Chapter 849 Adhere to the road of technological innovation

From this point of view, Zhou Buqi feels that he is better than all his domestic counterparts.

No matter what you do, you must first have a correct understanding.

With the right understanding, you can make the right choice. Only with the right choice can the next hard work and hard work be brought into play.

Wrong cognition, wrong choice, and it will be very difficult to correct if you find the mistake in the future.

Zhou Buqi's understanding of the Internet is actually his persistence in technology, and his choice between the Lenovo model and the Huawei model.

It just so happens that all domestic Internet companies follow the Lenovo model.

This is obviously wrong.

Compared with the Internet industry in China and the United States, the internal logic is different. The internal logic of Silicon Valley is technological innovation; the domestic Internet logic is the innovation of business models.

For example, Amazon's cloud computing catalyzed by e-commerce is a technological innovation; for example, Google's deep learning network catalyzed by image search is also a technological innovation.

Domestically, more are playing with business models.

Use better business models to build your own moat, from code scanning payment to online car-hailing, from food delivery to Internet finance.

Pros and cons.

The domestic advantage is that it can use a better business model to maximize product services. Many domestic website and app designs are much better than those in Silicon Valley. Taobao is the best e-commerce platform in the world, and WeChat is no worse than any instant messaging product in the world.

But here comes the problem.

Business model innovation, what kind of moat can there be? If you make it, others can make it right away. There is no creative moat. Technological innovation is different, and others can't learn it even if they want to.

Only by positioning the core of the enterprise as technology can it have the greatest competitiveness and vitality.

It is especially important that domestic Internet companies are keen on innovating business models, largely due to the tacit approval of monopoly by relevant departments.

The business models of major companies rely on monopoly logic.

Once the time is right, the regulatory authorities will start wielding their knives, and one of these giants will suffer.

Sooner or later, the country will have to fight against monopoly.

The ultimate return of the giants must also follow in the footsteps of Silicon Valley, from the innovation of business models to the road of technological innovation, and use powerful technology as a moat.

In fact, it is another kind of monopoly.

Monopoly of business models is prohibited; technology monopoly is legal and compliant, and even supported and protected by the whole world, which is to protect intellectual property rights.

Monopoly is the ultimate mystery of making big money in business.

To monopolize, but not violate the law, we must work hard at the technical level.

The positioning of Ziweixing is to be a technologically innovative company.

If you want to do the best technology, you need the best talents.

Silicon Valley can gather talents from all over the world, but there is no such environment in China. The only way is to go out. Go to Korea and Japan, go to Europe and the United States to set up R\u0026D centers, and hire local senior talents for my use.

In this model, Huawei has already taken the lead.

The journey has been difficult, but experience has been accumulated, and we can be regarded as pioneers. This year, it successfully opened up the German market, which is equivalent to winning the whole of Europe.

Most of Huawei's technological innovations in the next few years will come from overseas scientific research institutions, and more domestic ones will be responsible for some auxiliary and marginalized technological exploration.

If Ziweixing does this, it will have a unique advantage that belongs to the Internet.

Communication technology has a process link. Even if you have mastered the technical principles, without precision and equipment, if you can't do it, you can't do it. You can only let foreigners do it.

The Internet is different, technology is code.

If we meet, we will.

Some achievements of Ziweixing's overseas scientific research institutions can be seamlessly connected with those in China, so that the relevant technologies can be coordinated with China and foreign countries to the maximum extent, and the maximum effect can be exerted.

Why can Baidu challenge the world giants in the field of artificial intelligence?

Because Baidu spent huge sums of money to build a Baidu artificial intelligence laboratory in Silicon Valley. Only by being at the forefront of the times and rationally utilizing the advantages of global resources can we continue to develop our own technological mission.

It is impossible to challenge the Silicon Valley giants only by relying on this domestic technical strength.

But there is no rush.

Ziweixing's domestic science and technology departments, Ziweixing Engineering Institute and Ziweixing Research Institute, have not even completed the construction of the headquarters, and there are no branches in China.

Zhou Buqi said: "Since I have mentioned this point, I will say a few more words. The overseas strategy must not be shaken. This time we are fighting with Penguin in the social field. Regardless of success or failure, the overseas strategy must not be changed. This time the distributed The page loading system is a great opportunity. This system is not the same as an open platform."

Xu Liangjie came back from the United States. He knows how powerful Silicon Valley's technology is, and he agrees with Boss Zhou's point of view, "Although we sold the open platform last time, the audience for this system is relatively small. The page loading system It’s different, it’s very necessary for any website. Especially for some well-known websites with high traffic, it’s almost a must-have system.”

Shen Xiangyang pondered: "This system... is not too technically difficult, at least not too difficult for Silicon Valley. The main thing is creativity wins. Now that the product is launched, creativity is no longer an advantage. With Silicon Valley's technical level, it is very difficult. It can follow up soon. But in several other markets, it can still maintain its technological advantages.”

Zhou Buqi waved his hand, "Silicon Valley doesn't need to think about it, we should settle the Chinese, Japanese and Korean markets first. The European and American markets are too difficult, and that is the base camp of Silicon Valley. Our goal is to make the Asian market the base camp of Ziwei Star."

The great success of this distributed page loading system has given great confidence to several senior executives, especially the returnees Xu Liangjie and Shen Xiangyang.

It seems that it is about to rush out of Asia and go to the world.

He Yang coughed lightly and reminded: "This is a commendation meeting."

Everyone roared with laughter.

Next, Wang Haiyang gave the reward result according to the company's regulations-1 million cash plus 1 million shares of stock.

The award standard is the same as that of Shi Jinglin last month.

Give more money and let Cheng Binghao improve his life.

Stocks can't be liquidated, and you have a lot of money, but you don't have much money in your hands. Give him more cash, at least to settle the tuition fee for the child's advanced kindergarten.

After the vote, the proposal was passed.

After this incident, Zhou Buqi asked again: "Is the price of this system low?"

Cheng Binghao said: "Look at the market demand. Now we are exclusive, and the price of a single set is about 4 million, which is really not high. The main reason is that there is a broad customer audience. These domestic websites are short of money, and the price is too high. "

He Yang asked: "Is this a form of buyout?"

"right."

"What about renting instead? The annual rent is 700,000-800,000. Like many software, you have to pay a service fee every year and buy and sell for a long time."

Cheng Binghao said: "It's very difficult, the development of technology is too fast. I think that after three or four years, even domestic enterprises can make this system independently. The best result is to buy it out. For sale, we promise to provide 3 years of free after-sales service."

The meaning is very clear, take advantage of when others can't do it, and quickly harvest a wave in the form of buyouts.

Just like many routines of Silicon Valley giants.

After a few years, most of the other domestic companies will be able to do it too...they'll be honest and let it go. Anyone who dares to compete with Ziweixing for business will overturn the table.

Ziweixing can stand on a higher dimension and directly open source this system with noble feelings.

Share with all peers for free.

Xu Liangjie said: "In the final analysis, the foundation of this system is still distributed. The Academy of Engineering must seize this opportunity, take advantage of our leadership in the distributed field, and devote more energy to this aspect."

Cheng Binghao said: "Yes, the next thing that the Academy of Engineering will start to fully launch is the scheduling and monitoring system to coordinate the relationship between servers and maintain the stability of the website..."

What follows is a series of technical discussions.

Zhou Buqi was dizzy.

He Yang, Wang Haiyang, and Nie Caijun were also drowsy.

Fortunately, I understand it in general.

Next, they plan to take advantage of the opportunity of distributed cutting-edge technology to develop more distributed systems to improve and optimize the performance of the website.

Help peers improve their websites and make their websites even better.

Kind of like cutting leeks.

Come in waves, grow a little longer and cut a stubble, a little longer and cut a stubble.

The last question is very crucial.

"Should we sell our system to Penguin?"

"Not for sale."

Zhou Buqi's response was straightforward.

Cheng Binghao nodded, expressing his understanding. Although from the perspective of Ziweixing Engineering Institute, the more customers the better, especially such big customers.

As a company veteran, M8-level executives must look at issues from the perspective of corporate strategy.

Zhou Buqi said indifferently: "At present, Weidian is still providing technical support for Soso, and we also need to provide some after-sales services for the open platform. These are required by the contract. Apart from this, all cooperation with them is suspended. "

He Yang said with a smile: "They launched "QQ Farm", this is our reason."

...

The bigger the business, the easier it is to make money.

Unknowingly, Ziweixing has opened up another business path. The outsourcing service of Ziweixing Engineering Institute has achieved amazing results, which is definitely a good start.

Well, domestic Internet companies are working hard to innovate business models, and the precipitation and accumulation of technology are far from enough.

In this case, let them work hard to innovate the business model!

If you have any technical needs, please come to Ziweixing Engineering Institute for help!

Once the market of the Academy of Engineering is opened, it is equivalent to adding a new bargaining chip to the value evaluation of Ziwei Star, which can play a huge role in the next B round of financing.

This is also a surprise.

However, the most important thing is the strong dialogue between Ziweixing and Penguin in the social field.

If the effect of this battle is significant, then Ziweixing's valuation will properly exceed that of Penguin. Ali and Baidu are no problem, and Ziweixing is likely to become the largest Internet company in China without being listed.

look forward to!

First go to the United States to smell the latest economic smell.

Look at the effect of the subprime mortgage crisis.
