At 8:50 a.m. on Saturday, Li Mu came to Baidu's office address in Yanjing, Baidu, which is developing rapidly and expanding, even on weekend mornings, there are still hundreds of employees working overtime, and the technology and product departments of Internet companies are almost normalized, and Li Mu has long been used to it.

The girl at the front desk heard that he came to find Jack Zhou, so she hurriedly took him to a conference room, Jack Zhou had greeted her before, and today there was an important guest to come to talk about cooperation, and people should be notified as soon as they came.

Li Mu sat in the conference room for just two minutes, a man in his thirties, looking Sven, wearing a suit and leather shoes, and rimless glasses pushed the door in.

Li Mu nodded: "It's me." ”

Jack Zhou was stunned.

He communicated with Li Mu several times on the email, and combined with the two projects operated by Li Mu, he speculated about Li Mu with his own intuition, and always felt that this man must be between thirty and thirty-five years old, must have overseas study and even work experience, and is even likely to have worked in a world-renowned Internet company, but he never dreamed that the other party looked so young that he seemed to be only about twenty years old?

Although he was surprised, Jack Zhou quickly calmed down, shook hands with Li Mu warmly, and said politely, "Mr. Li, wait a while, our VP will come over immediately." ”

VP is the abbreviation of vice president, and industry insiders like to use English abbreviations to reflect the tall, and Li Mu has long been accustomed to this. So he nodded. Didn't say much.

Jack Zhou is the head of the investment side. Under normal circumstances, he negotiates with the investee and conducts a game at the capital level, but he has communicated with Li Mu several times, but he has not been able to find any breakthrough point in Li Mu, which has always made him feel a little frustrated in his heart.

A few minutes later, three middle-aged men and a woman of twenty-seven or eighteen years old arrived in the conference room. Jack Zhou hurriedly made an introduction, focusing on VP Tan Yaocheng.

Li Mu once heard of this person's name, in Baidu did 06 years, after Baidu went public, he retreated, and then became an angel investor, invested in many projects and was relatively successful, can be regarded as a big winner in life.

Tan Yaocheng didn't expect Li Mu to be so young, in fact, he also set a face image for Li Mu in his heart, but he didn't expect that there would be such a big deviation, similar to Jack Zhou. He was also shocked for a long time before he accepted this reality.

Jack Zhou also introduced others to Li Mu, such as technical director and operations director. Li Mu didn't pay much attention to remembering their names, because he knew that there was only one person he wanted to conquer at the moment, and that was Tan Yaocheng.

As for Baidu's technical director and operation director, do they have a relationship with themselves? Only if they have reached a financing agreement with Baidu, these people will work.

Tan Yaocheng is also a person who pays attention to efficiency in doing things, so after a simple politeness, he began to get straight to the point: "I invited Mr. Li to come over today, mainly because of Baidu's interest in the two websites of Yiting.com and Tieba, Jack Zhou should have talked to you before, we have the intention of packaging and acquiring these two businesses, and this intention is very sincere, I don't know Mr. Li's ......"

Li Mu smiled slightly, and interrupted him with a somewhat rude raise of his hand: "Mr. Tan, regarding the package acquisition, I have made it clear in my email with Mr. Zhou a long time ago that I do not accept any company's intention to package and acquire. ”

Tan Yaocheng didn't expect that Li Mu almost didn't even think about it, and even directly refused to package and acquire Baidu without even asking about Baidu's current intention price, such a young man, why would he do things so decisively, even to the point of being a little arbitrary? Is he too confident in himself, or too confident in the future of Yiting.com and Tieba?

Although Li Mu refused so simply, Tan Yaocheng still did not give up, he smiled and said: "Mr. Li, don't you want to hear our latest offer? Some time ago, we communicated with investors in Silicon Valley, and the current offer is much higher than the previous offer given to you by Jack Zhou. ”

Baidu is very optimistic about the two businesses of Yiting.com and Tieba, especially Tieba, which is simply a community artifact, with it, there is a giant magnet that gathers users, combined with Baidu's advantages, it will inevitably become a leader in the community field, and they also made the current situation of these two businesses, analysis and evaluation into an English version, sent to investors in Silicon Valley, and finally investors gave a clear reply: If Baidu can package these two businesses, investors will increase Baidu's capital by 10 million US dollars.

It can be seen that investors are also very optimistic about the prospects for the integration of these two businesses with Baidu.

Tan Yaocheng already had a new offer for Li Mu before he came in, 25 million yuan, after tax, this price even he felt his heart beat faster, a project that was founded for a few months, such a high value, it was a miracle in the Internet field.

As a result, I never dreamed that Li Mu said indifferently at this time: "Believe me, Mr. Tan, with Baidu's current size, you can't afford to buy it at a price." ”

Several people in the conference room looked embarrassed.

Tan Yaocheng was shocked again, what is the origin of this kid? Without asking the quotation, he just said that Baidu couldn't afford it, which is too arrogant, right?

However, Tan Yaocheng combined with the information revealed by Li Mu before, and probably guessed Li Mu's true intentions, only financing, not selling.

Tan Yaocheng asked: "Mr. Li is very optimistic about these two businesses, and what do you think are the future development prospects of these two businesses?"

"Let's put it this way. Li Mu leaned forward slightly, and said to a few people with full confidence: "If I compare the future prospect to a grenade, then the easy to hear net is just a fuse pull ring on the grenade." ”

Speaking of this, Li Mu's fingers were drawn into a circle, and said: "Please note, it's just the pull ring on the fuse that is on the finger and looks like a key ring, it is an entry point I found from the field of online music audition download, as for the paste bar, it is the fuse of the grenade, and the fundamental purpose of the existence of the easy listening network and the post bar is to detonate the real grenade, so, you ask me how big the future development prospects are, you can make a comparison between the power of the fuse and the grenade." ”

Tan Yaocheng frowned, the fuse is just a fuse, how powerful can it be? It's just a negligible amount, how can it be compared with a grenade? To understand it in another way, Li Mu means that the current easy-to-listen network and post bar are nothing at all, and the two together are just a fuse of his grenade, this kid is so arrogant at a young age, is this really good?

Tan Yaocheng decided to ring the alarm bell for the young man in front of him, so he said in a tone of a passer-by: "Although the model idea of the post bar is very good, but after all, you lack sufficient traffic and financial support, once this model is imitated by enterprises or individuals with a lot of traffic and funds, I believe that it will soon surpass your post bar, and it will not be able to suppress it." ”

The so-called enterprise with a lot of traffic and capital in his mouth is actually talking about Baidu itself, and the implication is nothing more than a warning to Li Mu that if he rejects Baidu, Baidu can catch up with him in minutes.

Li Mu said: "If there are companies or individuals who want to imitate my stickers, it is really not difficult, but even if they imitate the stickers after me, they are just followers with no goals." ”

As soon as the word "follow the wind" came out, everyone could feel the ridicule from Li Mu, in fact, when they saw Yiting.com and Tieba, their first thought was to follow the trend and launch similar products......

At this time, Li Mu ignored the embarrassed faces of the few people present, and continued: "If any of you here have been paying attention to the post bar, then he must know how fast the product development speed of the post bar is, within more than a month, we not only launched the singer post bar, but also launched the post bar sign-in function, membership upgrade system, and then, we launched the star post bar including all film and television singers, variety show hosts and other celebrities in the two sides of the strait, followed by a more powerful function, that is, the user self-built post bar!" What companies can do with such a fast and high-quality product update speed? In other companies, it will take at least half a year or even longer to do it, right?"

What Li Mu said is indeed true, the rhythm of this kind of product development is simply inhuman, the reason why the post bar can be done is because Li Mu understands the success or failure of various Internet products in later generations, and every function he let Kong Lingyu develop is a successful experience accumulated by others for a long time in the previous life.

Tan Yaocheng also fell into contemplation, although Li Mu's words were harsh, but they were out-and-out facts, the update speed of the product is so fast, and the functions of each update are almost amazing, this kind of person is really difficult to imitate, just imitate someone else's 1.0 version, someone else's 3.0 has already come out, if you don't have such a strong product development team, you will never be able to catch up.

Li Mu saw that Tan Yaocheng didn't speak for a long time, so he cleared his throat and said: "Just now Mr. Tan talked about traffic and funds, you may not know something, now there are more than 4 million registered users of Tieba, and more than 200,000 daily active users, such a fast growth rate, are you still worried about the problem of traffic? Even if others have more powerful traffic, but without such a high conversion rate and viscosity of Tieba, it is basically useless." ”

"In addition to traffic, there is also capital, I admit that capital is the bottleneck of my next development, but I think financing is also to make up for this problem, I believe that even if I don't take Baidu's money, I still don't have to worry about financing." ”

Tan Yaocheng crossed his hands on the table, glanced at Li Mu, nodded slightly, and asked, "If you raise funds, what are your conditions?" )
