Top of the Great Era

Chapter 1673 High Shipping
Going abroad and earning money from foreigners is probably the common dream of generations of entrepreneurs.

Probably this is the sign of a strong nation and a great enterprise.

Entrepreneurs of the older generation did not receive a very good education, and many of them did not even finish junior high school. Suddenly, the reform and opening up made it possible to do business suddenly, and then they started doing business while groping.

All in all, the level of these old guys is not very good.

But the younger generation is different. Entrepreneurs born in the 80s and 90s are all well-educated, have a good command of English, have an international perspective, and have greater courage and ambition.

This is especially true in the Internet industry.

The domestic Internet going overseas has been a great success, and most people are familiar with TikTok.In fact, this is already the era of going to sea 3.0.

The 1.0 era is the period from 2005 to 2010. It is the overseas exploration of PC Internet giants, mainly BAT, which have failed. The 2.0 era is the period from 2010 to 2015. It is the early exploration of the mobile Internet. In short, it is "tools to the sea".

How is the effect?
An unprecedented and spectacular success has been achieved!
Develop a browser, 2 million overseas users, develop a beauty camera, 3 million overseas users, develop a cleaning tool, 6 million overseas users... Even Meitu Xiuxiu has 5 million overseas users.

Including Tang Binchen in his previous life, also went to sea at this stage, and achieved great success.

In this process, many aggressive listed companies have been born, and they have the spirit to guide the world in overseas markets.The reason why they are not well-known in the country is mainly because these companies are really not on the stage, and their methods are very clumsy.

The logic of success is almost inseparable from the rogue software in the early days of the chaotic industry.

Especially in the past few years from 2013 to 2015, known as the "barbaric growth period of tool products", everyone is playing rogue software to grab the market, making a mess.

Many users are calling for help on YouTube or Twitter: "Who can teach me? How can I uninstall a certain App? Every time I uninstall it, I turn on the phone the next day, and it magically comes back! I'm already crazy Already!"

Later, it will not work.

Apple and Google successively took action to rectify the industry in 2015, and these companies basically lost half of their lives.What remains of Half-Life is Facebook's open platform.

In a blink of an eye, in 2016, Facebook couldn't bear it and made a move. They adjusted the advertising policy of the open platform and suspended all tool application advertisements in China.

It's over!

The 2.0 era of "tools going overseas" ended with a very miserable end, and then came the 3.0 era of "content going overseas", going overseas to do short video streaming, live streaming, and news streaming.

However, this is an overseas market.

The domestic market is not the same.

Fortunately for Apple, Apple is allowed in China, and the iOS system is also unified overseas. The iOS system has been upgraded and improved overseas, and the domestic side also benefits. Apple mobile phones will not have many rogue software background harassment.

But Google can't do it.

Google was unable to enter the mainland market, resulting in a "castrated version" of the domestic Android system, without the restrictions and management of GMS.The management rights that should belong to the operating system are all in the hands of mobile phone manufacturers.

But these mobile phone manufacturers, how can they solve such a serious problem?
What's more, there are huge economic benefits in it, from mobile phone vendors, channel vendors, advertisers, mobile phone vendors and operators, there are problems in every link.

This has led to a batch of bad apps on domestic Android phones, all in the 3.0 era, still asking for "high authority", secretly operating the phone in the background, forcing pop-up windows, bundling downloads, secretly sending text messages, online fraud, malicious deductions fee and so on.

In overseas markets, Apple and Google control the operating system, and they have the highest jurisdiction. In order to ensure their own interests, they must create the best operating system environment, which is driven by the market.

But it doesn't work in China, and if Google can't get in, it can only be handled by administrative power.Since 2016, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology has continuously issued documents to rectify the industry, cleaning up batch after batch of bad apps to protect consumer rights.

Zhou Buqi has a fairly good understanding of the domestic situation, but not so much about overseas.

But he can judge based on existing experience.

Apple and Google will definitely not condone the breeding and germination of rogue software on their systems, which is equivalent to destroying the business environment of a city.If the business environment deteriorates, it will inevitably lead to an outflow of people and a reduction in merchants, which in turn will lead to a reduction in tax revenue.

So Zhou Buqi's attitude was very firm, and he told Fu Sheng clearly: "You can only do this, there is no second choice. Look at the domestic SP industry. How popular in the past few years? After a few years of rectification, Isn’t it dying? This model, whether domestic or foreign, has no long-term development logic.”

Fu Sheng's spirit was not so good, and he remained silent.

Zhou Buqi lowered his head and took a few sips of coffee, leaving him enough time to think.

Fu Sheng thought about it for a long time, and said in a deep voice: "My model will definitely be followed by many people, whether it is the domestic market or the overseas market."

Zhou Buqi smiled, "Don't care about them, just be yourself. Do your best and then quit at a high position. This requires the art of decision-making."

"How to do it best?"

"You have a complete business plan, don't you?"

"This..." Fu Sheng scratched his head in embarrassment, "That's right, all my business plans revolve around the development of the product 'Cleaning Master'. First, scale up the 'Cleaning Master', and then rely on this The product is constantly evolving. If the 'Clean Master' can't do it, then there's no chance."

Zhou Buqi waved his hand, "It's very simple, you go and tell Tang Binchen that he is running a 'Manual' project, and it will be enough to add 'Clean Master' to the list of must-have apps."

Fu Sheng was very happy, "Well, I thought so too."

Zhou Buqi glanced at him, "Pay attention to maintaining the word-of-mouth of the 'Manual' project, 'Clean Master' don't go too far. If you want to play rogue methods, use other derivative apps to do it. Don't let the notoriety of 'Clean Master' affect The credibility of the manual has been compromised.”

Fu Sheng didn't take it seriously, "The manuals are aimed at beginners of some very low-end smartphones. They understand the credibility of the product, and if they are taught how to do it, they will do it, and they will do it arbitrarily."

Zhou Buqi said angrily: "Then you have to be more or less the same, the food is too much, and the 'instructions' will be taken off the shelves for your cleaning master."

"Oh, yes!"

Fu Sheng became serious.

now it's right!

If the rogue software has been played well, even its own "manual" store will not allow it, and it will be forcibly removed from the shelves.So how will Apple store, Google store, including Facebook open platform choose in the future?

Push others by yourself, the result is doomed!
"From this point of view, after this business is established, we really have to find an opportunity to sell it."

Fu Sheng was a little unwilling and a little emotional.

Zhou Buqi said: "It must be sold!"

In the previous life, in the era of going to sea 2.0, a group of people listed the company, including Fu Sheng's Cheetah. At its peak, the market value was as high as 50 billion US dollars, and it was in the limelight for a while.

But what's the use of this?

Market values ​​are all fake.

Major shareholders simply cannot cash out and withdraw.

After 2016, it was over, and the market value became lower and lower, until only 1500 million US dollars were left.

Another group of people chose to leave the market at a high level in 2015 and sold the company.These people are unknown, but they have all become the richest people on the wealthy side, and they have started to enjoy life early, without having to endure the pressure of stock price crashes.

If Fu Sheng also sold the company at its peak, even if it was only sold for 20 billion US dollars...to a technology giant like Microsoft or Oracle, and exchanged for Microsoft or Oracle shares of the same value, it would be safe, and the stock price will rise steadily , Whether it is sold or pledged, it can be cashed out into real money.

Zhou Buqi said: "You have to have a good relationship with those big companies in the United States and make good friends. When the time is almost right, there will be friends rushing to send you money."

"Rushing to give me money?"

Fu Sheng found this statement quite interesting.

Zhou Buqi said indifferently: "This is for sure, not everyone can board the one-way train of the mobile Internet on time. Once the best time is missed, you have to pay a high price for scalping tickets. Especially for those who are not far behind Technology giants, such as Microsoft, Oracle, Yahoo, Amazon, including some traditional software companies.”

Fu Shengdao: "Aren't they worried that tool products will replace the operating system?"

"Ah?" Zhou Buqi was a little amused, "Who can think so long-term? You think everyone is me! I won't tell you, can you think of it?"

Fu Sheng said modestly: "I didn't expect that I was worried about those big companies in the United States..."

"How many are they?" Zhou Buqi snorted, rather disdainful, "Including Bill Gates, they all belong to the previous era, and their vision has long since died. If Microsoft understands the mobile Internet, What about Apple and Google? Microsoft’s system has long dominated the world.”

Fu Shengdao: "I heard that Microsoft is developing a new mobile phone operating system and plans to start a war with Apple and Google."

"Impossible, they have no chance." Zhou Buqi waved his hand, "Well, Microsoft is an opportunity. When Microsoft loses in the operating system war, they will panic because they have lost their ticket to the mobile Internet. At that time, Maybe an olive branch will be thrown at you. At that time, you can just sell it friendly."

"What about after it's sold?"

"Ok?"

"After selling, what am I going to do? You want me to work for Microsoft or some other company?"

Fu Sheng didn't think Boss Zhou would give up on him.

Although he was fired by Ziweixing, he didn't think he really left.At least his biggest source of wealth is the stock of Ziwei Star, which is a constant relationship.

Zhou Buqi smiled and said, "Don't worry, I have other arrangements! Lao Zhang is not reliable, so I can only rely on you!"
