Reborn multinational giant

Chapter 62 The so-called "strategic thinking"

And now, he feels that the young man in front of him does have some abilities. Let alone what Mr. Zheng said just now, the company’s development plan, including the establishment of a web game platform, is all of the young man in front of him. idea.

What’s even more powerful is that they can find themselves, a person who has been in the sp industry. You know, on the face of it, the page game platform is nothing more than a website with a bunch of page game games. Behind it, it represents the powerful platform. The issuance volume and operational capabilities of the company, and in the current market, this part of the resources has always been in the hands of the big players in the sp industry and several large companies such as Baidu.

Therefore, it is basically impossible to build a web game platform without the contacts of the sp industry or large companies.

After thinking about this, Li Yifei also understood that compared to his own personal dating project on Sina’s face, he is actually in such an embarrassing situation at the edge. The Huizhong company in front of him is indeed A development platform more suitable for you.

However, suitable is suitable. Whether you want to go or not depends on the conditions of their company. Therefore, in the following conversation, Li Yifei said directly:

"I am also very optimistic about your company's intentions and plans to build a web game platform. According to my personal understanding, the web game industry is indeed in a rising period, but,"

When Li Yifei finished speaking, he paused for a while before saying:

"From the situation mentioned by Mr. Zheng just now, depending on your company's current conditions and strength, it is still quite difficult to build and operate a web game platform."

Both Fang Zhe and Zheng Siwen understood that Li Yifei was already a little moved, and what he meant was nothing more than to raise his own value and highlight his importance.

Fang Zhe feels a little funny in his heart. If you know that in a few years you will start your own business and set up a web game platform, and become the boss of a listed company with a valuation of tens of billions, I wonder if you will regret meeting us today.

And now Li Yifei wants to raise his own worth, raise the price, can he raise the worth of a listed company boss?

Fang Zhe, who smiled inwardly, showed no expression on the surface, he said in a calm tone:

"Mr. Li, Mr. Zheng also briefly told you about the situation of our company. Indeed, as you said, it is very difficult to build and operate a web game platform under our current conditions, but,"

Fang Philosophy changed his tone and said:

"Let me ask you first, what project or business are you currently responsible for at Sina? Wouldn't it be convenient to disclose it?"

Although Fang Zhe knows that he is now in charge of the Sina dating project, he still wants to let him speak out himself.

"Me?" Li Yifei didn't know why Fang Zhe suddenly asked about this. It stands to reason that they were looking for a headhunter to dig themselves. They should have already understood it before, but he didn't mind, and replied:

"I am now in the company, responsible for the Sina dating project. This is one of our company's key projects this year. Social networking has always been one of our company's main strategies."

Fang Zhe raised his hand and hammered his mouth, holding the corner of his mouth that he wanted to laugh.

"Key projects? Main strategies?" Fang Zhe thought in his heart, yes, yes, social networking has always been one of Sina's main strategies, otherwise it would not have been tossing from the chat room a few years ago, Sina uc, etc. Later, Sina Weibo was considered a very successful social product.

When the company is big, in addition to its own core business, there are always several main strategies. Like a big proverb in the Internet industry in the past, Ali’s search for social networking will never die, Tencent's search for e-commerce will not die, and Baidu's social e-commerce will not die. For more than a decade, the three giants will occasionally go to each other's core business areas to participate in the fight. Even if it doesn't hurt you, they will feel sick.A lot of products such as Tencent's Yi Xun Paipai Sou Sou, Ali's Shenma Laihua, Baidu's Baidu hi Baidu Space, etc. are all products of the so-called "strategic thinking" of the giants.

And Li Yifei's so-called "key project" is nothing more than a strategic attempt by Sina. Except for practitioners in the Internet industry like Fang Zhe, most ordinary users do not even know that there is a product like Sina Dating.

Therefore, Fang Zhe’s tone of speech is very direct:

"Mr. Li, Mr. Zheng and I are both outsiders. It will not affect your future development in the company. Would you like to say something in your heart, are you really optimistic about the projects you are currently responsible for?"

Li Yifei didn't say a word, do you think I will come to talk to you?

When Fang Zhe saw his silence, he understood that he had acquiesced. Speaking of it, Fang Zhe also felt sorry for him. He worked hard in the company for five or six years and tried his best. The sp business he was in charge of before was also regarded as impressive, but now he is The company arranges such a lukewarm project, and then I want to go further in the company, and I don't know how long it will last.

In a sense, he and the entire project are just the victims of the company's strategic attempts. Such things are not uncommon in large companies, and this may also be one of the reasons why he left Sina in 2009 in his previous life.

"Mr. Li, you are the same age as me this year. It is the golden age of your career ascent. Missing these few years will have a lot of impact on your future career development." Zheng Siwen took over Fang Zhe's words And continued:

"Mr. Li, you said that I was at Goldman Sachs in the United States a few years ago and encountered the same problem as you. When the company is big, it is impossible for everyone to arrange the people to do what they want. Sometimes, the choice is ours. The web game industry has begun to explode. Since the end of last year, domestic web game projects with a monthly turnover of over 10 million have been born. Facebook has established an open platform overseas, and many web game companies have been established at home and abroad. It's still you, it's a rare opportunity.

If you are willing to join our company, I have discussed with the general manager, you can consider giving you 1%-3% of the company’s shares and performance options, or in the future, you can separate the web game platform and other related businesses and establish a separate subsidiary , So whether it is equity distribution or your personal career development, it is very good."

Regarding the price and conditions of soliciting Li Yifei, Fang Zhe and Zheng Siwen discussed carefully, from the market value of 37wan, Budeng.com and other web game platform companies in the previous life, to the market value of social-oriented companies such as Tencent and Facebook. Fang Zhe feels that Huizhong’s 1%-3% equity is fully valued by Li Yifei.

However, this is the prerequisite for Fang Zhe to succeed in making globalized mobile IM products. At this stage, making globalized mobile IM products is a core secret that only he and Zheng Siwen know, including other employees of the company. From the outside world, Huizhong’s current core strategy is a game company positioned in the mobile game and web game industries.

For this reason, Fang Zhe and Zheng Siwencai thought of another compromise plan, which is to separate the web game related business in the future, so that there is no need to hold the equity of a single subsidiary so tightly.
