Meals should be eaten one bite at a time, and one by one should be discussed. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoConsidering that Xiao Zha had the farthest way back, Chen Wenhao first had a tea party with Xiao Zha for two.

Xiaozha has two needs, one is that the two-year agreement for the website translation module has passed most of the time, and it will expire in a few months, and he hopes to renew the contract and still sign the exclusivity clause.

Chen Wenhao's request for Xiaozha is not surprising, although the number of global paying users of Xiaoka translation software has reached 200 million, it is still a small number compared to the number of active users of Facebook. Since Facebook monopolized the intelligent translation component, the number of new users and the number of active users have continued to grow rapidly. Today, it has 1.8 billion monthly active users, ranking first among all social networking sites. This is a figure disclosed in Facebook's public report. The undisclosed data is that nearly 20% of the new active users, mainly from Asia and Africa, rely on the convenience of the translation component.

The overseas paying users of small cards are mainly distributed in Europe and the United States, and Facebook's largest source of user growth is in Asia and Africa, so Facebook will never give up its demand for website translation components unless it is forced to do so. However, now and the original situation is different, for more than a year, Facebook has completely secured the top position of the global social platform, and has further distanced itself from the chasers behind it, and the contract renewal offer cannot be as high as the first time.

Chen Wenhao now needs help with scientific and technological information, and most of them are directly connected with the spacecraft intelligent Simka, but the role of the small card is still very important. In return for Chen Wenhao for building a supercomputing center for it, it will regularly sort out and analyze the dynamics of major technology companies and R&D institutions around the world, and summarize and send them to Chen Wenhao for reference. It calculates the exact impact of the translation plugin on Facebook.

Mr. Xiaoza wants to renew his exclusive partnership agreement for another two years, with an offer of $2 billion for two years. Chen Wenhao did not play any tricks of calculating and bargaining, and said on the spot that there was no problem in signing a two-year contract, and the cost was only 1.5 billion US dollars, but the exclusivity clause was only for regions outside China. In other words, if it is a Chinese website, you can also use the translation plugin at the same time.

For Chen Wenhao, intelligent translation software has the characteristics of low promotion threshold and wide demand group, and it is the most suitable product to obtain the first pot of gold and start the company's popularity. Facebook has fulfilled both of these needs with a sky-high $5 billion contract, and now that the translation software has fulfilled its mission, Chen hopes that more people will feel the convenience of crossing the language barrier, even if it is a short-term gain. Otherwise, there is no need for Chen Wenhao to introduce third-party shareholders into Kamodo and set up a listing plan.

Xiao Zha was a little surprised, but after a little consideration, he agreed. Domestic social platforms are basically still limited to China, and do not compete directly with Facebook, which has long been operating internationally. The largest platform is Q and WeChat in the hands of Lao Ma, with about 800 million monthly active users, but the product characteristics and operation models of Q and WeChat are very different from Facebook, and do not form a direct conflict.

In addition, Xiaozha's Facebook company is also carrying out a lot of research and development projects, and there is a great demand for high-performance batteries. The emerging battery industry alliance established by Infinite Future Company can provide new lithium batteries, which are currently the best products in the international market in terms of price and performance. However, at present, the seven enterprises of the industrial alliance, most of them have just absorbed and digested good technology, and the output has not been fully exerted, and several of them have to supply their own product lines first, and the remaining output is naturally not much, and the priority is given to domestic enterprises, and Xiaozha can buy it is far from enough.

Before the new base in Yidong was opened, the output of Chen Wenhao's battery factory was enough for the drone product line, but with the unmanned production workshop of the new base, the output is no longer a problem, and there is not much attention to it, not only can the output be exploded, but also the new battery with high specifications.

In the future, Li Jianguo's battery factory will continue to expand and increase production, with the goal of reaching an annual production capacity of 8GWh, expanding the product line from traditional lithium batteries to power batteries, and providing battery accessories for basic drones. The production line of the base is mainly for the production of accessories for the enhanced and professional versions of the drone, and will also produce some battery accessories that are not suitable for disclosure. Anyway, there is the existence of alien black technology, there is no problem at all in terms of technology, in fact, now let the manufacturers who provide industrial robots come to the scene again, I am afraid they will be surprised by the performance of their own products, completely beyond the theoretical indicators.

With this layout, Chen Wenhao will naturally not refuse Xiaozha's order, anyway, what he needs is the basic battery, and Lao Li's battery factory expansion work has been done, and the increased production capacity is enough to deal with it.

When Chen Wenhao and Xiaozha were talking, Lao Ma and Lao Liu were also chatting, since Lao Ma invested in JD.com on behalf of Penguin, the relationship between the two has been very good. The two of them each ordered a cup of coffee in the leisure area of the headquarters building, and found a clean place to sit down with the coffee handmade on the spot. As guests of the company, they enjoy the same free treatment as the employees.

Lao Liu took a sip of coffee, and his eyes lit up, "This coffee is good, you can try it." At the same time, he looked at the recreation area arranged as a tropical rainforest, looking at the overhead space with a ceiling height twice as high as that of ordinary buildings, and the position of the ceiling was like a blue sky and white clouds after washing, lifelike, if it were not for the explanation of the service staff, he would not dare to imagine that this was a virtual picture.

He couldn't help but say, "I've seen a little bit of a scene, but it's the first time I've seen an office like this." Seriously, if I were looking for a job now, I would want to work here. ”

Lao Ma put down the coffee cup, "The coffee tastes very mellow, but the more I drink it, the more bitter it becomes." He gestured his finger to the top of the ceiling, "You have also noticed, this virtual imaging technology has completely surpassed the existing similar technology. We have a similar project in there, the project leader went to their Jianghai flagship store a few days ago, and when he came back, he sent me an email, and strongly recommended that you either cooperate with them or buy the company, and it is said that the flagship store is bigger than here. ”

"Acquisition?" Lao Liu laughed, "Do you think Chen Wenhao will be willing to sell?" After visiting in the past two days, I was thrilled to see this scene, and I was generous! People are not short of money and sales, and I heard that he not only holds the full amount of the company, but also does not even have a penny of loans. ”

"There's nothing you can't talk about. Besides, I don't think he's the kind of person who is particularly self-cherished, otherwise the Kamodo company would have nothing to do with our other shareholders. There is also a new battery industry alliance, which can be seen by anyone with a discerning eye, which is to give up the temptation of monopoly, and it is difficult for ordinary people to make this decision. ”

"yes, don't talk about how to know. I came this time to have a good talk with him. If you can get the right to sell drones, it will be the first in e-commerce. Lao Liu talked about the goal of coming over this time, and naturally there was nothing to keep secret about Lao Ma, the major shareholder, not to mention that he was able to come in this time to save Lao Ma's face.

……

In the afternoon, Lao Ma and Lao Liu hadn't talked to Chen Wenhao yet, but together with Chen Wenhao, they bid farewell to Xiao Zha, Jim and Si Ze and others. Xiaozha got Chen Wenhao's promise and was satisfied, and the specific contract signing matters will naturally be followed up by the relevant personnel of the company.

In the past two days, Jim and Size, as representatives of venture capital institutions, have also done a lot of communication with Chen Wenhao, Jin Wei and other executives of Kamodo, which is also a necessary part of the work. The company's performance and trends have been improving, and they are very excited.

These people are all influential figures in their respective fields, and the follow-up schedules are very full, and the three of them will leave Yidong and go their separate ways. Xiao Zha rarely came to China and planned to go to the capital to continue to be his politician. In order to enter the domestic market, Facebook has done its best. The funds managed by Jim and Size have invested a lot in China in the past two years, and the two of them also plan to visit a number of investment companies.

Before leaving, Jim and Si Ze paid special attention to the remaining Lao Ma and Lao Liu, as venture capital practitioners are sensitive, they can't help but secretly speculate about the projects they want to discuss, and invariably instruct their accompanying subordinates to pay special attention to the dynamics of Tencent, JD.com and Infinite Future recently.

Chen Wenhao's office is located on the top floor of the headquarters building, and the oversized office is arranged in the shape of the command area of the bridge of the spacecraft, with large floor-to-ceiling glass windows on three sides.

The three of them exchanged pleasantries for a while, and Lao Liu changed his sitting posture on the egg-shaped semi-open chair and cocked his thumb, "I also told Mr. Ma before, this time I saw Mr. Chen's office area, and I already feel that my office can't stay, which is what a technology company should be, but I'm afraid this cost is not something that ordinary companies can afford." Chen's company's sales of light drones this year are close to 100 billion. ”

Chen Wenhao smiled and waved his hand, "Mr. Liu is too exaggerated, don't think I'm exaggerated here." Come, the two of you taste this tea, it is said to be picked from the ancient tea tree, I don't know much, but it is really okay to drink. Chen Wenhaoyun opened the topic lightly, anyway, if the other party doesn't get into the topic, he won't take the initiative to mention it, just be Kan Dashan. At this time, whoever takes the initiative will have the upper hand.

Lao Liu saw that Chen Wenhao didn't answer the phone, and Lao Ma quietly exchanged glances, he resolutely spoke, "Mr. Chen, I don't go around in circles anymore, this time, on behalf of JD.com, I want to cooperate with your company in drone sales, JD.com is very sincere in cooperation, and can promise annual sales targets." ”

Jingdong is full of sincerity for this cooperation talk. Jingdong's annual sales have approached 500 billion yuan, the growth rate is very high, but the driving force of rapid growth mainly comes from the third-party open platform, Jingdong's starting business is also the most advantageous business - electronic digital products, the growth rate of various data is significantly lower than that of other categories, and internal executives are full of a sense of crisis.

At this time, the drone products of the infinite future company were born, creating a myth of 10 billion yuan, which was also favored by the management of JD.com, if it can sell this product as an agent, and even win the exclusive sales right, it can not only strengthen the core business, but also create enough topics and attention.

Originally, when the supply of selfie drones was in short supply, and the company's own website could not catch up with the sales in the supply of unlimited future, JD.com did not have expectations. However, after the start of construction of the new base in Yidong, various information shows that the new base will arrange production lines to increase the production of drones, which makes them see hope: more production capacity requires a wider sales channel.

However, Chen Wenhao is not very public in public, and it is a comet-like rise, so it is difficult to catch up with the line, so Lao Liu personally came out and relied on Lao Ma's relationship to have this meeting. Lao Liu has also made various preferential conditions for this reason, such as logistics, inventory, etc., and can make concessions.

However, Chen Wenhao's reaction was a bit unexpected by Lao Liu, whether it was a refusal or an interest in talking, he made a corresponding negotiation plan, but Chen Wenhao was silent for a few seconds, and then spoke, "This topic can be talked about later, if the two CEOs are interested, let's go see something first." ”
