Global monopoly of technology

Chapter 339 [Full Bloom]

At the end of the second quarter of 2009, the cloud computing service of Bluestar Technology Group still dominates with a market share of more than 70%. Thanks to the launch of new business online translation and its success, Bluestar Technology Group’s cloud computing services in a broad sense Service revenue reached a huge US$7.7 billion in the second quarter of this year alone, surpassing the total revenue of cloud services for the whole year of last year.

For this financial report, Luo Sheng focused on cloud service-related content, and on the social network, he took a rough look.

Entering 2009, the number of global users of the domestic version of BlueSpace exceeded 400 million. The users mainly came from the mainland and neighboring countries in East Asia, as well as overseas students; the number of global users of the international version of BlueSpace reached 558 million;

Reddit's global users exceeded 500 million;

The number of users of Bluestar Music exceeded 300 million, and the cumulative number of users of the international version of MusicSpace reached 257 million;

Yunge Search has a market share of 35% in the domestic search engine market, second only to whiteness. The search engine war is about to enter a fierce battle. In the end, who can break the siege is also confusing;

The cumulative global user volume of Weibo has exceeded 300 million, and the global user volume of the international version of MicroBlog has accumulated 339 million;

The number of global users of Bluestar Video reached 350 million, and the number of global users of the international version of BluestarVideo exceeded 500 million;

The cross-platform chat application WhatAPP has 13.85 million users worldwide.

All of its business sectors, except for WhatAPP, which was launched recently, have more than 300 million users across the board. No matter from which point of view, Bluestar Technology Group has such a powerful "family bucket". The lineup is the undisputed super social hegemon in the world today.

Any product is a unicorn level.

Luo Sheng put down the materials and said with a smile: "If there is no problem with the audit, let's release it to the outside world. Our stock should rise faster. Microsoft is already catching up with us."

Zhang Bowen couldn't help but smiled and nodded. After the two sides talked for a while, Lao Zhang left the CEO office.

Luo Sheng stayed here for more than ten minutes, and then left the Bluestar Technology headquarters to go to the Blue Coast Lab to check the progress of the third-generation smartphone.

Entering the third quarter of 2009, Luo Sheng's work has undoubtedly been further focused on the Cote d'Azur company. The third generation of smart phones will be launched at the autumn conference, which is already at hand.

The company has not launched a new generation of products for almost two years.

The current situation is that major mobile phone manufacturers have established one after another, including Samsung and other overseas technology companies have also entered the field of smart phones and launched products one after another, the market is only the Azure Coast's Azure series of smart phones are being broken, especially In Huaqiangbei, various counterfeit smartphones have sprung up like mushrooms.

This industry will soon become a red sea. With so many brands, only one hand can survive in the end.

Luo Sheng naturally wants to keep the Blue Coast leading all players in the industry.

...

The following day, after obtaining Luo Sheng's approval, the second quarter report of Bluestar Technology Group was officially released.

The foreign news agency reported for the first time that the transcript of US$12.77 billion in the second quarter flashed the industry, which was 2 percentage points higher than the estimates of Wall Street analysts.

Bluestar Technology delivered an unexpected report card for the market in the second quarterly report, and created the company's history. For the first time in a single quarter, revenue exceeded the tens of billions of dollars.

The words "super giant" deserve it.

The second quarter report disclosed that cloud computing services have skyrocketed, reaching 7.725 billion U.S. dollars. Thanks to the instant translation of the new business that went online, it generated 4.07 billion U.S. dollars in revenue this quarter. The most important thing is that the revenue here is for Bluestar Technology. Internet technology giants have to pay a "translation tax" worth US$23.47 million each year, which is equivalent to lying in the rhythm of counting money.

Wall Street analysts are still reliable. The only error lies in the sales of the education version. Sales in the Greater China market far exceeded analyst expectations.

The performance of other business units of the Bluestar Technology Group and the traditional social network sector are in line with analyst expectations.

But the most optimistic thing is that the business sector of Bluestar Technology is showing a trend of innovative diversification and balance. The broad cloud computing service sector leads the performance, but in fact, 30% of it is advertising, followed by social networks. The performance of the business unit is still the absolute proportion of advertising revenue, and virtual gifts are all side dishes.

Another highlight of the performance is the game division. Bluestar Technology does not make games by itself, and the e-sports business group is losing money, but it can be ignored, while its V agency, Blizzard, Take-Two, and "Polish dumb donkey" CDPR The company's industry has performed exceptionally strong.

Since last year, Take-Two has also consolidated its financial statements with its parent company, Bluestar Technology. So far, all of these holding game companies have consolidated their financial statements with the parent company.

Blizzard Entertainment's new "World of Warcraft" expansion piece "Wrath of the Lich King" has performed extremely gratifyingly since its release, allowing this phenomenon-level game to continue to dominate the PC-side online game market, and the mainland will be on sale next year.

The performance of V agency is quite good. Its "DOTA" is popular nowadays. Speaking of this matter, there have been some disputes. Blizzard and the "DOTA" map core producer "Ice Frog" fought a lawsuit, the latter Resolutely "return to" V company.

Since the parent company, Bluestar Technology, has "stocked up" after acquiring these two game companies, it doesn't care at all. The following major game developers operate separately, and their peers are enemies, and they sometimes fight each other.

In the end, it went to the parent company, and the Nima parent company was not easy to do. Zhang Bowen’s strategy was...nothing.

Go and make trouble, anyway, it will be mine in the end, and it will save you that the parent company will not abide by the original promise and interfere with your operations.

So the two sides can only pinch.

And this little thing didn't even reach Luo Sheng's ears.

The "Witcher" released by CDPR is also quite eye-catching. Although it has not become a phenomenal masterpiece, it is also a best-selling work.

The most dazzling one is undoubtedly the R star of Take-Two. The fourth part of the "GTA" series, the treasure of the town shop, was released in early December last year. I still remember that some analysts predicted that "GTA4" would reach 5.8 million sales in the first week. Set around.

At that time, most people still felt that such a prediction was too optimistic, because even the previous game "GTA San Andres", which occupied the top spot in the history of PS2 software sales, took nearly a month to break through 5 million sets of sales.

However, the final result was that "GTA4" sold 3.6 million units on the first day of release, breaking 6.5 million units in the first week.

Faced with such crazy numbers, the term "monster-level software" may seem a bit outdated.

Throughout the dazzling transcript of the second quarter of 2009, the game division of Bluestar Technology Group contributed US$990 million in revenue this quarter. This was a low season when several game companies did not release major games. It is not dazzling.

In addition to envy, people can only look forward to and sigh.

Luo Sheng’s acquisition of these companies was questioned by investors, and now he has become a super cash cow of Bluestar Technology Group, reaping profits frantically in the global game market.

With this dazzling transcript drifting across the ocean, the Nasdaq stocks rose sharply at the opening of the NASDAQ trading day. The stock rose by 7.5% on the day to approximately US$17.15 billion. The market value of Bluestar Technology in after-hours trading was innovative. The group has a record high with a total market value of US$245.852 billion, ranking fourth in the list of the world's top ten listed companies.

Ranked third in front of Bluestar Technology is ICBC, "The First Line of the Universe That La Ji's Love Is Existing", with a total market value of 250.43 billion US dollars.

The second place is Exxon Mobil Corporation, with a total market value of 337.2 billion US dollars.

The first is China Petroleum, with a total market value of 352.3 billion US dollars.

After the Bluestar Technology Group is impressively Microsoft, with a current market value of US$226.7 billion.

There is no doubt that Bluestar Technology is now regarded as the pride of the mainland netizens who eat melons. Its status in the country is like Samsung to South Korea, Sony to Japan, Alstom to France, and General Electric. Same as in the United States.

In the past, whenever technology companies and the IT industry were mentioned, companies such as Microsoft, Google, and IBM would not be surprised to talk about them. These technology companies are indeed great companies.

But no matter how great it is, it is also an American enterprise. For the people in the mainland, they can only envy and hate.

But now, one's own country finally has a top high-tech company that can be compared with these familiar world-class companies, not only not weaker than those old IT giants, but even worse.

This dazzling transcript of tens of billions of dollars in revenue is not just a string of data, but also the pride and joy of countless people.

For many fans of Bluestar Technology and Luo Sheng, the competing reports of the major news media in the industry, although they have no real relationship with them, and will not benefit from them, they read the news with relish and heartfelt heart.
