my return 2002

Chapter 234 Half a step ahead is a genius, one step ahead is a madman
While Shen Lang was busy building mobile terminals, Chen Tianqiao was not idle, promoting his grand plan everywhere.

Needless to say, in 2005, Chen Tianqiao's idea of ​​installing a computer into a TV was actually very advanced, and it caused quite a stir in the Internet industry.

The reason is also very simple. In 2005, the number of personal computers in China was less than 5 million, but the number of TVs was more than 5000 million. Almost every household has a TV. Even if the user conversion rate is only one-tenth, that is [-] million users Ah, how can you not be moved?
Jack Ma was the first to stand up and support Chen Tianqiao. Facing the media, he said excitedly: This is what I have always wanted to do, and he expressed that he would fully support Chen Tianqiao. The operation of shopping can be completed on the TV.

Afterwards, Chen Tianqiao visited many Internet companies, and many of them expressed that they would cooperate with Shanda Box. The only thing that made Chen Tianqiao unhappy was that Xiao Ma rejected his proposal.

In fact, it's not that Brother Xiao Ma is not interested in this plan, but he is very clear that this project cannot be carried out. Mobile operators have just started to engage in digital TV. How can they give up such a big piece of cake to Chen Tianqiao?

However, Chen Tianqiao did not realize the danger at this time. He had invested nearly 5 million US dollars in the early stage, and the entire Shanda Box team had recruited a thousand R&D engineers from all over the country. He couldn't afford to lose.

Here, after Shen Lang and He Xiaopeng returned to Shanghai from the Pearl River, He Xiaopeng began to recruit troops for the research and development of the mobile operating system. The business of the 360 ​​browser has also stabilized. Subsequent updates can be handed over to the deputy team leader of the project team. .

However, this also created a problem. The company's office area was not enough. Shen Lang had rented out an entire floor of the office building before. With the increase of the company's projects, the number of people was close to 400. It seems a bit crowded, the development of the mobile operating system requires at least [-] members, and there is simply no room for it.

Zhu Jun's matter of buying a property reminded Shen Lang that buying a property at this time is definitely a profitable business, and he also has sufficient cash in his hand.

"Then just buy one?"

Shen Lang told Lei Jun his thoughts.

"Buy, must buy!" Lei Jun knew that after Shen Lang sold Ninetowns shares, he held a lot of cash in his hand, and he was not worried about the company's cash flow problems. Get rid of the stinky problem.

Shen Lang called Zhu Jun, and Zhu Jun was overjoyed when he heard it, and laughed and scolded: "You kid persuaded me a few days ago, but now you want to buy a house yourself."

Shen Lang was at a loss for words for a while, but Zhu Jun didn't bother with it, but asked, "How about the building No. [-] next to me? I heard that the boss also wants to cash out and leave."

"You make an appointment for me, and then go to the scene to see the situation."

"OK."

That night, Zhu Jun called Shen Lang and made an appointment to see the house the next day, no, to see the house.

Building No. 9800 is similar to Building No. [-] where Ninetowns is located, but the area is slightly different. Shen Lang and Lei Jun are very satisfied with this property, and finally sold it for [-] million.

Standing on the top floor overlooking, Shen Lang couldn't help feeling overwhelmed, and said to Lei Jun behind him in high spirits.

"In the future, this place will become a landmark building in Shanghai. When people pass by, they will say: Look, that's Inspur Technology!"

There was a hot light in Lei Jun's eyes.

Of course, the place needs to be refurbished before moving in, and the company will be relocated next year.

Unknowingly, the time has come to October, which coincides with Golden Week, and Shen Lang got on the flight to the capital. This time, he was not going to poach the wall, but to participate in the recording of CCTV's [Dialogue] column.

In fact, Shen Lang once thought it was a liar when he received the invitation call.

[Dialogue] It is a relatively rigorous interview column, and the threshold for invited guests is relatively high. They are either business elites, political leaders, or cultural celebrities.

When hanging up the phone, Shen Lang asked Lei Jun in a daze: Am I considered a business elite now?
Lei Jun rolled his eyes. If he didn't know Shen Lang's character, he would definitely think that this guy was pretending to be aggressive, not to mention the relatively imaginary assets of tens of billions of dollars. It is definitely the first echelon in the industry.

This guy is simply developing too fast in his career, so that his cognition can't keep up with the growth of wealth and status.

At the Beijing airport, Shen Lang hugged a fat middle-aged man.

"Brother Yao, I have caused you trouble again."

This fat man is Lei Jun's buddy, and he was the one who introduced him to the Huayi Wang brothers last time he met.

"You, you're just being too polite. What's the matter? I heard that you're going to be on CCTV's dialogue program this time? Niubi, I didn't realize how fast you've risen." Liu Yao said with some emotion.

"Haha, don't talk about Brother Yao, even I feel like I'm dreaming." Shen Lang laughed.

"Okay, let's stop talking nonsense here, go back to the hotel first, you have a rest, and I'll take care of you later, I've made arrangements." Liu Yao said and pulled Shen Lang into the car.

Shen Lang knew Liu Yao's character, so he didn't refuse.

Back at the hotel, Shen Lang put down his luggage, and was taken by Liu Yao to a fly restaurant in a small alley, not to mention, the taste was really good.

"How about it, don't look at the bad environment here, the taste is definitely worth mentioning!" Seeing Shen Lang gobbling, Liu Yao couldn't help but proudly said.

Shen Lang gave a thumbs up in his busy schedule: "It's cool, or it must be that this kind of fly restaurant tastes good."

"Haha, at this point, the two of us thought of going together. If we want to talk about delicious places, no one in the four or nine cities knows more than me. When you come to the capital, you must remember to call me. These alleys Here, there are a lot of delicious food, I guarantee that you will eat the same food for a month or two!" Liu Yao patted his chest and said.

Shen Lang's heart skipped a beat: "Hey, Brother Yao, have you ever played with a blog?"

"I've played it before. I'm one of the first users of Sina Blog, but I'm not well-known, and no one reads what I write." Liu Yao shook his head and said unhappily.

This is also one of the failures of Sina Blog at present. The main traffic is given to top celebrities, and some other small bloggers can only stare blankly. Over time, they have no motivation to update.

Shen Lang put down his chopsticks and wiped his mouth: "Brother Yao, if you don't like this, you should stop playing Sina blog, come to YY Diary, and you will share your experience of visiting the store every day, as well as some pictures and texts about the dishes, Send comments to YY diary, make sure it gets popular!"

Liu Yao was a little suspicious: "Here, I heard that the users of YY are all young people. How can I be a veteran like me?"

"Brother Yao, let's put it this way, the only thing in this world that can't be let down is delicious food. Who doesn't like to eat it? The younger you are, the more you eat in different ways. Just trust me, within three months, it's sure to be popular." Shen Lang Stern way.

Liu Yaoyi thought: "That's fine, then it's settled. If there is no fire, I can go to the devil to find you for three months."

For Liu Yao, at his age, he has a rich career, a happy family, and everything he needs, but occasionally he feels a little empty. For him, blogging is a way to find a sense of identity, and he never thought about relying on it. make money.

"Don't say three months, you're here, even if you eat for three years, I will have to serve you."

"Haha, okay, I knew from the first time I saw you, kid, that you are a capable brother."

After dinner, Liu Yao took Shen Lang to the Tsinghua Pool bathhouse opposite the Huguang Guild Hall. This is also a feature of the Old Sijiu City. There are basically no such public baths in the south.

Shen Lang also experienced a one-stop service of bathing, scrubbing, massage, cupping, and scraping. Not to mention, this whole process is a bit painful, but when it comes out, the whole person feels refreshed .

After coming out of the bathroom and back to the hotel, Shen Lang fell into a deep sleep, and was not woken up by the alarm clock until eight o'clock the next morning.

Liu Yao drove Shen Lang to CCTV, and said enviously, "You should be the youngest guest on the dialogue program."

After Shen Lang got out of the car, he called the receptionist of the dialogue column group who received him. About 5 minutes later, a little girl wearing glasses came out and saw Shen Lang trotting over.

"Mr. Shen, I'm sorry to keep you waiting." The little girl gasped.

Shen Lang smiled: "It's okay, take a breath first, don't worry."

After registering the identity information, the security guard issued a hanging tag, and Shen Lang was able to enter CCTV. Along the way, the little girl also enthusiastically introduced the situation of each column group of CCTV to Shen Lang.

"Mr. Shen, please sit down for a while. Our team leader Duan is in a meeting and will be there soon." The little girl carefully poured Shen Lang a glass of water.

Shen Lang smiled and said, "It's okay."

After a few minutes, a middle-aged fat woman came in, and the little girl began to introduce.

"Mr. Shen, this is Team Leader Duan, the person in charge of our dialogue program team."

"Hello, Team Leader Duan."

"Boss Shen is younger than I imagined, he is really young and promising!" Team leader Duan said with emotion.

The two exchanged pleasantries for a while, and then Team Leader Duan took out a program schedule and handed it to Shen Lang.

"Mr. Shen can take a look at it first, and there will be a host to review the script later. If there is anything inconvenient to say, you can also raise it in advance, and we will ask the director to modify the script."

Shen Lang nodded, indicating that there is no problem.

Team leader Duan then asked the little girl to bring Shen Lang to the backstage of the program group, and then the director brought the script.

Shen Lang opened it and looked it over, but it didn't involve any sensitive topics, which CCTV is quite strict about.

"I'm fine."

The host also nodded at the director: "Then follow this."

A few days later, Shen Lang reappeared on CCTV. It was the little girl from yesterday who brought him in. After a simple make-up in the background, he headed to the studio.

The studio for the dialogue program is actually relatively small. Since it is a talk show, it takes up a lot of space. To be precise, it should be a studio. There are two sofas on the stage and several rows of auditoriums below.

When Shen Lang arrived, the auditorium was already full, and some young people greeted Shen Lang, while the older ones looked blank, probably wondering why the guest this time looked like a college student.

The on-site director took Shen Lang to the camera twice more, and when he saw that Shen Lang was almost familiar with him, he announced.

"Officially opened."

The host stood in the center of the stage and said some polite remarks such as welcoming the audience, and then began to introduce the guests.

"The guest we invited today is quite special. He should be the youngest guest in our dialogue column group. He is just 25 years old this year. He graduated from Dongda University in 2002, and it is only three years ago."

"In the past three years, he has completed the transformation from a college graduate to the owner of a first-class company in the industry. Maybe you don't know his name, but most people should have used his company's products."

"YY, 360 Browser, 360 Smart Pinyin Input Method, 360 Security Guard, Duowan Community, Xingchen Chinese Website, Jianyu Jianghu, let us welcome today's guest-Shen Lang with the warmest applause!"

Shen Lang walked from the backstage to the center of the stage, and the audience began to applaud with dignity.

"Welcome Mr. Shen."

After the two were seated, the host asked a hot question.

"I just introduced a long list of product names. I believe many viewers are curious. How did you do it in just three years from graduation to now, and how did you come up with the idea of ​​developing so many products? "

Shen Lang smiled: "Actually, to be precise, I started my internship in March 2002, and I didn't start my business until 2003. It's been less than three years now."

Now that they have been on the show to expose themselves, it's publicity anyway, so it's better to pretend to be more thorough.

Sure enough, the audience showed a shocked look.

The host was also very cooperative, and said in surprise: "It's less than three years? Then I'm even more curious, how did you do it?"

"This is the charm of the Internet. If it is a traditional industry, it may take ten years or even decades of accumulation to become the first-class industry. But the Internet industry is different. This is an industry that competes for creativity. As long as your products are sufficient If you are innovative and can control the pain points of users, you can gain a large number of users in a short period of time, which is a fission reaction." Shen Lang shrugged.

The host nodded thoughtfully and asked another question.

"But in fact, it must not be as simple as Mr. Shen said, right?"

Shen Lang nodded: "Indeed, any product has to be tested by the market in the end. It's not that the greater the innovation, the more users will like it. A half-step ahead is a genius, and one step ahead is a lunatic. How to grasp this degree is also what we have been working on all the time. question to explore."

"Half a step ahead is a genius, and one step ahead is a madman. It's quite interesting." The host secretly wiped his sweat, why didn't this guy follow the script that was correct yesterday?However, seeing that the director on the scene didn't shout Ka, he could only continue.

"Mr. Shen, I found out that your company also makes online games. There is a lot of controversy about online games in the society. What do you think about this?"

This topic is more acute. When some middle-aged people present heard that Shen Lang was also playing online games, they looked at him in the wrong way.
