Chapter 648: The Handshake of the Two Eras
"Mr. Ma, hello. Pengcheng, in a seaview hotel, Zhang Siyuan looked at Ma Tenghua with a freehand expression in front of him.
Ma Tenghua, who was sitting opposite Zhang Siyuan, picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip of tea, a smile suddenly appeared on his face, and he looked at Zhang Siyuan: "Thank you Mr. Zhang for seeing me, Mr. Zhang is very curious about why I asked Mr. Zhang to meet, right?"
Zhang Siyuan nodded without hesitation: "Yes." ”
Two days ago, Zhang Siyuan suddenly received a call from Ma Tenghua and asked him to meet him in Pengcheng. Although Zhang Siyuan was very puzzled at that time, he did not refuse Ma Tenghua's invitation.
This morning, I saw Tencent's statement of closing all YY servers, which made Zhang Siyuan, who was already in Pengcheng, feel even more strange.
Ma Tenghua saw that Zhang Siyuan did not deny it, and smiled: "When I first knew that you were the chairman of Times Technology, I was very surprised. Unexpectedly, our first meeting was on the plane, but the second meeting was in your hotel. ”
"yes, no one thought that our first meeting would be on a plane. Zhang Siyuan agreed.
At this time, he had already seen Ma Tenghua, and Zhang Siyuan was not in a hurry to know why Ma Tenghua made such a decision.
Since Ma Tenghua asked him over, there must be something. He asked first, Ma Tenghua might have some ideas, it was better to let Ma Tenghua say it himself.
Ma Tenghua saw that Zhang Siyuan stopped talking after agreeing, smiled and said: "I asked Mr. Zhang to meet, I want to ask Mr. Zhang for advice." ”
Without waiting for Zhang Siyuan to speak, Ma Tenghua continued: "I want to ask Mr. Zhang for advice, what is your original intention of creating Times Technology?"
"To make money. Zhang Siyuan replied.
When Ma Tenghua heard Zhang Siyuan's answer, he was stunned for a moment, and then smiled dumbly: "Mr. Zhang is really sincere, so what about now?"
"Now, of course, to make more money. Zhang Siyuan gave another answer that made Ma Tenghua cry and laugh.
"As far as I know, Mr. Zhang's current money is enough to spend a lifetime, right?" To Zhang Siyuan's surprise, Ma Tenghua would say such a sentence.
Zhang Siyuan replied without hesitation: "That's the way, but the people who follow me, they don't make money that can be spent for a lifetime." ”
"I'm making money now, and I'm not just thinking about myself. By the way, there are all the employees of the entire Times Technology, and I must take them on a steady journey. It can be said that I have now just changed from making money by myself to making money with a group of people. ”
"Then what does Mr. Zhang think about the future of instant messaging software?" Ma Tenghua did not entangle with Zhang Siyuan on this issue, but asked questions related to both of them.
Zhang Siyuan thought for a while and said: "I think that in the future, instant messaging software will occupy a large part of people's lives and become an indispensable product for people. Here's my idea for the future of instant messaging software, and that's about what it looks like. ”
Regarding the question asked by Ma Tenghua, Zhang Siyuan felt that there was nothing to avoid. Anyway, Tencent is finished, and it won't have any impact on them at all.
Now it's just a discussion about the future of instant messaging apps, and nothing else.
After Ma Tenghua listened, he asked with some uncertainty: "Mr. Zhang is so sure?"
"Yes, I think instant messaging apps are going to be an indispensable thing in the future. For me, what I want to do is not just instant messaging software, but social platforms. Instant messengers are just my foundation, my purpose is a social platform. Zhang Siyuan replied.
Ma Tenghua showed a thoughtful look: "Can you always explain to me the meaning of social platforms?"
Zhang Siyuan smiled indifferently: "Mr. Ma, the two of us are opponents. ”
Ma Tenghua naturally heard the meaning of Zhang Siyuan's words, which is the core secret of Times Technology. Not to mention that ordinary partners would not tell them, they were naked competitors before today, how could Zhang Siyuan tell him.
However, then Ma Tenghua said something that shocked Zhang Siyuan: "Mr. Zhang, that was before. Now that I'm not the chairman of Tencent, I don't have the slightest relationship with Tencent, so you think it's good to tell me a little bit about satisfying my curiosity, and I don't mind if I don't want to say anything at all. I'm just a little curious about your concept, that's all. ”
"What? What did you say? You are not the chairman of Tencent anymore?" Zhang Siyuan asked three times in shock.
Ma Tenghua smiled and leaned back in his chair: "Yes, it was just in the morning, and I was swept away." Of course, I am willing, otherwise they would not have let me leave Tencent so easily. ”
Zhang Siyuan was thundered by Ma Tenghua's words, if in the future, Tencent announced that Ma Tenghua would step down, and he had nothing to do with Tencent, then not to mention that the whole world was in chaos at this time, at least the country would be chaotic for a long time.
It can be said that Tencent has achieved Ma Huateng, but without Ma Tenghua, Tencent may not be able to reach that height. Now Ma Tenghua has left Tencent by himself, if this is placed in the future generations, I don't know how many people's eyeballs will be shocked.
Ma Tenghua looked at Zhang Siyuan's shocked appearance, and said indifferently: "I won't go around the bend with Mr. Zhang, I asked Mr. Zhang to meet today, the first is to talk to Mr. Zhang, and the second is to see if there is an opportunity to cooperate with Mr. Zhang." ”
"Cooperation?" Zhang Siyuan sneered at what Ma Tenghua said about not beating around the bush.
After talking so much just now, the two of them talked about something meaningful. Zhang Siyuan believes that as long as they want, the two of them can talk until dark and can't talk about anything meaningful.
Ma Tenghua nodded affirmatively: "Yes, cooperation, or rather, can Mr. Zhang enjoy a meal." ”
At this moment, Zhang Siyuan couldn't calm down, and asked in surprise: "Mr. Ma, what do you mean?"
As Mr. Zhang said, when he first stepped into the instant messaging software market, he saw the huge profits in it. It's just that after such a long time, the benefits are not only the motivation for me to continue to make instant messaging software, but also my goal to be the best instant messaging software. However, I found that no matter how much I tried to catch up, I couldn't keep up with the speed of technological development. So, I want to join Times Technology. Even if it's not the best instant messaging app I've ever made, I'll be a part of it. Ma Tenghua replied with a straight face.
After listening to Ma Tenghua's words, Zhang Siyuan suddenly fell into deep thought.
Regarding what Ma Tenghua said today, Zhang Siyuan was full of doubts in his heart.
Ma Tenghua left Tencent so suddenly to join Times Technology. Zhang Siyuan's first reaction was to refuse, but thinking that Ma Tenghua could bring Tencent to such a height in his previous life, Zhang Siyuan hesitated again.
Ma Tenghua naturally saw Zhang Siyuan's hesitation, and then said: "Mr. Zhang, I know that my request is a bit reckless. Believe in my sincerity, though. I think you should know who is Tencent's largest shareholder and what you think about Times Technology. Tencent has been fighting Times Technology for a long time, and I don't want to fight anymore. So I chose to give up and be friends with Times Technology. ”
Zhang Siyuan was not silent anymore, but said: "Mr. Ma, you have given me a problem. ”
Ma Tenghua spread his hands: "Aren't we people born to exist to solve problems?" ”
"What is the situation of Tencent now?" Zhang Siyuan did not rush to answer Ma Tenghua's words that he wanted to join Times Technology, but asked about Tencent's situation.
Ma Tenghua replied without thinking: "Mr. Zhang, I can't answer this question. Although I have left Tencent, we still need to have professional ethics. ”
Zhang Siyuan nodded: "It's me who is reckless, then Mr. Ma, you want to join Times Technology, what can you bring to Times Technology?"
Ma Tenghua knew that his next answer was about whether he could join Times Technology, and pondered for a minute before replying: "I can double the technical team of Times Technology, all of which are programmers with senior experience." Then, I was able to make the technology of the times move faster than I do now. I have some plans here, which I originally wanted to use at Tencent. However, Tencent does not have the strength to implement these plans, and Times Technology has no problem at all. ”
As he spoke, Ma Tenghua took out a stack of materials from the bag on the ground and handed it to Zhang Siyuan.
After Zhang Siyuan took over the information, he couldn't wait to start looking at it, he was able to make the technology of the times as it is now, and he is the old book of the reborn. If you really want to talk about the real level, Zhang Siyuan estimates that he can't catch up with Ma Tenghua.
Gradually, the sound of Zhang Siyuan flipping Ma Tenghua's plan remained in the whole room. Ma Tenghua sat opposite Zhang Siyuan, watching Zhang Siyuan look through the information with a solemn face.
Half an hour later, Zhang Siyuan put the stack of materials on the table. But still didn't say a word, and sat there not knowing what to think.
Ma Tenghua didn't urge, just looked at Zhang Siyuan.
An hour later, Zhang Siyuan finally raised his head: "Mr. Ma, what you said can double the technical team of Times Technology, do you want to bring Tencent's technical team over?"
"Yes, they want me out, and I'm not going to make them feel good. Tencent is my brainchild, rather than let them spoil it, it is better for me to continue to exist in another capacity. Ma Tenghua replied.
Hearing this, Zhang Siyuan stood up and stretched out his right hand towards Ma Tenghua: "Mr. Ma, happy cooperation." ”
As Zhang Siyuan said this, Ma Tenghua also showed a smile on his face, and also said: "That Mr. Zhang, happy cooperation, please take care of me in the future." ”
On July 1, 2000, the most meaningful handshake between the two eras was reached in a hotel room in Pengcheng. Sadly, there were no other witnesses to such a historic moment.
