Reborn Entrepreneurial Giant

Chapter 241 Huang Zheng \u0026 WeChat

I thought that I was the protagonist of the era, and the fools were easy to catch. Even a big man like Lei Jun joined Glory. I didn't expect to fail one after another with Yu Jun and Zhang Xiaolong. One wanted to go abroad for retirement, and the other didn't. Leave the penguins.

Although Goose City's big factory is not ideal, it gives a lot of money and first-class benefits. Let alone domestic, there are very few elites in the world who can not bend their waists for five buckets of rice. Qu Li can understand Zhang Xiaolong's choice, but Yu Jun is about to resign from Baidu and leave, and he doesn't want to have anything to do with him, which is a bit hurtful.

"You want to do instant messaging by yourself?" Lei Jun asked after seeing Qu Li's abnormality

"Even if you know something will fail, you will never be reconciled if you don't try it."

A little more normal people see that WeChat has become a national software, and the offline payment share of WeChat exceeds 60%. If they still hesitate to do it, it is really unreasonable. The key to the problem is not whether to do it, but who to do it. Can not benefit.

Qu Li didn’t want to do WeChat before because B2C e-commerce like Jumei is more important and meaningful; it’s not because of the ability to make money. In 2021, the national online retail sales will exceed 1.3 billion, of which Taobao will account for 8.5 trillion and Godong will account for 3.2 trillion. Related industries have absorbed and created more than 67 million jobs...

In short, WeChat can increase the upper limit of an enterprise, but e-commerce has broken the information barrier and can become the foundation of a country in a historical period. Later on the Internet, Taobao is not dead, and women are not rich, who is rich? Of course, they are profiteers who create information barriers.

"Such an app should be good for Glory, why don't we let Glory do it?" Although Lei Jun didn't think WeChat could succeed, Qu Li couldn't rely on common sense to judge. In case, he didn't want to miss this opportunity .

"Honor is a smartphone, and an operating system will be developed in the future. I don't think there is any need to do it myself, except for high-frequency and unprofitable tool apps. What we want to do is a cross-platform, cross-regional instant messaging app..."

"Are you going to develop for IOS and Symbian?"

"Roughly the same."

It is said that Symbian is the most operating system on mobile phones in this era. It has a long battery life and smooth use. Unfortunately, it is not developed for touch screens, and software development and installation are more troublesome. It is destined to be eliminated in the future, but it still has to be developed. As for Windows Phone, forget it.

Just do it when you think of it, he sent an email to a few people he likes in Jumei: "From the 1990s to the present, there have been more than one billion Internet users worldwide, but I think the emergence of the mobile Internet will accelerate the growth of the Internet. The number of Internet users may exceed 3 billion within 10 years, so I want to develop an instant messaging app based on the mobile Internet that can have more than 1 billion users..."

Huang Zheng was the first to reply to his email: I want to participate. Several others said they wanted to know more, but no one directly refused.

Qu Li continued to send emails. The company's main business is e-commerce. Joining this project only has a basic salary, and there may be no bonus for a long time. If it fails, it is equivalent to wasting several years of growth during the critical period of Jumei's growth. time. In case of success, I'm not sure how valuable this APP is...

Huang Zheng was the first one to reply, no need to choose, just him, there is a reason for his success, you can't lie on the bed and send hundreds of billions to him, right?

Qu Li quickly appointed Huang Zheng to set up a development team in Yangcheng. In the early stage, it must be aimed at the European, American, Japanese and Korean markets. As for the reason, the construction of the domestic 3G network has just started.

Talk to Lu Qi, this is a trivial matter, only a few people, and we will talk about it in detail when he returns to Yangcheng.

"Why don't you let them work in Beijin?" Lei Jun asked curiously

"That's not why I ask for instructions every day, how can I be lazy?"

"..."

"Glory, Jumei, one south and one north, you can't just be lazy, right?"

"You just know?"

Lei Jun entered Glory, knew a lot of inside information, and also knew the power of capital. Whoever said that Glory is a start-up company really wants to beat him. In the beginning, without Lehman, operators and supply chains would not trust Honor so much. Later, they would not be so lucky without a vision.

This is nothing. After he has money, Qu Li is too willing to spend money. He pays BYD and other supply chain companies to buy equipment, and recruits engineers to arrange BYD Electronics. Whoever thought of these, so bold, But seeing the Honor G2, he feels that this wave is really fragrant.

But because of this, I understand Zhou Shaoning better. It’s not that he is not good. Many of Qu Li’s practices are against common sense. The more outstanding people are, the more difficult it is to accept. The conflict between him and Qu Li is definitely not a day or two. Think about the position of an engineer in Glory , it is not difficult to understand Li Yinan's support for Qu Li.

If you are walking on thin ice when you are facing the abyss, this may be: with the heart of a Bodhisattva, and the means of thunderbolt.

Thinking of the Honor G3 under development, notebooks, and tablets, Lei Jun is very curious about the action cameras that Honor has not launched yet. The market seems too small, right? But Qu Li didn't explain, saying that the time was not yet ripe.

"Our most important partner besides Google is Qualcomm, but Qualcomm is not very cooperative. Although we agree to entrust them to develop a chip with money, we are not prepared to let our people intervene. This will not work. We must find a way to go deep into Qualcomm. Learn from their advanced experience, and then work together with Spreadtrum..." Qu Li talked about the inside story of the cooperation between Honor and Qualcomm.

Honor G2 finally adopts Qualcomm QSD8250, the main frequency is 1G, Adreno 200 GPU, and the production capacity can keep up with the demand of Honor, but their development progress is slow. In the history, there is no upgraded product MSM8255 until 2011. Then the Honor G3 chip will not have performance upgrades, and can only be continuously optimized. It is reasonable to say that there is nothing, but who knows when Apple's iPhone self-developed chip will come out?

The improvement of the performance of Android phones depends on the parameters, but the product update frequency is high, the life cycle is short, the cost is high, and the less money they earn. So I still have to take advantage of it, spend money on research and development with Qualcomm, and make Honor custom chips.

After several explanations, Lei Jun finally understood the strategic significance of doing so. Their competitor is the iPhone instead of Nokia. He has a lot to do, but fortunately, the direction and purpose are very clear.

Then there is the dealer channel. Apple iPhone does not cooperate with Qualcomm, and Honor occupies the resources of two operators. It is certain that it will come from behind. There are Deutsche Telekom and 3 Telecom in Europe, and on this basis, dealers have already contacted Glory. Qu Li didn't know how to deal with such a complicated matter, so he chose to delegate power.

Mr. Lei has a lot of things to deal with. Anyway, he is a model worker, so it's normal to be a little tired, otherwise I'm sorry for the 5 million shares that I gave him, don't you think so?

"By the way, my long-term goal is to build at least one brand experience store in major cities in Europe, America, Japan, and South Korea to facilitate the sale of cars in the future..." Qu Li finally said, leaving Rebs there in pain.
