Chapter 2650: Tit for Tat (Part 2)

In Silicon Valley, soon after the meeting started, everyone's expressions gradually became serious.

The number of users is always the most important indicator for any company, and at the beginning of the meeting, Feng Yiping expressed that he was not too satisfied with Facebook's recent user growth.

"...I know that when a certain base is reached, the growth rate of new users will slow down, but this base must not be 300 million. I can tell you clearly that in my opinion, this base should be at least 1 billion... …”

"...I have told you a long time ago that at this stage, while opening up new markets, another important task is to work intensively in countries and regions where we already have a certain foundation, and develop the original points into areas. Then connect the noodles into pieces..."

"...I don't think I need to elaborate on the results in this regard. Even in North America and the United States, the results were not satisfactory,"

"The reason for this must be clear to everyone. With the strength and influence of our products, developing the market from 0 to 1, to 2, or 3 in a new country is certainly better than taking a market that has already developed to 5. , it’s easier to increase it to 6,”

"But because of this, we are rushing to develop new markets?"

"Are our sales staff just such a group of people who give up despite difficulties?"

"The same thing happens with advertising sales..."

"This reminds me of a cartoon I watched. A monkey ran into the cornfield, grabbed a corn, chewed it for a few times, and then dropped it. Then he picked a new corn, chewed a few mouthfuls of it, and then dropped it. Leave..."

"How many guys are like this monkey in our team? Is there a monkey king here, or is it gradually becoming a monkey king?"

"I didn't say it before, but from now on, we will never allow such monkeys to exist in our team!"

Starting from Sandberg and below, none of the business system executives can relax at this time.

"People in the technical department shouldn't think that this has nothing to do with you," Feng Yiping looked at the remaining guys who were relatively relaxed, "Have you dealt with the feedback from the marketing department in a timely manner?"

"While more and more companies and products are learning and absorbing the advantages of our products step by step, do we have the confidence to always stay ahead in this endless race?"

"Or do you think you can easily win by tinkering with the existing framework?"

"We are either Microsoft or Microsoft. After years of accumulation and designing the most scientific and complicated patent barriers around their products, we have today's advantageous position,"

"When was the last time you guys came up with a great idea?"

"I've seen the plans that everyone submitted recently," Feng Yiping picked up a folder next to him, "It's great, they're all really great!"

Then the folder was thrown down hard by him with a crisp "pop" sound, "But have you forgotten, what is a real idea?"

No one in the conference room raised his head.

"But it doesn't seem surprising, because it's been so long since you guys came up with a real idea,"

He paused for a while and took a sip of water. "Zach, how is the development of new products going?"

In Paris, Delanoe walked briskly downstairs. As he walked to his car, he was still talking to his boyfriend on the phone to confirm the location of today's dinner.

When he walked out of the city hall gate and looked at the brightly lit city in front of him, he felt a little proud.

The night view of Paris that is more brilliant than ever is largely due to him.

During his first term as mayor, he spent huge sums of money to launch a sleepless night program in Paris.

In addition to adding many landscape lights across the city, the plan also includes holding a "Sleepless Night," or "Day Night," event on the first Saturday in October each year.

From that Saturday night until the sun rises on Sunday, 125 areas in Paris are brightly lit all night long.

At the same time, there will be many artists creating works using light as a medium for everyone in Paris to appreciate.

And that night, all the museums in Paris were open all night, and there was no charge.

He recently heard that in China, there used to be a custom called "keeping the year old" during the New Year, but his plan is much more popular than the Chinese custom that not many people would follow for a long time.

Moreover, his plan has been imitated by cities including Brussels.

He believes that in his lifetime, more cities will hold such events, so he will be remembered by more people.

So every night, Delanoe was habitually in a good mood when he saw the brightly lit night view of Paris.

And today, thinking that his worries in the past two days were completely unnecessary, Delanoe looked at the Paris that he ruled as bright as day, and his mood was even better. What a beautiful city, what a beautiful night!

He walked towards his car with a smile. Just as his hand touched the door, he heard someone shout, "Mr. Mayor,"

Well, the sound contained quite a lot of sugar. When he heard the sound, he looked up. Not far away, there were several people looking at him with a smile. It seemed that they were citizens who supported him.

He was about to smile back, but felt like something was wrong?

Soon enough, a black shadow flew in front of him. In a hurry, he only had time to close his eyes when he felt a soft thing hit his forehead.

It was still a bit strong, so the package broke immediately. Delanoe, who tilted his head back, clearly felt that something cool flowed out, and then flowed into the bag that he didn't close because he was surprised. In the mouth.

Very salty, seems to be a little sweet?

Bah, bah, he vomited a few mouthfuls quickly, why should I taste what this tastes like?

"Louis, Louis," he opened one eye, touched the car door, and called his driver loudly.

He also discovered that there was red viscous liquid on his face... He almost vomited.

The driver, Louis, was running over from the driver's seat at this time, reminding him loudly, "Be careful!"

Again? Delanoe looked at the opposite side. Those guys weren't doing much, were they?

That's because this attack came from the side.

With a "pop" sound, the incoming object smashed against his ear.

This time, Delanoe didn’t need to look to know that this was an egg that had cracked the heads of many politicians.

At this time, the police whistle sounded, "Catch them!" He no longer cared about his demeanor, wiped his face with his hands, and shouted loudly.

Just when he lowered his head, "pop", another egg hit his other ear.

His anger suddenly reached its peak. Are you a Virgo with obsessive-compulsive disorder? Even if you throw an egg, you still have to pay attention to symmetry?

"Get 'em!"

"Mayor," Louis handed him a towel, and Delanoe wiped it roughly, confirming that the first thing that hit his face was ketchup, ketchup with a lot of salt added.

Then he discovered that the three groups who ambushed him had no intention of running away, and they all stood there with smiles, waiting for the police.

The first few people he saw looked like college students, but the ones on both sides were obviously children who had not yet attended high school.

At this time, in addition to smiles, there was also pride on their faces...

Feng Yiping's meeting is still going on, "...I have made it clear the final deadline, which is before Christmas. However, I hope that what will be launched by then will be a complete product,"

"Von, that's totally fine," Zuckerberg said immediately.

If the product proposed by Feng Yiping that everyone finds amazing cannot be completed before Christmas, then he feels that he can pack it up and go back to Harvard to continue reading.

"What about the adaptation to Apple's new iPhone?" Feng Yiping asked.

Apple is about to launch the 3G version of the iPhone on June 1st. This is a real smartphone that allows iPhone users to follow their Facebook trends anytime and anywhere. Therefore, Feng Yiping is very concerned about the new version of the Facebook APP.

"A series of optimizations have been made," Zuckerberg assured.

"Well," Feng Yiping nodded and was about to continue when Wu Qian suddenly stood up and walked to him with the computer, "Yiping, you have to take a look at this,"

People in the conference room here in Silicon Valley looked at Wu Qian's appearance and thought to themselves, maybe it's something bad again.

But they soon discovered that such worries were completely unnecessary, because they saw that the smile was quickly spreading from the young boss's eyebrows to his entire face, "Hahaha", Feng Yiping slapped the table and laughed. Iron 666!
