38. The generosity of the cat factory

As soon as Lin Xiaoguang left, Han Xia fell into deep thought.

Xiu frowned slightly, her hands were twisted together, quite tangled, and after a long time, she let out a long breath, left the café, drove the car, and went straight home.

In the reception area of the company's CEO's office, Lin Xiaoguang met Yang Meng.

This DingTalk vice president is different from the eternal plaid shirt of the program ape, and also different from the eternal suit and tie of the business elite, he wears a casual suit, a light blue casual shirt on the upper body, and light gray slacks on the lower body, this outfit is not so formal, but it is not too homely.

In the same way, the meaning of the external expression is also very unusual, although it is for official business, but it is casual dress, which leaves room for it, that is, this may be just a courtesy visit, a temptation for a certain purpose.

There is no intention that this afternoon, it will be negotiated about anything, acquisition, financing or whatever.

Of course, it doesn't mean that nothing will be negotiated, after all, he came with some kind of motive, and it is impossible to return empty-handed.

Not only is he dressed very appropriately, but also he is the vice president of a company with 300 million users, and he comes to meet the CEO of a company with tens of millions of users.

Also, the identity of the vice president of DingTalk is very suitable, DingTalk does office socializing, Paipai does acquaintance socializing, looking at the inside of the cat factory, Taobao, Alipay, Tmall, Ahri Cloud, etc., these are not social, so they are not suitable, after all, DingTalk and Paipai have a common language.

Moreover, with the current size of the pie, it is not easy for the cat factory to send people from higher levels over.

The first contact, Jack Ma Xing rushed to the Yi faction, what is that like? He is the head of a hundreds of billions of US knife companies, and it is too condescending to come to the Yi faction at this moment, and similarly, he is noticed by the media and the goose factory, how will he interpret it? Moreover, the first contact has no results, which makes his face flutter?

Therefore, not only Jack Ma could not come, but many senior executives of the cat factory could not come, and finally searched the entire company and found that the DingTalk deputy was always the most suitable.

So, I picked Yang Meng, a good person.

For a moment, Lin Xiaoguang thought a lot, then stared at Mr. Yang, and started to blow each other in business as usual, smiling and saying hello: "Hello Mr. Yang, because of this affection, DingTalk has bitten 300 million users from WeChat, congratulations." ”

Yang Meng thought he was a stunned young man, but he didn't expect to meet, he was so old-fashioned, he was a little stunned, and the smile on his face was even worse, and he also smiled: "Don't dare to take credit, don't dare to take credit, it took nearly three years for DingTalk users to break 100 million, and it took six years to win 300 million users, or is Paipai more powerful, breaking 50 million in five days, and now it is estimated that there are 70 million, right?"

Paipai was launched on July 22, with more than 50 million users in five days, with an average of 10 million per day.

After the end of last week, at the beginning of this week, Weixin and Goose Factory completely blocked unlimited virtual links, and then the speed of new registrations plummeted by 50%, with an average of 5 million per day.

After the second phase of crowdfunding held a press conference on Tuesday, the number of registrations in a single day increased slightly, reaching 7 million in a single day.

It just ended today, so the number of registered users is almost 70 million.

This number is not only estimated, but also big data statistics and analysis, never underestimate the giants of the cat factory and the goose factory, they may not know the specific single-digit number, but roughly at the level of tens of millions, almost the door is clear.

Lin Xiaoguang smiled and admitted happily: "Yes, it is about to break 70 million." ”

Yang Meng's eyebrows jumped, although he had known this number for a long time, but at this moment he directly admitted that it still made him feel surreal, it had only been nine days, and it had exceeded 70 million?

"Congratulations, congratulations!"

At this moment, he doesn't know what it's like, it took nearly three years to break 100 million in Dingding, and it is estimated that it will take 20 days to break 100 million, and the gap is too big.

Is the DingTalk team really worse than the Paipai team? He didn't believe it.

But why are the results so different?

Come to think of it, one of the reasons is that DingTalk and QQ, WeChat are not direct competition at all, and even different fields, DingTalk is an enterprise-level market, belonging to the SaaS IM category, while QQ and WeChat are life social, compared to Aipai, which anyone can register, it is much more difficult to promote enterprise-level products DingTalk.

The other, the love pie scattering coins, is also incomparable.

But even if he knows this, he still has some taste in his heart, this young man is too violent, he doesn't follow the rhythm at all, he doesn't play cards according to the routine, he was born, and then the earth broke through, no one was caught off guard, and in a blink of an eye, the acquaintance social market was about to change.

Recently, he will be thinking, why can Aipai rise so quickly, why can a start-up bite so much meat from WeChat?

He thought for a long time before he got an answer.

The rise of the love faction is of course mostly a coin scattering behavior, but it is also indispensable to the fact that in real life, there are really many people who don't like weixin, or in other words, they don't like weixin to fill everything into it, and they are extremely domineering and arrogant.

That's why there is the success of Aipai.

But why is it a start-up of Yipai, and not a goose factory, he also figured it out.

Many years ago, the goose factory and the cat factory fought in various fields, and after a series of competitions, it was found that the two sides not only failed to occupy more markets in the inherent fields of both sides, on the contrary, the market share in these fields is still decreasing, and many unicorns have emerged.

Giant competition, protracted wars, countless investments, and disappointing results and countless losses.

Since then, the two sides have agreed not to enter each other's core areas.

For example, the goose factory does not do e-commerce, so it sold its own dismal business to the dog factory, and similarly, the cat factory does not do social, and it went online in Alipay's white-collar diary, but it was wildly criticized, and then Alipay was no longer socialized.

As for why it is not a company with a certain amount of capital such as a rice mill, but a start-up, he also figured it out.

The rice factory did social and did not do its best to promote, because they have a main business, social networking is a side business to some extent, success is an unexpected joy, failure will not be much frustration, after all, there is a goose factory in front of the road, the possibility of success is very small.

But why didn't the rice mill go all out?

It's very simple, the rice factory has the main business of mobile phones, and social is the main business of the goose factory, if he goes all out to promote, move the social piece of cheese, the goose factory will not sit idly by, and can also enter the field of mobile phones, support a company, and the rice factory to fight in the ring, although this possibility is extremely low, but the goose factory is rich, everything is possible.

This is also the reason why some enterprises with more capital never touch acquaintances to socialize, because the consequences of angering the goose factory are really serious.

Similarly, with the mountain of goose factories in front of them, start-ups dare not enter the field of acquaintance socialization.

In the end, no one did this except weixin.

But who would have expected the pie to appear.

At this moment, not only the cat factory is a little confused, but the rice factory must also be a little difficult to understand, why is the faction so easy to succeed, and in the same way, the inside of the goose factory may be even more unbelievable?

Lin Xiaoguang looked at Yang Meng, who was in a complicated mood, and couldn't help but smile.

Mr. Yang is very young, good-looking, and very affinable, but looking at his appearance, he knows that he is a relatively gentle character, not like a business elite at all, on the contrary, like a male postdoctoral fellow in science and engineering without baldness, with a relaxed smile on his face all the time.

After drinking a cup of tea, he picked up the purple clay pot, added a cup to Mr. Yang, and then went straight to the point.

"Mr. Yang, there is nothing to do in the Three Treasures Palace, I believe that you came here today not to chat with me, although I would like to communicate more with business seniors like you, but your time is very precious, I can't be too selfish. ”

"Let's just say it, is it for acquisition or investment this time?"

Yang Meng was thinking about how to introduce the topic next, but he didn't expect him to go straight to the point, and he was a little stunned for a while.

With a smile, he picked up the teacup, sipped it gently, and after putting it down, he looked at the latter with interest and asked, "Mr. Lin is so sure, I came here this time for acquisition or investment?"

"Or else?"

Seeing his look of approval, Yang Meng shook his head and smiled, and then he didn't plan to go around the bend anymore, so he simply said directly: "Wholly-owned acquisition, no matter how much it costs, you shouldn't agree, right?"

"Of course. ”

Lin Xiaoguang nodded without hesitation: "Paipai is my hard work, and I won't let go if I don't achieve a market value of hundreds of billions of dollars." ”

He was confident and had no doubt that Pai Pai would reach this level.

Yang Meng smiled dumbly, and was originally going to ask directly, but after thinking about it, he decided to think differently, so he said: "Then strategic investment, or financial investment, the choice is given to you, which do you think is better?"

Kicking the ball to himself, Lin Xiaoguang was a little surprised, and then accepted it directly, and asked: "Accepting the strategic investment of the cat factory means that the pie will stand in line, and I am not afraid of standing in line, because from beginning to end, Yipai has stood on the opposite side of the goose factory, but I want to ask, what can the cat factory bring to the pie?"

Yang Meng stared at him with a smile, and said word by word: "Taobao, Tmall, Alipay, UC, Weibo, Gaode, Eleme, Didi, Fliggy, Youku, Xiami, Shuqi, etc., the first-level traffic entrance of all channels." ”

As soon as these words came out, the air suddenly froze.

Lin Xiaoguang was also a little surprised, he never expected that the courage of the cat factory might be so great, and he almost spared no effort to help Pai Pai to promote, these channels add up to billions of users, although most of them are repeated, but the lineup is not ordinary luxury, and the power cannot be underestimated.

The support of the cat factory is so great that it is beyond his imagination.

His heart was beating violently, bang, yes, he was moved, if it weren't for the fact that Paipai didn't have a traffic entrance, as for spending a lot of money on advertising?

But, then, a hint of vigilance rose in his heart.

The conditions of the cat factory are so good, not to mention that they are hungry, even Didi, and they have never enjoyed it, and the conditions are too good, which also means that the appetite of the cat factory is not ordinarily large.

He calmed down instantly, this cake has thorns in it, I'm afraid I can't digest it.

With a chuckle, he looked at Yang Meng and said, "The One Faction has been established for less than two months, and I am only twenty-two this year, and I am very young, I am afraid that I will live up to the trust of your company." ”
