Chapter 3212 We are all family!

This kind of mobile phone evaluation benchmarking software is related to two industries.

One is the Internet industry and the other is the smartphone industry.

They are all closely related to Zhou Buqi.

For him to stand up and uphold justice is not only because of his industry status, but also because of Ziweixing's mission.

The model of many mobile phone evaluation software now is actually similar to that of many rogue software in the past. It can make you fascinated. Ziweixing first became famous by eradicating the rogue software industry, tearing a hole in the BAT pattern of the Internet industry and rushing out.

After all these years, is the mission that Ziweixing pursued back then still there?

Of course Zhou Buqi still hopes that the industry can develop healthily.

The healthier it is, the better it is for him.

People who live in darkness like to fish in troubled waters. Boss Zhou has always been upright in doing business.

Boss Lei is now helpless in this kind of evaluation industry. He said: "Last year, Lao Luo launched an online battle with the founder of a mobile phone evaluation software. Do you know about this?"

Zhou Buqi said: "Well, I know, Lao Luo is not good at business, but he still has no problem with his words. After all, he is from New Oriental."

Lei Jun nodded, "You are right. He is good at debating, but not good at business. At least I have never publicly criticized this mobile phone evaluation industry on any occasion, and neither have other Xiaomi executives."

"Um?"

Zhou Buqi heard something in his words.

Lei Jun said calmly: "In last year's Internet fight, Lao Luo won a big victory. It can be said that he crushed the opponent. After several hours of debate, he won in all aspects. But this is just winning or losing in the debate. Let's put it down. In the market, Lao Luo can be said to be a complete failure.”

Zhou Buqi reacted immediately, "Retaliation?"

"Yeah." Lei Jun nodded, "I don't know if it's Lao Luo's temper or his public relations team that's not good enough. I don't understand why he wants to participate in such a debate. Is it just to vent his anger? Or is it because he wants to gain attention and traffic? I don’t know. It’s just a kid’s fight. After the fight, it’s impossible for the ratings of all Smartisan phones to go up.”

Zhou Buqi took a deep breath, "These people in the mobile phone evaluation industry are all in the same group."

"They are not in the same group, but at least they are protecting the common interests. They are all making money from mobile phone manufacturers." Boss Lei has already analyzed the plot thoroughly. "The competition between evaluation software is the key factor in the evaluation industry." The internal conflict between evaluation software and smartphones is a conflict between ourselves and the enemy. When making choices, they will definitely work together to protect the overall interests.”

Zhou Buqi agreed, "That's right."

Lao Luo is a bit of a hot-tempered person. He is fine as a teacher, but asking him to do business is really inappropriate. His character and philosophy are not enough. After he left New Oriental, he always had bad words for his old club. Mature and experienced investors can completely deny him based on this alone.

But some people just don't believe in evil, and they don't learn from the past mistakes. They still give money to invest with full trust. If they lose, they can only blame themselves.

This time the Internet fight was indeed won by Lao Luo.

But it is undoubtedly a fatal blow to Smartisan mobile phones, which has offended the mobile phone evaluation industry. From now on, Smartisan mobile phones will no longer be able to achieve high scores in evaluations. The vast majority of consumers do not know much about the performance and configuration of mobile phones, and they can only judge the quality of a mobile phone through the numerical scores.

To put it bluntly, the mobile phone evaluation industry has the right to evaluate mobile phones.

You offended the judges and still want to win the award?

The market recognition of Smartisan mobile phones will inevitably decline significantly.

Zhou Buqi's disapproval of Lao Luo was from a business perspective, and he still admired his sense of justice. Lao Luo did the right thing when it came to dating online. He was standing up for the smartphone industry.

However, all the costs were borne by him, and many people in the industry even gloated and laughed at him.

Zhou Buqi felt a little aggrieved, so he immediately took out his cell phone and called Wang Xiaochuan.

Wang Xiaochuan hasn't gotten off work yet.

He is responsible for the WeiDian business group, which includes not only WeiDian search, but also many software of the WeiDian system, such as WeiDian antivirus, WeiDian music, WeiDian browser, WeiDian input method, WeiDian mobile assistant, WeiDian Click on the dictionary and so on.

If Ziweixing wants to make an authoritative evaluation product, it will inevitably be included in the sequence of Weidian.

Zhou Buqi got straight to the point, "Xiaozhou, do you know about mobile phone evaluation software?"

Wang Xiaochuan said: "I know, I had this plan before."

"Have you had a plan? Didn't you implement it?"

Zhou Buqi is a bit puzzling.

Because "Weidian" can be said to be the largest software brand in China, almost all tool software products have the shadow of Weidian. In fact, many softwares do not make money, but contribute to building the "Weidian" brand.

Wang Xiaochuan said simply: "No, the business group has not passed. Later, I also chatted with classmate Yiming, and he was not optimistic about this business. It is controversial, requires a lot of investment, and lacks effective returns."

For a company like Ziweixing, if it wants to create a new product, it must be approved at all levels.

First there are business groups, then business lines, then business groups.

After the business group passes this test, it still needs to be approved by the CEO.

The reason why the CEO is the head of a company and is called the Chief Executive Officer is actually because of this. At the execution level, the CEO is the first decision-maker and needs to understand every product in every business line.

It’s just that Zhou Buqi is lazy and does not participate in these things. The power is delegated to the president Zhang Yiming.

Zhou Buqi asked: "There should be a market for this direction, right?"

Wang Xiaochuan hesitated and said: "This matter is really complicated. Whether there is a market or not... This is not the decisive factor."

"What is it?"

Zhou Buqi was very puzzled.

Wang Xiaochuan said, "Because someone doesn't want us to do it."

"Who?" Zhou Buqi opened his eyes wide, "Who can still direct us to do things?"

Wang Xiaochuan hurriedly said, "It's not what you think, it's the complexity of the market. I think you can go and find out from Astar."

"Huh?" Zhou Buqi was slightly startled, "Astar?"

Wang Xiaochuan said very obscurely, "The most popular mobile phone evaluation software on the market is called Antutu, which is very successful and has more than 100 million users."

"Damn!" Zhou Buqi immediately understood what he meant, "Astar is the biggest sponsor behind Antutu?"

Then, he glanced at Boss Lei, who was sitting opposite him and drinking red wine calmly.

I just want to curse.

Good Lei Bus, you set me up again?

If you think about it carefully, it's not difficult to analyze it.

Astar is the mobile phone manufacturer with the largest shipments in the world. Not only does it have a large overseas shipment, it is also the largest mobile phone manufacturer in the domestic market. With so many mobile phones sold, how can Astar not cooperate with the mobile phone evaluation industry?

Mr. Lei wanted to use Mr. Zhou's sense of morality and justice to take over the mobile phone evaluation industry, and by the way, he also cleared some non-market advantages that Astar had in the competition.

Wang Xiaochuan continued, "Not only that, Antutu's mobile phone evaluation was released a few years ago, and it didn't do well at the beginning. Later, it got financing and received guidance from this investor. It modified the business model to a certain extent, and changed towards... well, towards the direction of rogue software, and then it became a great success."

"Guidance from investors?" Zhou Buqi's heart moved slightly, knowing that the other party would not casually cut into this topic, "Who is the investor?"

Wang Xiaochuan said: "Fu Sheng."

"Huh!"

Zhou Buqi slapped his thigh.

Interesting!

They are all people around him!

It turns out that the people behind Antutu all point to Mr. Zhou.

Wang Xiaochuan said with a smile: "When Fu Sheng was at Ziweixing, his product concept was not quite in line with our values. He always liked to use some rogue means to win market position. Later, he resigned and was taken to the United States by you to start a business. Didn't he sell his Panda Mobile to Cisco?"

"Yes, it was sold, and the project was very successful."

Zhou Buqi now understood what was going on.

Wang Xiaochuan said: "Fu Sheng's team has a group of people. In addition to starting a business in the United States, he has not neglected investment in China. The main investment is some rogue software. It seems that he invested in seven or eight companies. Since last year, Antutu has come out and has been a great success. Well... Antutu can stand out, which is related to Fu Sheng's guidance and investment, and it should also be closely related to his matchmaking. Esda should be the one he contacted to help Antutu become the market leader."
