Reborn since 1993

Chapter 168: Driving the tiger and swallowing the wolf
The establishment of Tianya.com and the acquisition of Pinyin Input Method were not publicized by Dongling Hi-tech. Now, Dongling Hi-tech can be said to be a focus company in the domestic technology industry, and I don’t know how many people are watching.

If there is a clamor all over the world that Tanglin Hi-tech will enter the Internet industry, then maybe a group of companies will follow immediately. They don't care what the Internet is and only focus on Tanglin Hi-tech.

From mice to electronic pet machines to digital cordless phones, there are many companies doing it. Although they don’t make as much money as Tanglin Hi-tech, they still make money. Even now, many big companies are copying Donglin Hi-tech. As a result, Donglin Hi-Tech has become a benchmark in the technology industry in China!

Tianya.com has not yet been built, and the pinyin input method has not been improved. If you start shouting at this time, I am afraid that a bunch of imitators will appear, and Li Dongling's plan for Dongling Hi-Tech will also be disrupted.

Tianya.com in Yanjing continues to recruit people. Many programmers in the software industry have received invitations from Tianya.com. Guo Jingyun, the manager of the Internet Division of Dongling Hi-Tech who has just taken office, is also the first general manager of Tianya.com. , is constantly traveling between Yanjing and Hanxi.

……

"Welcome to America!"

When Wu Xinyi and Lu Wenhua took the flight and arrived in New York, there were already people waiting there.

"I'm Zhou Hualiang. The headquarters has already called me. I will be responsible for your trip to America. If you have any requests, just ask. If you can, I will definitely help!"

Zhou Hualiang, who had been transformed from the head of the Tanglin Hi-Tech America office to the general manager of Tanglin Hi-Tech America and North America, stretched out his hand to Wu Xinyi and Wu Xinyi with a smile on his face.

In an extended Lincoln car, Zhou Hualiang said to Wu Xinyi and Lu Wenhua. When Wu Xinyi heard this, he also breathed a sigh of relief. This is the advantage of having someone to receive them. Everything has been arranged and they don't have to run around anymore.

Zhou Hualiang is now a guest of many telecom operators in America. Many telecom operators want to cooperate with Shenzhou, Coolpad and Simon!
At the headquarters of Dongling High-Tech, Zhou Hualiang is also highly regarded. He has now become the person in charge of Donglin High-tech in North America, and is in charge of the sales of many products such as Silver Sable Mouse and Shenzhou Phone in North America.

For example, Thomas, the head of Siemens Digital Cordless Phone America, was kicked out directly, while Zhou Hualiang, the head of Shenzhou in America, suddenly transformed and became a "well-known" manager of America!

When Coca-Cola and Pepsi-Cola were killing everyone in the mainland, Jianlibao dared to propose a counterattack on their home base, which was indeed courageous enough. However, tens of millions of dollars were spent, but it did not have much effect. Wu Xinyi and Lu Wenhua heard this and felt more and more, It’s not easy for Tanglin Hi-Tech overseas.

The figure of the Empire State Building disappeared from the car window. Zhou Hualiang spread his hands and said, "Americans only recognize Coca-Cola and Pepsi-Cola drinks!"

"I have already made an appointment with Mesipu and Yahoo. I will send someone to drive you two there tomorrow!"

Siemens' digital cordless phone was defeated in America. It was not just a war, it also changed the fate of countless people.

Li Dongling and Dongling High-tech Headquarters proposed the plan to join forces with Atlantic Bell and other telecom operators to provide mobile phones with prepaid phone bills. However, it was Zhou Hualiang who implemented the plan. This was enough. He also became the hero of defeating Siemens in one fell swoop. One of America's senior professional managers.

Wu Xinyi also looked over after hearing this, and indeed saw the Jianlibao brand. Jianlibao had arrived in America, and they had never heard of it before.

Mentioning this, Zhou Hualiang had a smile on his face, "Now the sales volume has dropped a bit compared to the peak period, but it is still maintaining sales of more than 500,000 units in a single day!
We are moving forward to cooperate with more retail channels, especially Coolpad and Shenzhou, which promote mid-to-high-end brands! "

Comparing the experience of Jianlibao overseas, you can understand the situation of Dongling Hi-tech Demon overseas. Surrounded by a group of powerful enemies, Dongling Hi-Tech fought bloody battles alone to pave a way for those who came after...

"It is indeed Jianlibao. This beverage company is very courageous. Four years ago, the head of Jianlibao bought the 26th floor of the Empire State Building as Jianlibao's office building in America.

The New York Times and more than a hundred television, radio, and newspapers in America have reported on the news about Oriental Magic Water. Jianlibao’s advertising in America in recent years has exceeded tens of millions of dollars, but..."

When the car passed by the Empire State Building in New York, Lu Wenhua saw the billboard and couldn't help being surprised, "Is that Jianlibao?!"

Patting the leather seat under him, he looked at Zhou Hualiang, who was in a suit and leather shoes. He saw in the media that Shenzhou and Coolpad phones were very popular in America, but he didn't know the specific situation. Wu Xinyi curiously asked Zhou Hualiang asked, "How is the sales volume of Shenzhou Phone in America now?"

The high-rise buildings lining the streets of New York kept flashing by outside the car window. It was their first time in New York, so the two of them were quite curious about this place.

Instead of enjoying the bustling scene in New York, Wu Xinyi and Lu Wenhua went out separately early the next morning. Wu Xinyi was going to Mesip, while Lu Wenhua was going to Silicon Valley.

"not bad!"

Lu Wenhua's schedule is much busier than that of Wu Xinyi. Not only Yahoo, he also has to inspect several companies this time.

"This is Yahoo?!"

After arriving in St. Clark, California, after some inquiring, Lu Wenhua found the location of Yahoo. The office was very small, with only a few employees inside. Seeing this scene, Lu Wenhua became more and more unsure. For a place like this, it would take three people to destroy it. One hundred thousand dollars? !
In China, 300,000 US dollars can buy a building, but this is Li Dongling's request, so Lu Wenhua can only bite the bullet and go in. After entering, Lu Wenhua saw that the people inside were all very young and, most importantly, full of energy. Although they were very busy, they all had smiles on their faces and seemed to recognize the work they were doing.

"Are you looking for Jerry?"

Seeing Lu Wenhua's Asian face, the person who was typing on the keyboard on a computer looked up. After seeing Lu Wenhua, it was natural to think that he was here to find Yang Zhiyuan. After all, Yang Zhiyuan is the only Chinese at Yahoo now.

Then the man shouted towards a small office with an open door in the back, "Boss, someone is looking for you!"

After the words fell, a man with glasses and a somewhat unkempt appearance walked out of the office and looked at Lu Wenhua doubtfully.

"I am Lu Wenhua from Zhixing Foundation!"

Taking Lu Wenhua's business card and looking at it, Yang Zhiyuan couldn't help but said in surprise, "Are you from the mainland?"

"Yes!"

After Yang Zhiyuan introduced Lu Wenhua into the office, he looked at the business card and said to Lu Wenhua in Mandarin, "I wonder what Manager Lu wants to do here this time?!"

"Our Zhixing Foundation, our partner in America, recommended Yahoo to us. They believe that Yahoo is a company with great potential!"

Hearing this, Yang Zhiyuan became even more surprised, "You want to invest in Yahoo?!"

It is true that there is an Internet craze in Silicon Valley right now, but Netscape has not yet gone public, and the craze has not reached the point of surging. Everyone, including Netscape, is still looking for investors, and the Zhixing Foundation suddenly came to the door. , which was somewhat beyond Yang Zhiyuan’s expectations.

When someone came to invest, Yang Zhiyuan couldn't help but smile on his face, pushed up his glasses on the bridge of his nose, and then said helplessly, "It's a pity that you guys are a step too late!"

"What?!" This time it was Lu Wenhua's turn to be surprised.

Yang Zhiyuan did not hide anything from Lu Wenhua. This matter will soon spread in Silicon Valley. It will definitely be a sensational event in Silicon Valley. "Yahoo is negotiating with Sequoia Investment, and Sequoia Investment will make an angel round investment in Yahoo!"

It is not difficult to choose between Sequoia Capital and Zhixing Foundation. Sequoia Ventures has invested in many well-known companies such as Apple and Cisco. Venture capital invests not only dollars, but also connections, resources, Reputation, etc. Sequoia Investment is much more famous in America than Zhixing Foundation.

Lu Wenhua was a little stunned. He didn't expect that besides him, there would be people rushing to send money to Yahoo in vain.

Humans are a very strange creature. It's like buying a piece of rags. When you are the only one buying it, you feel like you have been taken advantage of. But if there are others buying it, and they are rushing to buy it while earning money, you will feel that you have been taken advantage of. , the rags in his hands seem to be valuable things!
Of course Lu Wenhua, a finance professional who is famous for Sequoia Investments, has heard of it. When he heard that Sequoia Investments was also investing in Yahoo, he immediately felt that Li Dongling really had a keen eye for discerning pearls. He also felt that Yahoo might really be a valuable commodity. .

Compared with Sequoia Investment, Zhixing Foundation has no advantages, or on the surface, no advantages at all.

At this time, Yang Zhiyuan had already begun to prepare to see off customers. Yahoo had just been established for more than a month, which was the busiest time. It was also a critical moment for Sequoia Investment. He had to continuously improve the Yahoo website.

“I think that when Yahoo accepted Sequoia’s investment, it shouldn’t reject the Zhixing Foundation!”

Lu Wenhua said to Yang Zhiyuan, ready to tell the conditions that Li Dongling had prepared for Yahoo before the future.

"Perhaps Yahoo should listen to our terms first!"

Yang Zhiyuan was immediately attracted by Lu Wenhua, "The founder of the Zhixing Foundation and the founder of Shenzhou Telephone's parent company, Dongling Hi-Tech, Mr. Li Dongling!"

"Shenzhou?!"

"Li Dongling, I have heard his name before. His duel with Microsoft was very exciting. He was the first man to make Microsoft bow in so many years in the technology industry!"

Mentioning Donglin Hi-Tech and Li Dongling, Yang Zhiyuan's eyes suddenly lit up. Li Dongling's name is still well-known in America. At least people in America's technology circles immediately think of Dongling when mentioning the people who made Microsoft bow its head and lose the lawsuit. Come to Hi-tech.
