Chapter 419 Touch Ci Pingguo, beat Cao Yanhua, the budding dilemma of going to sea!

The hot sale of Maili X2 has put unprecedented pressure on Samsung and Pingguo.

Especially Pingguo.

It's not that Samsung is inferior to Pingguo, but after the last turmoil, Samsung's market share in China, especially the share of high-end models, has fallen sharply, no matter how bad it is. go.

It's a bit of a broken can.

But Pingguo is different. As a representative of the world's high-end smartphones, although the Maili X1 turned out before and the lack of innovation of new flagship phones for two consecutive years, it still cannot stop the reputation and strong background accumulated before.

In Huaxia, there is still a group of firm fruit powder support.

But with the strong launch of Maili X2, it has achieved a comprehensive surpassing of Pingguo 5S in terms of software and hardware, and it is really difficult for the so-called fruit fans to continue to "pretend to be deaf and dumb".

It can be said--

In addition to the closed-loop ecology, Pingguo 2S has no advantage over Maili X5.

In fact, the MILI 2 operating system launched with Maili X3.0 is already a semi-closed and semi-open operating system because it contains a lot of "private goods".

Although it is still born out of Android, it obviously has a lot of unique content.

Wait until next year.

When the Maili X3 is launched, it is expected to be equipped with the Soil system and completely abandon the Android system.

Pingguo 5S has a little advantage in the operating system, which can no longer support its high premium compared to Maili X2, and it is still under the premise that the hardware purchase cost of Maili X2 is higher.

With new choices, who is willing to pay for the so-called feelings?
Not to mention the low-end version of Pingguo 5c, Pingguo originally wanted to use Pingguo 5c to hit the mid-end market, but it stemmed from the arrogance and self-confidence in the bones, but set an extremely outrageous price for Pingguo 5c. price.

"You call a [-]+ mobile phone a mid-range phone?"

The original time-space Pingguo 5c did not sell well, and in this life, due to the existence of the wheat grain X2, it is even more unsalable.

No one would be stupid enough to say, just for a Pingguo logo, for the sake of the so-called vanity, to pay for the 5+ Pingguo 2c, isn’t the Wheat X[-] delicious?

Not to mention.

In China, the Pingguo mobile phone can no longer satisfy the vanity, and the wheat grain mobile phone is the pride of China.

Even the last fig leaf is gone.

As a result, although there is no negative public opinion, Pingguo is repeating the mistakes of Samsung in the Chinese market, and is facing a Waterloo.

Not only are the newly released Pingguo 5S and Pingguo 5c unavailable, but the sales of Pingguo 5, which has already been reduced in price, are also worrying.

China's high-end mobile phone market is showing a new pattern of "one super and two idiots".

Of course, the situation of Pingguo is still a little bit better than that of Samsung.

With such a huge consumer group in Huaxia, there will always be a group of brainless fruit fans who brainwash themselves into thinking that the ones from the beautiful country are fragrant, and the ones from Huaxia are not fragrant.

This is also something that can't be helped. Who doesn't have a few fools?

The most paradoxical thing is.

Faced with the super predicament encountered in the Chinese market, Pingguo seems to have no countermeasures that can be used, so it can only learn from Samsung and initiate an intellectual property lawsuit against Maili mobile phone in overseas markets such as Europa.

But this trick, to be honest, is not effective.

If you really want to suppress the Maili mobile phone, unless Pingguo unites with giants such as Gaotong and Guge to give full play to the traditional art skills of the Anza people - if you can't beat it, just flip the table.

But it is only 13 years now, and the timing is obviously not yet ripe.

Although there has been news that Wolf Street has sent someone to contact Gu Ge to see if they can use the Android system as a threat to hold the seven inches of the Maili phone.

But at least for now, Guge has not made a formal statement.

.........

Thursday, November 9.

Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, and Zhang Shuo was invited to come to Tang's hometown to enjoy the moon together.

Before going to Tang's hometown, Zhang Shuo had to finish the work at hand. First, he met Cheng Minghua, the legal director of the group, in the office, and listened to Cheng Minghua's special report.

"Perhaps it is because the relevant department's anti-monopoly investigation against Gaotong is still going on, and Gaotong does not want to cause extra problems for the time being. So far, it has not filed an intellectual property lawsuit against Maili Group in overseas markets."

"That's the smart thing to do."

Zhang Shuo realized that overseas giants like Gaotong are not really omnipotent. As long as they don't want to give up the Chinese market and the Chinese side is strong enough, they will be afraid.

It's not that it's really invincible.

Many times, Huaxia likes to say that peace is the most important thing, but they don't know that they will also fight against wolves.

If unity is sought through struggle, then unity will survive!

"Gaotong hasn't moved yet, but Pingguo, after suing Maili Group in the beautiful country last time, filed an intellectual property lawsuit against Maili Group in Europa yesterday." Cheng Minghua continued to report.

Pingguo was really in a hurry this time.

Because not only did it lose to Maili in the Chinese market, but also in the Southeast Asian market, due to the intensive cultivation of Maili Group in the past year, it was also on par with Pingguo.

Follow this trend.

It is only a matter of time before Maili mobile phone surpasses Pingguo in the Southeast Asian market.

"Pingguo is fine to sue. In this way, the fingerprint unlocking card we prepared before can be used this time?" Zhang Shuo was not worried but happy.

"Yes."

Cheng Minghua obviously had a plan in mind.

"Then let's put on a big show in the Europa Market. Remember, don't be in a hurry to decide the winner. The longer the two sides sue each other, the better." Zhang Shuo instructed with a smile.

"Chairman, do you mean to touch Pingguo?" Cheng Minghua was thoughtful.

"Yes, it's Porcelain!"

Zhang Shuo generously admitted, “Pingguo’s brand awareness in the world is much higher than that of Maili. The lawsuits surrounding Pingguo and Maili just made the outside world subconsciously regard Maili and Pingguo as the same A heavy-weight competitor. In this way, Mai Li can win Pingguo and earn experience points openly."

For a latecomer brand that wants to quickly increase its coffee status, it is a good way to touch the leader in the porcelain industry.

For example, the so-called cat-dog war between the original space-time Jingdong and Ahri was that Jingdong was consciously touching porcelain Ahri, deliberately designing the brand logo as a dog, and confronting Ahri's cat.

It's been a long time.

Consumers will subconsciously think that Jingdong is an honorable defeat, even if it is not as good as Ahri, but at least it is on the same level of platform as Ahri.

Otherwise, how could a war be triggered?
Zhang Shuo is worrying about how to let Maili mobile phone fully open the Europa market. This lawsuit battle with Pingguo is undoubtedly an excellent opportunity.

"Chairman, don't worry, I will handle it well." Cheng Minghua also understood.

.........

Send Cheng Minghua away.

Zhang Shuo took the time to meet Cao Yanhua, the president of Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment.

Generally, when there is nothing to do, Cao Yanhua will not show up at the headquarters of Binhai City. If there is anything to do, he will report to Lu Qi through email, Feixun, phone, etc.

If you can find Zhang Shuo directly, you are basically here to buy.

It is about to enter October, and according to the two-month to half-year production cycle of mobile games, Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment is already working on the mobile game development plan for next year.

According to the schedule, the mobile game that will be launched in January and February next year has to start production now.

So Cao Yanhua came.

Zhang Shuo was also well prepared. After a brief chat with Cao Yanhua, he took out a stack of game plans.

mainly include--

"Onmyoji", "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds" (mobile game version), "Azur Lane", "King of Avalon", "Era of Kingdoms", "Dragon Babu" and "Yuan Shen" seven mobile games.

Then there is a terminal game-"Watching Pioneer".

When it comes to the birth process of "Overwatch", there is still a hint of legend. It was originally just a temporary idea of ​​​​the Blizzard team after the failure of the production of "Warhammer".

Unexpectedly, it shined brilliantly in the follow-up production.

Of course, Zhang Shuo has no reason to give up such a masterpiece of terminal games, just to consolidate Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment's position in the global terminal game field, and secure the throne of the world's largest game manufacturer.

Cao Yanhua naturally felt like a treasure when he got the planning plan.

"Chairman, you are really amazing, you are simply a god-level game planner."

"It goes without saying that it's a compliment."

Zhang Shuo waved his hand, and said meaningfully: "I have heard more than once from the people below that there are many luxury cars parked in the underground garage of the headquarters building of Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment. When will you invite me to visit?"

Of course, there are many advantages to relocating a subsidiary to a city other than the headquarters.

But there are also disadvantages.

The biggest disadvantage is that after a long time, these subsidiaries are far away from the emperor, so it is easy to do some small tricks without telling the headquarters, such as setting up a small treasury in private.

It may even develop into a prince.

Even if it is said that no matter how the group headquarters strengthens supervision, there will still be loopholes.

Among the many relocated subsidiaries, Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment is the most profitable one, and the situation of setting up a small treasury is naturally more serious than other subsidiaries.

Zhang Shuo had heard about this for a long time, but he kept silent.

Because Zhang Shuo understands a truth, if you want the horse to run, you have to feed the horse grass, as long as the blue bird mutual entertainment does not go too far, he will turn a blind eye.

Speaking now, it is natural that the situation has reached the point where it has to be said.

This is why.

Zhang Shuo asked the president's office to inform Cao Yanhua of the reason for making a special trip to Binhai headquarters.

Just to beat Cao Yanhua.

"Uh, this..."

The expression on Cao Yanhua's face changed instantly, "Chairman, please listen to my explanation."

"For me, the last thing I need is an explanation. If you want an explanation, ask Mr. Lu to explain it." Zhang Shuo smiled and shook his head, "Don't be too nervous, I just remind you, pay more attention next time."

For an executive at Cao Yanhua's level, there are many things that need not be explained too clearly.

Click until now.

If Cao Yanhua couldn't even understand this level of warning, it would be really dangerous.

"understood."

Cao Yanhua's expression was still dignified, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Chairman, don't worry, I will take care of it."

"Yes, of course I am relieved." Zhang Shuo just smiled.

But in Cao Yanhua's eyes, this warm smile carried a trace of unquestionable majesty.

Immediately the pressure increased.

Zhang Shuo, the big boss, seemed to be superficial. He took this matter lightly and didn't say a single serious word. That was enough to give Cao Yanhua face. As a subordinate, he must know how to cherish it.

At the same time, it is also giving Cao Yanhua a chance to correct his mistakes.

I also know that after this conversation, Zhang Shuo will continue to pay attention to the progress of this matter, and whether it is the president's office or the rotating president Lu Qi, they will also help Zhang Shuo to keep an eye on it.

Once Cao Yanhua's handling measures did not satisfy Zhang Shuo, the consequences would be very serious.

Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment is not without him.

Who doesn't know that Zhang Shuo is the hero behind the scenes of Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment, the soul figure, with Zhang Shuo's game planning, replaced by any qualified manager, can manage Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment well.

This is where Cao Yanhua is most nervous.

It is precisely because he is not indispensable to Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment that he has to walk on thin ice.

And obviously.

Cao Yanhua's career as a "vassal" in the past year has made Cao Yanhua a little bit smug.

This is human nature.

Zhang Shuo is also willing to talk to Cao Yanhua, at least to prove that he still recognizes his work ability, and is willing to correct him with the attitude of "curing the disease to save the patient".

If there is no talk, then Cao Yanhua is really in danger.

May be abandoned at any time!
.........

After finishing the work at hand, at six o'clock in the evening, Zhang Shuo came to Mr. Tang's residence with the gift that Dai Yutong had prepared in advance, and spent the Mid-Autumn Festival with the old man.

Outsiders may not understand.

But Zhang Shuo was clear in his heart that the old man was his biggest backer.

It is a true Buddha!
Therefore, whenever he is free, Zhang Shuo will come to play chess and chat with the old man.

Just compared to three years ago.

Elder Tang obviously lost a lot of weight and talked a lot less. Every time, he sat aside and quietly listened to Zhang Shuo chatting with his second uncle Tang Yi about something.

Fortunately, the spirit is still strong.

"Sprout is moving very quickly. I heard that Dao Sui Group has started the A-round financing process." Sitting in the gazebo, the second uncle Tang Yi also took the initiative to open the chatterbox.

"Aren't I following your second uncle's instruction?" Zhang Shuo smiled.

"Don't!"

Tang Yi waved his hand, "I'm talking to you, and I only represent some of my personal views and opinions. You don't need to take this as an official instruction. Use it if it's useful, and don't use it if it's not."

He doesn't want to interfere with budding business decisions.

"Yes Yes Yes."

Zhang Shuo nodded with a smile, and changed the topic, "It's not just because of your suggestion, Second Uncle. Inside Germination, there is also a plan to put the financing of Daosuke Group on the agenda, so as to reduce the financial burden of the headquarters."

"is it?"

Tang Yi couldn't understand, "Isn't the recent capital chain of the Germination Group very healthy? Is there no need to rush to get rid of the burden of the Rice Ear Group?"

In his opinion, the development prospect of Dao Sui Group is very broad.

"The capital chain is not tight, so you can do something else." Zhang Shuo explained with a smile.

"Which area are you planning to work on?"

Tang Yi was no stranger to Zhang Shuo's wild way.

"I haven't thought about it yet."

Zhang Shuo glanced at his second uncle, and asked tentatively, "Mr. Ya has been so tossed about and spanned multiple industries. Isn't it a bit too cutting-edge? Do you want to restrain yourself?"

"It's not necessary!"

Tang Yi naturally knew what Zhang Shuo was worried about. "Let's put it this way, Germinal's development has indeed attracted the attention of all parties. One of the elders above has mentioned Germinal several times."

"But this kind of attention is positive, and generally, it is still supportive."

"The elder said that as long as Germina's business is compliant and legal, let alone trillions, even if it reaches ten trillions, Huaxia can accommodate it, so don't worry about top-notch issues."

Huaxia is no longer the Huaxia of the past, and naturally it has a new attitude and atmosphere.

Not to mention, compared to Ari, Tengda and others, Germination has been more established since its inception, and its achievements in public welfare are also seen by the higher-ups.

There is no reason to deliberately suppress it.

"The most important thing is that the above is very reassuring about you. The elders have said that if there is a chance, they would like to talk to you and discuss some topics related to the industrial economy." Tang Yi said with a smile.

"I dare not take that."

Zhang Shuo was flattered.

Then he realized that apart from his usual words and deeds, three views and other things, he was able to get the approval of the above, and it must be because of the second uncle's endorsement behind it.

The so-called "genzhengmiaohong" refers to this.

"That's not up to you."

It's rare to see Zhang Shuo frightened, but Tang Yi is in a good mood, and said with a smile: "You have to be mentally prepared for this, but don't have any pressure. You can talk to me as you usually do, and you can talk to the elders as well."

At the level of elders, they will only be gentler than Tang Yi.

"Ok."

Zhang Shuo was under a lot of pressure, and deep in his heart, he was a little excited.

"By the way, I heard that Pingguo has launched an intellectual property lawsuit against Maili mobile phone in the Europa market. Can Germina handle it?" Tang Yi also changed the topic along the way.

"Okay."

Zhang Shuo revealed all his plans, and he had nothing to hide from his second uncle.

"Well, your strategy is very good."

Tang Yi was really emotional. It can be said that he watched Zhang Shuo grow up all the way.

Today, Zhang Shuo's mature thinking, sophisticated methods, and broad vision, even Tang Yi sometimes does not realize that he is greatly admired. Zhang Shuo is indeed a natural material for doing business.

This kind of talent is really unenviable.

The most important thing is that Zhang Shuo has an indescribable quality, like the chosen one, who can often see through the fog that others cannot see through, and see things that others cannot see.

It's really amazing.

It is precisely because of this that Tang Yi will work hard to protect Zhang Shuo from being affected by off-court factors.

It was well-intentioned.

.........

For the next week, nothing major happened.

Germinal is still the protagonist of public opinion, and is forced to leave the country from time to time.

In addition to the continued hot sales of Maili X2, and the financing of the three subsidiaries of Sprout, it has attracted the attention of global investment institutions, and they all want to get a share of it.

Unfortunately.

Germination still insists on the consistent tone, and the financing objects are mainly the national team.

If investment institutions at home and abroad want to get a piece of the pie, there is only a chance for Panda Live's B round of financing. However, Panda Live's valuation is only 10 billion, and the cake that can be divided is really limited.

As for this, they still have to take care of game companies such as Wangye.

As for the A-round financing of Pinxixi Group, not all of them chose Chengtou, and some overseas investment institutions were appropriately introduced, but most of them were business giants from Southeast Asia.

its intention.

Naturally, it is also to expand the business of Pinxixi Group in Southeast Asia and escort the sea.

In addition to the financing of the three subsidiaries, on September 9, Qinghe Technology also officially announced that Weixin users officially exceeded 23 million, and monthly active users exceeded 6 million.

It once again confirmed the name of "China's largest mobile social software".

According to this trend, the total number of users of Weixin surpassed ICQ and became the social software with the most registered users in Huaxia, which is a matter of time.

If you count Shanghai’s overseas version of wichat, it is enough to reach the top social software with the largest number of users in the world.

Weixin's great success is set off by the continued decline of Tenda, the former social giant. Along with the continuous polarization of word of mouth, the number of daily active users of ICQ is showing a downward trend.

This is undoubtedly fatal to Tengda.

Reflected in the stock price, it means that Tenda's stock price will continue to lie flat, and it will no longer be able to revive the glory of the original time and space.

It also completely reshaped the new pattern of Huaxia Internet companies.

On the surface, Ahli, whose market capitalization is worth trillions, is the most beautiful, but in fact, it has sprouted and hit three, completed the suppression of the blood of the three giants, and became a super giant in the Chinese Internet field.

.........

Thursday, November 9.

In the office, Zhang Shuo is listening to the report of Vice President Lu Kai.

"Pinxixi Group's A round of financing has landed, and Panda Live has also reached an investment agreement for its B round of financing, with a valuation of 100 billion, financing of 10 billion, and the transfer of 10% of the equity."

During the A round of financing last year, Panda Live was valued at only 20 billion.

At that time, Tengda took advantage of it.

One and a half years later, as the largest live broadcasting platform in China, Panda Live is fully worthy of a valuation of tens of billions, and the billion-dollar financing is enough to support its operations in the next year or two.

After this round of financing.

Qinghe Technology’s shareholding in Panda Live will be diluted from the original 70% to 63%.

corresponding.

Tenda’s shareholding in Panda Live will also be diluted from 30% to 27%.

remaining 10% stake.

The new round of investors such as NetEase and Fenglei Fund will divide up the shares.

That's right.

After receiving 150 billion financial support, Fenglei Fund also participated in the financing of Pangda Live.

"The most complicated operation is the A-round financing of Daohuo Group. After repeated evaluations, the valuation of Daohuo Group was finally determined-2500 billion. The A-round financing will transfer 10% of the equity and raise 250 billion yuan."

no doubt.

The A-round financing of Inaosui Group will set a new record for Huaxia's corporate financing.

To know.

In May of this year, when Qingcheng Group raised its C round of financing, its valuation was only 10 billion.

The rice ear group more than doubled directly.

However, if you take a closer look at the assets under the name of Dao Sui Group, it is indeed worthy of this valuation.

First of all, Inaosui Group wholly owns Jing Jiawei, the largest graphics card design company in China, and Weijing Semiconductor, the largest chip foundry company in mainland China.

In addition, Inaosui Group also controls Candle Dragon Technology, the largest chip design company in China, and Changjiang Storage, one of the world's largest storage giants.

at the same time.

Inaosui Group is also the major shareholder of AMD, Lijing Group, Licheng Technology, Longxin, Tairui Semiconductor and other semiconductor companies, and also holds a small part of Huaxia Microelectronics.

Such a group of ears of rice, of course, deserves this valuation.

Not to mention a valuation of 50 billion, even Ahri, which has a market value of nearly one trillion yuan, is not willing to exchange it. In the future, the potential of Daohuo Group will definitely be higher than that of Ahri.

It is also because of this that the A-round financing of Inaosui Group has attracted the attention of global investors.

Unfortunately.

Germinal Group doesn't care about these investment institutions at all.

"It is expected to participate in the A-round financing of Dao Sui Group, mainly including SDIC, Huaxia Semiconductor Industry Fund, Huaxia Microelectronics, Lingnan Provincial Investment, Jingchu Provincial Investment, Wannan Provincial Investment, Binhai City Investment, Magic City Investment, Luzhou City Investment, Jiangxia City Investment." Lu Kai reported.

It can be seen that they are all national teams.

"Let's add another TEC." Zhang Shuo said.

"Thai Electromechanical?"

Lu Kai was a little surprised, then nodded and wrote it down.

Zhang Shuo also had no choice.

Prior to this, Gu Mingzhang had had two contacts with TECH to discuss the establishment of a 20nm wafer foundry in Luzhou Semiconductor Base.

Although the Dao Sui Group offered the chips for Zhulong Z2 chip foundry, Thai Electromechanical was still a little hesitant.

A 20nm wafer foundry has a large investment amount, starting at 20 billion, and it is the first 20nm wafer foundry. Tai Electromechanical originally planned to build a factory in Yizhou Province.

no way.

In order to help Taiji Electric make up its mind, Zhang Shuo can only give Taiji Electric a little more sweetness, allowing Taiji Electric to participate in the A-round financing of Daosuke Group, so as to reach a more stable strategic alliance with Daosuke Group.

With this bargaining chip, TEC agreed to build a factory in Luzhou.

What Ketai Electromechanical did not know was that as the binding between Thai Electromechanical and Dao Sui Group became deeper and deeper, and the production capacity was gradually transferred to Luzhou, it had already unknowingly entered into the plan set up by Zhang Shuo for it. trap.

If you want to jump back in the future, it will not be so easy.
