Reinventing the Millennium.

Chapter 958 Future Development (4k)

Eight years is enough time to change a lot.

From the perspective and narrative of the head of Yike, these eight years have gone from one crisis to another.

Then, continue to look at the challenges that may arise in the next eight years, or in other words, the bad cards drawn, and the emerging crises.

At such an annual meeting, many people in the World Financial Center felt that this was a routine reminder from Mr. Fang's position. There are developments, of course there are challenges, and there are good and bad.

Leadership, always needs pros and cons, and always needs a strategic view.

However, as Mr. Fang's pause lengthened... oh, I need to applaud.

There was applause again in the conference center.

However, there was still a pause after the applause, Mr. Fang's eyes were also very serious, the atmosphere of the scene suddenly became solemn, and many people quietly adjusted their relaxed sitting postures.

"Today is a rare opportunity, and I can also say something from my heart."

Fang Zhuo was about to speak his mind.

He didn't pause on purpose, but said a few words temporarily without preparation, and he needed to organize his words in his mind when he got a little excited.

"What kind of company do you think Yike is now?"

Fang Zhuo asked himself and answered: "In my opinion, it is a fairly good company."

"Yike has a good-scale R&D center in Silicon Valley and Shanghai, has obtained a good number of users in the mobile phone market, and has a good cash flow on the company's books."

"Of course it was good, but Lehman, which has gone bankrupt, was also very good. When we made our own music players, Sony was not good at that time. It is simply great on this track."

"I have always been good friends with Luo from Qimonda, a major storage manufacturer, but Qimonda has also filed for bankruptcy. It has achieved a global market share of more than 10%. Isn't it good to do this? In my opinion, It’s simply overwhelming.”

"There is also its parent company, Infineon, whose market value was tens of billions of dollars before, but now it is only more than 30 billion dollars."

"Lehman, Merrill Lynch, Sony, Qimonda, Infineon and other companies, they can all be described as 'good' or even 'very good', 'excellent' and 'great' at a certain point, but..."

Fang Zhuo spread his hands: "The wind is always blown away by the rain."

"Infineon was spun off from Siemens in 1999, and Qimonda was spun off from Infineon in 2006. How many eight years are their histories?"

"The impact of the financial crisis is bound to be long-lasting, and what is happening this year will be a nightmare for many CEOs."

"Eco has been established for eight years. In the next eight years, will we be a bankrupt Qimonda or a struggling Sony?"

"Eight years, the time has passed."

"Yike has just exchanged the sunshine and rain for some growth. I know that many friends here have more or less bonuses, options, and some even have wealth."

"I just hope that in the next eight years of passing time, everyone will not let themselves down, don't let down the golden period of development, don't look back and regret after eight years, don't stand on a certain stage and share sadly at that time-I thought we were Yi Ke, I didn’t expect that we were just another Lehman and Qimonda.”

Fang Zhuo scanned the audience again and again for the last time: "I know it's hard to keep improving, but this is the same sentence, Making Progress."

He gave the first smile after taking the stage: "Keep improving, thank you everyone."

Mr. Fang's speech is over, no matter whether it is suitable for the occasion or what mood he is in, the conference center of the World Financial Center burst into applause.

The boss is always sincere, and this speech is still sincere.

Just when Fang Zhuo put down the microphone, Xiong Xiaoge who was sitting in the first row winked at Su Wei, "Come on, Mr. Su, come on, Mr. Su, we agreed!"You are the first to ask a question!

Xiong Xiaoge's wink didn't take effect, and even his soft cry was drowned in the applause.

He knew immediately what was going on.

broken!Mr. Su was mesmerized!
Seeing that Mr. Fang had already walked off the stage, Xiong Xiaoge felt that he couldn't wait any longer, and finally took the opportunity, and he didn't know when the next time would be.

He took the initiative to stand up amidst the applause, stepped forward quickly, grabbed Mr. Fang's arm to prevent him from stepping down, and said cheerfully: "Mr. Fang, Mr. Fang, today is the eight-year annual meeting of Yike. I am so happy. It’s also really emotional.”

Fang Zhuo stopped in his tracks, wondering why the old bear got so excited.

Su Wei, sitting in the first row, has been staring at Mr. Fang without blinking since he came to the stage. Hearing Yike's eight years of experience, this man obviously didn't prepare, and obviously only said a few words , but talked so much so logically.

Otherwise, let it be like this, let this man walk down in such a graceful manner.

But when she saw Mr. Xiong on stage, she immediately woke up.

broken!Boss Xiong left alone!

Su Wei also got up, and the next moment, she saw Mr. Fang patted Mr. Xiong's arm back, but she had already chatted, so she could only sit down again.

"In the eight years of Yike, Mr. Xiong invested in Yike's angel round at the beginning. He and Mr. Xu invested in us on the CCTV platform." Fang Zhuo smiled and opened up the glorious history for the colleagues and guests present, "There is no such thing as Mr. Xiong. There is no Yike now."

He applauded first, leading to a round of applause for the old bear.

Xiong Xiaoge and Mr. Fang shook hands heavily on the stage, leaving a commemorative image on this occasion, and then said: "Mr. Fang, it is rare to have such an emotional communication occasion. The Internet eight years ago People in the bubble are panicking, and the financial crisis broke out last year, and now I also have a question to ask you."

Fang Zhuo glanced at the impromptu old Xiong, but he didn't take it too seriously. He nodded and greeted the audience: "Mr. Xiong is going to give Yi Ke a lesson."

"No." Xiong Xiaoge waved his hand and asked, "As an investor, I often feel that I am separated from you business people. What I love most is your heartfelt thoughts. Today is a rare opportunity. I won't ask you what you think about the company's operation, but I'm a little curious, Yike has been here for eight years, or, Mr. Fang, what do you think of your competitors over the years?"

He continued: "Sometimes the outside world will spread rumors that you have a bad relationship with Dangdang's Mr. Li, and that you and Penguin's horse have concluded a feud. How do you evaluate your business methods in the past few years?"

Competitors and Business Practices.

Xiong Xiaoge asked two questions.

Fang Zhuo's first reaction after hearing this was, what's there to talk about?
But he glanced at the excited expression of the old bear, and decided to follow him once.

"Fortunately, there is no media today, otherwise I don't know how to write." Fang Zhuo said something relaxed first, and then smiled, "I think I was too serious just now, and Mr. Xiong came up to ease the atmosphere."

The atmosphere in the conference center has indeed relaxed a bit. Mr. Fang’s previous speech was quite serious and he hoped that everyone would keep making progress, so people can’t help but think that if they don’t keep making progress, the always kind Fang will not force people to make progress. .

Now that Boss Xiong came on stage, he calmed down his emotions.

"Mr. Xiong's question is easy to make a long story, but if you think about it carefully, there is nothing to talk about. Many people are spreading nonsense." Fang Zhuo said seriously, "Just like Mr. Li you mentioned, when financing is You took me with you, and you sat next to me during the meeting, and you personally helped me find Mr. Li for the acquisition of Dangdang a while ago, under these circumstances, do you think Mr. Li has any emotions towards me?"

Xiong Xiaoge found out that he was beaten as an accomplice, even the mastermind, what does it mean to take you there?
"And like Mr. Ma, we do have some competition, but we don't have to be enemies." Fang Zhuo disagreed with this statement. "In business matters, why are you talking about enmity? If you say that, you sold Penguin back then. If you invest in Yike with shares, will Mr. Ma become enemies with you? It doesn’t make sense.”

Xiong Xiaoge wanted to distinguish but forgot to say that selling and investing are two different timelines, so don't talk about them together.

Fang Zhuo was frank and frank, and there was nothing he could not say to others: "Mr. Xiong talked about this today. I am actually very grateful to our competitors. Only competition can promote the emergence of better products and services. Yike has always welcomed competition. .”

"The so-called commercial methods are all dependent on product quality."

Seeing that the old bear had no objection, Fang Zhuo put his arms around the shoulders of his good friend and was about to step off the stage, leaving room for others.

"President Fang." Yu Hong raised her hand at this time, "I have a problem too."

Fang Zhuo smiled and said: "What? I can't go down today? Come, come, come, our American king wants to ask a question, let's listen together."

Xiong Xiaoge took advantage of the situation and quietly stepped down.

Yu Hong was dumbfounded, ah, hey, the title of King of the United States, don't shout it in public like this!
She paused for a second and asked: "There is a saying on the Internet that you and the other two leaders are in the Iron Triangle. Who are you and the Iron Triangle? What do you think of this relationship?"

Liu Qiangdong and Pan Ben next to him sighed in their hearts, President Yu, President Yu, King of the United States, King of the United States, are you asking this on behalf of Yi Ke?What is there to ask?At this time, let Mr. Fang talk about strategy and market.

"There is no iron triangle at all." Fang Zhuo said decisively, "Or, there are always many iron triangles."

He said with a smile: "There is room for cooperation, a win-win prospect, and stable expectations. This is the iron triangle of collaborators. I welcome more and more such iron triangles."

Yu Hong gently put down her hand, King of the United States, King of the United States, how could the question be changed temporarily.

At this time, Qiu Ciyun from Bingxin also raised his hand.

Fang Zhuo glanced at Mr. Qiu and found that his footsteps were welded to the stage.

"Mr. Fang, what do you think of the future competition situation of semiconductors?" Qiu Ciyun's style is relatively serious, and the content is relatively large. He really came to ask the question.

Facing Mr. Qiu's question, Fang Zhuo hesitated a little. In just a short while, there were three directions of questioning, which still took a bit of thinking.

However, semiconductors have always been an area where he thinks a lot.

"Everyone may know some of the situation of domestic semiconductors, and also know that Ice Core is developing well." Fang Zhuo said slowly, "But you may not know that Ice Core is now the fifth largest foundry in the world, and SMIC is fourth."

"The development of domestic semiconductors is restricted by various factors. There is no doubt that there are political factors and ideological factors here."

"But I think that with the development of globalization, with the realization of the potential of the domestic market, and with the growth of domestic semiconductor companies, such factors may be repeated and may cause setbacks, but they will all be resolved in the end."

Fang Zhuo pursed his lips and said: "Semiconductor is an industry first, not politics. Even if it is politicized for a while, it must still be based on economics and commerce. From the perspective of the long-term competition cycle, I think that including ice core There will be more and more opportunities for related domestic companies, including those in China.”

Qiu Ciyun felt that Mr. Fang's answer gave room for mutual discussion, and decided to talk in detail after tonight.

Just as Fang Zhuo was about to step down again, Wang Fengyi of Shenxin Kechuang suddenly raised his hand.

Fang Zhuo suddenly wondered if this was a pre-set link, why did they come one by one at this time?Are you letting people step down?

He smiled at Brother Wang and motioned to speak.

Wang Fengyi knew that there would be a questioning event this year, and he was happy to join in the fun, but what to ask specifically...

He is a very casual person. When he met Mr. Fang's eyes, he asked a question loudly: "Mr. Fang, you deal with investors a lot. Who do you think is the number one investor in China?"

Fang Zhuo laughed: "It's you, it's you, Brother Wang, you are the number one investor in my mind."

Wang Fengyi nodded in satisfaction, finished asking questions, and glanced at Mr. Xiong a few seats away, did you hear that?The customer's approval is the most important thing, who is the number one investor in Huaxia?

Xiong Xiaoge ignored his line of sight, feeling that tonight did not have the expected effect at all!

Seeing that Boss Fang didn't intend to step down at this meeting, he encouraged Liu Suyi of Yongke Real Estate: "Boss Liu, do you have any questions? Ask quickly, and let Boss Fang spend his brains to answer."

Although Liu Suyi didn't get the opportunity to ask questions beforehand, he vaguely knew that there seemed to be such a thing: "Okay."

He was about to raise his hand, but suddenly he saw the boss's gaze swept over him, and he raised his arm halfway and then retracted it.

"Ask, why don't you dare to ask?" Seeing this, Xiong Xiaoge hit the nail on the head.

Liu Suyi was indeed a little afraid of Mr. Fang, so he found a step by himself: "I suddenly feel a little uncomfortable in my stomach, so I asked back, asked back."

Fang Zhuoren was on the stage, seeing the eager eyes of many people below, he said a little puzzled: "It seems that there is still a need to hold more annual meetings. Everyone seems to have a lot of questions, and time is limited. In the end, let Mr. Wang come to ask. Wait a minute." Let’s also hear about the development of our companies this year.”

He took the initiative directly.

Su Wei, who has seniority, status, courage and connections, has long since given up manipulation, and has no intention of objecting at all.

"Mr. Fang, you mentioned an eight-year period just now. Since this is the case, what do you think about the direction of development in the next eight years?" Wang Yan from Sina was very happy that Mr. Fang took the initiative to give him the opportunity, and asked a bigger question temporarily. more imaginary question.

"The direction of development for the next eight years." Fang Zhuo changed his mind and said after pondering for a moment, "This topic is interesting."

"Technology is developing very fast, which may strengthen or weaken the current company's moat, so the judgment of the direction is very important."

"If you let me talk about the future development direction and opportunities..."

Fang Zhuo slowly listed: "Consumer electronics, social networking, electronic payment, cloud computing, semiconductors, new energy, artificial intelligence, these are all good."

He continued: "A good business, you can see what it will look like in the future."

Fang Zhuo gave a prophetic judgment at Yike’s eight-year annual meeting: “In the next eight years or even longer, stronger information interaction, more intelligent and interconnected will be a trend, no matter who it is, no matter who Any company must constantly iterate to produce products that are more in line with the expression of the times."

"Everyone here, we must actively participate, we must make up for our weaknesses, and we must organically combine our advantages into stronger competitiveness."

"I hope Yike can do it, and I hope everyone will work hard in this direction."
