Chapter 531: The Tang Dynasty Group's Contest with the European Union
"Looks good."
As soon as Steve analyzed, Bill began to smile.
"Tang Dynasty Company."
The popularity of Renren Farm has completely eliminated the influence of Microsoft Second Life. Whether it is the media or market users, they only care about Renren.com, and not many people have entered the second life that has just entered this market. It seems that in this battle, Renren not only guaranteed its own market, but also took a step forward in its own market.
"At present, in the world community market, Renren accounts for about 8 corners of the market, Second Life occupies about 2nd Life market, and Facebook has a good ......."
Secretary Liu Zhiming took a piece of information and reported to Chen Jiayi.
"Second life, habit."
Chen Jiayi muttered to herself, "Why is there so much in the second life?" ”
10% may not seem like much, but the global market base is too large, even 10% is a terrifying figure. Just like the YY of later generations, even if this YY does not occupy a good market. But due to the number of people on the Internet in China, he also has tens of millions of online users.
10% of the market in the second life is not to be watched by Chen Jiayi.
"Before Second Life even began, it had already acquired a user by tying up the surname. Subsequently, relying on the MSN instant messaging platform, his market share has also gradually increased. So, that's what you have, your market share. ”
"That's it."
Damn it.
At this time, a world-class instant messaging embodies his super power. This is also why, before that, Chen Jiayi's first rebirth was to create an instant messaging. For now, Microsoft has made good use of its own MSN communication to tie Second Life together. Even if they don't have many features in their second life, they still have a lot of people using MSN. Under inertia, many players have also entered the social platform of "Second Life".
"It is! dangers. ”
Users can become a ticking time bomb at any time.
If it is when, "Second Life" has a flash of inspiration and launches a very good creative six-person network ......" is probably not able to withstand it. After all, all the communication activities of the community website are built on "innovative" social services.
If Renren is one step slower, it will be driven by "Second Life".
In order to maintain the supremacy of Renren, the most important way is to always launch various good services.
"After Renren Farm, we need to innovate again and strive to develop more community entertainment games."
Renren Farm, he's just a community game.
However, Everybody Farm has a lifespan just like the traditional game. No matter how classic the game is, when people get tired of playing it, then this game will lose its original excitement. Therefore, "Renren" must develop some other games to replace "Renren Farm" before it declines.
Thinking of this, Chen Jiayi was cheerful. Perhaps, Second Life can only be surprised if it wants to continue to compete for the community market. After all, a good social game is an incomparably large attraction for users. Now, they have seen the power of the game of "stealing vegetables", and I believe that they will work in this direction.
"Okay."
Liu Zhiming gave Chen Jiayi's instructions, and then raised his head again, "There is one more thing that we still need to solve." ”
"What's the matter?"
"There is something about the suspected monopoly of our Tang Dynasty company."
"Oh, that's it."
Tang Dynasty Company was suspected of monopoly, although it was diverted by the Microsoft monopoly case. However, the EU will not revoke your monopoly case just because others are not watching you. In other words, Tang Dynasty still has to face an appeal in the monopoly case. Although, only after the Tang Dynasty company, Microsoft is also in this line of practice.
But Chen Jiayi knew that maybe, Microsoft's degree of indifference was much higher than that of Tang Dynasty Company. After all, Microsoft's reputation has not been great. Even, Bill knows. However, Microsoft does not eat by fame, he eats by monopoly. Of course, Chen Jiayi has nothing to say about this. No matter what method you use, if you can expand the market and make too much money, that is a good way, there is no need to learn from "Apple", and give up a lot of markets for the sake of a good reputation. ,
In addition, Microsoft basically receives monopoly complaints from all over the world every year. This time again, for them, is very commonplace. Even, these monopoly cases have become one of Microsoft's daily businesses. Because, Microsoft has hired a large number of people, and it is dealing with these monopoly cases every day.
"When will this monopoly case be tried for the first time?"
"A week later."
"OK, I'll give you full authority to handle the case."
"Me?"
Liu Zhiming never thought that Chen Jiayi would send himself to appear in court.
You must know that if you appear in court, then, for this lawsuit, Liu Zhiming will undoubtedly represent Tang Dynasty Company. Even if Liu Zhiming is now a secretary, after this lawsuit, his position will rise to a very high level. Perhaps, the media will also speculate whether Chen Jiayi's other reuse person is this Liu Zhiming.
"Why, don't dare to ......"
Chen Jiayi looked at Liu Zhiming.
His image of Liu Zhiming is very good, and in the past few years, Liu Zhiming's comprehensive quality is also good. However, all along, Chen Jiayi has always let him stay by his side and has never been released. On the one hand, Chen Jiayi wanted to observe Liu Zhiming again, and on the other hand, Chen Jiayi also wanted to cultivate Liu Zhiming's patience. I'm just afraid that I won't be able to cope well and I will disappoint Mr. Chen's hopes. ”
"Hehe, this case is big, he is very big. However, it is very small to say that it is very small, it depends on how you understand it. ”
Chen Jia had already made up his mind about this case, so he didn't take it to heart at all. Even, in this case, he can send whoever he sends, and the update is the fastest...... He was really ready to lose the case. He's not necessarily going to lose the lawsuit. Of course, if you take 10,000 steps back, there is nothing terrible about selling complaints. Even if you lose the lawsuit, you must also make good use of the value of losing the lawsuit.
"Well, I understand."
Hearing Chen Jiayi's explanation, with Liu Zhiming's experience of following Chen Jiayi, Liu Zhiming seemed to understand something.
"Oh, understand what?"
"Actually, Mr. Chen has already made a plan, hasn't he?"
"Yes, why don't I know, so tell me, what plan I have set?"
Seeing Liu Zhiming wake up, Chen Jia was interested.
He knew that ordinary people were depressed when they heard about this monopoly case. Even if it is Zhang Zixian, this Tang Dynasty company. When he learned that the EU had sued the Tang Dynasty Group, he also had a headache. In fact, for anyone, including Bill, who was threatened with a monopoly case for the first time, he didn't know what to do. Zhang Zixian didn't lie, he just felt a headache and trouble, which was already a great performance. But I didn't expect that this Liu Zhiming, he seemed to see it more thoroughly.
"Drag."
The word "drag" says a thing.
"What a drag."
Chen Jiayi smiled, "Okay, this time, you will go to the International Court of Justice in The Hague and drag them out." ”
In this world, if you follow the rules, then you can find many solutions. Even if it is the law, we can use the rules of the law to carry out an operation that is beneficial to us. From the international investigation incident, we can see that as long as the case involves the state and the state, his case will drag on for a very long time. Not to mention, in this Internet where there is not much legal protection, the time he drags on is even more difficult to estimate.
After that, Liu Zhiming officially represented Tang Dynasty Group before the International Court of Justice in The Hague.
"Tang Dynasty Group is suspected of monopoly case, the first court is held."
Regarding the case of the monopoly of the Tang Dynasty Group, which has been discussed before, the media has long paid attention to it.
It's just that when they saw that the Tang Dynasty group sent a small secretary, they were all surprised.
"Liu Zhiming, who?"
In the Tang Dynasty Group, they have only heard of Gu Xiaoyu, Zhao Danyang, Zhang Zixian, and Liu Sigui...... When will there be this Liu Zhiming. They thought that even if Chen Jiayi didn't go to the monopoly case this time, Zhang Zixian should also go. After all, there is a monopoly case involving the entire group of companies, and that is a big deal. If you lose the case, the consequences are unimaginable.
For this reason, many media have shown a lot of explanations for Liu Zhiming, who was sent out by Tang Dynasty Company.
In cooperation with the Tang Dynasty company. NN said, "Judging from the phalanx sent by the Tang Dynasty company, perhaps, we can guess." The Tang Dynasty Group did not pay attention to this monopoly case. ”,
Yahoo's official website also expressed strong support for this view.
They believe that "this may be a kind of Yuansheng protest by the Tang Dynasty Group against the EU, because so far, netizens who believe that Tang Dynasty Company does not have a monopoly have been as high as a dazzle according to the voting data in Renren." ", the fastest update.
This data, of course, is confusing to others.
Because, if you are careful, they will know that Renren.com, T ......" He also belongs to the Tang Dynasty group.
However, although more media support the Tang Dynasty Group, it is an Internet media. However, regarding the case of the European Union's accusation against the Tang Dynasty Group, most of the media have expressed considerable concern about the Tang Dynasty Group. Although, theoretically speaking, with the current laws and regulations around the world, it is difficult to determine the monopoly of Tang Dynasty companies. However, the EU is not a country, it is dozens of countries in Europe. Moreover, this time the EU accused the Tang Dynasty bloc, and even the United States secretly supported it.
In addition, the International Court of Justice in The Hague, although it is a United Nations court, is also based in Finland, Europe. Even the United Nations, led by the United States and the European Union. Basically, the direction of the whole world is dominated by these two parties. Although China is one of the five permanent members of the UN Security Council, it is a pity that it has nothing to do but oppose it and does not have much right to speak.
Speaking of which, this does not seem to be a monopoly case, but a political game.
This is only the opinion of the outside world, and while they are talking, the International Court of Justice in The Hague has opened the case for the first time. As the defendant, "Liu Zhiming" sat under the "defendant" on behalf of the Tang Dynasty Group. Behind is the lawyer team of Tang Dynasty Group. And as a plaintiff, it is naturally the European Union.
"Regarding the case of Tang Dynasty Group's suspected Internet monopoly, the trial is now officially opened, and the plaintiff is invited to make a statement of accusation."
"The Tang Dynasty Group used the world's giant Internet, including Renren, Baidu search engine, and Tang Dynasty instant messaging, to forcibly promote their online electronic products, causing the global electronics industry to be depressed. In our opinion, the Tang Dynasty Group is suspected of monopolizing ......"
"Defendant, what do you think about this?
"We believe that Tang Dynasty Group has always complied with the Internet market and does not have any monopolistic behavior."
"Then, below, the plaintiff EU will upload the account to sue Tang Tang Group for allegedly monopolizing the position."
Subsequently, the EU came up with countless dense documents.
"The sixth piece of evidence is that the defendant used the global Internet to maliciously promote the online game products of Tang Dynasty Network. As a result, the game industry in various European countries went bankrupt. The data shows that taking "Renren" as an example, "Renren" is the World of Warcraft under the Tang Dynasty Network, and it has taken out the front-page headline advertising position of Jintian. In addition, the Tang Dynasty Wushu News popped up four times for World of Warcraft. The worst performance is the Tang Dynasty video and audio player, and the advertisements of World of Warcraft have been hanging in it for many years......"
………””
"We completely disagree with the EU side, and in fact, the Tang Dynasty group does do a lot of propaganda for the Tang Dynasty network. However, we believe that this is a normal advertising tactic. Moreover, in the propaganda of the Tang Dynasty network, European and American countries do not have online game products. Since there are not many online game products, then, we will update the fastest. There is no monopoly on the online game industry in Europe and the United States. As for the recession of European and American game companies, we Tang Dynasty Group believe that it is an inevitable behavior of the click-based game market. In addition, the Internet media under our Tang Dynasty Group is not specifically for Tang Dynasty online advertising. In addition to our Tang Dynasty network, for example, companies such as EA, Blizzard, Xueleshan, etc., we also provide them with a lot of advertising support. Your Excellency will be able to observe these cooperation documents. ”
This monopoly is not the same as Microsoft's monopoly.
Microsoft's monopoly is to strongly promote other products in their operating system, such as promoting IE, promoting players, promoting MSN, etc. But Tang Dynasty Group, he is an Internet company. Moreover, he is an Internet company, and he does not serve a single organization. Although they advertise more of their products, they also accept advertising services from other companies...... "From this evidence, it does not mean that Tang Dynasty Group is suspected of monopoly."
This is just the first battle.
"Plaintiff EU, what other evidence do you have?" ,
This time, the Hague International Justice is none other than Shi Jiuyong.
Although Shi Jiu's widow is a Chinese, he should not have participated in this case. However, most of the people at the International Court of Justice in The Hague are European and American officials. If that were the case, neither Europeans would be allowed to attend this conference. In the end, the "widow Shi Jiu" of the president of the International Court of Justice in The Hague stood up to the public and served as the presiding judge of this monopoly case.
The plaintiff, Tang Dynasty Group, used its giant Internet media to cooperate with Yahoo to break into the global search engine market ...... "......"
Once again, the EU spoke of search engines.
"Our cooperation with Yahoo is a normal cooperation. The competition for the market is also fair competition. The fundamental reason why we and Yahoo can get so many markets is that we meet the needs of global netizens with our search engine rules. In addition, we have spent a huge amount of money on promotion. On the other hand, the major search engine companies in Europe have not made much effort in promotion. We don't think that this is our monopoly? And, we would like to ask the plaintiffs, are you suing Tang Dynasty Group, or are you suing Tang Dynasty Group and Yahoo? ”
If you want to sue Yahoo, it's not suing the United States.
Naturally, the EU did not add Yahoo to the list, and if it did, it would have to complicate the case even more.
"Plaintiff ......"
“……”
Subsequently, the EU sought numerous Internet evidence, all of which were refuted by Tang Dynasty.
2 hours passed. The Hague International Justice, "Shi Jiu's widow", said again, "May I ask the plaintiff, is there any other evidence that can prove that the Tang Dynasty Group is suspected of monopoly." ”
Although this evidence seems to show that Tang Zai Group has the possibility of monopoly, this is not sufficient. Moreover, after several rounds of competition, they were obviously counterattacked by the Tang Dynasty Company. In addition, Internet law is now the weakest in the world and is updated the fastest. item, they basically have nothing to follow. In other words, if the law does not stipulate what the crime is for murder, then, if he kills someone, he may not be guilty.
Yes, the law is sometimes more speechless than human morality.
However, the law is the law, and all of them have to speak of evidence, and all of them have to follow the law.
If there is no evidence, if there is no legal code, this lawsuit is basically nothing to fight.
When Shi Jiuqian asked EU officials again, EU officials knew that if they still could not provide more evidence, then this monopoly case would be over. Still, how could they let it go lightly. It was not easy to pull the Tang Dynasty group into the water, and if he was allowed to leave easily, they would not be the European Union. As a result, EU officials immediately replied after Shi Jiuyi's words, "Since the Internet is an emerging market, their tools for committing crimes are also unconventional tools." The evidence is difficult to collect, it takes a long time, and other evidence is still being prepared, so we ask for an adjournment ...... "......"
"Objection, in the absence of proper evidence for the plaintiff, we hope that the International Court of Justice in The Hague will pronounce the judgment in court in accordance with international law."
With such a good opportunity, it is obvious that it is impossible for the Tang Dynasty group to press the hat of monopoly. However, the Tang Dynasty clique's opposition did not work, and Shi Jiuyun was a little embarrassed, and after discussing with the left and right juries, he finally announced, "Agree to adjourn." Moreover, the International Court of Justice in The Hague has given six months in the hope that the EU will be ready for evidence.
At this point, the first trial of the Tang Dynasty group monopoly case came to an end.
Judging by the current situation, although it cannot be said that the "Tang Dynasty group" won completely, in the case of insufficient evidence. The media also said that even if the EU is given another six months, they will not find the corresponding evidence. After all, the Internet itself is an emerging industry. And when the Tang Dynasty Group entered it, he did not grab anyone's market, he was only in continuous development.
If we look at it from this description, there is no reason for the Tang Dynasty group to be suspected of monopoly. PS: I said a good news before, and now it is announced two days in advance, at 2 o'clock on February 11, the book "Big Seal".
