Reborn Entrepreneurial Giant.

Qu Li's misfortune does not mean that others will be unlucky. Meituan acquired Baidu Nuomi and takeout business, gained a new traffic entrance, and basically established its position as the industry leader. However, Dianping, which Goose Factory invested in, was unlucky. , Shiguang Jumei is also one of the shareholders.

Dianping’s venture capital shareholders contacted Time Jumei and wanted them to acquire it. Qu Li was opposed to this. The O2O business was of little value to them, and the “omnipotent” Time Jumei was not in line with most people’s expectations. Benefit.

Time Jumei doesn’t want it. Goose Factory has shrunk its business and turned to entertainment, film and television and investment. Obviously, it won’t want it. There is only one Ali left. Dianping’s own traffic value and group buying business exceed Ali’s reputation. Dianping and Ele.com This combination should be no worse than Meituan Nuomi and Baidu Takeout.

It can be said that Goose Factory is unlucky. Their name as the largest online game company in China is about to be replaced by NetEase. Among the top 10 games in the country, NetEase represents Blizzard's Warcraft and Hearthstone. Goose Factory has CrossFire, DNF and Jedi. For battle royale, Perfect World has DOTA2 and CS:Go, and Kingsoft has the top-ranked League of Legends and the 10th-ranked Jian Wang 3.

As for the globally famous "Minecraft", Microsoft has repeatedly wanted to acquire it. Wu Shihong agreed to sell overseas copyrights after consulting Qu Li.The reason is very simple. It is difficult for Kingsoft to develop international markets. Only Microsoft can fully utilize its value.

The entire game was sold for 230 billion US dollars, which is about 35 billion US dollars. Even after tax is deducted, it can still leave about 200 billion in cash. Kingsoft is not planning to pay dividends, but will continue to invest in cloud computing and consolidate its foundation.

Because of this unexpected income, Kingsoft's market value has risen to more than HK$2000 billion, making it a small Internet giant.However, there was a lot of internal dissatisfaction. Wu Shihong did not fully solicit internal opinions. Zhou Tao and Qu Li's brother-in-law Chen Ke were both dissatisfied with her.

In fact, there are many people who are dissatisfied with Wu Shihong. Although he sold Master Key and "Minecraft" to Kingsoft, although he raised a large amount of cash and cloud computing received financial support at a critical moment in its development, this was achieved in a way that "damaged the company's potential." of.

Someone complained to Qu Li about Wu Shihong, but Qu Li ignored them. Who said that every decision of the CEO must be correct? The country is very determined to restrict the development of games. The probability of those money-making games appearing is getting lower and lower. Everyone should see that this trend.

Games are important, but for Kingsoft, the office software represented by WPS is a symbol that cannot be given up.With the outbreak of the Lingjing Gate incident, China is paying more and more attention to network security. Kingsoft's enterprise security business quickly stood out and now ranks first in the industry.Not to mention cloud computing, which is standard for large enterprises and is a future-oriented investment like artificial intelligence.

Kingsoft makes money from games, but the status of the game company does not get the "respect" it deserves, and conflicts arise. When Qu Li was around, no one dared to target him. When he was gone, Wu Shihong became the "target of public criticism."

Goose Factory Games faces NetEase, Kingsoft and Perfect World on the PC side. On the mobile side, TimeJumei takes the lead, but they have many game studios and have also acquired shares of Unreal Engine from Honor.

It’s not that Qu Li disdains Unreal Engine, it’s that their founder doesn’t want to become a vassal of Honor, especially since they already have Unity, so Honor has no choice but to sell it.If the goose factory is willing to pay, then sell it to them.Not only game engines, Goose Factory has also acquired many mobile game developers, but the investment scale is not large.

Without WeChat, the number of mobile QQ users is still growing, but Gouchang is only a second-rate company, almost the same as Baidu. A duopoly pattern of Time Jumei and Ali has formed in China.Each looked for a way out, and Ali chose to go to sea and fight with Shijimei in Southeast Asia.

Goose Factory chooses gaming, entertainment, film and television, and financial investments. It previously acquired Shengtian Literature, and now it has not only invested in Xiaoma, but also Wanda Cinema, and invested heavily in Goose Factory Video.Youku, Tudou, iQiyi and Goosechang Video are the top four long-form video websites in China. It is definitely not feasible to buy copyrights by spending money, and we cannot engage in monopoly series. We have to make homemade dramas, variety shows, and buy the copyrights for live sports broadcasts.

Youku is also unable to survive and needs capital injection or acquisition from Time Jumei. Compared with being a hard-working CEO of a listed company, Gu Yong is really interested in building a future within Time Jumei.After Qu Li acquired Goudong, the founder Dadongzi still held a high position of authority, which shows that Qu Li is tolerant of others.

As for Baidu iQiyi, it is surviving on Baidu's abundant cash flow, but Baidu also needs to transform. The mobile Internet era has been a step slower. Now it has given up on e-commerce and group purchase takeout, but it has become Ctrip. The major shareholder also has a video website, which is obviously not enough, so Li Yanhong chose mobile plus AI.

Of course, the Big Four, plus Kingsoft and Juhua Factory, have all entered the cloud computing market.

In addition to the four giants, there are also four smaller giants: Kingsoft, NetEase, Didi and Meituan. Others are more distinctive, such as Byte, Kuaishou, Ctrip and 365.

Time Jumei is outstanding among them, with almost no weaknesses, but now it seems a bit bulky, a bit slow to respond to the outside world, and has been doing its own thing.If we hadn’t invested in Didi and Meituan, we would have almost forgotten their actions in online ride-hailing and group-buying food delivery.Moreover, it is somewhat behind in the sharing economy and online live streaming, and its ideas in AR/VR and unmanned retail are somewhat behind the times.

Obviously, their innovation ability is very outstanding, but WeChat and Instagram have conquered cities abroad, but their response in China seems to be half a beat slow, and Time Jumei has been questioned because of this.Of course, the stock prices that continue to hit new highs prove that the capital market recognizes them.

The market value of Time Jumei and Glory both exceeded US$3000 billion. Qu Li became the first super-rich man in the world with a net worth of more than US$2000 billion. At this time, the outside world's perception of him began to reverse, from feeling honored to feeling "fearful". It turns out that one person can be so rich!

Forced, Qu Li had to cash out several billion dollars in advance, reducing his shareholding ratio in the two companies to less than 30%.These funds were added to the Fanxing Fund account and invested in Galaxy Power, Oasis Ecology, as well as biopharmaceutical companies that make vaccines, and companies that make NIL lithography machines...

The most important thing is to do charity, environmental protection and poverty alleviation. There are too many people asking Qu Li to donate money, both at home and abroad. There are also people who engage in moral kidnapping. For example, someone said online: "So many rich people across the country donate to Xifu University." , He is the only one who has nothing to lose." You must know that among the founders of Xifu University, Professor Pan and Wang Jian both had connections with him to steal money.

"Western University contacted me at the beginning of its preparations, and I rejected it directly at that time. If they were an industry-university-research university, similar to Stanford, I would support them settling in Hangzhou. But as a research-oriented university, they chose Hangzhou. Such a prosperous city, I don’t know how they balance scientific research and life..."

"If you have a choice..." Qu Li really couldn't hold it back, but every time he spoke, he caused a huge storm of public opinion.
Not long after, when someone took a screenshot and saved it, Qu Li deleted the message. (End of chapter)
