Most people who like the California climate won't like the weather in Rochester, growing up in the north, especially in the Sunshine Coast. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

If you don't like it, you don't like it, but Rochester has become a blessed place for learning the Tao.

In the Rochester Hotel restaurant, Hong Chengfu, who "traveled thousands of miles", had a flash of inspiration and contributed a golden idea, cleverly opening a door on the cement wall in front of Bian Xuedao.

Although Bian Xuedao did not come up with the idea of "focusing on the African mobile phone market", as the helmsman of Youdao Group, he has the vision to distinguish the value of ideas, and it can be seen that the feasibility of the "low-end and high-end" strategy proposed by Hong Chengfu is very high.

Therefore, Bian Xuedao promised the title of "First Meritorious Hero" to Hong Chengfu.

This is not a hot and impulsive promise in the brain, but people who do business know that the most important thing for an enterprise is to find the right direction in the "critical time period".

Because whether it is an individual or a business, many times direction is more important than ability.

The so-called "opposite direction", the wrong direction, the faster the horse, the farther the return journey.

For enterprises, after determining the strategic direction, it is inevitable to invest a lot of manpower and capital. Once the strategic direction is wrong, such as betting on Symbian in Android and Symbian, such as betting on feature phones before the wave of smartphones, the resources invested by enterprises are still trivial, and the biggest loss is the cost of time, which is the key opportunity period to seize the market.

Meantime......

Anyone who plays a large game knows that for the same full-level account, the correct number of skill points is much stronger than the wrong number of skill points. Because the correct skill points can point out powerful burst skills and control skills, while the wrong skill points can not point out powerful skills, even if they are wrong, they can't point out.

Use the game to compare the enterprise, the powerful explosive skills and control skills are actually the core technology and core competitiveness of the enterprise, lack of these two, in the game with the level and equipment to crush the trumpet is no problem, but once you meet the same level and equipment of the correct plus player, will be abused by people's explosive skills and control skills to doubt life.

However, a game is a game, and reality is reality.

You can spend money to wash some points in the game, but it's really not possible to delete the number and repractice.

In reality, if a company makes a mistake in strategic direction, even the most brilliant business empire can collapse.

Take Youdao Group as an example, if it is based on Bian Xuedao's assumption, it will make efforts on the three fronts of mobile phone manufacturing, OLED R&D and graphene R&D at the same time, even if it relies on external financing and the entire group to support this strategy, it will undoubtedly greatly consume Youdao's strategic resources.

In particular, two of the three fronts are cutting-edge technologies, and both of these cutting-edge technologies are beyond the scope of the "prophets" of Bian Xuedao.

Having said that, even if OLED and graphene are not beyond the scope of Bian Xuedao's prophets, he is unlikely to influence the progress of scientific and technological research and development as a newspaper reviewer.

The "prophets" are men, not gods.

"Prophets" are not omnipotent, there are blind spots in information, and people have the ability to boundary, and at the same time, they are also subject to the constraints of the scientific and technological foundation of the times, social concepts, and political and economic factors.

Therefore, in the case of the unpredictable success or failure of OLED and graphene, the mobile phone front has become a "confidence line of defense".

If the mobile phone strategy of Dao Group can successfully break through, it can ensure the confidence of the outside world in Bian Xuedao and Youdao Group. It's like after the successful launch of "Falcon 1", Musk immediately became the object of capital pursuit, scrambling to send money for him to burn.

To put it bluntly, it is not necessarily that investors have confidence in the project, but that investors have confidence in Musk, who has already created miracles.

To a certain extent, Bian Xuedao is also a miracle worker, so he intends to raise funds.

……

……

It seems that he has been destined for a long time, and at the same time that Bian Xuedao decided to raise money to play a big game, the "miracle" aura on his head brightened a little brighter-

-- In China, the "stealing of vegetables" of the happy network has exploded, and it has become popular all over the country in just over half a month. Newspapers, TV stations, and web portals all went into battle, and all kinds of news about "crazy stealing vegetables" were overwhelming, which attracted the attention of foreign media.

-- Abroad, the number of KKI downloads has risen rapidly, and the user experience praise has appeared on social media. Then more and more people joined the team to experience KKI, and they were immediately tied up by KKI's "circle of acquaintances" based on mobile phone contacts. After the experience, many people not only did not uninstall KKI, but instead became the origin of the "KKI social circle", pulling their relatives, colleagues, friends, and classmates in.

As a result, some US media outlets typed a shocking headline -- "Mobile communication software from China spreads like an extremely contagious virus in the United States at a high speed!" "Beware of Chinese spying on you!"

As soon as the negative report came out, the North American branch of "KKI Technology" immediately responded.

Cai Zizhu and Li Jingwei showed their own powers, used their respective resources to speak out, and blocked the embankment of "information security" as soon as possible.

During this period, the biggest contribution was Li Jingwei.

Li Jingwei, who knows that the big boss Bian Xuedao is in the United States, has worked as a reporter, an assistant to a parliamentarian press officer, and a senior executive in the public relations department of Deloitte, one of the world's four largest accounting firms, is "full of firepower", and has made full use of the various preparations made by Youdao Group for KKI to enter the United States, and has gained the upper hand in the public opinion debate, so that the first few media have almost nowhere to speak.

It seems that a battle has been won, but Bian Xuedao and the "KKI Technology" team both know that the opponent is just temporarily silent.

So Bian Xuedao decided to throw money.

……

……

United States, March 10, New Haven, Connecticut.

At 9 o'clock in the morning, Bian Xuedao and his entourage took a car to Yale University, Hong Chengfu's alma mater.

As early as a month and a half ago, Hong Chengfu contacted Yale University to communicate about Bian Xuedao's donation to Yale, and finally the two sides decided that Bian Xuedao would donate $15 million to Yale University in his personal name.

15 million US dollars, which is equivalent to about 100 million yuan, is not a small amount of money in any country.

Taking out so much money to give away at once, is it because you are learning to burn more money? Is it because schools in China don't need to donate?

Of course not!

From a starting point, the $15 million is the advertising fee paid by Bian Xuedao for KKI to enter the United States, or an investment to brush up the favorability of Americans, in order to strive for a stable growth period for KKI and avoid being strangled in the cradle.

Because even if KKI is only popular in the United States for one year, or even half a year, as long as it exists, it means that KKI has conquered the American market, and it is the pride of China's IT industry.

There are many factors that determine victory or defeat, but as long as our product is not bad, even if we still lose in the end, we can walk away with our heads held high.

At 10:20 a.m., Bian Xuedao and Yale officially signed a donation agreement.

Twenty minutes later, a photo of Bian Xuedao and Yale University President Richard C. Levine signing the donation agreement came out, and public opinion in the United States was lively, and public opinion in China was silent.

Eerie silence!
