Since Chen Bo and Guan Xin came to Osaka, they began to eat and eat like a small train, coming and going by the wall.

When he returned to Tokyo, Kasawara Kenji had already prepared a very detailed plan, elaborated and analyzed the entire website construction concept and concept from all aspects, and even made certain plans for the future profit model, and in order to facilitate Chen Bo's faster understanding, he also specially produced two versions in English and Japanese.

After all, it is an elite intellectual at the University of Tokyo, coupled with the rigor of the Japanese, this plan is basically impeccable, and if there is one, it is only a flaw in some details.

“Mixi？ Eat.com? Chen Bo asked, this newly planned website actually has such a name that is not easy to understand.

However, this question made Kenji Kasahara a little confused, and he didn't understand what it meant at all. Guan Xin took the initiative to explain at this time, "There is no pronunciation of Mixi in Japanese, in fact, it is a misreading of film and television works." The Japanese pronunciation of 食 is "Scosey". ”

"Cough, film and television works are really harmful." Chen Bo smiled awkwardly and almost fell into a big pit.

"Mix is communication, i is me, and Mixi can be understood as my communication center. Mainly use kawaii style to attract young people to join, and increase the two-dimensional content layout. After Kenji Kasahara understood his misunderstanding, he hurriedly explained accordingly, "At the same time, I also hope to gather more popularity." ”

"Well, then I understand. You know more about Japanese culture than any of us. 15 million US dollars, we hold 65% of the shares, you personally 35%, I will not ask about the daily operation and management, Shen Ma is here as a full technical representative, and other technical teams will be appointed from China or the United States to assist you. ”

“ok！ I'm fine. ”

Chen Bo was very satisfied with Kasahara's plan, and added an additional $5 million investment on the original basis, which was jointly invested by Ant and Maidong.

Since he came to Japan, the epidemic in China has become increasingly serious, and the most serious one is Yanjing, which has been designated as an epidemic area by the WHO. All the staff there worked directly from home to avoid the risk of infection, according to the established plan.

Even if they were to be transferred to Japan, there was a risk that they would be rejected by customs, and they would have to be quarantined at the airport. Guan Xin will temporarily be responsible for the docking and construction of the website, and will also deal with some music copyright issues, and then return to China after the domestic epidemic situation stabilizes.

And after Chen Bo accompanied Guan Xin to Tokyo Disneyland for a day, he was about to fly to the United States, where things have been too variable.

Before I had time to care about Gao Yuanyuan's situation when I came out of San Francisco International Airport, I went straight to Sunnyvale's office, where the technical team that arrived in the early stage had already converged with Williams and was working to improve and build the Silicon Valley R&D center of Ant Search.

The search engine market in the United States has been a little confusing since the beginning of the year, and there have been large-scale mergers and acquisitions, and the search engine market has begun a new round of reshuffle.

After changing infoseek under the control of Walt Disney to Go., it almost lost its original market, and now it is completely out of play, directly changing to its own official website, and billions of dollars have been wasted.

Overture was the first company to acquire Fast, followed by altavista, and two search engine technology providers were taken into account. In a few days, Yahoo, which already owns inktomi, has offered another $1.4 billion to acquire Overture, and has entered the substantive negotiation stage.

Unwilling to be lonely, AOL Group decided to abandon inktomi, which had become a subsidiary of Yahoo, and announced a partnership with Google to use their search engine technology.

Microsoft, which was bitten hard by Foxmail and was in a hurry, is now also announcing the establishment of a search business unit in a high-profile manner, which will be improved on the basis of MSN Search and launched in the second half of the year.

Google, which seems to be the quietest, acquires and absorbs some small technology companies almost every month to complement your technology chain, and has officially started the plan of share reform, which is not more than a year away from the listing on the Nasdaq.

According to the leaky prospectus, Google's revenue last year reached 300 million US dollars, and the annual profit was 100 million, which is a shot in the arm for Silicon Valley, which has just come out of the Internet bubble. In the past two years, the Internet has been sung down by Wall Street, and the unprofitable Internet has now made people see new economic growth points, and the chaotic war of search engines has attracted more people's attention.

Even the three major domestic portals have also entered the profitable army with the help of wireless value-added services, which directly stimulates the entire market.

If there is anyone left who has not moved, there may be only an independent search engine Excite, which was once popular in the United States, but now it has long been declining, and a market share of 5% is a luxury for him.

After careful analysis, Foxmail has become a catalyst after entering the U.S. market, grabbing the mailbox service market share of Microsoft, Yahoo and AOL in just a few months, and has attracted about 15 million users with two open axes of free and large capacity, and in the handling of anti-spam and anti-virus, Zhang Xiaolong's technical team has been very good.

This has already made several companies hate itchy, if you can't see through Chen Bo's little tricks at this time, don't live. If you use free to open the way for search engines, I won't fulfill your wish, how can you be wild in the United States. Therefore, this kind of plan is clearly to search for ants that are still secretive and half-covered with pipa.

The market in the U.S. and Japan is significantly different, with Americans trying new things, exploring the unknown, and using technology to advance society, while Japan prefers to go one step further in traditional industries and achieve the ultimate in the extreme!

I had a brief meeting, and after understanding the situation, I haven't figured out anything for the time being. The struggle here is noticeably more fierce than at home, and it is also more brutal and ruthless. Fortunately, both MySpace and Foxmail are in a very good state of development, and they have maintained a financial balance without investing too much in promotion costs, although they are not profitable, but at least they are not losing money.

After doing all this, Chen Bo drove to his temporary base in California, near Baylands Park in San Francisco's South Bay, and rented a row of single-family houses in the name of the company for the technical team that had traveled across the ocean. The United States is vast and sparsely populated, and if you want to rent a building and apartment, you can only find it in the center of the big city, and most of the other places are single-family garden houses.

Sunnyvale's English name is Sunnyvale, which has the meaning of Sunshine Valley and is quite poetic. Of course, it is not a bitter family, it is also the headquarters of Yahoo and AMD, and it was once the location of the famous arms company Lockheed, and the F-series fighter jets, C-series transport aircraft, and Trident missiles are all famous, but later merged with Martin. Marietta later became Lockheed Martin and moved to Massachusetts.

Sunnyvale is a small county town compared to China, with a total population of only more than 100,000, but about half of them are Asian, and yellow-skinned faces can be seen everywhere, which may be Chinese, Japanese, Korean or Indian, so the difference in life will not be too big, which is also one of the reasons why Chen Bo chose here in the first place.

Passing through the main hall of the room, there is a small garden facing the bay at the back door, and the bare-foliage triangular plum trees climb half of the walls, and the purple petals are in full bloom. On the swing under the apple tree, a delicate figure sits quietly, immersed in the sea of books.

Chen Bo walked over lightly and grabbed the touch of incense from behind.

"What do you see, think I don't?"

"Books!"

Gao Yuanyuan was unmoved, she didn't raise her eyelids, and she cherished the words like gold.

"I'm sorry that you're here alone, I brought you some small gifts from Japan." Chen Bo took out a delicate Japanese style gift box from his back, which contained the pottery figurines of geisha, which were colorful and very exquisite. Gao Yuanyuan was born in a scholarly family, and has been cultivated into the style of a literary and artistic youth since she was a child, and she will carry books with her almost everywhere she goes, and she will also like to collect small things with cultural connotations such as face masks and terracotta figurines.

If you give her an expensive bag, she may not be eye-catching, just like she usually likes simple jeans and flat shoes, which is also her unique charm.

"Oh."

Gao Yuanyuan took the gift box and glanced at it and put it aside, Chen Bo could already clearly feel her unhappiness at this time.

"What about being angry with me? After getting off the plane and having a meeting, I ran all the way back, and I wanted to see you quickly, and I didn't dare to delay for a moment. ”

"Humph!" This time it was a roll of the eyes that gave him.

What's going on? Looks like I'm going to have to use the killer weapon I rely on to survive!

"Do you know that there are two kinds of people in this world?"

"Men and women!" Gao Yuanyuan finally said a few more words, but there was a cold chill between the words.

"No, it's good-looking and ugly, you belong to good-looking!"

"What about you?"

"I'm so ugly!"

Poof, she finally couldn't hold back, and took the lead in laughing, but after realizing it, she immediately held back, and said with an indifferent face, "You don't have a hippie smile, I ask you!" What's going on with that Korean woman? ”

cough, I thought it was a big deal, anyway, he was innocent, and he wasn't afraid of this, so he quickly explained.

"I met when I went to South Korea, I have a partnership with her brother, she came to Yanjing to play, how can I do my best to be a landlord, Guan Xin and Liu Qing both know, nothing has happened to us!"

"Then why did you live at home? I can smell the perfume in the guest bedroom, and she went to Pengcheng to find you!! ”

"You really have to ask Liu Qing, I flew directly from Yanjing to the crew to find you, and then went to Pengcheng for a meeting, and when I returned to Shanghai, she lived in our house. You say that you don't understand a girl who doesn't understand the language and don't know her well, I can't bear to kick her out. You also said that it was a guest bedroom, but I am a serious person! ”

"Hmph, you're not human! With me and Sister Xin, I went to provoke other little girls! ”

"I swear, I promise absolutely not, and as soon as I arrived in Pengcheng, I will put her on the plane back to Seoul!"

"That's pretty much it!"

Explaining bitterly, finally satisfying her, Chen Bo looked at her eyes, and said affectionately, "Once the sea was difficult to water, it is enough to have you." ”

Sweet love words will eventually melt this coldness.
