Rebirth of Cyber ​​Hegemony

"Lin Fei, how are the talks with FAW-Volkswagen?"

"Mr. Xiao, they only showed interest slightly, but when it came time for specific cooperation, they didn't take any substantive actions?"

"Do they not want to cooperate?"

"It should not be, they may be trying to bargain."

"We have given a very low price, do they still want to kill?"

"They said that our navigation technology is not particularly advanced, and some maps are also very slow to update. Compared with other similar navigation, we have no advantage."

"Humph…"

Xiao Jun, the founder of AutoNavi, waved his hand and let Lin Fei go out first.

Different from the later generations of AutoNavi navigation, the development of AutoNavi navigation in 2006 was not very good.

Not only is it not very good, it can even be said to be very general.

At first, AutoNavi was doing map surveying and mapping.

But this piece does not have much profit.

Later, they discovered that cars have a great demand for navigation, and their profits are relatively large.

So they started to move into car navigation.

However, it is not so easy to enter a car navigation system.

In the 1990s, many automobile companies in Europe, America and Japan developed navigation software and loaded it into their cars.

AutoNavi is just an unknown small company, and major automakers are not interested in AutoNavi.

Even if AutoNavi offers a very low and low price, the major automakers are not cold on AutoNavi.

Xiao Jun, who had a sense of crisis, realized that if Gothe continued like this, Gothe would never survive.

However, how to win the major automakers is a problem.

"Zhidong, are you free, have a drink."

"Why, Xiao Jun, so idle?"

"Come out, I'm a little depressed, talk to me."

"Okay, see you in the same place."

"Same place."

Xiao Jun, who couldn't find a way for a while, called his old classmate Wang Zhidong.

This Wang Zhidong is the Wang Zhidong who is the founder of Sina.

The two are classmates, one founded Sina and the other founded Gaode Map.

But now that Wang Zhidong has left Sina, he now founded Click Technology.

The two agreed to meet in the old place.

Said it is the old place, it is actually the barbecue stall where the two of them often ate together when they were in college.

do not know why.

Many a series of big guys like scull skewers.

Chen Yu likes it, Wang Zhidong likes it, and Xiao Jun likes it too.

"Zhidong, you are late."

"The company is a bit busy, so it's late."

"You click on the technology development is pretty good, congratulations, congratulations."

"Congratulations, it's just a small workshop enterprise, how can it compare to before."

Wang Zhidong drank a glass of cold beer.

Obviously, he has grievances about leaving Sina.

As for the reason.

It was not that Wang Zhidong was willing to leave, but was driven out like Apple Jobs.

But not all those who were kicked out can return to Apple like Steve Jobs, and create another glorious future.

Although Wang Zhidong founded Click Technology at this time, the click technology is not as good as Xiao Jun's Gaode map.

"It's better for you to do maps. I used to think that your business didn't have much development. Now there are more and more cars, and more and more people need navigation. You have a bright future."

"Immeasurable fart, I am so immeasurable, I don't have the time to come to you to complain."

Xiao Jun also drank a glass in one mouthful. Although the taste of the ice beer was very good, he was really in no mood at the moment.

"Why, what's the problem?"

"There are too many questions."

"Tell me, I will also help you refer to it."

"Alright. Zhidong, how can you say that you also set up a great company. Back then, you were a big brother on the Internet, and your vision must be higher than mine."

"Don't talk, Sina is my eternal pain, you don't know it."

"Yes, yes, I won't say it. Just say me. The FAW-Volkswagen, which has been talking about for a long time, has ignored us recently?"

"Probably not, FAW-Volkswagen should have navigation needs."

"There must be demand, but they feel that our technology is average and the map update is too slow to compare with other navigation."

"this…"

Wang Zhidong did not continue.

He is aware of the current development of Gothe.

Compared with some other map navigation companies, AutoNavi's strength is indeed average.

"Do they want to bargain?"

"It is possible, but they have nothing to say, and we have quoted them a very low price. Basically, we have no profit at this price. I just want to open the market first and ask for other things."

"Xiao Jun, your idea is right."

Wang Zhidong nodded: "There is no problem with the idea of ​​occupying the market first."

But although Wang Zhidong said that the concept is okay, but in terms of operation, that is another problem.

If your idea is not correct, you can Pk others.

"You have no other way?"

"It's not completely unavailable. We are preparing to cooperate with some domestic automakers. However, I guess it's useless."

"Why, domestic automakers also need navigation."

"They need it, but domestic car manufacturers are not very willing to cooperate with us. And now a lot of domestic cars are sold cheaply, but their requirements are very high, like BYD, they even cooperate with Philips."

"Philips navigation is very expensive, they are really willing."

"You ask me, who do I ask."

Obviously Xiao Jun was also depressed for a while.

Think about everyone as a national enterprise, and everyone helps each other for reasons.

However, these are all irrational thoughts.

Business competition is now globalized.

BYD also has difficulties with BYD. They are not very skilled in the car itself.

If the configuration is not higher, how can consumers pay the bill.

"Old classmate, don't just listen, help me advise?"

"let me see."

Wang Zhidong stroked his chin.

After a while, he said, "It's not totally impossible."

After all, it is the founder of Sina. Although Wang Zhidong is no longer at Sina, he still has his vision.

Although Xiao Jun's problem is troublesome, it is not an unresolved strategy.

"What way, Zhidong, you say it quickly."

"Don't worry."

"How can you not be in a hurry, I'm dying in a hurry, you don't know how much money we are doing for map navigation. The FAW-Volkswagen knows that our map updates are slow, damn, we want to be fast too. But The country is so large, not to mention the branch lines, but the main lines are a terrifying amount. Moreover, roads are built in various places at every turn. The map update alone is a huge sum of money."

"So, it's still a matter of money."

"A question of money?"

"right."

"FAW said that your technology is average and the map update is slow. It is not a problem of money. If you have money, can your technology not keep up?"

"Navigation technology is not difficult. In the 1990s, there has been no fundamental change. Everyone's technology is the same. As for the map update problem, there is no technology. Just send people to collect data continuously."

"So, whether it is technology or map updates, he is a matter of money."

"You mean, let us raise funds?"

Xiao Jun understood what Wang Zhidong meant and asked.

"right."

Wang Zhidong nodded: "Your map navigation is actually similar to the Internet. You don’t make much money in the early stage. If you want to make money, you must seize a certain market. But with your current market share and company’s reputation, even if it’s your business ability. Strong, it is estimated that it will be difficult to launch. The best way is to raise funds first. After getting the money, then expand the market."

"I want to raise money, too."

Xiao Jun smiled bitterly: "There are few venture capital companies that are interested in us."

Of course, not all venture capital companies are not interested in them.

Either some venture capitalists have average strength, or some venture capitalists want to invest but want to take too many shares.

Not to mention the controlling rights, even they need more than 70% of the shares.

"It's not without it. The problem is that you have to find the target."

"Zhidong, what do you mean?"

"Huanyu Technology."

At this time, Wang Zhidong suddenly mentioned Huanyu Technology.

"Looking for Huanyu Technology Investment?"

"Yes. Huanyu Technology is not only an IT company, but also a lot of actions in venture capital."

Although Wang Zhidong left Sina, he has always been concerned about Huanyu Technology.

Especially Chen Yu.

When the scale of Huanyu Technology was not large, he believed that Huanyu Technology must be Sina's strongest opponent.

But a few years have passed.

Huanyu Technology is no longer an opponent of Sina.

Um.

Sina at this time has no right to regard Huanyu Technology as an opponent.

Once Wang Zhidong once thought, if he did not leave Sina at that time, would their Sina be surpassed by Huanyu Technology?

After thinking about it rationally for a long time, Wang Zhidong understood that even if he was still on Sina, he was of no use.

"Zhidong, it seems that Huanyu Technology generally only invests in companies that are interested in it."

Xiao Jun naturally knows about Huanyu Technology.

"Generally speaking, this is the case, but... what if your business happens to be what Huanyu Technology needs?"

"How do you say this?"

"Xiao Jun, do you know Super Pear?"

"Of course, I don't know how popular this phone is."

"Then do you know that Super Pear has GPS positioning function?"

"It seems there are, but I didn't buy super pears."

"I'll show you."

Wang Zhidong took out a super pear himself: "Nuo."

"I went, when did I buy it?"

"Just bought it."

"Very beautiful, Huanyu Technology is really amazing."

Xiao Jun sighed with great emotion.

After playing around for a while, Xiao Jun checked the configuration of Super Pear.

"There is gps."

"right."

Wang Zhidong clicked on the gps, and then said: "If you think about it, Super Pear has GPS positioning function, do they have navigation needs?"

Positioning is not the same as navigation.

Positioning is just positioning, used to know where you are.

However, navigation not only allows consumers to know where they are, but also provides consumers with an analysis of all road sections.

"This...it's hard to tell."

"There must be."

Wang Zhidong said affirmatively: "Before Super Pear, the Lizi bracelet had GPS positioning function. At this time, this positioning function has been inherited from Super Pear. Although it is only positioning function now, if you add a navigation function."

"Zhidong, you have a good idea. However, there is a problem here. It seems that the users of mobile navigation are not big, and how do you make money?"

"You have to ask yourself about this, how do I know."

Wang Zhidong doesn't care about this: "I'm not a map maker, I only help you with ideas."

"Thanks."

Xiao Jun was happy in his heart.

Although Wang Zhidong didn't completely help him solve the problem, Wang Zhidong's suggestions gave him some inspiration.

For example, Huanyu Technology.

If they can embrace the giant tree of Huanyu Technology, they are not afraid of other navigation.

However, Xiao Jun did not contact Huanyu Technology immediately.

Although he thinks his classmate Wang Zhidong has a good opinion, it is not good for him to run to find Huanyu technology investment in this way.

Although Huanyu Technology is the pride of domestic national enterprises, they are not a charity company.

As a commercial company, they have to think about their own interests.

In order to strive for the greatest benefit, Xiao Jun plans to launch the mobile version of Super Pear Navigation to see the effect.

Isn’t their Super Pear App Store available to download apps?

Xiao Jun is going to negotiate with Huanyu Technology after getting the download data of the App Store.

This can be regarded as some capital.

certainly.

Take a step back.

If their mobile phone navigation is not effective and there is no downloading data, he can only find a way and not contact Huanyu Technology.

Just do it.

Navigation software does not have much technology.

In fact, they had already made AutoNavi navigation software before that.

It's just that what I did before was the car version, not the super pear version.

But the navigation software itself is not big, the big thing is only the map data, and then only need to update the data.

They have data for a long time.

As for the entire software itself, the AutoNavi Map only took a week to complete.

"Mr. Xiao, the navigation of our Super Pear version is complete."

"Has it been tested?"

"It has been tested, there are no problems, and it can be put on the shelves at any time."

"Well, let's put it on the shelves."

"But Mr. Xiao, how much is our navigation price?"

Assistant Lin Fei asked about the price of navigation.

"The price."

When it comes to price, it is really a headache.

At present, the price of navigation software is relatively expensive, especially for car navigation.

If some cars without navigation need to be equipped with a car navigation, at least 4,000 yuan or more.

It is also because navigation is expensive.

Therefore, ordinary cars do not have navigation, even if they do, they are top-equipped.

But this is on the car.

But if you put it on your phone, would it be 4000 yuan?

I really want to mark 4,000 yuan, and die properly.

Although Xiao Jun is not engaged in the Internet, he has some understanding of the Internet.

Not to mention 4000 yuan, even if it is 400 yuan, it may not be sold.

Take a look at the apps in the Super Pear App Store. Most of them cost tens of dollars, and those with more than 100 dollars are rare.

And many of them cost a few yuan, 1 yuan.

This is not the most.

Although many apps in the Super Pear App Store are chargeable, most of them are free software.

Which paid software is willing to use?

Better to be free.

Even if you are free under the banner of UU reading www.uukanshu.com, you can charge for it in the app.

Like some small games.

Some mini games are free, but some sad levels, if you can’t pass, then you will be prompted to recharge.

For their navigation, Xiao Jun has been studying Super Lizi these days.

For their application store, I also have some understanding.

At this time, Lin Fei asked about the charge... Xiao Jun grabbed his fist, and said with a heartbreak: "Lin Fei, we don't charge any more, it's free."

Anyway, he doesn't plan to make money in the Super Pear App Store.

His biggest goal is to find Huanyu Technology to invest.

As long as the downloaded data is good, he has the capital to negotiate with Huanyu Technology.

As for whether to make money in the app store, it doesn't matter anymore.
