Top of the big era

After all, Zhou Buqi took Wen Zhixia and Wu Yu home to recognize the family.

Wu Yu is happy and natural, just like going back to her own home, there is a familiar intimacy. Wen Zhixia, on the other hand, was a bit reserved, and she would blush when talking to anyone, especially when receiving the greeting gift from her mother, she was extremely ashamed.

Even Zhou Buqi couldn't stand it anymore, and complained: "Mom, what time is it now, and give back the gold necklace? Isn't it too old-fashioned?"

Dad Zhou Jianjun scolded: "What do you know? Get lost!"

Necklace means tightly locked; gold means indestructible.

Zhou Buqi was angry, and said stubbornly: "Dad, I think you've been a little drifting lately? If you make some money in the stock market, you'll be fine? How about I invite grandpa to play for a few days?"

Zhou Jianjun almost died of anger, "I'll beat you to death!"

Zhou ran away without any hesitation.

Wen Zhixia was dumbfounded, feeling that the father and son were very strange.

When it was close to lunch, Zhou Buqi received a call, saying that he wanted to leave.

My mother was very dissatisfied with this, and criticized: "Xiao Wen came to the house for the first time, so the family should sit down and have a meal, why go out for a run? Can't we deal with the big holidays later?"

The father expressed his support for his son.

I think men should focus on their careers.

If you succeed in your career, your family will be stable. If the career is not doing well, a stable family can also become unstable.

...

Location: Judelou Restaurant.

Characters: Zhou Hongyi, Zhou Buqi.

"Xiao Zhou, have you been here?"

"No."

"Then you have to try it out. There are only six or seven places in the country that can make authentic Manchu banquets, and this Judelou is one." Zhou Hongyi strongly recommended it, as if drooling.

Zhou Buqi was very curious, "Oh? Palace food?"

Zhou Hongyi smiled and said: "It's true, the chef here is a descendant of the royal chef, I guarantee you will want to come again after eating."

"Really? Then you have to taste it."

Zhou Buqi smiled, his state was very calm.

If the enemy does not move, I will not move.

Soon, the food will be served.

Vinegar sea cucumber, chrysanthemum roasted meat, fried stinging head, dry-roasted small yellow croaker, diced meat in sauce, pork in sauce, shredded pork in clear sauce, fried meatballs with bergamot, braised mullet egg soup, boiled meat and pork, braised oxtail ...

One dish after another can be described as full of color, fragrance and taste.

Zhou Buqi ate a mouthful of the meat in the bad juice, which was very fragrant. The Yinhong soup is made from hawthorn, which relieves the greasyness of the pork belly. It tastes like it melts in the mouth, soft and sweet, and has an endless aftertaste.

Zhou Hongyi also seemed to be a foodie, and introduced: "It is said that Lord Qianlong tasted this dish among the people when he went to the south of the Yangtze River, and then he couldn't stop, so he brought the cook back to the palace and turned it into a court dish."

Zhou Buqi was full of praise, "Yes! Not bad! Better than Diaoyutai Hotel!"

After a few mouthfuls of food, Zhou Hongyi couldn't hold back any longer, and said with a smile, "You have Xiaonei as the basic disk, and then you are the security guard for Friends.com and Weidian. Your strategic planning is really good."

"Really?" Zhou Buqi put down his chopsticks, took a bite of cheese and fruit ice, and shook his head slightly, "At this time last year, I almost couldn't do it anymore!"

"oh?"

"At that time, Xiaonei was just launched, but it was attacked by hackers. At that time, our technical strength was very limited, and we were helpless against hackers. It happened that a secretary of a big man asked me to buy a domain name, and I wanted her to help. As a result People didn't like college students like me at all, so they directly refused."

Zhou Hongyi snorted, and said sarcastically: "It's normal, some people, after they have made a career, they don't know the heights of heaven and earth."

Zhou Buqi was slightly taken aback, feeling that he did not seem to be lying, "Old Zhou, do you know who that person is?"

"Is it convenient to say?" Zhou Hongyi was naturally interested.

Zhou Buqi coughed lightly, and said in a calm tone: "That man, invited me to eat court food in Jude Building today."

"ah?"

Zhou Hongyi was startled, and almost got under the table.

Zhou Buqi was very calm. He took a bite of the diced pork in sauce. The sauce was rich in aroma, crispy on the outside and tender in the inside.

"Xiao...Xiao Zhou, you said last year I..."

Zhou Hongyi lost her composure, as if she couldn't believe it.

Zhou Buqi smiled and waved his hand, "It's all over, it's not worth mentioning. Old Zhou, what do you want me to do this time?"

Last year, he still held a little grudge.

Not anymore.

At that time, Zhou Hongyi was the president of Yahoo China, and she was so busy that it was normal for her not to pay attention to these trivial matters.

Zhou Hongyi was so embarrassed that he couldn't say anything more.

After resigning from Yahoo China, he is now an angel investor, secretly supporting his younger brother and creating Qihoo 360. In terms of identity, he is no higher than Zhou Buqi.

"It's okay, just speak up if you have something to say." Zhou Buqi said with a very magnanimous expression.

"Cough..." Zhou Hongyi calmed down, took a deep breath, "Xiao Zhou, I invested in a company called Qihoo 360, do you know?"

Zhou Buqi shook his head, pretending not to know.

Of course he knew.

Not only know, but also know that they are doing search business now.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have come to this dinner today.

It's a big festival, isn't it delicious to have dinner with your family?

Zhou Hongyi is definitely an ancient god in the domestic Internet circles. In the early 1990s, he started his own business with antivirus software, but it failed.

Later, he joined Founder of Peking University and rose through the ranks.

Within a few years, he wanted to start a business again.

At that time, there was no Chinese search in China, and Chinese people could only use English if they wanted to surf the Internet.

Zhou Hongyi saw this opportunity, rushed in decisively, and realized the ideal of "letting Chinese people use their native language to surf the Internet". The product he created was the famous rogue software 3721, which once occupied 90% of the Chinese search market. share.

Later, when Yahoo wanted to enter the Chinese market, it didn’t want to slow down its deployment. It wanted to buy a search company directly. It chose two targets: Baidu and 3721.

At that time, Baidu was not yet profitable, and 3721 had already made money through the rogue attribute.

Yahoo decisively gave up on Baidu and chose to buy 3721 at a price of 120 million US dollars.

Zhou Hongyi became the president of Yahoo China as a matter of course.

Therefore, when Zhou Hongyi left Yahoo to start a business, she would definitely choose two directions. One is the security field, which is the direction he chose to start a business for the first time in his life. He is also a hacker himself, and has this obsession; the other is his old business, the search business.

In contrast, the search business is safer.

Sure enough, Zhou Hongyi then introduced to him the current business direction of Qihoo 360, which are two emerging concepts on the Internet - aggregated search and community search.

Aggregated search means that there are too many search engines on the market now. Yahoo, Google, Microsoft, Sina, Baidu, Sohu and other companies all have search services. Aggregated search is to aggregate these search engines through a platform, and users can choose their favorite search engines arbitrarily when searching.

Community search is mainly a search engine function organized on the basis of massive community resources for popular forums, blogs and campus SNS websites. Compared with ordinary search engines, community search is characterized by giving priority to community information and recommending personalized content push.

Both of these are new concepts that are short-lived.

There is no prospect of development.

Zhou Buqi is really optimistic about Zhou Hongyi's direct line team, from 3721 to Yahoo's Chinese search engine, it is a team with rich accumulation of search technology...

"Qihoo 360 will launch two products. Aggregation search can cooperate with Xiaonei.com, and community search hopes that friends.com can open ports."

Zhou Hongyi was not polite at all.

Zhou Buqi joked, "It's not a rogue software this time, is it?"

"You can rest assured." Zhou Hongyi straightened his face, "With this energy, you can deal with Yahoo's assistants."

Yahoo Assistant is the 3721 with a facelift.

Zhou Buqi said with a smile: "Don't worry about it. I just got a letter this morning that Yahoo and Microsoft have cooperated to launch a new version of Yahoo Assistant for IE6. It provides functions such as search, IE repair, and cleaning traces. This is a difficult problem. The micro-point security guards have fully released it."

Zhou Hongyi couldn't believe it, "So fast?"

Yes, the old horse's wrist is very powerful. Zhou Buqi sighed with emotion.

Zhou Hongyi remained silent, not knowing what he was thinking.

Zhou Buqi glanced at him, and said hesitantly: "Old Zhou, let me tell you the truth, the two directions of aggregated search and community search you want to engage in, in my opinion, have no prospects for development. In the search business, It is not the right way to be new and different, but we should do a good job in technology and content.”

Zhou Hongyi felt ashamed in his heart.

You are a college student, if you praise you a few words, your tail is really up to the sky? The complexity of the search business is something that you, a college student, can talk about? Do you know what a search chain is?

He thought he was a veteran in the search industry, and he disapproved: "No, these are two good directions."

"What if it fails?"

"Um?"

"If these two directions fail, what will Qihoo 360 do? Will it do normal search business?"

Zhou Hongyi was a little puzzled, looked at him deeply, and then shook his head: "I won't do ordinary search business, this market is already a giant vying for hegemony, there is no chance. If these two directions fail, I won't go back .”

"Aren't you going back to Qihoo 360?"

"Um."

"Where are you going?"

"I'm an angel investor. IDG is already holding a board meeting and will vote to invite me as a partner of IDG. If this venture fails, I will focus on the investment field in the future."

Zhou Buqi asked, "What about the Qihoo 360 team?"

"Huh?" Zhou Hongyi's expression was a little dazed, and then his eyes suddenly widened. Finally, he figured out the kid's intentions, and said in a low voice, "You want to search? Compete with Baidu, Google, and Microsoft for this market? "

Zhou Buqi shook his head, "I don't know, I didn't think about it. However, I think the team you brought out from Yahoo is a group of elite talents with combat effectiveness and cohesiveness. It's a pity to disband."

"This matter can be discussed slowly."

Zhou Hongyi felt a lot more at ease.

When there are common interest demands, there is a basis for negotiation.
