Rebirth of the 92 Business Tycoon

Looking at the good introduction and meeting, Feng Yiping once again had a full understanding of how special Google is, or how weird it is.

Most people are arguing in anger or excitement, and the only ones who keep calm are the two who provoked the argument.

When the people around them have begun to use body language to emphasize their opinions, Page and Brin are used to them, so they can play around with their computers in their spare time, and are skillfully kept out of the vortex.

However, whenever everyone is a little lax, or a little discouraged, and doesn’t want to argue anymore, one of them will always say a few words, and these few words are like throwing into a calm water surface. A small stone swayed beautiful ripples, and immediately attracted people around him to join in.

In the end, those who were excited finally calmed down, because the future conceived by the new strategic director, although some science fiction, was very reasonable. When they thought of committing themselves to such a great cause, they were all over Full of mission and dedication desire.

Of course, Schmidt also explained in detail that in the process of achieving these great goals, Google will also become a great company, and all those who work hard for this goal will get high returns.

It is to realize your dreams and ambitions while still gaining a name and profit. No one will refuse such a thing.

In the end, only those people who are upset need to be persuaded, and this group of people all pointed the finger at the new director of strategy, because he proposed that Google must get involved in the hardware business in the future.

As soon as he put forward this statement, it immediately caused an uproar among the engineers.

We are a noble software company, why should we do hardware?

On this issue, Page and the others have not yet expressed their views. It seems that they have not made up their minds either.

And this question, for the reborn Feng Yiping, is that still a problem?

Apple's strategy of integrating software and hardware is unstoppable. After successfully reaching the top of the world's largest and most profitable high-tech company, other companies have followed suit.

The proud Microsoft finally lowered its profile and acquired Nokia. Not to mention starting a mobile phone, but also launched its own, to compete head-on with hardware companies.

At that time, Google also acquired Motorola. At the same time, it also launched its own tablet computer, as well as various successful or unsuccessful wearable devices.

FB Facebook also acquired a virtual technology company to produce VR equipment...

In short, there was no pure software company afterwards. The reverse is also true. In the Internet + era, the companies that have done well in China, which should be said to be hardware manufacturers, are also working hard to develop their own software, such as Huawei and Xiaomi.

However, you can never take these future results to the present as a reason to convince those who disagree. And many of those people's reasons, it seems, can indeed stand up.

Most male executives are more restrained at this time. Although software engineers are generally more casual, they are not 250, whose emotional intelligence is all negative. Unlike Schmidt, who is close to squeezing in, Director Feng was brought into the company by the two founders. This is the first official formality. meet. It's not easy to keep him from coming to stage too much.

However, some people don't care about so many, that is, the only woman present, and the most beautiful woman in the company. At the same time, because of the unclear things with Page, Marissa Mayer has a special status.

After Feng Yiping returned to school, he made a special trip to check her information and finally understood why he was a little familiar with her the first time I saw her? Because I saw her report on the Internet later, she had become Yahoo's at that time, and at that time, she had also become the number one beauty and the number one woman in Silicon Valley from the top beauty in Google.

However, many people commented on her at the time that her beauty really surpassed her ability to manage a large company.

"We are a company first, and as a company, the first consideration is the ratio of input to output, which is the value created, or the return to shareholders and employees." The ballpoint pen in Mayer's hand is on the table. After a few clicks on the document, he did not look at Feng Yiping, and looked around at the people around him.

"When the company was founded in 1997, we only had $1 million in assets. In the first round of financing in 1999, the company was worth $75 million. By the time Director Feng made your investment yesterday, the market value of our company had exceeded $1 billion.

In just more than four years, we have focused on the software business, so that we have made one million dollars into today's one billion dollars.

In the hardware industry, I think there has never been such a precedent, and it is estimated that it will not appear in the future."

At this time, someone added, "If we chose to make hardware at the beginning, we would not even be able to buy a production line for $1 million."

"Exactly," Meyer nodded at the man, and then looked directly at Feng Yiping, "So, even from the perspective of returns, I don't approve of the company's involvement in hardware production in the future."

She deserves to be an excellent debater on the school debate team at the time, and her reason is indeed very good.

Speaking of it, this is ironic. Silicon Valley originally started with hardware, such as Intel, HP, and Cisco. However, with the development of the Internet, these companies that integrate scientific research, technological development, production and sales have gradually become Yahoo! Companies that focus on software cover up the light.

Meyer was right. In recent years, Silicon Valley has seen a lot of things that have become rich overnight because they wrote a good algorithm. I have never heard of it. Some people have designed an excellent product. , And let various venture capitals flock to it, and instantly change from silk to rich.

In an environment of "make money and make software," as new Silicon Valley people, these software engineers actually look down on those who produce hardware from the bottom of their hearts.

"First of all, I want to say, Mayer, you are secretly swapping concepts,"

Isn't it just a debate, who is afraid of whom? At first, the sister who was arguing with herself often forced her to change her mouth to hands because of reason.

"From the current point of view, when we do hardware, we really don't make money from doing software. However, if we are involved in hardware, we are not a pure hardware company. Software is also our main business."

If it is a general occasion, if it is a general problem, if we inherit the traditional virtues of our Chinese nation as a good man, Feng Yiping would not argue against Meyer's seemingly pleasing stunner, but now, he can only fight **** for tat.

Meyer's eyes lit up, but his fighting spirit was more passionate. He smiled and said, "There is no outstanding precedent for a company that integrates software and hardware. Oh, there is Apple, but it is now on the verge of bankruptcy. Isn't it a good negative example?"

Feng Yiping did not respond to her positively, and asked everyone with a smile, "Who didn't, please raise your hand."

After waiting for a long while, no one raised his hand, and Meyer's face was a bit ugly, and this should not be an example.

Feng Yiping folded his hands and said with a smile, "One of Apple's products has pulled it back from the brink of bankruptcy. Then, who can tell that it will not launch an epoch-making product in the future and create a myth? ?"

"This is just your hypothesis. Who can tell that such a product will appear?" Mayer asked.

However, from the perspective of debate, the strength of this statement is very general.

I can tell, Feng Yiping said, “I want to remind everyone that Microsoft and IBM can become giants today and have a lot to do with the alliance they created together, right? This is enough to show that software and hardware work together. , There will be a result that one plus one is greater than two."

Meyer wanted to refute, Feng Yiping smiled and shook his head at her, please beauties, I would be happy to have a friendly debate with you on other topics at other times and places, but for now, let's forget it.

He simply stood up and circled the conference table, "In most cases, no matter how good software is, it must use hardware as a carrier to achieve its effects."

"We are determined to become a great company, but we cannot ask those hardware manufacturers to have such lofty ideals, and we cannot ask them to have the same vision and overall concept as ours.

It is very likely that we have good software, but we cannot find suitable equipment to use, or these equipment have been negotiated by the hardware manufacturer at a high price that is difficult to promote, that is, companies that only design software are likely to be restrained For hardware manufacturers,"

"The future we are looking forward to is connected to all online services by many devices around us, which may be mobile phones, glasses, watches, cars, etc., if we want to achieve this idea perfectly, we should control all aspects, from physical devices , To software applications,"

"The development of the times will break many industry barriers. Therefore, my opinion is that the future development trend of high-tech companies in the IT industry should be equipment plus services, or to put it simply, hardware plus software.”

Peppa and the others ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ have also stopped what they are doing, holding their hands, listening to Feng Yiping’s speech, he sideways to discuss a few words with Brin, "Feng’s opinion is our opinion. ,"

"We have clarified our future development plan. During this process, we cannot slow down our progress because the hardware cannot keep up.

Apple is a company I admire and admire very much. In the future, we should also get involved in the hardware industry. "

Schmidt immediately said, "I agree, but there are many ways to get involved in hardware manufacturing. I think we should only do design and find other factories for production. This is the most economical."

Sure enough, there are no fuel-efficient lamps.

Brin asked Mayer with a smile, "Marisa, do you have any comments?"

"No, you know, my main direction at school is artificial intelligence, and I got involved in hardware." Mayer smiled, how can there be a little anger?

Your sister, this woman, is terribly flexible. No wonder after she quit Google, she became a Yahoo! (To be continued.)
