Top of the big era

On Zhou Buqi's desk, there are several books, including management psychology, corporate mergers and acquisitions and restructuring, investment studies, project management, corporate diagnosis and consulting...

Each category of questions is a vast array of university questions.

However, these books are not even an introduction. They are just a brief introduction, and they are textbooks for juniors in the Business Administration Department of Beijing University of Science and Technology.

At the end of this semester, he will go back to school to take the final exam.

These books are all superficial and conceptual. Clumsy rhetoric and awkward logic are the traditional experience methods of rigid dogma.

Zhou Buqi asked random people in the company, and his explanations were more thorough than those in books.

He scribbled and drew on his desk, in order to perfect the development outline and basic theory for Ziweixing.

If you want to be a great company, you must innovate, play tricks that no one else has played, and design your own game rules instead of copying the experience from books.

The DNA double helix: collaborative data, social intelligence.

Theory: The law of universal gravitation.

Mode: infinite game.

Purpose: To realize the social von Neumann conception and achieve greater social value.

"Should the focus be on change or the same? If you change, you will no longer focus on it. If you don't stay the same, you are waiting for death. It's an insoluble paradox!"

Zhou Buqi put down the pen in his hand and stretched.

For traditional companies like Coca-Cola and Laoganma, it is best to keep making money without changing the formula forever. But it is not good for technology companies. It must be constantly innovating and changing.

It seems that for technology companies, focus itself is not a phenomenon that should exist, and diversity is the only solution.

Build an ecology with multiple thinking.

Moreover, it cannot be a closed ecosystem.

This layout is small again.

To pursue an infinite ecosystem without boundaries.

Zhou Buqi's brain was thinking rapidly.

At this moment, Ning Yaxian walked over quietly, bent down, and said softly, "Boss, are you bothering me?"

"Huh?" Zhou Buqi interrupted his train of thought and shook his head, "What's the matter?"

"Boss Li from Baidu is looking for you."

"Telephone?"

"Yes, it's online."

"turn around!"

After a while, Zhou Buqi picked up the red telephone on the desk, and Li Yanhong's laughing voice rang from the other end of the phone: "Xiao Zhou, are you busy?"

"It's okay, hehe, Boss Li is a busy person, he didn't attend several parties in a row, call me when you have time?"

Zhou Buqi said half-jokingly.

Li Yanhong is also a member of the Taishan Society.

"I want to quit."

"What?"

Zhou Buqi was taken aback.

Li Yanhong sighed: "In Taishan Club...Of course, this is my personal problem. I'm not good at socializing. I'm not used to such occasions at the dinner table. It's strange. If I have half of your ability to make things happen, Definitely not going back."

Zhou Buqi held back and said, "Isn't it? Lao Li, it's easy for you to quit, but it's hard to join. Is it because of the Entrepreneur Club?"

It stands to reason that Li Yanhong, as the number one person on the Internet in China today, is more than enough for him to be the vice chairman of the Entrepreneur Club.

The Internet is also an important industry, and there must always be a leader.

Unexpectedly, Taishan would not push him hard.

The top one is the grassroots that he has always looked down upon - Ali's horse boss, which is a bit unbalanced. Obviously, several bosses in the Taishan Club prefer the slippery Boss Ma to the polite and slightly rigid Boss Li.

Of course Li Yanhong didn't admit it, it seemed that he was narrow-minded, he just said that he was too busy and didn't want to waste everyone's time.

Zhou Buqi frowned and said: "If you are too busy, please ask for leave. Last time I asked for leave too. Isn't it just a fine of 200,000 yuan? Lao Li, if you are tight, I will pay your fine for you in the future. Really, Listen to me, don't back down."

Retired, Baidu will have an accident in the future, and no one will help.

When Lenovo had an accident, celebrities in the business circles across the country came forward one after another to express their support for Lenovo, saying that this was a misunderstanding of the public. But Baidu's accident is different, it is the target of public criticism, and I wish everyone would jump out and spit.

Li Yanhong smiled and said: "I can understand your kindness, but I have already told Mr. Liu, Mr. Duan, and Mr. Lu. I think you can talk about it at the next meeting. It's okay. If you quit, you will quit." Yes, Baidu has achieved the scale it is today, and it is not afraid of anyone who will be greedy for black hands."

Zhou Buqi sighed, "You're confused!"

Li Yanhong smiled and said: "Okay, let's not talk about this. What I want to talk to you about is another matter. When will your Weidian search go online?"

"January next year."

"It's so fast."

"It's Sogou changing its face and changing its skin. The technology is backward and everything is missing. It is incomparable with your big website."

"You are being modest."

Zhou Buqi said: "It's really not modest. I am a shareholder of Baidu. I know how powerful Baidu's technology is and how deep its moat is."

Li Yanhong was very satisfied with his attitude, and secretly felt that this Xiao Zhou really knew how to behave.

No wonder he was able to thrive in an old-fashioned, traditional organization like Taishanhui, which emphasized traditional connections.

"Well, what I'm talking about is about the shares. When you have time, let's talk about it?"

"Maybe next month, I'm a little busy recently."

"Then the 10th of next month?"

"It's a deal."

Zhou Buqi was very forthright, and readily agreed.

At the beginning of this year, he helped Baidu, spending 267 million to buy the 650,000 shares of Baidu held by Google.

At the time, Google and Baidu were competitors.

With so many stocks held by competitors, it is like a ticking time bomb, which is very dangerous. In particular, Google can use its status as an important shareholder and director to obtain some non-public internal data of Baidu.

Isn't that ridiculous?

How can you compete if your opponents have seen all your hole cards?

So Li Yanhong was very anxious at the time, and wanted to transfer out the shares in Google Singer as soon as possible, and then Ziweixing took over the offer.

I planned to wait until Baidu's stock price took off next year before selling it, and make a lot of money.

But now Ziweixing has to search.

Spending 80 million to buy Sogou, the limelight was the same for a while, and shocked the domestic Internet circle. It's like a blockbuster, no less than the effect of Google's sky-high acquisition of YouTube.

As a result, Ziweixing and Baidu have also become competitors.

This stock has become a thorny issue again.

If Zhou Buqi insisted on not selling it, Li Yanhong would have nothing to do with him, it would be impossible to force him to sell it.

Moreover, Zhou Buqi is not a director of Baidu, but an important shareholder. As long as Li Yanhong strengthens internal management and defends everywhere, he can effectively prevent him from obtaining some non-public data of Baidu.

But it's a ticking time bomb after all.

There is only a thousand days to be a thief, but there is no reason to guard against a thief for a thousand days.

The best way is to find a new receiver, take over the stock, and completely sever the relationship between Ziweixing and Baidu in terms of equity.

Let the competition become more fair.

Zhou Buqi smiled wryly, "I still want to hold it for a long time, and then sell it to make a lot of money!"

Seeing that he did not insist, Li Yanhong was very happy in her heart, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, this change of hands... I will definitely raise a few more points on the closing price."

"How many hours?"

Zhou Buqi curled his lips, not looking at it at all.

If it is sold again at this time next year, it can increase by at least 300 points!

However, it is difficult to refuse.

This offends people to death.

Everyone used to be a member of the Taishan Club, and they had a lot of contacts, and they were considered friends. Moreover, Boss Li is different from Boss Ma's face-to-face and back-seat style. He is a technician, and he is a more down-to-earth person.

We can compete in business and get along in personal relationships.

Li Yanhong was not satisfied with his tone, so she smiled and said, "Xiao Zhou, you made a lot of money from this deal! When you bought it, the stock price was only $62. Google was in a hurry to sell and gave you a huge discount. Now Baidu stock is $95, and I will give you a few points of premium... hold it for less than a year, maybe it will double!"

Zhou Buqi said: "You have to give me some time for this matter. I will communicate with the executives. I can't make a decision on such a large transaction by myself. On the 10th of next month, let's discuss it in detail. ,How about it?"

Li Yanhong said happily: "No problem!"

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Buqi called He Yang and Wang Haoyang over and talked about it.

He Yang understood it as soon as he heard it, and said with a smile: "Mr. Li is very confident that he can find an institution to take over the order, and he also vowed that he will pay a premium on the closing price. There is only one reason for this, and that is that Baidu's revenue has increased significantly recently. 20% is considered low. Only such a good performance report can boost market confidence."

Wang Haoyang said: "Sell! It must be sold! Our search strategy is so complicated and we have arranged so many things. Even if the cash from selling YouTube returns, our finances are still tight. Thinking about paying 80 million to Sohu in a few months U.S. dollars, and the establishment of a mobile phone electronics company...my head is so big."

Zhou Buqi said angrily: "Okay, stop yelling at me, every time it's imminent, don't I have to take action?"

Wang Haoyang didn't take it seriously. He still didn't know that the young boss had thought hard enough to fire him, so he said with a sad face: "The finance department is short of people now, and I have to participate in the audit work in person. No matter how tight the funds are, I will All the hair fell out."

Zhou Buqi saw that his mental state had indeed deteriorated a lot compared to the first time, and his hairline had moved up a lot, so he sighed: "Then sell it?"

Wang Haoyang was very firm: "Sell!"

He Yang also nodded, "Let's sell it. The financial aspect is really tight. With cash in hand, you can do everything steadily, so as not to embezzle project funds even when paying wages. People who are patchwork are panic."

Zhou Buqi said: "Then let's sell it."

He Yang smiled and said: "But let's not be too anxious, let's wait and see for a while. I guess Baidu's stock will rise sharply this time around, so let's also get a high price."

"OK!"

Zhou Buqi made a decision, and then said: "By the way, at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning, the decision-making committee will hold a meeting. In addition, Xu Liangjie, Shi Jinglin and Wang Haiyang will also participate, and the theoretical thinking and development outline of Ziweixing will be finalized. Instill our corporate philosophy in the employees at the ideological level. Dreams are still necessary, and I believe they can be realized!"
