Chapter 97: A multi-pronged approach

Jiang Zheng said: "If they want Baidu to divest their investment, they will not dare to take risks if they lose confidence in the domain company and give them a huge impossible plan." ”

Regarding Jiang Zheng's method, Yu Song knew what was going on after thinking about it.

This method has a very high appearance rate in the field of the Internet, including physical operations, and it is not only a self-defeating plan to scare minority shareholders, but even some companies suspend the company's operation in order to force minority shareholders to withdraw their shares. This method of killing 1,000 enemies and losing 800 of oneself has forced minority shareholders to withdraw their shares and leave in order to avoid greater losses.

However, Jiang Zheng underestimated Baidu's leadership, after all, this is one of the three major domestic Internet giants in the future, and their leadership has a vision, if this method can scare them away, they will definitely not become Baidu in the future.

Yu Song shook his head and denied Jiang Zheng's method, "Don't underestimate Baidu's leadership, they have invested a total of five million in the domain company, even if I say any plan to kill themselves, they will not choose to withdraw immediately, but will continue to wait and see." Besides, I can't really delay my business for the sake of Baidu. ”

Jiang Zheng said helplessly: "In this way, it seems that there is no effective way." Baidu now attaches great importance to Tieba, and if the domain company splits up Tieba, Baidu may withdraw its investment. ”

After saying this, Jiang Zheng himself laughed. Tieba is so popular now, there is no reason for domain companies to give up on it.

But the speaker was unintentional, the listener was intentional, Yu Song's eyes lit up, and he thought of a multi-pronged solution.

Baidu originally invested in Song's company, and the main purpose was to post it. The biggest problem they faced at that time was that the user stickiness was not enough.

Search engines can only be the front end of users, and they can only watch others do the more beneficial parts of the middle and end, so they want to try to integrate other products to improve their user viscosity.

And the hottest post bar at that time became Baidu's first choice.

Baidu initially wanted to acquire the domain company, but Yu Song did not agree, and finally Baidu had to agree to a 10% stake.

In fact, Baidu's ultimate goal is to continuously expand its shares in the domain company through multiple financings, and finally achieve the goal of annexing the domain company.

However, it is obvious that they underestimate Yu Song too much. Yu Song has been guarding against Baidu in the early stage, until the popularity of the farm, Baidu's wishful thinking is completely unsuccessful.

More importantly, the emergence of farms has largely replaced the role of stickers.

The main role of Tieba is to enhance the stickiness of users, as well as to incubate WeChat, a god-level product.

Now WeChat is on the right track, and in the field of instant messaging software, it can compete with penguins.

With the launch of the farm, the stickiness of WeChat users has been greatly enhanced, on the other hand, the help given to WeChat is getting smaller and smaller.

Besides, now Yu Song really doesn't pay attention to the post bar, especially Yu Song has been thinking about a problem recently, that is, WeChat's personal space, which overlaps with many functions of the post bar.

What is certain is that Baidu is imperative to post it.

If Yu Song splits Tieba from the domain company now, let Baidu use the shares of the domain company to exchange for more Tieba shares.

Will Baidu take the bait?

This condition should not be enough, and I have to add another fire to Baidu.

However, if you want to give the controlling stake of Tieba to Baidu, Yu Song is a little reluctant, they only have 10% of the shares of the domain company, so Yu Song has lost too much.

Suddenly, Yu Song had a flash of inspiration, and he said just now

Several methods were implemented together, so that Baidu was in a hurry and made a wrong choice.

First of all, it is natural to give Baidu an exaggerated business plan, and the domain company is ready to split the Tieba and re-establish a company, while requiring shareholders to increase their capital.

Second, and most importantly, the plan of the post bar after the split should be stable and follow the established route.

As for the domain company, it is how to take risks, how to play to the death, so that the development of the domain company is full of danger and uncertainty.

Yu Song told Baidu so bluntly that in order to make the domain company go further, shareholders should not only increase their capital, but also accept their own risky plans.

In the face of such a risky approach, Baidu will definitely not agree, and when the time comes, Yu Song can give him a choice, give up 10% of the shares of the domain company, and replace them with 30% or even 40% of the shares of Tieba.

If Baidu wants to control Tieba, then there is no problem, you can give it 51% of the shares, but the domain company needs cash compensation, as for how much, you can talk slowly.

In this way, the name of the post bar may be changed back.

Jiang Zheng's prompt gave Yu Song a lot of inspiration, and Yu Song didn't know a lot about the capital level, but fortunately, he had enough experience and insight to be able to understand a little bit on many issues.

As for whether this method can work, Yu Song is still certain about it.

Baidu is now on the rise, and their main goal now is to boost their traffic, which is also their main business.

Tieba still has a good space for development in recent years, which means that after loosening the personal space or self-media, you can also buy the remaining shares of Tieba to Baidu at a high price, and you can make a lot of money.

In Jiang Zheng's inexplicable eyes, Yu Song laughed and said, "Okay, thank you for reminding me today." ”

Jiang Zheng was a little speechless, what did I say?

Yu Song remembered something, "By the way, how are the things about the office building and the fleet?"

Jiang Zheng said: "Xiaozhen is already looking for the office building, and I have found someone to contact the team, and when the company moves, I will start planning the route." ”

Yu Song chatted with Jiang Zheng a few more words, and then found Xie Tao and asked about the work process.

Xie Tao said: "Boss, rest assured, Alipay is already in the testing stage, as long as the problem of the bank is solved, it will be put into use next week." ”

Yu Song nodded, "I still have an idea, you listen to it first, and when Alipay is developed, this will become the focus of the next work." ”

Xie Tao asked excitedly, "What is it?"

Yu Song said: "I am ready to open a new function in WeChat's personal space, blog. ”

Xie Tao was a little confused, "Blog?

Yu Song thought for a while and said: "You can understand this thing as a kind of network diary, which is managed by yourself and publishes personal articles from time to time. ”

Xie Tao thought for a while, but he didn't understand very well, "Is there any difference between this and space?"

In this way, Yu Song is a little big, Xie Tao is OK in terms of technology, but when it comes to this new product, he doesn't have this kind of thinking, which makes him not sensitive enough.

The company needs all kinds of talents!

"You should be busy with Alipay first, this matter will be talked about later, the time is really not ripe enough. Yu Song patted him on the shoulder and said.

Yu Song found Jiang Zheng again and said his request, "Okay."

After the government department was formed, they immediately poached people for me. The company is getting bigger, and this point is a bit too busy. ”

Jiang Zheng nodded and said, "I understand, I will follow this matter." ”

Let people who really understand technology do research and development, let people who really understand the market do operations, and let people who really understand users do products, which is the fundamental principle of making the best use of people in the Internet industry.

....

I have to say that Yin Qiang's relationship with the bank is indeed very strong, and he informed Yu Song the next day that he had already made an appointment with the branch presidents of the four major banks, and the time was set for this afternoon.

After receiving this call, Yu Song was overjoyed, and the surprise that Yin Qiang gave him far exceeded his expectations.

The branch presidents of the four major banks are several notches higher than the connections they need.

But in this way, Alipay's affairs are more stable.

With Baidu's previous experience, Yu Song registered a separate company for Alipay when he developed it, in order to better distinguish its various products.

The company name has been registered, Xie Tao's Alipay ontology and website, as well as security controls have been developed, everything is ready, and only the interface of the bank remains.

Once the bank interface is opened, Alipay has its own online payment merchant qualification, and users can pay Alipay through the online banking of the four major banks, and Alipay's primary goal has been achieved.

Yu Song, who was excited, left the company and drove his S600 to Yin Qiang's company.

I took a look at the address sent by Yin Qiang, in the science and technology park in Yuhang, it is quite far away.

Yu Song thought about it for a while, and the domain company can also consider the office building of the science and technology park at this stage, after all, most Internet companies are headquartered there.

When I came to Yin Qiang's company, it was much more spacious than the domain company, about more than 300 square meters. came to the front desk to report his name, and the front desk lady politely took Yu Song to Yin Qiang's office.

Entering the office, Yin Qiang was tinkering with something in front of the computer. Seeing Yu Song come in, he was surprised and said, "You came here too early, right?"

Yu Song looked at the time, and it seemed that he came a little early, "It just so happens that I'm fine, come and visit your company." ”

Yin Qiang left the desk with a smile, "Okay, anyway, there is still time, I'll show you around." ”

"Good. ”

Most of the places on this floor belong to Yin Qiang's company. The place is still a bit big for the number of people here.

After reading it, Yu Song suggested with a smile: "I think you have such a large space here, you can draw an entertainment area out, and employees can relax when they go to work." ”

Yin Qiang was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "Is there still such a thing?"

Yu Song said: "Haha, I'm looking for a new office building right now, and this is just one of my ideas. ”

Yin Qiang nodded, "I'll try it when I go back and see how it works." ”

The two of them chatted while walking, and Yin Qiang was very curious to ask Yu Song what he thought about the future development of the Internet.

Yu Song said something casually, saying that he is now optimistic about social networking and games, and after a while, e-commerce will become the mainstream.

Yin Qiang asked in surprise: "E-commerce, are you so optimistic about it?"
