Reinventing the Millennium.

Fang Zhuo hadn't been to the capital for a while, and although he was called to be a representative this time, he felt very cordial when he met the leader.

When the leader invited him to eat in the cafeteria, he went to the cafeteria to eat.

The leader invited him to sit in the office after dinner, and he went to sit.

The leader asked about the work he was doing now. He asked the leader if he had anything to do in the afternoon. The leader said no, so he chatted all afternoon.

From the noon meal to the evening meal, Fang Zhuo still had more to say, but the leader never mentioned the dinner in the cafeteria at night, so he had no choice but to leave.

"Mr. Fang, you are really good at chatting." Secretary Zhao who called to notify Mr. Cheng sent Mrs. Cheng off, and said a little dumbfounded, "The leader is scratching his head."

"I was impromptu, and I just talked about two points." Fang Zhuo smiled, "One is the subversion of the mobile Internet, and the other is the subversion of the Yike YMS ecosystem to the company's development."

There are quite a lot of content on the two topics, and it takes half a day to chat casually.

Secretary Zhao nodded silently: "Well, I don't quite understand this."

But he can see that Fang is always not bored at all, and he is still enjoying it.

This afternoon's work was originally reserved for the communication meeting of the 3Q battle, but it was completed ahead of schedule in the morning, and it became Mr. Fang's Yike work meeting.

When he sent Mr. Fang to the car, he suddenly asked, "Mr. Fang, is the listing process of this YMS software store so complicated?"

Fang Zhuo smiled, Secretary Zhao, you still say you don't understand.

Although it's hard to guess what it means to suddenly make a sound at this time, he sat upright and said everything to others: "The software store is a very important part of the Android system. Only this part has strict censorship. The entire system's ecology to get better."

"Whether it's a developer, our own company's software, or a competitor's software from other businesses, as long as it meets the requirements, it can be put on the shelves."

"These are clearly written one by one. All developers should read and implement them carefully. I will not make temporary changes or deliberately make things difficult. I just strictly implement what we have set."

Secretary Zhao thought about it for a while, and tried to understand: "Is it all agreed in advance?"

"That's right, it's all agreed in advance, it's clear, no one can deceive you." Fang Zhuo was very sure of this.

In fact, these rules and regulations are also very simple to say.

First, users are required to have the right to know, and second, software is required not to abuse permissions.

Take... Let's take this QQ as an example. You used to have a good ABC permission, but you suddenly ask the user's mobile phone to provide the D permission of the address book. Do you want to inform the user?

Users can choose to accept or not after knowing it?
If you have to accept your newly added D permission, you will stop all the original services, so as to threaten users to activate D permission before using it?

This is the requirement of the YMS software store. It has been clarified from the first day of launching YMS, and it is a rule aimed at maintaining the system ecology and user interests.

Even Fang Zhuo felt that this should be regarded as the basic interests of users.

Of course, the software side can think that the rules of the YMS platform are too complicated and the requirements are too strict, so they can choose other platforms. This is a two-way thing.

And, YMS will also communicate with developers who raise objections or questions, and verify basic permissions, additional permissions, abuse or not, etc. There are a series of processes.

Secretary Zhao could hear Mr. Fang's firmness and openness, nodded and said: "That's good, Mr. Fang's mobile phone is very easy to use, and more and more people around us have switched from Nokia to Yike."

He intends to carefully study the relevant requirements of the YMS software store tonight, as a bit of personal interest and... the scope of work that may be involved in the future.

Today's communication between 360 and Penguin will be the end of a past competition. No matter how you think about it, Yike and Penguin will not always be so peaceful.

"Nokia's products are actually good, but times have changed." Fang Zhuo sighed, "I spoke Mandarin with Nokia's new CEO Elo the day before yesterday. This is the third CEO I have communicated with in the past few years. The change is really fast.”

So fast that even Nokia is shaking, it is undoubtedly a giant.

Unlike the previous two CEOs, Nokia under the leadership of Elop must have a greater turn.

Fang Zhuo chatted with Secretary Zhao for a few more words before leaving and getting into the car.

"Boss Fang, should we go back to the hotel?" Secretary Liu Zonghong asked.

"Let's blow some air first. I'll give Pony a call. I've come to the capital, and we met during the day. Let's have a meal and talk together." Fang Zhuo put down the car window and took out his phone.

After a while, he sighed: "I seem to be blocked by Pony, this..."

Liu Zonghong remained silent, as if he should be surprised or not.

Fang Zhuo was bewildered for a few seconds, his buddy actually blocked him, he shook his head and said, "Forget it, if you don't block this time, you will have to block in the future, let's find the old bear to have a barbecue."

After a while, he said in astonishment, "Why isn't Lao Xiong on the phone?"

Liu Zonghong was also taken aback, what did Mr. Fang do to Mr. Xiong?

Fortunately, the second call got through, and it wasn't blocked.

Fang Zhuo calmed down, he couldn't even have friends who had a barbecue.

But, just eat a barbecue.

Xiong Xiaoge came over excitedly. He could hear the secrets of today's meeting, but he didn't expect it to be a meal. The few questions he asked were answered in a neutral manner.

"How many registrations does Yixin have now?" Xiong Xiaoge asked a question that involved many guesses.

Fang Zhuo sighed, and replied, "It's only one or two million."

Xiong Xiaoge nodded inwardly, three to four million is quite outstanding, quite worthy of this public opinion turmoil.

You have to double listen to Mr. Fang's words.

He rolled a bunch of mutton and said with emotion: "Fortunately, this matter is over, the software is compatible, Mr. Zhou is fine, and Yixin has also got a lot of registrations."

Fang Zhuo was also very emotional: "Yeah, no one thought that things would happen like this. Mr. Zhou must be very scared. Hey, if there is a problem, you should think about solving the problem, not the other party."

Xiong Xiaoge and Zhou Hongyi have known each other for a long time. The latter used to be a partner of IDG, and IDG also invested in 360. He was very worried about Mr. Zhou when he heard that there was an emergency at Hang Lung 23.

He was afraid that the penguins would mess around, and he was also afraid that Mr. Fang would take advantage of the situation to mess around.

Fortunately, it ended without any danger.

"Mr. Fang, I respect you." Xiong Xiaoge happily raised his beer mug, "This time Yixin Baima has entered the communication market with a silver gun, and this field has become a third in the world from now on."

Fang Zhuo touched his wine glass with a smile, nodded and said, "Yes, Penguin should not be underestimated, Feixin should not be underestimated, Yixin is very weak, and everyone in the company is very satisfied with being able to become the Kingdom of Shu."

When Yi Xin started, the two seniors in front of him are still very strong, and he still needs to learn more. This gap will take a long time to catch up.

Well, Mr. Wu Yunjun Wu, who will visit China Unicom tomorrow, also said the same.

At 08:30 the next morning, Fang Zhuo saw the joint statement of 360 and Penguin, jointly apologized to the affected users, and said that he would strengthen self-discipline and maintain the healthy development of the industry.

When Fang Zhuo arrived at the office of Wu Yunjun, Vice President of China Unicom, he immediately heard the end of this tortuous competition brought up by the other party after two sentences.

"This result is not bad. Besides the two of them, we, Yike, have also learned lessons from this incident. We must put the interests of users first." Fang Zhuo is very serious.

Wu Yunjun laughed when he heard the grandeur, and said, "Yike took advantage of the opportunity to launch Yixin this time, who wouldn't admire Mr. Fang's timing?"

"It can be regarded as a coincidence." Fang Zhuo said, "We are a little hasty, so we went into battle temporarily."

Wu Yunjun smiled and said, "I still don't understand the matter of Yixin, can Mr. Fang talk to us?"

Fang Zhuo came to China Unicom to reduce the resistance of Yixin from the operator, and there is nothing he can do.

However, he organized his words in his mind, and was interrupted by Wu Yunjun just as he was about to speak.

"Mr. Fang, let's go to the meeting room next door." Wu Yunjun got up and stretched out his right hand to invite the head of Yike to change places.

When Fang Zhuo followed the vice president of China Unicom to the next door, he saw nearly ten people sitting squarely, as if they were ready to fight.

Fang Zhuo laughed and said, "Mr. Wu, why is there such a big battle? What does it mean?"

He only brought a secretary with him when he came to Unicom this time, and it was an informal visit to see Wu Yunjun, because the vice president had a good cooperation with Yike's mobile phone business, and he just wanted to chat first.

Unexpectedly, this side is already waiting.

"Mr. Fang, we don't know this kind of business very well. It just so happens that you are here this time. Everyone also wants Mr. Fang to give advice, so as not to make any mistakes in the work." Wu Yunjun said with a smile.

Fang Zhuo glanced at the conference room, and pondered for a while: "That's fine, Mr. Wu said so, and I really want to communicate with you about this."

Wu Yunjun invited Mr. Fang and his secretary to sit down, and then introduced the executives present.

Yike is a giant, and the timing of choosing Yixin to enter the market this time is very tricky. Although Unicom and Yike have cooperated well, they need to be cautious when it comes to other businesses.

Moreover, as Mr. Fang acted, he had to add another layer of caution.

Wu Yunjun did this half-actively and half-passively, and he couldn't have the final say in China Unicom. Now there is Li Yunmao, an executive in charge of SMS business, in the conference room.

Who made the competition between Yi Ke and Penguin so eye-catching and Mr. Fang has a black halo.

Fang Zhuo sat down, seeing that other people did not speak, he "coughed" first - not to mention, this "cough" suddenly felt like being in the meeting room of Hang Lung 23.

"Yesterday I chatted with the leader at Gongxin for an afternoon, and what happened to be the development of the mobile Internet. I came to China Unicom today, and I am actually very moved."

"From last year's Olympic 3G pilot cities to October this year, the total number of base stations has exceeded 10, and the 10G network has covered 3 cities across the country. China Unicom has developed rapidly, and everyone's work is very good."

"We at Yike Mobile would like to thank you all. Without the cooperation with China Unicom, Yike could not have made such great achievements in the mainland."

Although Fang Zhuo was impromptu, he came here as soon as he opened his mouth. He first mentioned the leadership, then talked about the work of China Unicom, and expressed his thanks for Yike's achievements.

After these words, the tension in the conference room dissipated a lot.

"What did I talk about with the leader yesterday? In fact, the core is very simple, that is, the mobile Internet is a new era, a subversion of the past computer, and many new opportunities will surely emerge."

"Compared with PCs, the threshold of mobile phones is getting lower and lower, and its built-in cameras, sensors, and microphones have become more and more users' eyes, ears, nose, and tongues in the online world with more and more software applications. "

"What is a smartphone like? It's like an external organ of a person."

"In the past, Internet companies engaged in projects that changed things on the computer side and then put them on the mobile phone, but like the Yixin we launched this time, it is completely developed based on the logic of the mobile phone, and it is the mobile Internet's own thing."

"This is a new project logic, just like the subversion of the Internet by the mobile Internet, and the Yixin product will inevitably subvert the fields it involves."

Fang Zhuo habitually tapped on the table with his knuckles, reminding the executives of China Unicom: "This is the necessity of the times."

Although he is a meeting fan, the head of Yike is not slow to speak, and his words are very contagious.

After a few seconds, Li Yunmao, who was in charge of the text message business, saw that no one else was talking, and smiled: "Mr. Fang, according to this, I have to hurry up and prepare my resume. The inevitable of the times? Then I, who is engaged in text messages, will be eliminated."

"If Mr. Li is willing, our Yixin project really lacks a leader. We don't need a resume. I will meet you one-on-one in Mr. Wu's office later." Fang Zhuo said with a smile.

Li Yunmao was not tempted. He is a person who is more vigilant about Yixin in China Unicom. He has made an analysis report on Yixin before and believes that the development of this will indeed damage the revenue of the SMS business.

"Mr. Fang, you have set Yixin's tone so high by the way. If this is the case, why don't we make such software ourselves at China Unicom?"

Fang Zhuo glanced at the different expressions of different people, and smiled at Li Yunmao: "I especially welcome this kind of competition. NetEase has launched their product MSG. If nothing unexpected, Penguin is also fast. China Mobile also has Fetion. The market is Out of the competition, I am very happy to see China Unicom also take the opportunity."

"So, Mr. Li doesn't need to prepare a resume, and directly starts to make a competing product. I believe it also has great development prospects."

Li Yunmao let out a "huh", but he didn't think it was a good idea. None of these companies sounded like a good competition. He just wanted to maintain the current situation. The SMS business has a steady stream of revenue.

"Mr. Fang's 'external organs' statement just now is interesting." Feng Jishan, another executive, interjected, "But this subversion is not subversion, and the Internet's subversion of traditional enterprises still exists."

"It doesn't exist in isolation, but interacts with each other. In fact, we can know the trend of this wave by listing the statistical data. According to the current statistics, the average time for each person to use the computer is about 3 hours, but what about the mobile phone?" Fang Zhuo said. And Tan, "Small and light, it is basically carried with you at any time. A person leaves from the computer, but he can use his mobile phone at any time. How different is the scene of this usage?"

"From 2G to 3G, it is destined to undergo great changes. Yixin is only one part of it. Without Yixin, there will be hard to believe. This market is here."

"If China Unicom doesn't do it, China Telecom may be on it. If China Telecom is not on it, China Mobile may change Fetion and then it will be on it."

"How big is a QQ-centric penguin now?"

"This communication product has an extremely high upper limit."

Fang Zhuo talked a lot, picked up the teacup, and took two sips of water.

"Your business depends on our operator's network, which in turn will damage our business interests." Li Yunmao pointed out this point, and said, "Today you think SMS is outdated, and tomorrow Yixin will also do voice , come to impact our call business again?"

Fang Zhuo didn't answer immediately.

Li Yunmao suddenly seemed to have smelled it, and immediately asked: "Mr. Fang, may I ask, is Yixin still planning to make a voice call?"

His question made Qin Ximing, another vice president related to the call business, also cast his eyes on Mr. Fang. The revenue in this area is more important than text messages.

Fang Zhuo gave the answer, and said in surprise: "Mr. Li, I didn't think of this at first, but you really reminded me that Yi Xin originally just wanted to communicate with Penguin. This... I have to think about it carefully." .”

Wu Yunjun said cheerfully: "Mr. Fang, have you really never thought about it? Then we will send Mr. Li to Yixin."

Fang Zhuo shook his head: "After all, time is short. We, Yike, are just a mobile phone company. This time, we are trying to set foot in a new business. The battle between public opinion and everyone today is beyond my expectation. However, since Mr. Li proposed Now, I must admit, it's a good direction."

Li Yunmao had a cold face, not quite believing this statement.

"Just like Mr. Li reminded me, in fact, the appearance of Yixin must also remind other entrepreneurs to pay attention to the new needs of users in the 3G era. Yixin just started it. Today I understand what everyone means. Okay, after I go back Tell them not to do it, but can China Unicom stop Penguin from doing it? Penguin has so much traffic, after realizing this challenge, can it let it go as soon as it says it will?” Fang Zhuo raised a question.

On this occasion, Wu Yunjun's status is not good enough to warn Penguin of the red line, but other people don't have so many concerns.

Vice President Qin Ximing said bluntly: "We have already talked with Penguin, and we cannot accept its traffic."

"Does Pony accept your offer or not?" Fang Zhuo smiled, "If he accepts, I can consider it."

Qin Ximing said solemnly: "If Mr. Fang accepts it, Mr. Ma can accept it too."

"I don't have that much traffic, why should I accept it?" Fang Zhuo asked, "You accepted him, and we can have another meeting like today."

Qin Ximing still wanted to talk, but suddenly realized that this was already a strange circle, he was silent for a few seconds, and showed his attitude: "For Yixin, my bottom line is that you can't do voice call business."

Li Yunmao hurriedly said: "Wait..."

Why did it suddenly become a voice call business?The bottom line on my side is the SMS service.

"Mr. Qin, the bottom line is always worthless if you take it out. You draw the line for Penguin and Yi Ke, this..." Fang Zhuo shook his head, "Let's talk with the facts."

Qin Ximing gave a compromise suggestion: "Mr. Fang, in this way, since you insist on doing newsletters, that's fine too, but you, Yixin, can't do it for free, and you can set up a package like a monthly subscription. Isn't that okay? "

"Boss Qin, you will come up with ideas, so come and meet me some other day." Fang Zhuo had no choice but to get up and said, "Let's speak with facts."

Wu Yunjun asked at this time: "Mr. Fang, how many users do you have as Yixin?"

Fang Zhuo pondered, fearing that he might scare Liantong, but also afraid that he would not be frightened.

He said: "Let's go, Mr. Wu, that's all for today, I'll go back first."

Wu Yunjun heard the meaning, got up and sent Mr. Fang out of the conference room.

After a while, he re-entered with a strange expression on his face.

No one else in the meeting room has left yet.

Wu Yunjun sat down, thought left and right, and said, "Why don't we discuss this wave."

Li Yunmao said in a deep voice: "Mr. Wu, how many users does Yixin have now?"

"A lot." Wu Yunjun exhaled, "It's a lot. I'll talk to Mr. Chang later."

He wanted to talk to the master about this, and it always felt like a huge shock.

Otherwise, let China Unicom try to get some shares?

Wu Yunjun's expression was uncertain, and the others looked at each other in blank dismay. How much is this "not much"?

……

Penguin City, Penguin Headquarters.

After the meeting in the capital, Ma Huateng and Xu Chenye flew back non-stop. The first thing they did was to care about QQ and the development progress of new products.

QQ needs to load the address book of acquaintances, and directly use its own traffic to divide Yixin's momentum.

The new product is positioned against the benchmark Yixin, and competes hand-to-hand with the opponent in this field.

The progress of the former is relatively fast, and it is expected to be launched by the end of the month, while the latter is a little slower, and it will not be until late November at the earliest.

However, despite the success of QQ, some doubts are inevitable when the general manager holds a meeting.

Since its launch at the end of September, the features of Yixin's software are really distinctive...it's too simple.

In particular, everyone holds their own QQ in their hands, and then uses competitors' products, which is completely different in comparison.

"You say, is Yixin too pursuing simplicity?" Xu Chenye wondered, "Is it really convenient without even a group? The premise of its functionality is that both parties must register. After the tide of public opinion recedes, can you Form the most basic scale threshold?"

Yixin is different from the popular software styles today.

Xu Chenye is used to the trend in the industry, and when he uses Yixin again, he feels bald and awkward.

However, before other people could express their opinions, several mobile phones had new news.

They lowered their heads at the same time, and raised their heads at the same time. When their eyes crossed, they knew that everyone had received the same news.

Nokia's Symbian platform accidentally announced the download volume of Yixin.

9月30日-10月14日，两周时间，易信下载量突破260万。

It seemed that Nokia also participated in the general office meeting and gave Xu Chenye a reply directly. It seemed that there was no need to worry about Yixin.

"This data..." Ren Yuxi looked at the phone with some hesitation.

"It shouldn't be a problem. The YMS software store has been changed to not display Yixin downloads. This Nokia... just released its data." Liu Chiping guessed.

Although I don't know exactly how Yi Ke hooked up with Nokia this time, these two competitors can't be so heart-to-heart.

However, in this way, in just two weeks, a single Symbian has 260 million downloads. How many downloads does Yixin have in Yike and YMS ecological manufacturers?
This data can be tried to estimate. Meizu, Hanwang, and Kesheng in the YMS ecosystem have launched mobile phones this year. The three of them are positioned as entry-level Android phones, and their combined sales volume is about 230 million units.

And now Yike, the king of Android phones, has combined its data and announced that from the pilot operation last year to October now, the domestic sales of Mars 10, 1, 2 and Selfy are around 3 million units.

This is the number of users that Yike's Yixin can directly reach by using the system hardware, about 900 million.

As for how many of these 900 million miles have received pushes, downloaded and registered, only Yike knows the exact number.

However, based on the popularity of public opinion, Yixin may have 500 million registrations today.

Considering that users who are willing to try and use the Android system are usually more active nowadays, Yixin is very dynamic on this basis.

Someone said: "If we are bolder and imagine Yike's Android system to be more active, Yixin's user level may have reached 600 million."

He was half-joking, but there was no one to refute in the meeting room of the general office, and the atmosphere became a little stiff and uneasy.

To what extent can the public opinion driven by an unconventional competition performed on the computers of hundreds of millions of users be stimulated by the launch of Yixin?
President Liu Chiping is very hopeful at this moment, when he pressed the veto button to attack the Internet security field.

According to Yixin's development momentum...the communication market is likely to be gouged out a large part.

"So, this is Yi Ke, no matter how much you value it, you can't take it too seriously."

Seeing that Pony was silent, Liu Chiping announced the launch time of the new version of QQ: "On October 10, our QQ will be updated on various platforms, everyone be prepared."

Everyone in the conference room was refreshed, and finally came, cleared the decline, and revived the stock price, on the 30th.
