Chapter 108: Some Fear

The negotiation with Wang Xiaochuan was very smooth, Zhou Shi originally wanted to buy Sogou by the way, and buy his team, but unfortunately Zhang Caoyang did not agree, and was only willing to sell the Sogou input method to him, in the face of such a semi-finished product, Zhou Shi did not say much. Just buy it, it's not worth it anyway. However, Zhou Shi is still very happy to be able to meet and communicate with these bigwigs directly this time, which shows that these old giants have now recognized Zhou Shi's strength. He has finally become a small giant of the domestic Internet.

Before Wang Xiaochuan joined the company, Zhou Shi specially asked him to introduce the company's situation and his future vision: to make Time Friends a technology-driven company. He was given the positions of Senior Vice President and Vice President of Technology. Zhou Shi's weight obviously comforted Wang Xiaochuan, who had been hit hard, and seriously discussed the feasibility of those techniques with Zhou Shi. It was the first time he was treated like this by these technical masters, and Zhou Shi also felt warm in his heart, and he felt comfortable all over his body.

On the second day, Zhou Shi specially convened a meeting of the high-level of the friend network, in addition to welcoming Wang Xiaochuan, as well as the research and direction of future technology.

"I think so, there is no need for us to compete with Tengxun, they fight theirs, we develop ours. We are not the same as theirs, and the confrontation that is too right will make us lose our direction. So I have planned three routes for the future, namely open platform, mobile Internet and artificial intelligence. Zhou Shi looked at the serious crowd below, feeling both excited and excited, but also with an unspeakable fear. He didn't know if this was the path to greatness or self-destruction.

"The goal of the open platform is to make Friends.com a super website on the Internet and an operating system of the Internet. We open up the interface to allow third-party applications to display directly on our website, whether they are selling things, providing video services, providing lifestyle services, or web games. We all give them an open platform with 50 million users. As for how to make a profit, you can refer to the App Store ......"

"The current mobile Internet is not the mainstream, and it will take time for future development, but we must prepare in advance. ”

"Artificial intelligence is the future, whether it is our information flow or pay-per-performance advertising, we need to be involved in it. This is the core of our future development......"

The open platform is in charge of Zhao Wen, assisted by Wang Xiaochuan. Artificial intelligence is in charge of Wang Xiaochuan, assisted by Zhao Wen. The optimized design of mobile Internet sites should not be left behind. Zhou Shi's speech for more than half an hour finally stopped, and he directly arranged the work, without the slightest intention of discussing. Then he continued to talk about the establishment of overseas branches.

"We will set up overseas branches in Japan and South Korea, and now we will start looking for suitable candidates to develop the Japanese and Korean markets" Zhou Shi set the tone, and then began to discuss the specific situation.

The open platform is probably more of an open game platform, and the web game will still have a good development, and the profits are also considerable. In the future, every game distribution platform will make a lot of money. After using the game to support the development of the Friends Network and forming enough influence, the ads of the Friends Network can begin to show its power. After all, advertising accounts for the vast majority of Facebook's revenue.

I don't know if yesterday's communication played a big role, or for some other reason, Wang Xiaochuan cooperated with Zhou Shi's plan today and provided him with a lot of help. Everyone began to implement the plan according to Zhou Shi's plan.

"I didn't expect it to be very powerful, and I was able to subdue a subordinate so quickly. After the meeting ended, seeing that there was no one, Li Ying came over and joked about Zhou Shi.

"That's, don't look at who I am, the richest man from scratch after the 80s!" Zhou Shi

"Say you're fat and you're still panting, you have to be careful that the back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves!" Li Ying

Zhou Shi naturally knew that Xiao Zha was still in front of him, and ten years later, there were fierce figures like Zhang Yiming chasing after him. However, he will not always hold himself oppressive, and doing meaningful things is much better than maintaining the position of the richest man all the time. Although I know that more than ten years later, the advantages of Zhou Shi's rebirth will be exhausted, and there will be any new entrepreneurial heroes, it is better to honestly establish a giant enterprise or use venture capital to support a group of unicorns.

"Long memories of watching the tide, full of Guo people vying for the river. The sea of suspicion is empty, and the drums are beating on all faces.

The tide stands towards the waves, and the red flag is not wet. Don't look at it in a dream, the dream is still cold. Zhou Shi leisurely read this Pan Lang's "Jiuquanzi", which seems to be meaningful. Li Ying didn't continue to make fun of Zhou Shi, and there were many indescribable feelings in his eyes when he looked at him.

"What do you think of Time.com, no matter how I think about it, it doesn't have any value. Li Ying talked about her real purpose of looking for Zhou Shi.

"Actually, I wanted to set up Time.com as an incubator at the beginning, and use its huge traffic to incubate some Internet or high-tech projects. However, I found it difficult to attract top talent to join me right now, so I left Time.com idle. Zhou Shi said honestly

"What about these projects now, what are you going to do?" Li Ying

"Time Pay is a strategic product, but there are not many places to use it now, and there are too few security talents, but we must continue to invest. Time novels, mainly to generate content, the big waves of the sand to select excellent works for adaptation, games or movies, this will also have a good income in the future, now only continue to invest. If it really can't be developed, then forget it, you can sell it and close it, you can do it yourself. Time music, this is a kind of demand, but also a kind of extension of socialization. ”

"If you don't merge time music and time novels into time friends, they should have a mutually reinforcing effect. "Li Ying

"It's good for you to look at this yourself, I said that you can try and make mistakes, as long as such mistakes are within our tolerance, don't be afraid of mistakes, don't dare to try, I want to be a pioneer of the Internet, I need Li Ying, who has a pioneering spirit, to help me grow together." Zhou Shi said righteously

"Then I'll try it," Li Ying said with excitement

"Your main focus is on time friends, the internationalization strategy can fail, but we can't help but try, we can't do our best. Zhou Shi, "But one thing must be remembered, Time Friends must be a technology-oriented company, user experience first, technology second, profit third"

"I see!" Li Ying

The two exchanged some ideas about the internationalization of Time Friends, although she had some doubts about why she didn't start with the American market, but she didn't delve into it, after all, MySpace, an opponent in the American social field, is also very powerful, and News Corp's financial strength is not comparable to Time Holdings and Galaxy Capital. But Zhou Shi knew what he thought, and he hated his cowardice and didn't dare to face the battle with Zack.

Zhou Shi, who began to study psychology, knew that his state was abnormal, but this was the propaganda that the domestic and foreign media had continuously strengthened for more than ten years in his previous life, which made him more dissatisfied with the domestic Internet giants, and more admiration and fear for overseas TMT industry giants.

The mental barrier is not so easy to break through, if others know that Zhou Shi is actually afraid of that freckled face now, I really don't know how many people will laugh at him.
