Chapter 149: Pinch the head and remove the tail

Liang Haiyue suddenly said: "No, we have such an Internet café downstairs, I saw it the day before yesterday, and I paid attention to it at that time." Later, we passed by the train station, and there was another one on the other side. I don't know how many there are, but there should be more than one. ”

Everyone looked at each other. Qi Yue asked with some hesitation, "Is this source reliable?" ”

Chen Jun ran out and gave Chao Yikang his mobile phone.

Chao Yikang was also stunned. Hu Yuncheng also reminded him that neither Hu Yuncheng nor he himself felt that this matter was very important, so the data collection was not done by him personally, and he was not very clear about the specific situation.

Chao Yikang contacted the person who collected the information to call Chen Jun back.

“…… This part was collected two months ago, when the company really only had one Internet café. He had already checked it just now, and now it has expanded to seven. Chao Yikang couldn't wait to slap himself twice, where would he have thought that Chen Jun would care so much about this information, and study every detail of it. If there is a big joke because the intelligence is outdated, if this sycophant is slapped on the horse's leg, it is better not to shoot it.

Chen Jun returned to the room and explained the situation, and everyone was surprised. Six Internet cafes were opened in two months, and although the financing ability is strong, the speed of spending money is fast enough.

When the expansion of Xianglong Internet Cafe was the most violent, it can be said that it was in full bloom, much faster than that. However, Xianglong Internet Cafe did not have such a strong expansion ability in the early days, and although it is expanding very fast now, the capital of Xianglong Internet Cafe is far from being comparable to today's flames.

Flame expands its Internet cafes like this, presumably hoping to occupy the market at all costs.

Cui Jianqiu muttered: "Flame now seems to be replicating the trajectory of Xianglong in many aspects. ”

Although Qi Yue is an outsider, he has always paid great attention to Xianglong, and he also knows Xianglong well, so he can't help but say: "This kind of reproduction obviously wants to create another Xianglong." In some ways, Xianglong took the monopoly route, and now Blaze obviously has this intention, and in the future, the two will compete with each other, and this battle will not be easy to fight. ”

The geographical distance between country Z and country M makes Xianglong temporarily out of reach of this whip, which gives Flame a great development advantage.

Chen Jun looked at everyone, "We have limited energy now, and we can't blindly expand. So you think we should continue to cultivate our own territory, not care about the full market share, but focus on continuing to maintain a leading business model. Or come to country Z to open up territory and engage with the flames? ”

For Xianglong, Chen Jun's internal management is basically handed over to Jiang Chunqi now, and he doesn't care much about daily affairs, but he is still a boss with a very strong sense of existence. For all of Xianglong's products, he not only formulates the development direction, but also often asks about the details. And Xianglong's strong financing ability mainly relies on Chen Jun's connections.

Whether it is the company's development direction, or the product itself, or financing channels, although it cannot be said that Xianglong is Chen Jun's word, but Chen Jun can definitely play a decisive role in it. And Chen Jun has always been more decisive, and Xianglong's main directional problem is basically his idea. It's relatively rare to ask for everyone's opinion like this.

As soon as this statement came out, everyone didn't react. On the contrary, it was the outsider Qi Yue who was the first to say: "We fantasize that although we have made up our minds to go to the end on the road of safety products and do not plan to set foot in other categories, since we want to do deep and refined this category, we must make this category to the extreme." We will not sit idly by and watch the flame's safety products sit big, we are already preparing to enter the market of country Z, and we will study how to enter the market after the inspection. ”

Qi Yue is ambitious, and to do it, it is necessary to be the biggest and strongest in the vertical field of security products. But fantasy is fantasy, Xianglong is Xianglong, and the two companies are completely incomparable. Xianglong's industrial chain is too long, and the battle line is too wide, such a behemoth must be cautious in making directional decisions, otherwise it will be difficult to turn around.

But Chen Jun is not a boss with a one-word style, although he basically makes up his mind, but he has never allowed other voices in the company, and the company's employees can basically speak freely, especially the management.

That is, because he has not been asked much by Chen Jun like this, Cui Jianqiu, who was slightly stunned for a moment, was the first to react, Chen Jun often discussed with him in the operation of the company, and he could still understand Chen Jun's train of thought.

Immediately said: "I think we can't be biased, we should enter the market of country Z as soon as possible." ”

Chen Jun motioned for him to continue.

"In the future, the development of the Internet will never be isolated, and the entire Bai Ze plane may be connected in the near future. Rather than fight with Flame Life and Death at that time, it is better to take advantage of the absolute advantage now that we have the absolute advantage. ”

Liang Haiyue has always been more cautious, and when he heard this, he said: "Our absolute advantage is in our country, but in country Z, our foundation is not as good as that of Blaze." ”

Cui Jianqiu smiled slightly, "Although Flame has strong financing capabilities, it is also a start-up after all, and their battle front is also very long, so there are many places to use money." They are limited by money and do not dare to get involved in operators, but this is precisely our advantage. ”

Liang Haiyue didn't dare to pat his chest and said, "Do you know how much money the headquarters has invested in us and Lianhe in the past two years?" We are too underfunded for our own domestic construction, and where can we have a large amount of money to open up this side of the battlefield. ”

Chen Jun's eyes lit up, "We can take a stake in the local operators here." ”

Whether it is Blaze, or Liang Haiyue, who is a little far away from Xianglong's headquarters and is not often by Chen Jun's side, I am afraid that he does not attach as much importance to the Internet entrance as Cui Jianqiu, who chats with Chen Jun when he has nothing to do.

Internet entry-level products are important, but to some extent, Internet operators are simply stuck in the throat of the entrance. Especially for a company like Xianglong, which is almost the whole industry chain, the advantages should not be too strong.

If nothing else, let's just say that Xianglong has just launched the mobile Monternet business, which is Xianglong's exclusive technology for the time being. Now people have not seen the strong profitability of Monternet, if you can invest in the Internet operators here and promote this technology in country Z, then many products of Flame will not have the power of harmony in front of Xianglong.

And even if Blaze discovers the mystery in the future, but without the cooperation of the operator, can they still independently research the mobile Monternet technology that is ahead of Xianglong? It's not that it's impossible, but it's difficult. And the operator here has been invested by Xianglong, so it is impossible to rely on the flame side again.

In the end, Cui Jianqiu made a summary: "It is our disadvantage to stretch the battle line too long, but it is not a flame." If you want to learn from us, you can't learn from the beginning to the end. ”
