Reinventing the Millennium.

Fang Zhuo returned to Shanghai, but he didn't express anything because a Penguin executive mentioned him.

As soon as he got home, he went to see Zhou Xin's daughter, Zhou Keke, to congratulate his friend on her little padded jacket, and gave her a little gold pendant that he personally picked in Lin'an.

Because Yu Lanyu needed to recuperate, Fang Zhuo and Su Wei declined the dinner, only to flee after Fang Zhuo accidentally made Zhou Keke cry.

Su Wei mentioned Penguin when she went back: "Mr. Fang, I see that there is almost a quarrel on Zhihu because of Penguin's micro-innovation. Why don't you go up and talk about this? Someone is calling Mr. Fang's name." "

"A vice president just mentioned me, so there's nothing to worry about." Fang Zhuo didn't take it seriously, "There's nothing to talk about, I can't beat it, I can't beat it, Penguin's registered account this year went straight to 6 million, and 2000 million online at the same time , who could have done it?"

In 2006, there were 6 million registered accounts and 2000 million online users at the same time, making it the undisputed overlord of instant messaging.

Relying on the huge traffic, that is, last month, the news traffic of Penguin Portal officially surpassed Sina, ranking first in the country, but the advertising revenue is only 1/4 of Sina.

But even so, a giant wielding a traffic weapon has already emerged.

Doing portals, creating space, launching e-commerce, building search... Penguin has more and more businesses, but all of them are doing well. With such performance, after Penguin announced its financial report this year, its Hong Kong stock market value exceeded 80 billion US dollars.

Comparable to it in the Internet industry is Baidu, which has a market value of more than 70 billion US dollars. With a series of excellent products such as Tieba, pictures, and news, it has risen fiercely.

Among the former Internet Three Musketeers, only Sina has a market value of about 60 billion US dollars, and NetEase and Sohu are both inferior.

The most important thing is that Penguin and Baidu still have huge room for imagination, while the exploration of portal websites with advertisements, games, and entertainment is much smoother.

Under such circumstances, Penguin's entry into Baidu's main search battlefield will be hindered, but it will certainly not cause any problems to attack the Xiaonei network of a start-up team.

The former QQ alumni used to face Renren (renamed after the acquisition of Xiaonei) in a defensive posture. The QQ alumni who are now online are in an offensive posture when the Xiaonei network is not stable. The timing and development of the two are completely different. .

Fang Zhuo didn't know what kind of strategy Penguin was using to socialize on campus this time. He only knew that Penguin was indeed too strong in this year's environment and market.

Too strong, not a subjective conjecture, but an objective description.

Who can win this thing in this PC era?
Su Wei looked at Mr. Fang, and asked with a smile: "Then what should I do? People still say that I want to know about it."

"Oh, don't worry about that. Zhihu needs deep cultivation of content, and Penguin's traffic advantage is weak in this area." Fang Zhuo shook his head, "They are not stupid, otherwise, maybe Goose Hu and alumni went online together .”

"Goose call? That's a good name." Su Wei smiled, "I'm not asking you to respond to that vice president, I just represent the not-so-large Zhihu users. It is always said that they have to make use of the advantages of traffic and users when they do projects, and you can understand it, saying that it is the survival of the fittest.”

Fang Zhuo thought for a moment: "As a vice president, what he said has his reasons. Of course, he must give full play to his advantages in making products."

Su Wei was a little surprised.

Fang Zhuo continued: "But I think, um, just talking about this between the two of us, as far as I think, for Pony, he might have to think about whether his company has a public domain after having huge traffic." properties of the platform."

"The Internet has always been developing very fast, so a large amount of traffic is a powerful weapon in many fields. It is debatable whether all places that make money have to use a violent attitude to intervene."

"For Pony, what he thinks and is responsible for is the overall strategy and direction. I also think about it from this perspective. If I have to talk to the vice president, we will talk to each other."

Su Wei smiled and said, "Do you know what Zhihu will say?"

Fang Zhuo waited for the next article.

"If you have it, you will definitely use it. Even if you say you don't need it, it's because you don't have it." Su Wei said, "I think this statement is quite closed."

Fang Zhuo was surprised: "Zhihu also used me as an example?"

"There are a few words imitating Vice President Tang's tone, 'Even if it's Mr. Fang, so what'." Su Wei shrugged, "I see that everyone wants to see your response besides discussing it."

Fang Zhuo smiled slightly: "I'm not narrow-minded. I'll wait for the pony to name me, or when I can beat Penguin before I speak."

Su Wei heard this, she was a pony just now, now she is a pony.

However, after all, Penguin has such a large wave of traffic, and anyone who changes it will have a headache.

Su Wei felt that there was nothing wrong with being cold-handed. After all, the identities were not equal. If Mr. Fang really wanted to comment on the affairs and strategies of another company, it would easily cause more and more disturbances.

A day later, there was no movement from Shencheng, and the sporadic interviews with reporters did not receive a response, but Wang Yan, the president of Sina who was far away in the capital, chatted gently about the recently hotly discussed penguin competition, and incidentally also said for his boss spoke.

Sina and Penguin compete directly in the portal business.

The interview Wang Yan accepted was exactly the feeling when he was asked about Penguin News traffic surpassing Sina: "Sina has the best news team in the country. With the diversified development of the Internet, we have never given up on this point. Instead, we have deepened and refined it. .”

"Traffic is certainly one aspect, but the depth and quality of news is also crucial. I have confidence in Sina."

"As for Mr. Tang asking Mr. Fang for advice on the logic of making products, I think Mr. Fang must understand what he said, but he may not understand what Mr. Fang does."

"Penguin is indeed a very powerful company. Next time Mr. Tang meets Mr. Fang, he can also ask how to combine traffic with the semiconductor business. I believe Mr. Fang may be more interested in this."

Wang Yan mentioned Bingxin, which is an area that Internet traffic cannot and does not want to touch.

Only in the afternoon, the response from Penguin Vice President Tang Mu came.

He gave a response: "Penguin is now the number one portal in China."

No matter what the Internet Three Musketeers or the first portal website to go public abroad, that is the past tense. Now is a new era, the era when Penguin surpassed Sina to become the first portal.

This is the objective reality, the reality that Mr. Wang is enough to hear such a sentence.

Tang Mu's concise response carried the domineering arrogance of the number one traffic giant, and the arrogance of being invincible even in multi-line battles.

We are number one, who are you?
