Chapter 505: Google Wants to Buy Potatoes
When Korn Ferry Group made frequent moves in the domestic market, it did not relax at all in the foreign market.
First of all, Guanghui UAV referred to the domestic hype model and began to hype topics such as "drone sending engagement rings" and "drone aerial photography" on Twitter. And the sleepiness touched the pillow was that at this time, a drone enthusiast used the X1 of the Brilliant Drone to break into the White House.
AOL: The White House confirmed yesterday that law enforcement found a small drone breaking into the White House on the same day, and the Secret Service is launching a security investigation into it......
A series of intentional or unintentional publicity and promotion have made the glorious drone quickly enter the field of vision of ordinary people in the United States.
As the most developed country in the world's private aviation industry and market, the United States has many aviation enthusiasts, and in addition to playing fixed-wing aircraft, some people are more interested in drones.
Considering that the United States is the most important market for Tejas UAVs at this stage, the company now has offices in New York and Los Angeles. At the same time, it is also discussing with Amazon about the launch of the Tejas drone.
The glorious drone also timely began to place advertisements on Tudou.com, Meituan and other websites, and all of a sudden, the number of users who called to inquire increased greatly, and it is expected that the sales of the glorious drone can reach a new level.
……
U.S. Electricity.
"How can there be drones in this purchase requisition? What do we want drones for?".
"This is an application submitted by the Ministry of Monitoring, saying that it is used to patrol power lines".
"Don't we have helicopters?".
"Yes, but the maintenance cost of the helicopter is too high, and the monitoring department overruns the budget every year because of this problem, so this year they changed their minds."
"Is this a mistake written? A hundred drones only applied for a budget of three million?".
"I heard that they are going to buy Radiant drones from the Celestial Empire, and three million dollars should be enough to buy a hundred."
"Is that the glorious drone that has been very popular on Twitter recently?".
"Yes".
"Tell me when you come back from purchasing, and I'll go see the effect of using it."
……
A MIT café.
"Charles, did you see that drone that went so hot on Twitter?".
"Is it a glorious drone with a promotional video on Tudou.com?".
"yes, what's wrong? James".
"Are you interested in us working together to develop drones? Don't you think drones seem to be fun?"
"But aren't we all learning about aircraft design?"
"What's the matter? You studied computer science, I studied mechanical design, and that's enough."
"I'll think about it".
"What else are you thinking about? Let's do it, our drone Charles James in the future".
"Okay, let's do it."
……
Grumman.
"Have you ever heard of the Tejas drone?".
"Is that the glorious drone that was used to send rings and proposals?".
"In your eyes, it's for giving rings? Don't you think that drone is very distinctive? Don't you see that they can be used for aerial photography and patrols?"
"I think the development of UAVs is still mainly fixed-wing, and the flight speed of multi-rotor is slow, which cannot be achieved for lenses that require high altitude and high speed, and the flight distance is short."
"You can't just see people's shortcomings. Multi-rotor UAVs can take off and land vertically, do not need catapults, launchers, and launchers, can hover, fly sideways, and fly upside down, and are small in size, light in weight, low noise, good in concealment, suitable for multi-platform, multi-space use These advantages Why don't you see it?".
"We Grumman mainly do military products, multi-rotor UAVs have no market in this area, we just need to deepen the fixed-wing aircraft."
"I hope you're sticking to the right thing."
……
Just when the Tejas drone began to grab the headlines of Americans, Twitter and Tudou also entered the eyes of those who care. To be precise, they have never left in the eyes of those who have a heart, but this time the action is bigger.
……
Google.
"Is Tudou's U.S. branch still unwilling to talk to us about the acquisition?"
"I've met with their leaders a few times, and they said that the head office has no intention of selling the business of the US branch, but if we are just involved in financing, then we can talk about it."
"How many shares are they willing to give away?"
"I didn't talk about it specifically, but I don't think it will be more than 20%. The boss behind Tudou.com is a very young and far-sighted person, very famous in the Celestial Empire, with many companies under his umbrella. He is said to be the majority shareholder of Twitter, Meituan and Facebook. According to my guess, he won't give up too much of his stake easily."
"I'm not going to the Celestial Empire next week, see if I can make an appointment with that Jiang Hui, I want to talk to him in person."
"I'm going to get in touch, but it shouldn't be a big problem if we just meet and talk."
Google has a soft spot for Tudou because video sites have slowly become the most logged-in app for Internet users.
In the previous life, Google acquired Youtube because Youtube had created an exciting and powerful media platform that aligned with Google's vision. Both companies share similar values, put the user first, and are committed to improving the user experience through innovation. As a result, Google sees itself and Youtube as a natural partner to provide attractive media and entertainment services to users, content owners, and advertisers.
To put it bluntly, Google is interested in the attractiveness of video websites to traffic, and indirectly they are interested in the attractiveness of video websites to advertisers.
And in this life, Tudou is doing better than Youtube and is more attractive to Google. Although Youtube also appears now, it is completely incomparable to the scale of Tudou. You must know that the Internet is a big fish all-fish world, and if you want to invest, it is best to invest in the first company in the industry.
This is also the reason why Google has been obsessed with Tudou.
……
"Mr. Jiang, Google's Page wants to meet you?".
"Ask me to meet? Will he come to the Celestial Empire or will I go to the United States?" What does he want to talk about?", Jiang Hui asked Liao Yundao.
"It is said that Page happened to come to the Celestial Empire next week to have something to do, and he wanted to meet you in the imperial capital. As for the content of the conversation, it is estimated that it has something to do with Tudou."
"Google is still coveting Tudou.com, and it said it wouldn't sell it last year."
"Mr. Fang has also expressed his views many times, but it is said that Google's attitude has changed, and it may only be planning to take a stake now."
"Then let's meet and see what conditions he can offer."
"Okay, then I'll arrange it".
Real gold is not afraid of red furnace fire, and the aroma of wine is not afraid of deep alleys. Tudou, whether in the United States or in the Celestial Empire, is the absolute leader in the market, and there is no need to worry about running over.
