"Haha, Mr. Yang Zhiyuan, it's so interesting for you to speak. *.”

Zhang Ning laughed, but Zhang Ning said, "I'm just very strange, speaking of which, we are still competitors in some places, and you actually ask competitors to evaluate your Yahoo, aren't you afraid that I will say something angry with you?" ”

"What's so angry with me, I've always thought that competitors are the ones who know us best at Yahoo. If we can get the evaluation of our competitors, perhaps, we Yahoo can avoid a lot of detours. ”

"But what if I lie to you?"

"To cheat or not to cheat, Yang can still tell the difference. Furthermore, I believe in Mr. Zhang Ning's character. ”

"Okay, since Mr. Yang Zhiyuan said so, I don't think I can say it."

Zhang Ning was not moved by Yang Zhiyuan's tall hat.

However, since he came here, Zhang Ning also took advantage of the situation to start with this.

"Please."

Yang Zhiyuan looked deaf.

"That's right, in my opinion, Yahoo does have a big problem."

"What's the problem?"

"How to say it, this problem is actually not a problem, if you want to talk about the problem, you can only say that there may be some that cannot keep up with the pace of the times."

Yang Zhiyuan realized something, and felt that Zhang Ning seemed to have made sense of what he said.

"Mr. Zhang Ning, please continue."

"The emergence of Yahoo back then, from our perspective now, is not how much innovation Yahoo's technology was back then, nor how many powerful bus commercial operations Yahoo did. Rather, the emergence of Yahoo conforms to the trend of the times, and Yahoo is in line with the general trend of Internet development. So, Yahoo succeeded. ”

"Makes sense."

Both Yang Zhiyuan and David nodded from time to time.

Although the outside world has always given Yahoo countless honors, both are well aware.

Yahoo's success back then was to follow the development of the times, or history.

To put it more bluntly, it's lucky.

"However, as the Internet continues to grow, we can already see it. The development model of the Internet is no longer just a single portal model, the powerful Internet, he also gives people more interaction, so, in addition to Yahoo as the basic portal platform, there are instant messaging, search engines, e-commerce, including online games, and there will be video websites in the future. ”

"Yes, I agree with Mr. Zhang Ning's view, and we also believe that the future model of the Internet cannot be a single portal-based website experience. As the needs of users continue to change, there will be more interactive products in the future. Yahoo, on the other hand, has already begun to lay out some of these future trends, such as search engines, video websites, instant messaging, including e-commerce...... Wait a minute. ”

"Here's the problem."

"How?"

Both of them were stunned.

"Could it be that we are wrong?"

"You can't be wrong, but you're too late to enter."

"Of course, that's not the main reason, the main reason is that you have too much to cover."

"There's too much to cover?"

Neither of them understood.

"Isn't it good for us to lay out these things in advance?"

"It's not that it's bad, but you should know that human energy is limited. Yahoo is a portal website, and under the basis of a portal website, it may be normal for you to enter search, and it is normal to enter video, even if it is to enter e-commerce, instant messaging...... Wait, it's all normal. It's just that if you enter all at once, don't you think, have you done too much? You may be an expert on the portal, but you may not be in other areas. Although, among them, they are both Internet businesses. However, as the Internet develops more and more, the division of labor on the Internet is becoming more and more sophisticated. As he becomes more sophisticated, he will need more granular expertise. That's why you Yahoo have entered so many businesses, but none of them have developed. ”

"I kind of get it."

Yang Zhiyuan nodded, "Indeed, speaking of which, we are not experts in other businesses. Although we invited many experts to come and help, we also failed to succeed because of various problems. ”

"The point is, you have too many things to think about, and too much to spread out."

"We know, just, we're worried too. If we don't lay out these businesses in advance, it will be much more difficult to enter in the future than now. Therefore, we know that it will not be too smooth to launch major businesses at once, and we will share our energy, but in order to lay out the market, we can only enter. ”

David interjected on the side.

"It depends on your choice, which business is important, which business can influence the future Internet trend, then, which part we enter. Other businesses are tempting, but if they can't have an impact on the future of the Internet, or if they just look like they can make a profit, can we take a step forward and then launch them? ”

Seeing that the two of them still hadn't reached the end, Zhang Ning gritted his teeth and said directly, "Take our Penguin Company as an example, why our Penguin Company can control the Internet, there is no other reason, just because I think farther than others." ”

"While other people were doing portals, I was doing instant messaging. I'm still doing instant messaging while others are doing instant messaging. While other people were making games, I was still doing instant messaging. Until, I monopolized the domestic market with instant messaging, and I started the game further, starting the search engine...... And so on. And, after I entered these businesses, with the advantages I had accumulated in the instant messaging area, we at Penguin were simply invincible over other businesses. That's why we at Penguin are lagging behind, but we're catching up. This is why, even in the face of the attack of international super IT companies, we at Penguin are not afraid. ”

Zhang Ning, this time it can be said that he has told the experience of pressing the bottom of the box.

After hearing this, the two changed color again and again.

I saw that both of them had flickering eyes, as if they couldn't bear it anymore in their hearts.

"Oh my God, Mr. Zhang Ning, your thinking is really too long-term."

David exclaimed.

"Thank you."

However, compared with David's exclamation, Yang Zhiyuan thought more.

"Mr. Zhang Ning, I want to thank you solemnly."

"That's so polite, I'm just talking about it casually."

"No, you don't just talk about it, I don't think any giant company would say that to me."

Yang Zhiyuan said seriously.

He knew that Zhang Ning's words were by no means ordinary.

How big of a mind and courage does it take for someone to even share the success of their own company.

Of course, Zhang Ning was still smiling.

But in his heart, he thought that if he could make this guy pay attention, he could be regarded as achieving his goal.

As for sharing the success of Penguin, it seems to be very generous. But Zhang Ning knows that sometimes, understanding a truth is not the same thing as whether or not you can do it. Penguin's recipe for success may seem simple, but to do so, it requires a strong vision and terrifying execution.

Yahoo may have terrifying execution, but it may not have a strong vision.
