Chapter 973 Yangcheng R&D Center

Regarding the lawsuit, Li Dong was naturally joking.

Ma Huateng has said it himself, and he still has to give this little face.

As the few people walked towards the box, Li Dong said: "I will have someone cancel it later, but you can still consider the proposal I made just now, Brother Ma.

Now this society is like this, if you don't hype and publicize, others will not be interested.

You can see that our previous CF and DNF cooperated well, and a large number of users flooded in at once. Is this the reason? "

Ma Huateng laughed and said: "That's what I said, but in the end it still depends on the real strength."

"Our strength is not weak, what are we afraid of?"

Li Dong said something casually, but didn't continue to say more.

In fact, Xiao Ma is cautious, has a strong sense of crisis, and lacks a sense of security.

Li Dong thinks it doesn't matter to hype it up, but Xiao Ma is a little worried and doesn't care too much about it.

He didn't care, so Li Dong naturally stopped talking.

Several people entered the box, and as soon as they sat down, Brother Xiao Ma started to smoke for everyone.

He is very addicted to cigarettes, but he was embarrassed to smoke alone, so he let everyone smoke.

Several men took the cigarettes, and then smoked in a cloud of smoke.

Wu Yajun was the only woman in the private room. Seeing that everyone didn't ask her opinion, Wu Yajun laughed and said, "I said to you people, is it appropriate for a lady like me to smoke second-hand smoke?"

Xiao Ma and Wu Yajun are not very familiar, and they are also relatively thin-skinned.

Hearing this, he quickly extinguished the cigarette in his hand and apologized, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm so addicted to cigarettes, I can't hold back."

Others have long been accustomed to Wu Yajun's character. Yang Shaopeng laughed and said, "Hua Teng, you got the point wrong. What Yajun meant was that you gave everyone smoke, but you didn't send it to her, and looked down on her." Or what, right, Yajun, am I right?"

Wu Yajun rolled his eyes at him, and said angrily: "It's still Hua Teng who has the style of a gentleman. Dong Zi was also good before, but now he has learned from you."

Li Dong took the unlit cigarette and said aggrievedly: "Sister Wu, I haven't smoked yet, why is it my fault?"

"Hahaha……"

Everyone laughed, and the atmosphere that was a little strange just now became harmonious.

Some of the 6 people present were not very familiar with them.

Yang Shaopeng has a wide range of friends, and he is familiar with all of them, but he is just acquainted with Zhu Xinli, and he is similar to Ma Huateng.

As for Ma Huateng, he probably maintains the style of an IT nerd, but he is not very familiar with everyone, even Chen Kaixuan and Li Dongsheng, who are both in Guangdong Province.

In the IT industry, if you want to say that you are popular, you are probably an old horse.

This guy joins this association today, joins that association tomorrow, and makes his own association the day after tomorrow...

After coming down a few times, the giants and old horses in the business world are probably familiar with him.

In fact, Ali is not well-known at the moment, and he has not yet reached the top level, at most he is a first-line entrepreneur.

But even so, his connections are all over China. This guy is also an alternative to the Internet industry giants. But then again, he is not from this major, which is different from professionals like Ma Huateng and Li Yanhong.

After joking for a while, while waiting for the food to be served, Wu Yajun said, "Dongzi, affected by the financial crisis this year, business in the real estate industry is not easy.

You told your sister before that you planned to expand Dongyu's scale, and you also won the land in the capital a few years ago.

Are you still thinking about it now? "

Li Dong smiled and said: "Winter will always pass, and the financial crisis will not last forever. Besides, Longhu's life is not bad. I, a negative bourgeoisie, are not in a hurry. What are you in a hurry for?"

"Come on, you cry poor with us every time." Wu Yajun sneered.

Yang Shaopeng also laughed and said, "Dongzi, don't cry poorly with us. This year, the manufacturing and real estate industries have been hit the hardest, and even our shipping business has suffered.

Huiyuan, TCL, and Liby, including Longfor, can generally be counted in these two categories.

It is you and Hua Teng who are really living comfortably now,

I won't talk about it here, but someone who is determined to be the richest man.

Huateng's side is also terrible. Not long ago, Ali's stock price almost fell below the issue price, and Ma Yun mentioned Tencent while drinking.

Last year, Tencent's market value was only US$10 billion, but now it is nearly US$20 billion, directly doubling.

It's better to do the Internet, and money will be collected like a money printing machine. "

Tencent has not been too affected by the financial crisis this year. In June, its stock price directly broke through 70 Hong Kong dollars.

In 2007, Tencent had not reached HK$40.

Everyone else is falling, and the Hong Kong stock market has dropped a lot. Even Ali is miserable, but Tencent has an astonishing increase. No wonder everyone is envious.

As soon as the audience pointed their finger at him, Ma Huateng quickly said: "This is different, the market value is the market value, in fact, the stock market is like this.

And I think there may be changes in the Internet industry in the future, and it may not last forever. "

Brother Ma is absolutely serious about what he said, because this guy is now selling off his Tencent shares.

He has a particularly strong sense of crisis, and he likes to sell stocks whenever there is trouble.

However, his luck was not good, and every sell-off was the lowest point.

Now Tencent’s stock price is only around HK$70, and it will almost triple in another year.

But having said that, as the impact of the financial crisis has become more and more severe, few people can take it easy.

The money you get is the real money, and everyone knows this truth.

Everyone didn't say much about Brother Xiaoma's selling of stocks.

Although this is not a secret, most people still don't know it. Otherwise, even he, the founder, would start selling, and the confidence of stockholders would plummet.

Speaking of stocks, Li Dong couldn't help laughing and said: "I bought a lot of Tencent stocks in the past two years. When I bought them, they were around 16 yuan, and now they have exceeded 70 yuan.

After going back and forth, my 100 million has almost quadrupled now. Brother Ma, continue to work harder and let me earn more. "

As soon as these words came out, even Ma Huateng couldn't help but said, "You bought Tencent's stock?"

Li Dong smiled and said: "Yeah, double insurance, one day PP is killed by you, I still have a hope.

If QQ is down, I don't care about this stock anymore. "

"Ahem..."

Ma Huateng coughed dryly, and Wu Yajun laughed so hard that his stomach ached. He pointed at Li Dong and gave a thumbs up and said, "Dongzi, you are really good! Don't tell me, you also bought Ali's stock?"

"How can it be."

Li Dong quickly said: "I buy stocks, it depends on the person. I don't buy Ali's stocks because the old horse looks like he wants to beat me up.

You see, I bet you right, luckily I didn’t buy it, but if I really want to buy it, I can’t help but cry.

It’s still the power of Ma, I always think that Tencent is the company that does big things.

100 million becomes 400 million, and I will be given money by crossing the line of fire immediately, lying down to earn money, and if this continues, I will have no motivation to fight. "

Everyone burst out laughing, Ma Huateng was speechless, is this a compliment to me or everyone?

It's fine if you're against me, I'll help you make money here, I feel very wronged no matter what.

After being prodded by Li Dong's words, Xiao Ma gradually let go, jokingly said: "You Yuanfang Technology is listed, I will definitely not buy your stocks."

Everyone understands what this means. It is telling Li Dong that Tencent will kill them sooner or later, and the stocks will naturally be worthless.

Li Dong didn't mind either, and said with a smile: "If you don't buy it, you will lose. Besides, I went public early, and I will go public after Tencent and Ali are killed.

Think about it, at that time I became the number one on the domestic Internet before I went public, and when I went public, how many people rushed to give me money. "

Chen Kaixuan laughed loudly and said: "Dongzi still has a big heart, come on, don't say anything, let's have a drink first!"

It is rare for everyone to get together, almost all belong to the same level of characters.

Usually, what everyone faces are subordinates, government officials, or people who come to you with various purposes.

In front of outsiders, everyone has to be careful, and pay attention to propriety and identity at all times.

Now it's different, everyone can speak freely and do whatever they want.

This is also one of the reasons why business circles are so popular. It is a little bit to make connections, and it is also a little bit to relax.

People in the circle get together, chat a little, talk nonsense, and it doesn't matter.

When they got outside, they were the solemn and solemn boss and chairman.

With the rise in status, even Li Dong, who dared to speak, said less now.

Low status, no one cares, whatever you say.

However, if the status is high, any casual sentence may cause disputes and accidents. Of course, you can't just say it casually.

Pushing a cup to change a cup, calling friends, the atmosphere is getting stronger and stronger.

Li Dong and Ma Huateng sat next to each other and drank a few cups. Ma Huateng took the initiative to chat with Li Dong in private: "Li Dong, I have used the pea pods and browsers developed by Yuanfang several times recently. Let me see yours. It means that it seems to want to develop into mobile phone applications, am I right?"

Li Dong didn't hide it either, and he couldn't hide this kind of thing until now.

As soon as the iPhone 3G came out, China began to enter the 3G era, and anyone with a little foresight could predict that there would be a breakthrough in the mobile phone field in the next step.

Of course, at what stage of development, whether it can replace the PC terminal, everyone still dare not predict.

Li Dong pondered for a moment and said directly: "There is such an idea. On the PC side, the development of Yuanfang is one step behind.

I want to find a breakthrough, so I can only gamble on the future.

With the advent of the 3G era, some services that could not be realized in the past have the opportunity to be realized now.

Sooner or later, breakthroughs will be made on the mobile side, so let me test the waters first. "

Ma Huateng nodded slightly, thoughtfully.

At this moment, Tencent's focus is still on the PC side. Even if Li Dong said so, Ma Huateng didn't mean to waver.

Everyone is a pioneer in the industry, so it doesn't make sense to change his mind just because Li Dong said a word.

However, Li Dong was optimistic about the wireless business, which made Ma Huateng a little more concerned.

Next, we can look at the situation. Whether to change the strategic goal at that time depends on the actual situation.

Li Dong is willing to test the water, just to give everyone a demonstration.

Sometimes it is not the first person to eat crabs that will surely succeed. Many times, the market is changing, and often the first person to enter the market will die the fastest.

Besides, Tencent is not as good as it will be in the future, and many things have not opened up the market.

Even the game business, if you count it seriously, it was the first entry in 2008.

Tencent did not launch the famous browser business, video business, and application treasure in the future.

Even if he wanted to fight Li Dong now, it was too late.

Of course, Ma Huateng is not in a hurry, he has confidence, and the hundreds of millions of QQ users are his confidence.

It is not too late to enter after seeing the market clearly.

In his opinion, it is better to be steady than to change the strategic goals in a hurry.

The two chatted casually for a while, and Ma Huateng said again: "The Internet conference in September, will you go there then?"

"Internet Conference?"

Seeing Li Dong's ignorant face, Ma Huateng felt even more depressed. Does this guy care about Yuanfang Technology's business?

The annual Internet conference is quite meaningful for IT giants like them.

Different from those small and medium-sized enterprises, these giant enterprises can put forward some novel ideas and viewpoints at the conference.

When the time comes, they don't have to try it themselves, someone will naturally help them try it.

When small and medium-sized enterprises are successful, they can reap the fruits of victory.

Therefore, the Internet conference is actually an opportunity to sow seeds.

Every year, these industry giants will sow a batch of seeds, waiting for the next year or longer to harvest.

In this way, major giant companies can save a lot of energy and research and development costs.

Yuanfang Technology is now an IT giant anyway, but Li Dong didn't even pay attention to this.

Ma Huateng now doubts how Yuanfang Technology did it.

Seeing Ma Huateng's expression, Li Dong also said with some embarrassment: "I really don't care too much, in the past people didn't invite us, there's no way, I just pretend it's nothing.

I don't know if there will be one this year, but whether to go or not is the same thing.

If I'm not mistaken, the topics discussed this year must be cold winter, 3G and other topics, which are boring. "

Ma Huateng thought about it, and it seemed that he did too.

Just as he was about to speak, Li Dong changed the subject and said, "By the way, brother Ma, I heard that you have a research and development center here in Yangcheng?"

Ma Huateng nodded and said, "Yes, but it's not very big. They specialize in developing QQ mailboxes. It's on Pazhou Island. Why, are you interested?"

At this time, WeChat had not yet appeared, and the R&D team of QQ mailbox was not paid much attention.

Moreover, the R&D center has not been relocated to the TIT Creative Park. Zhang Xiaolong and dozens of people under his command are eating dirt in Pazhou.

It is said that it is a research and development center, but it is actually a bit of a prestige. It may be more appropriate to say that it is a distribution center.

In 2005, Tencent acquired Foxmail. As the founder, Zhang Xiaolong had no place to settle down. Finally, Tencent let Zhang Xiaolong bring a dozen people to Yangcheng to develop the QQ mailbox project.

If Zhang Xiaolong hadn't created WeChat later, I'm afraid he would have to live here for the elderly.

Li Dong smiled and said: "If Xiao Ma doesn't mind, I want to visit.

On the PP mailbox side, there has been no way to achieve breakthrough development. We are overwhelmed by Hotmail.

I heard that you are doing well now. I want to learn from it. Does Brother Ma think it is suitable? "

Internet companies are actually relatively open companies.

Inviting peers or even competitors to visit the company is sometimes a manifestation of self-confidence and inclusiveness.

Ma Yun has invited many colleagues to visit Ali, and Tencent is the same.

Hearing Li Dong's initiative to mention it, Ma Huateng immediately smiled and said: "What's wrong with this, next time I have a chance, I want to go to a far place to see, today you come to my place to learn scriptures, and I will go to your place later, you can't Hide and hide."

"absolute."

Li Dong laughed and said: "After all, we are still at a disadvantage in the world. We are all a family. Whether it is Tencent or Yuanfang's success, it is our victory."

These words are naturally beautiful words, and there is no problem with visiting, and some technical demonstrations are also no problem.

However, it is definitely impossible to display the core technology to the outside world.

Generally speaking, it is not bad to be able to see a rough idea. It is almost a dream to peep into the opponent's core business secrets from a visit.

Ma Huateng smiled, and continued: "But I'm afraid it's a bit late today, let's go tomorrow, I will accompany you to have a look tomorrow."

"Okay then, I'm going to trouble you."

"polite."

Brother Xiao Ma has a generous appearance, but in fact he really doesn't care.

After all, this is Yangcheng, not Shenzhen.

If Li Dong wants to visit the R&D center in Shenzhen, he may not agree to it, but Yangcheng only has a QQ mailbox project, so it doesn't matter.
