Chapter five hundred and sixty-two insist and give up
The party held in the company is naturally not much higher in style, but compared to the style, the pragmatic Americans prefer lively.
As long as it is a place that is still accessible, it is best to have audio and DJs, it doesn’t matter if you have some cold meals or not. The key is to have wine, so a group of people can have fun and have fun.
So this night, Michael Moretz and John Dull, didn't spend much money.
But the effect is really good.
The engineers who worked overtime to develop new products a while ago, and the employees of the business and management systems who were busy in the past few months and were busy for the listing, enjoyed this evening very much.
There were many guys holding wine glasses everywhere, gathering together and laughing loudly, and dancing with the music. Although the title of Google's No. 1 Beauty is still Mayer, there are still many beautiful and moving figures on the scene.
Google is not the most awesome Google later. This is a party that makes everyone happy and does not restrict the identity of the participants. Not only are many employees bringing their boyfriends and girlfriends, like all other American parties, there are always some guys who are keen on various parties who come uninvited after hearing the news.
Among these people who are keen on gatherings, there are really many girls with at least excellent appearance.
Feng Yiping listened to the restless music, looked at the red men and green women, and looked at the guys who left the stage in pairs, and couldn't help but feel a little envious. How many opportunities can this party tonight have for a romantic encounter?
But no matter how many, this matter is naturally no match for him at this time.
After all, it’s someone who already has children, so don’t think it’s too much trouble?
Another reason why it cannot be said is that many of the rich people who are self-reliant and well-known like him must consider financial risks in many behaviors.
What I fear most is that you think it is ONS, but after dawn, the other party will not break up and will not say goodbye.
David and Andrew were worried about selling Google's stock and eventually becoming Google's shareholders. Feng Yiping was also worried that similar affair would become a burden that could not be removed - this is by no means an unforgettable worry.
So, just envy it like this! So, it’s still the second generation’s happiness!
"What are you thinking?" Page came over with a bottle of beer and ran into him.
"I'm thinking about something we have to give up," Feng Yiping said.
"Give up because of persistence," Page leaned against the wall of the aisle and drank a big sip of beer. "I think our persistence will definitely make sense in the end,"
Well, he was wrongly guessing what Feng Yiping said about giving up, what is giving up?
Feng Yiping naturally would not correct it, "Do you agree to say so?"
"Agree," Page nodded.
"You have to know what it means to agree to this matter," Feng Yiping reminded him.
“I understand that this means we recognize its industry leadership in Chinese search engines,” Page said. “Although I don’t agree with some of its practices, it is indeed the case. It has already dominated the search field in China.”
What they are talking about is naturally the investment in Du Niang that has come to an end.
"The main responsibility lies with us. We have not paid enough attention to the Chinese search business before and have not listened to your advice," Page said.
Feng Yiping said sincerely that it is mainly because my suggestions are not strong enough.
But this is also one of the things he has to give up on.
In fact, Google launched a Chinese search engine earlier than Du Niang. When Du Niang was founded, Google has become the world's largest search engine.
In terms of technology, talents and financial resources, they have more advantages than Du Niang who started her business.
The four main indicators of search technology: page response speed, correlation, index volume, and content update frequency, which was also in the lead at that time.
However, its focus is more on Europe and the United States, and its investment in Chinese search is not enough. For the Chinese market, it has only done some processing based on English search engines.
For a long time, there were less than 10 people in total in the team responsible for Chinese search.
Also, it should be the arrogance of large European and American companies. Before the capital Jiasheng Business Center was put into use this year, Google did not send a single person in China, let alone did not promote it. Just like in the United States, it relies on the word-of-mouth spread of users to attract new users.
The Seven Swordsmen of the Duniang successfully identified Google's weaknesses and carried out a series of successful business operations.
For example, the "Lightning Project" and the "Ten Thousand People Beta,"
That is, in June last year, the public beta of "Two major search engines showdown at the top of search" initiated by Computer Education News.
Because Du Niang is the organizer of the public beta, and it is equivalent to both an athlete and a referee. The final result announced is naturally beneficial to it: among the 10,015 users who participated in the evaluation, 55% thought that Du Niang was good, 10% thought that the two companies were similar, and the remaining 35% thought that Google’s was better.
Computer Education News is an influential domestic media. The results of the events it holds are undoubtedly authoritative for domestic netizens.
And its readers are computer enthusiasts, and they often use search engines, which will affect many people...
In short, there are many similar methods, but the result is that Baidu successfully learned Google's approach and left a good reputation among netizens.
Feng Yiping has been paying attention to these things. The problem is that if he strongly suggests Google to take strong measures accordingly, it is not very likely, but it is definitely not the result today.
Google, which had the advantage in all aspects before, will continue to maintain and expand its advantages.
But he finally chose to give up and ignore him, which was more of a personal emotional reason.
How to say it, in the final analysis, from a higher level, no matter how bad it is, it is at least his own - it can only be said that in many cases, he is really not a qualified businessman.
Of course, he is now working so hard to get Google to enter the country, which seems to be a tutor. In fact, it is also to allow the other party to try his best to go on the road of goodness and truly "not forgetting his original intention."
At this time, Bolling also left his girlfriend and walked over. Then, Schmidt also pulled away from the crowd - mainly beautiful women, and came over.
"From a strategic perspective, ignoring the Chinese market is indeed our biggest mistake." I don't know what happened, but Feng Yiping has always felt that some of Schmidt's words seem to be vaguely directed at him.
For example, you should know that since joining Google, Feng Yiping has been Google's strategic director.
Bryn also felt it and immediately said, "Fortunately it's not too late, and Feng is already working hard to create an advantage for us,"
What he said includes Feng Yiping obtaining a domestic ICP license for Google, establishing a Chinese company, and promoting this investment in Du Niang... and many other aspects.
In the past, Google also sought to invest in Du Niang on the eve of its listing, naturally to make its performance better.
But this time, Feng Yiping did this before.
As for why Baidu agreed to the investment of this biggest competitor, in addition to Feng Yiping's personal reasons, it is actually the same as Feng Yiping accepted investment from American venture capital before Yijia went public, and it was also for listing.
Accepting Google's investments means Google's recognition of it, which is very helpful in convincing American investors.
"Just, some of the actions of that opponent," Bryn shook his head.
"They always have to bear the consequences in the future," Schmidt said.
Fortunately, he did not target Feng Yiping this time.
Because what they said this time really left Feng Yiping with nothing to say.
Why did they lose from a comprehensive dominance in the Chinese market? Recently, they have produced a very comprehensive report.
In addition to the lag in business operations mentioned by Feng Yiping, it is also closely related to some of Google's own insistence.
Page insists that the "no evil" clause should be written in this prospectus. Well, although the final facts prove that Google may not be able to do this in all aspects, objectively speaking, it really makes fewer mistakes, and sometimes it just admits the truth.
In Chinese search engines, Google's failure to insist on MP3 search is one of the reasons why it lags behind Baidu.
From the hot sale of Apple's iPod, you can see how popular the MP3 is. In China, MP3 has become a replacement for walkman and CD phones, and has become one of the must-have digital products for many people.
Du Niang launched the MP3 search as early as the second half of 2002, which is very good to meet the needs of many people. You can download the songs you want to listen to from the Internet without spending a penny.
This technology is actually not difficult. It seems that the Baiduin developed it with only two people, but the impact is very large, and it can even be said to be the key to surpassing Google's market share.
A person occasionally uses Baidu's MP3 search, oh, good stuff, he may recommend it to his colleagues around him.
This is word of mouth spread, and Du Niang's MP3 search quickly became famous.
Naturally, after using its MP3 search, you will definitely use its other searches.
Then, many people will think: It turns out that the Baidu girl can search for anything!
But Google can't search songs at least - they can't stick to this project, so why use your Google?
"This, the national conditions are really different. In many Asian countries, singers have famous songs and fame, their record sales revenue really only accounts for a small part of their income, and they don't care so much," Feng Yiping could only explain this way.
“I believe that in the long run, as a company that does good for the world, we will get better feedback – even if we are going to give up some short-term gains,” Page said.
"I agree very much," Feng Yiping nodded.
