For Google search, Luo Sheng does not have to worry at all. Page must insist on maintaining the so-called core philosophy, disrespect the good culture of other countries' laws, and sooner or later withdraw from the Greater China market.
And Yunge Search performs automatic review and filtering monitoring on the content, and actively cooperates with the GFWed system. The IP of the portal network explicitly prohibited by the country will never be resolved through the Yunge search engine. Simply speaking, it cannot be opened directly, but it can also be used online. , But this has nothing to do with cloud song search.
With the launch of the cloud song search engine and the welcome of a new version, the outside world finally realized that Luo Sheng spent 30 million to acquire this navigation site, and afterwards, it seemed to understand its value.
At this time, people in the industry suddenly realized that the value of the navigation site was realized by people.
But it has been established for four years, and the traffic among the best in the country has now become Luo Sheng's pocket. Cloud song search has suddenly emerged, and the search requests that originally connected to Google and Baidu search engines were all Luo Sheng Truncate and divert to Yunge Search.
...
Baidu headquarters, conference room.
"Luo Sheng acquired the hao123 navigation website and truncated the navigation links of whiteness, which directly caused search requests to drop by more than 30%. We must launch our own navigation website as soon as possible."
After a senior executive at the conference gave a speech, others nodded in agreement. Everyone did not expect that hao123 navigation website has such great power. In fact, everyone knows that building a new navigation website is simple and can be accessed by traffic. It's not easy.
But there is no better way. A navigation site must be established. There is no way. Is it really necessary to give all the new Internet users to the hao123 site?
At this time, another senior executive said: "Since Luo Sheng cut off the whiteness link and Yunge Search went online, we have already faced the competition with Bluestar Technology. We can't be soft. We recommend blocking on the whiteness search. Drop BlueSpace \ Blue Space \ B 社 \ B 社区 \ BS equivalent search terms and links, or jump directly to competitors in Blue Space, such as 51 or Renren, we also burned the fire to Ta Luo Sheng's backyard can make a profit ... "
After hearing this, Li Yanhong said no on the spot, saying: "This is equivalent to killing one thousand to damage two thousand. Stupid, the main force of Internet users across the country now has almost a blue space social account. It is too aggressive. Search users are increasingly disgusted with whiteness search. Eventually, these users will turn to the embrace of Yunge Search. Would n't they just rock their feet? "
Everyone was suddenly shocked, and the executive who gave the suggestion stopped saying that, indeed, it was too stupid to do so.
"Have you used Yunge Search?"
Everyone nodded unanimously when listening to Li Yanhong's question. An executive said solemnly: "The indexing technology of Cloud Search is very powerful and is not much weaker than our and Google's products. From the perspective of experience, from the perspective of users, Look, the homepage of Yunge Search is concise and the index results are completely aimed at the auction. Advertisers may prefer whiteness, but users ... I think they will like Yunge Search more. "
The management attending the meeting knew that Baidu's bid ranking was highly controversial. Now, a cloud song search is clearer than Google, and the indexing technology is also very good. Such an opponent who uses user experience as the core benchmark is very afraid of whiteness. Yes, because we know our own advantages and disadvantages, we have a strong ability to realize cash, but the overdraft is the future.
But in the current domestic search engine market, although Baidu already has a market share of more than 48%, it is hard to say who can stand out from the crowd in the end.
Although cloud song search has just been born, although it is a latecomer, it has a high starting point, especially after Luo Sheng included the hao123 navigation site in his pocket.
To divert cloud song search, most new users who are new to the Internet when they first contact the search engine are no longer searching for whiteness, but searching for cloud songs.
Even if half of these users will eventually turn into users of cloud song search, that's an amazing amount.
Another executive said at the conference: "In this way, Yunge Search will inevitably be exchanged for the user experience at the cost of operating at a loss. How long can the funds be sustained? And if I am not wrong, Blue Space has so far exceeded 100 million users I still do picture sharing, the scary bandwidth cost is high, but I have n't accepted any advertising business. Obviously, I am not ready to realize the traffic. It can be said that the establishment of Bluestar Technology has been operating at a loss and relying on VC to inject capital. Operations. "
"I don't know what the man Luo Sheng has done to those VCs. He shouted to the capital circle, so many venture capitalists scrambled to send him money ..." Another participant couldn't help but vomit. After a while, this matter is very irritating, and those even more angry to pull a batch of investment startup companies.
It really is a rhythm that people are more deadly than popularity.
Don't those VCs worry about throwing so much money into it, will they get lost money?
In the angel round stage, Tencent invested US $ 120,000, US $ 9.3 million in the pre-A stage, and US $ 72 million in the A round. The financing limit was exaggerated one time at a time. It is even more incredible that three rounds of financing were conducted in about ten months. , And so far no profit.
Luo Sheng feels to them that these VCs are all his relatives, no, they are closer than relatives.
People in the industry and entrepreneurs are even more envious and jealous of this, not only because Luo Sheng spends investors' money crazy, and the key is that investors are SoftBank, Venture Capital, Goldman Sachs, IDG.
Are the industry's best-known investment institutions, UU reading www.uukanshu. com Their investment in Luo Sheng is equivalent to endorsing Bluestar Technology, which means that more people will participate in subsequent financing.
In other words, Luo Sheng thinks that financing will become more and more smooth.
It's really going smoothly.
Li Yanhong of the conference room thought for a while and immediately decided: "First, set up the 'Baidu Post Bar' project as soon as possible, the navigation website should also be on the agenda, and another offline promotion issue. Now Internet cafes distributed across the country, all default It is the hao123 navigation website. Once the Baidu navigation website comes out, the competition for offline cafes is very important. "
The executives present at the meeting said: "General Manager Li, this expenditure will be quite large."
Li Yanhong sighed: "This is the key to the rapid deployment of Baidu Navigation Website. The traffic area of Internet cafes must not be ignored."
...
Three days later, Bluestar Technology, Development Conference.
"It has been three days since the launch of Yunge Search, and the number of search requests has reached 6.85% of whiteness, far exceeding expectations." Feng Yi is particularly happy. This result is definitely a focus for the search engine just launched.
The accurate index of Yunge Search itself is large on the one hand, but everyone at the meeting knows that this is the most critical thing for Luo Sheng to acquire hao123 navigation and use it for drainage, otherwise 2% would be thankful.
Since the birth of Google search, the "entry" of the Internet world has been transformed from a navigation and portal site to a search engine. This step has been almost completed abroad, so Luo Sheng never expected to defeat Google in overseas markets, but The mainland search engine market is different.
The biggest significance of the hao123 navigation site is to gradually turn from the navigation site to the cloud song search for domestic users who have just touched the Internet world.
