1991 Starting from the core

Ye Rudai and her husband were strolling in the garden downstairs, while Fu Zhenhua's third daughter, Fu Xiaoling, was twelve years old and had just entered the first grade of junior high school. Because it was a good time for her father to start working, Fu Xiaoling came to the provincial capital when she was just over a year old. She was a little girl who grew up with Yuanxin, and she became the king of children in the yard without hesitation.

When Little Sugar Bean came back this summer, it happened to coincide with her graduation from elementary school, so within an hour, Little Sugar Bean started following the little girl everywhere.

Ye Rudai glanced ahead and saw that her daughter was having fun with a group of children aged five, six, seven or eight years old. The laughter echoed throughout the garden, and she couldn't help but smile: "You said to change the place, this little girl is so noisy. How many people must be annoyed..."

"Haha, who of our daughters will be annoyed? Even if you want to be annoyed, you have to hold it in." Su Yuanshan's face was full of pride: "Xiaodou is good-looking and has a sweet mouth. Whoever dares to hate her must have a mental state. Something wrong."

"..." Although she knew her husband was a bit messy, Ye Rudai still nodded in agreement: "You're right!"

"Haha, but you can't tell when you grow up... It's easy to run a business, but it's really difficult to educate your children well. Sometimes, in addition to the parents' hard work, it also depends on luck..."

Su Yuanshan looked away from his daughter. He could clearly feel that these children were subconsciously protecting his daughter - maybe it was taught by their parents, or maybe it was the nature of "big children". Generally speaking, judging from the performance of these children, there is no problem with the education of adults.

This also made Su Yuanshan extremely pleased.

"Her luck must be no problem." Ye Rudai said firmly, and then pulled Su Yuanshan to sit on a chair aside.

…

"Whose idea was it to post the post?" After sitting down, Su Yuanshan looked at her with bright eyes.

"Li Yanhong and the others...or the entire domestic team." Ye Rudai smiled, shook her head, and sighed slightly: "Now our IPO is imminent, and the domestic branch is sitting on the second Silicon Valley, but in the past few years, There haven’t been many breakthroughs…”

"You're not talking about the market, are you?" Su Yuanshan asked with a smile - eso also has no rivals in the country and is a dominant player.

"Of course. It's mainly about business. At present, almost all of our business innovations are brought about by Silicon Valley. And in terms of advertising revenue, Europe and the United States account for most of the market. The domestic side also includes the entire Asian region... …”

After a pause, Ye Rudai said softly: "Income can be explained by the level of economic development, but business cannot... So Lao Li is still a little anxious. I am just a little worried about what they will think under this kind of collective will. It would be quite radical. That’s why I followed your phone call and asked about it during the meeting.”

"Well, it's okay, the Internet needs to be radical."

"..." Ye Rudai couldn't laugh or cry when she saw this guy's carelessness: "You know what I'm talking about... I'm worried that they are too persistent and want to compete with the Silicon Valley team."

"Isn't that what it should be?" Su Yuanshan asked with a smile: "Do you think you still have any rivals in the search field?"

"No. No matter in terms of technology or in the current market, it is difficult for any new company to catch up with us." Facing her husband, Ye Rudai certainly would not be modest: "Even in markets like Niguo, we have overtaken Yahoo!" out……"

"How do you maintain your passion and innovation when you have no rivals?"

"Relying on user demand to drive? But the rise of the Internet has taught us that user demand is largely 'modification' and 'customization', which is an upgrade of existing demand rather than a new model." Su Yuanshan put his hand on his wife's knee He went up and patted it gently: "Internal competition is also competition. As long as it is benign and orderly, it is worth promoting."

Ye Rudai nodded slowly after being silent for a while, indicating that she recognized Su Yuanshan's statement.

Su Yuanshan smiled when he saw this: "Then let's continue talking about Tieba - I thought about it seriously before and found that this is a damn genius idea... I can even tell now that it will become the largest Internet community."

"It's not that exaggerated, is it?"

"Listen to me, there must be! But... we must also clearly realize that it is difficult to monetize the traffic of a pure community, or a forum-shaped community... Moreover, because of this method that can be created by yourself through keywords , which can easily cause management confusion.”

"Management? Just select administrators to manage according to the first-come principle or the principle of democratic recommendation, right?" Ye Rudai frowned slightly and asked, "Isn't that what the forum is like?"

"Then have you ever thought about how many 'forums' this forum will form? A thousand, ten thousand, or ten million?"

Ye Rudai was immediately stunned.

Yes, according to the current ideas, it is indeed possible to form unlimited discussion centers, or Tieba... Moreover, this is the core idea and competitiveness of Tieba.

"But even if there are infinite ones, as long as the system is set from the beginning and users follow the system..."

"Innocent." Su Yuanshan interrupted Ye Rudai unceremoniously.

Ye Rudai stared at her husband: "Why are you so naive? Then how do you think you should control it? And I don't think the administrator of the website needs to control every user! You said it yourself, the Internet is open , free and shared!”

Seeing that his wife was becoming more and more confident as she spoke, Su Yuanshan couldn't help but became speechless, and asked with a smile: "When did I say that "the Internet is open, free, and shared"? This was shouted out at the WEB conference in 1995. Slogan...I never said it."

"What I have always said is that the Internet is life and the future."

"you……"

"Let me ask you, you said the administrator will be responsible. What if the administrator is a psychopath? What if he is a shoe cult? What if he teaches people to commit crimes? What if he teaches people to commit suicide? What if he teaches people to harm themselves?"

Ye Rudai was frightened when Su Yuanshan asked him what to do. After a long while, he murmured: "How can there be such a thing...and even if there is, someone will report it. Once the report is reported, it will be dealt with directly."

"Report? Don't forget, Tieba is essentially a service that focuses on 'people are divided into groups'." Su Yuanshan shook his head gently: "Decentralized services, but require centralized management, this is a difficult problem, you need to be in This must be taken into consideration when designing a product. At the same time, its commercial value must also be considered from the beginning... There is traffic, but if this traffic is only for producing content and providing retention, in addition to increasing the load on the server, , it doesn’t have much effect, and this is something you need to consider in the long term.”

"At the same time, you must also consider that eso is an international enterprise. How to effectively coordinate multiple languages ​​​​is also very important..."

"There is some consideration in this plan. It identifies different commonly used keywords and then releases related links... and also plans to introduce an automatic translation system to achieve cross-language communication on the same topics and interests." After a pause, Ye Rudai gave an example: "For example, if you enter game, you will enter the English community by default; if you enter game, you will enter the Chinese community. In the English community..."

"Post it." Su Yuanshan reminded.

"...In the English game forum, we can provide a jump to the Chinese game forum, or directly insert the essence of the thread, or simply open a small area for the essence to be displayed."

Su Yuanshan thought for a while and nodded: "Well, that's not bad."

"But what you said before requires centralized management... I think it's very difficult." Ye Rudai frowned again.

"The Internet will definitely be integrated into life, so it is destined that it cannot have absolute freedom." Su Yuanshan said seriously: "This is the awareness that everyone should have."

…

…

After returning home, Ye Rudai communicated directly with Li Yanhong and others on EM.

Su Yuanshan stood behind and took a few glances, and found that these people were indeed a little carried away by the idea. They didn't think too much about it, only the product and user interaction itself. When Ye Rudai proposed management, everyone in the group was at a loss.

It seems that the birth of Tieba will take some time.

And Su Yuanshan is not sure whether this largest Chinese community that once swept the entire Chinese Internet will become the largest community in the world due to historical changes...

But judging from the current thinking of Li Yanhong and others, at least in terms of mutual exchanges at home and abroad, the plan is still sufficient.

…

On October 20th, Yuanxin’s long-postponed autumn press conference was finally held.

As expected by Yuanxin's marketing and marketing department, the response to this press conference... was indeed not very good.

After all, it doesn’t matter if you don’t release the 4S, but if you release an iPad, it’s still air... no matter what, it makes people feel uncomfortable.

In comparison, the drones and sports cameras that Yuanxin temporarily pulled in to make up the numbers are more eye-catching.

With the end of the Yuanxin press conference, Sony, Xinghai, Giant, Samsung, etc. have announced new product conferences within a month...

…

"Obviously, these guys are waiting for us."

Su Yuanshan raised his feet and looked at the latest report handed over by Wen Xiaoqian and joked: "If we launch 4S, they obviously won't dare to make such a big show of it..."

On the day after the Yuanxin press conference ended, the sales volume of Yidoo4 actually increased by a few points... Obviously, this was because the waiters couldn't wait any longer, so they bought it.

Then, as soon as the news came out about the press conference of several other mobile phone manufacturers that had been following Yuanxin to hit the high-end, or that wanted to go high-end, the sales of Yidoo4 suddenly dropped by a few points.

"Mr. Shan, does this mean that these newly released mobile phones are based on Yidoo4?" Wen Xiaoqian blinked and analyzed.

"Well, that's the theory." Su Yuanshan said with a self-deprecating smile: "These guys asked us to divide Qilin last time..."

"...Isn't it a bit too much?"

"Actually, it's not too much. Their orders for Kirin will be seen by us." Su Yuanshan closed the report and said with a smile: "This shows that these guys subconsciously regard us as the ultimate challenge target! They don't want us to Judging from Kirin’s shipments and seeing any moves on their part…”

"...Then it won't be divided, right?"

"Then it depends on whether they are really capable? If their shipment volume can exceed that of Yuanxin, then it will be fine if they are divided..."

Su Yuanshan pulled back his feet and opened the email client on his computer.

A new email popped up from Steve Jobs.

Clicking on the content of the email, Su Yuanshan leaned on it with just one glance.

The news that Apple was going to hold a new product launch conference quickly spread throughout the technology circle.

In the past few years, Apple, which has always been committed to changing the world, seems to have waned. Even when Steve Jobs returned, he remained very "low-key". Apart from releasing an iPod, embracing X86 on MAC, and taking the lead in adopting dual-core processors, no other amazing products have been born.

As a result, all technology product enthusiasts have turned their attention to Yuanxin.

On the forum, some senior Apple fans ridiculed Yuanxin, saying that Yuanxin is "a hero who makes Shuzi famous", which also attracted a lot of siege from Yuanxin fans. The scene became very popular and even spread abroad.

This also shows that the concentration of faith in Yuanxin is quite high now.

"Apple only released new desktops and notebooks in May this year, and unless they turn around and cooperate with Intel, it is impossible to come up with iterative products in a short period of time."

In Duan Yongping's office, Su Yuanshan held a tea cup and frowned: "Their existing products are not enough to support a new conference."

"Meaning they have a new product?"

"Yeah." Su Yuanshan nodded: "I don't know what new product it is. Mr. Qiao is so dishonest. He hides everything and it's very annoying..."

Duan Yongping coughed lightly: "Mobile phone?"

"It might be a mobile phone, or it might be a tablet." Su Yuanshan breathed out softly: "To be honest, Apple still has appeal now. It is the only one that can threaten us in high-end products."

Duan Yongping blinked and laughed: "You are not giving Kutaragi Ken any face..."

"Sony is too tied to us and too deeply influenced by us. They can design excellent products, but after our designs catch up, they can only make differentiated breakthroughs rather than revolutionary breakthroughs." Su Yuanshan said I bluntly point out the fundamental reason why Sony mobile phones have been beaten by Yuanxin in the high-end field, and in the mid-range products, they have to face the extremely cost-effective giants, Zhongxin and other companies, as well as Xinghai Samsung and the like... Therefore, the mid- to low-end mobile phone market as a whole presents a situation of disputes among the heroes.

"But Apple is different. Qiao always has ideas." Su Yuanshan pursed his lips and frowned deeply.

iPhone? Or a tablet?

But either way, it means that Apple's sudden appearance is very likely to win the six-month window left by Yuanxin.

This is like Yuan Xin leaving soup for the younger brothers, but Apple said "bring it to you".
