Chapter 3205 Verification Code

In this case, if others say it, Lao Ma may not believe it.

Zhou Buqi is different.

If he says he can do it, then there is a high probability that he can really do it.

Boss Ma asked again: "How much is the market value of Asda's listing this time? I read the recent news and it said that Xiaomi completed a new round of financing of US$1 billion, and its valuation reached US$50 billion. This is just a few days ago." Year?"

Zhou Buqi smiled and said: "Xiaomi is doing very well, and this has extended from mobile phones to other fields. Otherwise, Mr. Lei would not dare to make a bet with Gree."

"Lei Jun came to see me some time ago and talked to me for several hours."

"What to talk about?"

"Alibaba's development strategy, come and learn from it."

Boss Ma said proudly.

Zhou Buqi smiled and said: "We should learn more from experience. If Xiaomi wants to step out of the field of smartphones and break through into more traditional hardware manufacturing industries, the resistance will be great. It will have to dig out mountains one by one and face many opponents." Even state-owned enterprises.”

They are also Internet companies, but Alibaba is different from Ziweixing, Penguin, Baidu, and NetEase.

Several of Alibaba’s core businesses were carved out by Boss Ma’s team.

Other Internet companies followed the general trend and took off when the trend came, and they started doing it. A lot of Alibaba’s businesses are not, but they are actually created out of wasteland. Even Zhou Buqi can't do this.

Other Internet companies have passive attributes. When the general environment comes and the infrastructure is available, they will launch related businesses.

Ali is different.

Boss Ma is all about proactive strategies.

When there was no general environment, he took the risk of going to jail and rushed forward, which eventually changed the general environment. Online payment, online small loans, free remittances, online payment, etc., he took the initiative to carve out these businesses. of.

Especially in the field of e-commerce, private express delivery back then was a gray industry and was not recognized by the mainstream. It was the development of e-commerce driven by Taobao that pushed efficient and convenient private express delivery into the mainstream and gained official recognition.

Compared with Alibaba, other Internet people, including Zhou Buqi, adopt more of a "free-riding" strategy. They wait for others to provide opportunities and then seize them, instead of taking the initiative to open up wasteland and create opportunities. .

After all, domestic policy risks are very high, and most people don’t have the courage.

In terms of personal style, Boss Ma still continues the spirit of the older generation of entrepreneurs, who are willing to go all out and rush forward. After all, for a long time, they had no room for ambition but had little room to display it. Once you have some space, you will really have high morale and give up.

Boss Ma asked: "Astar will be much more valuable than Xiaomi, right?"

Zhou Buqi smiled and said: "That's for sure. Esda is number one in the world, and Xiaomi is not even number one in China. The market value should reach 120 billion US dollars, or at least exceed 100 billion US dollars. After all, Esda Da’s profits are not outstanding enough, even less than half of Samsung Electronics, whose current market value is only US$270 billion.”

Boss Ma said: "It's not high!"

Zhou Buqi is very calm, "In the hardware industry, the price-to-earnings ratio is not high, and it is incomparable with the Internet. Apple's high market value is all supported by amazing profits."

Boss Ma smiled and said: "If you ask me, smartphones still have to rely on the Internet."

"You don't understand."

Zhou Buqi waved his hand.

Boss Ma was choked and said angrily: "What do you think of the domestic cloud computing industry? Amazon Cloud has entered the domestic market. This is going to muddy the waters!"

"Ah?" Zhou Buqi was a little surprised, "Amazon Cloud? In the domestic Internet industry, is there still room for foreign companies to survive? Alibaba Cloud has reached this point, even Amazon Cloud is afraid of it? Fighting locally will scare you. so?"

Boss Ma hummed: "Amazon Cloud is mainly aimed at e-commerce customers."

"Aiming at Alibaba Cloud?" Zhou Buqi laughed, "This is not surprising. In overseas markets, Amazon Cloud is not Ziwei Cloud's opponent, let alone the domestic market. Amazon Cloud is the only one that can win The best place to start is their advantages in e-commerce services.”

Boss Ma said: "Amazon Cloud has cut prices since it came out, and Alibaba Cloud will follow suit. All products will be reduced by 30% to follow suit. Don't blame me for reminding you that the domestic cloud computing industry will usher in a very fierce wave. industry."

"oh."

"If you stole some order from Zi Weiyun, don't look for me."

"Huh?" Only then did Zhou Buqi realize what he meant, and he was a little funny, "You're beating around the bush, just say it! Is Alibaba Cloud going to attack and steal Ziweiyun's business? Is there market competition? , what’s there to be embarrassed about?”

Boss Ma said: "I heard that 75% of 12306's online train ticket purchase traffic is handled by Ziweiyun."

"Maybe so."

Zhou Buqi no longer cares.

Boss Ma smiled and said: "Alibaba Cloud will share some of the burden."

Zhou Buqi said: "You can't make much money from this kind of business, right?"

"Earn a brand." Boss Ma didn't hide anything. "Getting this order is equivalent to having an important endorsement. The sales side can also relax and have the opportunity to get more government and enterprise business."

"Oh." Zhou Buqi's reaction was quite calm, "It's casual."

This ticket purchasing website is outsourced by relevant departments.

Ziweixing only provides elastic cloud services, and only undertakes the amazing traffic of the train ticket website to ensure the smooth and stable operation of the product. As for the front-end and operation of the product, it is outsourced to other related companies.

This related company is very aggressive.

If you want to make more money, you have to add advertising.

But the train ticket app is a national product, how can you add advertising?

They also have a way.

When confirming the payment, a verification code is required.

And this verification code has advertising attributes, which can display some advertising content and also find orders for artificial intelligence.

Now that artificial intelligence is on the rise, many companies are doing AI testing and need to find samples. For example, what is a red light and what is a green light needs to be determined by people, and then the machine learns, and the machine can distinguish between red and green lights in the future.

In this identification process, many companies have cooperated with verification codes.

This is normal, and both domestic and foreign countries do this.

But the operating company of the train ticket is too ugly. In order to grab the orders of using verification codes for AI identification, it does not distinguish the content at all, and there are many large-scale AI identification needs. For example, which of the following pictures are C cups, which are black stockings...

It has caused a great negative impact in society.

At this time, Ziwei Cloud released part of the train ticket App business to Alibaba Cloud, which means that it is only a transfer of part of the traffic undertaking business, which does not involve the front-end and operation fields, and it can be regarded as a statement of innocence.

Don't come to touch porcelain, this matter has nothing to do with Ziwei Cloud.
