Chapter 436: Acquisition of YY

Fight for payment ports.

Sooner or later, there will be a big war between the three parties.

It is also unrealistic to try to curb the development of Ahri and penguins.

It's 2005 now, Penguin has developed into a giant, and Ahri has also received a billion dollars in investment, and the next step will be high-speed development.

Competition in the payment field is unavoidable, so the layout can only be realized.

To be honest, in the field of payment, Zhang Yang really has no confidence to defeat these two!

Lao Ma's personal charm is absolutely not said, and the penguin's micro-chat is a big killer.

The instant messaging field is also greedy, but now is obviously not the time, and it is difficult to compete with penguins.

As long as the penguins rule the instant messaging field, there will still be micro-chats in the future, even if Zhang Yang enters this field in advance.

The other party will never allow them to grow and develop.

That being the case, the only way to do this is to move into the realm of instant messaging.

"By the way, what do you think of us getting into instant messaging?" Zhang Yang looked at Li Ying and asked.

Even if Zhang Yang is a reborn, he is not as familiar with Li Ying as he is in the Internet field.

He just knows that those products will be popular and knows how to operate, but Li Ying is still needed for implementation and analysis.

"It's hard!

Penguins have completely dominated the instant messaging field, and if they want to take food in the tiger's mouth, they will attract a crazy counterattack from the other party. After thinking about it, Li Ying continued: "If it was two years ago, I would have the confidence to grab food in the tiger's mouth, but now! ”

She didn't say it anymore, she believed that Zhang Yang should be able to understand.

The perfect time has now been missed.

At present, instant messaging is dominant, and all the people who can surf the Internet basically have a QQ, and some even have ten or eight, how to compete with each other?

There's no competition at all.

"Da ......" Zhang Yang is not clear, but if you don't enter now, it will be even more difficult to enter in the future!

With the backing of penguins, when the mobile Internet comes, Weichat can still quickly occupy the market by relying on penguins.

When it comes to Penguin's development micro-chat, even Rebus wisely backs down.

There is no competition at all, and the two sides are not at the same level.

"By the way, buy this software." Zhang Yang knocked on the table and turned the computer to Li Ying.

“yy?” Li Ying's face was full of doubts, she really hadn't heard of this software, it seemed that it should be instant messaging.

"Well, that's a good name, let's buy it first."

In the last life, the only instant communication that survived and developed well was YY.

YY found another way, the development of voice chat in instant messaging to kill a bloody way, the penguin did not want to buy YY, the price given is not low, but was still rejected by the YY boss, and then the penguin entered the voice field.

When rejecting the penguin, Mr. YY's psychological struggle never stopped.

He knows very well that once he rejects the penguin, the other party will definitely enter the voice field and oppress YY with the huge traffic of the penguin.

But even so, I refused!

In 2010, YY's founders received a Penguin takeover offer: $150 million in cash, followed by a double price for the founders' shares. Under the temptation of huge profits, the founder insisted on not selling the company, and finally landed on the NASDAQ in 2012 to complete the listing.

The acquisition of YY failed, and Penguin reopened QQtalk, which had been suspended since May 2008.

Then, Penguin's "League of Legends" and many other popular online games have built-in QT voice, and vigorously promote it through player support programs such as gift packs and points, but after all, it is 3 years later than YY voice, although QT voice is backed by the penguin tree to grab part of the market share of YY voice, but it still fails to shake YY voice's dominant position in the gamer market.

After the company went public, the founder said in an interview with the media that the key to YY's ability to grow up under the noses of penguins is to "keep a low profile, not shouting, and not attracting the attention of giants." This allows YY to have enough "development period", complete the accumulation of technology and users, and when it is discovered by the giants, it has grown up, and it is difficult to be killed by "micro-innovation".

Since this routine allowed YY to survive the penguin ban, why couldn't he use it?

Keep a low profile, it's a must.

It must be low-key, and the penguins must not be allowed to react, and by the time they do, YY is no longer challenged by the other party.

Technology accumulation.

YY was established in April 2005 and launched in 2008.

By the time the penguins noticed them, it was already 2010, and YY had polished their technology for two more years, adding up to five years, at this time their voice technology was already very mature, and the penguins were a rising star, and it was difficult to catch up.

In terms of voice technology accumulation, penguins need at least three years to catch up, at least.

You know, while you're catching up, the YY technical team is also improving.

In the ever-changing Internet, you can do a lot of things in three years, and who knows what will happen when the time comes.

However, YY is only a successful voice software, and it is still difficult to break up the huge Penguin users!

It's good that they can protect themselves, where can they be distracted to grab users with penguins.

That's what the penguins want.

The audience in the voice field is not so big, they are all people who like to play games, and they usually use penguins to communicate privately.

If the penguins don't enter the voice field, YY will grow to a certain extent, and maybe they will compete for users in the core field of instant messaging and penguins, but Penguin didn't give them a chance.

Even if you can't compete with you, you have to lock this product into a small circle.

Clearly, the penguin succeeded.

In the end, YY was really locked in the voice field, and when they developed to a certain extent, they suddenly found that the game had begun to slowly transform towards mobile games, and there were fewer people who went to Internet cafes to play games, especially with the advent of smartphones, and there was no one in Internet cafes.

By this time, YY had already started to go downhill.

No way, YY can't just develop the field of voice, it must be transformed!

But the question is, how do they transform?

It's unrealistic to compete with penguins, and in that case, you can only move to the field of live broadcasting!

I have to say that the founder of YY has a really good vision, and everyone can see how the live broadcast field will develop in the future.

It's just unfortunate that YY did enter in the early stage, but it didn't have strong funds to support it, and it didn't have enough traffic to compete with Kuaijiao and Douyin, and was finally surpassed by both parties.

said a thousand words and ten thousand, there was no capital to support YY, and in the end it was acquired by Du Niang.

Du Niang's traffic is indeed okay, but Du Niang and Ahri penguin are still not as good as the courage, even the founder of the electronic dog is more courageous than the founder of Du Niang, otherwise Du Niang will be surpassed by the Internet field in the case of dominance.

Before 2010, Du Niang was the first company of Huaxia Internet.

Maybe it's also the peak, the founder lost his passion, was surpassed by penguins and Ahri, and it was a transcendence that could never catch up, and in the end Du Niang couldn't even see their taillights.

The defeat to Ahri and Penguin can be said, and it is a little unspeakable to be surpassed by other companies later.

In fact, Zhang Yang can remind the other party in this life, after all, he is the largest shareholder of Du Niang, but after thinking about it, Zhang Yang still gave up this idea.

Even if he reminds him, the other party will not listen.

In this case, there is no need to do useless work, and it will make Lao Li unhappy.

Let him toss, how to Du Niang's stock price is rising steadily, although it is a little slower, but Zhang Yang doesn't care.

He can use Du Niang's traffic to develop YY and other Internet products.

Those Internet bosses who started their own businesses have one characteristic, which is particularly paranoid. Ten cows can't pull back that kind of thing, in other words, without this character, they won't make the enterprise so big.

This is also the reason why Zhang Yang does not plan to mention Lao Li.

There is no need to remind at all, maybe it's not very good, in this case, what the hell is he doing.

"I know, this company seems to be in Yangcheng, so I'll contact you." Saying that, Li Ying turned around and was about to leave.

"Wait."

Li Ying turned to look at Zhang Yang suspiciously.

"Don't let the other party know that it was YY acquired by Huifeng Group, and keep it secret from the media, I don't want the penguins to be guarded." If you want to develop, you must have the same trajectory as YY's previous life, and secretly go into the village to shoot.

Li Ying was stunned for a moment, and then said, "I know." ”

“yy!” Zhang Yang muttered in his heart.

I don't know if YY can compete with penguins in his hands.

In the previous life, YY couldn't compete with penguins in terms of capital or technology, but Zhang Yang was different.

He has hoarded a lot of technical personnel, technical personnel in all fields, the whole of China, all Internet companies together may not be more and more sophisticated than Huifeng Group.

Who doesn't know the whole Huifeng, Zhang Yang pays attention to talents.

In addition to nurturing is digging.

As long as there are technical talents at home and abroad, they will dig with publicity, and dig with high salaries, even penguins are no exception.

Penguin also has a lot of technical talents who have also been poached by Zhang Yang.

Because of this, Brother Xiao Ma scolded Zhang Yang behind his back.

But it's just scolding.

Who in the whole country doesn't know that this guy is hoarding talents, what he wants to do, no one knows, anyway, the talents that can be poached will definitely not be let go.

In order not to be poached, Brother Xiao Ma has no choice but to take out stocks to keep people!

There is no way to do this, otherwise what should I do?

If you can't fight for Huifeng with money, then you can only use stocks to keep people!

But even so, Huifeng still didn't stop prying.

At present, many domestic Internet companies are scolding behind their backs, this guy is too shameless, digging technical talents everywhere, and some companies even hollow out!

Penguin is a monopoly in the field of instant messaging, and it is good to publicize Konyma, and it is good to monopolize the entire Internet of talents.

Relatively speaking, this guy is more hateful.

But there is no recruitment, who makes the family rich, it is so capricious.

Zhang Yang also knew that these guys scolded him behind his back, but where would he care.

Scolding is scolding, and a piece of meat is indispensable, there are more people scolding him every day, 1.8 million have, or the least, if he cares about it, is he still alive?

If 100 million people scolded him, would they kill themselves?

Only mediocre people do not attract scolding.

Therefore, Zhang Yang doesn't care, he still goes his own way.

YY language development for three years, to Zhang Yang here, one year will surpass the other party's three-year process.

He knows in his heart, with a huge R&D team, isn't it a piece of cake for a voice software?

I have known an old book friend for ten years to recommend a book-chasing app,! It's really easy to use, driving, before going to bed rely on this reading aloud to pass the time, you can download it here.. 】

However, at present, if you want to buy YY, I don't know if the other party will sell it.

Now YY is in the R&D stage and shouldn't be worth a few bucks.

Li Ying didn't want to wait for a long time, and in less than two days, the other party agreed to sell YY, and 20 million was packaged and sold by the founder of YY.

It's hard to meet a fool, and it's a fool not to sell.

With these 20 million funds, they can start a business and develop software that is exactly the same as YY, anyway, the other party did not ask them not to try this industry again when they acquired YY.

In that case, why not continue research and development after getting the money?

Well, Zhang Yang and Li Ying ignored this problem before, thinking that after the acquisition, the other party would take the money and go in style.

A project that is being developed and has just been developed, 20 million is already a lot.

Of course, even if he knew what this guy wanted, Zhang Yang wouldn't care, and by 2008, the cucumber dishes were cold.

It is estimated that at that time, their software had been online for two years.

Although the other party has funds, it can't do without technology.

At present, all the top technical talents in Huaxia have been harvested by him to Huifeng.

"Boss, I always feel that these 20 million dollars are a bit of a loss!" Li Ying said with a sigh.

Twenty million to buy a name, the cost is not high.

"No loss, YY, don't you think this domain name is good, on par with penguins?" Zhang Yang smiled indifferently.

20 million to buy a YY domain name, it's really not a loss.

"By the way, put YY in my personal name, so that the attention can be smaller, and it will be hung in Huifeng Group, it is estimated that it will not take a few days to spread to everyone." Zhang Yang said.

"It's already in your name." Li Ying glanced at Zhang Yang charmingly.

"By the way, I'll give you 3% of the shares, and you will run it." Zhang Yang knows very well that in terms of the Internet, he will definitely not be able to catch up with Li Ying, since this is the case, just give her shares, and it will be his sooner or later.

Well, if Li Ying knew what this thing was thinking, he would have the idea of killing him.

This is to get both wealth and sex!

He really wants to have both wealth and sex, which is worse than that Li Kui, but unfortunately she doesn't know what Zhang Yang is thinking.

“ok。” Hearing that Zhang Yang gave her shares again, Li Ying's mood immediately improved.

Who doesn't know that Zhang Yang's paranoia about shares has reached the point of perversion.

Except for the top technicians, no one else wants to get a stake.

And Li Ying became the first existence of Huifeng Group to get shares, and now she has given her shares, does this prove that she is very special in Zhang Yang's heart?

The more she thought about it, the happier she became.

"By the way, YY, when are we going to go online?" Li Ying looked at Zhang Yang and asked.

"R&D for a year, let's go online this time next year."

"Okay, I'll throw YY to the tech department." In the past, only Zhang Yang could be transferred in the technical department, but now Li Ying also has some rights.

After all, Li Ying is a senior executive of the company, and Zhang Yang should appropriately release some rights......
