Zhao Zejun said this, but Sun Hong couldn't touch his mind. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Mr. Zhao, don't be kidding, okay?"
"Why are you kidding? I'm willing to sell it, but you won't do it?" Zhao Zejun said with a grin.
"Really?"
"Really. ”
"That's good, you're happy and I'm happy, five million don't say, my scope of authority can float by 20%, directly add to the top for you, 6 million, a one-time payment. How about signing the contract today, and the money will arrive after signing the contract?" Sun Hong stood up directly and asked.
"Senior brother, you're just too anxious, sit first and sit first. Zhao Zejun pressed his hand and motioned for him to sit down first.
"Huh?" Sun Hong was a little stunned, standing there confused, and slowly sat down again with the handle of the seat, looking at Zhao Zejun strangely.
"You see, Baidu's strength is so strong, senior brother, you are a middle-level cadre, more sharp than many company CEOs I have seen, before coming, even a small lecture I gave in the university a few days ago was investigated clearly, it can be seen that Baidu has a background, financial resources and talents, how can I resist Baidu, so, sell, I want to sell. ”
Sun Hong understood and glared: "But the price is not this price, right?"
"Yes, yes, this chat, the rhythm is right!" Zhao Zejun smiled and acquiesced.
"Then how much do you want?" Sun Hong said.
Zhao Zejun thought for a while, stretched out a finger, and shook it.
Sun Hong frowned: "Ten million?"
Zhao Zejun shook his head.
"100 million?" After Sun Hong finished speaking, he waved his hand vigorously, as if driving away a fly in front of him, "Impossible, are you crazy? You can't sell the whole Zeyue package for 100 million. If that's the case, then there's no need to talk about it. ”
Zhao Zejun continued to laugh without saying a word, but still shook his head.
"If you dare to say one billion, junior brother, then we can't even be friends. I'll turn around and leave immediately, you're insulting me!" Sun Hong's face sank.
Zhao Zejun finally spoke.
"Ten million...... USD. ”
"That's close to 90 million yuan, impossible. ”
"Senior brother, why don't you ask for instructions from the headquarters?" Zhao Zejun said unhurriedly: "As far as I know, although Baidu currently has the upper hand over Google, Google doesn't seem to want to give up the mainland market. ”
"What do you mean?"
Zhao Zejun continued: "You just talked about strength, the current Google and Baidu, the hard power in the mainland should be comparable, the main business of both is search engine projects, evenly matched, if you want to completely defeat Google, I am afraid it will be a long-term tug-of-war, a bloody war, right? How long will it take to compete? Three years, five years, or ten years? How much money, manpower, and material resources will be invested?"
Zhao Zejun knew that in a few years, Google would completely withdraw from the mainland market due to policy reasons, but Sun Hong didn't know, and Baidu's Mr. Li didn't know that although Google was at a disadvantage, it was indeed Baidu's only imaginary enemy in strategy.
Judging from Google's background strength, it may be Baidu's biggest opponent in the next few decades, and it may even fight a turnaround battle at any time.
Sun Hong frowned and said, "You don't think that relying on a post bar can affect the competition results between Baidu and Google?"
"It's not enough to just rely on Tieba, but with Tieba, Baidu can use this as a starting point to make efforts to web2.0, explore new business models, and become the first batch of pioneers of web2.0 models in the country and even the world, ahead of Google. Zhao Zejun said lightly.
"What does web2.0 mean?" Sun Hong asked with a frown.
The concept of web2.0 has always been considered to be the first proposed by the Americans in 04, but Zhao Zejun remembers that in fact, when Baidu Tieba was launched in 03, Baidu had already launched the concept of 2.0. It's just that the world's Internet technology has always been the leader of the Western world, and the words of the mainlanders do not have much power, so the reputation of the founder of 2.0 has been spent.
"Senior brother, let's ask your headquarters, preferably at the level of CEO or CTO. You don't know about Web 2.0, maybe they do?"
After speaking, he stood up, stretched out his hand to Sun Hong, changed his title and said, "Mr. Sun, I still have some things, let's talk about it here first?"
"Good. Sun Hong was also decisive, seeing that there would be no more progress today, he stood up and shook hands and said goodbye.
Although he didn't talk about the results, Sun Hong felt that he had gained a lot today, especially his understanding of Zhao Zejun.
After returning to the hotel, Sun Hong immediately reported to the head office.
"Mr. Liu, this Zhao Zejun is too difficult to do, I have come into contact with so many entrepreneurs, and it is the first time I have encountered this kind of person who understands business, technology, and negotiation. When I faced him at that time, I actually thought of the scene when I first came into contact with our President Li. On the phone, Sun Hong said to Mr. Liu, CTO of Baidu.
"Don't forget, our Mr. Li returned to China to start a business, he is 30 years old, and he has worked hard in Silicon Valley for many years, and this Zhao Zejun is only 20 years old this year. If you don't talk about that, what exactly did you come up with?"
Sun Hong gave a general report on the key points of today's talks.
"Web2.0?How does he know this concept?" Mr. Liu asked in surprise: "Did he study abroad?"
"As far as I know, I have investigated his information, from childhood to adulthood, he is basically in southern Jiangsu Province, strictly speaking, in Yijiang City. Well, but after coming to Jianwu University of Science and Technology, I often go to lectures, and there are many experts who go to the University of Science and Technology to give lectures, and there are many foreigners, who may have heard from the lectures. ”
Sun Hong paused and continued: "I personally think that his last sentence is very reasonable, we compete with Google, and it is not enough to rely on continuous upgrading and optimization of the search engine business, it is indeed necessary to open up new fields." ”
"Okay, you wait, I'll go find Mr. Li. ”
In the evening, Sun Hong's mobile phone rang again, and Mr. Liu called back.
……
Zhao Zejun and Sun Hong were arguing in the conference room, hiding knives in their smiles, but after negotiation, Zeyue still did his best to be a landlord, and entertained Sun Hong very warmly, and invited Sun Hong to a five-star hotel in Jianwu City, and brought Li Mingran to accompany him.
During the dinner, the topic talked about web2.0 again, and Li Mingran said: "Oh yes, the alumni who came back from Silicon Valley last time, when it comes to user experience, that's what it means, but I didn't directly say the term web2.0, Mr. Zhao, your summary is very incisive." ”
"Still inspired by you, teacher. Zhao Zejun said with a smile: "Professor Li, Web 2.0 has just started, and there are many points that can be mined and studied, which is a very worthy research topic." ”
"We work together. ”
At the end of the banquet, on the way back to the hotel, Sun Hong mentioned the acquisition again.
Baidu headquarters gave a reserve price, 10 million yuan.
"Senior brother, you think about it. The price has reached its peak, and even I didn't expect it. It is true that Baidu is a big enterprise, but it is not so easy to come up with 10 million funds at one time. ”
Sun Hong said in his heart, "In addition, our Mr. Li personally instructed that if you are willing, Baidu welcomes you to join." ”
Zhao Zejun usually doesn't drink, but today he drank more than two taels with Sun Hong, and said a little drunk: "Oh, I'll go to Baidu, what kind of treatment? Is there any share?"
"Well, the treatment must be good, as for the shares, hehe, junior brother, I think it's better for us to be realistic, right." Sun Hong patted Zhao Zejun on the shoulder and smiled.
"What's the point of not having shares, not going, not going. Zhao Zejun waved his hand.
