Global monopoly of technology

Luo Sheng certainly did not expect that because of his reasons, Ali had been forced to have an IPO a year in advance.

Although President Ma’s opponents were calm and calm, he was actually panicked. Bluestar Technology has been fighting for a long time and even Wall Street was overturned last year.

This kind of competitor will panic if anyone encounters it, but it still can't show it. Not only can it not, but it has to be unusually calm.

However, Mr. Ma's analysis is indeed very reasonable. Luo Sheng really can't focus all his energy on this now, and his family's great cause is too great.

The three major strategies of Bluestar Technology alone are not easy, and the "Snowman Project" and the "Ladder Project" must be launched. Star Arrow International is currently one of Luo Sheng's main focus of work.

Secondly, the new energy vehicle company project strategy of the Blue Coast, the domestic semiconductor industry chain strategy, the life science fund strategy and so on.

The family business is so huge that just sorting out the strategy is enough. Luo Sheng now almost ignores the tactics, unless it is a very important node, such as WeChat, which is related to the major events of the entire group company's mobile Internet era.

As for things like e-sports, if the people below take the e-sports business group to come to him to make reports and make decisions, Luo Sheng will definitely train the other party to be bloody, and then fire on the spot.

...

As time entered mid-March, Luo Sheng, who spent most of his time working on Star Arrow International and Pantech, got out of it, and took his private plane to Pengcheng to participate in this year's IT Leadership Summit.

This time I stayed for two days and left.

"I'm sorry to tell you one thing, your magical aura finally won't be bought." Qin Weimu entered the hotel guest room, she brought a document and Luo Sheng arrived ten minutes earlier than her.

"This is the fax information that Pang Lei just sent." As he said, Qin Weimu handed the materials in his hand to Luo Sheng. After receiving the materials, he didn't rush to open it, but looked at her and asked curiously: " Who won't buy my account?"

Qin Weimu replied: "The one you specifically named is Zhang Yiming, the founder of Toutiao. I found that your vision is really unique. This person is indeed a bit different from other founders."

Luo Sheng smiled and didn't explain this, and asked, "How do you say it?"

"I roughly read the information from Pang Lei, and there is a sentence written by Zhang Yiming that can summarize why he refused to invest in Bluestar Technology: I created Toutiao, not wanting to become an employee of Bluestar Technology. We hope to be able to To become a platform-level company with great value and significance to society, I mainly want to express to employees or the industry that Toutiao still has its own ambitions."

Speaking of this, Qin Weimu couldn't help but praised: "I think you didn't look away. Zhang Yiming's statement is really admirable. Moreover, he not only rejected us, but also rejected Ali. It seems that as long as the giants invest in him, he has nothing to do. Hesitantly refused."

Luo Sheng nodded without speaking, opened the material and started to browse the content of Pang Lei's report, Qin Weimu also went directly to the bathroom.

I have to say that Luo Sheng really appreciates Zhang Yiming. From the past ten years to today, the domestic Internet market has basically been monopolized by "LATB".

Baidu has basically fallen behind, Ali has achieved a rise, Teng Xun has made a fortune in a dull voice, and Bluestar Technology is the brand name of Huaguo Internet Technology Company.

It is under such a market structure, especially since this year, almost all major startups have been unable to escape the fate of being acquired by Bluestar Technology or Alibaba or being invested in shares, while other startups simply rushed under the tree to enjoy the cool , To hold the thigh or stand in line as the main goal.

In this situation, today's headline founded by Zhang Yiming can refuse the olive branch thrown by Bluestar Technology, which is tantamount to rejecting the huge temptation and insisting on its lofty goal of becoming a platform-level company.

At this point, many domestic entrepreneurs have been thrown away, and Zhang Yiming is obviously higher than them.

Qin Weimu came out of the bathroom and saw Luo Sheng still sitting on the sofa looking through the documents passed by Pang Lei. She came to the side and sat down and couldn't help saying:

"At the same time, I rejected giants like Bluestar Technology and Ali. I believe Zhang Yiming should clearly know that Toutiao, which is still in the incubation stage, will face the cruel chase and interception of the two giants and other competitors at the same time. This shows that his The determination and courage to start a business are commendable."

Luo Sheng nodded and said: "It is indeed commendable. From an objective perspective, this is also an incentive and encouragement for current entrepreneurs. If current Internet entrepreneurs have his structure and courage, then the Internet of China Today It may be able to break the monopoly pattern of'LATB' over the past decade and present a new industry pattern."

Hearing this, Qin Weimu turned his head to look at him and laughed: "That's what I said, but you definitely won't see what happened, right?"

Luo Sheng smiled and said: "Yes. Appreciation goes to appreciation, one yard goes to one yard. He Zhang Yiming refused me, I want to take him."

Qin Weimu: "Luohua deliberately flows and is ruthless, how to get it? Take a step back and say that since you are optimistic about the model of today's headlines, just let Bluestar Technology build a development and operation team to copy one? For example, it's called Bluestar Headline or something. , So Zhang Yiming has no chance at all."

Luo Sheng: “Direct copying is indeed the most worry-free and labor-saving way, and after doing so, today’s headlines, which are in the incubation stage, will definitely not be able to turn around. Meiyi sticks hitting half of the country's Internet, and even a little distraction can distract attention."

Obviously, it is definitely not peer competitors that can bring pressure to Luo Sheng, but the evil American emperor using national power.

As for the business competition of competitors in the same industry, Luo Sheng has never felt a clear and real sense of crisis.

Qin Weimu asked: "Then how are you going to fix him?"

Hearing this, Luo Sheng smiled: "Simply, you go and arrange the family fund to handle this matter. Isn't he rejecting the olive branch of the giants? Then I won't go directly. There are so many private equity investment fund institutions under the family fund, preferably foreign investment. In terms of identity, you arrange to find someone who understands Internet thinking to talk to Zhang Yiming as a VC. His rejection of the olive branch of the giant does not mean that he is not short of money."

Qin Weimu smiled knowingly and nodded: "Well, I'll deal with it."

In this way, Zhang Yiming will have to recognize it when he recognizes it, and he will have to recognize it when he doesn't recognize it.

In today's Internet entrepreneurship field, "burning money" is a puzzle that almost every startup company encounters every day, whether it is Bluestar Technology and Ali ten years ago, or the O2O industry, which is increasingly burning money now.

There is no shortage of large markets that can be burned by burning money. Whoever burns more money is likely to squeeze out competitors.

Today's Toutiao was established at exactly the first anniversary of the past March.

As a start-up company, if you don't have money, Zhang Yiming rejected the giant's solicitation, so he could only go to other VCs for financing, otherwise he would have nothing to do when the turmoil passed.

In the end, it will only leave another story in the industry: the consequences of rejecting the giant's bid is the end of Toutiao.

In this situation, Zhang Yiming was nothing but proved to be an arrogant loser.

Luo Sheng closed the materials and put them aside.

This matter is so set, today's headlines or future byte beating, this is Luo Sheng must control, this company is a model of emerging giants emerging in the 4G network era.

In the memory of Luo Sheng's last life, Toutiao or ByteDance is the only emerging Internet giant that has risen and reached hundreds of billions of dollars in the 4G era, especially the company's short video business.

For example, Douyin has made Tengxun feel a huge crisis in China. Bytedance uses this to faintly leverage Tengxun’s domestic social dominance. Internationally, the international version of Tik-Tok makes Xiaozha face. There is no way to calm down the book, and even imitate one.

Bluestar Technology's Internet social field in this world is equivalent to the previous life's Facebook + half of Tengxun, and this life Luo Sheng will definitely not let this happen, he does not want to be like the previous life's Teng Xun eagerly blocked all kinds of links to Toutiao's products on its social products to curb the other party's expansion speed.

Internet giants are sometimes replaced, which is just a matter of wind. After you react, it may be too late.

This year, 2013 is the first year when the mobile Internet era has taken off in an all-round way. 4G networks have been commercially available since last year, and 4G networks have begun to be fully popularized this year.

The popularization of the new generation of network technology infrastructure will inevitably give birth to new industrial chains and new demands. Now Toutiao is born. Soon short video services will usher in a new stage, waiting for 4G tariffs to decrease and network speeds to increase. With the improvement, short videos will rise rapidly, and the web live broadcast industry will also be hot. The e-sports industry will usher in the first round of explosions, and Luo Sheng has completed the layout many years ago.

Bluestar Technology emerged in the 2G network era and dominated the 3G network era. Luo Sheng's goal is more than that. From now on, it will lead Bluestar Technology to dominate the 4G network era and eventually monopolize the 5G network era in the next ten years.
