Chapter 64 Global Promotion
Soon, two days passed.
In the past two days, news of the cooperation between Universe Technology and Google was also spread on Xinhuanet through Hu Gang.
Universe Technology subsequently issued an announcement on its official website, confirming the news. Google also stepped forward generously and acknowledged the news.
Now that a contract has been signed to reach cooperation, and it has also promised to promote Universe Technology for free, Google naturally has to seize this great opportunity. What's more, by promoting Universe Technology, it is also promoting itself, and both parties will cooperate with each other for a win-win situation.
Just standing up and saying something can achieve a very good promotion effect. Countless media around the world will spontaneously report this breaking news. Why not!
Major media outlets around the world are also giving Google face. Therefore, the news of such a cooperation has greatly increased the exposure and popularity of Universe Technology in the world.
Netizens who did not mind the trouble were once again excited, talking about the great significance of the cooperation between the two companies to the universe technology.
Many foreign users have slowly begun to hear about such a voice assistant: Tai Chi Voice Assistant. Powerful functions, forward-looking experience, perfect control.
After signing the contract with Google, Liu Haoyu made some changes to the foreign full-language version of Taichi Voice Assistant, which was bound to Google's products and services by default. When customers change the default products and services, at the request of Google, users You will get a reminder: Google is our partner, and you will get a better experience by using its products and services.
In this way, many users have acquiesced in using Google products for the so-called better experience.
With the help of Google's extensive business, in foreign countries, using Google Pay, Google Maps, Google Search, etc., Taichi Voice Assistant is still rich in functions, and at the same time it also greatly increases the market share of Google's products, which can be described as a win-win situation.
As Google began to make efforts to increase the promotion of Tai Chi voice assistant, its competitors' market share has also been decreasing.
Cook has been very haggard these past two days!
It took a lot of effort to convince the group of profit-minded money fans on the board of directors. In his opinion, the people on the board of directors are all a group of stingy money fans who have no sense of the overall situation and only care about immediate interests. .
After convincing the people on the board of directors, Cook immediately dialed the number of China Region President Lei Lu. At this time in the United States, it was only four o'clock in the morning in China.
"Fuck, who is this? Don't let me sleep anymore!" Lei Lu woke up from his sleep with an angry look on his face when his cell phone rang.
He was sleeping sweetly. Who the hell could be so wicked and disturbing his dreams? Lei Lu wanted to just hang up the phone, turn off the phone and go back to sleep.
But he didn't dare. He had a clear understanding in his heart that the call at this time was probably from the US headquarters.
Lei Lu picked up his phone sleepily and looked at the screen with half-squinted eyes.
Suddenly I felt agitated. I lost all my sleep and woke up a lot. I quickly answered the phone and said in a panic: "Hello, Mr. Cook!"
"Lei Lu, the board of directors has agreed to the transaction requirements of Universe Technology. You hurry up and sign the contract. What I want is speed. In addition, you ask Universe Technology to develop the iOS version source program as soon as possible." Cook's voice It was very urgent and solemn, which made Lei Lu feel palpitated all of a sudden.
"Okay, Mr. Cook!"
After hanging up the phone, Lei Lu was completely sleepless at the moment. He quickly got up, washed and dressed, ate a quick sandwich breakfast, then drove into his car and rushed to the high-speed rail station.
Cook's attention made Lei Lu dare not ignore it, so he could only hurry up and deal with it.
Monday.
Early in the morning, Liu Haoyu just arrived at the company and lay down on a chair in the office to take a nap.
At this time, Zhang Lei knocked on the office door.
"Come in!"
Liu Haoyu raised his head slightly and took a look. After realizing that it was Zhang Lei who came in, he lay down on his head again and then squinted his eyes.
"Tell me what you have to say!"
"Director Liu, great news! Google's actions are really fast! It is indeed a big company. In the past two days, it has gradually increased the promotion of our voice assistant around the world. Now the number of downloads of our software abroad has increased again. It has increased by 50 million, and the number of people paying has reached more than 30 million. I have to say that the consumption concept in foreign countries is really different, and the payment ratio is much higher than that in China." Zhang Lei was full of joy and told Liu Haoyu about this matter .
You know, before cooperating with Google, Zhang Lei was very worried. After all, Universe Technology is a newly established company and does not have any branches abroad. It is not easy to promote at all. He spent money to buy some advertisements because he was blocked by some people. The effect is not very obvious.
It's fine now. With Google's full promotion, Zhang Lei can be said to be relieved and no longer worried about this matter.
"What's all the fuss about? Google's interests are directly proportional to ours. The more they promote, the more benefits they will naturally get. Besides, helping me promote products is nothing to Google. Google itself is Having the largest advertising space in the world is nothing more than earning less advertising fees and giving us some advertising space. The real benefit that Google gives us is the 5 billion U.S. dollars. This is the real thing." Liu Haoyu lay down on his boss Sitting on the chair, he half-closed his eyes and said casually.
Pichai is a smart man. When he promotes Universe Technology, he is also helping them promote themselves. It cannot be considered a real benefit. He also knows that Liu Haoyu will not agree if he does not provide some real benefits.
However, Pichai is indeed courageous and capable. No wonder the outside world thinks so highly of him. He was able to persuade the board of directors to give 5 billion US dollars to Universe Technology. I don’t know how he was persuaded?
"That's what Director Liu said! Our product itself is very good. In fact, we only need to gain some popularity in the early stage. In the future, we will not need advertising space to promote it. Those users who are using it will naturally help us actively promote it." Zhang Lei sighed with emotion. extremely.
When the conversation changed, Zhang Lei looked helpless and said: "Director Liu! In our foreign official website forum, many foreign users strongly suggested that we open gossip videos to foreign countries and adapt them to foreign languages. They all want to watch us. The company’s own drama.”
Liu Haoyu opened his eyes and mouthed, "You can arrange this! It's not that easy to set up a video website abroad. I will upgrade the Bagua Video APP to adapt to full language subtitles. However, the voices of the characters in the play are It can only be in Chinese, let them watch subtitles or learn Chinese!”
"No problem. One last thing. Apple called me early in the morning and agreed to your request. President Lei Lu will rush over at noon today to sign the contract according to your request."
"You have full authority to handle this. Just bring the contract over and I'll sign it!" Liu Haoyu closed his eyes again, with a nonchalant tone, as if he didn't even care about Apple.
Seeing this, Zhang Lei also felt helpless, but he couldn't say anything more. He could only feel silent for Apple. This was completely despised by our chairman.
After finishing the matter, Zhang Lei returned to his office.
Passing by the employee area all the way, I saw the busyness of all the employees. As the company's business volume increased, the company's employees seemed to be somewhat insufficient. Especially in the area of customer service, the company has an increasing number of users, and the demand for customer service is also increasing.
It seems that we still need to recruit more people! It's just that the office space is a bit small and I'm afraid it won't be enough.
