Rebirth: I Want to Surf

Yingshi Building.

Another morning, just got to work.

Yao Yuan started the SMS Union in 2001, and recruited the first batch of grassroots employees in 2002. These people have been following him for at least 5 years, and their salaries are considerable.

Some bought a car, and some bought a house with a loan.

These old employees and technical backbones already have a vague meaning of "white collar".

White-collar workers are actually a sense of atmosphere. When others are squeezing the bus, you drive into the company’s underground garage. You don’t even need to wear thick clothes. When you meet colleagues, you can chat casually. Click on the fund stock market, current affairs news, hold a coffee cup in your hand...

This is called the sense of atmosphere, and Shanghai is currently doing better.

As the company continues to grow, there will inevitably be class divisions. From those with an annual income of tens of millions to tens of thousands, a group is like a small country, and there will be all kinds of bad things that should happen.

Later generations of Tencent have started to fight corruption internally...

In the CEO's office, Yao Yuan didn't have to worry about these for the time being. He habitually browsed through today's news first, especially Google's—Google announced a big event a while ago, which shocked the industry.

After reading the news, he picked up a bunch of reports to read.

The top one is the various data analysis of Double Eleven. Now the technology is backward and not so detailed, but it can be used for reference.

As he watched, Yinyin was also busy. In the morning, he usually arranged his work schedule. Is there any latest situation? Do you want to make some adjustments?

"Yeah, okay, thank you very much, see you tonight!"

Yinyin put down the phone and said, "I have an appointment with Lin Bin for you, at nine o'clock in the evening."

"knew!"

After a while, Yin Yin said: "Brother Dong, please go to the summary meeting."

"What summary meeting?"

"About Double Eleven."

"Push it, I'm not interested...hey wait!"

Yao Yuan delegated power to Liu Qiangdong, so it would be inconvenient to intervene too much, but suddenly thought of something, paused and said: "In my name, it is best to register related trademarks, such as Double Eleven, Double Eleven Carnival , Double Eleven online shopping carnival and the like.”

"Can this be registered?"

"It should be possible. Let their legal department handle the details."

"OK!"

Historically, Taobao has registered more than a dozen trademarks to prevent competitors from gaining popularity.

If it is "November 11", it is a public date and cannot be registered. But "Double Eleven" is a literal design, and it can be registered if it can be attributed to the category of advertising and business.

After Taobao made the Double Eleven popular, friends and merchants came to chat one after another, and Taobao sued them.

Don't say it, it's still useful.

For example, JD.com first promoted "Jingdong Double Eleven". After the defendant was accused, it was changed to "11.11", and later it simply hatched a "6.18" by itself.

When it comes to Double Eleven, most people think of Taobao and Tmall.

"..."

Not long after, Yao Yuan finished reading the report and felt that he hadn't gained much.

According to the data handed over by Liu Qiangdong, the final sales were 110 million. He thought it was watery, but he didn't want to pursue it. As for e-commerce, it is strange that there is no moisture.

According to the VAM agreement, sales in 2009 should reach 7 billion.

In Yao Yuan's vision, Meizu mobile phones will be launched in 2009, which can greatly supplement revenue. If it is not enough, he has also prepared other measures.

This method is more than just water, it is simply flooding Jinshan.

The sales of e-commerce are essentially selling things. As long as the data can be uploaded, how can I sell them? There are many tricks.

Looking at the report, it was past ten in the blink of an eye.

Xiao Mo suddenly made a phone call and said, "Boss Yao, the license plate is ready, and my comrade-in-arms is here too, do you want to meet?"

"Okay, come up!"

"Who is it?" Yinyin asked.

"Xiao Mo's comrades-in-arms are here."

"laugh!"

It's time for Yinyin to watch the fun, so she runs outside to clean up and make room for watching the show later.

Not long after, Xiao Mo led three people in.

Some are tall and some are short, some are strong and some are thin, and their eyes are all normal. It's not like I'm a bodyguard and I have to exude a sense of mastery. That's because I've watched too many movies.

"This is Mr. Yao, these are my comrades-in-arms, the best..."

Little Mo Balabala introduced the name, but Yao Yuan didn't remember it, it was just a trick anyway, Xiao Mo still had a surname anyway.

Immediately following is the demonstration session, where the three of them take turns to perform three moves and two moves to show that they really have kung fu. Yao Yuan also enjoyed watching it, and said: "Work hard in the future, and you will never be treated badly in terms of remuneration. Xiao Mo is your team leader, follow his arrangements."

After finishing speaking, he shook hands one by one, "Please take care of me in the future!"

With the addition of three bodyguards, his sense of security has greatly increased. He is afraid of death.

In the winter of 2007, at the gate of Yingshi Building, he was stabbed by a mental patient and died—that would be too shameful.

…………

As usual, we passed the evening rush hour.

Yinyin matched Yao Yuan today with a casual style, a short padded jacket and jeans, and a thin sweater with a high collar inside.

When I came to the underground parking lot, there were two shiny new cars parked there. A black line was elegant and imposing, a Mercedes-Benz S600, top-of-the-line, with a floor price of more than two million.

The other one is much more ordinary, Buick GL8, a seven-seater commercial vehicle.

Yao Yuan originally wanted to buy a Maybach, but on second thought, who the hell knows about a Maybach these days? Maybe they think you drive a buggy.

Today it's a Buick.

Xiao Mo sat in the driver's seat, and a new guy sat in the co-pilot—the number of accompanying bodyguards doubled!

These days, there are few commercial vehicles, and most of them are for business use. Yinyin likes it very much when she comes up, because there is a row of seats at the back, so she can do a lot of things.

A few people arrived at an unremarkable small restaurant near Tsinghua University.

After dinner, there was no one there, and when I went in, I saw Lin Bin, the vice president of Google's Chinese Academy of Engineering, and a senior talent Yao Yuan once recruited.

"Boss Yao!"

"teacher LIN!"

"Why……"

Lin Bin always called him novel, and said with a smile: "You call me Dean Lin, at most I blush, and you call me Teacher Lin, I feel ashamed."

"A master is a teacher, and you have such a temperament that you really want people to ask for advice."

Um?

Lin Bin touched his prematurely aging hairline, and couldn't help but smile. He has met many bigwigs in the Internet industry, and Yao Yuan is the most interesting one.

Three people are seated, order first.

The restaurants near the school are delicious and cheap. Yao Yuan ordered a few dishes bluntly, emphasizing the one called "candied sweet potatoes", and said: "It must be able to draw candied sweet potatoes, otherwise I won't give you money."

"Don't worry, Lasi is inherited from my ancestors, it just takes a little effort, you have to wait for a while."

The boss patted his chest and entered the back kitchen.

"I haven't seen you for half a year since the last press conference. How are you doing?"

"As usual, you are busy every day, and your movements are not small. I have heard about Double Eleven."

"Hey, that's the e-commerce business, I don't care much about it now."

After exchanging pleasantries for a while, Yao Yuan said: "I think you also know the purpose of my visit. Not long ago, Google announced the establishment of an alliance to jointly develop the Android system. I once again formally invite you to join Meizu and participate in the R\u0026D alliance..."

(no more!)
