Chapter 429: Zhou Hong 1, You Wait for Me

"360 really killed 3721."

"I'll go, 360 did he really do this?"

360 took 3721 cases as plug-in removal objects, which shocked countless people.

Especially those who knew that Zhou Hongyi was the founder of 3721, were stunned at the moment.

The front foot sells the 3721 to others, and the back foot makes a software to delete the 3721.

This is simply the strength of Yahoo!

"I finally understand why Zhou Hongyi is the boss."

"why?"

"Why else, someone who can do it with shameless means like this is definitely a genius."

"Okay, I'm a fan of 360 Strength."

"Well, just for Zhou Hongyi's shamelessness, I plan to use the 360."

Of course, even the three major antivirus software companies did not think of such a shameless method.

They had a rhythm before, thinking that Zhou Hongyi would not dare to mess with these plugin giants, let alone clean up 3721. But now they can see that Zhou Hongyi is not a human being, he can do anything.

This is not, they bring the rhythm not only did not affect the 360.

On the contrary, while 360 ​​was able to clear 3721, the download volume soared.

Many users want to try to use this shameless system security software.

Such market performance also makes the three major antivirus software extremely worried.

On the same day, the three major antivirus software companies held company meetings successively.

"Everyone, the 360 ​​market has grown significantly, and it will definitely affect our market in the future. How should we respond?"

Qiu Bojun, chairman of Kingsoft Corporation, said at the meeting.

"President, 360's method is too shameless, I believe that Yahoo can't let it go."

"This is Yahoo's business, and has nothing to do with us. Besides, it doesn't matter whether Yahoo and 360 fight, the important thing is that if we don't take some countermeasures, I'm afraid they will enter the antivirus market sooner or later."

Although 360 is a system security software, his current business is only to remove garbage and plug-ins.

He has not yet entered the antivirus market.

However, everyone can see that as long as 360 develops steadily, they will definitely enter this market in the future.

Antivirus is Jinshan's most important business, and Qiu Bojun attaches great importance to it.

"President, in fact, it's not just Zhou Hongyi who is doing 360, but also Huanyu Technology behind it."

"Yes, please, Huanyu Technology occupies a considerable part of the shares of 360 Security Guard."

"Alas, if Zou Tao had been reused, there would not have been such a problem."

This said.

Many people recalled the past.

If Xishanju reused Zou Tao before, then Zou Tao would not go to Huanyu Technology.

If Zou Tao didn't go to Huanyu Technology, Huanyu Technology naturally couldn't make so much money from games.

If Universal Technology had no money, it would be impossible to join forces with Zhou Hongyi.

If Universal Technology did not join hands with Zhou Hongyi, there would not be the current 360.

All of this seems to be related to letting Zou Tao go.

It's just that although he said so, Qiu Bojun snorted: "It's useless to say this, let's do something practical."

At that time, Jinshan was in the middle of a power struggle, and Zou Tao naturally became the object of sacrifice.

"President, I think we should launch Jinshan Assistant immediately."

Seeing that Qiu Bojun was displeased,

CTO said immediately.

The proposal was unanimously approved by all the members of the meeting.

As long as they launch a Kingsoft Assistant with similar functions to 360 Security Guard, they naturally don't have to worry about the threat of 360 Security Guard. Moreover, many senior executives in Jinshan believe that in terms of technology, they are more powerful than 360 security guards in Jinshan. The launch of Kingsoft Assistant will definitely be able to quickly grab the market of 360 security guards.

For this, Rising and Jiang Min also thought so.

Like Jinshan, Jiangmin has also developed a software called Jiangmin Assistant.

Before Rising, there was Rising Kaka, so there is no need to do it again.

But before, Rising Kaka Assistant was only a marginal product in Rising Company. It was a free software, and it didn't make much money, and the company didn't pay much attention to it. After this incident, they mentioned Rising Kaka's assistant to the same status as Rising Antivirus. Even if Ruixing Kaka assistants don't make money, they have to grab the market back.

...

"Mr. Zhou, are you 360 too shameless?"

"Mr. Xie, don't say that."

"What do you want me to say, you sell 3721 to us on the front foot, and you will kill 3721 on the back foot. Is there anyone doing this on the Internet?"

"Mr. Xie, we can't do anything either. Look, isn't this forced by the three major antivirus software companies? They said whether I dared to clear 3721. I think if I dare, I will clear it."

"Don't talk to me about this."

Xie Wen, president of Yahoo China, made a phone call to Zhou Hongyi.

Yes.

In the past few days, he almost exploded with anger.

He never imagined that Zhou Hongyi would do such a thing.

Of course, if the three major antivirus software companies did this, he wouldn't be so angry.

But the key point is that this bastard just took them nearly 1 billion RMB.

He has been on the Internet for so long, and he has never met such a shameless person.

Because of this, Yahoo headquarters was very angry and ordered Xie Wen to give the headquarters an explanation.

Explain, what can he explain?

Can he say that he didn't expect Zhou Hongyi to be so shameless?

"Mr. Xie, I can only apologize to you for this."

"Sorry, is it enough to be sorry? Zhou Hongyi, let me tell you, you are violating the competition agreement."

"Mr. Xie, it seems that you are mistaken. There is no competition between our 360 security guards and 3721."

"you……"

Generally, when a company acquires a company, it will sign a non-compete agreement with the company.

For example, when an instant messaging company is acquired, the CEO of this company can no longer engage in instant messaging within a certain period of time. At that time, when Yahoo acquired 3721, it also signed such an agreement with Zhou Hongyi. The agreement stipulates that Zhou Hongyi cannot participate in the content related to the 3721 field within the next three years.

Such agreements are normal.

After all, 3721 was done by Zhou Hongyi. If he went back and started another 3721, it would be a great threat to 3721.

But Zhou Hongyi's reply made Xie Wen angry.

That's right.

Zhou Hongyi did not violate the agreement.

They didn't get into the internet sphere related to 3721.

Nor did they compete with the 3721.

They just made a software to kill 3721.

Of course, the 360 ​​security guard is not just to kill 3721, he is to provide system security maintenance.

Destroying 3721 was just one of his businesses.

"Okay, Zhou Hongyi, you are cruel, you wait for me."

Knowing that Zhou Hongyi couldn't be embarrassed by the agreement, Xie Wen didn't say anything and hung up the phone.

"Ugh……"

"Headache."

Zhou Hongyi pressed his head and sat on the sofa: "Chen Yu, look, we offended Yahoo."

"If you offend, you will offend, and there are many companies offended by our Huanyu Technology."

"That said, but the other party is Yahoo."

"What happened to Yahoo? Although Yahoo is powerful, don't worry, he can't make it difficult for us."

Chen Yu is not worried about Yahoo at all.

Although Yahu looks very powerful now, its market value is also the first in the world's Internet.

But Yahoo's first water is too big.

Now he can maintain this first place, and in a few years, Yahoo's market value will shrink more and more.

As for why.

That's because Yahoo has never really had a core product.

As now, can you know what products Yahoo has?

He is at most a portal.

Who else can he threaten with a portal?

"The ones to worry about should be the three major antivirus software companies."

Yahoo aside, Chen Yu reminded Zhou Hongyi: "The technology of the three major antivirus software companies is better than ours."
