Chapter 221 The Hope of Technology

Cup of milk tea is Fang Qiwen's last hope.

If he fails again this time, he will really lose face, give up starting a business completely, and honestly find a company to work for.

Therefore, Fang Qiwen put all his enthusiasm on milk tea, personally led the team, and started to promote it.

After Zhou Buqi arrived at the milk tea factory, he found that only Wu Gaoyi was present among the leaders of the milk tea factory, and all the other factory leaders went out to sell Yuanwei cup milk tea.

"Uncle Wu, don't be polite to me, you are Xiao Yu's father, you are an elder."

Seeing Wu Gaoyi greet him from a distance, Zhou Buqi was a little flattered.

Wu Gaoyi seemed to be a little embarrassed, and said with shame: "The matter of Xiao Yu... I know it all, Xiao Zhou, this matter... I didn't educate my daughter well..."

Knowing that he was talking about "cheating", Zhou Buqi quickly laughed and said, "Uncle Wu, you will be out of touch if you say that, and the past is over. Young people, who doesn't make mistakes? Let's not talk about it." , how about milk tea?"

There is a big red truck in the factory, and boxes of milk tea are being transported to the truck.

The atmosphere is pretty good.

Wu Gaoyi said with a smile: "At present, the effect is still good."

"oh?"

"We have just shipped the product, and we haven't received feedback from consumers. However, the factory manager said that the merchant is very friendly, and they recognize our products in terms of packaging, price, appearance and taste."

"Where is it all sent?"

Mainly some large, medium and small supermarkets are old customers of some beverage factories.

Zhou Buqi paused for a moment, then asked again: "How many pieces are there in this batch?"

Wu Gaoyi said: "Ten thousand pieces, each with nine cups of milk tea."

"Not much?"

"Put it out first and see the market reaction. If the 10,000 pieces of goods can be digested within a month, it means that the merchant's response is positive enough, and the production can be increased. If it is not suitable, some fine-tuning can be made. The director of the factory is An expert in this field, he has a whole set of arrangements."

Zhou Buqi said: "Pushing like this is not enough."

Wu Gaoyi said with a smile: "The director of the factory said that this summer is the trial period. If the market feedback is good and consumers widely recognize it, you might as well contact the dealer and promote it to a larger area."

Zhou Buqi nodded. He didn't understand the specific business, so he could only delegate power, and said, "Well, I invested in a movie here...a good movie. Let's try the milk tea first. Once it takes shape, it can be used as a prop in the movie, which can be regarded as a wave of publicity.”

The two walked more than half a circle in the factory and explained the current development plan of the factory.

Well planned.

Zhou Buqi didn't have anything to point out, so he planned to leave. Wu Gaoyi hesitated for a moment, but suddenly lowered his voice and said, "Xiao Zhou, I heard... the group is splitting up?"

Zhou Buqi immediately understood what he meant.

The group he was talking about was the Zhou family's Wanchao Group that he had worked for before.

"Yes." Zhou Buqi nodded without hiding anything, "Uncle Wu, you must be clear about the dispositions of Zhou Jianguo and his son. If the Zhou family is handed over to them, they will probably lose. Why don't you hurry up while the old man is still sober?" Divide the family, and each will live his own life in the future, and no one will owe anyone."

Wu Gaoyi frowned, looking serious.

"What's wrong?" Zhou Buqi looked at him strangely.

Wu Gaoyi said in a deep voice: "I have worked in the group for more than ten years, and I have been under the leadership of Zhou Jianguo. He is... too wild. He will definitely not agree to split the family. In this regard, you have to make sufficient preparations. "

"How do you understand?"

"If the old man agrees to split the family, you have to find a team of lawyers in the capital to finalize the separation contract, and..."

Speaking of this, Wu Gaoyi's words suddenly became a lot heavier, and he said solemnly: "We need to hire a group of reliable bodyguards! It is best to bring your mother and your sister to the capital."

Zhou Buqi nodded approvingly, "Okay, this summer vacation, I'll take care of it."

Seeing that he had listened, Wu Gaoyi was secretly relieved.

After all, this is someone else's housework, and it is taboo for an outsider to participate blindly. Fortunately, this uncle-to-be has a good temper and is reliable.

"Okay, that's it, take Xiaoyu home to play later, and ask your aunt to make delicious food for you."

"no problem!"

Zhou Buqi laughed and wanted to leave.

Opening the car door, Wu Gaoyi thought of something again, and sighed: "Xiao Zhou, about Xiao Yu..."

Zhou Buqi waved his hand angrily, "Uncle Wu, I said, this matter is over, it's okay."

Wu Gaoyi didn't believe it.

He is also a man.

If his wife cheated, he wouldn't just beat her to death, but he would also be determined to divorce her.

After hesitating for a while, he gritted his teeth and said, "Xiao Zhou, sometimes you can't be too soft-hearted, you have to discipline yourself. It's okay to scold and beat when it's time to beat..."

Zhou Buqi burst out laughing, "Uncle Wu, how could it be so serious? Well, Xiao Yu is a good girl, I understand her. That's it, I'm leaving."

Watching Zhou Buqi drive away, Wu Gaoyi stood there for a long time.

I am deeply moved.

What a good uncle!

...

The battle between Microsoft and QQ is imminent.

The so-called enemy of the enemy is a friend. QQ originally wanted to do its own search, but was blocked by Microsoft, so it went to Google to cooperate.

Penguin provides users with Google's web search services and advertising services, embedded in QQ, websites, browsers and other products. Not only that, Microsoft's Hotmail is widely liked by users, but Penguin's QQ mailbox is very low-end. With a big wave of his hand, Boss Ma directly entered the domestic Foxmail mailbox, and introduced the boss Zhang Xiaolong, who was later the father of WeChat.

The two sides also launched the most direct competition in the field of mailboxes.

It can be said that Microsoft is currently under attack from both sides, with Google in front and QQ in the back.

However, Microsoft's actions are still very slow.

The banner of the so-called anti-QQ alliance has been spread out, and other websites have joined in one after another... After all, with the expansion of QQ and large-scale copying, it has already aroused public outrage on the domestic Internet.

On the other hand, Microsoft still insists on the eight-hour working system and weekends, and the employee benefits are super good, but the efficiency is very low.

How can a foreign company without the habit of exploiting its employees be the opponent of 996's domestic Internet companies?

Microsoft is not in a hurry, and Friends.com is even more in a hurry.

Start cooperation negotiations with Microsoft in an orderly manner. On the one hand, actively prepare for the next data transfer with Xiaonei.

Taking advantage of the opportunity of negotiating with Microsoft, Zhou Buqi called Zhang Yiming and told Zhang Yiming: "I have the opportunity to go to Microsoft Research Institute more often."

"What's wrong?" Zhang Yiming's heart moved, "Are you going to poach people? I'm afraid it will be very difficult. This time the school recruits also showed that most of the first-class talents have gone to Microsoft Research Institute and Google Research Institute. The benefits are even higher. Well, not to mention the more relaxed working environment, there is a more powerful technology platform there, and you can really learn something. In comparison, these Internet companies in China can only recruit some second- and third-rate talents."

Zhou Buqi said: "Second- and third-rate talents are not necessarily the opponents of first-rate talents. The company's management also depends on its positioning, operation and corporate culture. Whether it's Microsoft or Google, their domestic market position will definitely increase. It’s getting worse and worse, first build a good relationship with the talents over there, and wait for the job-hopping.”

Zhang Yiming wondered, "Do you have any new ideas?"

"No, this is the consistent idea. This year is the first year of the Internet in China. However, there is a huge hidden danger in the domestic IT industry, which is de-technization. The mobile phone market is sluggish, and major mobile phone manufacturers are abolishing one after another. The R\u0026D department and Internet companies are also doing services, all of which are service improvements at the application layer."

“Friends.com doesn’t have much technology either.”

"So something has to change."

"From now on, are you going to actively compete with Microsoft and Google?"

"No." Zhou Buqi smiled, "With the current status of friends.com, including Xiaonei.com, it is not realistic to compete with Microsoft and Google for top talents, but this does not mean that there will be no Opportunity. It's a trade-off. They're going backwards, we're progressing."

Zhang Yiming understood what he meant, "So you conclude that Microsoft and Google will not have any good results in the domestic market?"

Zhou Buqi said: "Of course, didn't you see it? QQ is already eyeing it. As long as the integration of QQ mailbox and Foxmail mailbox is completed, it may take less than half a year for users to surpass Microsoft's Hotmail. As a result, Microsoft's Mo Haw, do you think there will be a good result?"

Zhang Yiming sighed: "Now Friends.com's strength is still limited, and its attraction is not enough."

Zhou Buqi said: "I know, so let's take advantage of the cooperation with Microsoft to go to Microsoft Research Institute. See what functions are needed on Friends.com, which needs the help of Microsoft Research Institute to develop and build a further For cooperation, the most important thing is to have a good relationship with the people there. There is no need for the dean, those deputy deans have a higher technical level than the academicians."

"cooperate……"

Zhang Yiming was a little uncertain. After all, he was still young, and Friends.com was a social platform, so he didn't think he needed any high-end technology.

Zhou Buqi said clearly: "Friends.com has a very important meaning, which is data. The future is the era of data. With the data of each user, you can judge his personal preferences, his consumption habits, his social background, etc., which is extremely important for the development of products in more fields.”

Zhang Yiming asked: "We want to process data? Boss Zhou, this is a big proposition. Friends.com doesn't have the technical strength at all."

Zhou Buqi said with a smile: "So go to Microsoft to find it. They have the most cutting-edge technology of the era and a group of elite talents in this field. The processing of large-scale data has begun to attract the attention of Internet giants in Silicon Valley. There is no response yet. Friends.com might as well reserve a seat in advance. We don’t have the strength in the short term, so we can ask Microsoft Research to cooperate.”

Zhang Yiming took a deep breath, "Well, I see."

After the call ended, Zhou Buqi heaved a sigh of relief.

The cards have already been played, so I don't know what the result will be.

In Microsoft China Research Institute, Dr. Wang Jian, the vice president, is in charge of large-scale data processing business.

Well, it was the one who switched to Ali later and created Alibaba Cloud.

Cloud computing is originally a calculation of data.
