Chapter 2251 Refutation

People should be coming downstairs to eat or rest one after another, and the park is becoming lively at this time.

These sounds made Susan feel friendly.

This was the first time she discovered that Mr. Feng, who was always very kind in her impression, could actually be so direct.

And his directness put a lot of pressure on Susan, who also liked directness, even though he was still smiling at this time.

Of course, maybe it was the possibility that Feng Yiping mentioned that put great pressure on him.

In this world, there are always camps.

In essence, there is really no difference between shopping malls and battlefields, so the divisions between camps will be particularly obvious.

What is different from the battlefield is that in the shopping mall, the strongest person often cannot find any allies, while the opponents behind him and closest to him are often natural allies.

In the world of online advertising, this is the case.

Yahoo and Microsoft, which ranked behind Google, were natural allies at this time, and Google was targeted by them everywhere.

It is not difficult for Susan to imagine how much pressure she and her team would face if Feng Yiping's Facebook also joined the camp of Yahoo and Microsoft.

This was the first time that she felt so clearly that her vision was not high enough, because she had never looked at the competition between Google and Facebook from this perspective before.

Although from the current situation, Google does not seem to need allies, in the long run, with Facebook, an ally that even Susan feels wary of in terms of future development, is on its side, not on the other side. That's certainly a good thing.

Originally, Facebook should have been on the side of Yahoo and Microsoft.

Susan, who is most familiar with the competition with Yahoo and Microsoft, knows very well that if Facebook chooses to join Google, the alliance between Yahoo and Microsoft will only become weaker and weaker.

Susan clearly felt the gap.

Whether it's with Feng Yiping or Page Brin.

Not only in terms of vision, but also in terms of structure.

She would only look at the competition she faced dogmatically, but the three of them were obviously at a higher level and looked at the problem dialectically, so that they could grasp the core of the problem more accurately.

The core of this is that, relatively speaking, regardless of possible future mergers, the competition between Google and Facebook can now be regarded as an internal conflict, or at best a dispute between allies.

"Sorry Von, I've never looked at this from this perspective before, and it will undoubtedly be easier for us with you on our side," she said candidly.

Feng Yiping nodded. He liked dealing with such frank people.

"Then have you ever considered another question? Have you ever compared whether Facebook users use Google products more than users of other websites?"

Susan was stunned again. She shook her head, "No,"

"so……?"

"Yes," Feng Yiping said with certainty, "Facebook users will use Google products more. I think you can clearly draw this conclusion just by doing a simple comparison when you go back."

In other words, to a certain extent, the more Facebook users there are, the more Google users there will be. No wonder the relationship between the three of them is so good.

"Let's talk about another question. Although with the rise of the Internet, traditional media, especially content distribution platforms such as print media, are currently declining more and more obviously,"

"But looking at the entire advertising market, TV advertising is still the main body of the advertising market,"

The real smartphone, that is, Apple's iPhone, will not be available until next month. 4G is not yet popular, and the era of mobile Internet has not yet truly arrived. At this time, the turn-on rate of TVs is still very high.

Therefore, TV advertising, with its high coverage, is still the main body of the advertising market at this time.

"From this perspective, having more peers who can expand online advertising is a good thing for our Internet company,"

Susan nodded, "You're right,"

That is to say, from this perspective, even Yahoo and Microsoft can be regarded as allies, and they must compete with TV advertising together.

"Let's talk about the competition between Internet companies," Feng Yiping took a sip of water. "We know that Google's strength is in search, Facebook is naturally in social networking, Microsoft is undoubtedly the operating system, and Yahoo is,"

Having said this, he shook his head, "I really can't tell you what their strengths are now. They cast their net everywhere, but everything is sparse."

I don't know why, but after hearing Feng Yiping's words, Susan suddenly felt that Yahoo's future development would not be very good.

"One reality is that companies like us that originally had advantages in their respective fields will later, spontaneously or passively, enter areas where other companies are good at. For example, Microsoft has been working hard on search, and of course Yahoo has also left. Facebook has also left Don’t turn on search technology,”

"On the other hand, everyone is working hard on social aspects..."

"I think this is inevitable when the company develops to a certain height. When we reach a certain height and meet other partners there, we will have a feeling of reaching the same goal through different paths,"

"This brings a kind of temptation. Since everyone can reach such a height from different roads, standing at this height, it is naturally possible for me to follow the path those companions came from,"

"...that is, there are really no boundaries for those companies at the top,"

"So, while we are consolidating our own retreat, we are also attacking other people's retreat. This will be the norm,"

"Generally speaking, as long as we have consolidated our retreat, we will be invincible at this level. For the rest, we will be happy even if we win and lose."

"The most taboo thing is to ignore the road behind you, keep your eyes on other people, try every road, but give up halfway,"

Feng Yiping fell silent for a moment when he said this.

Susan thought he was talking about Yahoo again.

"...In short, the consequence of this is that you will find that all well-known high-tech companies will become more and more similar. You do search, I also do search, you do social networking, and I also do social networking..."

"We don't even rule out that in the future, Microsoft, which has always focused on software, will compete head-on with Apple on hardware,"

Feng Yiping had talked about this concept with his company's senior executives, but he only mentioned it a little bit to Susan.

"Do you understand the main point of what I'm saying?" he asked Susan.

"I probably understand. You are saying that our competitors in the future may be everyone, or," she revised, "it will be companies that seem to have no interest in us at this time."

"Yes, times are developing, and our competitors are also changing..."

"So the most important thing is to do our job to the best," Susan couldn't help but interrupt Feng Yiping, "This is how to cope with the ever-changing situation with inconvenience,"

Feng Yiping glanced at Susan. Her understanding was not comprehensive. Of course, as an executive, she was qualified.

"Yes, that's wrong," he thought for a moment. "We have to do our essential job well, which is to guard our retreat. But at the same time, we must grasp the pulse of the development of the times and make corresponding adjustments and attempts."

Susan felt that she couldn't keep up with Feng Yiping's thinking.

"You can think about a question, even if you beat all the competitors, will you be able to sit back and relax? Does that necessarily mean success?" Feng Yiping stood up, "You will figure it out."

"If you have to take care of the children at noon, I won't let you eat."

Dad Feng Yiping is very familiar with the smell of Susan. It is the unique smell of mothers in the lactation period.

"Oh, thank you Feng,"

"Owen, help me deliver Ms. Susan," Feng Yiping said, pointing to the gift box.

…………

Susan sat in the car for a long time in the Google parking lot.

After communicating with Feng Yiping, she seemed to understand many issues, and she seemed even more confused.

My mind was swaying and I was a little confused.

She didn't come back to her senses until her chest was swollen and painful. It was time to express milk again.

She hurried to the office. At least, her previous opinions about Feng Yiping and Facebook were now gone.

Not long after, Feng Yiping, who was having lunch in the office, received a call from Page, "I said, man, what's going on with you? What did you say to Susan? Why do I feel that she seems confused?"

"Have you made it clear to her?"

"She understands," Feng Yiping said, "Please also be prepared. I want Xiao Zha and Sandberg to visit you next,"

"Haha, you can solve your problems yourself," Page laughed.

In fact, he is not worried about this issue at all.

With the three of them here, problems in this area will not be a problem.

"Okay, are you all ready?" he asked.

This is really a problem.

Huang Jingping was somewhat resistant to attending Brin's wedding together.

Feng Yiping could probably understand the reason why she didn't want to go, because if she went, she would be envious of herself, so it was better not to go.

As for Ma Ling, it was naturally not suitable for him to attend such an occasion as his female companion.

"There may be something wrong. Jingping just feels a little unwell and has a bad cold, but we all hope it won't affect the trip,"

"Oh, please convey my regards," Page said, not worried at all about Huang Jingping's health.

Not just because she is still so young, but mainly because, based on regular comprehensive health examinations, they are unlikely to suddenly develop health problems.

However, for Americans, catching a cold is not a trivial matter (it will be the same for us later), so Feng Yiping’s foreshadowing is very good.

Even if Huang Jingping couldn't attend with him in three days, Bryn and Annie wouldn't have any objections. It wouldn't be good if the infection spread to other people at the wedding.

…………

On May 11, Feng Yiping arrived in the Bahamas Islands in the Caribbean Sea, which was also the wedding venue chosen by Bryn and Anne.

In fact, although it is called the Caribbean Bahamas, it is not in the Caribbean Sea, but in the North Atlantic Ocean not far from Florida.

Like the islands in the Caribbean, the sun shines brightly here.

The bright sunshine dyed everything on the beach a layer of blazing gold.

Even the air is exceptionally bright and fresh.

Feng Yiping lay on the lounge chair leisurely, thinking that he should take his two children to such an island for vacation.

Or, after next year, he should really buy himself an island.

However, for now, if there are more beauties on the beach, it will be even more perfect.

The security of Brin's wedding is naturally very strict, so he chose to book an island in the Bahamas.

The number of participants has also been strictly controlled. It is said that the number of invitations sent out is less than half a hundred, so the beach is the world of naughty children.

The few female guests are indeed very pleasing to the eye. Those who dare to wear bikinis on the beach at this time have good figures.

None of the people invited by Page are simple. Their families or girlfriends are naturally good in all aspects.

But for Feng Yiping, it is not appropriate for him to even watch them from a distance. Their boyfriends or husbands are sitting in the bar over there.

A person walked under Feng Yiping's parasol. Feng Yiping knew it was Page as soon as he heard the footsteps. "What's wrong? Don't you want to drink?"

The footsteps of several people came, and Feng Yiping looked and saw that Brin, who was about to become the groom, had also followed.

He and Brin were both dressed very casually at this time, both in beach pants and T-shirts, but they looked very serious. "What's wrong?" Feng Yiping sat up.

"Oh, hello," he saw that Michael Moritz and John Doerr were following behind him, the two most successful and well-known venture capitalists in the venture capital companies on Sand Hill Road.

Is there any dispute with them?

At this time, Schmidt also came over.

"Hi, Feng," the two greeted Feng Yiping separately.

Page and Brin didn't say anything, and sat down next to each other on Feng Yiping's lounge chair. Seeing this, Moritz and Doerr sat on another lounge chair under the parasol.

There was still room on that chair, but strangely, Schmidt didn't sit there, he chose to stand aside.

Feng Yiping looked around. Page and Brin seemed to be in some conflict with the two venture capitalists, but the two seemed to be focusing on him.

"Can anyone tell me what's going on?" he asked with a smile.

ps: Oh, it's the last day, should I also ask for monthly tickets? I have such a good character, everyone should give me some thanks, right?
