The Ten Years of Rebirth

Chapter 188 Two Women Cooking
Xu Xing had thought about WeChat getting out of the circle through popular searches before, but he didn't expect it to come so quickly.

On the one hand, this is because there are indeed many people with a sense of smell in the market, and on the other hand, it is also because the iteration speed of WeChat is too fast, and the increase in the number of users is so amazing that it has grown up without knowing it, and it is too easy to attract the attention of others. .

Normally speaking, the update speed of one iteration per week is actually very abnormal.

Unless there is a long time to prepare in the early stage and a sufficient version update plan is made, all the functions to be updated in several versions will be made in advance, and the update will be updated when the time comes.

Otherwise, it is difficult to achieve the version iteration speed like WeChat.

But WeChat is different here.

Because of the existence of Xu Xing, a reborn person.

Although Xu Xing's technical level can only be said to be normal, the most special thing about him is that he is a boss who understands technology and has a complete product in mind.

On this basis, every version update of Weixin does not need to consider the testing and screening of various new functions, does not need to think about which functions should be launched, and does not need to make half of the new functions and be rejected. Do another new function.

Others make products with twists and turns. They have to go through various meetings and discussions, data comparisons, functional applications, and face various obstacles and details.

But for Xu Xing, the starting point is here and the end point is here. He only needs to draw a straight line to reach the end point.

This beats other products in terms of efficiency.

If it weren't for such an advantage, it would be impossible for WeChat to iterate three times in a row within just one month of its launch, each time being a very important new function.

but.

Just before Xu Xing faced the rapid growth of WeChat and waited for the social software launched by other big companies to chase and block WeChat.

A few days after wechat first appeared on the trending list, secretary Peng Yuxuan reported another incident.

"Mr. Xu, the company mailbox just received an email. It's from the Two-dimensional drama website, Aizhan." Peng Yuxuan sent the email to Xu Xing's personal mailbox, then got up and came to his desk Said, "It has been sent to your mailbox. The general content is that you want to acquire Bizhan. Please check the details yourself."

"Acquisition of Beep Station?" Xu Xing was stunned for a while, not understanding what this operation was.

The current actual controller of Aizhan is Cheng Shaojie from Bianfeng Network.

As early as two or three years ago, the original founder of Aizhan chose to sell Aizhan to Cheng Shaojie for 400 million yuan because of the energy conflict between his own studies and the management of Aizhan.

And just during the National Day last month, Xu Yi, the founder of Bizhan, went to Kyoto to seek investment, but when he failed, he happened to be approached by Cheng Shaojie.

At that time, Cheng Shaojie proposed to acquire Bizhan, and the two negotiated a price of 200 million yuan, which was already close.

But because of Cheng Shaojie's assistant's disrespect for Two-dimensional, Xu Yi angrily rejected the acquisition.

As a result, Xu Xing successfully intercepted Hu, bought 200% of Bizhan's shares at a price of 95 million, and became the actual controller of Bizhan.

Now the beep station is still managed and operated by Xu Yi, and Xu Xing is only temporarily burning money to support it. The monthly cost of more than [-] yuan is nothing to the current Qunxing Company.

Now Qunxing Company's territory has gradually become very large.

The cash flow with the game business as the core supports the company's overall operating funds, and with WeChat's social business as the core, building a traffic pool entrance belonging to Qunxing is the core product that Xu Xing mainly controls.

These two points interact with each other, and belong to the two most important businesses of Qunxing Company, and it is also where Xu Xing spends the most energy.

Outside of this, the rest of the projects are in the stocking phase.

For the food delivery, Xu Xing only occasionally put forward some opinions on the general direction, and the actual operation is handed over to the three roommates.

The hot news has already started, and Dai Zhuoshan is responsible for promoting it. It is still in the stage of perfecting the algorithm. Although Xu Xing is very clear about the specific effect of this recommendation algorithm, the actual algorithm technology needs to be developed step by step by Dai Zhuoshan and his team. , is not such an easy thing to do.

In addition, Xu Xing didn't take much care of the investments that were far away in the capital.

Apart from asking Gong Ao to connect with several cloud computing and big data companies over there and design a system for the company, Xu Xing, a layman, didn't intervene much.

For Didi Taxi, after Dai Zhuoshan was in charge of making a taxi-hailing software for Chen Wei, Chen Wei had already begun to conquer the city in Kyoto, and was fighting against Yaoyao.

Xu Xing didn't do anything else. After all, this kind of promotion and marketing involving local promotion is not his strong point. His only action is to communicate with the user accounts of Weixin and Didi Taxi.

WeChat users in Kyoto can directly log in to Didi Dache and enjoy the taxi service.

In the same way, user accounts can be directly bound to WeChat for the food delivery platform and Bizhan, so that one account can communicate with multiple software without additional registration.

But like Eat Me and Didi Taxi, Xu Xing also has a stocking policy for Biz.

Although he has some understanding of some of the future development plans of Bizhan, but in terms of specific operations, he is definitely not a good player.

Xu Xing's idea is very simple, professional matters must be left to professional people.

So he has been waiting, waiting for the person who is most suitable to steer the beep station for him to appear.

After all, even in his previous life, that person was ridiculed and criticized by many users of the beep station, and even gave birth to many famous ridicules.

But on the development path of Bizhan, you have to admit that this guy is indeed walking on a "correct" path.

It's just that this "correctness" is probably not for users.

For any user, the free one is definitely more comfortable than the paid one, the one who can enjoy all the services without membership is better than the subscription, and the one without advertisements is definitely better than the one with advertisements...

But obviously, free prostitution is always the most expensive. When capital burns money to invite users to prostitute, in fact, fate has already anchored the price in the future.

This is true for beep stations, live broadcasting, taxi-hailing, food delivery and other fields.

It's just that the slogan chanted by the original Biz station was too ideal, which made many people have illusions about beauty.

So much so that when this illusion was shattered by the person who yelled the slogan, it seemed very ironic.

But in the final analysis, it is difficult for Xu Xing to find a more suitable candidate to take the helm of the station and help him share the energy of operation.

As a result, he has not waited for that person, but now he has waited for the acquisition intention from Aizhan.

With this in mind, Xu Xing casually clicked on the email, not too interested in the content inside.

After all, Bizhan and Aizhan are already competitors in the field of Two-dimensional video. As long as he does not intend to sell Bizhan, this acquisition intention is actually meaningless.

After opening the email, Xu Xing glanced at the content.

Sure enough, Aizhan is willing to buy Bizhan at a price of 400 million, which is double the price of Xu Xing's purchase of Bizhan last month.

Either way, it's an act of sincerity.

In one month, the return on investment has doubled. If you are an investor who is not optimistic about the future development of Bizhan, you may be happy and sell it directly.

At this time period, Bizhan has not yet fully developed, and the resources of users and up hosts are also diverted from Aizhan.

To put it bluntly, at this stage, Aizhan is still the well-deserved No. [-] big brother of domestic Two-dimensional websites.

In this case, those who don’t know the development track of Bizhan in the future may sell Bizhan directly at a whim, earning 400 million yuan, directly doubling the income, which is a completely profitable business.

It's just that in Xu Xing's place, rejection is very certain.

But just when Xu Xing was going to ask Peng Yuxuan to reply an email to decline the acquisition intention, his eyes suddenly focused on the signature of the email.

【——Aizhan CEO Chen Rui】

Xu Xing: "???"

what the hell?

Uncle, why did you surrender to the enemy?

……

In the afternoon, when he found out that Chen Rui had sent this email, Xu Xing's mind froze for a moment, and he didn't understand the logic behind it.

Could it be that because of the change of the world line, Chen Rui didn't take a fancy to Beep Station, but hooked up with Ai Station instead?
What happened in the middle?
Xu Xing looked at the inscription on [Aizhan CEO Chen Rui], pursed his lips, then looked at Peng Yuxuan, and ordered: "Speak to Dai Zhuoshan and ask him to help me check the recent news about the change of Aizhan's equity. "

"Alright Mr. Xu."

After watching Peng Yuxuan walk out of the office, Xu Xing pondered for a while, found out Xu Yi's phone number, and called him.

"Hello?" After Xu Yi answered the phone, he asked in a puzzled tone, "Mr. Xu, what's the matter?"

"Well, I received an acquisition intention from Aizhan, do you know about it?" Xu Xing asked.

"Oh, Aizhan's acquisition intention?" Xu Yi curled his lips when he heard the news, "Mr. Xu knew that he wanted to acquire Bizhan before Aizhan."

"But they didn't take the two-dimensional business seriously at all. They were just trying to attract traffic to the live broadcast business of that live broadcast."

"I received this thing a few days ago, but I didn't take it seriously, so I rejected it directly."

It's a trivial matter to refuse the acquisition. After all, even if Chen Rui came to discuss the acquisition on behalf of Aizhan, it would be impossible for Xu Xing to sell Bizhan at a low price of 400 million.

The money making is left to the game, and he doesn't invest in Bizhan just to make money.

After all, the beep station in the previous life has never been profitable from the beginning to the end, and has been burning money all the time. Xu Xing has already made preparations for the independent financing of the beep station. It is impossible for Qunxing to keep such a money-losing product.

What he really values ​​is the pan Two-dimensional user group that Bizhan can absorb in the future, as well as the hidden Two-dimensional mobile game market traffic behind it.

In addition, it is also the initial layout for him to connect to the WeChat port and set foot in the video field.

To put it bluntly, I didn't rush to make money from the beep station.

A mere 200 million in and 400 million out, Xu Xing is no longer interested in this amount of money.

What Xu Xing really cared about was Chen Rui.

"And before that? Before Aizhan sent the acquisition intention, did his CEO, Chen Rui, send an email?" Xu Xing continued to ask.

"Chen Rui?" Xu Yi thought about it carefully, "Mr. Xu, wait a moment, I checked my mailbox, I seem to have a little impression."

The sound of a chair moving came from the other end of the phone, Xu Yi sat down at his desk, opened his computer mailbox and checked.

A few minutes later, Xu Yi said: "Oh, there is an email from someone, just after the National Day."

"What did he post?" Xu Xing asked.

"He said he wanted to invest in our Bizhan." Xu Yi scratched his head, "But at that time, Bizhan got your investment from Mr. Xu, and there was no shortage of money in the account, so I directly refused."

Xu Xing: "..."

It's okay to refuse directly...

Logically speaking, this kind of investment intention must be left to him, the major shareholder, to decide.

But Bizhan was originally a grassroots team. Xu Yi just graduated from college, and has been working on Bizhan to generate electricity for love after graduation. He is not a technical expert or an operation veteran in the industry.

All kinds of rumors about the founder of Bizhan in the previous life were mostly of the unrespectable type, and the rise of Bizhan later was mainly thanks to Chen Rui.

In this regard, Xu Xing should have reminded Xu Yi before, but he was too busy during the National Day period, and later put his energy on the promotion of new games and WeChat, and part of his energy was taken up by the food delivery platform.

All kinds of things were mixed together, and he ignored it.

After all, although Chen Rui invested in Bizhan very early in his previous life, it has been 14 years since he actually joined Bizhan as CEO.

But who would have thought that after being decisively rejected by Xu Yi for investment, the current Chen Rui turned around and fell into the embrace of Aizhan.

This development is so weird that Xu Xing is still a little bit dumbfounded at the moment.

But after thinking about it, it actually makes sense.

Chen Rui came from a technical background. After graduation, he joined Jinshan Duba, and was valued by Lei Jun as a technical assistant. Later, he started his own business, and the company he established was acquired by Jinshan, and he became financially free.

Because Chen Rui himself has been a Two-dimensional since he was a child, and he is optimistic about this market, so he placed a code on the beep station.

It's just that in this life, Xu Xing intercepted the beep station in advance, leaving Chen Rui nowhere to speak, and Xu Yi directly rejected the investment.

So Chen Rui could only turn his attention to Aizhan, which is still the big brother of the Two-dimensional market.

It can only be said that fate is so wonderful sometimes.

And this also reminded Xu Xing.

Today's Qunxing Company has taken many actions. Although they are still small actions at present, if they are zoomed in from a macro perspective, each of his actions will have a very profound impact on the future direction.

In addition to the existing changes in the world line, I can no longer take it for granted to make judgments in the future, but have to combine the changes I have produced with the general direction of subsequent social and market development to analyze specific issues.

Otherwise, if you follow the context and details of the previous life and compare them, you will be asking for a sword.

But at this time, facing Xu Xing's sudden silence, Xu Yi on the other end of the phone was a little uneasy.

"Mr. Xu, are you planning to sell the beep station?" Xu Yi tentatively asked with a little worry, "Our future development prospects are still very good, Mr. Xu, you have to think again."

Xu Yi was very repulsed by the current management of Aizhan because of Cheng Shaojie's assistant.

If Bizhan really falls into the hands of Aizhan, it will definitely not end well.

He himself is a two-dimensional otaku, but his family is richer, which has supported him to maintain the beep station until now, and was taken over by Xu Xing.

Xu Yi really didn't want it to fall into the hands of bad people for Bizhan, a paradise exclusively for Two-dimensional users.

"Don't worry, it won't be sold." Xu Xing gave him a reassurance, said a few more words, and hung up the phone.

Although it will not be sold, Xu Xing will not change his idea of ​​changing the helm of the station.

After understanding the basic situation at Xu Yi's side, Xu Xing put down his phone, took a deep breath, looked at the email on the computer, thought for a while, and began to reply to the message.

Anyway, let's make an appointment with Chen Rui first, it's always possible to get to know each other.

……

----------

On the evening of the weekend, Xu Xing finished his overtime work in the company and returned to the shared room exhausted.

When he entered, he answered the phone.

So he said while changing his slippers, "Okay, then let's see you tonight, just send me the address on WeChat."

After finishing speaking, Xu Xing hung up the phone.

Wearing an apron and holding a spatula in his hand, Xu Niannian tied his long hair into a ponytail, exposing his snow-white neck and collarbone, and poked his head out of the kitchen suspiciously: "See you tonight? Are you looking for a woman outside? "

"Are you sick? Meet a future partner." Xu Xing gave her a blank look, stepped on his slippers and walked to the kitchen, and added halfway, "Men."

"It's the weekend and you're still so busy? Are you still going out to meet people at night?" Seeing the fatigue on his face, Xu Niannian couldn't help frowning, "Is it important? Do you want me to go with you?"

"What are you going for?"

"Be your secretary." Xu Niannian winked at him, and said playfully, "I've been drawing materials for a game recently, and I just bought a hip skirt and black silk~"

"Isn't your dress-up game based on traditional costumes from all over the world?" Xu Xing was speechless, "Where did the hip-wrapped skirt and black silk come from?"

"Don't worry about collecting materials." Xu Niannian blushed slightly and gave him a look, then continued to ask, "So do you want me to be your secretary?"

"I'm not playing tricks when I go to talk to people." Xu Xing thought of Xu Niannian's long legs wearing a hip skirt and black silk, and felt that walking became a bit difficult, but he still refused, " You two should stay at home, if you really want to wear it, just wear it at home."

Having said that, Xu Xing walked into the kitchen smelling the scent, looked at Yanchi vinegar who was cooking inside, and asked curiously: "You guys today the sun came out from the west? Instead of eating hot pot, cook instead?"

"Don't look, don't look!" Seeing him looking into the pot, Xu Niannian quickly covered his eyes with his hands, "You can only watch when we are done."

"What the hell?" Xu Xing was pushed back to the living room by her, "I can't watch you guys cooking?"

"Just wait and eat later." Xu Niannian said with a chuckle.

……

Twenty minutes later, Xu Xing sat on the edge of the dining table, looking at the two dishes and one soup.

A tomato scrambled egg.

A serving of sweet and sour pork ribs.

There is also a bowl of green vegetable soup.

"Come, come, try it." Xu Niannian handed over the chopsticks and stuffed them into Xu Xing's hands, "I made the tomato scrambled eggs and the sweet and sour pork ribs separately from vinegar and vinegar. You can eat them and guess who made them." of."

Yan Chijiu on the side was still wearing an apron, standing aside and looking at Xu Xing expectantly, with her small hands pinched nervously on her chest, she was still very nervous when cooking for Xu Xing for the first time.

"You don't know how to eat dead people?" Xu Xing was a little hesitant, looking at the two dishes in front of him, just looking at the color, it seemed like that.

"Is that how you talk when you cook for you?" Xu Niannian said dissatisfiedly, "Hurry up and evaluate after eating."

"Okay." Xu Xing raised his chopsticks with difficulty, swinging between sweet and sour pork ribs and tomato scrambled eggs.

Every time the chopsticks were moved, Xu Niannian and Yan Chijiu felt nervous, hoping that Xu Xing could eat the dishes they cooked first.

As a result, Xu Xing wandered around, put his chopsticks directly into the vegetable soup, unhurriedly picked up a leaf of vegetable, stuffed it into his mouth and chewed it carefully.

"Well...it tastes good."

"By the way, who cooked this soup?"
