NOVEL NEXT Chapter 138
Although he was caught off guard, Li Yanhong was not one to admit defeat easily. Since you can expose my shortcomings and say that we are targeting your Youtuan.com and blocking Youtuan.com, then fine, since I have been scolded anyway, I will directly cut off the source of the problem and block the Weibo platform again, directly cutting off your traffic and seeing how you can still clamor.
Under Li Yanhong’s instructions, Qiandu Search soon stopped including Weibo website snapshots, and directly searched Weibo. The search results that popped up were Penguin Weibo, Xinlang Weibo, and Weibo of other companies.
Soon, the Weibo operation team discovered this problem, and after noticing the abnormal traffic, they immediately reported it to Ji Yunsheng, and then it reached Su Chengyang’s ears.
“Chairman, this Baidu is so abominable, even more abominable than Penguin.”
Ji Yunsheng said angrily.
Su Chengyang’s face was not good either. He didn’t expect Baidu to be so shameless that it even banned the link to Weibo. This is fucking cutting off the firewood from the bottom. Once Weibo falls, the consequences will be very serious, and even affect his layout of the entire Internet.
Mobile Internet is the future trend, but it will take several years for it to gradually mature. Before that, the Internet must not fail.
“Chairman, what should we do now? If this continues, the traffic on Weibo will drop sharply.”Ji Yunsheng said with a melancholy look.
It was the same dilemma that Youtuan.com encountered. These days, when looking for a website, people would enter Chinese characters in the search results, and rarely would they enter the Weibo URL directly.
Just as the two were discussing the meeting, the news had already spread outside.
“Wow, why can’t I find Weibo in Qiandu search?”
Someone asked in the Penguin QQ group.
“Me too”
“You think it could be that Baidu has banned Weibo?”
“It’s possible! Wasn’t that what happened with Youtuan.com before?”
“Wait a minute, I’ll go to Google and check.”
A minute later
“Wow, it really came true. It’s almost the same if you search for Weibo on Baidu. You can find it on Google search engine.”
“This is too abominable. It is completely unscrupulous and does not care about the experience of us users at all.”
“Damn it, I was skeptical about the rumors before, but now it’s completely confirmed. Don’t be so shameless, Qiandu. From today on, I will no longer use Qiandu products.”
“I recommend everyone to use Shenma Search, a very good search engine without any messy ads”…
“Alas, Shanhai is too miserable. Before, it was suppressed by Penguin, and now it is suppressed by Qiandu. It is really too difficult.”
“Needless to say, I support Shanhai, Qiandu, Penguin and other domestic Internet giants. These traitorous companies should be closed down.”
“Boycott Qiandu Search. If everyone uses Shenma Search and Google Search, it won’t be long before Qiandu Search goes out of business.”
“Hey, Weibo and Youtuan.com are in danger now.”……
Xinlang Company, Chairman’s Office
“”Good news, Mr. Cao.”
A man knocked on the door and walked into Cao Guowei’s room, saying excitedly,”I just got the news that Baidu has banned Shanhai’s Weibo business. Now, there are no results in the Baidu search. Now it’s all over the Internet.”
“Oh?”
Cao Guowei’s eyes flashed.
“What’s going on? Why did Baidu suddenly ban Weibo?”
“It should be the conflict between Youtuan.com and Qiandu.com. I heard that Youtuan.com exposed Qiandu’s secret operation, which attracted the support of countless netizens, while Qiandu, the other party, was cursed by netizens.”
“Then, Baidu might have been angry and blocked the Weibo link, which resulted in the inability to find the Weibo URL through Baidu search. Cao Guowei’s assistant replied:
“Thousands of degrees~~ Hehe.”
Cao Guowei raised his eyes slightly, with a hint of sarcasm and ridicule on his face.
“Li Yanhong is getting more and more crazy. His actions can indeed serve as a warning to others, but you have to know that everything has two sides. His actions are equivalent to completely confirming their previous secret operations.”
The assistant nodded and said,”Yes, but this incident must be a big blow to Weibo.”
Cao Guowei shook his neck, stood up from the chair, walked slowly a few steps, and said with a faint smile,”This incident is good for us. Notify them and find Qiandu to cooperate with us so that the keyword Weibo will rank us first.”
“Also, please help me make an appointment with Li Yanhong and tell him I have something to discuss with him.”
“”Okay, Chairman.”
The assistant nodded and turned around and left quickly.
At the same time,
Penguin was also holding an executive meeting to discuss the conflict between Qiandu and Shanhai, and whether it could profit from it.
“Pony, I think this is a good thing.”
“Oh?” Xiao Ma looked at the person who spoke.
Zeng Liqing smiled and said,”Now Shanhai’s two important projects, the group buying business and the Weibo business, have suffered setbacks.”
“There is no way to recover in a short time.”
“I think we can take this opportunity to take back the market share lost by Weibo and discuss cooperation with Baidu.”
“In addition, now that Qiandu Search has been criticized by netizens, we can let our search product (Sousou) stand out and support Weibo and Youtuan.com, so as to win the favor of netizens and further expand Soso’s share in the search market.”
“In a word, when two tigers fight, one of them will be injured. What we need to do is to develop ourselves in the chaos.”
“Mr. Zeng is right.”
Ren Yuxin agreed with Zeng Liqing’s opinion, and then he said:”I think we can add fuel to the fire and make the fight between the two sides as fierce as possible.”
“In this way, we can reap the benefits.”
Then, the rest of the people also expressed their opinions.
To sum up, the more fierce the fight between the two sides, the better.
And Xiao Ma Ge also meant this.
Other domestic Internet companies also have their own calculations, and they are all thinking about how to maximize their own interests in this fight between the two tigers.
Yanjing, Qihoo Company.
First floor!
Looking at the young man getting off the car, the red-clothed Zhou Jiaozhu’s eyes flashed a gleam, and then he showed his signature smile and took two steps forward:”Mr. Su, welcome”
“Mr. Zhou, please forgive me for bothering you.”
Su Chengyang stretched out his hand and shook hands with the other party.
“Mr. Su, you are too polite. You are a celebrity in our Internet industry. It is an honor for our 360 company to have you come to visit us!”
“Please come in~~”
The red-clothed leader Zhou smiled and made a gesture of invitation.
At Zhou Hongwei’s invitation, Su Chengyang and his party entered Qihoo Technology Company and then began to tour it.
When they learned that the person next to their boss was the boss of Shanhai Group, a billionaire worth tens of billions, the whole Qihoo company was in an uproar. The male employees all looked at the handsome guy who was younger than themselves with admiration, and the female employees, after seeing the real Su Chengyang, were all in love and wanted to stick to him.
Zhou Hongwei, who saw all this, was a little jealous and teased,”Boss Su is really charming. When you come, the whole Qihoo company is boiling.””
·· ·········Request flowers· ········
·· ·········Request flowers· ········
“Mr. Zhou said jokingly.
Su Chengyang smiled back.
The two sat down in the reception room.
“Mr. Su, you must have something to talk to me about this time, right?”
After the polite greetings, they got down to business.
Su Chengyang nodded and smiled,”There is indeed something I want to discuss with Mr. Zhou.”
“Oh?”
Zhou Hongwei said with a smile:”I wonder what Mr. Su wants to talk about.”
Su Chengyang put away the smile on his face and said seriously:”Mr. Zhou, I’m sure you have heard about our Shanhai and Qiandu’s affairs.”
Such a big thing, Zhou Hongwei must have heard about it.
“Indeed, I have heard”
“This time I came mainly to discuss cooperation with Mr. Zhou”
“Shanhai has launched ‘Shenma Search’. I hope to set it as the default search in 360 Browser. In return, Shanhai is willing to pay a considerable fee.
This is Su Chengyang’s counterattack against Qiandu.
In the PC Internet era, browsers and URL navigation are a core entry point.
……… 0
……… 0
Especially the website navigation.
In the past few years, hao123 website navigation brought a lot of traffic to Qiandu, and Qiandu spent a lot of money to buy it in 2004, spending 50 million and part of Qiandu’s stock.
A very simple website, but it cost so much money to buy it, from which we can see the importance of website navigation.
As for 360 website navigation, with the rise of 360 browser, its website navigation market share has increased rapidly. If its default search bar can be set to Shenma search, it will greatly help to increase Shenma search’s market share. The fake drugs collected before the explosion are enough for Qiandu to drink a pot.
After hearing Su Chengyang’s words, Zhou Hongwei’s eyes flashed with a gleam of light. He also understood the other party’s intention.
Thanks to the market share of 360 browser, 360 website navigation has about 50 to 60 million daily users. If Shenma search takes this market, it is really possible to compete with Qiandu.
But in this matter, he is very happy to help Su Chengyang.
Now the input box above 360 website navigation defaults to Qiandu.
Unfortunately, Qiandu is extremely arrogant and thinks it is the leader in domestic search. It does not take 360 URL navigation seriously at all, and acts as if it doesn’t care about setting it up. This makes Qihoo very upset, but there is nothing they can do.
Who said that there is only one search company in China, Qiandu?
It can’t be said that there is only one. Penguin has launched Soso, but its market share is very small.
Moreover, Qihoo and Penguin have business competition.
It is impossible to cooperate with Penguin.
Although he is willing to cooperate with Su Chengyang, Zhou Hongwei wants more.
“Mr. Su, I personally agree with this cooperation.”
“But I think this cooperation is too thin.”Zhou Hongwei said
“Oh?”
Su Chengyang’s eyes sparkled with ripples, and then he looked at Zhou Hongwei with a smile:”I wonder what Mr. Zhou thinks.”
“I wonder if Weibo has any financing plans?”
After hearing this,
Su Chengyang understood instantly.
It seems that this is targeting Weibo.
As the saying goes, the enemy of my enemy is also my friend.
And Weibo is in his plan, and it will indeed go public.
Since it is going public, it will definitely need financing.
It is not a bad idea to cooperate with 360. The premise is that 360 does not develop its own search engine. Er Er.
