Chapter 2520 Shoulder

Obviously, Boss Zhou views competition from a higher position.

He wasn't worried at all.

Because he was prophetic.

There will be almost no market-level risks for Ziweixing's future development in China. It not only has core products such as WeChat, Weibo, and Toutiao, but also cooperates externally with potential companies such as Asda, Fantuan.com, and JD.com. Internet giants have strategic relationships.

Great success has basically been finalized.

But others don't know it clearly, so they are somewhat worried.

Cheng Binghao is a technical expert and can't help but worry, "Do you really want to do this? Ziweixing has already been split up."

"Um?"

"Currently, Ziweixing only deals with domestic business, and all overseas business is handed over to Ziweixing International. In other words, Ziweixing does not need to compete with Silicon Valley giants, and has already established itself as a domestic industry leader. It has more opportunities. A stable strategy.”

Cheng Binghao was an early team member of Ziweixing and the first CTO.

Later, when technology could not keep up, he took a back seat and became the dean of the Academy of Engineering.

But his status is still there.

There is also enough respect on Zhou Buqi's side.

Obviously, his thinking is very similar to Zhang Yiming.

For Ziweixing, there is a safer way to develop!

What Boss Zhou said is very good, with a big structure and a broad mind, but there is a risk in lending your own shoulders. What if there is a rising star who really steps on Ziweixing's shoulders and makes something that surpasses Ziweixing? What to do with MSI products?

If Ziweixing does not contribute its own shoulders, then given the current domestic Internet market structure and Ziweixing's strong product line portfolio, it will be almost impossible for emerging startups to challenge Ziweixing's position.

Just like BAT in the past few years.

Except for Ziweixing, an outlier that has emerged from the cracks, the probability that other emerging Internet companies want to grow into companies more powerful than BAT is really slim.

This is the best choice for large companies.

Anyway, we only focus on the domestic market and will not compete with foreign giants overseas. If you don't compete with the technology giants in Silicon Valley, you don't need to adopt too radical methods. With proper restraint and stable control, you can firmly dominate the domestic Internet-related industries.

Boss Zhou's thinking is an international one. After liberalization, although it takes risks, as long as it comes out, it will have stronger competitiveness.

But there is no need to do so in the country. The country is protected by a wall and outsiders cannot come in. If they want to come in, they have to castrate themselves first and lose half their lives.

Ziweixing only targets the domestic market. Judging from the current competitiveness, it is enough. There is no need to further enhance competitiveness and take unnecessary risks.

It's best to control the field.

Just like the most popular football genre in the world at the moment - pass-and-control football. This football-style offense may not be strong enough, but it can control the ball at your feet to limit the opponent's offense. The opponent's offensive is restricted, and you can be invincible first.

Without foresight, Zhou Buqi would definitely have chosen a similar route.

Make progress while maintaining stability.

Rather than sacrificing the overall progress of the industry, we must ensure the survival value of our own company. This is the strategy that a private enterprise should choose.

The reason why the technology giants in Silicon Valley dare to adopt many radical and risky strategies and allow others to step on their shoulders is because of the situation.

International competition is complex, and there are many more options to choose from. If they don't take risks, give others the opportunity to step on their shoulders and promote their own progress through the progress of others, then others may choose other alternatives.

When the time comes, when others grow up, they will have nothing to do with you.

He is growing up by stepping on your shoulders, and at least you can follow up quickly, observe in real time, and provide constant feedback.

When he couldn't hold on any longer, he took off his shoulders and the opponent collapsed.

Just like the Android system, Google is very open and has made Android open source, allowing technology manufacturers around the world to further develop Android on the shoulders of Google.

The world will make progress together and work together to make Android better, which will also be beneficial to Google.

However, there are risks.

If there is a very powerful manufacturer who is not very obedient and steps on Google's shoulders to develop a modified version of Android that can bypass Google, it may even threaten the existence of Google...

what to do?

It's simple, just find a reason to cause trouble, remove the shoulders, and don't allow this manufacturer to step on it.

Silicon Valley technology giants' acquiescence to the outside world's shoulder-stepping is too friendly to countless small and medium-sized technology companies. They can almost make progress simultaneously with the giant companies and share many scientific and technological achievements, which has brought great benefits to the technology industry. Huge innovation.

But it's not possible in China, where there is a wall.

Having walls means fewer choices.

Foreign companies may have a hundred or a thousand plans to choose from.

This is not possible in China.

After counting, BAT is the only three companies that can play a leading role.

Then just fight with these three families.

Why open up opportunities and allow more competitors to emerge? This will naturally curb the simultaneous development of the industry technically.

Zhou Buqi is actually not worried at all.

Even if Ziweixing is open, there will be no risk.

But it’s hard to use this reason to convince everyone.

Zhou Buqi said slowly: "That's all in the past, times are changing. As Dr. Wang Jian said, in the past, the domestic Internet industry did not have self-research. This is a reality. But in the mobile Internet era, the largest The worry is not that there is no self-research, but that excessive self-research will cause huge waste in the industry.”

This is a bit confusing.

Only arguments, no evidence?

Zhou Buqi said: "In the past ten years, hundreds of thousands of domestic IT engineers have gone to the United States to study. This is the biggest variable. This is different from the Internet industry in the past. Many Internet companies in the past were looking for a few Technicians who set up a grassroots team to start a business are all Tubal. In the era of mobile Internet, these overseas students who have returned from overseas will bring about the biggest changes."

He Yang was convinced, "Well, young people in the new era are indeed different. Their thinking is more Westernized and their international perspective is better."

Zhou Buqi said: "Yes, that's right! These people have all returned from studying in the United States. They have seen the world, know the development trends of the global technology industry, know what the Silicon Valley giants look like, and also know the Silicon Valley technology companies. What industry resources have been shared. If Ziweixing does not provide a shoulder, they will definitely go to Silicon Valley to find a backer."

Zhang Yiming gradually caught up with Boss Zhou's thinking and said slowly: "It's like a payment tool. If Ziweixing doesn't let go, many domestic Internet companies will have to work hard to do self-research and do it." Repeatedly reinventing the wheel will lead to huge waste; but some returnees who have studied abroad are different. They are smarter and have a more international perspective, and they go directly to Silicon Valley to find solutions. In the end, all that is left in the industry is These returnees.”

This really hit the spot.

In the previous life of the domestic mobile Internet, a group of emerging companies that emerged from the cracks of BAT basically followed this path.

Zhou Buqi said: "Yes, that's what it means. Suppose... let's suppose that we don't open WeChat payment and let our colleagues find their own solutions. Let's not talk about those who died, but those who survived. No matter Did they survive by self-research, by stealing intellectual property, or by finding foreign aid and relying on the help of Silicon Valley? What will be the final result? They will be resistant to Ziweixing, and even hate it. !”

He Yang took a deep breath, and then realized this critical and sensitive issue, and said in a deep voice: "That's right, it's like the entire Internet industry... hates BAT!"

Cheng Binghao belatedly said: "In the past few years, Ziweixing Engineering Institute has provided a lot of help to colleagues. This is precisely part of the reason why Ziweixing has a good reputation in the industry."
