Luo Sheng certainly did not expect that because of his reasons, Alibaba was already impatient to launch the iPo listing one year in advance.

Although Mr. Ma’s opponents are calm and gentle, he is actually a little panicked. Blue Star Technology has been a long-standing battle and even Wall Street was defeated last year.

Anyone who encounters such a competitor will panic, but they cannot show it yet. Not only can they not show it, but they must also show it extremely calmly.

However, Mr. Ma’s analysis is indeed very reasonable. Luo Sheng really can’t focus all his energy on this part now. The family is big and the business is too big.

The three major strategies of Blue Star Technology alone are not easy. We have to make trouble with the "Snowman Plan" and the "Ladder Plan". Xingjiang International is one of the focus of Luo Sheng's main work.

Secondly, the new energy vehicle company project strategy of Costa 1, the domestic semiconductor full industrial chain strategy, the life science fund strategy, etc.

The family is so big that it is difficult to just sort out the strategy. Luo Sheng now almost ignores tactics unless it is a very important node, such as WeChat, which is related to the trend of the entire group company's mobile Internet era.

As for e-sports, if the people below come to him for reporting and making decisions about the e-sports business group, Luo Sheng will definitely scold the other party and then fire it on the spot.

...

As time goes by mid-March, Luo Sheng, who spends most of his time trying to rush into Star Arrow International and Pan Technology, pulled out of it and took his private plane south to Pengcheng to attend this year's IT Leaders Summit.

I stayed for two days this time and left.

"I'm sorry to tell you something. Someone finally won't buy it." Qin Weimu entered the hotel room. She brought a document and Luo Sheng arrived ten minutes earlier than her.

"This is the fax information Pang Lei just sent." As he said that, Qin Weimu handed the materials in his hand to Luo Sheng. After taking the materials, he did not rush to open them. Instead, he looked at her and asked curiously: "Who doesn't buy my account?"

Qin Weimu replied: "The one you named specifically is Zhang Yiming, the founder of Toutiao. I found that your vision is really unique. This person is indeed a bit different from other founders."

Luo Sheng smiled and did not explain this, and asked back: "What did you say?"

"I roughly looked at the information sent by Pang Lei, which contained a sentence from Zhang Yiming to summarize why he refused to invest in Blue Star Technology: I founded Toutiao because I didn't want to become an employee of Blue Star Technology. We hope to become a platform-level company that is of great value to society and has great significance. We mainly want to express to employees or the industry that Toutiao still has its own ambitions."

Speaking of this, Qin Weimu couldn't help but praise: "I don't think you're wrong. Zhang Yiming's statement is really admirable. Moreover, he not only rejected us, but also rejected Alibaba. It seems that as long as a giant invests, he refuses without hesitation."

Luo Sheng nodded without saying a word, opened the materials and began to browse the contents of Pang Lei's report, and Qin Weimu also went directly to the bathroom.

It has to be said that Luo Sheng does appreciate Zhang Yiming quite a bit. In the past ten years to this day, the domestic Internet market has basically been monopolized by "latb".

Baidu has basically fallen behind, Alibaba has achieved its rise, Tengxun makes a fortune in silence, and Bluestar Technology is the leader of China Internet Technology Company.

It is under such a market structure, especially since this year, almost all major startups cannot escape the fate of being acquired or invested by Bluestar Technology or Alibaba. While another startup company simply pursues the convenience of being under the big tree, with the main goal of hugging or taking sides.

Under this situation, Toutiao, founded by Zhang Yiming, was able to reject the olive branch sent by Blue Star Technology, which is equivalent to rejecting huge temptation and insisting on becoming a platform-level company's ambitious goal.

This is a matter of leaving behind many domestic entrepreneurs, and Zhang Yiming is obviously several ranks higher than them.

Qin Weimu came out of the bathroom and saw Luo Sheng still sitting on the sofa browsing the documents sent by Pang Lei. She came to sit down next to her and couldn't help but say:

"At the same time, he rejected giants like Blue Star Technology and Alibaba. I believe Zhang Yiming should clearly know that Toutiao, which is still in the incubation stage, will face cruel pursuit and interception by two giants and other competitors at the same time. This shows that his determination and courage to start a business are commendable."

Luo Sheng nodded and said, "It is indeed worthy of praise. From an objective perspective, this is also an incentive and encouragement for current entrepreneurs. If current Internet entrepreneurs have such a pattern and courage, then today's Internet in China may be able to break the monopoly pattern of 'latb' for ten years and present a new industry pattern."

Hearing this, Qin Weimu turned his head and looked at him and teased, "That's the case, but you definitely won't see the facts happening, right?"

Luo Sheng smiled and said, "No matter how much you appreciate, you will be more coded. Zhang Yiming rejected me, but I insisted on taking him down."

Qin Weimu: "How can you take it if the fallen flowers are intentional and flowing without mercy? If you take a step back, you are optimistic about the Toutiao model, just let Blue Star Technology form a development and operation team and copy one? For example, it is called Blue Star Toutiao or something, so Zhang Yiming has no chance at all."

Luo Sheng: "Direct copying is indeed the most worry-free and labor-saving. If you do this, Toutiao, which is in the incubation stage, will definitely not be able to make a comeback. But it is not good. As a result, Blue Star Technology is getting bigger and bigger. In the future, the Americans will hit half of the domestic Internet with just one blow. It can also distract you a little bit."

It is obvious that the one who can put pressure on Luo Sheng now is definitely not the competitors in the industry, but the evil American imperialism used national power.

As for the commercial competition among competitors, Luo Sheng never felt that there was a clear and real sense of crisis.

Qin Weimu asked, "Then how do you plan to deal with him?"

Hearing this, Luo Sheng smiled: "Simple, you arrange for the family fund to handle this matter. Didn't he reject the giant's olive branch? Then I won't take action directly. There are so many private equity fund institutions under the family fund, preferably with foreign capital. You can arrange to find someone who understands Internet thinking to talk to Zhang Yiming as a VC. His rejection of the giant's olive branch does not mean that he is not short of money."

Qin Weimu smiled knowingly and nodded: "Okay, I'll deal with it."

In this way, Zhang Yiming will have to recognize him, and if he doesn't recognize him, he will have to recognize him.

In today's Internet entrepreneurship field, "burning money" is a confusion that almost every startup company encounters every day, whether it is Blue Star Technology, Alibaba, or the o2o industry that is burning money ten years ago.

There is no shortage of large markets in the market that are made by burning money. Whoever burns more money will be able to squeeze out competitors.

The time when Toutiao was established was just the first anniversary in March.

As a startup company, it’s not okay to have no money. Zhang Yiming refused to recruit giants and had to go to other VC financing, otherwise he would have nothing to do when the trend passed.

In the end, there will only be another plot in the industry: the consequence of refusing to recruit giants is the end of Toutiao.

When he really reached this situation, Zhang Yiming, except for being proven to be an arrogant loser, was nothing.

Luo Sheng closed the materials and put them aside.

This matter has been decided. Today's Toutiao or ByteDance in the future is something that Luo Sheng must control. This company is a model of emerging giants emerging in the 4G network era.

In Luo Sheng's memory of his previous life, Toutiao or ByteDance is the only emerging Internet giant in the 4g era that rose to a scale of 100 billion US dollars, especially the company's short video business.

For example, TikTok made Tengx feel a huge crisis in China. ByteDance used this to leverage Tengx's social dominance in China. Internationally, TikTok's international version of TikTok made Xiaozha's Facebook unable to calm down, and even imitated anyone could not do it.

In this world, Bluestar Technology is equivalent to Facebook + half Teng Xun in the previous life. Luo Sheng will definitely not let this situation happen in this life. He doesn't want him to be as anxious as Teng Xun in the previous life. He is anxious and blocked various links to Toutiao's products on his social products to curb the other party's expansion speed.

Sometimes the replacement of Internet giants is a hot topic. It may be too late after you react.

This year, 2013 is the first year of the full take-off of the mobile Internet era. 4G networks have started commercial use last year, and this year, 4G networks have begun to be fully popularized.

The popularization of a new generation of network technology infrastructure will surely give birth to new industrial chains and new demands. Now Toutiao is born. Soon, the short video business will usher in a new stage. When the 4G tariff is reduced and the Internet speed is increased, short videos will rise rapidly. At the same time, the online live broadcast industry will also be very popular, and the e-sports industry will usher in the first round of explosion. Luo Sheng has completed the layout many years ago.

Bluestar Technology rose in the 2g network era and dominated the 3g network era. Luo Sheng’s goal is not only that. In the future, he will lead Bluestar Technology to dominate the 4g network era and ultimately monopolize the 5g network era in the next ten years.
