Chapter 376: Splitting the "Yahoo" and "Google" alliances

"Global market?"

Robin Li was a little stunned.

To be honest, Robin Li didn't think about the global market. It's just that since he founded Baidu, the domestic market competition has been so fierce, at least within ten years, when Baidu is not stable, it is impossible for him to consider the global market. Now, when asked by Chen Jiayi, he didn't know how to respond.

"What, don't want to?"

It looks like it's true.

In later generations, Baidu has been dominating the country, but it doesn't want to expand much. However, after thinking about it again, Chen Jiayi felt wrong, it should be said that he had actually moved. In 2007, Baidu expanded into the Japanese market and has already invested in it. However, until 2011, the overseas market did not expand much, but lost nearly 700 million yuan.

In addition, Google has unified the world in later generations, and even if Baidu has a solid foundation, it is also difficult to open up overseas markets. As a result, Baidu will focus on domestic, and for foreign countries, it is to lay out the game. Let's see if there is a chance, if there is a chance, if there is a chance, if there is no chance, I will lose some money, this money, for the future generations of Baidu, can still bear.

"This, it's not that Baidu doesn't want to. It's just that Baidu's foundation is not yet stable, and it ...... to venture into the international market."

Although Baidu is now gaining momentum, it may not be able to dominate the domestic search field. After all, like Yahoo and Google, they are extremely powerful companies in the world. If the foundation is not stable, how can we seek the world.

"I see."

Chen Jia nodded and approved of Robin Li's plan.

In fact, if Baidu wants to seek the global market, it really has to consolidate its position. Otherwise, Baidu, which has no funds, will be put into the international market, and if it is not careful, it will immediately collapse. This is also the reason why Robin Li has not dared to enter overseas markets, but now it is different, because Baidu has cooperated with Tang Dynasty.

Moreover, the Baidu search engine is very popular, and it has a fight with Google search.

The difference lies in the different charging models of the two search engines. Baidu uses PPC, and Google uses website alliances. Moreover, Baidu is very sick after bidding rankings, and a lot of accusations against Baidu in later generations say that they recommend some spam websites every day to deceive consumers. Google uses website alliances, which reduce a lot of hassle and is known as the healthiest search engine in the world.

Therefore, with a highly liberalized international Internet market, it is really difficult for Baidu, a bully to build a machine, to fight with Google. However, now it is different, this fee plan is all alive and can be changed, the key depends on how it works.

"What if Tang Dynasty fully supports it?"

At this time, Chen Jiayi said directly.

Although Tang Dynasty Company does not do a search market, and in the global market, it does not do any portals. However, his Internet market has spread all over the world. Whether it is the Tang Dynasty video and audio, or the battle platform, what is even more powerful is the current Renren.com, a community-based network platform that can promote almost any Internet product.

Coupled with the extremely awesome Baidu search engine technology, it is not impossible to win against Google.

"I want to think about ......"

Robin Li has always thought that Tang Dynasty's acquisition of Baidu was just a fancy to Baidu's growth, but in fact, he did not want to enter the search field. Unexpectedly, how could Tang Dynasty Company not want to enter, and his ambitions were much greater than his own. At most, the current plan is only to gain a firm foothold in the country, but the Tang Dynasty company wants to enter the global market in a leap.

Thinking about it carefully, Tang Dynasty Company really has this strength.

After all, Tang Dynasty Company has strong financial support and a perfect world network. For example, as long as you add the Baidu search engine to Renren, then, with the user's habits, after a few years, you may be able to beat Google. After all, Google is now strong, but it does not have a monopoly on the global market. …,

With such a big advantage, it stands to reason that Robin Li should agree.

However, there is one more thing that Robin Li has been considering. That is, if it cooperates with Tang Dynasty Company again this time, I am afraid that Baidu will really become a subsidiary of Tang Dynasty Company. Because, it is impossible for Tang Dynasty Company not to add the use of Baidu search engine to Renren for profit.

Because, although Tang Dynasty Company has a stake in Baidu 30, the two companies are still completely different companies until now. In the domestic market, Tang Dynasty Company can help Baidu, but in the international market, this large piece cannot be given away in vain. Unless, Baidu becomes a subsidiary of the Tang Dynasty, then "Renren" will promote Baidu in an all-round way at all costs.

The change in shares once again tightened Robin Li's nerves.

Although he returned from the United States, he was accustomed to all kinds of financing in the commercial world. Moreover, he is also a civilized person and does not want to monopolize all the shares of the company alone. However, if the control of the company is also handed over. Then, even if Baidu is still Baidu, I'm afraid it can't be controlled by itself.

Just like Sina's "Wang Zhidong", Sina, which he founded single-handedly, was finally forced out of the company by the board of directors. Like Apple, Jobs was also kicked out of Apple by the board of directors back then, which was the result of too much dispersion of shares. Although, with his personal prestige, Jobs returned to Apple a few years later. However, who can stand this kind of taste. Moreover, not everyone can have such a high honor like Jobs.

Now, the Tang Dynasty company is coming strongly. Although, Robin Li knows that taking advantage of the Tang Dynasty Company will definitely make Baidu grow by leaps and bounds. But the price of losing shares is too big, and Robin Li can't agree to it for a while.

Seeing that Robin Li didn't reply, Chen Jia thought about it, but understood.

It is estimated that he thinks of shares, which is also the idea that if others want to fight the shares of Tang Dynasty Company, Chen Jiayi definitely wants him to look good. However, in the business world, you can't do anything by yourself. You must know that now a large number of Fortune 500 companies in the world have poured into countless consortia, and then look at the founder back then, who has disappeared without a trace.

So you have examples, that's everywhere.

Take China as an example, the later generations of Tencent, Shanda, Sina, Renren...... A whole bunch of them have poured into countless consortia. Now that he mentioned that he will promote Baidu to the world, although it can bring Baidu to a higher level, it is estimated that Baidu's shares will begin to concentrate in the direction of Tang Dynasty Company from now on.

Chen Jiayi felt that it was difficult to do, thought about it, and finally came up with a compromise solution.

"Mr. Li, Baidu was created by you, and I can understand your feelings. However, for the company to grow, this is a thing that must be experienced. It's better than this...... No matter how Baidu develops in the future, and no matter how much money Baidu has raised in the future, your total shares can always be retained at 20, and Tang Dynasty will not interfere in the specific operation of the company. ”

Retaining a stake in Baidu 20 to Robin Li is also a sign of respect for the founder.

Chen Jiayi believes that after Li Yanhong thinks about it, he will agree. If Baidu doesn't agree, Robin Li knows what Tang Dynasty will do next, and he can also support another search company to occupy the world market. Moreover, in fact, Robin Li, he is actually the same as Chen Jiayi for the global market.

"In three days, I'll give you an answer."

Robin Li thought about it and gave Chen Jiayi this answer.

"Okay."

Hanging up the phone, Chen Jia contacted Zhang Zixian at first.

"Zixian, with IDG, De Fengjie...... Wait for a few venture capital institutions to contact and buy back Baidu shares at a high price. Although Baidu rarely raises funds, Robin Li, who has just started a business, where did he get the funds. So, the IDG at that time, De Fung Jie...... and some other international venture capital companies, which have successively raised funds for Baidu. Although the shares obtained are relatively small, Chen Jiayi does not want these shares to fall into the hands of their foreigners, and now when Baidu has not soared into the sky, it can be taken back at a high price, which can be regarded as a way to remove future troubles.

"Okay, I'll get in touch as soon as possible."

"No, it's not up to us to contact foreign fund companies to come forward."

The Tang Dynasty Quantum Fund controls a large number of overseas secret fund companies. These companies may not look good, but once they come together, they can't afford to burst out of power, even some small countries. Now, it is the best policy for these small fund companies to come forward.

"OK, I understand."

Chen Jiayi means that he doesn't want to attract the attention of IDG and "Defengjie", two venture capital companies. If they knew that the Tang Dynasty Company intended to recycle Baidu's chips, I am afraid that they would not want to sell them. Even if it can be recovered in the end, it will cost a sky-high price. Now through other fund companies, as long as you buy at a slightly higher price, you can do it.

Half an hour later, Chen Jiayi was discussing some ideas on economics with a few people in the dormitory. Soros from the United States, a phone call, "This is Chen Jiayi, my friend, I haven't been in touch with him." ”

"Yes, if it weren't for some actions by your CEO today, I wouldn't have bothered you."

"Oh, no, no, a master like you often comes to annoy when you have time."

"Okay, it's forbidden, why are you planning to recycle Baidu shares?"

"This ......"

Chen Jia thought about it for a while, and didn't hide it, and they would know in a few days, so he said, "Next, I will make some moves on Baidu." Therefore, the scattered Baidu shares naturally have to be recovered. ”

"Oh, do you want to take Baidu global?"

At this time, Soros was on the phone, and he was suddenly surprised.

"Not bad."

Chen Jia nodded, and sure enough, he was worthy of the old rivers and lakes, and with this action, he could guess the strategy of the Tang Dynasty's official affairs. However, what was this guy surprised to do, Chen Jiayi was very strange, so he asked, "What, is this surprised?" ”

"No, actually, I should have thought of it."

The conversation paused before he said, "Chen, you know, I've been eyeing Google's stock lately?" It's just that I received news from you today, and I suddenly found out that Google's stock is not investable. ”

Since its establishment, Google has shown a certain degree of fire after years of development. As another high-tech company about to go public, many fund companies have secretly made up their minds. Anyway, you have to play with a little bit of Google's original stock. What if Google is the next Yahoo again?

In fact, Google is more bullish than Yahoo in later generations, with a market value of more than 100 billion US dollars, all of which are on the same level as IBM.

But just when Soros was waiting for him, he was ready to snare some of Google's original shares, but he didn't expect that the Tang Dynasty Company would come back with a gun. I actually want to raise Baidu in a big way and enter the global search market. This move immediately stopped Soros from entering the Google original stock market. Because, he knows, the operation ability of the Tang Dynasty company is definitely the first in the world.

With this giant joining the search field, I'm afraid Google will be afraid of three points. When the time comes, invest in this original stock, incur a loss, and that's the end. After all, high-tech companies say that he has a price, and if he says he is worthless, he is worthless. Faced with the entry of a huge world Internet giant, Google search may really die.

"Haha, Mr. Soros is so confident in Tang Dynasty Company?"

"Yes, I thought so when you came to the Quantum Fund alone." ..., the current Soros can still recall the glory of Chen Jiayi when he was in the Quantum Fund. Moreover, if it weren't for Chen Jiayi, there would not be the current Tang Dynasty Quantum Fund.

……

Three days later, Robin Li finally agreed.

"I think in three or four years, if you look back, you will find that everything on the global Internet is ours."

This is Chen Jiayi's encouragement to Robin Li.

"I see a little bit of it too."

"However, there is one more thing for Mr. Li to do now."

If you want to beat Google, it's not just a random Baidu and think that the world is invincible. You know, although Google does not dominate the global search market, it has developed the spirit of a king. Once such a momentum is achieved, even if Baidu wants to enter it, it will be even more difficult. Therefore, Chen Jiayi had to make some arrangements to reduce the resistance that Baidu encountered in promoting the global market.

"What's the matter?"

"I heard that Yahoo has been using Google's search technology, and I don't know if Mr. Li has a strategy to let Yahoo and Google separate."

Google's development is inseparable from Yahoo's support.

If it weren't for Yahoo's full support for Google, Google wouldn't be where it is today. Although later in 2004, Yahoo had already felt threatened by Google. End the technical cooperation with Google and unilaterally develop your own search engine. But at that time, Yahoo had already raised Google for years, and no matter how hard Yahoo tried, it couldn't do anything.

The first step is to break up the alliance between the two .......
