Chapter 161: Depressed Robin Li
(There is still only one chapter today, but it is 5000 words, and it will not be dismantled, fooling everyone.) Xiexie everyone supports!Tomorrow can finally return to normal 2 more. )
When Lin Feng left for Beijing, Lin Feng's lawsuit against 202 infringement companies also happened to be in session, but Lin Feng handed over the matter to lawyer Guo and Bao Jianfeng, and was not worried about the outcome of the lawsuit. After spending 1.01 million in lawyer fees and collecting so much evidence, it is natural to win the case.
On the day of the trial, except for a few large infringing websites, the rest of the websites did not attend. However, this did not prevent the court from hearing this infringement case, which caused a sensation in China. In the end, after several days of trial, the presiding judge announced that the 202 large and small websites were convicted of infringement, and ordered them to immediately withdraw the allegedly infringing works from their websites, and publicly disclose them on the websites, and bear the litigation costs this time.
Lin Feng's victory in suing 202 websites for infringement also directly opened a new chapter in China's piracy and infringement.
At this time, Beijing.
The 7.13 Stars Charity Gala, due to the participation of many top superstars in Hong Kong, was not only popular with reporters, but also by many fans. What's especially funny is that many fans also have conflicts with each other because of the different idols they support. One shouted louder than the other, you shouted "Andy Lau, I love you!", I shouted "Jacky Cheung, long live!", making Beijing Ritan International Hotel restless, and the cheers of supporting stars can be heard one after another in the workers' stadium from afar.
It's funny to say, this time Lin Feng originally chose the Capital Stadium as the venue for this charity performance party, but as soon as the news was released, it was strongly protested by all celebrity fans. They believe that the capacity of the Capital Stadium is too small, with only 18,000 seats, which is far from meeting their needs.
In the end, Lin Feng had no choice but to choose the Beijing Workers' Stadium, a complex stadium that can accommodate 80,000 people. Although the on-site lighting and speaker effects cannot be compared with the Capital Stadium, and the seats have been expanded from 18,000 to 80,000, concert tickets are still hard to find.
The cheapest ticket price of 480 yuan has been speculated to 1200 yuan by scalpers outside, and it is still in short supply. For this, Lin Feng had to sigh that the charm of the star is huge, and the enthusiasm of the fans is crazy.
The only ones who are distressed are the reporters, and the arrival of many emperors and superstars has brought confusion to the reporters. In the past, it was not easy to interview one, but now it is good that almost all the superstars of the Hong Kong emperor have come to Beijing, so that the reporters do not know who to interview.
The unimaginable star effect, the fanatical fans who are so crazy that they almost faint, the reporters who interview and write to the point of softness, and the overwhelming newspapers and periodicals that report all over the world make the whole Beijing impetuous, and it seems that even the air is not so peaceful, making people feel that Beijing is particularly hot this summer.
At the Beijing headquarters of Baidu Network Jishu Company, Robin Li, as chairman and CEO, seems to have become extremely impetuous because he has sucked in the impetuous air outside. However, fans and reporters outside were crazy and impetuous because of the presence of many emperors and superstars, but Robin Li was irritated by the two tickets on the table.
These two tickets are the tickets for the now popular 7.13 Workers' Stars Charity Gala, which were sent to him and another partner, Xu Yong, through a courier company. At first, Robin Li was surprised to receive these two tickets. He has lived in the United States for eight years, although he has heard of these stars in Hong Kong, but he has been in the intense schedule of study and work, he does not like these stars, and never goes to listen to these star concerts, but today he received 2 concert tickets, which made him have to be surprised.
However, when Robin Li saw that the mailer's name was Lin Feng, president of the Lin Group, he was stunned. Lin Feng's name, although it is not a household name now, but in the IT industry, especially in the online game industry, it is definitely like thunder, how could Robin Li not have heard of Lin Feng's name, and he also knows a lot about Lin Feng's deeds.
From the creation of fast food chains to fight against McDonald's and Kentuck, the world's two largest fast food chains, to Dingdang.com, which overtook eBay in one fell swoop and became the largest online trading platform in China, to set off a boom in the domestic online game market, and dominate the online game market, and was later teased by the media as an online game tycoon who loves Jiangshan and loves beauty more, it only took 18 months.
18 months, in just 18 months, Lin Feng has gone from an unknown person to a figure in the domestic IT industry, this achievement surprised everyone, and he was too young. The future is limitless.
But what was the purpose of him inviting me to watch this concert?--Robin Li never thought that Lin Feng was just inviting himself to watch a concert and getting to know each other. He is already a successful person, he is still in the early stage of entrepreneurship, to put it mildly, everyone's status is completely unequal, why did he invite himself?
Could it be that he has become interested in his own Baidu? -- This is the only possibility that Robin Li can think of, but his own Baidu is not related to his online game company, so why is he interested? After thinking about it for a long time, Robin Li, who was puzzled, decided to take a look at it first, at least to understand Lin Feng's intentions, and then make a decision.
When all the emperor's superstars came to Beijing, Beijing became more and more impetuous, everywhere you can see fans holding celebrity posters or wearing T-shirts printed with celebrity portraits, and many reporters are also interspersed, not only interviewing celebrities, but also interviewing fanatical fans, and the crazy reports of reporters also make this charity performance a grand event.
After receiving the Four Heavenly Kings and many superstars, Lin Feng discussed the performance of the day after tomorrow, and held a rehearsal of the star chorus "Beijing Welcomes You", and held a press conference with the four heavenly kings and the most important superstars Leslie Cheung, Faye Wong and others.
At this press conference, the Stars Charity Foundation officially became a well-known charity fund in the country, providing a way for many students who are unable to continue their studies due to financial difficulties in the future.
At the press conference, Lin Feng announced that the 120 million donations raised in Hong Kong and the 10 million donations he donated, as well as all the proceeds from this charity performance gala, will be used as the start-up funds of the foundation to support students who are unable to continue their studies and have the desire to study, and to provide living subsidies for students who are extremely difficult.
At the same time, Lin Feng also announced that this fund will continue to make a modest contribution to China's education. It was also announced that 1/4 of the income of all students who received financial assistance in the first three years will be compulsorily donated to the fund after graduation and finding a job, which will be used to support other students.
At the press conference, many of the emperor's superstars also said that they would hold a similar charity performance once a year to raise funds for the fund and contribute their liliang.
At the end of the press conference, Lin Feng also revealed that he would sing a song for the stars tonight to celebrate Beijing's successful bid to host the 2008 Olympic Games. Many reporters were extremely interested in this topic, and asked Lin Feng why he was so convinced that Beijing would succeed, after all, Beijing lost the 2000 Sydney Olympics, and this time it did not rule out the possibility of another failure.
Lin Feng smiled slightly, saying that Beijing will be successful this year. Lin Feng's self-confidence attracted the suspicion of many reporters, but no matter what, this press conference was a great joy for everyone, and everyone took what they wanted.
Lin Feng has a well-known charitable foundation for students, which has added an important sum to his capital, and no matter what happens in the future, the state must always consider its own charitable foundation; many emperors and superstars have become increasingly popular these days, and their worth has also risen a lot; many reporters have also obtained a large amount of materials, which can be fully utilized, so that the sales of tomorrow's newspapers and periodicals will increase greatly.
After the press conference, Lin Feng took the time to go to "Deyun Club". The first is to meet Guo Degang, so as not to break up the relationship between everyone without seeing each other for a long time; Although Guo Degang definitely doesn't listen to this kind of concert, it doesn't mean that Guo Degang's friends and apprentices don't like to listen to it. A few tickets can be exchanged for the gratitude and friendship of others, and it is worth it.
After intense preparations and busyness, this charity performance party, which attracted much attention from the Chinese people, finally started at 8 pm on July 13.
The Beijing Workers' Stadium, which can accommodate 80,000 people, is full. Before the show even began, the screams of many fanatical fans brought the atmosphere in the stadium to a climax. When the first performance superstar Andy Lau appeared, the atmosphere reached a boiling point.
Andy Lau's popularity in China is unparalleled, in terms of seniority, Andy Lau is by no means the first even if it is not the finale, but the people present are all emperor superstars, and no one wants to appear first, after all, the latter appearance proves that the people behind are more weighty, which can also ask for a higher price when negotiating contracts with advertisers and other businesses.
In desperation, Andy Lau volunteered to be the first to appear, which also made this performance extremely smooth, otherwise there may really be contradictions because of the order of appearance, then I am afraid it will really be a disaster.
The madness in the stadium did not affect Lin Feng in the box in the slightest, and the real purpose of his trip was to meet Robin Li and Xu Yong.
"Dong Li, Mr. Xu, it's the first time we meet, please give me a lot of advice!" Lin Feng greeted the two warmly and politely.
"Lin Dong is good!" the two glanced at each other and frowned secretly. The more enthusiastic Lin Feng was, the more it showed that he would have something to ask for this time, and it also made the two of them more and more uneasy.
However, to the surprise of the two of them, Lin Feng just greeted the two of them to drink, eat snacks, and watch the performance, but did not mention the purpose of inviting the two of them to come this time, which made the two of them restless, and they were not in the slightest mood to appreciate this extremely wonderful concert, and looked absent-mindedly, but they figured out Lin Feng's true intentions in their hearts.
Looking at the cramped expressions of Robin Li and Xu Yong, Lin Feng secretly had fun. This trick is called "watching the fire from the other side", they think that they must have something to ask, and they are anxious to know their intentions, so they don't say it, but hang them here, make them uncomfortable, and then when they can't hold their breath, they will bring up jihua again. This may not necessarily lead to the greatest benefits, but at least it will take the initiative in the negotiations.
As the performance progressed, Robin Li became even more anxious. Although he secretly speculated in his heart that Lin Feng must have come for his own Baidu, Li Yanhong didn't know what the purpose was. Whether it is cooperation or financing or others, there are too many possibilities, each of which can have a profound impact on Baidu, but Lin Feng did not mention a word, which made Robin Li not anxious.
After thinking for a long time, seeing that Lin Feng still didn't mention the purpose of inviting the two of them this time, Robin Li glanced at Xu Yong.
"Uh, Lin Dong, I don't know if you invited the two of us to come this time, what advice do you have?" Xu Yong comprehended, broke the deadlock, and asked.
Robin Li paid close attention to Lin Feng's every move, wanting to observe what Lin Feng's purpose was this time. He asked Xu Yong to ask, first, Xu Yong, as his partner and the second core figure of the company, had enough weight, and at the same time, Xu Yong's question also left a way out for Baidu and Baidu.
Lin Feng listened, knowing that the other party couldn't help it, but it was not the best time, only when Robin Li couldn't help but ask questions in person, it was the best time to uncover the mystery himself.
"Well, Mr. Xu, I invited you two this time, mainly because I want to get to know them, and I think we will have a lot of opportunities for cooperation in the future. Lin Feng's false and real words made Li Yanhong even more confused, and he didn't know what Lin Feng's intentions were.
The box was silent again, Lin Feng watched the concert while observing the expressions of Robin Li and Xu Yong, drinking silently, waiting for the best time to appear.
As time passed, when Beijing time, the clock pointed to 22:15, the big screen appeared on the scene of Beijing's Olympic bid, under the introduction of the host of the scene, all the audience knew that the Olympic bid has entered the second tense theory, as long as Beijing in the second theory to get more than 52 votes, will be awarded the right to host the 2008 Olympic Games.
In the midst of the audience's breathless gaze, IOC President Samaranch solemnly announced at the venue of the Shijie Trade Center: Beijing, the host city of the 2008 Olympic Games.
With the cheers of the Chinese representatives on the big screen, the Beijing Workers' Stadium also boiled over, both the stars and the audience shouted "Beijing, China!" in unison, and the haode fireworks that had been prepared in advance were also lit at this time and launched into the sky above the Workers' Stadium, and the colorful words "2008" were so dazzling in the night sky.
Before the performance of "Welcome Another Morning and Bring New Air", the song that has been passed down to celebrate the success of Beijing's Olympic bid was also sung by many emperors and superstars.
All the audience in the venue stood up excitedly, applauding and beating for the singing stars, interpreting the excitement in their hearts.
"Chairman Li, Mr. Xu, cheers to Beijing's successful hosting of the 2008 Olympic Games!" Lin Feng raised his glass.
"Cheers!" Although Robin Li and Xu Yong were also excited about Beijing's success in hosting the 2008 Olympic Games, they seemed a little uneasy because they had been unable to understand Lin Feng's attitude.
"Brother Lin!" At this time, Li Zhiyou and others knocked on the door and came in. Li Zhiyou has finished performing, and there is the real finale behind it, and it is impossible to talk about them.
"Dong Li, Mr. Xu, let me introduce you to you. Lin Feng introduced Li Zhiyou, Lin Zhizhi, Huang Meixi, Liu Yingying, Wu Zhaopu and others to Li Yanhong and Xu Yong.
Robin Li and Xu Yong got up and shook hands one by one, but everyone could see the thoughts on their faces.
However, what made Robin Li and Xu Yong vomit blood was that until the end of the performance, Lin Feng did not tell them the real purpose of inviting them this time, as if they were really just here to enjoy a star-studded concert.
"Dong Li, Mr. Xu, Xiexie admires his face tonight. Lin Feng shook hands and said goodbye.
"You're welcome, as it should be. The two of them hung their heads and were hung by Lin Feng all night, and the two of them were almost tortured and vomited blood, they still didn't know what Lin Feng's intentions were. It's just that there are many people around Lin Feng now, and they are not easy to ask.
"By the way, Chairman Li, Mr. Xu, I want to meet you tomorrow to discuss the cooperation between our two companies. Lin Feng said suddenly.
When this sentence came out, Li Yanhong and Xu Yong's hearts were relieved, and they finally got to the point. But tomorrow will be discussed, and tonight they seem to be sleepless all night.
After the two left, Liu Yingying smiled.
"You're really, you really torture people if you dry them all night, not to mention it, but all night. Liu Yingying covered her mouth and chuckled, feeling sad for Robin Li and Xu Yong.
Wu Zhaopu also secretly prayed for Li Yanhong and Xu Yong, and they were estimated to die this night.
Lin Feng was also quite proud. This is also a trick that I realized after reading the deeds and autobiographies of many business predecessors not long ago. Now he is strong, "second shijie", fast food restaurant, and Dingdang.com have become the most haode company in China, and he is also worth more than 100 million;
Lin Feng previously found someone to investigate, and now Baidu's total assets are worth about 30 million US dollars at most, of which DFJ (DFJ Investment Fund) raised 8.5 million US dollars in September last year, accounting for 28.33% of the shares, IDG Venture Capital Fund raised 1.5 million US dollars in the same period, accounting for 5% of the shares, Robin Li personally holds 50% of the shares, Xu Yong holds 15% of the shares, and the remaining shares are held by the company's employees.
With this equity distribution ratio, even after listing, Robin Li and other executives still have absolute control over the company, but Lin Feng saw a gap in it, a gap that allowed him to drill into the air.
