Reinventing the Millennium.

Chapter 744
Fang Zhuo's visit to Xiaonei.com was the official signal of its war with QQ alumni.

Web servers suddenly became rich.

Recruitment, which had been stalled for more than a month, resumed.

The operation and content team from Sina will settle in the early stage.

Intensive discussions are underway on the network marketing and promotion plan of Xiaonei.

Although the original Xiaonei executives were a little uncomfortable with the unfamiliar situation in front of them, the founder Wang Xing welcomed it, thinking that this was a fast track for the website to go in the right direction.

However, he also maintained his persistence in some major strategies.

Wang Gaofei, one of the people in charge of Sina, was very dissatisfied with this, and the two argued several times, and finally brought this matter to Mr. Fang.

The dispute is not complicated.

Wang Gaofei and others believe that Xiaonei.com can generate blood as soon as possible, and develop and generate revenue simultaneously. At the very least, it can increase the traditional Internet advertising revenue business.

Wang Xing believes that the current situation does not need to consider income for the time being. Development is the main or even the only goal during this period. Xiaonei must survive the competition with Penguin.

Documents were written on both sides, and both were used in Sina's internal discussion meetings.

Since Fang Zhuo came to the capital, in addition to listening to the Sina blog business and meeting the person in charge of the mail business who was included under his command, he also inevitably met with the relevant leaders because of the dispute over the station record.

The last time Tai Kee made a move against SMIC, the final reconciliation involved many administrative factors.

Unexpectedly, after Tai Ji changed the management this time, the other party would tear up the settlement agreement in a rude and unreasonable manner, as if he would not give up until he reached his goal.

On the occasion of this special situation, ice cores, which have received many preferential policies and have the meaning of filing, are becoming more and more present at some levels.

Although I don't know what direction the dispute between Taiji and SMIC will take this time, the words "prepared for any danger" have become more and more solid in Bingxin.

Fang Zhuo listened to Sina, met leaders, and met friends in the capital. After a while, he still focused on Sina and Xiaonei this time, and he hosted meetings again and again.

Although it was an internal meeting of Sina, the appearance of Wang Xing in the meeting room did not surprise too many people.

Everyone knows the recent friction with Penguin, and it is also clear that the most violent conflict lies in social networks. Others such as portals and e-commerce are much milder due to various factors.

Sina internally knew that a group of colleagues had been transferred to Xiaonei.com, and knew that Xiaonei.com would receive important investment under Mr. Fang’s leadership and compete. They summed up the situation on Xiaonei.com this time as “Mr. Fang’s proxy battle.”

As an aid worker, Wang Gaofei is still very confident in his report.

However, when the meeting progressed to discuss the development strategy of Xiaonei, he watched Mr. Fang open his file and frowned.

Wang Gaofei's heart tightened.

"Who wrote this? Oh, I see."

Wang Gaofei was ready to stand up and make a statement, but he was not named.

Fang Zhuo quickly picked up another document, first looked at the conclusion, then the reason, and finally the signature, this one was from Wang Xing.

He directly made a decision without hesitation: "Competing for users and expanding the scale, revenue is not considered at this stage."

Wang Xing came to the meeting today, and he also made considerable psychological preparations. Although Xiaonei.com will implement AB shares to guarantee decision-making power, AB shares are not a panacea. Sina's mature team, investment from several institutions, and follow-up intentions , which can have substantial impacts to a great extent.

However, Wang Xing was also not named, and he also did not have the opportunity to state his more specific considerations.

He watched Mr. Fang finish speaking, and there seemed to be only one option in the conference room. It seemed that Wang Gaofei had no strong suggestions at all before, and the strategy was decided with one word.

But the atmosphere of the meeting was not rigid. After Fang Zhuo finished speaking, he naturally moved the topic to "competing for users" and "expanding scale". Everyone, including Wang Gaofei, actively contributed ideas and suggestions. revenue problem".

Wang Xing felt that it was both weird and weird with some logic.

Compared with the meeting he attended in Shencheng Yike, the other party's general attitude here seems to be more... more convincing.

This is the first meeting that Wang Xing participated in at Sina. When the meeting ended in the evening, he was unexpectedly left behind to accept an interview from Sina portal. Accept the communication under the camera together.

To be honest, Wang Xing has occasionally thought about similar topics, but he has neither a system nor experience in facing the media.

After he sat down, he was a little apprehensive: "Mr. Fang, do you have any scripts for questions?"

"You can answer whatever you want, don't worry, the main thing is to cut my content, I'm here to advocate the emergence of an oriental-style Facebook in China, and be optimistic about the meaning and prospects of this social network." Fang Zhuo calmly comforted .

Wang Xing was indeed comforted, he was a nobody and would not attract any attention.

However, Mr. Fang's words are also very interesting, advocating...

Based on the attention Mr. Fang can attract in the Internet industry, will the judgment given by him in this interview arouse more intense competition between QQ alumni and Xiaonei.com?

Wang Xing soon witnessed Mr. Fang's advocacy.

Let me talk about the great development of this social network in the future.

Second, this Oriental Facebook is at least not inferior to Sina's market capitalization achievements.

Three said that the traffic on the Internet will gradually be divided and disintegrated due to the flourishing of the industry.

Wang Xing heard the meaning behind the words, Eastern Facebook is going to hit the traffic occupied by Penguin?

can you?won't you?

Anyway, Mr. Fang said everything with a straight line, and he was very serious.

After thinking about it for a while, Wang Xing felt that his confidence had been boosted, and after seeing the reactions of various people after the exposure of this interview, he further knew Fang Zong's influence in the industry.

Many people, including many executives, are not thinking about judging whether Mr. Fang's words are correct or not, but are making footnotes for Mr. Fang's actions.

——It’s no wonder Mr. Fang led the vote for Xiaonei. It turns out that social networking has such a bright future.

——No wonder it seems that 5Q.com, Zhanzao.com, QQ Alumni, Xiaonei.com have appeared overnight... The competition seems to be fierce, and risks and benefits coexist.

Just as Fang Zhuo's judgment that "a large oriental Facebook-like enterprise will appear in China" spread, Penguin and Thousand Oaks had not responded yet, and Sequoia Capital's first called.

Zheng Lang, vice president of Sequoia Capital, and Mr. Fang are old acquaintances, and they complained on the phone: "Mr. Fang, last time you asked about the situation of Xiaonei, I told you the truth, and I also told the truth that we will Switch to Zhanzao.com.”

"That's good for you. You don't leak a word. You said at the time that you were going to vote in the school. Sequoia Capital wouldn't be so embarrassing, would it?"

Fang Zhuo apologized slightly: "Mr. Zheng, I hadn't made a decision at the time, and it was only after a series of changes that I made my decision."

Zheng Lang complained: "If you have the determination to 'be a penguin', right?"

Fang Zhuo: "Huh?"

Zheng Lang didn't explain this sentence.

"Just be a penguin", the corporate culture spread on Xiaonei.com was just a joke at first. Some people saw this word in the president's office of Xiaonei.com and privately laughed at Wang Xing's arrogance and arrogance.

However, once you know that this is Mr. Fang's inscription, you will feel unrestrained and full of anger when you look at this word again.

Fang Zhuo was not surprised that these four words were spread, since he wrote them, he was not afraid of them.

He thought about it for a while, and felt that the changes before and after were really not beneficial to Sequoia Capital. He sincerely suggested: "Mr. With so much power to speak, it’s better to promote the sale to Xiaonei.”

Zheng Lang pondered for a moment, a little moved: "What price?"

"$600 million, buy it now," Fang Zhuo said.

Zheng Lang was surprised and said: "It's low, it's low, I just invested 500 million."

"You only invested 500 million, how can you compare with us, how can you compare with Penguin? If you have the determination to continue chasing and investing 5000 million, then ignore me." Fang Zhuo persuaded, "Big giants enter the market, Zhanzuowang is not It's fun."

Zheng Lang pondered again, and said slowly: "Mr. Fang, the prospect of social network is very good. There will be an oriental Facebook in China. The entry of giants proves that this track is very good. Zhanzuo.com has already built a very good team. You have dreams and know the pain points of users. To be honest, even if you are acquired, your price is really not good, and we can still go to Penguin."

Just as Fang Zhuo was about to speak, he suddenly felt that the words were familiar.

He said decisively: "Then go find the penguins."

Immediately, Fang Zhuo ended the call.

Zheng Lang immediately called again, complaining: "Mr. Fang, why don't you give me space at all?"

"One price." Fang Zhuo reiterated.

Zheng Lang continued to talk about the reasons, which were still nothing more than "big vision", "bright future" and "that's how you fucking talked to venture capitalists back then".

"Mr. Zheng, can you be the master of Zhanzuo.com? If you can, I will add another 100 million for the sake of your surrender before a fight and the background of Zhang Fan, a team of Zhanzuo.com. The whole team must have been dragged to the campus network." Fang Zhuo was still relieved.

"It's been bad luck for eight lifetimes, and it's bad luck for Zhang Fan to run Zhanzao.com and meet you and Penguin." Zheng Lang complained, and finally bargained, "As far as our friendship is concerned, you really don't think about it at all?"

Fang Zhuo said succinctly: "Now it is 650 million."

Zheng Lang said decisively: "700 million is 700 million. I will go to Zhang Fan to complain about my interests and wait for my good news."

Fang Zhuo put down the phone.

He also didn't expect Zhanzuo.com or Sequoia Capital's will to resist would be so weak.

As for the Zhang Fan team with considerable background and ability, they can actually try to use it to prepare for the "happy network" of Xiaonei.

In just two days, Sequoia Capital has completed the work of the management of Zhanzuo.com, don’t be ambiguous, and invest as soon as it is necessary.

Do you really think that everyone is a king star, so lucky to meet Mr. Fang?
Moreover, Wang Xing was facing the entry of penguins at that time.

Zhanzuo.com is now facing the entry of Penguin + Fang Zong.

Vote, vote, it's easy to vote early.
