products! With the coverage of the Yoyo App Store on Android phones today, there is no problem at all!"

The so-called "competitive product premium clause" means that all the competing products of the Yoyo APP will be paid a certain degree of premium behavior when they are downloaded from the Yoyo App Store.

After all, this is Yoyo's own product, and it is feasible to carry out policy protection of appropriateness. It's like tariffs between countries, which play a role in protecting domestic products.

Liu Yun squinted his eyes slightly and thought about the feasibility of this matter, and said with some hesitation: "If it is feasible to target the Penguin family, but if it covers all the competitors' products on the Internet, then this hatred will be too much, and how many people will be offended." ”

Zhang Xiaolong smiled slightly, with the cunning color unique to the old fox in his eyes: "Mr. Liu, whether it is a competitor or not, this definition is completely ours." ”

Liu Yun suddenly realized that this chapter Xiaolong really deserves to be the strongest product manager in another time and space, and there is indeed a set.

"You can make a list of competitors' products, put WeChat on it, and then put a few apps from small companies to fill up the numbers. In this way, even if the world knows that we are targeting WeChat, it is difficult to say anything on the surface. After all, there is no real evidence. ”

Liu Yun suddenly had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and remembered an incident that had just happened.

The starting point Chinese network under Youyou is too hot, so not long ago, radio and television came to inspect and asked for some large depictions of male and female relationships to be removed from the shelves.

Yoyo has no choice but to do so.

"Xiaolong, there are a lot of instant messaging software similar to Youxin on the market today, but many of them are playing the edge ball of the relationship between men and women. We...... You can't help the abuse!"

Liu Yun whispered a few words, but Zhang Xiaolong's eyes became brighter and brighter.

Boss, you're still sinister!

......

Melbourne is a coastal city located in the south of Australia with beautiful scenery and a pleasant climate.

In the heart of the city's southeastern district, it is a veritable area of the wealthy, inhabited by gold-collar workers, wealthy businessmen, and celebrities of all kinds.

The area is surrounded by many famous schools, convenient shopping, and extremely advantageous geographical location. The villas here are exquisitely shaped, unique in style, and elegant in environment, which are attracted to wealthy people from all over the world, especially in Asia.

More than a year ago, Tian Fu, a Chinese diva, also spent $5 million to buy a villa mansion by the coastline here.

This villa has 6 bedrooms, 8 bathrooms, outdoor entertaining space, green lawns, and a separate swimming pool.

Looking through the large area of floor-to-ceiling glass, the blue and stunning sea level, and the lush green island forest, you can see it as far as the eye can see.

Liu Yun ended his meeting with Zhang Xiaolong in Hangzhou, and rushed back to Shanghai overnight to take an international direct flight to Melbourne, Australia.
