After determining Google's covetousness for Motorola, Zhou Shi still couldn't put his mind at ease. He was so impressed by Apple's strength that it almost monopolized the profits of the mobile phone industry. Except for Samsung, there is no one that can compete with Apple. If Apple is granted mobile communications patent protection, there will be no way to curb Apple's growth. Could Apple be able to buy Nokia? Zhou Shi didn't believe it.

Microsoft's Trojan horse strategy has not succeeded, and I don't know what it will do to the mobile phone industry, and there is no future knowledge to give him more references. However, from the perspective of players in the current mobile phone market, the most powerful is Nokia, historically, this year is Nokia's last glory, and its flagship mobile phone products are still so amazing, except for the Symbian system. Both apples and husks are difficult to surpass Nokia at this time in terms of process design. The second is the iPhone and Samsung, the iPhone needless to say, everyone knows it. The strength of Samsung's mobile phone is not only the improvement of the entire industrial chain, but also the perfect dealer system that it has built up for many years. Then there was the Fruit Shell phone, a smartphone launched almost at the same time as Apple, which changed the industry along with the iPhone. This year's strong advertising campaign and useless brand culture have made it deeply rooted in the entire mobile phone market. Coupled with the strength of Apple's iPhone in the early stage, it has been supported by many operators around the world. This is the most powerful smartphone brand apart from the iPhone. And in the smartphone market, Guoke is still much stronger than Samsung. Finally, there are Nuts, LG, Blackberry, Motorola, Sony Aison, Lenovo, Huawei, ZTE, HTC, and Plam, to name a few.

Nokia chose Time Android because of Rubinstein, and even wanted to use a high-performance Snapdragon chip specially designed for Fruit Shell and Android. It is unlikely that it will fall to Microsoft in the short term, and it is unlikely that it will sell its patents to Apple. As for Samsung, it seems that there is no need to defect to Microsoft, but it may also be said that Microsoft still has a great advantage in terms of operating system patents. But now, Samsung mobile phones use Google Android and time Android strategy at the same time, has always been a good partner of Microsoft, now there are some repeated, want to take refuge in Google, Google also looks down on this ambitious little brother, is the first touch screen mobile phone manufacturer, but their patented technical reserves are also not very good, the operating system also depends on others. In the face of Google's wooing, hesitate between Microsoft and Google. Nuts are the sphere of influence of Time Android, BlackBerry has its own operating system, Sony, Lenovo and other manufacturers, it's unreliable to think about. The best for Microsoft is still Nokia, followed by Motorola, and finally LG and HTC.

Apple also doesn't have much choice in the patent reserve, which is about the same as Microsoft's.

Just when Zhou Shi was worried about the changes in the mobile phone market, Google's acquisition of Yelp leaked, and he had to focus on Yelp. The company's board of directors includes people from Sequoia Capital and Yahoo, and a lot of news inevitably spreads.

"Simon, what do you think, do you really want to sell yelp to Google?" Yang Zhiyuan hurriedly called him, Yahoo's market capitalization has not yet returned to the size before the subprime mortgage crisis. The current market capitalization is only $23 billion, and the lowest market value in the past few months was only $20 billion. The aftermath of the rejection of Microsoft's acquisition was revealed, and many investors expressed dissatisfaction with Yang. His current position as Yahoo's chief is almost unsecure, and the clash between Karbac and Ahri, adding to Wall Street's worries about Yahoo's future.

"I haven't decided yet, I'm just getting in touch now. "Zhou Shi

"It's better to let Google buy it than to let Yahoo buy it. How about it, if you really want to sell, give me a chance!"

"Let me think again!" Zhou Shi

"You can't just sell a Google ......," Yang Zhiyuan

"No problem, the company has your people. "Zhou Shi

"Hehe, well, I'll wait for your news. Yang Zhiyuan, and then hung up the phone.

"Simon, you're selling yelp?" Bezos soon called as well

"No, I have other plans, but I need your help to help me build momentum if necessary. "Zhou Shi

"That's it, no problem......" Bezos quickly agreed, and didn't ask why, in his opinion, Zhou Shi and him were the same kind of people.

The growth of Yelp is nothing short of a miracle in Silicon Valley, and while not everyone agrees with this business model, everyone is shocked by the incredible speed of growth. 100 million users, billion dollars in revenue, this is YELP's internal forecast for 2010. It's an amazing miracle that last time YELP's $3 billion valuation wasn't recognized by most people, and now almost no one says that. At this time, Goldman Sachs and Da Mo came to the door and wanted to operate the YELP listing, and Zhou Shi showed them some of the company's operating data noncommittally.

"Simon, what kind of business are you going to be?" said Goldman Sachs' Frank Van Behrani

"What kind of company to be, does it matter?" Zhou Shi

"It's very important, it's about the future of YELP and the price we place on him. ”

"I actually only have a general idea, and it's not systematic. "Zhou Shi

"It doesn't matter, you can say as much as you want. "Belankvan

"Now the average Internet consumption in the United States is about $1,000 per person, and if an American's average annual disposable income is $40,000, where will the remaining $39,000 go? Amazon's e-commerce focuses on the $1,000 online, and Yelp focuses on Local Commerce, with the remaining $39,000. This is a trillion-dollar market, and group buying is just a means, not my goal. What I want is the business opportunities brought by Online To Offline, and occupy a place in the future business life changed by technology......" Zhou Shi didn't know what he was talking about, anyway, he had to appear to have a level, have ideas, and be able to fool people, but unfortunately he couldn't go to MLM people to learn, and his level was limited.

"Human beings have four basic needs, clothing, food, shelter and transportation, clothing represents dress, food represents daily consumption such as eating, which is what YELP is doing now, and accommodation is accommodation, in addition to traditional hotels and hostels, we have also developed Airbnb to open the communication gap between strangers with trust. Let the idle houses and redundant rooms in the United States and even the world play their due value and activate the precipitated resources. There is a similar travel solution, that is, the online taxi service, the current taxi resources are too few, but the United States car resources are too abundant, but it is still difficult to meet our needs, so our taxi service plan is that every car driver who has free and experienced driving joins the taxi service, and the person who wants to take a taxi sends out a demand instruction through our APP, and after we match it successfully, the transaction between the two parties is matched...... This is what I call the Shared Economy ......" Zhou Shi

"Simon, I feel compelled to make our goals known to everyone in the company, and this is not your business alone, but to make our business ...... all," Stallelman said before Frank Fan

"Okay!" Zhou Shi reacted stunned

"I think you can completely refuse Google's offer, and I'm willing to give you enough financial support......." Blancvan
