Top of the Great Era

Chapter 1555
The leader of Ziweiyun is Dr. Wang Jian. The entire team was formed by him alone. It took four years of hard work to achieve today's situation.

But Wang Jian is not a person greedy for power. He knows that he has a bad temper and lacks grasp of business and the market, so he voluntarily gave up the position of president of Ziweiyun's domestic business to his deputy Zhou Feng, and he is only in charge of technology and Product development.

It can also be seen from this that the power disagreement between Wang Jian and Kurian is not for himself.

Zhou Buqi said: "Wang Jian's team is not easy. In the past few years, they have suffered a lot and endured a lot of pressure. Now, Ziweiyun seems to be successful, but this kind of meritorious team may be important. He can't bear to be relegated."

Shen Xiangyang took a deep breath, "Yes, that's the reason."

Zhou Buqi said indifferently: "Dr. Wang Jian is a scientist, we can't ask too much from him. But we are the makers of corporate strategies, we must be rational enough and not be arrogant. You also said that invention patents are the future development of the cloud computing industry. Foundation. In many other fields, almost all invention patents are in the hands of Europe and the United States. Cloud computing is an emerging industry, and Ziwei Cloud has already taken the lead in the initial stage. The lack of underlying technology must not lead to Ziwei Cloud's lack of stamina in the future .”

Shen Xiangyang nodded, "No matter what, Kurian's idea is correct. Ziweiyun's key research and development direction must focus on invention patents. If the domestic team can't do it, we have to rely on the Silicon Valley team."

"It must be like this!"

Zhou Buqi very much approves of such a decision.

But in this way, Ziweiyun's domestic team status was downgraded.Previously, Ziweiyun's strategic core was at home, mainly at home and supplemented by foreign countries.

But if the technical direction of Ziweiyun is set at a higher level, and the future will be based on invention patents, then the subject and the object will be changed.

Because the domestic team has insufficient innovation in the research and development of invention patents, the task of developing invention patents for Ziwei Cloud can only fall on the shoulders of the overseas R&D team led by Kurian.

This also means that Ziweiyun will play the main force overseas in the future, and will play support domestically.

Dr. Wang Jian may not care about personal honor and disgrace and the lack of power, but as the soul of the domestic team, he has to consider the brothers under him who are fighting against him.

Ziweiyun was created by their team. It would be unfair if the importance of this was downgraded.

But from the perspective of enterprise management, it must be partly subordinate to the overall situation.

Whether it is a domestic team or a foreign team, this is Ziweixing's team.Whether it is domestic research results or foreign research results, these are the research results of Ziweixing.

Ziweixing just split the equity and has two sets of books.However, management, personnel, technology, products, markets and many other aspects are all shared, which is no different from when they were not split.

Even the equity of shareholders has not changed.

From Dr. Wang Jian's point of view, his team's interests have been damaged and his power has been weakened.But from the perspective of Zhou Buqi, there is actually no difference whether it is domestic or foreign.Whoever can create the greatest benefits for Ziwei Star and accumulate the most underlying technology will be the master!

In the past few years, Ziweixing's strength has been relatively weak, and it has not developed overseas markets. All hopes for the cloud computing business will fall on Dr. Wang Jian's team.

It is different now, Ziweixing's overseas business has become stronger and stronger.Ziweiyun's initial strategy was very successful. If it wants to keep the fruits of success, it must have enough accumulation in the underlying technology.

In the previous life, Amazon Cloud's global market share was as high as 70%, and Alibaba Cloud was second in the world.After many years, Amazon Cloud is still the number one in the world, but its market share has dropped to 40%. Alibaba Cloud has been overtaken by Microsoft Cloud and Google Cloud, and has dropped to fourth in the world.

Even TikTok stopped working with Alibaba Cloud and chose Google Cloud instead.

Why is this happening?

A big reason is that the underlying technologies of Microsoft Cloud and Google Cloud are more powerful.The best technology does not mean the best market.But the best technology means that there is potential for accumulation and development.

If Ziweiyun wants to compete with international giants such as Amazon Cloud, Microsoft Cloud, and Google Cloud in the global market, it is far from enough to rely solely on domestic technical teams.

Giants such as Amazon, Microsoft, and Google do not only rely on the R&D teams in Silicon Valley. They have deployed R&D centers around the world, relying on technical talents from all over the world for their own use.

It is definitely not possible for Ziweiyun to rely on Dr. Wang Jian's team to build a car behind closed doors. It still has to be led by Kurian to embrace scientific and technological talents from all over the world with a more open attitude.

In this matter, Zhou Buqi had to act quickly and decisively, and he could not be merciful.

Shen Xiangyang said in a difficult way: "Should Wang Jian help Kurian? I'm afraid... Even if he can accept it, his team may find it difficult to accept it. In that team, Dr. Wang Jian is probably the most important person in the world in their hearts. Good computer scientists."

At this time, the two had already entered the cloud computing building, and there was a security check at the door.Because the underlying technology of cloud computing is not only software technology and operating system, but also hardware sensors, storage, computing equipment, servers, displays, etc., the confidentiality standards are higher.

After passing the security check, the two were about to get on the elevator, Zhou Buqi looked at him with a smile, "How about you go to America?"

"I?"

Shen Xiangyang froze for a moment.

Zhou Buqi said: "How about mobilizing Wang Jian's job and letting him be the CTO of Ziwei Star?"

Shen Xiangyang is now the CTO of Ziwei Star, and his heart is full of doubts, "Of course it is possible for him to take over this job. He is full of motivation and has developed Ziwei Cloud. He has made outstanding achievements and everyone will respect him. "

It's really nothing to ask him to step down as the CTO of Ziwei Star.

Generally speaking, the CTO in a company is the highest authority in the technical field.But Ziwei Star is different, it is divided into three parts.

Part of it is artificial intelligence technology, which Shen Xiangyang is in charge of.

Part of it is cloud computing technology, which was previously in charge of by Wang Jianlai.Even if Shen Xiangyang is the CTO, he cannot make technical requirements for Wang Jian. Wang Jian is the chief scientist of Ziweiyun, and he is fully responsible.

The last part is the main responsibility of the CTO, who will be responsible for the guidance of all business technologies in the company except for the two core businesses of artificial intelligence and cloud computing.This part of the work is not too difficult for scientists at the level of Shen Xiangyang and Wang Jian.In addition to artificial intelligence and cloud computing, Ziwei Star's other business lines do not have any world-class technologies that can be produced.

Let Wang Jianlai take over the position of CTO, no problem at all.Moreover, he was originally the chief scientist of Ziwei Cloud. After becoming CTO, he can also coordinate the collaboration of Ziwei Star's business and cloud technology, which is more appropriate.

Shen Xiangyang went on to say: "Ziweixing's domestic business will gradually migrate to the cloud in an all-round way. It would be more suitable for Wang Jianlai to be the domestic CTO to guide this part of the work than me."

"Then it's settled!" Zhou Buqi waved his hand, "Let Wang Jian be the CTO, Zhou Feng is the president of the cloud computing business, and accept Kurian's technical project assignment."

Shen Xiangyang nodded and said: "Well, this arrangement can indeed solve the current conflict. Dr. Wang Jian has been promoted, and the morale of him and his team can be guaranteed. Zhou Feng is very young. He used to serve as Wang Jian's deputy, and later he will serve as Kurian's assistant. As a deputy, he can also accept it. Wang Jian has been promoted, the team has stabilized, Kurian's requirements have been met, and all parties are satisfied."

Then, I became suspicious in my heart.

What's the situation?

Sacrificing one of them for all of them?

Boss Zhou can't do such immoral things, can he?
Seeing his strange expression, Zhou Buqi guessed his thoughts, and said with a smile: "Old Shen, you are the scientist I rely on the most, more important than Wang Jian and Kurian, why are you nervous?"

Shen Xiangyang shook his head, "It's not that I'm nervous, it's that it's strange. Remy, the CTO of Ziwei International, I think he's perfect for that job. Moreover, Ziwei International just replaced the president of the cloud computing business within a few months, and Xu Liangjie Arrange to manage personnel affairs in the past, and it is not appropriate to move executives in a short time."

Zhou Buqi said indifferently: "I don't want another Kurian to appear again."

"Ok?"

Shen Xiangyang froze for a moment, not quite understanding.

Zhou Buqi said in a deep voice: "Ziweixing and Ziweixing International, the CTO is responsible for the daily technical business. In addition, there must be a person in charge of the artificial intelligence and cloud computing business. Dr. Wang Jian has no experience of studying abroad or working overseas. It is not appropriate to ask him to lead the global business of Ziweiyun. Although Zhou Feng returned from studying in the United States, he is too young and has no authority and appeal in Silicon Valley. We can only pin our hopes on Kurian. We must avoid this kind of thing from happening again. Old Shen, you are different. You are a celebrity in Silicon Valley, the founder of artificial intelligence technology, and the scientific and technological talents in this field all over the world are your disciples and grandchildren..."

"Don't, don't..." Shen Xiangyang waved his hands quickly, startled by the tall hat, "It's not that exaggerated, artificial intelligence is a huge and complex industry, and I have only made some trivial contributions."

Zhou Buqi said with a smile: "You are being modest. I have met many people in Silicon Valley, whether it is Microsoft, Google, Apple, or IBM. They all admit that the number one person in artificial intelligence in Silicon Valley these years is you Shen Xiangyang, the second person is Lu Qi. Both of you work at Ziwei Star, and they both said that Ziwei Star will have great development in the field of artificial intelligence in the future."

Shen Xiangyang said modestly: "It's all courtesy of my peers. Throughout Silicon Valley, there are at least dozens of scientists in the field of artificial intelligence who have made greater contributions to this field than me, and they have more invention patents."

Zhou Buqi snorted, "So what? They are outsiders, but you are one of our own!"
