- Chen Xiao immediately realized that the thank you letter sent by Baidu some time ago was probably not a spam email, but an invitation letter for cooperation.
Chen Xiao's brain was running rapidly, thinking about the current situation of Baidu.
In 2000, Baidu should have just completed its first round of financing.
Iy partners and Peninsula capital fund purchased 4.8 million shares of Baidu at $0.25 per share, occupying about 24% of Baidu¡¯s shares. At this time, Baidu had about 20 million shares.
In other words, the current market value of Baidu is about 5 million meters, 42 million RMB.
Why does Chen Xiao remember so clearly? That is because the deeds of the two companies investing in Baidu were listed as classic investment cases.
A few years later, when Baidu rushed to go public on NASDAQ, both companies made a lot of money and got a return of hundreds of times.
Chen Xiao thinks that his career has just started, and he is still a small technology company. Through the 11181 website and the Internet cafe management system, he just makes a little bad money.
I didn't expect Baidu to come to the door on my own initiative.
Zhang Xian asked Chen Xiao for advice: "Chen Xiao, look, or you can wait in the meeting room."
Jiangcheng is a poor place, and the annual GDP is not even as much as a company's revenue.
Whether it is a company from the Shanghai Stock Exchange or Yanjing, the local government will receive it warmly, not to mention that the top has just greeted them.
To put it realistically, what if these giant companies invest in Jiangcheng?
Chen Xiao nodded and said, "Then let's go to the meeting room now."
In the conference room, Yang Bin was discussing with his team.
The people of Shengda Company were filled with righteous indignation one by one, feeling very upset.
No matter what, Shengda is a company with a market value of hundreds of millions, and its annual revenue this year may exceed 1 billion.
Shengda's goal is the Internet giants of Xiaguo, such as Xinlang, Shouhu, and Wangyi.
Its Zhonglang and Wangyi were just listed in the United States last year, and Souhu was just listed on the NASDAQ in the United States in July this year, and they both made a lot of money.
The goal of Shengda is to go public in the United States as soon as possible.
So they didn't pay attention to Chen Xiao and that little trick at all.
Originally thought that this investigation could reach a certain sense of reconciliation with Chen Xiao and get the source code of the cheat.
But he didn't think that Chen Xiao, a brat, wouldn't give Sheng Da face at all.
During the discussion just now, the staff of Shengda had already made harsh remarks.
Some things that cannot be solved by law can be solved by other methods.
In this day and age, it should be an easy task to make Chen Xiao unable to study, or to tarnish Chen Xiao's reputation with some force.
No matter how bad it is, the upper management can put pressure on it, making it impossible for Chen Xiao's company to operate normally.
When the company is about to open, many approval processes are decided by the relevant departments.
Just when everyone was discussing lively, it was suddenly discovered that Chen Xiao had turned back again.
Everyone shut their mouths at once.
But Chen Xiao went to the meeting room next door.
More than 10 minutes later, Zhang Ke, head of the marketing department of Baidu, and his colleagues came to the Cultural Affairs Bureau.
In the conference room, everyone saw Chen Xiao.
After some introductions, Zhang Ke confirmed. The developer of 11181 is indeed Chen Xiao.
I didn't expect Chen Xiao to be so young, not at all like the programmers of Baidu Company, who started balding in his 30s.
Zhang Ke was very enthusiastic, and regardless of the fatigue of the journey, he said: "It can be regarded as finding you!"
Zhang Ke said: "Our technicians sent you at least three thank-you and cooperation emails, but none of them responded."
Chen Xiao said with a smile: "I didn't expect you to come!"
After some pleasantries, Zhang Ke didn't talk nonsense, and directly expressed Baidu's desire for cooperation.
"The 11181 website is doing very well. We hope that your website can add a Baidu search engine on the homepage, so that the Baidu search bar can be displayed in front of users more intuitively."
It is also a helpless move for Baidu to do this. After all, he can't make much money just relying on services for websites such as Xinlang, Wangyi, and Souhu, and the right to speak is still in the hands of others, making Baidu's survival very difficult.
Baidu's primary goal now is to expand his influence as much as possible, and to explore profit points as much as possible, so as to make his financial statements and development potential look better.
In this way, in the negotiation with IDG and other venture capital companies, we can seize the opportunity.
Li Yanhong has decided to push the business to a wider range of individual users and implement a bidding ranking.
Only in this way can you make your own report look better and get the second round of financing smoothly.
However, Xia Guo's personal Internet market is still in its infancy, and users know very little about whiteness.
At this critical stage, if we can cooperate with the 11181 website, which has a very wide user market, it will be beneficial to Baidu without any harm.
The influence of the 1181 website is very wide, not only occupying a sufficient market in Jiangyang Province, but also with the crazy expansion of the Internet cafe management system (the reason is free) and the popularity of Shuiyue legend cheats, in many provinces in the southern part of Xiaguo. In Internet cafes, the 11181 website basically locks the homepage of the browser.
Because the website's advertising fee is very low, Chen Xiao really didn't make much money relying on this website.
However, the significance of the website is not to earn that little advertising fee, but to occupy the market as soon as possible and gain the favor of capital.
Zhang Ke has two cooperation plans in hand.
The first is to use cash to buy the home page interface of the 11181 website, and promote Baidu's search engine in a way similar to advertising.
Another way is to invest in the 11181 website to see if you can become a shareholder of the website.
The first method is more realistic, and the second method is risky, but if the 11181 website achieves greater success in the future, then Baidu will also earn a lot of money, which is more like Baidu doing angel investment.
Although Baidu doesn't have much cash in his hand, he should still have the strength to cooperate with a small website.
For the first plan proposed by Zhang Ke, the unit price is still calculated according to pv, 1 block 2 for every 10,000 pv.
This price is a bit higher than the advertised price.
Zhang Ke held his breath and looked at Chen Xiao.
The purpose of Chen Xiao's 11181 website at the beginning was to attract investment, so that he would have more sufficient original funds to do more scientific and technological projects.
In particular, I just lit up the ordinary lithium battery technology tree. This technology is a basic technology for the current MP3, future mobile phones and new energy vehicle projects.
However, it takes a lot of money to carry out research and development.
Chen Xiao definitely doesn't have this strength now.
It's a very good start for Baidu to be able to cooperate with himself.
It's just that Chen Xiao didn't expect that the first user who was interested in the 11181 website was Baidu, whom he didn't like very much.
Seeing that Chen Xiao hadn't spoken, Zhang Ke took a deep breath and said, "We still have a second plan in our hands."
Chen Xiao did not immediately respond to Zhang Ke's words but said:
