Chapter 252: The Smoke of Gunfire Rises Again
Ji Yan's eyes flashed a touch of disappointment, SK Group's strategy for the next ten years is to focus on the Internet industry in China, first, the Internet is very mature in Europe and the United States, but in China it can only be regarded as a development period, and most of the Internet entrepreneurs in China during this period are short of funds.

And investing in these Internet companies before they have bloomed their value is the most impressive rate of return.
Naturally, SK Group is most concerned about Internet companies like QQ that have initially monopolized the instant messaging software industry, and C.Baidu and Sosou are also the targets of SK Group's attention.
In fact, what Ye Qiu didn't know was that SK Group had already made preliminary contacts about the second round of financing for C.Baidu.
At present, C&D's search engine market in China, although it still occupies a certain advantage compared to Soso, but since Sosou launched Sosou Snapshot, C&B has fallen into a dilemma, and after thinking about it, C&B decided to start a second round of financing plan.
It's just that venture capital companies are not fools, nor philanthropists, the current pattern of Huaguo search engines, they are naturally very clear, although Sosou is still a little inferior to Qianbaidu in terms of market share, but Sosou is catching up, first of all, in the field of music search, Qianbaidu has completely lost to Soso, and secondly, Sosou's big money in Sosou snapshots, also caught Qianbaidu off guard, so naturally he wants to take advantage of the fire to rob and desperately lower the valuation of Qianbaidu.
SK Group is also one of them.
In Ji Yan's view, C&B still has investment value, but in fact, what C&B lacks at present is just funds.
As for searching, it is naturally also a choice for Ji Yan or SK Group.
At this time, An Jianguo, the helmsman and founder of Tianan Group, came to the stage to deliver a speech, which was nothing more than to say some words of thanks.
"Honey, can I dance with my father?" An Xin said with a pitiful look of inquiry.
Ye Qiu glared at An Xin angrily: "Can I still eat my future father-in-law's vinegar?" It seems that someone still wants to be punished." ”
"Hehe, okay, I'm not joking with you, I'm going to find my father, there are a lot of beauties here, Master Ye, you can find a few to dance with, don't worry, I won't be jealous." After An Xin finished speaking, she walked away with a smile.
Ji Yan watched An Xin and Ye Qiu flirting on the side, and the anger in his heart rose again, and the cold glint flashed in his eyes, but he quickly regained his smile.
"Mr. Ye, this is my business card, if Mr. Ye changes his mind, you can contact me at any time. Ji Yan smiled and took out a delicate business card and handed it to Ye Qiudao.
Ji Yan's performance is really impeccable, but Ye Qiu still can't have a good impression of each other, and sometimes it feels very wonderful between people.
On the night of the end of the Tianan Group's cocktail party celebration, Ye Qiu enjoyed all the sexual blessings, and the two were tired of being together for a whole day, and they never left the hotel.
It wasn't until Wang Shidong made a phone call that the two reluctantly left.
When Ctrip.com was first established, there were naturally a lot of things, and in the past few days, An Xin has almost done the job of throwing off her hands, and she still needs to go back to deal with the accumulated work.
And Wang Shidong came with a news that there was a major equity change in Qianbaidu, and the specific situation has not yet been announced, so Wang Shidong is not very clear, but according to the news he got, Qianbaidu's equity change this time is not just as simple as financing.
Although the news has not yet been announced, as the most direct competitor of C&B, Wang Shidong has naturally kept an eye on C&D.
In fact, Ye Qiu has always been vigilant against Qianbaidu, search engines are different from instant messaging software, and the stickiness is not so high.
The launch of the post bar has not attracted much attention, however, this is exactly what Ye Qiu wants, although the current post bar has attracted many users, but in fact, it has not really broken out.
No matter what the product is, it doesn't mean that he is really good, marketing methods are sometimes indispensable, such as sticking to the bar, for now, many people have not found its true value, including Wang Shidong.
There are many reasons, and the main reason is that Tieba is still very low-key and has not been fully promoted.
Just like music websites, Tieba also needs a catalyst.
However, Ye Qiu was not in a hurry to come up with this catalyst to catalyze the sticker, because, now is not the time, because the current accumulation of the sticker is not enough, and it is too early for people to discover the value of the sticker, especially Qianbaidu, they can easily imitate one.
Therefore, Ye Qiu was waiting, waiting for a fatal blow to Qianbaidu before releasing this tiger.
It's just that even Ye Qiu didn't expect that this equity change of Qianbaidu would greatly surprise him.
Originally, Ye Qiu thought that it would be impossible for Li Hualong to give up his controlling stake in C.Baidu, at most he would carry out a second round of financing, but he didn't expect that this time, Li Hualong would have such great courage.
What surprised Ye Qiu even more was that SK Group actually controlled C.Baidu. This means that Li Hualong has lost complete control of C&B.
However, when Qianbaidu announced two major news, Ye Qiu finally understood why Li Hualong had so much courage.
First of all, the first major news announced by Qianbaidu was expected, that is, to spend 100 million Chinese dollars to launch a snapshot of Qianbaidu, which is the proper meaning of the title, after all, if it weren't for the fact that Sosou launched Sou Snapshot, so that Qianbaidu's users have been lost again and again, I am afraid that Li Hualong would not be so anxious to carry out the second round of financing.
The launch of C&B Snapshot stopped the loss of C&B's users at once.
And the second major news can be regarded as a real big deal, so big that even Ye Qiu didn't expect it.
SK Group did not acquire C.Baidu through financing, but first acquired 123 Network Co., Ltd. with a huge amount of US$70 million equivalent to 600 million Chinese dollars.
Then it merged with 123 Company and C.Baidu, and successfully controlled C.Baidu.
The Internet company with the most users in China is not QQ, nor Qianbaidu, nor Soso, but 123 Company.
Moreover, 123 Company is also the first Internet company in China to announce profits.
The merger of 123 companies into C&B has brought a huge user base to C&B, which has opened up a gap between C&B and Sosou all of a sudden.
After the news was announced, countless media began to be optimistic about Qianbaidu, and at the same time looked at the decline and decline.
Some people even joked that Ye Qiu, the creative master who had not tasted defeat, was finally broken by C&B, because, if the previous search could still bring pressure to C&D, then now, after C&D's acquisition of 123 Company, Sou and C&B will return to the original pattern. (To be continued.) )
