253 is menacing
After a long multi-party remote video conference, Chen Wenhao only had time to stretch his waist and pressed the function key of the desk phone:
"Xiao Zhong, where is Mr. Jin?"
"You are busy in front of you, Mr. Jin and they went to the small conference room to wait for you."
"Now that I'm empty, let him come directly to me."
"Okay, I'll go and ask Mr. Jin to come over right away."
……
The scale of the company is expanding rapidly, and there are more and more affairs that require Chen Wenhao's decision, and the administrative department has conducted several rounds of selection within the company and selected a lucky person as his administrative assistant. This assistant candidate is a female employee who has just joined the company for one year, named Zhong Dandan, who is only 25 years old, but graduated from a prestigious school, has strong ability, is very organized, thoughtful, and performs particularly well in the original position. This time, she quickly adapted to her new role in a short period of time, and Chen Wenhao was very satisfied with the quality and efficiency of her work.
The company has developed so far, although it has not been established for a long time, but its popularity among young people has not been weaker than any company, coupled with generous income and good working environment, although the headquarters is not in several of the most well-known central cities, it is still regarded by many professionals as one of the most wanted companies.
The assistant went to greet Jin Wei, and Chen Wenhao leaned back in his chair, recalling the situation of the video conference: the coalition of opponents in the United States unexpectedly implemented a free strategy, which made many people with interests in the Kamodo company nervous. In the video conference that just ended, several major shareholders of Kamodo participated in it to discuss the coping strategy.
From the performance point of view, accel, greylock two venture capital company representatives of the most anxious, after all, seeing that the Kamodo company has been established for two years, profitability continues to grow, the industry prospects are particularly good, it is simply the most popular company template for public market investors, and then as long as the successful completion of the sunny road of listing, the shares in their hands can immediately reap huge profits, and then whether it is a profit exit or continue to hold, there is enough room for operation.
Unfortunately, for the two investment companies, A and G, the beautiful hope was completely shattered by the unreasonable "free" offensive. Generally speaking, European and American companies rarely use the big killer trick of "free" in their own market competition. The market awareness in Europe and the United States is relatively perfect, and consumers are more willing to pay for the services they need, so most of the time companies only use low-price promotions, and rarely they are really free. Of course, the reason why it cannot be made public is that companies are worried that they will use too much of the double-edged sword of free, and they will cross the market after raising consumers. This shows the determination of the coalition of opponents led by Apple to try to seize the artificial intelligence market.
In the video conference, all parties just informed each other of the information at hand, and how to deal with it, others still have to wait for Chen Wenhao to get an idea. As the party that holds more than 55% of the shares of Kamodo, with the overwhelming voting power on the board of directors, Chen Wenhao has always held the control of the company firmly in his hands.
The reason why part of the equity was transferred was to get the support of the new shareholders in terms of sales and promotion, and on the other hand, considering that the AI business is more sensitive, multiple shareholders can resolve some of the resistance in this regard and better promote it globally. But judging from the current situation, the progress of the company's business in the European and American markets has not been satisfactory, and this time it is even more so, which gives him new ideas, but how to operate, still needs to be considered.
Just thinking about it, Xiao Zhong and Jin Wei came back together.
"What's the matter with your eyes?" Chen Wenhao was startled when he saw Jin Wei for the first time. Jin Wei, who has always paid great attention to grooming, not only had bloodshot eyes, but also red like rabbit eyes, and even swollen and bulging.
"It looks amazing, but it's actually nothing serious", Jin Wei sat opposite Chen Wenhao and said with a wry smile, "It's not that the United States has made trouble, I have been in a meeting with the company's middle-level and above personnel for the past two nights, and my eyes seem to be inflamed." ”
"Don't be intimidated by the enemy's voice, sometimes a little competition is not a bad thing, and when you are chased by a dog, you can find that you can run faster." Chen Wenhao was a colleague with Jin Wei before he started his business, and he spoke a lot more casually.
"My boss, my boss, don't pour me chicken soup, this is all knocked on the door." Jin Wei looked anxious, and took out a report from his briefcase, "It has already had a negative impact on the company's business." ”
"Oh?" Chen Wenhao put away a bit of ridicule, the other party has just released a series of artificial intelligence products and announced a free strategy, it was only a day ago from now, so it will have an impact so soon?
As for the artificial intelligence product of the Opponents Alliance, since Chen Wenhao knows its details, it is only harvested from the wreckage of another alien civilization, and it is not as good as the technology level of Xiaoka and Xiaoxi, so he didn't take it too seriously, and the real opponent is definitely not the Opponents Alliance composed of 13 companies.
As for counting on a reminder from Tsundere, don't expect anything. Konishi hasn't shown up for a long time.,The last call was more than half a month ago.,At that time, he said that he was going to drop explorers all over the galaxy or something.,Now it's estimated that it's going to be everywhere.。 This kind of thing, let's listen to the situation collected by Jin Wei here.
Jin Wei has already begun to narrate: "The technical team has evaluated the other party's intelligent software, and the conclusion is that it has basically reached the level of our company's products, whether it is instant translation or for the management of personal affairs, the specific performance is slightly worse than ours, but this gap is acceptable to users." In other words, the other party's product has already had a direct impact on us, especially if it is free. ”
He flipped to one of the pages of the report, "The big data in the background is the best illustrative of the problem, within 24 hours after the release of the intelligent software, the renewal rate of our software monthly users has dropped to 64%, and the average of this indicator in the last 6 months is 82%. ”
Also, a few hours ago, the American IB company, which released the intelligent software, made a new announcement on its official website, and they also began to provide intelligent module customization business, judging from the business description, the function and openness are even more than our products. We haven't gotten any more information yet, and if it's true, it is estimated that it will have a greater impact on our company's business. After all, the revenue from the intelligent module customization business has exceeded half of the company's revenue as early as half a year ago. ”
Chen Wenhao was relatively calm before, but when he heard that the other party's function and openness were stronger, his heart was put on hold, and his spirit suddenly focused a little, and the other party seemed to have more technology than expected, and he thought of a kind of unoptimistic consequence, which he tried his best to avoid before.
"Xiaoka, you go check this matter and see how far the intelligent technology over there has been mastered?" He communicates with consciousness and small cards.
A few seconds later, Xiaoka's reply appeared on the light screen in the corner of his eye, [After analyzing the latest version of the other party's product, it can be confirmed that they have mastered most of the functions of the compiler, and it is estimated that there is a 96.26% chance that you are worried. 】
Chen Wenhao was silent, thought for a while, and found that Jin Wei was still looking at him eagerly, came back to his senses, and almost slapped his forehead, but he still dealt with the matter in front of him first.
"I know the situation, what countermeasures do you have on your side?" Chen Wenhao asked.
Jin Wei's side immediately began to report:
"First, the opponent's free strategy is too powerful and must be dealt with. However, our company's first-mover advantage is obvious, the payer has exceeded 1.5 billion, we believe that the company's products can engage in a feedback customer activity, to provide old customers with a free use period, tentatively 2-4 months, to help stabilize the existing customer base. ”
"Second, increase publicity, focusing on the advantages of our software recognition rate and response speed, more user-friendly use, especially for foreign users."
"Third ,......"
……
Chen Wenhao listened to him Jin Wei list several countermeasures one-two-three-four, which can actually be summed up in six words: free, publicity, and development.
Use free to fight for free, rely on publicity to expand users, and at the same time develop new features to open up the gap with opponents. It is no wonder that Jin Wei hurried to report that any measure would either reduce revenue or increase expenses, and if it was carried out at the same time, the financial statements for the next period would not look too good.
Chen Wenhao waved his pen and signed his name at the end of the report, "Just follow this plan, the speed must be fast, and the intensity must be fierce." ”
"Yes, Mr. Chen!" Jin Wei took the order and left.
This is no longer a pure market competition! Chen Wenhao stared out the window, the opponent's side was so fanfare this time, it was obvious that he wanted to regain the opportunity in the artificial intelligence market. It's just that he doesn't think he's the same as they think. But those aside, it came just in time that the attack had not yet been properly settled.
