The next day was Saturday, October 23rd, and the frost fell.

The climate gradually gets colder, from autumn to winter.

Looking at the sunny appearance outside the window, the corners of Fang Nian's mouth rose slightly.

He said: "The weather in southern Fujian is really good, and it's still sunny." ”

Saying that, Fang Nian looked at the other side: "When we meet for the first time, please take care of Ma Dong and Liu Dong." ”

"Mr. Fang is polite, it is a little warmer than Shencheng. Liu Dejian, who was on the side, echoed with a smile.

Ma Jack said with a smile: "I have heard the name of President Fang for a long time, but I didn't expect to meet Dong Liu here." ”

"Hehe~" Li Luobin, who was sitting diagonally across from Fang Nian, also smiled.

The weather is sunny and the mood is generally better.

It's just that Li Luobin really didn't expect that he would wait almost a day in Shencheng to see Fang Nian yesterday afternoon, and he came to Fuzhou today.

What he didn't expect was that Majack sat next to him.

Apparently......

This is Fang Nian's handwriting.

The key reason was the phone call from Jack Ma that Fang Nian received before saying goodbye to Robin Li.

In fact, it was the phone call that Fang Nian made to Lei Jun on the afternoon of October 12.

On the afternoon of October 12, after inspecting the Nuwa System Laboratory and the Frontier Practice Department, Fang Nian finally decided to carry out an operation specifically for 91 Wireless.

So he made a call to Lei Jun, who was far away in the capital.

Let Lei Jun help invest in the company where the pea laboratory in the capital is located: Zhuoyi Xunchang.

At the end of March, the beta version of Wandoupod 1.0 was released.

At the beginning of September, the official version of Wandou Pod 1.0 was released.

At the end of September, Zhuoyi Xunchang was established.

From this process, it is not difficult to see that today, when the 91 assistant almost monopolizes the domestic mobile phone application assistant market, the development of pea pods is not smooth.

It is very likely that it has been affected because of Fang Nian's investment in supporting 91 Wireless.

At least for the time being, it has not been favored by capital.

And it was very difficult to release the official version and set up the company with great difficulty.

Therefore, after the CEO of Zhuoyi Xunchang suddenly saw Lei Jun and learned that Lei Jun was discussing investment as an angel investor, it was a surprise.

Should I say it or not, in the eyes of the founders of this grass-roots Internet technology company, Lei Jun's ranking does not know how high Fang Nian is compared to the frontier angels!

Even though Lei Jun has now left Kingsoft, and Xiaomi is still in a low-key period;

But it still does not affect the mythical image of Lei Jun in the eyes of many people.

Even if there is no Xiaomi's Lei Jun, the past 40 years are still a history of life struggle.

And it's ......

The history of the life struggle of a teenager in a mountain village.

To know......

The Lei Army boss was born in a small county-level city.

It's far worse than Tongfeng.

Of course, it must be much better than the county seat to which Tangli belongs.

So......

The investment was completed on the same day.

This time it's in a slightly overbearing format.

It accounts for 40% of the shares in one go.

However, the comprehensive evaluation gave a fairly superior valuation, with RMB 3.2 million before investment.

You must know that the total number of users of pea pods is only more than 30,000.

At this stage, the value of each user generally does not exceed 20 yuan, and more strictly speaking, it is generally less than 10 yuan.

With a valuation of 3.2 million, 2.15 million was invested, accounting for about 40% of the shares, and the post-investment valuation was 5.35 million.

This is not over, and then used the angel casting method that Fang Nian and Lei Jun have always used -

Privately lent Zhuo Yi Xunchang a small sum of money: 2 million.

With this money, in the form of advertorials, the software of Wandoupod was promoted in an all-round way.

The pea pod, which was favored by the Lei Army, immediately emerged in the circle.

From the 12th to the 21st, when Li Robin couldn't help but come to Shencheng, in less than 10 days, the number of users increased from the original 50,000 to 800,000.

Wandoupod is based on the Android system and does not have the limitations of a user audience.

By the way, yesterday afternoon, Wandoupod took the "mobile assistant" as a starting point and made a Windows version of Wandoupod on the computer, allowing users to download content to their mobile phones through computer bandwidth without using mobile phone traffic.

In just one day, the number of pea pod users exceeded one million.

It's a big hit in the circle.

There are 91 wireless pearls in front, and some investors predict that the valuation of pea pods is tens of millions of dollars.

Of course, on the other hand, the 91 assistant who is in full swing also benefits from this.

This is Fang Nian's operation after a comprehensive analysis, judging Li Robin's tendencies.

The sudden explosion of the pea pod will make the bear factory have more sense of crisis.

As it turned out, he was right in the right direction.

On the other hand, under Fang Nian's instructions, Guan Qiuhe frequently contacted Mr. Hu of 91 Wireless, and the other side had already been with Ali.

And then......

Only then did Majack make this phone call.

Yesterday afternoon, after leaving the World Financial Center, Fang Nian first contacted Liu Dejian and simply persuaded Liu Dejian to accept one more option.

Let's meet.

In view of Mr. Fang's good face, Liu Dejian of course agreed.

Then Fang Nian called back Ma Jack's phone.

A proposal was made to meet in Fuzhou.

Majek readily agreed.

Speaking of which, in the past few years, Majack's wealth and status have not exploded much.

Especially this year, the wealth ranking has plummeted, and the report says that it is less than 8 billion.

or will be far less than Guan Qiuhe, who holds a considerable number of shares in Dangkang Games on the surface.

In addition, Ali's revenue is not too impressive now.

According to reports, Alibaba's total revenue in the first three quarters was only 4 billion, and the net profit margin was only about 25%.

Fang Nian was still thinking about it in his mind at that time, and he didn't know where Kang Game would be able to go a few years later, and he was afraid that it would be time to look up to Ali at that time.

After finalizing the intentions of Liu Dejian and Ma Jack, Fang Nian calmly invited Li Luobin, who was in Shencheng.

Li Robin naturally agreed.

Thereupon......

Only now, on a good Saturday, the four of them are basking in the sun while tasting tea in Fuzhou.

As for why Fang Nian was so active and willing to go so far to Fuzhou.

Very simple......

Anyway, his wife had already decided to go to Luzhou early Saturday morning.

There was nothing to do alone, so Fang Nian simply decided to solve the matter of 91 Wireless in one go, cut through the mess quickly, and no longer drag it out.

Fang Nian is more or less a sharp-eyed person, Li Luobin is willing to wait in Shencheng to see him for a day, this meaning is actually obvious.

Although Fang Nian made excuses.

“......”

The fragrance of tea is overflowing, and the four people from all over the world are very good at cultivating qi, and no one has mentioned serious things.

It's just drinking tea and chattering.

If it's not relatively unfamiliar, the age gap is quite large, and it can somehow get a little taste of old friends reunited.

It's not that anyone is more patient.

It's just a meeting, and it's going to be lunch again.

Gossip, time flies.

Liu Dejian's face was kind, and he said with a smile: "A few bosses came by chance, and the restaurant just happened to have some special game, which is not bad......"

Then he humorously added: "Don't worry, it's not a protected animal." ”

"Looks like noon has a mouthful. Fang Nian laughed.

“......”

............

Under the guidance of Liu Dejian, everyone walked into the booked hotel.

The hotel hall is elegantly decorated and magnificent, which is probably the best one in Fuzhou at present.

Under the guidance of the waiter, I entered the box.

Diametrically opposed to the magnificence of the hall, there is a kind of artificial antiquity.

Inside, it is hard to build a scene of 'small bridges and flowing water'.

The trickle of water is pleasant.

Fang Nian's eyes swept away, and he knew in his heart that the usage fee of this box was not cheap.

Behind the screen should be an independent ancient music performance area.

For example, the guzheng and the like.

There were already people waiting in the box, one was Liu Lu whom Fang Nian had seen, and the other introduced himself as Mr. Hu of 91 Wireless.

The round table was already full of meals.

It can be described as dazzling, without losing the flavor of southern Fujian.

"Mr. Fang, Chairman Li, and Chairman Ma, have a drink?" the host Liu Dejian asked with a smile.

Li Robin and Jack Ma did not refuse.

Fang Nian also knew in his heart, and he didn't make excuses to shirk because he didn't like to drink.

Obviously, this meal was the focus of the trip.

It is inevitable that the matter will be moved to the wine table to talk. 8090

At every level, the wine table culture has always had a special influence in China.

In the words of some wine industry copywriters, wine is an emotional drink.

Fang Nian specially saved this game, and it just needed a little emotion to soften a certain communication 'barrier' between everyone.

Liu Dejian smiled and said, "Mr. Fang, please, taste this game meat, it's rare to see." ”

"A few please. Fang Nian said politely.

“......”

I moved my chopsticks and drank alcohol, and the atmosphere was slightly different from when I first met before.

Harmonious, much more relaxed.

Although the wine on the dinner table was aged high-grade Moutai, everyone did not persuade the wine, and it was mostly meaningful.

At first, he was still gossiping loosely.

Talk about some gossip that is not gossip.

Not surprisingly, the Frontier Institute was mentioned.

For the frontier across the country, it has always been the existence of curiosity of some people.

Even though Robin Lee talked about this topic yesterday, he is still full of interest when he comes again today.

Because......

He hopes to analyze the approach to the truth through Fang Nian's statements that may be different on different occasions.

Of course, Fang Nian knew this.

"Actually, I don't want to hide it from my seniors. ”

Fang Nian smiled lightly.

"Before the Frontier Institute, Frontier first began to invest in Frontier Clubs, which have basically spread to important undergraduate colleges and universities across the country;

The next step will be to set up cutting-edge campus clubs in various places, which is the same reason as the establishment of campus departments organized by Li Dong and Ma Dong's companies, which is to screen talents in advance;

The same is true for the Frontier Institute;

There is no complicated reason, because this year alone, the talent recruitment gap of Dangkang and Frontier is as high as 5,000. ”

At the end, Fang Nian said with emotion: "It's easy to recruit people, but it's difficult to recruit talents." ”

Fang Nian really didn't hide it from a few people.

The purpose of the frontier club and the frontier institute is to gather talents and screen out suitable talents in the most peaceful way.

As for what the selected talents are for.

Fang Nian will not easily explain it to the outside world.

The club is aimed at talents at the undergraduate level, and the Frontier Institute is aimed at talents at all graduate levels.

It's as simple as that.

Hearing Fang Nian say this, Ma Jack's face turned solemn: "Listening to Mr. Fang's words, I suddenly felt that I was very different from you." ”

"Although these investments are made to gather talents, they will definitely lead to the innovation of the overall academic quality, which is really admirable!"

Li Robin deeply agreed: "The frontier sowed seeds this year, and in the next ten Chinese New Year's Eve or twenty years, there will be a steady stream of people who will benefit from it, no wonder Fang always likes to talk about it." ”

"When the float is white. Liu Dejian was more direct.

Broadly speaking, cutting-edge operations do have a constant impact, and people continue to benefit from it.

Although now it is only a clustering effect.

But in a way, the change started at the root.

It will definitely have an impact on the overall education landscape slowly.

Standing at the level of Li Robin and Ma Jack, they have long had their own views on some things, and even the gap between Chinese and foreign education at some levels.

Although Fang Nian did not give an in-depth introduction to the operation mode of the Frontier Academy, they could still see something.

It is precisely because this kind of behavior is idealized that they will not choose at this stage at all, so they will admire Fang Nian very much.

Of course, if Fang Nian knew that Ma Jack and they thought so in their hearts, he would definitely be unable to help but beep Lai:

Majack, don't think that you are not the richest man now, and you are not so good at pretending, so you cringe.

From now on, you will be a self-proclaimed village teacher.

I also run my own university!

hetui！

“......”

With the frontier institute as an incision, the topic was immediately discussed.

After a while, the conversation shifted to business.

Liu Dejian smiled and said unhurriedly: "The development of NetDragon has been relatively conservative in recent years, that is my style, in fact, I hope 91 can be a little more radical." ”

"We weren't good at branding, so the development of 91 quickly ushered in various challenges......"

"If it weren't for Mr. Fang's action, 91 would still be cleaning up the mess now......"

“......”

Liu Dejian said it more implicitly, and the meaning inside was relatively clear.

He has some ideas of his own for 91.

There wasn't much desire to sell.

At the same time, this is also the reason why 91 has been piling up a messy function in recent months.

Mr. Hu took over Liu Dejian's words: "Liu Dong's needs are very accurate, although it seems that the 91 product series is chaotic, but I think this is everyone's different perception of the world." ”

"In the early stage of development, the product is diversified and the function is huge, which is not a bad thing, and it can form a relatively good ecological ...... under a certain constraint."

Listening to Liu Dejian and Mr. Hu finish talking one after another, Ma Jack groaned and spoke: "The layout of 91 is a little chaotic, and it shouldn't be very easy to contain." ”

"I don't think so. Li Robin said eloquently, "More products don't mean that they can't be refined." ”

"Especially now, it can be called the first year of China's mobile Internet, and users' demand for mobile phone applications will usher in a surge......"

"I think that at this time, it is the most important thing to cast a wide net, and Liu Dong is indeed one step ahead in terms of demand. ”

“......”

Liu Dejian waved his hand: "No, no, if Chairman Li has paid attention to the report, he will know that in fact, the media is generally not optimistic about 91, and even more optimistic about the new pea pod." ”

Liu Lu pursed his lips: "As Li Dong said, now is the starting point of the outbreak of the mobile Internet, and it is really difficult to say that it is the situation of Ali." ”

“......”

Fang Nian was almost a bystander.

There were six people seated at this table, and everyone had a different idea.

Even Liu Lu and Liu Dejian are not the same idea.

The most important thing is that Liu Dejian's meaning of three times and twice is actually relatively clear.

He thinks......

After several months of rapid development, 91 Wireless has accumulated strength, and there is no shortage of cash flow, and it may be able to develop further.

There is little appetite for the sale of 91 wireless.

Hu always wants to be sold, invisibly raising the value of 91.

Majack is a habitual business vision, quietly pressing prices.

Li Robin's mind can be said to be indomitable, and it means that he is bound to win.

He was in a hurry.

The more people there are, the more they will be able to achieve their goals.

It is also easier to expose some kind of embarrassing situation in the bear factory in the process.

Such as......

The layout of the bear factory on the mobile Internet is equal to nothing.

The goose factory has a QQ mobile version, continuing the glory of the PC era.

Ali has launched mobile Taobao client and mobile Alipay client, etc., and continues to deepen its cultivation in the field of mobile online shopping.

Known as the three poles of China's Internet, the bear factory has laid out a lonely layout in the mobile Internet.

This year, China's Internet industry has been overwhelmed with changes.

The Red Goose War, which ended abruptly......

'Nuwa' system ......

Mi Chat ......

And so on and so forth, all of this made the bear factory not react.

Especially at the end of the Red Goose War, Marpelly's attitude suddenly changed 180°, and he somewhat backstabbed the participant Bear Factory.

Under the countless factors, the bear factory urgently needs 91 Wireless, a company with mature market operation and a team running-in in place, to make up for the shortcomings of the bear factory......

As for Fang Nian, from beginning to end, he didn't show his tendencies to the outside world.

It's just that it is believed that the frontier lacks funds, so it will sell the shares of 91 Wireless.

But the frontier has not been idle at all this month, at least Li Robin knows that the frontier courtyard in Luzhou has already started construction.

Li Robin knew more clearly that Fang Nian's attitude towards his phone call on September 30 could not have been unavoided.

But Fang Nian didn't do anything.

This invisibly broke the rumor they thought that Fang Nian wanted to sell the shares of 91 Wireless.

Listening to everyone's ordinary words, Fang Nian analyzed everyone's thoughts.

I muttered in my heart:

It's not buying and selling that catches up.

It's big business.

“......”

As the topic deepened, Fang Nian inevitably participated.

"I just hope that everyone will sit down and talk openly and honestly, whether they cooperate or not, it will not affect everyone to have a reason to sit down, chat, drink, and make friends. ”

As he spoke, Fang Nian smiled.

"Li Dong is very sincere and has looked for me several times in a row. ”

"If we can talk about an outcome that everyone is happy with, I'm happy to see it happen. ”

There is no meaning in or out of the words.

This made Robin Li frown.

It's just a matter of having Majack to join in the fun, why don't the two main owners have any meaning?

Could it be that running such a big lap from Beijing to Shencheng and then to Fuzhou is to make it lonely?
