Chapter 225: Welcome, Welcome, Warm Welcome

When Zhao Zejun saw Zhou Hongwei, Zhou Hongwei was holding a magazine that he didn't know where to buy it, or 'Shunlai', and in a hurry, on the page that Zhou Hongwei was flipping through, a very eye-catching title jumped into Zhao Zejun's sight.

"WeChat and QQ, the battle for instant messaging hegemony ......"

Zhao Zejun's heart moved, he had seen this article himself. There is nothing wrong with theoretical analysis, but the author's rhetorical stance is quite suspicious of fanning the flames between Tencent and Zelianke. According to the author's point of view, Tencent should now let go of the contradiction with 360 and turn its head to suppress the newly rising WeChat, at least compete with WeChat for the client.

Quite right, but also idealistic. Just like the two armies are fighting, they are fighting fiercely, both sides are already riding tigers, and they can only fight hard, and a rash retreat will only lead to the collapse of the whole front.

Although it is the first time to meet Zhao Zejun, the two parties have already met each other in various media, and they have met each other more than once, and they are not strangers. Zhou Hongwei casually handed over the magazine to the assistant and strode towards Zhao Zejun.

"Mr. Zhao, hello!"

Like many entrepreneurs who meet Zhao Zejun for the first time, Zhou Hongwei's first impression of Zhao Zejun is 'young'.

It's surprising to be young.

The average age of Internet entrepreneurs is a whole round lower than that of traditional industrial entrepreneurs, and there are not a few people who are in the prime of life, or even young people, who are in the prime of life, or even young people, who have created a legendary project, become billionaires, and create a new company.

Rao is like this, Zhao Zejun still feels a little too young.

You must know that Zelianke is not a unicorn company that relies on a certain product or an opportunity to rise. Over the years, a large number of unicorn projects have emerged under its umbrella, each of which is enough to become an industry miracle. And the Zezi system itself has been constantly tested in the treacherous shopping mall and has stood to this day.

It's a huge whole, all from the hands of this young man who has just turned 25 years old.

In the media, observing a person at a different level is a very different feeling from face-to-face direct communication.

Seeing Zhao Zejun for the first time, Zhou Hongwei's confidence before coming suddenly disappeared, and there was a faint feeling of 'bottomless'.

Before coming, Zhou Hongwei specially studied Zhao Zejun and came to a conclusion: this young man is a very standard professional businessman, and in business, his code of conduct has only one: whether it is beneficial to the enterprise.

At present, the general situation of the Internet has become obvious, between Tencent and Zelianke, not only there is no more room for cooperation, but because of the game, finance, instant messaging three blocks, there will be continuous competition, so to speak: as long as these two companies coexist for a day, competition will always exist.

Based on the judgment of these two aspects, Zhou Hongwei was full of confidence before this trip. Coupled with the size of 360 comparable to Tencent and his sincerity in coming to the door in person, Zelianke really has no reason not to stand on the same front with 360 and jointly deal with Tencent.

However, after seeing Zhao Zejun with his own eyes, Zhou Hongwei's confidence was inexplicably shaken.

The young man in front of him was by no means as simple and transparent as he imagined before, even if he was fully prepared in advance, it was still far from enough to face Zhao Zejun.

The entire Zezi system is a super group enterprise that can be compared with any Internet company in China, and his founder Zhao Zejun is not weaker than any Internet tycoon he knows. In terms of age, Zhao Zejun, who is only 26 years old, is actually more remarkable than everyone else.

Zhou Hongwei did not guess wrong this time, after meeting, Zhao Zejun showed great enthusiasm, and took them to visit the entire Zelianke and Zeye Plaza, and then at the Shangri-La Hotel next to Zeye Plaza, he chartered a whole banquet hall to entertain this group.

After a short break at noon, in the afternoon activities, Zhao Zejun even invited a group of outstanding local entrepreneurs in southern Jiangsu Province to hold a symposium with the local government and network-related authorities.

However, from beginning to end, Zhao Zejun did not take the initiative to talk about the 3Q war in a word.

After eating and drinking all day, after the dinner was over, Zhou Hongwei finally couldn't sit still.

The few 360 assistants and management who came with him were even more confused.

What does this Zhao Zejun mean? Are you really stupid, or are you pretending to be stupid, I don't know what we are here this time?

If you want to find faults, you really can't find anything wrong. Zhou Hongwei led the team to take the initiative to come to the door, 360 was full of sincerity, but the people of Zelianke also arranged a grand welcome and reception, and said that in the afternoon, the entrepreneurs who were present were worth more than one billion yuan, and the cadres above the department and bureau level could not be counted in two slaps.

Speaking of where to go, Zelianke is absolutely good at fulfilling the friendship of landlords.

But the problem is that 360 is not here to eat, drink, or travel this time!

At 8 o'clock in the evening, the secretary of the board of directors of Zelianke, who is very famous in the Internet industry, Gianna, politely sent the next day's activity plan: tomorrow at 9 o'clock in the morning, Zelianke arranged a car and entourage to accompany 360 guests to visit the most famous mountains and holy places in southern Jiangsu Province, which is 120 kilometers away from Jianwu City.

"This trip will last about two days, and if you are interested......

Zhou Hongwei couldn't help it, interrupted Gianna's follow-up arrangements, and said, "Miss Gianna, where is Mr. Zhao now, I want to talk to him." ”

"Mr. Zhao this evening, accompanied the provincial and municipal leaders to Nanping District to inspect, tomorrow morning, the provincial and municipal federations of industry and commerce have several important meetings. Gianna said.

"Then when will he be free?" Zhou Hongwei asked with a frown.

"Well, it's hard to say right now. You also know that Southern Jiangsu Province has developed greatly in recent years, and as a local entrepreneur, it is our duty to Mr. Zhao, and many times, I can't help myself......" Gianna showed an expression that you understand.

Zhou Hongwei thought to himself, I understand, I know a fart!

What kind of big construction is Jianwu City in southern Jiangsu Province, and it is not a day or two, but when I come, I will be busy in the dark?

Isn't it clear that you don't want to see it?

I don't want to see it, in fact, the meaning is obvious, I don't want to cooperate.

But there's another possibility: hanging appetites. When he had had his appetite satisfied, the lion opened his mouth.

"In this way, you tell Mr. Zhao that we won't go to travel. I'm waiting for him at the hotel, and when he's available, whether it's at night or at any time, I want to meet him in person and have a chat. Zhou Hongwei said.

After saying this, it didn't take long for Zhao Zejun to be really free.

He swims in the pool on the rooftop.

Zhou Hongwei put on his swimsuit and hurried to the roof pool, the pool had been packed, and in the huge floor, only a few bodyguard-like guys stood by the pool and at the door.

With a pop, there was a splash on the surface of the water, and a mermaid jumped into the water, like a big fish under the water, and passed a distance of more than ten meters in one breath, and raised his head on the water.

It was Zhao Zejun.

"Mr. Zhou!" Zhao Zejun seemed to have just noticed Zhou Hongwei, who was standing by the pool, swam to the shore several times, climbed ashore, and picked up a towel to dry.

"Mr. Zhao, I'm so interested. Zhou Hongwei looked at the surrounding environment and said with a smile.

"The body is the capital of the revolution. Zhao Zejun smiled: "Is Mr. Zhou satisfied with the arrangements for the next few days?"

Seeing that Zhao Zejun still didn't pick up, Zhou Hongwei decided to go straight to him, and finally caught him, if he couldn't give him a perfunctory past, maybe there would be no chance later.

"Mr. Zhao, what do you think of this 3Q battle?" Zhou Hongwei paused and asked directly: "Is Zelianke ready to seize this opportunity and enter directly?"

"Opportunity?" Zhao Zejun asked rhetorically.

"Isn't it an opportunity? If it's not an opportunity, why did Zelianke choose to launch WeChat at this time? Zhou Hongwei said: "If Zelianke had launched WeChat two months earlier, I'm afraid it would not be a 3Q war now, but a micro-Q war, right?"

Zhao Zejun thought about it and admitted with a smile: "This is true, and I don't need to hide it." WeChat this product, Zelianke has been looking for the right time to launch, this time 360 objectively helped Zelianke, restraining Tencent, so that the new WeChat can be smoothly put into the market, not to be strangled at the beginning. ”

"I won't be strangled now, but the contradiction with Tencent will break out sooner or later. Zhou Hongwei said: "The 3Q war will not continue endlessly, once it is over, Tencent will pull out its hand, and it will definitely turn its head and face up to WeChat, the biggest competitor." At that time, the scale of the war that Tencent will launch may exceed this 3Q war. ”

"QQ and WeChat are incompatible?" Zhao Zejun asked quietly.

Zhou Hongwei smiled and did not answer. The meaning revealed in the expression is obvious, Tencent's specific way to deal with WeChat is uncertain, but it will definitely regard prestige as a big problem, and the intensity is not weaker than the 3Q battle.

"Mr. Zhou came today, what advice do you have?" Zhao Zejun asked knowingly.

"360 can't completely defeat Tencent, in fact, no Internet industry can completely crush Tencent. But if the two of us join forces, we can weaken Tencent to the greatest extent in this 3Q war, and provide the most relaxed environment for WeChat's work in the future. Zhou Hongwei said.

"However, as far as I know, the authorities have already tried to mediate. Zhao Zejun said.

"Therefore, we must pay more attention to cracking down on Tencent as soon as possible before the mediation is concluded. In addition, the 3Q war will end, but the partnership of Danze Lianke's 360 will not end because of this, and after that, 360 can always give WeChat the greatest support. ”

Speaking of this, Zhou Hongwei hesitated, but still said: "Zelianke is currently in the field of security, and there is no authoritative product. ”

Zhao Zejun's face sank slightly: "Mr. Zhou, are you threatening me? If you don't cooperate, WeChat may become the next QQ doctor and be blacklisted?"

"Misunderstanding. Zhou Hongwei shook his head: "Maybe I didn't express it clearly, I just stated a fact." At present, Zelianke has no products in the field of security, WeChat is for mobile phone clients, and 360 not only has 360 butler on the computer side, but also our 360 mobile phone butler, which currently occupies the vast majority of the smartphone market. Therefore, 360 has the confidence to escort the popularization of WeChat on mobile phones and computers. ”

"On the other hand, the biggest security protection software on the mobile phone, 360 mobile phone butler, can also strangle all software products on the mobile phone?" Zhao Zejun asked lightly.

"All I can say is that it's true. Zhou Hongwei said.
