Chapter 554: Who's the Monopoly? (Asking for a Monthly Pass!)

In the meeting room, dozens of pairs of eyes gathered on Jiang Chen's body again. Sensing the arrogance in Li Yanhong's eyes, Jiang Chen immediately understood his thoughts.

It was not only industry insiders and officials drinking tea in the meeting room, but also reporters standing next to him with cameras waiting for him to speak. At this time, if it is stage fright, it will undoubtedly make the future technology fall into the success of Baidu Company.

As the chairman of the Future People Group, Jiang Chen certainly wouldn't let such a thing happen. Although he had not prepared a draft about the future of the Internet, he thought for a moment and stood up with a smile.

Because he didn't know what opening sentence was more appropriate, Jiang Chen cleared his throat first, and at the same time organized the language in his brain.

Hearing two light coughs, not only the CEOs of Internet companies who couldn't name them, but even the two presidents took out their notebooks.

Seeing this scene, Jiang Chen couldn't help but think of it in his heart.

I just coughed twice.

"Then, since Mr. Li invited, then I will not refuse. ”

"I'll just talk about the future of the Internet," after a pause, Jiang Chen raised a finger, "Innovation." ”

The sound of brushing notes sounded, making Jiang Chen couldn't help but feel a little proud, and couldn't help but feel a little ashamed. What makes him proud is that these Internet bigwigs, who were originally unattainable, are now burying their heads like students to listen to his opinions. And what is ashamed is that the opinions he is going to talk about next are just random things that he made up on the spot.

"From P2P to O2O, the penetration of Internet technology into our lives has penetrated into various fields. Ostensibly this is an evolution of social behavior. But at the end of the day, they are born thanks to innovation. And what is the driving force behind innovation?"

glanced at the Internet bigwigs in the audience and looked at the attentive looks on their faces. The corners of Jiang Chen's mouth couldn't help but curl a little, and he raised a second finger.

"It's technology. ”

"The launch of any new technology means the birth of a new market. For example, the technology of Future Man 1.0 to improve the efficiency of hardware operation has given birth to a large number of apps and mobile games with high configuration requirements. Virtual reality technology, for example, is about to open the door to the virtual world. Here, I am not showing off the technology of futuristic technology, but I am illustrating such a fact. There's no denying it. The importance of other factors to a company. But what I want to say is that what determines the current market position of Futureren Technology and even the entire Futureren Group is neither a marketing method nor a business relationship. It's the technology ......"

Originally, Jiang Chen just planned to say a few words casually, but as soon as the box was opened, more than ten minutes passed in a blink of an eye. I didn't talk about any difficult big truths, just why Future Technology can grow from a small enterprise with an initial capital of only 500,000 yuan. In a year and a half, it has developed into a money printing machine that has been wildly valued at hundreds of billions of dollars by Wall Street.

Maybe it's because Jiang Chen's words really inspired the audience in some ways. Or maybe it's because humans are inherently immune to successology.

All in all, the audience here was fascinated by what they heard.

When his speech ended, the room immediately burst into applause!

Jiang Chen sat down and looked at Li Yanhong with a smile. However, to Jiang Chen's surprise, he didn't see a look of disappointment or anything like that on the face of the boss Baidu, but saw a touch of ...... A triumphant smile?

The applause gradually stopped, and I saw Li Yanhong stand up again and look at Jiang Chen with a smile.

"Excellent presentation. Personally, I couldn't agree more with you," paused. Mr. Li looked at the media outside the meeting room, continued to interpret the smile, and said, "Science and technology are the steps of human progress, because of technology, our tomorrow will be better." As the chairman of an Internet company, I believe that the spirit of the Internet is sharing. So, Mr. Jiang Chen, are you willing to make your company's virtual reality technology public to Chinese enterprises for the sake of your motherland to become a big Internet country, adhering to the selflessness of sharing and common progress?"

The atmosphere in the meeting room suddenly became delicate.

Pan Feng, minister of the Ministry of Economy and Trade, looked at Li Yanhong with some surprise, while the representatives of Internet companies and reporters present looked at Jiang Chen expectantly. Ma Huateng casually peeked at Jiang Chen and Li Yanhong, and was silent. He couldn't figure out what it meant for Baidu to play such a hand.

Under the gaze of countless eyes, Jiang Chen slowly opened his mouth.

"With all due respect, could it be that Mr. Li calls his act of generosity to others sharing?"

Li Yanhong was obviously stunned, he didn't expect Jiang Chen to say this suddenly, but he quickly reflected and responded with a smile, "Of course not, you misunderstood what I meant." What I'm referring to is that you can register a patent in exchange for disclosure for technical protection, and charge royalties to companies that use the technology. In this way, it not only ensures the interests of your company, but also facilitates the Chinese Internet enterprises to enter the virtual reality market fairly, why don't you do it?"

As soon as these two words were finished, the two hats were fastened on Jiang Chen's head. One is generous, the other is lovely. If you refuse, you will knock over these two hats. Obviously, the two have nothing to do with each other, but they are connected by a logic that does not exist. This is similar to the popular "You are so rich, why don't you donate?", "XXXX, if you don't turn around, you are not Chinese". These two sentences have the same effect.

You have world-leading technology, why don't you come up and share it with us?

"I refuse. ”

Li Yanhong was stunned, the Internet entrepreneurs sitting there were also stunned, and the reporter next to him was also stunned. Although they themselves didn't quite believe that Jiang Chen would hand over the technology because of two or three sentences, they didn't expect that Jiang Chen would refuse so simply that he would euphemistically whitewash it without any modifiers.

"You are a monopoly, using your dominant market position to hinder technological progress. Are you sure you want this?" said Li Yanhong.

Hearing his words, Jiang Chen suddenly burst out laughing.

"Monopoly? Abuse of market dominance? Is this really good for you to say? Mr. Li. ”

"Why can't I tell it?" A flash of annoyance flashed in Li Yanhong's eyes, but his face remained the same. "Don't you make people do something wrong—"

"Buy and sell posters, peddle search rankings, fake medical advertisements. Unscrupulously infringe on copyright, because a webmaster has a sentence or two of accusations on the scarf, and directly blocks other people's websites in the search entry...... What you're doing is maintaining market order? Hehe, let's not talk about anything else. Please tell me, Mr. Lee. Do you dare to do the same thing in your own country? Li, who has a green card, do you dare to answer my question?"

looked directly into Li Yan's eyes. Jiang Chen said word by word.

The scandal was suddenly put on the table, and Li Yanhong, who was originally at ease, suddenly showed an embarrassed expression.

"This is slander, be careful in public about your words. If something goes wrong, you're responsible!"

"Excuse me, then, to refute the facts I have laid out. Jiang Chen smiled.

"There is no need to refute it at all! Everything our company has done is legitimate and legal, and we have not been caught in a big lawsuit. This has been proven!" Li Yanhong has passed the green card affair. He's been careful to keep it hidden. Although this is not a secret in the industry, it has a bad impact when put on the table.

Jiang Chen suddenly smiled again, this time he was much more cheerful than last time.

"You, what are you laughing at!" Li Yanhong blushed and said embarrassedly.

"It's another joke, but it's not convenient to say, so I won't say more. Jiang Chen smiled and nodded at Pan Feng, who looked away. The former moved his attention back to Li Yanhongdi, "The technology of Future People Technology is all independently developed by the enterprise. Its technology is reasonable and legal as a corporate secret. As for the monopoly you are talking about, I would like to ask, what is the definition of monopoly, and is your whiteness considered a monopoly?"

"What is the definition of monopoly? Hehe, Mr. Jiang's enterprise is so big, he still needs to study law. The definition of monopoly is, of course, based on market share. As for us, of course we are not a monopoly, and I am not the only search engine. I'm doing it, and of course you can do it, and I'm not using my market position to forbid anyone to do it. We have only achieved today's market position by virtue of strong user stickiness and trust in us. Li quibbled.

"Then do I have a market position to use future technology to prohibit you from designing, researching, and selling your own virtual reality products?" Jiang Chen asked with interest, his fingers crossed on his knees, "I know that you have begun to control domestic VR companies, and you are ready to do hardware and content across borders at the same time, and then launch your own VR products while implementing a pan-entertainment strategy, I know all of this." But you can't unilaterally accuse us of constituting a monopoly and interfering with the market just because we are inferior in technology, right? You rely on sticky stickiness, we rely on technology and user experience, can you assert that you are more noble?"

"You!" Li Yanhong blushed, unable to say anything to refute for a while.

"Monopoly, the world's multinational large enterprises are more or less involved in monopoly, some people have formed a monopoly through advanced technology, some people have formed a monopoly through the business philosophy of 'customer is God', and some people have relied on their irreplaceable characteristics. But in any case, they are monopolies formed under market competition. Let's not talk about me here, but about you. Li, you touch your conscience, do you dare to say that you are a monopoly formed under market competition? Is the monopoly of Baidu Company benign to this market?"

Li Yanhong's face turned the color of pig liver, and Jiang Chen's words left him speechless. Just now, Mr. Ma was going to help, but he glanced at the media next to him and swallowed back the words that came to his mouth.

Pan Feng, who was sitting in the chief, couldn't stand it anymore, and coughed lightly in embarrassment.

"Please sit down, we are here to seek cooperation, not differences. In terms of whiteness, he hopes that Future Man Technology will provide virtual reality technology, which is understandable from his standpoint. It is understandable that Futureman Technology rejected the proposal of Baidu. I hope that your next conversation will take place in a friendly atmosphere, and the media will not make any further reports about it. Glancing meaningfully at the media reporters present, Pan Feng didn't say much and withdrew his gaze.

was stirred up by the two-for-tat, and the originally lively atmosphere suddenly became a little embarrassing.

Ma Huateng stood up, coughed, and prepared to play the role of peacemaker, "Then, the talks will continue—"

"I'll just say a little bit about working together on virtual reality projects. Jiang Chen stood up, interrupted Mr. Ma's words, and looked at Li Yanhong, who was pale, with an indifferent expression, "Collaborators are welcome, and those who make trouble unreasonably are good for themselves." ”

After speaking, regardless of the stunned bosses of the Big Three and the media reporters present, Jiang Chen brushed his sleeves away. (To be continued.) )
