Reboot 2003

Chapter 260 039: Quarrel (two in one)

This matter is actually not urgent. After all, the conversation that I accidentally heard just now is not important. I just know that the other party already understands this matter.

However, from a quick perspective, this is one of the few ways to deal with A Yue, an opponent who is young but actually has no flaws. And for some reason, Zhou Hongyi's company is clearly in Lin'an, but it is right there. I came to Yanjing today. According to the rumors I heard before, Zhou Dapao is not popular in the industry, so it is really strange that he would take the initiative to participate in such an event.

Of course, this is just a guess. Maybe he just came here for a stroll and didn't think much about it at all. He might even have come to watch the Taimiao concert. People who work on the Internet also have to pursue spiritual life.

But just in case, Chen Qin got things done in advance. He called A Yue over in the middle of the night and worked in the conference room for several hours. In short, he smoothed out the studio's income and expenditure accounts, although there were many I didn’t bring any information, such as looking for music and art outsourcing contracts, but it was just a precaution, and that was enough.

After the things were done, it was already two o'clock in the morning. A Yue seemed to be dozed off. She yawned and lay down next to Chen Qin. The two adults went to register for a new room, but the children were not asleep, and they were too embarrassed to go to rest. , and then stayed on the other side of the conference room waiting.

Seeing that the two of them had finally finished their work, Chen Qin looked up and saw them. Chen Qin explained: "I'm sorry, it's really something special..."

Mr. Gu had no objection anymore. He stood up and said it was okay, and asked if he wanted to have a midnight snack. His uncle came in from outside and looked at A Yue sleeping on the table. He suddenly laughed: "This studio of yours is so messy." You have to look pretty cool!"

Anyway, that's it. After working overtime that night, the two of them got up late the next day.

At ten o'clock in the morning, Ma Yun called and said that he would send a car to pick him up. Ayue knocked on Chen Qin's door and called him to get up for breakfast.

When Chen Qin opened the door, he had dark circles under his eyes and a sleepy look on his face. Ah Yue looked at him and laughed for some reason.

I just said I was going to buy clothes to prepare, but I canceled because I was too pressed for time.

Just like that, I put on my casual clothes and went downstairs to catch the pick-up car. From the ordinary hotel where I stayed to the host hotel of the organizer, Ma Yun was already waiting at the door.

After arriving at the scene, there were suddenly more people.

The party was almost the same as the last class reunion, but of course the situation was probably different - last time A Yue came over to meet these uncles and aunts, had a meal together in private and then left. In fact, she did not directly attend the class reunion. formal event.

This time we arrived at the hotel door, and the social activities began to increase. An adult came to talk to Ayue, asking if you remember your uncle?A Yue obviously didn't remember.

Some adults who don’t understand social games asked her which platform her online games were operated on, and some mature-looking peers came to get to know her. As soon as they met, they took out a formal business card and exchanged it with her, but Ayue I only have a QQ number.

A Yue didn't know how to deal with these social events, and because her own story had already gained some fame, other people came to her, and Mr. Gu couldn't stop them all for her.

Fortunately, Uncle Ma was considerate enough and took her into the venue himself. He told others that I had watched A Yue grow up, and also boasted about how powerful the game A Yue made was and how many professional companies could not catch up with it.

During this period, someone asked Chen Qin who he was. Chen Qin said: "I am Mr. Gu's think tank!" The adults laughed.

Just like that, we entered the hotel amidst laughter and laughter, and then the 'class reunion' was about to officially begin...

At this time, A Yue could barely relax.

It is said to be an MBA class reunion and a business exchange organization mainly for young entrepreneurs. Of course, it cannot just be a two-fisted toast.

Of course, she was still not used to socializing, but after her speech at the class reunion, she quickly began to discuss industry information, and soon talked about what she was interested in——

This class reunion has a fairly clear theme, called 'Economic Blueprint in Turmoil and Change'.

This name is quite emotional, but the meaning is quite clear. The recent macroeconomic situation is not good, and China has also been affected. Since 03, China has been very successful as the world's factory. Last year, two-thirds of the country's GDP comes from exports. As a result, the economic crisis hit. Exports dropped sharply month-on-month this year, and various difficulties followed.

Ah Yue followed Uncle Ma to sit at the middle round table. Liu Chengzhi, as the host on the stage, finished speaking, and then it was time for everyone to take the stage to speak——

The first person to take the stage was none other than Sun Xiaomei, the boss of Galaxy Software.

Sun Xiaomei didn't come to the last class reunion because she had something to do, but this time she was the first to take the stage to give a speech. When she took the stage, everyone applauded and everyone looked forward to it.

After all, now that the economy is in recession, the hottest industry is definitely the Internet.

Although Galaxy Software has not yet been launched on the market and everyone does not understand its business model, it has become so famous in the past few years and has been recruiting people. Everyone knows that her business is good, so now she can show everyone the way.

However, with such expectation, Sun Xiaomei came up and talked about their company's Kaitian system.

Of course, this is actually possible. After all, Academician Li from the Science Bureau was promoting this everywhere last year. At that luncheon, he even read an introduction on the spot.

At that time, everyone had no idea what he was talking about, but this year not only did everyone see a successful precedent, the Kaitian OS was actually completely free and open source...

It also coincides with the lifting of mobile phone license restrictions, and the three major operators have obtained 3G licenses this year.

So far, this seems to be a shortcut to enter the mobile phone market - the value of this thing has certainly been proven. Not only has the 'Galaxy Network Phone' been successful, the Guazi mobile phone seems to be selling well.

What's more, it seems that the 'Galaxy Network Phone' is not going to be released again. There is a big market for low-end mobile phones. Isn't this waiting for everyone to do it?

An industrial boss sighed with emotion: "This mobile phone system will probably be built by the galaxy..."

Someone else said: "I remember hearing Mr. Liu say that one of the difficulties in making mobile phones now is the mobile OS. If this Kaitian is successful, it will be a good thing for everyone."

Someone else combined with current affairs: "It seems that Apple and Google are also doing this recently, but they can't compete with them. Apple recently lost the lawsuit, and Google recently released a G1 mobile phone, but no one is using it..."

After mentioning the content she was interested in, A Yue also had something to say. She bravely took out her mobile phone and said, "I also bought a Guazi mobile phone. It's very useful."

However, after he finished speaking, the scene became cold. The few people who had just wanted to respond felt that the atmosphere was a bit strange.

Ma Yun smiled and taught her: "Ah Yue, what we are discussing is business trends. It is not the same thing as whether the product is easy to use or not. You should also learn this."

Deng Wendi thoughtfully said: "If we talk about the future, Kaitian is actually not very good. After all, technology accumulation is not just about patents. Now Kaitian only relies on patents to win the victory for a while. No one knows what will happen in the future."

Mr. Liu from Lenovo came back and sat next to him. At this time, he said indifferently: "According to our professional evaluation, the operating efficiency of Kaitian's system is still worse than that of Google, and the security performance is not as good as Apple's. In fact, if I have to say , there is still some distance between us and the top in the world.”

Some people are curious: "Mr. Liu, I heard that you support Kaitian. It seems that you made a mobile phone?"

"Yes, construction has started this year." Liu Chengzhi said, "However, the suppliers do not seem to support Kaitian's software system. We continue to use Kaitian's entirely to support domestic products, but considering the future trend, there is no guarantee that they will always be used.”

After hearing this, the entrepreneurs all praised Mr. Liu for his great layout. A Yue felt a little uncomfortable when she heard this.

Subconsciously he looked at the little think tank accompanying him: "Chen Qin, who is more powerful in the mobile phone system now?"

Chen Qin was also looking around. He was looking for Zhou Hongyi. After entering the venue for a long time, Zhou Hongyi never came to talk to A Yue. After looking carefully, he was on the other side, but he was not sitting with Lei Jun. He was just talking to a few people. An unknown entrepreneur spoke as if everyone was really just seriously participating in this class reunion...

That's fine. Chen Qin didn't say much, and honestly acted as his own think tank with A Yue: "Whatever you think is useful, it's true that business trends are still uncertain. There was no company like Google ten years ago. Aren’t they also technology giants now?”

Ah Yue asked him in a low voice: "But I just said that Kaitian is not good. In fact, I also heard that Google's system is better than Kaitian, but the mobile phone produced by Google does not seem to be very good..."

"Not only is it not very good, it is simply too bad." Chen Qin said, "Google actually has two systems. Recently they released a mobile phone that uses their self-developed Android system. The mobile phone is called Google G1, but that system In order to avoid patent castration, many functions have been cut off, and the design is relatively rubbish. It was officially launched last month, and now it is no longer available." Ayue nodded: "But Apple has never filed a lawsuit, does it mean that both of them are Lost?"

"Actually, they won too."

"Ah? Why? Did the galaxy lose?"

Chen Qindao: "Of course Galaxy has not lost. It has almost become an industry standard now. Guazi mobile phones are also selling well. We have so many patents in our hands. If this is considered a loss, then no one can win."

"Then Apple and Google..."

"Apple has its own ecosystem. They have a lot of experience as the second largest company in the industry, so they are definitely not afraid of this." Chen Qin said, "As for Google, although their mobile phones died suddenly, this is actually a good thing for them."

A Yue was confused: "Is it a good thing if mobile phones are not selling well?"

Chen Qin explained: "For mobile phone manufacturers, if the mobile phone system they use is made by a competitor, they will definitely consider the future competition space and worry that their products will be stumbling upon others."

"So..." A Yue tried to summarize her point of view, "Google's mobile phones have suddenly died, and they no longer compete with these manufacturers, so the OS systems they produce are naturally more attractive than Kaitian..."

"Yes, so all three companies are winners. Although they are competing now, this is competition within large-screen mobile phones. The real losers are traditional mobile phones, but no one cares about their life or death anymore."

Ah Yue understood, but asked in a low voice: "Then why don't Uncle Liu and the others seem to like Kai Tian very much?"

Chen Qin scratched his head. He roughly knew that Kaitian System did not accept investment some time ago and did not respond to national projects. Although he had good intentions, some people seemed unhappy.

However, I don’t know how to explain this matter, and the people speaking on the podium also became busy with the ups and downs. While they were talking, Sun Xiaomei got off the stage after finishing her speech.

As the emcee presided over the ceremony, the next person to take the stage was Mengniu’s boss Niu, who was sitting next to him.Boss Niu was talking and laughing normally just now, but now he calmed down and walked up.

"Dear classmates, distinguished guests, ladies and gentlemen, good afternoon!"

Everyone clapped as before, and A-Yue also clapped. In the harmonious and friendly atmosphere, A-Yue was still listening carefully. She thought this person was coming to share his industry experience just like Sun Xiaomei just now. of.

But not this time.

"Thank you very much for meeting you here. I don't know if you have paid attention to the online news. Recently, a big event happened in our Tianchao Dairy Industry..."

As he spoke, Lao Niu said sadly: "That's the Sanlu Infant Milk Powder Incident! Since the accident, the Sanlu Infant Milk Powder Incident has disturbed the lives of everyone in China, causing the pain of babies, the tears of mothers, and the scolding of consumers. , it all makes me heartbroken..."

The atmosphere suddenly became heavy, and everyone was talking about it. Speaking of this, Ah Yue looked at Chen Qin again...

It's not that Chen Qin didn't know, it was just that he was too busy yesterday and forgot to watch what happened afterwards. But wasn't the reaction of these people a bit big?
But things are quite simple.

Through discussions with other people at the same table, both of them quickly understood that this incident happened last night. The government suddenly activated the level 2 response mechanism for security incidents. Sanlu milk has been directly banned from sale, but the Internet The exposure on the Internet started a week ago, and the situation at that time was already a bit out of control.Coupled with the news that the media had left one after another yesterday, today is actually an outbreak period.

After hearing this, A Yue said to Chen Qin: "I know this. It seems that the milk powder is mixed with dangerous chemicals, right? Mengniu seems to have been affected as well. Maybe we can ask everyone to work together to supervise improvements."

Chen Qin said to her: "Yes, but that's probably not what they are discussing. Anyway, you will know after listening to it."

Boss Niu on the stage continued his speech, talking about the impact of this incident and Mengniu's handling of the incident - he said that Mengniu's internal staff were also surprised by this incident. The Mengniu community itself drank Mengniu milk every day, and there was no deliberate intention. The situation of giving consumers tainted milk.

But here’s the problem. Investors seem to be reacting a bit too much now. Just before today’s incident, Mengniu’s stock price had dropped 30% and was forced to suspend trading. Now it has been determined by the government. It was also mentioned in the announcement. It’s incredible how much it will drop after the resumption of trading. I dare not even think about it.

However, Mengniu has a betting agreement with Morgan Stanley. If the stock price continues to fall, a considerable amount of equity will fall into the hands of foreigners. If foreigners continue to increase their stakes, Mengniu may be subject to a hostile takeover by foreign capital.

By then...his personal power will be insignificant, but now Mengniu is related to the national economy and people's livelihood. If it falls into the hands of foreigners, the consequences will be disastrous...

A Yue asked: "What is Damo?"

"It's a beautiful and strong investment bank. It was an original investor in Mengniu. Recently, it was hit by a thunderstorm because it bought the wrong financial product. It was just taken over by the government and it took a lot of blood to avoid bankruptcy."

A Yue asked again: "What does Mengniu need money for?"

"Probably use money to raise their stocks, just like what you wanted to do with Kuaikan Media." Chen Qin ate melon seeds. "Although they don't need to raise financing now, if the stock price is too low, they will lose the bet. At that time, the company’s surname will no longer be Niu.”

A Yue nodded: "But if the company is controlled by foreigners, it may be very dangerous. This request is quite reasonable."

Then he whispered: "But why are they not careful? They have obviously done something that will harm others, and now they are asking others to pay for their stocks. I was embarrassed to say it last time..."

With that said, A Yue did not seem to be able to directly sympathize with Lao Niu's tearful accusation on the stage. However, the adults at the scene seemed to be excited by this. Before Lao Niu finished speaking, the host Liu Chengzhi stood up from his position and his men He quickly handed over the microphone:

"Lenovo Group is willing to pay 2 million!"

Others around him applauded eagerly. Amidst the applause, someone on the other side also stood up: "I, New Oriental, are willing to offer 5000 million!"

"Focus also offers 5000 million!"

……

The alumni donated generously one after another, and the scene was enthusiastic. The old man on the stage was so moved that one old man burst into tears.

A Yue clapped her hands and looked curiously, but she felt Chen Qin pat her arm. A Yue looked back and suddenly understood what he meant and stopped clapping.

Of course, no one cared about her opinion as a junior high school girl, but at this moment, someone in the venue suddenly shouted: "Mr. Sun of Xingxing, you are so good at developing national industries, at least you can't pay less than the others!"

Everyone looked at Sun Xiaomei, who had just spoken. It seemed that she had just gotten used to it. The organizer's staff handed Liu Chengzhi's microphone to Sun Xiaomei's hand.

Sun Xiaomei was a little embarrassed for a moment and didn't know how to answer. Lao Niu on the stage quickly smoothed things over: "This is all voluntary. Mengniu has received everyone's thoughts. Even if it is just a word of encouragement, I, Niu, will remember it in my heart today!"

But the man sarcastically said: "But Galaxy, they shouldn't contribute money? It's okay to stab someone in the back, and it's okay to make a lot of money in the U.S. stock market. Now Mengniu is about to be taken over by a hostile foreign investor. Who doesn't know who is behind this incident? Mr. Sun Are you doing this because you want to learn from Meilijian and make money by shorting our own company?"

The others gasped and saw that the person speaking was the boss of a midstream dairy company. They probably knew what was going on. Someone at the same table said: "It seems that the scandal was revealed on Weibo. He seems to think that Galaxy Software is Are you deliberately causing trouble?..."

"That being said..."

The others started discussing in low voices, and A-Yue also frowned. She still liked Galaxy Software, but after all, she was a quiet person, and she didn't dare to speak now. As she was whispering to Chen Qin, Sun Xiaomei was holding a microphone not far away. , but then replied: "Mr. Niu has to keep the company, and I have to be responsible for the company's investors. As far as I know, Mr. Niu has cashed out and left early. How can I dare to get into your Mengniu's fire pit again? You want to If you are so messy, then I have no choice but to stop accompanying you!"

Sun Xiaomei had a good temper and it didn't sound like she was quarreling, but until she turned around and walked away, taking away a large group of people from Shencheng and related companies, she went straight out; the others were shocked and originally enthusiastic The bustling class reunion venue suddenly became empty.
