Revisiting Future Path

Chapter 152: Invitation and counter invitation

153 Chicken Rib

Time magazine released the list of the world's 100 most influential people in 2005 in April. Under the category of "Builders & Titans", there are two Chinese nationals, one is Ren Zhengfei, and the other is Wei Dongsheng.

In July 2004, Huawei and Cisco reached a settlement agreement on the infringement issue. Since then, Cisco has always been talking about Huawei, spreading to the public how terrible Huawei is, and thus blocking Huawei's path to the United States.

Zhiyu's road to fame is similar. Zhiyu frequently borrows mature products from peers to remove key technical obstacles. Coupled with China's relatively low labor costs, the research and development costs of the Nation series of low-end chips are relatively low. In particular, the single-chip solution to be launched integrates radio frequency, power supply, multimedia and other functions in the baseband chip, and still has a very considerable price advantage after paying the patent fees. Compared with high-end chips, the Nation series chips are cheap and beautiful; compared with low-end chips, the Nation series are high-quality and inexpensive, bringing the market tsunami-like impact. Other chip vendors often put Zhiyu on the lips to promote the China Threat Theory. Together with the famous Cambrian 2004 name of Zhiyu's information industry, Wei Dongsheng re-elected the list of the world's 100 most influential people in 2005.

Wei Dongsheng is more famous in the United States and internationally than in China.

Wei Dongsheng benefited from his age advantage and has quickly become a business card for the rise of China.

Clinton knew Wei Dongsheng.

Clinton also believes that Wei Dongsheng has the ability to spend $1 billion.

Unfortunately, 10% equity is the expected return after all, and even Microsoft cannot guarantee that every investment of it will be realized. Clinton declined to say: "I am not worth a billion dollars."

Wei Dongsheng knows how high his charm value is, and love knows that it is impossible to persuade Clinton to reach a cooperation agreement with him in just a quarter of an hour. Today’s meeting is just to ask for directions, and the partner of future cooperation may not necessarily be Clinton. Therefore, Wei Dongsheng did not insist on the invitation, and immediately took it lightly: "Chunqiu's new business is very promising, and your value is definitely more than 1 billion US dollars."

Clinton smiled and said, "You have more confidence in me than I am."

Wei Dongsheng: "There is an ancient poem in China, "I don't know the true face of Mount Lu, but I am in this mountain." The American system has made you and it has restricted you. If you have an opportunity someday, let's talk more about it."

This concludes the conversation.

Wei Dongsheng and Clinton did not reach a cooperation agreement, nor did they discuss certain issues in depth.

This meeting was originally a superficial touch, so there is no need to demand any results.

This chess move will have to wait a while before it can be effective.

The goal has been achieved, and Wei Dongsheng immediately bid farewell to the host Ma Yun. Ma Yun did not dare to neglect Wei Dongsheng, personally bid farewell to Wei Dongsheng, and took the opportunity to communicate on the way: "Are you really optimistic about Alibaba?"

Wei Dongsheng: "Of course it is true."

Jack Ma: "Are you interested in investing in Alibaba?"

Wei Dongsheng avoided answering: "As far as I know, for Yahoo's $1 billion financing, SoftBank cashed out $210 million by selling shares in Taobao and then buying shares in Alibaba. Early venture capital also withdrew on a large scale, and Alibaba managed Tier and other shareholders cashed out US$540 million. Yahoo’s US$1 billion financing was cashed out by shareholders rather than reinvested. If I’m not mistaken, Alibaba should not be short of money now and can use Yahoo’s investment. To the listing."

Jack Ma: "Alibaba does not lack funds, but lacks technology, especially search technology. Alibaba agreed to Yahoo's financing in order to obtain Yahoo's search technology, but in the search engine field, Chunqiu is obviously stronger than Yahoo. Alibaba can go to Chunqiu. Transfer 15% of Taobao’s equity."

Wei Dongsheng: "What about the price?"

Jack Ma: "Softbank sold 50% of Taobao's equity at a price of 360 million U.S. dollars. 15% of the equity is 108 million U.S. dollars. Erase the fraction, 100 million U.S. dollars.

Wei Dongsheng nodded: "Ten years later, Taobao can be valued at 72 billion U.S. dollars. This is an investment that has increased 100 times in ten years."

Wei Dongsheng’s argument that Alibaba is valued at US$200 billion is too terrifying, and Jack Ma still dare not take it to heart. Hearing that Wei Dongsheng was valuing Taobao at $72 billion in the future, Ma Yun didn't know what to say for a while.

Wei Dongsheng sighed: "I don't want to set foot in the C2C field."

The first sentence said that Taobao is worth 200 billion U.S. dollars, and the next sentence said that he did not want to set foot in the C2C field. Jack Ma could not keep up with Wei Dongsheng's thinking. Jack Ma paused for two or three seconds to buffer, and asked: "Since you think this is an investment that has increased by a hundredfold, why don't you want to hold shares in Taobao?"

Wei Dongsheng bent his right index finger and tapped his forehead twice: "Human energy is limited."

Ma Yun said with a smile: "Online games to security software, third-party payments to online novels, search engines to social networking sites, I think Spring and Autumn’s business will spread to all aspects indefinitely. I never thought that it would come out of your mouth. 'The word.'

Wei Dongsheng explained: “The Spring and Autumn Security Steward guarantees safety, and the network novel guarantees the number of users, all for the purpose of building an ecological environment for online credit treasure recharge. It is not too much. The four-dimensional space is moved to Quantum Rose, which is purely a financial investment for half a year. Time is hard for me to go. Chunqiu's self-positioning is a search engine company. In the future, all products will revolve around the search engine core. The two online games "Ten Kingdoms" and "Road to Survival" will also move towards artificial intelligence in the future. Direction development. The distance between search engines and C2C Taobao is a bit far."

Ma Yun: "Taobao also needs a search engine."

Wei Dongsheng: "I know. In fact, Chunqiu Search internally is preparing image search technology, that is, search based on picture information, rather than traditional search based on text information. In the first stage, the search engine can compare the similarity of two pictures for users Recommend similar pictures; in the second stage, search engines can identify whether the content of the image is a dog or a cat, and can identify whether the content of the image is a celebrity or a politician."

Jack Ma immediately became excited: "This kind of technology sounds exciting."

Wei Dongsheng: "If all goes well, you will see image search options on the Spring and Autumn Search page in 2006."

Ma Yun: "Taobao needs such technology."

Wei Dongsheng: "I will think about it again."

Wei Dongsheng is really unwilling to waste his energy on developing e-commerce, but the temptation to add a hundredfold value is hesitant.

The food is tasteless, but it is a pity to discard it.

The 15% stake in Taobao is what Wei Dongsheng thinks.

Jack Ma confessed his heart in a sincere tone: "After repurchasing the shares of Taobao held by SoftBank, I am actively looking for new strategic partners. To be honest, if you were not for your amazing valuation of Alibaba at US$200 billion, I would even like to cooperate with Tencent. Cooperation. Taobao’s 15% stake was originally prepared for Tencent."

Wei Dongsheng smiled and said, "Ma Huateng will not accept your terms."

Jack Ma: "Why?"

Wei Dongsheng: "Within ten days, you will know the answer."

On the way to Xihu Lunjian, Ma Huateng has informed Wei Dongsheng that Tencent's e-commerce trading platform Paipai.com is ready and ready to go online at any time. Unless Jack Ma is willing to take a big step back and give up at least 50% of Taobao's equity, he can hope to persuade Tencent to abandon the Paipai project. In terms of Jack Ma’s character, since he took pains to recover 50% of Taobao’s equity from SoftBank, he would never give Tencent another 50% of equity. The war between Taobao and Paipai is bound to be unavoidable.

Until Wei Dongsheng left Hangzhou, he did not clearly answer whether Ma Yun was willing to participate in Taobao.

The Xihu Lunjian in 2005 ended here.

After finishing the international layout that few people can understand at present, Wei Dongsheng went straight to Yanjing to handle some trivial matters, and then leisurely transferred to Yanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics.

Unlike other freshmen in the 2005 class, Wei Dongsheng doesn't have to worry about missing classes, because before Wei Dongsheng decided to come to Yanhang to be named, Yanhang Computer College solved Wei Dongsheng's worries. Wei Dongsheng doesn’t even have to stay in school for three full years like Wuping High School. He only needs to go through the procedures step by step, and then he can obtain the corresponding degrees such as undergraduate, graduate, and doctoral degrees in a very short time, and then be specially appointed by Yanhang as a professor-level researcher.

It sounds exaggerated, but Wei Dongsheng's achievements are even more exaggerated.

As mentioned earlier, unlike other industries, the most important thing in the computer field is the international academic conferences and journals recommended by the Chinese Computer Society. At a university of the level of Yanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, the standard for doctoral graduation is a full_paper of a class A conference. The team of Wei Dongsheng and Xiao Lei, in the field of supercomputers, first achieved the No. 1 position in China with the Cambrian 2004A, and then used the Cambrian 2004B and the Cambrian 2004C to defeat IBM’s blue gene and firmly maintain the world’s number one position. One seat. After the impact of Cambrian 2004A to Cambrian 2004C, no one suspected that Zhiyu was cheating. Therefore, various honors have been rushing to Wei Dongsheng recently.

Cambrian 2004C is the world's first, Cambrian 2004D is sprinting new records.

In the field of high-performance computers, the team of Wei Dongsheng and Xiao Lei is undoubtedly the world's top team. Professor Qian Depei, the leader of the key special expert group for high-performance computing, should bow down to listen to the suggestions of Xiao Lei's team and respect the judgment of Xiao Lei's team in terms of specific technical planning. For the so-called Class A full_paper, Wei Dongsheng dare not boast that he can read a few if he wants to, but as long as he wants to do it and is willing to do it, he will be able to easily get seven or eight of them in a short time.

Looking at Wei Dongsheng from the undergraduate, graduate, and doctoral training mechanism, Wei Dongsheng has long exceeded the standard. It would be a waste of talent to allow Wei Dongsheng to study for four years of undergraduate education step by step, and the education system in China is not so rigid. At the same time, Xiao Lei's team has frequent business contacts with the Institute of Computing Technology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Tsinghua University, Yanhang University and other universities, and has established a network of contacts with abundant capital advantages. Wei Dongsheng took a special path to become the youngest professor in the history of China, which is a natural result.
