The richest man

Chapter 227 Tencent QQ and Alibaba E-commerce

In addition, the cost of optical fiber is too high, so telecom companies have not started large-scale laying for the time being.

Zhang Jun estimated that even after 2000, it will only enter "LAN broadband", that is, community broadband, that is, the entire community uses the same optical fiber. When there are fewer people connected, the user experience will be faster. .

As for fiber-to-the-home "FTTH broadband", I don't know what year and month it will be.

……

……

Recently, Zhang Jun had people set up the Legendary Internet Company, and later merged Yahoo, Amazon, eBay, PayPal, Google, Internet Explorer, Netflix, and YouTube into the Legendary Internet Company.

The general manager of Legend Network Company is Geng Yuansi, a Chinese-American, graduated from Stanford University, and joined Legend Technology Company right after graduation. He is 38 years old, and compared to other general managers, he should be considered young and vigorous.

Zhang Jun noticed the companies under the name of Legendary Internet Company, and couldn't help but feel that the number was too small, wondering if he was starting several companies.

“There is no instant messaging software developed yet!”

"Let's develop this first!"

Zhang Jun immediately came to Geng Yuansi's office.

"Boss, hello, please sit down!" Geng Yuansi was slightly startled, guessing that the boss must be looking for something very important.

Zhang Jun responded, walked to the sofa and sat down, and immediately said: "I came here this time to develop a communication software! Although Yahoo already has a chat room, it is not convenient to use. We need an independent More powerful instant messaging software!"

As he said that, Zhang Jun took out the software planning book he wrote and handed it to Geng Yuansi, which also directly drew multiple interfaces of the instant messaging software.

Programmers can develop an excellent instant messaging software as long as they follow the diagram.

Zhang Jun said: "This instant messaging software is called QQ. You first organize a development team and develop it according to my plan."

Geng Yuansi listened to Zhang Jun while reading the document.

Geng Yuansi would ask a few questions about things he didn't understand from time to time.

The emergence of QQ instant messaging software can not help but make Geng Yuansi very interested.

"Okay, boss, I'll make arrangements in a while!" Geng Yuansi said immediately after waiting for Zhang Jun to finish.

"Ah."

The function of QQ instant messaging software is very powerful, supporting various functions such as "online chat", "group function", "offline", "point-to-point resumable file transfer", "shared file", "mailbox", "transfer offline file" and so on. Function.

As for more functions, we will develop them in the future.

Foreigners seem to prefer that kind of simple communication software, the functions are too complicated for them to play with.

……

Taking Zhang Jun's plan, Geng Yuansi immediately organized manpower and established a QQ research and development team.

Zhang Jun's request is that once the QQ software is released, it will be able to support multiple languages ​​and seize the instant messaging market in multiple countries.

In the previous life, there were various communication software, such as qq and WeChat, line, WhatsApp, tango, kakaoTalk, Hike, etc., which seriously hindered the communication between international friends.

How convenient it is to use the same instant messaging software to link global users together.

According to Zhang Jun's request, Geng Yuansi established Tencent, and QQ is a product of Tencent.

Tencent's logo is a little penguin.

Geng Yuansi looked at hundreds of developers and said loudly: "Everyone, the boss attaches great importance to this QQ software. Everyone must work hard to develop this software as soon as possible! By the way, this software, our boss's goal is 1 million users. I don’t know if everyone has confidence!”

"Yes!!!" Everyone excitedly responded in unison.

QQ software, everyone already understands it very clearly.

Thinking that QQ is being used all over the world, the crowd immediately became enthusiastic.

The listing of ie browser and Yahoo website has stimulated countless people.

If QQ succeeds, I am afraid it will not be weaker than Yahoo!

Geng Siyuan clapped his hands and said loudly: "Okay! Now, everyone is divided into groups to develop according to their own tasks!"

"Yes!" Everyone nodded in unison.

Hearing this, Geng Siyuan nodded to them, indicating to leave and go to work.

After the employees left, they discussed in small groups.

"Our boss is really a genius. He actually came up with a communication software like QQ. This software is really convenient. From now on, when you go online, you can contact your friends at any time!"

"Yes, this instant messaging software will be popular all over the world at first glance! By the way, we also need to develop mobile phone QQ. If everyone has a mobile phone QQ, it will be more convenient to contact in the future. And it doesn't cost extra Money, save money!"

"Haha, your idea is awesome, those telecommunications companies are probably going to die of anger!"

"..."

……

……

Zhang Jun didn't know that there were countless employees who adored him.

At this time, he was looking at the financial statements of "Legendary Internet Cafe" last year and the first half of this year.

After a while, he frowned and said, "The revenue of Legendary Internet Cafe is getting lower and lower, and even suffered a loss in the first half of this year! I think it's time to close some Internet cafes!"

Li Pengbo, general manager of "Legend Internet Café", smiled wryly, showing a helpless expression, and said: "Boss, Legend Internet Café is getting worse and worse in Europe and the United States. Internet, so fewer and fewer people come to Internet cafes to play games. However, in Asia, South America and Africa, "Legendary Internet Cafe" can still maintain a good profit! "

Zhang Jun nodded, expressing his understanding.

He understands the development of Internet cafes better than Li Pengbo.

In the previous life, the number of Internet cafes in Europe and the United States was relatively small, and they were not popular at all. American Internet cafes were even facing the danger of extinction.

"How about this, Mr. Li, first transfer the Internet cafes in Europe and the United States, and close them if they can't be transferred, and leave some Internet cafes with more traffic and better business. Asia, South America and Africa, I think, We can increase investment, build more Internet cafes, and go deep into rural villages and towns!"

In Zhang Jun's impression, even the Internet cafes in rural China have a booming business!
"Understood!" Li Pengbo nodded, and immediately said, "Boss, what to do with those old computers? Should they be placed directly in the newly opened Internet cafe, or..."

Zhang Jun thought about it, and it was not impossible to put the old computer in the newly opened Internet cafe.Many Internet cafes use old computers.

"If it can be used, it will be shipped to the newly opened Internet cafe. However, the appearance should be refreshed, so that it can't look too old."

"Okay, this batch of computers will be shipped to Internet cafes in those villages and towns. Let's lower the Internet fee a bit, and the users won't say anything." Li Pengbo thought for a while and said.

"Well, the idea is good, let's do it like this!" Zhang Jun agreed.

In this way, a lot of costs can be saved, while the Internet fee can be reduced, and many rural children can get access to computers and the Internet in advance and learn about the outside world.

……

……

Next, Zhang Jun had nothing to do, and began to study the company's many development projects, check the progress, and understand the situation of each company.

"Hey, Disney invested in Titanic?"

Zhang Jun was surprised, as expected, the Butterfly Effect had a great impact. In his previous life, Disney did not invest in this movie.

"Well, it's okay, James Cameron is still directing this movie, and the cast remains the same, so there is no problem. The box office of this movie shocked the world, with 18 billion US dollars, creating the first movie history, and Peripheral profits are even more astonishing, creating billions of dollars in value!"

When Zhang Jun saw this, he couldn't help thinking whether he should make "Harry Potter".

At present, this book is still serialized on the Amazon website, and its popularity is extremely high, and the first physical book "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" has also been released.

The sales volume of the physical book is as high as 1100 million copies, which stunned the attention of countless people.

However, Zhang Jun is still not satisfied, and feels that the sales volume is still too small.

I'm afraid it's because there is no movie promotion bonus, so the sales of physical books are not ideal.

He picked up the phone, called the CEO of Disney, and directly ordered him to start the "Harry Potter" series of movies.

After explaining clearly, Zhang Jun put down his phone and continued browsing the files.

After half an hour, he took a look, and a report caught his attention.

Famous domestic brands are being crazily suppressed by foreign products, and they are struggling. Many companies eventually go bankrupt because they cannot compete, especially in the field of daily chemicals, where the competition is extremely fierce.

"Is it daily?"

Zhang Jun said lightly, "Alibaba just entered the daily chemical industry!!!"

Immediately, Zhang Jun picked up the phone and called Wayne Webb, general manager of Alibaba.

"Boss, what can you do?" Wayne Webb walked up to Zhang Jun and asked.

"That's right, you sit down first, let's talk carefully. That's right, the retail industry is facing reforms, and Alibaba has to keep pace with the times and develop online businesses. Therefore, I plan to establish an Alibaba e-commerce company in mainland China , You go to a person who has built a website in mainland China called "China Yellow Pages" and ask him to be the CEO of Alibaba's e-commerce. "

This is called the three caves of the cunning rabbit. The United States can suppress Amazon, but it is difficult for you to suppress Alibaba.

Zhang Jun thought about it and separated the search engine from now on.

In the previous life, Google was unable to enter the mainland, maybe it was because of certain policies.

Wayne Webb was a little surprised at this time, isn't e-commerce handed over to Amazon and eBay?How to let Alibaba do it now?
At this time, Alibaba was not only involved in the retail industry, but also involved in the food and beverage processing industry, fast food and other industries. Master Kong, Coca-Cola, KFC, etc. are all Alibaba companies.

Wayne Webb didn't think too much, since the big boss ordered, he just did it.

"Okay, boss, I made a note!"

At this time, there are very few people who can develop the Yellow Pages website in China, and he is the right choice.

Ma Yun?

good luck
Wayne Webb secretly thought that this person has entered the eyes of the boss, and has a bright future.

"Well, next, Alibaba will set up a daily chemical company called "China Daily Chemical" Group. "

"Your task is to find suitable daily chemical brands in mainland China, then acquire them, and finally develop these brands!"

Wayne Webb nodded, and then asked, "Boss, do you have a company you want?"

"There are a few companies I like..."

Zhang Jun thought for a while and said, "Zhonghua toothpaste, Dabao, little nurse..."

When I was a child, the TV commercial "See you tomorrow, Dabao, see you every day" was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and Zhang Jun still remembers it to this day.

It's a pity that it was later acquired by a foreign country, and then it was hidden in the snow, and it never recovered.

"By the way, we also bought Supor Electric, Yinlu, Harbin Beer, Xuejin Beer, Shuanghui Ham, Xu Fuji, Golden Monkey Candy, Xiangxuehai Refrigerator, Totole Chicken Essence, and Nanfu Battery!!! Connect with the technology company and hand over the electronics company to them." Zhang Jun mentioned several brands in one breath.

These companies are all well-known national brands in China, but later, all of them became foreign, and some were hidden in the snow and disappeared from the public, so that many people didn't even know their names.

Alibaba has acquired these companies and can enrich its product types.

And these products can quickly become famous with the help of Alibaba's retail platform.

As the so-called "channel is king", at this time, the importance of channels is very great, and can even determine the life and death of a brand.

Wayne Webb was a little confused, how could it remember so many brands in a few clicks.

So, I asked Zhang Jun to write down these brands.

Zhang Jun smiled, took out a pen, and wrote out categories on the white paper.

"Daily Chemicals: Zhonghua Toothpaste, Dabao, Little Nurse"

"Electronics: Supor Electric, Xiangxuehai Refrigerator, Nanfu Battery"

"Food: Yinlu, Harbin Beer, Xuejin Beer, Shuanghui Ham, Xu Fuji, Golden Monkey Candy, Totole Essence of Chicken"

Wayne Webb took the paper and kept it carefully.

"Boss, is there anything else? If not, I'll leave first."

"No more, you go about your business."

"Okay, boss, then I will take my leave."

After Wayne Webb finished speaking, he left Zhang Jun's office.

……

……

domestic.

Chinese toothpaste.

"Well, business is becoming more and more difficult. Procter & Gamble, Unilever and other international giants have entered the Chinese market one after another. Although the quality of our products is not bad, the people always think that foreign products are the best. Xiang Jiafu, general manager of Zhonghua Toothpaste, shook his head and sighed.

"The company is currently in a downturn, and the factory is closed. The city government suggested that Zhonghua toothpaste be sold to Unilever, so as to get rid of the burden and solve the employment problem of workers. However, I am not reconciled. I have worked in the factory for more than 20 years. I I have dedicated my youth to it. Zhonghua toothpaste is a well-known national brand in our country, but now it has to be sold to foreigners!" Kang Junai, the factory manager, looked unwilling, and pleaded, "Mr. Xiang, is there no other Is there a solution? Do you have to sell the factory?"

Xiang Jiafu smiled wryly and said, "Oh, I don't want to sell the factory either, but the company's profitability is not good, it keeps losing money, the workers have nothing to do, and the company can't pay wages anymore! Now, the only way to save the factory is It is to accept the acquisition of the international daily chemical giant Unilever!"

Kang Junai's face was full of pain, he wanted to say something, but couldn't.

At this moment, a young man broke into the door and shouted excitedly: "President Xiang, Director Kang, our company is saved! Our company is saved!!!"

Xiang Jiafu and Kang Junai looked at the young man with doubts on their faces, and quickly asked: "What happened, how can we be saved?"
