Two days later, Zhang Siyuan came to the Sohu headquarters again. But this time, he didn't sit in a wheelchair again, but slowly walked to the office of the chairman of Sohu, who had not been entered for many days.

That's right, since Zhang Siyuan left Sohu, no one has used the office of the chairman of Sohu anymore. After Smith came to Sohu, Zeng Fuhu asked others to clean up an office for him, and Smith did not ask to sit in the chairman's office. Even Smith in the office that Zeng Fuhu asked people to clean up didn't stay for more than three hours, after all, he didn't do anything in Sohu, and basically he didn't stay in Sohu with peace of mind.

There hasn't been much change in the office, except for the cleaning once a week, no one has ever entered it. So when Zhang Siyuan returned to the office, the office was exactly the same as before he left. After seeing Zhang Siyuan sitting peacefully in the boss's chair, Ye Wudao walked out of the office and waited outside.

Zhang Siyuan, who was sitting in the boss's chair, after thinking quietly for half an hour, picked up the phone at hand and dialed the phone in Zeng Fuhu's office: "Mr. Zeng, you come to my office." ”

Five minutes later, Zeng Fuhu got up and walked to Zhang Siyuan's office after finishing the work at hand. At the same time, Director Zhu, who was notified that Zhang Siyuan was coming, also drove from his home to the Sohu headquarters.

Ye Wudao, who was guarding the door of Zhang Siyuan's office, did not stop Zeng Fuhu after seeing him coming, and directly let Zeng Fuhu enter Zhang Siyuan's office. Zhang Siyuan explained to Ye Wudao which people could directly enter his office in Sohu and Times Technology, and Zeng Fuhu naturally belonged to one of them, so of course Ye Wudao would not stop him.

After seeing Zeng Fuhu walk in, Zhang Siyuan beckoned to Zeng Fuhu, and after Zeng Fuhu sat down, Zhang Siyuan said: "Mr. Zeng, how is everyone's research and development doing?"

"Everyone's process is okay, because Yang Ning and they have the foundation of ChinaRen before, so there are not too many difficulties to do. If there are no surprises, it will definitely be available in mid-April. Zeng Fuhu didn't think about it, and directly said the answer that Zhang Siyuan wanted to know.

Compared with the R&D projects currently being carried out by Sohu, everyone can be said to be the fastest R&D speed, and it is also the fastest expected to go public. Therefore, Zeng Fuhu's eyes were naturally firmly fixed on everyone, and he was also clear about the affairs of the alumni directory.

Zhang Siyuan nodded: "Suspend everyone's research and development, Sohu is about to be merged into Times Technology, so the name Renren will definitely not be used." At that time, it will definitely need to be renamed, and in order to waste everyone's energy, the R&D personnel related to everyone will be temporarily assigned to other projects. At the same time, you should also communicate with the main leaders of several R&D departments about the direction of the company's development. All R&D discoveries must be carried out with the development and discovery of the QQ series of Times Technology, so that there will be a problem with a module in the future and it will have to be changed. ”

In Zhang Siyuan's heart, after Sohu is merged into Times Technology, many things will definitely wear the vest of Times Technology. And the vest of Times Technology, there is only the QQ series. If Sohu's current R&D personnel still work in the name of Sohu when developing various projects, then it would be a waste of time to make changes after the merger, and it would be better to make it clear now.

Hearing Zhang Siyuan's words, Zeng Fuhu asked with some hesitation: "So, after the merger, will Sohu not be used at all?"

Zhang Siyuan didn't think about it, and nodded: "Yes." ”

Then before Zeng Fuhu could speak, Zhang Siyuan continued: "Mr. Zeng, I know you are reluctant to Sohu. However, the merger of Sohu into Times Technology is the trend of the times, and if there is still the shadow of Sohu left after the merger, then I might as well not carry out this merger. It's just that the pros of this merger outweigh the disadvantages, otherwise I wouldn't have such thoughts. After all, for me, both companies are under my name, and there are so many troubles with the merger, if it is not beneficial, I will not ask for trouble. ”

Regarding the decline of the portal in later generations, Zhang Siyuan is clear in his heart. The reason why Zhang Siyuan is now thinking about merging Sohu into Times Technology is that there is another unspoken reason that Zhang Siyuan wants to save Sohu.

Although it is said that more than ten years later, the three major portals have found their own direction of development and have not withdrawn from the stage of history, but the core foundation of the three major portals is no longer a portal. Sina relies on meager developments, NetEase relies on games, and Sohu relies on Sogou and other strategic developments to remain active in China.

However, in Zhang Siyuan's heart, these things are all things of the times and technology. Sohu now belongs to him, and he naturally doesn't want Sohu to decline in the future, so it is better to merge it into Times Technology now. Let Sohu give full play to its due value, make up for the only current shortcoming of Times Technology, and at the same time let Sohu no longer compete with NetEase and Sina.

Yes, for Sina and NetEase, Zhang Siyuan has no heart to compete with them. Because after Sohu merged into Times Technology, NetEase and Sina no longer have the strength to compete with Times Technology, and more than 40% of Tencent's shares have been acquired by Li Ershao. The most important thing is that the 40 percent are currently voting shares. In other words, Zhang Siyuan is already the largest shareholder of Tencent, to put it more simply, as long as Zhang Siyuan can acquire a little more shares of Tencent, Tencent's absolute controlling stake will come to him.

Of course, because of some regulations, this matter is still uncertain. However, with Li Ershao in the front, there will be no problem. Because Li Ershao is still a shareholder of Tencent on the surface, he has no problem acquiring the shares held by other shareholders of Tencent. When Major Li Er transferred the shares in his hand to Zhang Siyuan, it must be the time when Ma Tenghua couldn't stop it.

Because Zhang Siyuan and the others knew very well that Ma Tenghua definitely did not have the funds to buy back Tencent's shares, so in Zhang Siyuan's heart, Tencent's shares were already his. Tencent's absolute controlling stake is in the hands of Zhang Siyuan, so Tencent's result can only be swallowed up by Times Technology. After Tencent is swallowed up by Times Technology, there will be no company in the entire domestic instant messaging software market that can compete with Times Technology.

Times Technology, which has close to the entire Chinese instant messaging software market, will have a few more users in the world. At the same time, in the absence of other options, new users in the instant messaging software market can only choose QQ of Times Technology. That means that after Sohu merges into Times Technology, with Sohu's mature portal operation team and R&D team, as well as a huge number of users, QQ portal will have more room for development than Sohu portal.

The so-called Sina and NetEase, compared with the QQ portal backed by a huge number of QQ users, it is no longer possible to distinguish between the three major portals of Sohu, NetEase, and Sina. At that time, it will only be the QQ portal that will ride the dust, and Sina and NetEase can only be thrown farther and farther away by the QQ portal.

As for the way out of various portals after the decline of the portal in the future, Zhang Siyuan is already ready to take possession of it. The game market cannot be dominated by Times Technology, but Weibo Zhang Siyuan believes that it will definitely be firmly in control. However, even if technology in the era of the game market cannot dominate, Zhang Siyuan will not let NetEase have room to survive. After all, who let Ding Sanshi offend him so many times, Zhang Siyuan is a very grudgeful person.

Zeng Fuhu fell silent after hearing Zhang Siyuan say this. Zhang Siyuan didn't speak again, Zhang Siyuan believed that Zeng Fuhu would definitely be able to figure out the truth here, otherwise he wouldn't be Zeng Fuhu.

The silence in the office didn't last long, and Zeng Fuhu opened his mouth: "Mr. Zhang, I agree with your ideas in principle. However, there will be a lot of problems in this case, and I hope you can give me a little time to deal with it. ”

Zhang Siyuan smiled and agreed directly, as Zeng Fuhu said, there will be some problems at that time, Zhang Siyuan knows very well that it is just those people who are bent on making Sohu bigger and stronger, and they will have objections at that time. Because their goal is to make Sohu bigger and stronger, it must be difficult for those people to accept when they venture to learn that Sohu is going to disappear and be completely merged into Times Technology.

Those people are different from the people who Zhang Siyuan said about cutting them without scruples, and those people are all people who really work hard for the development of the company. It can be said that they are the real pillars of the company, unlike those who make trouble in the company or do not really work hard for the development of the company. Other people Zhang Siyuan can not care, and Zeng Fuhu can also not care, but Zeng Fuhu must care about that group of people.

After all, they used to have the same dream, and they put a lot of effort into making Sohu bigger. During the period when Zeng Fuhu was in charge of Sohu, those people were Zeng Fuhu's staunchest supporters, and it was impossible for Zeng Fuhu to give up on them.

Zeng Fuhu saw that Zhang Siyuan agreed, and he didn't say anything more. They have talked many times about the merger of Sohu and Times Technology, and they have considered almost everything. As for the rest of the things, they will only be discussed when they meet with those executives of Times Technology, and there is no need to say it now.

The two of them did not talk about these things anymore, but chatted about the recent events in the domestic Internet market. At this time, Director Zhu, who learned that Zhang Siyuan was in Sohu, had also arrived at the parking lot downstairs of Sohu headquarters.

Ten minutes later, Zeng Fuhu, who had just walked out of Zhang Siyuan's office, saw the menacing Director Zhu walking straight to Zhang Siyuan's office at the corner of the corridor.

PS: emmm, it's still with my girlfriend, so I'll send it more. The monthly ticket master said that he was embarrassed to ask for it, but he knelt down and begged the uncles who would give a reward, and he felt good to look at the backstage to reward 0. Although Shidao also knows that this is shameless, but who makes Shidao shameless. For the sake of the teacher's shamelessness, the masters will appreciate it.
