Global Monopoly of Technology

On the morning of October 12, Bluestar headquarters.

"Brother Luo, Mr. Yu is here."

Irene knocked on the door and entered Luo Sheng's office. Luo Sheng looked up and saw a man who followed Irene in, and immediately put down his work.

"Mr. Yu, I finally hoped for you. Haha, please take a seat, Xiao Ai, go and pour a cup of tea."

Yu Jun felt a little flattered, but he still admired this new employer, who was much younger than him. The lightning-fast rise of Bluestar was something that no one could do. There must be something unique about it.

Luo Sheng smiled happily: "I dug you over, I can say without exaggeration, the whiteness is absolutely debilitating, Mr. Yu has a keen insight and independent thinking ability on search engines and the Internet industry, and it is definitely my country's Internet A rare talent in the world.”

Yu Jun, who used to be a senior manager in Baidu, Luo Sheng entrusted a headhunting company to name him, and directly offered him an annual salary of 2 million, which was second only to Qin Weimu in Bluestar Technology Company so far.

If Luo Sheng doesn't dig him over from Baidu, he will probably contribute a god-level product to Baidu by the end of this year - Tieba.

This product played a pivotal role in the early days of whiteness development.

Not surprisingly, Google will proudly withdraw from the Greater China market, which has become the key to Baidu's final breakout in the domestic search engine market.

Most of the international search engine market has no chance. Google has formed an oligarchic position, but the domestic search engine market has no winners or losers. There is still a great opportunity to hate. longer and shorter.

After Yu Jun came to the company, he took him around the company for the first time. This walk touched him, especially Bai Lang, Su Yali, Lu Siming and more than 20 of them in the early days of Bluestar Technology. The members of the start-up team are all students who dropped out of school or fresh graduates to start a business with him. All of them are energetic and fierce. For Luo Sheng, each of them shows a certain feeling of blind trust.

Yes, it was this feeling, and Yu Jun was deeply touched by it.

He has always believed that doing things depends on people, and that the most important thing in doing things is that with people, he believes in the human factor very much.

Who do you do with, how you feel with people, whether you have integrity, what kind of character you can trust, whether you have friendship, and if the other party will take care of you, you will have the courage to jump.

Yu Jun saw Bluestar's young start-up team deeply. He has always believed that if he does not work alone but with a person, he must follow a person he really admires and work with him.

If you don't look down on your boss, it's hard to get results.

Yu Jun doesn't think there's anything wrong with working with a boss who is much younger than him like Luo Sheng. Ahri's current second-in-command, Mr. Cai, was willing to give up his annual salary of 5.8 million when he started a business with Boss Ma. With a salary of 500 yuan, Ali at that time really had nothing.

What's more, he was recruited by a rising Internet rookie at a high salary.

Luo Sheng brought Yu Jun to the development team of the "Cloud Song Project", which currently has only 30 people.

"Everyone, take a break from the work at hand."

Luo Sheng clapped his hands, then motioned everyone to look at Yu Jun, who came in with him, and said with a smile, "Feng Yi, this time the 'Yunge Search Project Team' I gave you this time dug up a heavyweight from Baidu. The characters will set up the stage with you, Mr. Yu Junyu, everyone is welcome!"

Feng Yi's eyes lit up as he applauded, and after a while, he smiled and said, "Boss, you're pulling money from the bottom of the pot, and Mr. Li has probably been yelling at him behind his back."

As soon as these words came out, the whole audience burst into laughter, and the atmosphere was very good. Yu Jun was also looking forward to the days of working together at Bluestar Technology.

This company is now known in the industry for its creativity,

Products such as photo sharing, tagging, likes, news flow, and privacy sliders on the Blue Space website have now become indispensable functional products for social platforms, causing Internet companies at home and abroad to imitate them.

For this alone, Yu Jun admired Luo Sheng very much from the bottom of his heart, because in the past, a new model appeared in the Internet industry in North America and it was verified and successful, and China will follow closely. , and then also succeeded.

Represented by the early portal Yahoo, there are four major portal websites in China, as well as search engines, instant messaging, etc., all of which came out first in North America, and only imitated in China.

But Luo Sheng has done what others have not done. He has made new models and new ideas. After great success in China, North America has begun to imitate them.

Especially the likes feature.

Now almost every website has launched the like function, which can be called a god-level function.

This function alone, Luo Sheng's contribution to the development of the Internet is enough to leave a place in the industry, and in the domestic Internet industry, it has broken the rules, from imitators to creators and imitators.

Luo Sheng's poaching of Yu Jun this time will give Feng Yi's team an even stronger effect. Feng Yi is a talented person who is a director of the company and has quite good technical development capabilities.

After a while, Luo Sheng picked up a pen and came to a large whiteboard hanging on the wall. Feng Yi, Yu Jun and other 31 project team members all looked at it.

"The company's shrinking engine project, I set a tone here, in the domestic search engine market, Google is not a concern, it must be unacceptable, and it is doomed to fail, and it is not Yahoo."

"So our No. 1 competitor is aiming for whiteness, and don't expect to be able to beat their opponents in the search engine market in a short period of time. This is a long competitive process, and I can even tolerate Yunge Search for three to five years. Consecutive losses, during which we fully focus on the product itself, the core benchmark is one - the perfect user experience."

Hearing Luo Sheng's words, Yu Jun couldn't help but take a deep breath. Does he really dare to allow losses for up to five years?

This……

Yu Jun decided in his heart that the biggest competitor of Whiteness was here, and it was definitely Yunge Search.

Luo Sheng wrote the English word [Inktodi] on the whiteboard, then looked back at everyone.

"Since we want to show our strength in the field of search, we have to understand our competitors. In the early days, Baidu, in short, is a company that sells technology and services for big websites. Its business model is to follow Inktodi's company. The company makes money by providing search technology services to hundreds of major portals in North America."

"However, during the millennium, the Internet industry bubble burst, countless websites were shut down, countless Internet companies went bankrupt, Inktodi's stock price shrank 243 times, and was eventually acquired by Yahoo. This industry crisis made Baidu realize that transformation is imminent, So we adjusted our strategy and switched to running our own search engine. At the same time, we changed our business model and started to target Overture in North America, which is the originator of [Bidding Ranking].”

"In 2001, Baidu pioneered the [Bidding Ranking] in China. This decision directly transformed its search technology into very considerable commercial returns, and the profit income was then oriented to the advertising business. for users.”

"So far, the whiteness has almost originated from the huge traffic obtained by its search engine products, and the revenue of its search advertising business has continued to enter high growth, and it is still growing at a high speed."

Yu Jun, who was sitting in the room, was surprised by David in his heart. He didn't expect Luo Sheng to tell the past and present of the previous owner in just a few words. core competitiveness and business model.

This made Yu Jun realize that Bluestar Technology seems to really want to compete with Baidu in the domestic search engine market, and his heart suddenly resonated. This is what he expected. The boss strongly supports the search engine. The engine project will definitely tilt a lot of resources, so the long-awaited post bar idea can be put into practice.
