1991 Starting from the core

(If you can’t follow the plot, you can re-download the previous chapter and read it.)

Sliding the screen, Su Yuanshan casually glanced at the comments. When he found that there were a lot of extreme remarks in the comments, he shook his head and posted a reply: "There is no conflict between poverty alleviation and supporting technological development" - there was no one there anyway. know him.

Seeing Wang Chuanfu looking at him expectantly, he handed the phone to Wang Chuanfu. The latter was stunned after reading it quickly: "It seems to have some meaning?"

"Well, it's possible. After all, the country's current development of new energy will destroy the long-term jobs of many people." Su Yuanshan pointed to the mobile phone: "Who is this... Nanpo Idle Man, obviously the information he received is incomplete, and he has no idea at all. , the plan for comprehensive poverty alleviation and the construction of new rural areas has been passed, and the data is also wrong - 30 million people have no food to eat, and this is the data for the year of the monkey and the month of the horse."

"It means this person was used as a gun."

"Haha, ignore him. The next five-year plan will be a five-year period in which domestic new energy policies and technologies are fully consistent. In terms of new energy vehicles, no one can compete with us for the time being, but in terms of power batteries, it is obviously impossible for the country to put eggs Put it alone in the cable core - don't forget, Sony has been eating meat with us."

Speaking of Sony, both laughed.

While laughing, Wang Chuanfu said with emotion: "Sony really... moved all its lithium battery departments directly to the special zone, for fear that we would accidentally kick them."

"The Japanese people do have a stronger sense of worry, but Kutaragi Ken is obviously overly worried... Their cooperation with us will obviously be used by the two countries as an example of economic and technological integration. How can we abandon them."

After the two chatted for another half an hour, Wang Chuanfu stood up and left.

Su Yuanshan walked him to the door, turned around and nodded to Wen Xiaoqian, gesturing for her to enter the office.

"Contact Pony and ask him to come to the Science and Technology Park if he is free."

…

At ten o'clock the next morning, Pony appeared in Su Yuanshan's office on time.

Arriving at this time, either Pony took the earliest flight, or he arrived last night.

"Mr. Shan."

Rao is an IT giant that has successively defeated Icq, MSN Messenger, AOL Instant Messenge, OICQ, Yichao and other domestic and foreign instant messaging software to become the most powerful instant messaging software in the world, but Pony was still summoned by Su Yuanshan with just one phone call. come over.

And he was not dissatisfied at all, and was even a little excited and nervous.

After all, he was from Yuanxin, and he was one of the two people who was personally selected by Su Yuanshan to go to the Internet Center to set up a fight.

Over the years, although EM and Yuanxin have been completely separated from their business, the only name now is the relationship between the major shareholders and the company. But in fact...their original three Internet giants never considered anyone an outsider.

——Otherwise, when he encounters a political request that he cannot decide, the first thing he thinks of is Su Yuanshan.

"Brother Pony, sit down." Su Yuanshan pointed to the sofa with a smile: "What kind of tea do you want to drink? I have scented tea and green tea here."

"How about a cup of coffee?"

"That's okay. There's sugar in the jar under the coffee table. You can add it yourself."

After bringing Pony a cup of coffee, Su Yuanshan poured himself a cup, and then sat down opposite Pony with a smile.

To this day, Yuanxin is still the largest shareholder of EM - when EM has not paid dividends for a long time, Yuanxin has never sold its shares, and in order to cooperate with EM's financing, it has no "complaints" accepted the dilution of their shares.

Yuanxin, a technology company known for its excellent vision, holds a long-term stake in an Internet company, which in itself is a very guiding stance and platform.

In the past few years, EM has also relied on its user base advantage to actively explore new areas, launching the em.com portal to compete with newbooks, the Ezone user space to compete with ebooks, etc., plus the previous leisure activities. Gaming platforms and video chat websites have made their market value surge in the new wave of Internet recovery.

Today, EM, together with newbook and eso, are known as NEE, and they are the three undisputed giants in the Internet field.

"Have you thought about the future development direction of EM?" Su Yuanshan asked directly without talking nonsense.

"I've been thinking about it." When Pony heard Su Yuanshan's straight-to-the-point talk, he immediately put down his coffee and said seriously: "The main idea is to carry out platform development, and then rely on the advantages of the platform to fully intervene in the pan-entertainment and life fields."

Su Yuanshan nodded: "For example? Playing games?"

Pony smiled sheepishly: "The game industry is indeed a big business. If you see an opportunity and don't do it, you would be a bit...stupid."

"Well, indeed. But..."

Su Yuanshan pursed his lips as he spoke and said softly: "Have you ever thought that maybe one day, the platform will disappear."

Pony was immediately startled and tasted Su Yuanshan's words carefully.

"I remember that EM first had a text chat room, and it was quite large and divided into sections in different languages ​​- you even released typical news about transnational love, right?" Su Yuanshan asked with a smile.

Pony coughed and said, "Yes."

"But now? Are there not many people in the chat room?"

"……Um."

"Chat rooms are actually a platform that meets public communication needs - similar to this are forums."

"But you may have received the news that the glory of traditional tribal forums has passed, and we will completely withdraw from the capital field of traditional forums - whoever is still in it now is playing with fire."

Pony opened his mouth, then closed it tightly.

He knew that this was Su Yuanshan telling him as an example that the platform might collapse.

"Two years ago, Ye Zi and I discussed what people's needs are for the Internet. Apart from the nature of the tool, we agreed that information is the most original need."

"Whether it is receiving information or outputting information. The most intuitive difference between Internet products for ordinary users is the way information is presented."

"And this is currently divided into audio and video, pictures, and text - as you can see, these three methods correspond to the three most popular Internet products on the Internet, ivideo, ebook, and Tieba."

"And I can also tell you that these three products... are actually far from meeting all people's needs. In other words, based on these three methods, products that are closer to users can be derived, and new products can be developed. needs.”

…

Hearing what Su Yuanshan said, Pony, no matter how stupid he was, knew that Su Yuanshan was giving him guidance, hoping that EM would jump out of the portal and instant messaging and develop into these three major fields - he had indeed considered it, and even planned to make a video website.

But for a long time, he has been deeply influenced by the spirit of Yuanxin. He believes that if you can't make a unique difference, then it is better not to do it - even if you do it, you will still have to face competition with products that have already seized the opportunity.

However, similar products cannot be differentiated, so they can only compete by burning money.

But these products... listen, ebook, Tieba, ivideo, are either owned by Yuanxin or eso - everyone knows that the boss of eso is Mr. Shan's wife, and she is also the one that everyone "watched and grew up with" "The little junior sister.

Who dares to go... Even if we burn money in a fair competition, we can't burn it.

Capital is very realistic, okay... What's wrong with people buying eso stocks and waiting for them to appreciate in value? You have to seek wealth and wealth insurance to support you in challenging the world's largest Internet company by market capitalization?

"Let's make a new product that is different from ebooks."

As Su Yuanshan said, he grabbed a piece of draft paper, took out his pen and started drawing directly.

"It mainly publishes short text content, supplemented by pictures, and then forms an information flow with the content posted by each other's followers, allowing people to gain social recognition. It looks similar to ebook and your ezone, but in fact, Its focus is on sharing. You can think of it as a one-stop and spread-friendly version of bolg.”

Su Yuanshan quickly drew the appearance of Twitter on the paper and wrote down the requirements at the same time.

“When developing products, the mobile and PC terminals are launched at the same time, and then we strive to attract celebrities to join.”

…

After taking the paper and looking at it for ten seconds, Pony suppressed his excitement and looked up at Su Yuanshan. The latter smiled slightly and said, "If you don't do it, I'll find someone else."

"...I never said I wouldn't do it!" Pony felt like he was putting away the manuscript. Although he had already left the technical frontline, he had not forgotten the code and his brain was still working well: "It's just...will this be related to ebook?" …”

"No, this is a differentiated product."

"Okay! Right now, I'll start the project when I get back - by the way, what's it called?"

"Whatever, how about calling it Micro-blog?"

"Microblog?"

"Weibo for short."

After seeing off the rushing pony, Su Yuanshan took a long breath and smiled mockingly to himself.

——He doesn’t care about some of the rhythms on ebook, which doesn’t mean he really doesn’t care. However, ebook is a Silicon Valley company. Even if it can influence its founder and current boss, it is always inconvenient.

Then the only choice is to launch another voice platform.

In the next few days, whether it was ebook, Tieba, or traditional forums such as Tianya, Maopu, etc., there was inexplicably a wave of "big news" targeting the pure electric cars released by Yuanxin this year, as well as autonomous driving. discuss".

There are even cliches that lead to the concessions made by the country in the field of auto parts when signing the free trade area half a year ago.

Finally, a vague spear pointed directly at Yuan Xin.

…

National Day.

"They don't even take a break during the National Day, these people."

Su Yuanshan lay on the sofa and took out his iPad to read the news during this rare vacation time. But I found that the heat has not gone down yet...

This made him really dumbfounded.

"The big tree attracts the wind." Academician Su Xinghe was also sitting on the sofa, surfing the Internet with the same tablet as Su Yuanshan. It's just that he only surfs the Internet to read news: "If you have the time to think about this, why not spend more time with your son."

It was also thanks to the fact that the two little guys were taken away by their grandparents, otherwise Su Yuanshan would not have time to surf the Internet.

"Well, the big tree attracts the wind, but unfortunately it attracts the wrong wind."

Su Yuanshan checked the ebook data - a few days ago, he secretly paid attention to the idler on the south slope. I found that this person really has the temperament of "caring about the country and the people". He insists on writing a blog post every day, and his perseverance is extraordinary.

Then, he swiped and a new title appeared.

——"Beware of Yuan Xin's X Valve Circle"

Su Yuanshan was stunned.

He rubbed his eyes several times before confirming that he had read it correctly. The title indeed said that the remote core is the X valve ring.

An inexplicable emotion suddenly rose up, making him want to laugh uncontrollably.

I have to say that the blog post’s perspective is very novel.

It did not deny Yuanxin, but directly recognized Yuanxin's technological progress and efforts - it even mentioned Yuanxin's original nickname "Little Chinese Academy of Sciences", but when it came to the relationship between Yuanxin and Dianxin , the direction is a bit off.

"In the eyes of ordinary people, the relationship between Yuanxin and Electronic Science and Technology is a model of teaching and research. But what is deeper is that a technology giant and universities are becoming more and more closely tied together, moving towards a dual monopoly of academics and technology."

"Here is a set of the number of academicians who have been co-opted in the Electronic Science and Technology Science and Technology Department in the past ten years. We can see that within ten years, five academicians have been co-opted. Starting from the current president of the Electronic Science and Technology Science and Technology Department, by the beginning of this year, eight academicians have been born in the Science and Technology Science and Technology. The best among domestic universities. And these academicians are either chief scientists of Yuanxin, founders, or professors who have received scientific research funds from Yuanxin. Without exception."

"Even the national-level physics laboratory led by Dianke was directly transformed from Yuanxin's physics laboratory."

"It is a good thing that enterprises and universities are closely connected, but if the connection becomes inseparable between enterprises and universities, it is probably not a good thing. Looking around the world, there is no enterprise and university that is as inseparable as Dianke and Yuanxin. Even if Even if it’s a school-run factory, it’s not worth it.”

"The most intuitive result of this is that a large number of senior executives from Yuanxin occupy professorships in the electrical engineering department, but they never attend classes. Graduates from the electrical engineering department can enter Yuanxin as soon as they leave school."

"It is conceivable that when Yuanxin's tentacles touch every field, whether it is academia, the corporate world, or higher-ups, this stitching freak will be within his sphere of influence."

…

Su Yuanshan was still in the mood to see a joke at first, but as he watched, his brows furrowed.

Especially the sentence "stitching freak" directly made him angry.

"What's wrong?" Academician Su Xinghe saw that his son's expression was wrong and came over curiously.

Su Yuanshan was slightly startled, took a few deep breaths, thought about it, and handed the tablet to his father.

"Someone is slandering us."

"Oh?" Su Xinghe took the tablet and looked at it seriously.

Except for the slight surprise at the beginning, Su Xinghe's expression remained calm throughout.

Five minutes later, he handed the tablet to his son with a smile on his lips.

"What did I just say? A big tree attracts the wind."

"...Dad, this is just unfounded, okay? It's just a fabricated target, and then I'll hit it for myself."

"Yeah. But you have to admit that Yuanxin's influence is very big - big enough to make people stand up and use it as a target."

Su Xinghe looked at his son, smiled and said, "Boy, stay awake."
