My rebirth is different.

Chapter 826 Kill the chicken and show it to the monkey
Cai Congxin was a little puzzled, "Yahoo and Google are both search engine sites. They do have advertising business, but they all need to be paid, and the price is expensive. As for the effect, I think it is not as good as the cooperation with Facebook games. .

As for Microsoft, is there any good cooperation model with them? "

Cai Congxin really doesn't understand, Yahoo and Google are okay, because these two companies have huge Internet traffic and can provide Facebook with new users.

But what's the deal with Microsoft?

It is a computer system and office software company, and there is no room for cooperation.

Of course, if you only look at the size and market value of the company, Microsoft and Amazon are indeed very big, and they can be regarded as the top technology companies in the world.

Of course Yu Wenfei knew what Cai Congxin said, but he had his own ideas.

He waved his hand and said, "Now what we want is to open up the market as soon as possible and increase the number of users as soon as possible. The competition in the Internet industry is to be fast enough! Our Facebook model is not very complicated, and competition may emerge at any time. Come on. Perhaps, there are some small sites similar to Facebook, but they haven't popped up yet.

We have been listed and have strong financial support. At this time, it is time to use money to open up the market.

As for Microsoft, they also make social software, and MSN is ranked among the top three instant messaging software in Europe and America.Of course, it cannot be compared with ICQ.But precisely because of this, Microsoft also needs allies in the Internet industry to fight against leaders like ICQ.

Our Facebook is a good partner. "

What Yu Wenfei said is actually only the superficial reason. As for the deeper reason, he has not told Cai Congxin now.

Because we have to observe the development of the situation, and the time has not yet come.

But in any case, it doesn't matter whether it's spending money or cooperating, it's always a good thing for Facebook to have more partners.

Cai Congxin also understands this, so regarding Yu Wenfei's suggestion, he said that he would discuss it with Lu Qi and ask Lu Qi to talk to these companies.

After talking about Facebook, Cai Congxin asked curiously: "Mr. Fei, why Facebook and Facebook games have gone out of the mainland and started to expand into the international market. But why didn't WeChat go out at all? In fact, WeChat can do it. It was promoted together with Facebook. The two softwares complement each other, and it may be better to promote them together.”

Indeed, Facebook is a weak social platform, while WeChat is a strong social communication software.

Together, the two can meet all the social needs of the Internet.

But Yu Wenfei has never mentioned letting WeChat go global, but he has said several times to Facebook games and Facebook, let them go to the world as soon as possible.

Cai Congxin didn't quite understand this point, so I took the opportunity to ask for advice today.

Regarding this issue, Yu Wenfei certainly has his own considerations, and it is not a secret thing. The specific reasons can be briefly discussed with Cai Congxin.

After a little thought, he asked Cai Congdao: "Do you know the difference between WeChat and Facebook?"

"Ah? Mr. Fei, haven't you said many times that one is a weak social platform with a media nature, and the other is a strong social communication software." Cai Congxin said blankly.

"A deeper analysis shows that sites such as Facebook are public social platforms, although they also involve personal privacy, but since everyone knows that it is public, they will not put things that are too private on it.

But WeChat is different. It is very private, and users have no scruples after using it. There are really many things about personal privacy.

Eastern and Western cultures are different, and national conditions and laws are also different. European and American countries pay more attention to the security of personal privacy.

We are a foreign company, and we come from a so-called socialist country. Therefore, Europe and the United States will not open up sensitive areas such as communications.

Besides, there are already ICQ and WeChat in foreign countries, and they are relatively mature, and the users are basically wiped out by them.

Our WeChat is only going out now, it is already too late.Facing the dual pressure of the market and the national level, it is difficult to grow up.

This is not something our company can do through hard work.

In this case, let's not waste our efforts at all. "

Yu Wenfei explained with a smile.

He is well aware that Internet communication also belongs to the communication industry. How can European and American countries allow companies from China to intervene in such an industry.

Even the so-called commercial freedom is small in scale when it first started, with few users and little influence, so they don’t care about you.

But when you get bigger, or even reach the scale of monopoly, you will know if they can do it or not.

And with software like WeChat, it's too easy for others to mess with you, and you can't hide it.

Compared with Facebook, it will be better, but Yu Wenfei does not dare to be too optimistic about what will happen in the future, so when Facebook first entered North America, he made preparations to deal with future crises !
Cai Congxin is a bit at a loss, he doesn't know much about ideology.

He was born in Taiwan and studied in the United States, so he understands these things.

However, since Yu Wenfei brought it up so seriously, Cai Congxin understood that it must be reasonable. Of course, President Fei would not talk nonsense when it comes to major issues related to the company's development.

…………

As the time entered April, Yuwenfei's various companies became more and more busy.

Facebook Entertainment formed the China Network Video and Video Anti-Piracy Alliance and sued Baidu for the first trial.

The legal department led by Fang Zhiyan had already done a lot of evidence collection work in the early stage.

Just the printed photocopies of the suspected pirated and infringed webpages on Baidu website can fill a whole room!
This is one of the reasons why Internet infringement lawsuits are difficult to fight. It is too difficult to provide evidence...

However, as long as you are willing to spend money, these are not a problem.

It just so happens that what Facebook Entertainment lacks most is money!

Facebook, standing behind it, just got back $60 billion from the American stock market!

So in court, facing the large amount of evidence presented by the lawyer team led by Fang Zhiyan, even the judge felt his head sweating, because there were too many and too detailed.

These evidences do not mean that you hire a batch of temporary workers to print them out and you are done.

Instead, it must be printed page by page by a professional lawyer under the supervision of a notary office, so that it has legal effect.

Hiring lawyers and notaries is a lot of money, so this is why it is so difficult to fight infringement lawsuits in the Internet industry.

You may spend millions of dollars, and you can only get tens of thousands of dollars in compensation after you win the lawsuit. The gain outweighs the loss...

But the purpose of Facebook Entertainment's lawsuit is not compensation, it is to kill chickens for monkeys to see, and warn all infringing and pirated websites not to attack Facebook Entertainment.

Otherwise, no matter how much energy, manpower, and financial resources are spent, I must fuck you!
Baidu is the "chicken" that was killed...

…………

The lawsuit went smoothly, and Baidu also realized the determination and preparation of Facebook Entertainment.

Anyway, even if it is an infringement, it is nothing more than compensation and apology.

And the amount of compensation will not be too high, because Baidu has not obtained direct economic benefits from these infringement and piracy.

The invisible benefits are unclear.

Therefore, there is a high probability that the compensation will be 80 yuan, which is considered a high amount of compensation in similar lawsuits.

If the lawsuit drags on, the attorney fees alone will be enough for Baidu.

Facebook Entertainment has a lot of money, so naturally they don't care about lawyer fees, but Baidu does...

At the end of the lawsuit, Baidu realized its management negligence and lack of respect for copyright awareness.

I sincerely apologized, and said that I would remove all copyrighted audio and video links on Facebook from the website, and ensure that no hotlinking will be done through search software such as crawlers in the future.

As for the economic compensation, it is really not high, only 160 million.

But Facebook Entertainment has already achieved its own goal. By suing Baidu, it has deterred all piracy websites.

Even Baidu has fallen, and which pirate website would dare to play the idea of ​​​​Facebook entertainment.

Everyone should quickly check their own websites to see if there is anything related to the copyright of Facebook Entertainment, and if there is, it should be removed immediately.

In the past, everyone carried out copyright infringement and piracy without any scruples. It was because no company was serious with them, not because they were not afraid.

Now there are real companies appearing, and they are rich and powerful. Who is not afraid of such companies.
