Chapter 1499 Internet II. Zero Era
Li Mu announced that he would build Muye Technology into the first truly open platform in the industry, which was a huge piece of good news for most of the heads of small and medium-sized enterprises and entrepreneurs at the scene. The media was also broken by Li Mu's initiative. In the eyes of these people, Li Mu is a global leader in terms of corporate size, personal wealth, industry influence, as well as his mind and sense of responsibility for the entire industry. A true leader in the Internet industry.
When they stood up to applaud Li Mu, those heads of large enterprises with a higher vision finally understood why Li Mu made the signing ceremony so grand.
Li Mu didn't want to show off his extremely successful "extortion" to the world, but he wanted to take advantage of this opportunity that the global Internet industry is paying attention to, to release a signal to the entire industry: I want to be the father of the entire industry, and I will follow suit from now on. I am prosperous, and those who oppose me perish.
Such a strategy has made many heads of large enterprises worried, and the young man on stage who calmly accepted the thunderous applause from the audience with a smile on his face made them shudder even more.
On the stage, Li Mu gestured with both hands, suppressed the applause from the audience, and continued:
"I think that the real industrial upgrading in the Internet age is that large companies with responsibilities and responsibilities continue to open up their products, their users, and their entire ecology, to accept more small and medium-sized companies, and even accept companies of the same level. Big companies have transformed the Internet from countless unrelated individuals into a melting pot that merges with each other and produces chemical reactions with each other. Only in this way can we create more new elements in the Internet."
Having said this, Li Mu paused and said, "I believe that the era of Internet warlords' separatism and melee wars has passed, and the war and confrontation between companies are no longer the inevitable way for Internet companies to survive. Stop the war, stop the internal friction, and put all your energy into your own development. This is the best way of cooperation between the vast majority of Internet companies;
Just like the cooperation between Muye Technology, Baidu and Google, in the confrontation stage, the three companies are doing subtraction to varying degrees, but in the cooperation stage, the three companies can not only stop losses in time, but also work together to achieve new growth and breakthroughs, about this One point, you can understand the change in the valuation of Google in the capital market after the announcement of the cooperation. I am not talking about 50% growth, or 100% growth, but more than 300%. Growth, that's what I just called chemistry. "
The changes in Google's valuation are obvious to all in the industry. From a global outlook to a global outlook, the changes Google has achieved are reborn, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it was born out of desperation. If Google chooses to continue to fight, it may be three consecutive times today. A billion-dollar market cap cannot be preserved.
The intuitive example made the entrepreneurs in the audience realize that the cooperation that Li Mu said can play a decisive role in the development of the enterprise. They can also imagine that when Muye Technology truly becomes an open enterprise ,
How attractive it will be.
At that time, I am afraid that the whole industry is looking for the opportunity of in-depth co-leasing with Muye Technology, and Muye Technology will further establish its status as the godfather of the industry.
After another thunderous applause, Li Mu's voice increased a bit, raised his right hand to his chest, and said impassively: "I believe that the 2.0 era of the Internet is coming, and in this new era, we need to make some new changes. , Make some new breakthroughs! If you have any doubts about this 2.0 era, it doesn't matter, Muye Technology and all companies that cooperate with Muye Technology are willing to take the lead and use practical actions to clear the clouds and clear your doubts. There is still a long way to go, we are waiting for you ahead!"
When Li Mu bowed to the audience, the audience stood up again. Applause, praise and cheers filled the entire venue. The media focused on Li Mu in the center of the stage and every fanatical person in the audience. Li Mu has become the true godfather of the Internet industry in the eyes of most people.
Media reporters quickly relayed Li Mu's remarks on "open platform" and "Internet 2.0 era" from the front-end site to the back-end headquarters, and then the global media began to publish newsletters with only two central ideas:
1. Li Mu will build Muye Technology into the first open platform in the Internet industry;
2. Li Mu will lead Muye Technology to take the lead in entering the Internet 2.0 era!
...
After Li Mu walked off the stage, the host came to the stage to announce the official start of the signing ceremony. In the excitement of the audience, Larry Page, Robin and Li Mu returned to the stage and sat at the tables prepared for each of them.
The hostess presented three formal agreements. After the three exchanged their names, Li Mu, who was sitting in the middle, stretched out his hand and shook hands with Robin on one side, and then with Robin on the other side. Larry Page shook hands, Larry Page also stepped forward to shake hands with Robin, and the host officially announced: Google officially completed the acquisition of Muye&Baidu, and Muye&Baidu also officially became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Google.
Then came the Q&A session that everyone was looking forward to.
The staff quickly removed the tables and chairs on the stage and replaced them with four single-seat sofas. Li Mu, Robin, and Larry Page were sitting facing the stage. Sit at an angle.
After the three of them were seated, the host said: "I believe that many of the guests at the scene have many questions to ask our three protagonists on stage, especially Mr. Li Mu Li, when you were speaking just now, I was in the audience. , I found that thousands of our guests and journalist friends pay the most attention to your remarks on the open platform and the Internet 2.0 era, and I believe that everyone must have many questions to ask you."
Li Mu nodded politely.
At this time, the host added: "In today's Q&A session, each guest will answer three questions. We will follow the order of speeches before the ceremony today. Mr. Larry Page will first choose the questioner, and Answer the questioner's question, then Mr. Robin, and Mr. Li Mu, so now if you want to ask Mr. Page, you can raise your hand."
Many media reporters and entrepreneurs in the audience raised their hands one after another. Larry Page's first questioner was a female reporter from an American media.
After the female reporter got the microphone, she immediately got up and asked, "Mr. Page, I would like to ask you, when Google chose to cooperate deeply with Muye Technology, Muye Technology announced that it will give up its own role in the field of search engines in the next five years. It also means that Google will also give up all overlapping business with Muye Technology?"
Larry Page smiled and said: "Google's goal is very clear, that is to take root in the field of search engines and make this business bigger and stronger, even if we don't cooperate with Muye Technology, we have never thought about trying Muye. The existing business of technology, so my answer is: Google never wanted to do those businesses, so naturally it can’t be said to give up.”
The female reporter nodded: "Thank you, Mr. Page."
Later, Larry Page chose another reporter from China Media. The other party stood up and asked politely, "Mr. Page, I would like to ask, how big do you think the market space and prospects of search engines are in the future?"
Larry Page pondered for a moment and said, "I am very optimistic about search engines. I think the market space of search engines will occupy at least 30% of the entire Internet industry in the future, because every netizen cannot live without it. Search engines, and in the future, most of the traffic will flow into search engines first, and then distributed to various websites by search engines. Search engines will become the 'Atlanta Airport' in the future Internet field. As we all know, Atlanta Airport has the largest tourist throughput in the world. No matter where the destination is, a large percentage of travelers pass through Atlanta.”
The reporter who asked the question thanked him with satisfaction. The host reminded at the right time: "There is one last opportunity to ask Mr. Page a question. Please raise your hands as soon as possible."
As soon as the words fell, more people raised their hands to signal that they wanted to ask questions.
Larry Page did not choose from the reporters this time, but chose a guest at the scene. The other party was young, dressed plainly and wore myopia glasses. He looked a lot like an Internet entrepreneur.
The selected guest was a white man. After he got up, he first introduced himself to Larry Page and said, "Hello, Mr. Page, I am the CEO of St. Roy in Silicon Valley, and I want to ask a question. Yes: Google has now reached a cooperation with Muye Technology at the expense of its interests, and has also received five years of security, but if after five years, Muye Technology decides to make its own search engine, what will Google do then?"
Larry Page looked at Li Mu, then looked at the questioner, and said jokingly: "To be honest, I haven't thought about this issue, because I think that the five years of Muye Technology's cooperation with Google In time, it will be able to help Google grow into the strongest company in the search engine field. At that time, Google's market value will also give Muye a huge return. In this case, why should Muye try to make one by itself? What about search engines?"
After finishing speaking, Larry Page looked at Li Mu with a smile on his face, but he asked in a vague way, "Mr. Li, what do you think?"
Li Mu smiled slightly, picked up the microphone, and said indifferently: "Actually, this gentleman's questioning mentality is still in the typical mentality of entrepreneurs in the Internet 1.0 era. I don't trust anyone', like Germany and the Soviet Union during World War II, even if they signed a non-aggression pact, everyone is secretly sharpening their knives, but as I said just now, if the Internet 1.0 era is a world war , then the 2.0 era should be post-war reconstruction.”
After a pause, Li Mu added: "The key to post-war reconstruction is to divert most of the manpower, material resources, and energy that was previously used to fight against others, and use it for one's own development. Mentality and strategy will inevitably be phased out by this society. Fortunately, Makino Technology and Google have gotten rid of this mentality and entered the Internet 2.0 era I just mentioned. In this new 2.0 era, Makino Technology and Google have also It's no longer a German-Soviet relationship, it's a U.S.-Canada relationship."
After saying this, Li Mu looked at the questioner playfully and said with a smile, "Since you are an entrepreneur in Silicon Valley, you should be American, right?"
The other party nodded lightly and said, "Yes, I'm American."
Li Mu smiled slightly and asked him, "Then let me ask you a question."
The other party hurriedly said, "Mr. Li, please speak."
Li Mu asked curiously, "Do you think that someday in the future, the United States will suddenly mobilize heavy troops to invade Canada?"
