Chapter 1067 Hang Lung Invincible, Yi Xin finally enters the arena (4k)
"Mr. Fang, Penguin sued 360 for unfair competition. Xu Chenye stood up and said that Penguin welcomes fair competition."
"Mr. Fang, Penguin's official website issued a statement, taking the needs of users as its own responsibility."
"Mr. Fang, 360's Mr. Zhou called and wants to visit the company soon."
"President Fang, it is said that Shen Nanpeng of Sequoia has called both sides a lot, trying to mediate the conflict between them."
Liu Zonghong stood in the President's Office of Hang Lung 23, reporting the latest news to the boss, but Mr. Fang kept staring out the window thoughtfully, and did not respond to any news.
After a long time, Liu Zonghong heard Mr. Fang's question.
"Xiao Liu, what do you think the existence of hippopotamus means?"
Liu Zonghong's thoughts were all immersed in the recent massive 3Q battle. He thought that Fang would always have good words, but when he was asked such a question suddenly, he felt his brain was shaken.
River, hippopotamus?
He thought about it for a long time but there was no answer. Hippo, is the meaning of hippo's existence to embarrass me, Liu Zonghong?
"It's meaningless for Mr. Zhou to come to Yike." Fang Zhuo took a sip of tea, "Whether he comes or not, Yixin will make a move. It's a waste of time to come from the capital. Why don't you talk to Penguin more."
Liu Zonghong's heart was shocked, and he couldn't help asking: "Mr. Fang, is the time for Yixin to go online?"
Fang Zhuo shook his head, then nodded again: "You can go online at any time."
Liu Zonghong knew, but was still waiting.
Today's competitive situation is already very intense, can it become more intense?
"Mr. Shen is quite enthusiastic. The public opinion is really raging and very lively." Fang Zhuo thought for a while, "Mr. Zhou wants to come to Yike, so make an appointment to come, and make an appointment until the last day of the month."
There are still 9 days before the end of the month, which was originally the launch time set by Yixin.
Liu Zonghong made a silent note, seeing that Mr. Fang walked out of the office without any other instructions.
Things have been busy recently, not only Yike, but Bingxin also has a lot of things to coordinate.
At night, Liu Zonghong just lay down on the bed and closed his eyes to sleep, when he suddenly sat up and scratched his head.
What is the meaning of the existence of hippopotamus! ! !
……
In August, Penguin launched its first assault on the field of Internet security. At that time, 8's counterattack was limited to the product level.
No one expected that after a month, 360 would be so irritable under the leadership of the head Zhou Hongyi.
In the past, the style of Penguin was not without discussion, including Yi Ke also had a big fight with Penguin on Zhihu, but in terms of attracting attention, no one can match this time.
Penguin launched a lawsuit, and 360 also launched a countersuit.
But these all take time.
Some people think that this matter will subside soon, and eventually turn into a tug-of-war of lawsuits, including a tense atmosphere inside 360.
There is a lot of public opinion, and the name-calling of the privacy protector is also very cool, but the installed capacity of the company is actually declining.
Since the competition has become fierce, Penguin has not concealed it at all. Pop-up windows, upgrades, and promotions have flooded the market segment of the Internet security field like waves.
On September 9, Zhou Hongyi held a management meeting in the company.
The atmosphere in the conference room was chilling, and everyone felt strong pressure.
However, the more Zhou Hongyi was at this time, the more sonorous it became.
"Penguins are going to beat 360 to the point of destruction, we can't hide!"
"Being willing to cut yourself to pieces, dare to pull the emperor off his horse!"
"Penguins want to use their QQ traffic to expel us from users' computers, so let's make a function that QQ users like!"
"Let us 360 to escort QQ!"
Zhou Hongyi demonstrated on the spot the software developed by the engineers in the villa - 360 Koukou Bodyguard, which has the function of blocking QQ software advertisements and pop-up windows.
And, it also has a special function, as long as the user repairs the computer under the prompt, 360 security guards will be used to replace the QQ computer housekeeper during the system reinstallation process, and the friend relationship chain of QQ users will be backed up by 360, and the user relationship will be saved. Import 360.
What is the core of communication software?Isn't it the user relationship between each other?
Qihoo 360 engineers closed the development for 3 weeks in the villa in Huairou, and created such a weapon against QQ.
In the conference room, some executives who had just learned about it looked at each other in blank dismay. This kind of software...
Well, it is indeed possible to tear another layer after tearing the face...
"We'll post it tonight. Let's see if users like it or not." Zhou Hongyi announced, "Penguin wants to use its communication traffic to defeat us? Then we'll defeat its communication too, and I'll apply for it the day after tomorrow." Find Mr. Fang of Yike in the city to see if he is interested in the user relationship of QQ, and whether he dares to make a chat tool that can import these user relationships."
This was Zhou Hongyi's ultimate plan to bring down the emperor.
Only giants can fight giants!
Looking at the other three domestic giants YBA, the relationship between Yike and Penguin is the most tense, and the relationship between 360 and Baidu and Ali is not good, so there is no choice.
Moreover, the Yike Department has been rumored to be making computer communication software in the past, and this time the unbelievers are not tempted.
As long as Yi Kela can be put into the water, no matter what the final result is, 360 pressure will relieve itself.
What Koukou bodyguards can get is a hot potato, but Fang always has a character of picking chestnuts from the fire, which is just right for him.
Zhou Hongyi used to be a partner of IDG. This time, he plans to ask "suspected outdated" Xiong Xiaoge, "new thigh hugger" Lei Jun and others to persuade Mr. Fang to end.
At the end of the meeting, a group of people were either nervous, dazed or excited, preparing to kill the penguin.
When Zhou Hongyi returned to the office, his first phone call was to Xiong Xiaoge, and he explained clearly the upcoming software of 360 and the stakes in it.
"This..." Xiong Xiaoge hesitated after listening to Mr. Zhou's words. Yi Ke will indeed end up doing communication, but this is not the same thing as 360.
He said tactfully: "Mr. Zhou, are you making too much public opinion this time? Isn't it too risky for you to back up the user data over there?"
Penguin is a giant with a market value of 300 billion US dollars.
What is a giant?
It's not just a reflection of the market value, just like Yike's intangible influence in Shanghai, which involves all aspects. Mr. Zhou's doing this is indeed going straight to Huanglong, but Penguin can't do his best immediately.
Zhou Hongyi said firmly: "Mr. Xiong, you don't need to persuade me. Even if I am a pioneer for the king this time, I will do it to the end! Mr. Xiong, let's go to Yike together the day after tomorrow!"
Hearing this, Xiong Xiaoge thought, Mr. Zhou, I know you are in a hurry, but don't worry, you may already be driving.
He coughed, thinking about Yi Xin who was secretly preparing by Yi Ke, and still said euphemistically: "Mr. Zhou, in this way, don't go online for that bodyguard of yours, wait a moment, I will communicate with Mr. Fang, See what he thinks."
Xiong Xiaoge uses Yixin PP every day. He knows that Fang is always waiting, but he doesn't know how long Fang will wait. However, he knows that as long as Yixin goes online, the crisis of 360 will be alleviated this time.
However, once the Koukou Bodyguard is launched, things will become more difficult to control.
Listening to the procrastination on the phone, Zhou Hongyi frowned, and asked directly: "Mr. Xiong, are you unwilling to help? At a time like this, just say it straight."
"How come? Mr. Zhou, I also voted for 360, can I not want to see 360? But I think, don't rush, we can wait and see." Xiong Xiaoge couldn't reveal Yi Ke's layout, but could only suffer Heartbroken, he paused again before saying with difficulty, "Even if you see him, it may not be a good or a bad thing."
Zhou Hongyi slashed into his head, and sighed: "Mr. Xiong, the arrow is on the string, I have no way to retreat, and there is no way to wait."
He took the initiative to hang up the phone, standing upright for his inadequacy and conspiracy!
Koukou's bodyguard must be online. How could he be able to convince him with just his mouth when he went to meet Mr. Fang the day after tomorrow?
The user data pulled out by the software is the real bargaining chip. Indeed, this method may be a bit rogue, but who will break through the bottom line of this competition first?
When it comes to rogue software, Zhou Hongyi has never convinced anyone.
He was stunned for a while, and he has already started doing 360, why bother to use hooligan methods to force him?
In that case, come out, buckle the bodyguard!
The phone calls in the office continued, and Koukou's bodyguard's online actions continued.
At 9 o'clock in the evening, 360 security guards on the computer side issued a pop-up window reminder and launched a security tool called "Koukou Bodyguard", which aims to comprehensively protect the safety of QQ users, including preventing privacy leakage, preventing Trojans from stealing accounts, and removing pop-up advertisements and other functions.
Moreover, "Koukou Bodyguard" does not modify any QQ settings by default, and all functions must be triggered by the user's active choice, and can be activated and restored at any time.
Among other things, the removal of advertisements really hit the hearts of the majority of users.
360, as a dark horse in the rise of computer clients, also has an installed capacity of hundreds of millions. This pop-up window is aimed at the pain point of spying on computer privacy that has been questioned in recent days, and provides the functions that users most want... …
In addition, such an intuitive battle between the two major manufacturers on the computer side has become something users know well.
Just 27 hours after the software was launched on the evening of the 4th, the download volume of Koukou Bodyguard exceeded 100 million, and an average of 40 independent downloads and installations per second, which has set a new download record for new software releases on the Internet!
Penguin hasn't responded yet, but Zhou Hongyi heaved a sigh of relief first. At least the trick of buttoning up the bodyguard has worked. Users really hate pop-up windows, advertisements and other behaviors, which is the opposite of their past self. most correct direction.
At two o'clock in the morning, Penguin officials finally made a move and issued a solemn statement with strong words, reprimanding "Koukou Bodyguard" for destroying many functions of its own software through plug-in means, seriously affecting the security and complete service of the software, and saying "We will resolutely take all necessary measures" to stop the illegal activities of "Koukou bodyguards".
However, this statement did not affect the enthusiasm of users.
When the night passed and the day came, the installation speed of Koukou Bodyguard reached a new high. At the same time, Qi Xiangdong, the president of 360, also officially denied Penguin's accusation, saying that "Koukou Bodyguard is implemented using Microsoft's open program interface, which is in line with the software industry's norms. And common practice, not only will not break the software, but also make it safer and more usable."
I don't know if it's broken or not, but users seem to be choosing with their feet.
从27日晚上9点到29日晚上9点，整整48小时过去，扣扣保镖的下载量突破1300万，并且还在迅速增加！
Judging from this situation, the majority of users like to buckle bodyguards.
However, penguins don't like it.
In addition to the great impact of blocking advertisements and pop-up windows on advertising revenue, they discovered the "back door" left by 360, and found that 360 was backing up and importing the friendship data of its own users.
What does 360 want these data for?What else can it do!
If this continues, within a week, the data of Penguin's hundreds of millions of active users will be intercepted!
Ma Huateng dropped his glass at an internal meeting. He neither expected that the security software would be so rogue, nor did he expect that the attack on the Internet security field would reach such a level.
But it has reached this point, 360's behavior is absolutely intolerable!
Penguins in action.
On September 9, at 30 o'clock in the morning, Penguin popped up and sent a "letter to users". The words were sincere and the decision was difficult, but the meaning was also very straightforward. All users should choose one of the two.
Pick me or pick it?
Goose or 3?
No one, including Zhou Hongyi himself, would have thought that Penguin's way of reciprocating to the bodyguards would be so decisive. This is also spectacular in the history of the Internet!
For a while, public opinion was boiling, users jumped, and the penguin was too domineering!
However, the user said so, but the choice at hand was very honest. Compared with replacing many security software, Penguin's communication software is irreplaceable, so we can only feel sorry for 360 first.
From 8:10 to 360:[-], in just two hours, [-] Security Guard encountered millions of uninstalls.
The Penguin once again showed its place in the industry in rough style.
At the same time, Zhou Hongyi, who had just landed at Shanghai Airport, was sitting in the car heading to Shanghai Hang Lung 23 with a dignified expression. She never expected the situation to deteriorate so quickly.
This is already a complete competition to see who is more hooligan.
Seriously, this is the most innovative penguin Zhou Hongyi has ever seen.
At 10:30, Zhou Hongyi arrived at Hang Lung 23, and walked into the President's Office of Yike under the guidance of General Secretary Fang.
Time is running out and the situation is grim.
Zhou Hongyi exchanged pleasantries and said directly: "Mr. Fang, the opportunity for Yike to enter the communication field has come!"
"Mr. Zhou, sit down first." Fang Zhuo waved his hand and said with a smile, "I noticed the recent incidents between your two families, which really surprised me."
He casually posted the newly edited Weibo dynamics—what is the meaning of the existence of hippopotamuses?
Zhou Hongyi didn't sit down, and said in a loud voice: "The penguin has caused public outrage. This time it attacked 360. Everyone has seen its nature. Others don't know it. I believe that if Mr. Fang wants to see it, he can see it. The background data of the blog must be the most intuitive response to the momentum of public opinion."
Fang Zhuo put down his teacup and rubbed his temples. It was too late to eat melons on Weibo last night, so he woke up this morning with a bit of a migraine.
Zhou Hongyi's tone became sad: "However, public opinion belongs to public opinion. Even though 360 has paid a big price, the size of both sides is not at the same level. Penguin has nothing to fear, and the morning is even more appalling. The forced choice between the two, Mr. Fang ,Did you see it?"
Fang Zhuo nodded, he saw it, and he was afraid that he might not see it.
Zhou Hongyi continued: "Mr. Fang, I believe Mr. Lei also told you that 360 had no choice but to import some of Penguin's user data. Many users do not want to change the communication software because they are afraid of losing the contact information of their friends. Now, this is not a problem. , at least, it's not a big problem."
Fang Zhuo silently rubbed his temples again, thinking about how to respond to Mr. Zhou's eagerness.
"Because of public opinion, Penguin has been criticized by thousands of people. In terms of data, the cost of user replacement has been greatly reduced. Talking about competition, Penguin has always had a bad relationship with Yike. Mr. Fang..." Zhou Hongyi was very anxious. The violent Heihu pushed his heart out to a corner, "If Yi Ke can't make it, what about the user!"
Fang Zhuo heard Mr. Zhou's tragedy, sighed, and said kindly: "You fight back and forth, but the user will suffer in the end, why bother?"
The two softwares fought on the user's computer, which was hilarious and funny.
Zhou Hongyi didn't want to procrastinate, and said again: "I think Yike is working on the YMS ecology. How can there be no communication in the ecology? If the important part of communication can't be grasped, once Penguin also exerts its strength on the mobile terminal, it will It's just a remake of it on the PC side, Mr. Fang, you must guard against it, you must not be careless, and you must seize the opportunity!"
Fang Zhuo still gave an answer. In fact, after Penguin came out this morning, the time for Yi Xin to appear on the stage was ripe.
He pondered: "President Zhou, I understand what you mean. To be honest, Yi Ke is prepared for this, but we are waiting for the right time."
Zhou Hongyi asked directly, "How long will we have to wait?"
Fang Zhuo's thoughts were beating, 10, 9, 8, 7...
Suddenly, Zhou Hongyi's cell phone vibrated wildly.
He took a look and saw that it was Qi Xiangdong, the CEO of the company.
Zhou Hongyi frowned, apologized to President Fang, connected the phone, and his face changed rapidly.
Ten seconds later, he put down his phone, his old partner's urgent voice still echoing in his mind.
"Hurry up, Mr. Zhou, run away quickly, fly wherever you can, let's talk about the rest later!!"
