Chapter 1121 Competition and cooperation is the big trend

Entering August, the atmosphere of the Olympic Games is getting stronger and stronger, and the opening will begin soon.

The city has specially set aside more than 50 places for Ziweixing, and you can watch it in person on the day of the opening ceremony. If it was an ordinary occasion, Zhou Buqi would definitely refuse.

But this is the Olympic Games, arguably the greatest opening ceremony in history, and witnessing it with your own eyes is a rare experience.

"This is last month's financial report."

"Oh, how is it?"

Zhou Buqi sat behind his desk and looked at the specific data of Helo last month.

Ning Yaxian pursed her lips and said, "Very good, I made 20 million more than last month, a total of 360 million."

It's summer vacation now, so group buying on campus is out of the question.

It is also because it is summer vacation that Ji Zian can calmly take over the business of the school net, and has enough time to prepare for the school group buying in the school season in September.

Zhou Buqi simply looked at the financial report.

The total domestic income is 590 million yuan, excluding the expenses of various miscellaneous and investment projects, and only counting business operations, the net profit is 360 million yuan.

The performance is quite impressive.

Among them, the total expenditure of salaries and benefits is 160 million yuan. Ziwei Star now has 5,400 employees in China, and the cost is 29,000 yuan per person.

In addition to Friends.com's business, which has created a profit of more than 200 million yuan, the Helo business has also risen. July is the second month that Helo launched the quick login service. In this month, a total of 840 million quick login services were completed, earning 25 million yuan. Then of the 25 million yuan, 18 million yuan was attributed to Helo's profits.

What kind of cost sharing is involved in this, Zhou Buqi can't understand it. With the development of the company, the financial structure becomes more and more complicated, which is difficult for non-professionals to figure out.

Zhou Buqi did not pay much attention to this very simple financial report. The past few months have been similar, and they are all in a slow and steady growth. The monthly operating profit is basically between 300 million and 400 million. .

Performance growth has slowed down.

It's not that Ziweixing is dead, but the size of the domestic market is just so big. Ziweixing’s revenue mainly comes from advertising, but the domestic Internet advertisements have been highly centralized. For every 2.4 yuan advertising fees that merchants spend on the Internet, 1 yuan goes into Ziweixing’s pocket.

The next business growth will not be dominated by entrepreneurs.

This requires changes in the times and the environment.

At present, the country is already doing it, and has launched a new round of optical fiber construction projects...It is estimated that in two years, the domestic network speed can be further improved.

"Half an hour later, a reporter from Southern People came over."

"Where are you coming from? Office?"

"Yes." Ning Yaxian nodded slightly, "At that time, I will take some photos and ask you 15-18 questions. The interview process will last about 20 minutes, not more than 30 minutes."

Zhou Buqi said: "Only talk about business affairs, not personal affairs, the most you can talk about is the university."

Ning Yaxian smiled and said: "I know, we have screened the list of questions, and I will go through it myself."

Zhou Buqi nodded slightly, and immediately remembered something, "Didn't the other two media come here today?"

"Come on, come next to each other."

"Do you know the reporter from Southern People?"

"ah?"

Ning Yaxian exclaimed.

Zhou Buqi understood it at a glance, and snorted coldly, "I don't know you yet? I know what pose you want to pose with just any look you make!"

Ning Yaxian said angrily: "This is a company, you are making trouble again."

Zhou Buqi said: "The questions have to be screened. If you don't know you, you can report other people's privacy at will."

Ning Yaxian smiled lightly: "No, she is my college classmate. Their newspaper office heard that they were interviewing technology companies, so they specially sent a science student reporter to interview."

"Male and female?"

"female."

"Isn't it beautiful?"

"It's pretty." Ning Yaxian gave him a charming look, "What do you want to do? Want me to introduce you?"

Zhou Buqi waved his hand, "Let's line up first."

Ning Yaxian chuckled, angry and funny, and said through gritted teeth: "What's wrong with you and my sister? Are you bullying her again?"

Zhou Buqi was stunned for a moment, feeling very wronged, "How can there be? This time there is no such thing! We...we can talk now."

Ning Yaxian said: "I don't think she talks much these days."

Zhou Buqi's heart moved, he hooked his hand to her, let her approach, lowered his voice, and asked: "Ya Xian, is Ya Meng really a girl?"

Ning Yaxian pursed her lips and remained silent.

Zhou Buqi said: "What are you hiding? I asked the other day, and she admitted it."

"Ah?" Ning Yaxian looked suspicious, "Really?"

"What is true or false? She said it herself." Zhou Buqi was a little puzzled, "What's going on? How old is she, and she has been married and divorced before. Why do I feel that you two are joining hands?" Play me like a monkey!"

"Who dares to trick you?"

Ning Yaxian couldn't laugh or cry.

Zhou Buqi pulled her over, pressed her on his thigh, and said without doubt: "Today you have to say what you say, and you have to say what you don't say!"

Ning Yaxian was very helpless, "A girl is a girl, didn't she say so."

"Is it really a girl?"

"Um."

"She...wasn't she married?"

Ning Yaxian sighed, "Why do you think she divorced? She is not bad in everything. Her ex-husband is my high school classmate, and he is very good in every aspect. Even if they are married now, my family still has a very good impression of him. Well, he will go to see my parents at home during the holidays, he is a very good person."

Zhou Buqi tentatively asked: "Is her ex-husband not good?"

Ning Yaxian gave him a white look, "My lord, you don't want others to stare at your privacy, can you stop staring at other people's privacy? What do you say about this kind of thing? Anyway, my sister hasn't been touched by a man yet, she is a girl with yellow flowers .If you succeed, you will take advantage of it."

Zhou Buqi said something very bastard, "It will not be repaired later, and then the two of you sisters will co-operate to lie to me... Hey, don't bite! There will be an interview later."

Ning Yaxian couldn't help but leaned over and bit his ear, angrily said: "I can guarantee that if you dare to ask Xiao Meng such a question, you will never touch her for the rest of your life."

Zhou Buqi laughed, "So I want to ask you, what's there to be angry about?"

I laughed in my heart.

This matter really needs to get to the bottom of it.

It doesn't matter if Secretary Ning doesn't want many people, Boss Zhou is very experienced.

Whether it is original or second-hand, as long as you get started, you can easily detect it.

After a while, the reporter's interview began.

Zhou Buqi was a little disappointed.

Ning Yaxian's college classmate is not pretty at all. Well, that is, the appearance of a man, which is not within the scope of Boss Zhou's aesthetics.

The first is "Southern People", which is a popular magazine, which is generally subscribed by civil servants and white-collar workers;

The second is "Business Weekly Chinese Edition", which is an American magazine. Interviews with internationally influential figures may be translated into English and published abroad. Zhou Buqi is obviously in this category;

Finally, "Entrepreneur Magazine", which is a magazine in cooperation with the Entrepreneur Club, is mainly aimed at entrepreneurs and entrepreneurs across the country.

The three magazines basically cover the most important audience groups.

The process of the interview was shocking but not dangerous.

Zhou Buqi responded fairly decently, and the content of the interview focused on three points: first, the age of 22 years; second, the interesting story of starting a business in university; third, the prospect of overseas markets.

The last is to take pictures.

On the boss chair behind the desk, on the couch in the office.

But I always feel like something is missing.

I always shoot for Boss Zhou alone, which is a bit monotonous. Some reporters suggested that we should invite another executive to report and pose for a "work photo"?

Zhou Buqi flatly refused.

This is not acceptable, the identities are not equal, and it might be self-defeating.

Moreover, it is hard to justify who to choose or not to choose.

Just like Lao Zhang once taught him, as a boss, it is best not to eat with his employees. With so many employees, who will you eat or not?

It will definitely not be taken care of.

People who can't eat may feel anxiety, worry, or at least regret and discomfort.

The best thing is to cut it across the board and not eat it.

Zhou Buqi is basically like this now, except for a few secretaries around him, that is, eating with He Yang and Zhang Yiming. Guo Pengfei and Ji Zian are private gatherings of friends and are not included.

Then, Zhou Buqi made a phone call, "Old Zhang? Are you in the company? Ah...you go downstairs, I have something to do....Yes! Come down immediately! I'm in a hurry!"

Zhang Chaoyang thought there was something important to do, so he trotted all the way up the stairs, panting.

It almost didn't kill me.

This bastard kid, just to take pictures for magazines? Use yourself as a backdrop?

Fortunately, he also considered to save face, and he sat down on the sofa with Zhou Buqi, drank tea, and posed for a few photos.

After the interview team left, Zhang Chaoyang didn't worry too much, and asked, "By the way, I heard that there is a product called Rainbow Helo, which is pirating yours..."

"Old Zhang, that happened two months ago!"

"Really? You know?"

"Can you not know?"

Zhang Chaoyang frowned, with a strange look on his face, "Are you so conniving? Someone suggested to me that we can follow this model and build a Sohu Helo. At that time, we can use Sohu Helo to attract traffic to Sohu."

Zhou Buqi didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Who suggested it to you?"

Zhang Chaoyang waved his hand, "I rejected it."

Zhou Buqi said: "If you want to do Sohu Helo, I will definitely not set up obstacles here. The key is that you must have the core competitiveness of the product. Why don't users use the original Helo and use your Sohu Helo? You see Rainbow Helo is so well designed, you can use many free QQ shows, and you can also enjoy various Q coin services.”

Zhang Chaoyang looked suddenly enlightened, "Sure enough, I guessed it right!"

"Guess what?"

"You indulge Rainbow Helo in order to fight against QQ in the hands of others."

"Then you really underestimated me."

Zhang Chaoyang looked strange, "Isn't it?"

Zhou Buqi said: "Look at the current domestic public opinion, Microsoft is at the center of the whirlpool. Apart from artificially inducing public opinion, there is also the fact that Microsoft's current temperament is not right. Microsoft has not had a good life in the past two years. The main reason is that Ballmer's structure is too small, fighting with Yahoo, Google, Oracle, IBM, heaven and earth, what a fart he is fighting! The more fierce the fight, the worse he will be. Look at Google , find people everywhere to cooperate, establish business partners all over the world, competition and cooperation is the general trend of business in the future. Compete and cooperate, don’t fight.”
