Chapter 61: Baidu's Future

Just entering August, Kai-Fu Lee, Microsoft's global vice president and Asia Research Institute, joined Google. However, this did not cause Baidu to shake, and the internal learning platform promoted by Zhou Shi quietly affected everyone's hearts even more. Especially those interns who come to Baidu are looking forward to learning more knowledge. And it also started a new employee onboarding guide, which emphasizes Baidu's mission, vision and values.

Zhou Shi, who was bored, found CTO Liu and wanted to learn from him how to learn IT technology and how to develop software. As we talked, we talked about the operating system.

"Sir Liu, can we develop a mobile operating system, is it technically difficult?"

"The operating system? This enables development, but the technology is very difficult. "CTO Liu

"What I want is not a general operating system, the human-computer interaction interface does not have a mouse and keyboard, but is operated by finger touch, can Baidu develop it?" Zhou Shi asked curiously

"Your imagination is rich, but the development of such an operating system is very difficult, meaningless, and costs a lot of money. "Liu

"Did Sir Liu ever think that the mobile phone in the future would be like a magic horse?" Zhou Shi

"The screen of the phone should be larger and the internet speed will be faster. "Liu

"That's it?" Zhou Shi

"It's good to have a mobile phone like this!" said Liu

"You never thought that we would develop a touchscreen mobile phone with an operating system, so that we can work and play online anytime, anywhere. Zhou Shi was a little excited

"It's good to have a computer, but a machine like that won't run out of power for a long time, and you still have to charge it all the time before you can use it, so there's no point. "Liu

"Technology is developing, we just need to do not only follow, but also develop" Zhou Shi

"Hey, maybe you're right, my thinking is indeed a little solidified" Liu

"Sir Liu, do you think Robin will agree with us to develop a mobile operating system?" Zhou Shi

"Your ideas are good for learning, but ......"

"But what?" Zhou Shi asked curiously, was there anything wrong with him?

"You know what? Robin is against cloud computing, and he thinks it's just new wine in an old bottle and doesn't make much sense. "CTO Liu

"Did he say that, why didn't he contradict me to my face. "Zhou Shi

"He doesn't want to hit your self-confidence, and Kangsheng's development is not important to Baidu," Liu

"I think you still have a lot to learn, and you don't know a lot about electronics and IT, so a lot of what you say is imaginary and unrealistic. Liu concluded

Well, well, Zhou Shi didn't know what to say. It's definitely not good to talk about technology, talk about ideals, they discuss technology with you. Zhou Shi originally wanted to wait until Baidu went public, whether to try to start the transformation to the mobile Internet, or to make a Chinese version of the Android operating system. You must know that as soon as the prism door comes out, the security risks of Android are almost an open secret. It is a pity that there are few domestic alternatives. With its own operating system, maybe you can have a Chinese iPhone.

Zhou Shi chatted with Wang Zhanshen again

"How much do you think Baidu can pay for the future?"

"I should ask you how much you can pay for the future," Wang Zhanshen

"I, why are you asking me?" Zhou Shi

"Aren't you a shareholder of Baidu?" Wang

"I am a shareholder of Baidu?" Zhou Shi suddenly realized that he was the majority shareholder of Baidu. However, Robin Lee is also the founder of Baidu, the largest shareholder, and has many more shares than Zhou Shi. Could it be that Zhou Shi can still fight with Robin Lee?

"No, I don't think the direction Robin approves, I'm willing to pay the price of Baidu's failure for the sake of my dreams, but what's the use. "Zhou Shi

"If Robin doesn't agree, you won't be able to do anything?" Wang Zhanshen

"My vision is that there will be a lot of costs, a lot of financial support, and it will not necessarily end well. Zhou Shi once again said the concept of mobile Internet and smart phones.

"That kind of phone must be cool!" Wang Zhanshen

"Yes, such a mobile phone can create a great enterprise and a great leader" Zhou Shi thought of the world-renowned leader, who could be said to be a real leader. It is not the joking name of some Internet bigwigs by many netizens in China.

"How much does such a plan cost!" Wang Zhanshen

"Baidu's dominant position has been established, and with the rapid growth of domestic Internet users, Baidu's revenue will usher in explosive growth. The main thing now is the willpower of the leaders, whether they dare to change their lives. "Zhou Shi

"You know this?" said Wang Zhanshen

"You know, this is what I have inferred based on the development of Google, as well as the development of the Internet in China, that Baidu's revenue is likely to double every year. "Zhou Shi

Zhou Shi and the others chatted and chatted, and then they started the topic. Maybe the future of Baidu is the future of Baidu, the future of Robin Lee, not the future of his Zhou Shi.

There is really no smooth road on the road of life, even if Zhou Shi is reborn, he still faces so much confusion, and many things are not something he can change if he wants to. In fact, fortunately, Zhou Shi faced Robin Lee, if it was Teng Xun's little brother, it would be miserable. In an interview a few years before Zhou Shi's rebirth, that guy made it clear that cloud computing could not be realized until the era of Avatar. are all a group of guys with no ideals, is it their highest pursuit to cheat money?

Although the school is on holiday, there are still many people in Yanda. Fortunately, the school is the place where cutting-edge technology takes place, and Zhou Shi's ideas are not despised. In fact, Yanda still has a lot of research on cloud computing, but it is not systematic. It's a pity that Zhou Shi didn't know technology before he was reborn, although he likes to try new things, he is also a hobbyist, and he has rich experience in use and experience. It can only open up the thinking of those seniors and teachers.

For a week, Zhou Shi spent a week in the laboratory of the School of Information. Zhou Shi felt two different attitudes, Baidu clearly distrusted Zhou Shi's proposal in terms of technology, and the school was more willing to try. Perhaps this is because their starting point is different. Although Zhou Shi has the means to forcibly push forward some projects on Baidu, he doesn't think that makes any sense. It's really not a good idea to use the power of his more than 10 percent Baidu shares and capital to force a group of engineers to do something they don't approve of. If Zhou Shi's technical ability is outstanding, and with the assistance of capital, will there be a better situation? Zhou Shi once again wants to start learning technology again.

But his troubles didn't last long, as something new came to him. After thinking about it for a while, Zhang Zhao of the light unexpectedly gave him a positive answer. Zhou Shi's film and television entertainment company is about to be officially established.
