Reboot 2003

Chapter 161 069: Familiar faces
"...You are really young and promising. We haven't seen a boss as big as you. Now you are a big company with a market value of hundreds of millions..."

"Wherever you are, just do something you like with your friends..."

"The first time we saw you was at the donation ceremony for this year's Olympics, right?"

"...During that time, the Olympics were very popular. Many people came to work wearing torch shirts. Xiao Lu from the marketing department happened to be looking for endorsements, so he voted for our favorite Olympian..."

"Haha, it seems like a casual company. So what kind of products is your company producing now?"

The talk show is going on as normal.

It is an interview with ordinary industry figures, and it will not talk about extra deep things.

It's just that there are not many people who can surf the Internet now, and IT technology has always been synonymous with high-end in the eyes of the public.

Especially Galaxy software now involves such a complex and huge product line involving many different fields...

After getting to the point, it took Sun Xiaomei just [-] minutes to explain 'what does our company do'.

Considering that we will talk about industry views and future trends of the Internet industry, we must set aside 10 minutes for the finale.

So only a few minutes left to 'get down to business'.

During this period, the moderator asked two questions——

"Your company's products include so many categories, what is the one-stop design concept? For example, although there is music on one side and input methods on the other, I think every company has a spirit. Do you think this spirit what is it then?"

When asked here, Sun Xiaomei, who had answered dully before, seemed to have suddenly opened up——

She replied fluently: "I think it is the spirit of the Internet... free, open, and shared."

"Based on the spirit of free, we create tools that are free to use."

"Based on the spirit of openness, we founded Galaxy Music, and entered the digital music industry from a place that was beyond the reach of the previous commercial system."

"It is also out of the spirit of equality that we created the Waterside Getai, so that the public can have a platform to easily develop music hobbies regardless of their background."

"Although only a little work has been done, and these tools themselves may not have commercial value, but the spirit of the Internet has attracted users to us, I think our work is valuable..."

Sun Xiaomei talked eloquently, and the host nodded again and again. He thought the answer was good, but it was not the answer to the question he wanted to ask.

So he asked the second question——

"Okay, it seems that the Internet is really something that can change our lives drastically."

"But why does your galaxy music involve so many industries?"

"Your galaxy software started out as an input method and browser, then as a streaming media player, then as music, and as an online audio and video website..."

"Why are so many products produced in such a short period of time? Is it because of the requirements of investors? Or because you saw a business opportunity in a new field, so you changed the direction of the company's development?"

Sun Xiaomei on the screen seemed to be in a daze for two seconds, as if she also remembered that she also asked the boss this question...

But now she knew the answer.

"Actually not." Sun Xiaomei replied, "Although we have set foot in the music industry, I think we are still an Internet company, and software is still our main development direction. Waterside Getai will also be a technology platform rather than a content monopoly."

The host nodded, and Sun Xiaomei said, "In addition, I actually think there is a business logic that everyone doesn't understand."

She said seriously: "In the Internet field... no, in fact, it is the same in other industries besides the Internet field."

"Once we have more than 50% share in an industry, no matter how hard we try, we can't double the share of the company."

The host wondered: "That's why so many industries are developed at the same time?"

Sun Xiaomei nodded: "Yes, once we develop to a certain scale in our own territory, we must find new growth points. This is our development model."

She began to make gestures with her hands—"So we started to get into other people's trades, and sometimes we got into trouble, like waking sleeping bears, who would come out of their woods, They chased us down our armor."

Sun Xiaomei seemed to have made a not-so-funny joke. After she finished speaking, she stared at the host with piercing eyes.

The host frowned after hearing this, this metaphor...

However, he vaguely felt that he might not have really understood this seemingly simple and easy-to-understand truth, and the time was almost up.

Next, the topic entered some general environment and industry discussions as planned, and then the program ended normally.

A day later, the show aired as planned, and immediately caused quite a stir.

Is this galaxy software looking for death?

A large number of reporters began to make calls to the PR office of Galaxy Software, and posts like "Galaxy Software CEO mocking China Mobile" also appeared in some forums and communities.

Not only is there a lot of discussion outside, but even the senior executives inside Galaxy Software, who were already worried, feel their scalps go numb...

It is really not a wise decision to provoke the communication company. Before, Galaxy Music seemed to want to stand in line with China Telecom.

It seemed that a well-known big bang was about to happen, and everyone was waiting to watch the excitement, but they also vaguely felt that something was wrong—after this interview, the relevant communication providers did not respond. The peers in the industry who were very interested in the China Mobile dispute did not respond. They seemed to think that this matter did not exist, but they stared out curiously.

While waiting, it seemed that someone couldn't hold back.

A familiar face jumped out first...

"What do you say about the Internet spirit? Some people just say one thing and do another!"

"Since it's free, don't hang such an obvious fee sign on every web page, you're all free, dare you?"

"Since you want to open up, don't do the dirty things of buying list marketing all day long."

"If you want to share it, you just take other people's stuff and sell it on your own website? He Galaxy Music owns more than half of the CRBT revenue. Why don't you share it with others?"

"Although I, Gao Xiaosong, am only a songwriter, I don't understand those high-end terms they use to engage in IT."

"But I can't stand these businessmen who talk one way and another in reality. If you make money, you make money. It's really contemptible to talk about those glamorous things!"

Before the disputes in the CRBT market had not yet settled, Gao Xiaosong, as the mouthpiece of Carrian CRBT and some stakeholders, sprayed galaxy music in many places.

During the period, it was said that galaxy music squeezed resources and did not give low-level musicians a chance to rise.

But Galaxy Music basically ignored him. Later, after the emergence of Shuixie Getai, the digital music market entered a new field. He felt that the wind was not good, so he didn't dare to show up again...Of course, because the interested party withdrew, he also There is no longer any qualification to continue publicly scolding.

But this time Galaxy Software is facing a catastrophe, and Sun Xiaomei happened to talk about the spirit of the Internet.

But it just coincided with the sarcastic words he said a month ago——

Teacher Xiaosong jumped out almost immediately, with a posture of following through to the end.

But Galaxy Software was not to be outdone, and quickly responded in public.

Explained the nature of the copyright issue in the first place, it does seem to be user behavior and has nothing to do with Galaxy software.

On the contrary, he said that Mr. Xiaosong secretly hired someone to pour paint on the door of Galaxy Music, and he has reported it to the police, so you just wait to get involved.

The tone is not fierce, and the means are not very clever.

But no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like you are going to die. Instead, you patiently quarrel with him, looking very leisurely.And after a few days of quarreling like this, Mr. Xiaosong, who thought he was beating the dog in the water, quarreled and quarreled, but he didn't wait for someone from the business circle to come to speak for him.
