Reborn multinational giant

Entering the end of November, the weather in Yanjing was already quite cold. In mid-November, Quan Yanjing had already turned on the heating as usual. This surprised many friends who were used to freezing in the south!

On such cold days, Fang Zhe, the big boss of Huizhong, received an invitation from Baidu, one of the culprits that caused Huizhong’s employees to complain some time ago, from a newly moved neighbor.

In terms of the relationship between Huizhong and Baidu, it is quite close, especially more than half a year ago, in order to monopolize online advertising traffic, 51wan-led web game platforms attracted a large number of advertisers to set up advertising alliances.

Huizhong has to strengthen cooperation with Baidu, which is the No.1 thick thigh of the network traffic. As a result, the business exchanges and cooperation between the two companies have improved. Huizhong is currently regarded as Baidu. A big benefactor!

In turn, Baidu is one of Huizhong's Zhongle page game platform and one of the largest traffic portals. It can be said that Baidu did not pinch Huizhong's neck, but also put its palm on the base of Huizhong's neck.

Everyone understands the truth that eggs cannot be put in one basket, but when there are few baskets, you have to put many eggs in one basket.

Fang Zhe and his senior executives also discussed many ways to solve this problem, such as big IP strategy, such as strengthening the cooperation with other novel websites, Tudou Youku and other video websites, but on the whole, as China Baidu, the largest search engine, is still the basket that cannot be bypassed anyway.

There are thousands of websites and tens of thousands of companies in China that rely on Baidu to survive, but this is not false. Without search engines, the entire Internet will be paralyzed by half. Therefore, Baidu's position in the domestic Internet industry, whether it is profitable In terms of performance or influence, they rank in the top three with Tencent and Alibaba.

Baidu has experienced several public opinion crises in the past, but apart from the media and netizens, it is rare that any company dared to stand up or criticize it. For this reason, although Huizhong started with games and made a lot of money, it had to follow Baidu has a good relationship!

Therefore, when Baidu Manager Li's autographed invitation letter was placed on Fang Zhe's desk, Fang Zhe did not pretend to be hypocritical or ostentatious, so he directly asked Secretary Li Wen to contact Baidu to set a meeting time.

On November 30, the last day of November, Fang Zhe asked the company's driver Lao Zhang to drive in the company's purchased presidential business vehicle, an imported extended Mercedes-Benz S600, and drove himself and his secretary Li Wen to Baidu's search Box building.

Although the two companies are only two blocks away, it takes only ten minutes to walk, but the price can't drop!Fang Zhe couldn't imagine what it would be like to see Li on Baidu on foot.

Baidu's search box building is also considered a well-known building in the Internet industry. The building is not high and has only 7 floors on the ground, but it is better than it covers a large area and can accommodate tens of thousands of people to work together.

Construction of the building started in July 2007 and was topped in May last year. Until half a month ago, Baidu employees who had been in many office buildings throughout Yanjing moved in one after another.

To be honest, Fang Zhe is very envious of Baidu's own building. Not to mention that this building is his own. The entire building is managed by himself from design to construction.

From staff rest area, entertainment area, to fitness area, restaurant, commissary and even library, everything is available. It can be said to be humanized to employees and achieve a very avant-garde status in China.

Large companies have diseases and troubles of large companies. The food and drink of tens of thousands of employees must be taken care of properly, so that employees can not worry about these trivial matters and work well with peace of mind.

Although Huizhong has bought four floors of the office building where it is located, it is only two floors behind the entire building. However, the supporting facilities in many places are already somewhat due to the old environmental factors. Can't keep up.

After Fang Zhe got out of the car, he ignored the Baidu employees passing by, and looked curiously or pointed at himself. From the very first glance, he looked at himself on the extended version of Mercedes-Benz S600, which was very rich. He first stood quietly in front of him and searched. In front of the building, he pondered for several seconds.

No, we Huizhong will also build a building!

Rich men will go bad, and rich men will drift even more. At least in terms of what Fang Zhe has done during this time, he is already a little drifting.

Whether it is buying land for the housing problem of employees, or now because Baidu Building wants to build his own "Huizhong Building", anyway, even if others say that he is floating, he feels that these decisions he has made are very sufficient. The reason for this, after all, now that you use land to build a building, you will not lose money anyway!

"Hello, Mr. Fang, welcome!" Fang Zhe is comparing the Baidu Building in front of him with the Baidu Building he has seen several times in his previous life to see if there is any change. A few people walked over and interrupted his thinking. .

"Hello, Mr. Fang, I'm Xiang Shaolong, Executive Vice President of Baidu. This is Liang Ting, the person in charge of our company’s key customer reception department. This person is about the same age as Mr. Fang. He is from the e-commerce department of our company. Li Yuan, the person in charge.

Li Yuan joined us at Baidu in 2004, and has led the design and construction of our products such as Baidu Tieba, Baidu Baike, and Baidu Zhizhi. We, President Li, value him very much!"

A middle-aged man in a suit with glasses stood in the front, shaking hands with Fang Zhe and introducing Fang Zhe.

In his previous life, Fang Zhe had seen photos of Xiang Shaolong, Baidu's No. 2 person in the future, on the Internet several times, but he really did not remember his looks.

Including Tencent and Alibaba, Fang Zhe only remembers a few executives like Cai Chongxin and Peng Lei who often show their faces, such as Xiang Shaolong and Liu Zhiping, who are down-to-earth and low-key executives, if you don’t pay attention , Really don't know much about them.

After shaking hands with Xiang Shaolong, Fang Zhe politely shook hands with Liang Ting and Li Yuan behind her. At Li Yuan, Fang Zhe paused slightly.

This one belongs to an executive who paid more attention to Baidu by Fang Zhe in the previous life. There is no other reason. He is very young and capable. Let’s not talk about the excellent products such as Baidu Tieba, which he dominates. In his previous life, he used to After leaving Baidu for a while, he went to UC as an executive for a few years, and then returned to Baidu, and soon became Baidu's youngest vice president. At that time, he had just turned 30.

For a large company like Baidu, one of the best in China, a 30-year-old can become a vice president. In addition to his outstanding personal abilities, Mr. Li also values ​​him very importantly.

It is a pity that he left Baidu for some reasons, and there are struggles where there are people. What's more, Baidu is a big company that has been around for 9 years.

"Hello, Mr. Fang, look up for a long time!" Li Yuan shook hands with Fang Zhe very modestly, and even bent his waist slightly. Indeed, a head of Baidu's business department has a valuation of nearly 10 billion with Fang Zhe. There is still a big gap between the US dollar company boss.

Fang Zhe smiled at him and didn't say anything. He was out of reach in his previous life, and he was out of reach in this life. This is probably the coolest thing about being born again!

Fang Zhe and Li Wen walked inside the Baidu search box building under the guidance of Xiang Shaolong and others, while Lao Zhang turned around and drove the car to a nearby parking spot. Get off the car and find a nearby spot for a good view. In the cafe, while drinking coffee to be warm and warm, while waiting for Li Wen to call himself and pick up the boss to go home, it can be said to be leisurely and happy!
