I am the only one who practices magic: I practice magic in the city

Chapter 342: Brother is Kind and Righteous (5096)

After watching the video, Zhang Xiangzheng was so shocked that he couldn't recover for a long time.

This video contains too much information, and different people can get different messages from it.

Those who are familiar with the recent situation in Miami can see that the Jude people are still unwilling to give up and are still trying hard to suppress public opinion.

Those who are familiar with the capital market were surprised that BlackRock would be involved in two different entrepreneurial projects of the same founder twice, and the person in charge of this project finally said that the project would never be IPO!

Those who are familiar with the struggles among the upper echelons of Miami can also appreciate the current complicated and extremely chaotic situation among the upper echelons of Miami.

But none of these were important to Zhang Xiangzheng. He only saw one thing - Ysou rejected BlackRock's valuation offer of 5 billion US dollars!
That’s 5 billion dollars!

Close to 40 billion Great Zhou coins!

If you don’t want to be invested, you can also choose a three-year interest-free loan of 1 billion Malaysian dollars!
How is this different from giving money?
Why did they refuse?
No, more importantly, Ysou is now worth 5 billion dollars! ?
The current market value of 720 in the Mai stock market is only 93 billion Mai dollars!

Moreover, most of the businesses supporting the stock price are such as enterprise security and targeted advertising on desktop clients.

If 720 Search is split off and listed separately, it may not even reach 10 billion Yuan!

No, if the search business is separated out, 720 Search will never be able to go public!
Unless it's in Big A.

How did this company, which was founded just over a month ago, suddenly get such a high valuation? ?

And you even pretend to be cool and say there will never be an IPO?

This video seems to have started circulating online around 1:00 p.m. Who took this video?

It seems that the surveillance footage from the conference room of BlackRock’s Newport office was directly accessed.

Released by BlackRock's people?
Or was it hacked?
If it was hacked, by whom?
However, Zhou Shuzi was quite handsome when he was showing off.

No wonder there is a hot search term "most handsome CEO" on Weibo.

Zhang Xiangzheng searched again and found that the video was actually uploaded by a BlackRock employee.

An investment manager who has just been assigned to BlackRock's Newport office is named Dennis Brosky. He is a young guy and has just been transferred to Newport for more than a year.

I don't know what went wrong with this guy yesterday. He posted several messages on Facebook and Twitter, scolding BlackRock for being an accomplice and harboring evil intentions.

It is said that after seeing this, his colleagues at the company called him and he scolded them.

Immediately afterwards, he released several videos and documents.

The documents are proof of BlackRock's secret funding of some NGOs, as well as the performance reports these NGOs sent to BlackRock.

These NGOs are basically professional organizations that create various conflicts, stir up various controversial topics around the world, and subdivide the differences infinitely.

There is only one purpose - to stir up various conflicts.

Including but not limited to gender, region, ethnicity, class...

According to him, this is "they" trying to make the majority of people hate each other so that the focus will not be on "them", allowing "them" to more smoothly grasp more wealth and power.

Those videos were all surveillance videos that BlackRock used its wealth tyrant power to coerce and bribe various parties to cooperate with it.

The one involving Y search is just one part of it.

Afterwards, this guy sent a message saying that if I disappeared, I would be silenced, and then he really disappeared.

This incident actually didn't cause any big sparks on FB and Twitter for the time being. After all, it was deleted by FB and Twitter within a few hours of being posted.

Moreover, there have been too many scandals about "them" these days, and the onlookers are a bit tired of it. This little case can no longer irritate the nerves of the ordinary people of Miami.

But after this video was brought back to China by overseas Da Zhou people in the afternoon, it became popular on Da Zhou’s social network in just one or two hours!
The reason why he became popular in the first place was also very strange - Zhou Shuzi was too cool in pretending to be cool.

That well-tailored three-piece suit, coupled with his elegant appearance and calm attitude, as well as his strong counterattack when facing suppression, almost satisfies most women's fantasies about the image of a business elite and a domineering president.

Thanks to the popularization of information by many people who forwarded the video, almost everyone who saw the video knew about the capital giant BlackRock.

Faced with billions of dollars, it is not easy to resist temptation. But when facing BlackRock, the capital Cthulhu, the CEO of Ysou actually dared to confront it face to face. He is simply a domineering CEO, okay?
Especially the last sentence, "We are businessmen. We can sell everything, but we will never sell our conscience."

Listen to these words, and the image of a business elite who is cold on the outside but warm on the inside and has a sense of warmth and bottom line is instantly established.

At first, it was mostly women who forwarded the message, but not long after, after a popular science post came out about why Ysou rejected BlackRock, men also joined the ranks of forwarding the message.

In the videos posted by Dennis Brosky, only Ysou firmly rejected BlackRock in the end, while all the others were forced to go along with it.

Only with comparison can you explain how awesome something is.

Soon after, someone dug out the video and article that had been hotly discussed some time ago, "Ysou announced that it would not undertake any medical advertising business." With the combined effects of the two, the popularity of Ysou soared to the sky!

More than half a month ago, when Ysou announced that it would not undertake any medical advertisements, most people actually thought that this was mostly a publicity gimmick.

At that time, there were people who made calm analyses, some who were sarcastic, some who gave objective support, and some who expressed deep doubts. However, there were very few people who truly believed that Ysou did not accept medical advertisements based on conscience.

But after the video of Zhou Shuzi's meeting with BlackRock in Newport was exposed, the two sides confirmed the facts. Although there were still a small number of people who were sarcastic, Ysou's reputation in public opinion received an unprecedented boost.

Many self-media on social networking sites such as Weibo and Zhifou have praised Ysou's moral level to be almost the same as that of Google before it withdrew from the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Zhou Shuzi was so scared that after communicating with Fang Yu, he quickly posted a clarification statement on Weibo and Twitter.

To the effect:
Thank you all for your support. This popularity came a bit suddenly and caught my team and I off guard.

It should be noted that Ysou, as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Youzi Technology, is a purely commercial company, and I am just a pure businessman.

We are just doing what we think is right, but what we think is right does not mean it is really correct, nor does it mean that everyone will agree with it.

Therefore, please do not regard us as moral role models, as we cannot meet everyone's moral expectations.

We believe that a business is a business and should not arrogantly try to force its own moral values, which may not necessarily be correct, on the public.

We are a very young team. I am the oldest in the team, and I am only 32 years old this year.

Our founder is even younger, not even 21 years old, and the views mentioned above are just our views based on our current cognitive abilities and social experiences.

As our cognitive abilities improve and our experiences grow, we may have different perspectives in the future.

But at our current level of cognitive ability, we believe that creating profits for shareholders, creating value for society, and creating progress in science and technology is the greatest morality.

Making money is a natural need for a business to survive, just as it is natural for humans to breathe, eat and drink.

Of course, the purpose is to make money legally.

Legal operation is the most important principle of Ysou. The bottom line of Ysou's operations in any country is to comply with the laws and regulations of the country where the business is located.

As for other values ​​and ethical standards, I actually discussed this topic with the company's founder before I joined Ysou.

In the end, we all agreed that we may not be qualified to judge what is good and what is evil, but if something makes most people feel uneasy, then we should not do it.

Not taking on medical advertising was a decision Ysou had already made before I joined.

Ysou is just a small company that has been established for only a few months. We may make countless mistakes in the future. We don’t have such high moral requirements for ourselves. We just try to ensure that our bottom line is not broken.

This article of mine may be criticized by many people as irresponsible, but it is indeed what we really think.

Finally, thank you all for your support.

By the way, please don’t forget to help your family and friends change their default search engines.

Ysou is the best search engine in the world right now. If you don’t believe me, just look at the comments section↓.

...In the comment section, there was even more chaos. Within just a few hours, Zhou Shuzi's super topic + fan club were established.

After eating all the melons, Zhang Xiangzheng finally understood where Ysou’s traffic came from.

It turns out that it is a cult that has gained a lot of traffic from the fan circle!

Zhang Xiangzheng was indignant.

Isn't he just a little younger than me?
Isn't it just that she looks better than me?

What's so great about that?

Zhang Xiangzheng subconsciously glanced at the watch. It was already ten o'clock in the evening.

Taking another look at the market share, Zhang Xiangzheng felt disheartened.

The peak period of visits has passed, and the number of visits to each company has decreased, but Ysou’s market share is even higher!
In the past two hours, Ysou's market share has stabilized at 35% and is heading towards 36%.

On the other hand, 720’s market share is about to fall below 16%.

broken!

Zhang Xiangzheng suddenly remembered that it was already ten o'clock in the morning, Maidong time.

Boss Qiu must have gotten up and will see the news soon!

Thinking of Boss Qiu's usual unreasonable style, Zhang Xiangzheng instantly broke out in a sweat.

What the hell is this about a domineering president who has a conscience, warmth and gentleness like jade? If you have the guts, why don’t you try working under Boss Qiu?
-
Xinhao, the colorful city on Qinghe Middle Street.

Although it was already ten o'clock in the evening, floors 7 to 13 of the Wucaicheng Building were still brightly lit.

This is the current headquarters of Da Mi. Da Mi developed so fast that it moved several times over the years. It was only after moving to Wucai City two years ago that it finally settled down.

However, the tens of thousands of square meters of office space in Wucai City still could not meet the office needs of Dami’s growing number of employees. Dami had to rent four different office buildings nearby. With tens of thousands of high-paid employees here, the rental prices in the vicinity have been driven up a lot.

Fortunately, the new Rice Science and Technology Park built in Rice two years ago should be completed next year. By then, we can upgrade our old equipment in one go and save ourselves the hassle.

An office on the 13th floor that was clearly the 15th floor was filled with smoke as if it was on fire.

Several middle-aged men were sitting on the sofa and chairs, smoking around a coffee table.

"I never thought that Ysou would become popular in this way, and classmate Shuzi would become an Internet celebrity." Looking at the message on his mobile phone, Dami President Lin Bin spoke in Cantonese and laughed.

"Yeah, when I saw the product strength of Ysou before, I thought they could make it, but I didn't expect it to be so fast." Lei Jun spoke, smoke coming out of his nose and mouth. "Bin, you worked at Google for so many years, and you have a good relationship with Shuzi. What do you think will happen to Ysou in the future?"

Lin Bin thought about it and shook his head: "It's hard to say."

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Lin Bin explained, "The problem is that they offended BlackRock and announced that they would not go public."

"No matter how low the operating costs of their actual services are, as you all know, for a large search company, this is only a small part of the cost. Marketing costs, management costs, R&D costs... these also require a lot of capital investment."

"But now that they have announced that they will not go public, they have cut off the main exit channel for most investors. It is hard to say how many investors are willing to invest."

"It is impossible to cover all the initial investment costs of Ysou with their own funds."

“So the consensus we reached when we talked about this before was that if YSearch wanted to succeed, it must not stick to its declaration of not going public, and must go public when the time comes.”

"Otherwise, no matter how strong their technology is or how good the Y-search experience is, they will still fail in the end."

"But they are really lucky. When Qianxun happened to encounter such a bizarre incident, Devil's Island and Blackrock gave them the attention they needed most."

"If we didn't know Shuzi well, and if he was going to Newport Blackrock for an away game, I would have thought this was a trap set by Ysou himself, haha."

Lin Bin made a joke, but it hit the mark.

The others laughed a few times, and Lin Bin continued, "If they can take advantage of this opportunity to attract as many users as possible from Qianxun, I think it will be easy to reach the 5 billion US dollars valuation given by BlackRock. At this time, if they can come up with a strong profit model, they may be able to get some strategic financing even if they don't go public."

"That's why I said 'it's hard to say'. Now no one knows when Qianxun's 'content management' will be fixed, and no one knows how much of a blow this incident will have on Qianxun, and how much of the cake Ysou will eat, so the current situation is indeed difficult to guess."

"Personally, I think Qianxun will solve these problems eventually."

"Even if they take advantage of this opportunity to snatch away one-third of Qianxun's users, as long as Qianxun survives, with Qianxun's financial strength, they can still win back some of the users."

"If Ysou's financing problem is not resolved, it will eventually be dragged down by Qianxun."

Lei Jun nodded and put out his cigarette in the ashtray: "You are right. In fact, I also wanted to ask Fang Yu if he would accept the investment at the beginning, but when I heard that he was not going to list Ysou, I felt that this matter was not very reliable."

Li Wanqiang, the vice president of marketing and brand building, who was sitting next to Lei Jun, said, "Brother Jun, what do you think of the cooperation proposed by Shu Zi yesterday?"

Lei Jun shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I think there is no problem in adding YSearch as an optional browser search engine in the next MIUI system update. It's nothing more than adding an option. But it's a bit difficult for us to make YSearch the default option."

"As you know, Robert and I have known each other for nearly ten years. He helped me a lot when we were at Yinshan before. Some time ago, we had some rifts because of our cooperation with Yuzu Technology. Now is his difficult time. How can I add insult to injury?"

"I plan to delay it for a few days, and then talk to Shuzi about the difficulties. I believe he will understand."

When everyone heard Lei Jun's statement, they all nodded and said, "Yes, that's right, big brother is kind and righteous."

Lei Jun lit up another Yingtai Caiba and suddenly laughed, "The most handsome CEO, hahaha. Robert Lee was also the most handsome CEO before. I wonder who will have the last laugh between the old and new generations of the most handsome CEO."
-
"It's been down for 12 hours! 12 hours! And you're telling me there's still no problem!?"

"Where are Tang Zhenglei, Jin Chao, and Zhang Haodong? Did they go home after get off work? Who told them to go home? The system hasn't been restored yet, and they still want to go home? Do you still want to work in Qianxun? "

With a bang, Robert Lee threw the laptop in front of him to the ground, breaking it into pieces.

The technical team of more than a hundred people was silent, with only the occasional sound of keyboards.

The former most handsome CEO has disheveled hair and red eyes. How can he be seen as the Robert Lee who was once known as “gentle as jade”?

"Robert, I asked them to go home. Some of them have been working for nearly 40 hours and they really can't stand it anymore..."

Jiang Feiyu stepped forward reluctantly.

Even an iron man couldn't stand working forty hours straight.

Moreover, this is not just a problem of continuous work, but a problem of not being able to find the problem at all, and working ineffectively like a headless fly.

This kind of work will greatly consume people's energy and endurance. Look at these people in the room. Their eyes are dull and they look like zombies.

"You asked them to go home!? Who do you think you are? You couldn't make it? I've been making it for almost forty hours! Why didn't you say you couldn't make it?!"

"No one is allowed to leave work until the system is restored! Anyone who leaves now doesn't have to come back tomorrow!"

Robert Lee said this viciously.

In the past, Robert thought he would never be able to say such words that would subvert his own image.

But now, when Qianxun was facing life and death, he found that he had no psychological pressure at all when he said this.

And the audience did not feel any indignation or anger.

Because I no longer have the energy to be angry.

Everyone dispersed with dull eyes, preparing to return to their workstations to continue working.

"Bang!" sound.

Several people turned around and saw an employee in his thirties falling to the ground without any warning and unconscious.
