Li Mu and Geng Yang unexpectedly collapsed.

Because Li Mu didn't want to talk to him at all.

Don't say that you don't agree, Zhao Kang is now worth tens of millions, and it is impossible for him to agree.

Besides, the uncut version of "Old Boy" has already premiered, and Li Mu will definitely not delete the scenes about Jishen Lao Baigan when replaying, because then everyone will realize that they have confessed to Jishen Lao Baigan, and it will make a big advertisement for him.

Therefore, Li Mu must stick to the end on this issue, and no TV station can cut even a frame of his own film.

Geng Yang hated Li Mu to death, but he couldn't stop "Old Boy" from being rebroadcast on Shonan Satellite TV at half past seven, and tens of millions of users opened Shonan Satellite TV to watch, so that the ratings of Shonan Satellite TV reached 10%, this data made the leaders of Shonan Satellite TV feel inspired, and the key interface person who got the priority rebroadcast right of "Old Boy" from Makino Image at an affordable price of two million was also praised by the leaders of the station.

Li Mu asked Ning Hao to inform the major TV stations tomorrow morning that from tomorrow to the end of the first month, during this time, the major TV stations can arrange the replay time and number at will, and there is no need to communicate with Muye Imaging to confirm, but it is still necessary to ensure that one thing cannot be cut.

At the same time, Li Mu told Zhao Kang that the navy should not stop fueling the troubles, and let him control the rhythm by himself. 、

After arranging these two things, Li Mu didn't pay attention to the follow-up development of "Old Boy", because he found that a new Internet craze had begun to stir up.

According to data from Yiting.com, in the past two days, the number of online music auditions has skyrocketed to an unprecedented height, and at the same time, the number of MP3 downloads has also increased significantly compared to the past.

These two data, on the surface, are because of Du Wei's "Hurry That Year" and "In My Singing", two popular works, but Li Mu smelled a different atmosphere from them.

Behind the data often shows deeper details, Li Mu believes that since 2002, the number of computer hardware and MP3 hardware has begun to increase significantly, especially MP3, this kind of thing in 2001 is still a rare item with thousands at every turn, but during the Spring Festival, the price suddenly began to loosen the ice, and now you can buy a good MP3 for seven or eight hundred yuan, and you can get it for four or five hundred yuan.

Li Mu realized that the spring of MP3 hardware is coming, and the spring of Yiting.com is also coming.

Although Li Mu has long had the idea of selling all the Easy Listening Network to Baidu, but this does not prevent him from taking advantage of the MP3 popularity, making the Easy Listening Network more valuable, if Baidu regards it as the key to the next breakthrough, then he will buy 500 million, he will buy 100 million, if it is hot, he will still buy 2 billion.

In view of this situation, Li Mu suddenly wanted to strike while the iron was hot in the MP3 field.

The degree of development and popularity of the industry often depends on a company, a product, just as the MTK system gave birth to the entire Chinese copycat machine industry, iPhone led the global smart phone innovation boom, if this time easy to hear network can find the right opportunity to exert force, it is likely to quickly promote the development of domestic MP3 software and hardware, so that its development pace is much faster than in the previous life.

Li Mu thinks that the core of the MP3 boom is hardware, followed by software, if MP3 players can quickly reduce prices and quickly penetrate into ordinary users, they will definitely be able to bring MP3 downloads to heat.

If the hardware price is reduced, Li Mu also has a general plan, now is the era of opaque hardware profits, the profit margin of the hardware is larger, if you find a company that can produce MP3 in the name of the easy listening network, customize a large number of MP3 players named after the easy listening network, and then dump it to the market at the cost price of absolutely not making a penny, the first benefit will be that it will directly increase the number of users of the MP3 player; secondly, it will force other MP3 manufacturers to reduce prices, thereby stimulating a large-scale wave of price reduction, and quickly reduce the price of MP3 and the entry threshold, just like Shenzhou hit the notebook market, and I will do more than that.

If the MP3 player can be reduced to the price level of the previous life in 2003 in 2002, then MP3 online audition and download, will become one of the hottest Internet fields in 2002, and now easy to listen to the network, in order to solve the streaming media playback, page UI, user experience, product functions, etc., ahead of the peer opponents more than one era, so, once MP3 is hot this year, easy to listen to the network will be the biggest beneficiary.

Li Mu almost had an impulse, hurriedly went to Shenzhen City, where to find a few suitable foundries, seize the time to customize a batch of MP3 out, the estimated cost should be controlled within 300 yuan, the first batch of customized 100,000 units, but only need 30 million, and you can also talk to the manufacturer about the specific settlement method, for a certain period of time, so as to reduce capital investment.

However, Li Mu quickly put up with his impulse again, although there is no problem in doing it now, but he will waste a great opportunity - Taobao.

Just imagine, if Taobao is established, with Alipay as a payment channel, and hundreds of thousands of MP3s sold at factory cost price are sold on Taobao, how much will it promote Taobao?

Now that Alipay has more than 10 million users, maybe 100,000 MP3s with factory prices can be sold out within a few days, which will also bring great help to Taobao's reputation and popularity, how can Li Mu miss such a good opportunity?

It seems that it is indeed imperative to do Taobao!

Li Mu can only temporarily seal his MP3 plan, return to Yanjing after the year, and seize the time to find Liu Qidong and Senior Brother Liu, and work together on Taobao.

……

On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, Lin Qingya suddenly called Li Mu, she said that she attended a high school reunion last night, and a high school classmate heard that she was in Makino Technology, and recommended her cousin who had just returned from abroad, it is said that her cousin went to the United States for further study in 91 years, and obtained a master's degree and a doctorate in computer science at the University of Minnesota, and he studied until 98 years before starting to work, and he has only done it in one company at present, which is the famous overseas Google.

As soon as Li Mu heard the word Google, a strong belief in being a programmer arose.

In the minds of most computer technicians, the company with the highest belief is Google, which even Apple can't compare, Google has too many products that affect the world, and there are too many technology bulls that can influence the world.

Li Mu asked Lin Qingya: "What is that person's name?"

Lin Qingya said: "His name is Fang Xudong. ”

Fang Xudong?

Li Mu's eyes lit up, this person he had heard of in his previous life, he was Google's most awesome Huaxia software engineer, Fang Xudong returned to China in 2005 to serve as CTO of a large Internet company, becoming one of the top ten CTO recognized in the industry, and he is an absolute technical master.

As soon as he heard that Lin Qingya and Fang Xudong knew each other, Li Mu immediately asked: "Is this Fang Xudong preparing to return to China for development?"

"It's not. Lin Qingya said: "My classmate told me that he intends to return to China, but has always lamented that there is no good Internet company and employment environment in China, but when he went home to visit relatives during the Chinese New Year this year, he talked about our company in front of my classmate, and it is said that he still recognizes our company very much, so my classmate heard that I work in our company, so I want to introduce him to me, and their family also hopes that he can return to China to work." ”

Li Mu understood, Fang Xudong only has the idea of returning to China now, but there has been no good choice, so he did not come back until 2005 in his previous life, however, there was no Makino Technology in the previous life, I don't know if Makino Technology in this life can impress this technology master?

So Li Mu asked, "Have you met him?"

"Not yet. Lin Qingya said: "I got his contact information, but I haven't made an appointment with him, I don't understand technology, I'm afraid that the chat will not be good but let people lower their impression of our company, my idea is, Mr. Li, can you take the time to come over in person, if he is really powerful, we will be able to make it much easier at the technical level in the future." ”

Lin Qingya has long been at Li Mu's request to look for suitable technicians all over the world, and after the year, Storm Entertainment will test "Miracle MU" internally, Li Mu also wants to do e-commerce, and the talent gap in technology is too big, if you can't find a technical bull who can take charge of the team alone, many of Li Mu's businesses will not be able to carry out.

This time Fang Xudong's information was an unexpected gain, and Lin Qingya was afraid that she would not be able to take him, so she called Li Mu for help.

Li Mu agreed without hesitation, and asked her to make an appointment with Fang Xudong, as early as tonight, Lin Qingya's house is in Lunan, not far from her home, and it can be reached by driving for a few hours.

Lin Qingya immediately went to contact Fang Xudong, because there was an acquaintance who introduced him, and the acquaintance was also Fang Xudong's cousin, so Fang Xudong's attitude on the phone was very friendly, when Lin Qingya explained the company he worked for, and told him that his boss wanted to come and talk to him in person, Fang Xudong was also surprised, he had a certain understanding of Makino Technology, but it was only at the business and technical level, and he did not understand its other backgrounds in detail, however, the valuation was one billion +The boss of the company wanted to see him in person, which showed the sincerity of the other party, so Fang Xudong agreed without hesitation.

The time was about seven o'clock in the evening of the same day, and the location was in a relatively high-end hotel in Zao City, south of Qilu, Lin Qingya told Li Mu the address and time, and Li Mu explained to her: "You help me book a hotel in the city, and I will stay in Zao City for one night tonight." ”

Li Mu, who was excited, drove off alone after lunch.

At five o'clock in the afternoon, Li Mu's drive arrived at Zao City, Zao City is the southernmost city of Qilu, the geographical location of this city is somewhat special, the old urban area is gradually declining because the external traffic is not convenient enough, Xue Guo District located in the west of Zao City is run through by the Beijing-Shanghai Railway, the traffic is convenient, so the development gradually catches up with the old urban area, Lin Qingya set the dinner place and Li Mu's hotel is a three-star hotel here.
