Chapter 67: The Rise and Fall of Yahoo
Yuan Liang had never planned to hide it, and now that Zhang Shuxin had noticed it, he no longer had the need to be subtle.
"Senior sister's planning company is in Yanjing, right?"
Zhang Shuxin nodded.
Yuan Liang continued, "I don't know if Senior Sister plans to make the planning company bigger, or come to the United States to find other projects suitable for development in China?" ”
"You don't look down on my Skytree plan?" Although there was a guess in his heart, when Yuan Liang brought it up, Zhang Shuxin was still a little surprised.
"Senior sister has been planning events for so long, and no one knows what the ceiling of the planning company is. Instead of relying on the activities of some departments and units, why don't you think about doing something challenging? ”
Zhang Shuxin's Tianshu plan may be lofty in the eyes of outsiders, but in Yuan Liang's view, it is a business that relies on relationships. Tianshu Planning is mainly engaged in the planning of some activities related to diplomacy, and it is precisely by relying on the relationship between Science Daily and the Chinese Academy of Sciences that Zhang Shuxin and his wife have made Tianshu Planning sound and impressive.
Being so belittled by Yuan Liang, Zhang Shuxin was not angry, but looked at Yuan Liang with a questioning expression.
"Software and computers are indeed very challenging, but now even China is in a uproar, and even Lenovo, which is backed by the Chinese Academy of Sciences, has hesitated to choose, I really don't know where you got your confidence."
Yuan Liang shook his head, "Domestic affairs can only be regarded as a strategic choice for Lianxiang, Mr. Liu is a businessman, and he has to be responsible for Lianxiang's employees." And Ni Lao's choice is undoubtedly to make even those who want to gamble their lives on it, and anyone will hesitate. ”
Except, of course, Mr. Ren.
"And Kunlun technology is different, I just said, whether it is financial software or VCD, and even these investments in the United States, I am just to make money and cultivate talents, money and talents are the most essential competitiveness of Kunlun technology.
If one day I really can't hold on, I will also find a way to find a way out for these people in the company, including my senior sister. ”
Zhang Shuxin was suddenly stunned, the indomitable courage of the big boy in front of her was something she had never seen in any entrepreneur in China.
"Kunlun Technology is your own?"
"There's a partner, but he can't interfere with my decision." Yuan Liang said very firmly, now it is not Li Jianfang who is electing him, but he is choosing Li Jianfang.
"So what are you going to do? The talents cultivated by VCD and financial software alone can't reach the heights you aspire to, right? ”
Yuan Liang nodded, "I have been thinking about this issue before I came, there is basically no technical precipitation in the field of science and technology in China, and the breakthrough can only be placed abroad."
But after all, I'm only a freshman student, and I don't know much about life in the United States, let alone any connections, so the identity of my senior sister is particularly important to me.
If I don't meet Senior Sister, I can only let Senior Brother Tian and them open up the situation step by step, so that it will be difficult to get in touch with many people who have ideas in the field of emerging technology. ”
Although Tian Hui is a little smart, because of his age, his contact area is far from being as wide as Zhang Shuxin's.
Zhang Shuxin's experience at USTC made her feel like a big sister. At the beginning of Yinghaiweicao's creation, she was able to bring more than a dozen high-achieving students studying in the United States.
"Even if you have access to people in this area, how can you be sure that they're right?"
"Casting a wide net and catching big fish, although I can't be sure whether their ideas are useful, but Kunlun Technology has a direction and will not change. The development of semiconductor chips has always revolved around people's lives. Electronic products such as communication and entertainment are the focus of future scientific and technological development. ”
"What about the network navigation that your Senior Brother Tian said?"
"This is a general direction derived from the development of computers, and the future development of the network is likely to change people's current lifestyle.
Senior sister might wish to think about it, if computers and even hand-held phones can realize the communication of everyone in the future, and people can browse the news and video calls on their mobile phones, what will our lives be like?
The development of China in this area is lagging behind, but I obviously see such a big direction, I can't be indifferent, right? ”
"Can it really grow to the way you say it is?" Zhang Shuxin couldn't imagine it at all.
Yuan Liang nodded without hesitation, "I'm afraid these technologies have been realized in some laboratories of the US imperialists, but due to the current level of scientific and technological development, they are far from reaching the point of popularization." But I believe that day will not be too far away, and Mr. Moore will take us in that direction.
From this direction, if you push back the network navigation that Senior Brother Tian said, Senior Sister should understand how important information navigation is in this field.
If we don't do it now, when foreign countries are completely mature in the field of technology, it will be countless times more difficult for us to bypass the high patent pool than now. ”
The development of high technology is a slow step, a slow step.
Zhang Shuxin didn't answer for a long time, it's not that she doesn't understand what Yuan Liang said, it's just that she is also not a practitioner in the professional field, and she doesn't know anything about these things, so she has no confidence.
"I don't know much about this, so I'm afraid I won't be able to help you."
"The helmsman's job is to know the course, and I'm a layman too. As long as you want to come, any position in Kunlun Technology is up to you. ”
Facing Yuan Liang's atmosphere, Zhang Shuxin shook his head awkwardly.
"Hearing you say that, I'm not interested in my next expedition, so you can wait for me to think about it. During this time, I will try to help you contact your classmates here at Stanford, and I will talk about it after I get to know it first. ”
Zhang Shuxin did not agree or refuse, the most important point is because Kunlun Technology has no foundation in China.
"It's okay, if Senior Sister doesn't determine the direction, she will walk around here first, maybe there will be a direction as she strolls?"
Although the construction of the U.S. imperialist information highway has begun, after all, the penetration rate is not high, and Zhang Shuxin has not had time to contact the U.S. imperialists when he first came to the United States.
Zhang Shuxin smiled and did not respond, but changed the topic, "By the way, since you are so optimistic about network navigation, then you will invest in the company that your Senior Brother Tian said?" ”
"It depends on the situation, the vision of students who start a business in Silicon Valley is not narrow, so when the time comes, let's listen to their thoughts, and if my sister is interested, let's go together?"
"It's good to go and see it, I've heard the story of Apple Garage entrepreneurship many times, and I want to see it too."
Yuan Liang suddenly remembered the rise and fall of Yahoo.
Google doesn't do anything in the face of a million, and hesitates in the face of a billion-dollar Facebook. Although Yahoo was the trendsetter of the Internet bubble era, its own positioning has always been very vague, constantly moving in the two directions of the Internet and technology, and finally led to the accumulation of difficulties and finally sold to Bayern for four billion dollars.
It could have been the only giant that it would have taken the lead!
