Chapter 020: The Giants' Worries
If you want to build up the size of your company, the most important thing you need is capital.
The two million that Meng Qian invested was not enough at all, at most it was to buy some office supplies, and even whether he could improve the laboratory was a problem. Screening materials, designing mass production plans, paving the way for commercialization...... All require a huge amount of money, and there are no tens of millions to play.
So he accelerated the development of the software company and intensively tested the third version of the optimization master. Its function is aimed at the strange cat butler everywhere, as long as the other party has it, they also have it. And the core technology that the other party does not have, they have to be high-profile publicity, and the comparison is immediately obvious.
The virus database and online detection and killing functions that are most needed are also solved because of the cooperation with Penguin and Shidu. The optimization master who integrates multiple resources is now the first giant to challenge aggressively, and all kinds of advertisements and promotions are also bombarded in all directions.
Meng Qian's purpose is very simple: to speculate on high value in a short period of time.
Although the law of value determines that the optimization master must be the longer the operation, the more valuable it is, no matter how hot the speculation, the value in a short period of time cannot be higher than that of careful operation for a year. But Meng Qian didn't have the patience to wait a year, and he hoped that next month Wells Fargo Energy would be operational.
His series of actions naturally attracted the attention of giants.
Liang Tao can deduce the clues through his decision-making, and the giants are not dry meals, and of course they can feel something unusual. It's just that their perspective is not as meticulous as Liang Tao's, but inferred from rich experience, there are two possibilities: careeraic or businessman.
Discussed at a meeting of the heads of the Penguin mobile software division.
"If Meng Qian is ambitious, we can rest assured that everything he does is good for the company, which can allow us to integrate resources and impact the status of Qimao faster; But if not, if he is a cunning businessman, our resources may be used as a wedding dress. ”
Manager Zhao listened to the assistant's analysis and leaned towards the latter: "Do you think that he may speculate on the value of the software by unscrupulous means, and then change hands at a high price?" ”
The assistant said: "You can refer to his previous behavior, after the financing of the venture capital company, he spent all the funds on advertising, you must know that for start-up companies, this level of completely skewed capital consumption is completely risky." ”
Manager Zhao understood: "So when the price was soaring, he accepted our financing. ”
The assistant continued: "Referring to the current 20 million funds from the outside world, he personally took most of them to set up a new company, and the small part left for the company is still all spent on publicity, and he has no patience to run the company and expand the team's performance. ”
At this point, many of the high-level executives present couldn't help but be suspicious.
According to this indication, Meng Qian will spare no effort to speculate on the price, and when he is about to run out of money, he will accept investment from the outside world again. Considering that only 55% of the shares in Meng Qian's hands are concerned, it is related to the ownership of the controlling stake, and a small-scale transfer is impossible, and it must be a large amount.
Manager Zhao frowned: "If he really plans to do this, if he plans to cooperate with Qimao, what is our response plan?" ”
"The initiative is in his hands, we can not do much, but we can drag his capital chain, for example, he likes to spend a lot of money, we will give him a strong channel, such as the top of the search list of Shidu Company, the effect is extremely powerful, but it requires huge funds."
"If he wants to speculate on the price of software, he will inevitably be tempted by this channel, but there is not enough money in the later stage, we can seize this opportunity to paralyze him technically, refinance and buy shares, dilute the shares in his hands little by little, and wait until he no longer has a controlling stake."
Manager Zhao's eyes lit up: "Good suggestion." ”
……
At the time when the optimization master was booming, the industry giant's Qimao felt a hint of threat.
They even made a bad decision: they refused to cooperate with Master Software and put their products behind the application market.
I thought it was a move that would make the other party compromise and create opportunities for itself, but in the end, it turned out to be a stupid trick - Master Software fell to its rivals!
Today's master software is no longer subject to their channels.
Another even worse news is that Penguin and Shidu plan to jointly promote optimization masters, resources are inclined to them, and issued a slogan: form a large-scale market within half a year, and hit the first. This is already Chiguoguo's slogan for war, deliberately creating a hostile atmosphere.
Master Software and Qimao are hostile, and there is nowhere to talk about cooperation.
The effect of this trick was not expected by Meng Qian, who was busy with work.
But Zhou Xiaoming, the boss of Qimao, has seen through the essence of this, and at the same time, a worry ensues.
The odd cat is different from Penguin and Ten Degrees, it is the dominant position in the industry, and if it loses the first place, the blow will be very serious; On the contrary, Penguin and Ten Degrees are already at a disadvantage in terms of security software, and it doesn't matter if they go backwards, but moving forward is the icing on the cake.
The second point is that Penguin and Shidu have a huge potential user group, such as Penguin Chat, Shidu Search, etc.; And the odd cat doesn't, they rely on security software to make a fortune, if you lose this advantage, a year and a half behind, it's even more difficult to catch up.
At the company meeting held, the senior management also said: "According to rumors, the third version of the optimization master has also launched corresponding functions for the characteristics of our security steward, and there are Penguin and Shidu helpers, and they are currently very rich in resources." ”
Zhou Xiaoming held his chin and asked, "How long will it take for us to develop products with the same technology?" ”
"It may take ten months, but the opponent will continue to improve and improve."
"It's not going to work at this speed." Zhou Xiaoming shook his head, "In terms of technical competition, it is very difficult for us to catch up, but what about funds?" ”
The assistant said: "With the possibility, Master Software pays great attention to publicity, and the consumption of funds is very large. ”
Zhou Xiaoming considered: "With the character of Penguin and Ten Degrees, I believe that they are definitely partners with bad intentions, if we offer better conditions?" ”
Wading through the troubled waters?
There are already Penguins and Ten Degrees among the shareholders of Master Software, and if it is a strange cat to join in, it will definitely be a lively dog-eat-dog scene.
And Meng Qian, who made this situation, either had a problem with his brain or was ambitious.
Zhou Xiaoming finally asked: "When will the new version of the optimization master be released?" ”
"Tomorrow."
……
The next day, in a high-profile manner, the 2.0 version of the optimization master was released.
This time it includes more functions than the previous two versions, and the size of the software has been more than doubled. From the point of view of the updated functions, the mainstream housekeeping software functions on the market are all available. Relying on the highlights brought by technological advantages, it has many fans.
There is no doubt that the master software is aimed at the Odd Cat Butler.
In the choice of similar functions, but with stronger core performance, lighter and faster, mobile phone users who pay more attention to the operation experience, it is easy to turn fans. According to statistics, in the past seven days, the installed capacity of Optimization Master has continued to rise, and it is still highly praised.
The software is as hot as expected.
This scene was presented in front of the giants, and various conspiracies and tricks were gradually staged.
