Reborn Entrepreneurial Giant

This year's New Year's Eve speech did not have too many hot spots. In fact, the next few years will be a few years for accumulating strength: Jumei is waiting for the platform's transaction volume to exceed trillions, and Honor will establish advantages in chips and operating systems. Geometry needs to complete the CMA structure and improve the electric vehicle industry chain.

In fact, Qu Li can also brag and create hot spots. For example, Jumei will promote mobile payment to change the way of life of Chinese people.

So to sum up the content of this New Year's Eve speech, Honor is an excellent multinational company. Our mission is to let consumers become people who can change the world together with us, and make the world a better place together! This value can override the forward geometry.

Jumei does not change the world, it changes life and makes everyone's life better.

Qu Li said before that Jumei is oriented towards reality and Honor is oriented towards the future. This time, it just made the company's positioning clearer.

The next day, Qu Li’s New Year’s Eve speech still hit the headlines of Internet news. His judgment on the future: The next few years will be the golden age of entrepreneurship. This sentence has been widely spread. And his various encounters in the early days of entrepreneurship seem to be explosive points.

Looking at the popularity on Weibo, Qu Li could only feel that he was outdated. He thought that there were so many people who cared about the unpopular things on the Internet, and many VCs who had worked with him before were still active. Many VCs called him. Telephone.

After so many years, Qu Li's petty mind has not forgotten the past.

Looking back at the beginning, Qu Li started building a brand from a Taobao clothing store. Xiangyun and Danlin established different product positioning, and then sold cosmetics with high profits and convenient delivery. Starting from a single hot product, more and more involved.

In the early days, the Taobao store only had computers and cameras, and later added warehouses and vans. At that time, it seemed to be very profitable, but by chance, I became an Internet entrepreneur.

At that time, venture capitalists were not interested in his set of "fallacies and heresies". At that time, domestic physical stores had Tata, clothing e-commerce companies had PPG, and Fancl Eslite. Their teams were better than the combination of Qu Li and Chen Danlin.

Under Qu Li's management, Chen Danlin was the hottest female Internet celebrity in China at that time. Qu Li himself was very well-known, and he was another outstanding representative of entrepreneurs born in the 1980s. Compared with other "net celebrities" who are ignorant, Qu Li is very skilled in monetizing traffic, which is why he can attract venture capital.

Qu Li is a contradictory person, with both self-confidence and inferiority complex emotions at the same time. He can actively listen to other people's opinions, but he does not give in to his own insistence. There is no possibility of compromise, and he often acts too strong.

The biggest problem between him and the venture capital is that the direction of the business is changing too fast. They agreed to start a fast fashion clothing e-commerce business, but before the venture capital funds arrived, they started to do fashion e-commerce business, and the funds were transferred to an e-commerce platform. , while not giving up building a clothing brand.

The venture capitalists are normal businessmen, they were tossed by Qu Li several times, and they had an idea in their hearts for sure. All kinds of threats happen from time to time. If a normal entrepreneur must be afraid, Qu Li is rich, and he wanted venture capital at that time. Help him from various aspects such as corporate governance and talents, so if you don’t take the initiative or refuse, you can really withdraw the capital if you have the ability. Anyway, he can win it.

But this is Qu Li’s own opinion. A well-known investor recalled that period of history when he answered questions from netizens: “At that time, the contradictions became more and more intense. I thought we would divest, but I didn’t expect Qu Li to go to Beijin to establish He joined the Glory Company, and since then he has grasped the big and let go of the small..."

There is such a big difference in how the same thing appears to different people, and I don't know if they are talking nonsense just to discuss Qu Li. But none of them mentioned Lin Bing, a key figure before Qu Li's success. Qu Li met Zhou Shaoning, Lin Bing and others through Wang Jian, but only Lin Bing believed and was willing to join Jumei at that time.

Refer to the story of Li Xiang’s founding of Autohome. Without Lin Bing, although Jumei could be successful, it is impossible to transform from an e-commerce company into an Internet technology company so quickly.

"So, you can only choose one of the two now." Qu Li said this sentence cruelly

Lin Bing didn't respond. Zhou Hongyi had been talking with him last year, saying that the problem of continuing to cooperate was not a big problem. He didn't expect to play him in the end, and then he gave the company wrong information. Now that Guge Search is about to lose 365 traffic, how much will the market share drop? How much will the company's revenue and profits be affected?

"If I step down as CTO, who are you going to let take over?" Lin Bing

"To cancel this position, if there must be one, it can be Wang Jian." Qu Li

"..."

"Ancient song search, cloud computing, big data, personalized recommendation algorithms and artificial intelligence, I don't think anyone has this ability..."

"Then you don't just let me..."

"..." Qu Li didn't say a word, the way is chosen by oneself, if you don't ask, I won't tell

Lin Bing assumed his responsibilities, from Jumei Lin Bing to Gu Ge Lin Bing, the rest still needs to be done. There are many people in China who know Gu Ge search, and 50 million new Internet users have been added in China this year. Why choose There are not many searches for ancient songs. Could it be that the search experience is too bad?

Unfortunately, many things cannot be answered, like your first love, why not your wife?

"We act as an agent for Google, or develop our own PC browser." Qu Li said that he is willing to use an agent, but he is afraid that others will criticize him. Otherwise, no domestic company can keep up with Google's update frequency of four times a month.

"If we can acquire Sogou Search..."

"Ali is the major shareholder of Sogou"

"Or buy Goose Factory's Soso" is also an option. It is said that Goose Factory's Soso search is about to stop. They have a search demand, but unfortunately they can't do it.

"It's better to let WeChat open a search window. Not many people use Soso."

"It's better to be a browser. The PC terminal and the mobile terminal are synchronized and updated once a month."

"How much money does it cost, whether to save various plug-ins, giving up may not be effective"

A strange phenomenon, the plug-ins that Microsoft's edge browser can have, but domestic browsers cannot. Juhard's influence at home and abroad is too strong.

Browser, wps, Jinshan drug tyrant, you can't force Guge to launch a security guard, can you? oh! This Jinshan has, continue to cooperate.

"Is this why we guide them?"

"What is the problem?"

Doing so can seize the 365 market.

Jumei, there are very limited solutions that can be thought of here, and we can only do our best and obey the destiny. It is still necessary to accelerate the transformation of the mobile terminal.

"UC has the largest market share in the mobile browser market, followed by Honor's own. We don't have much advantage in ranking in the top five."

"What about our ancient song search app and aggregated news search app?"

Looking left and right, the prospect of ancient song search is not very good, but Qu Li has nothing to do.
