If there is anyone who is full of hostility towards Futureman Technology’s product launches, it is probably Penguin.
After all, they had just acquired Wanghai Lexiang Technology Company some time ago, but now the Phantom launched by Futureman Technology has turned the virtual reality equipment in their hands into junk. The original plan to bundle Penguin social software on the Internet to realize the "virtual reality + big penguin strategy" also died in the copywriting.
Except for sentimental reasons, no one would choose an outdated Xiaobawang game console after owning a smartphone.
The embarrassment they are facing now is the same reason.
If this has never been put on the shelves, there will be no feelings for users...
"What a bunch of rubbish." Staring at the documents on the table, Ma Huateng held it in for a long time before finally swearing out the curse that had been brewing for a long time.
"The Imagination of Virtual Reality Network!" A virtual utopia! 》
"Futureren's technology shows weakness to attract partners, or is it because of technical shortcomings? 》
"Signal of cooperation!" Will the domestic VR industry experience a blowout period? Related industries may usher in market orders worth hundreds of billions! Recommend the following stocks...》
Regardless of the angle of the report, whether positive or negative, the media has already acquiesced to the dominance of Futureman Technology in the field of VR. The rise of human technology in the future has made Penguin Group feel deeply fearful. Especially when he realized that the other party's skills could not be learned from, Mr. Ma deeply felt the feeling of powerlessness.
The ability that one's own side is best at is of no use in front of the opponent.
Even a layman like him could clearly realize that no matter how hard he squeezed the technicians of Lexiang Technology, it would be impossible to bridge this technical gap in a short time.
Facing the boss's reprimand, the secretary standing next to him pretended not to hear, staring at the vase on the office window sill to pass the time, while praying that the boss would not be angry with him.
After taking several deep breaths, Ma Huateng reached out and picked up the tea cup and took a sip. The sweet tea calmed him down a little, not because of how expensive the tea was. But because of its identity. This bag of tea was a special offering at the Congress, a gift given to him by a certain dignitary after the meeting.
Thinking of this, a smile appeared on his lips, and his brows relaxed a lot.
At least in terms of policy. Penguins never lose.
Seeing that the boss' mood eased, the secretary standing next to him breathed a sigh of relief and reported the important matter.
"Boss, the New Zealand delegation will arrive in Beijing at 10 a.m. tomorrow, and Jiang Chen will accompany the delegation—"
"I know that. What's the news from over there?"
"The news from Shangjing City is that they hope we will have more contact with the Future People Group."
More contact
Ma Huateng frowned slightly. The ambiguous attitude of the person above made him confused. What kind of contact method is it? What outcome do the people above want to see? Are they not interested in this epoch-making technology
Seeing that the boss was silent, the secretary asked tentatively.
"Boss, do you need me to book a flight?"
"Of course." Ma Huateng said solemnly, "... Our main field of business is still software. It is a misunderstanding to move towards hardware. In any case, QQ must seize the opportunity on the Phantom helmet. If we cooperate now, it should not be too late. ."
not to mention. Since it was the people above who proposed the meeting, they should be responsible for taking the lead in promoting cooperation. Because of the special nature of the new country, China should try its best to win over this ally. Thinking about the same thing the other way around, the new country should also promote cooperation between Future People Technology and Chinese companies.
But his secretary didn't expect it to be that far away.
"Will Futureman Technology let go of the social platform? They have demonstrated their ambition to seize the chat software market share on Futureman 1.0. If they build a chat software into the Phantom helmet, and then block us from the perspective of compatibility, It’s hard for us to compete with them.”
In 2007, the system launched by Microsoft did not support QQ for a while, which really scared Penguin. Fortunately, this problem has been solved in subsequent updates, and the system's popularity in China is not as good as that of X and the subsequent in7. But anyone can see if Microsoft really wants to kill QQ through compatibility. If you promote your own MSN through forced installation, the only thing waiting for Tencent is death.
Of course, they could never do that.
As for the reason…
"That's not what you said," Mr. Ma narrowed his eyes. Smiling somewhat sinisterly, "Here, there are some things that they can't just do whatever they want. Unless they want to face antitrust investigations."
This sentence is not convincing no matter how it comes out of his mouth. When it comes to the word monopoly, who can compare with the AT three giants
Just when Penguin Company was discussing how to negotiate with the Future People Group. In a house far away in Shangjing City, two old men were sitting opposite each other playing chess.
"This Future Man Group, this Jiang Chen, is quite capable." Holding a black chess piece between his two fingers, the gray-haired old man suddenly smiled and nodded, throwing out such words with unclear meaning.
The old man in the flowered vest also smiled.
"For Lao Liu to comment like this, it seems that this boy is indeed outstanding."
"Hey, you can't say that. Aren't you the Zhou family who were the first to place bets on him?"
"The word "betting" is too offensive. It's just a boy in the family who happens to have some fate with him." Although he said it so modestly, Zhou Antai's face still glowed red.
It turned out that the gangster who had been hanging out in Wanghai City and refused to go back actually brought such a potential ally to the family as soon as he came back. Speaking of which, Jiang Chen would choose to cooperate with the Zhou family, thanks to the Wang family's "matchmaking".
"This Dehai... is still too impatient." The chess piece had not been settled for a long time. Liu Guoxiang sighed and shook his head.
The Dehai he mentioned was naturally referring to Wang Dehai from Wanghai City.
Hearing his old friend's comment, Zhou Antai was immediately happy, but this time he didn't show it on his face, but asked cryptically.
"This was discussed?"
Liu Xiangguo glanced at his old friend with a smile, and then his eyes fell on the chessboard again.
"It's a difficult move."
"What's the difficulty?"
"The difficulty is that there are too many choices." Liu Guo muttered to himself as if he was trying to figure out the chessboard.
"Antai, do you think I should take your wife now, or let it go?"
After hearing his old friend's heartless speech, Zhou Antai patted his thigh and laughed.
"If you ask me that, I definitely hope you will be merciful."
Liu Xiangguo glanced at him and smiled happily.
"Although we are old friends, you know when we play chess, I never show mercy."
"Oh, it doesn't matter. It's not the first time we've lost anyway." Zhou Antai waved his hand nonchalantly.
Although he said nonchalant words, he never took his eyes away from the chessboard.
The hanging sunspot finally fell.
Zhou Antai, who had been staring at the chessboard, shrank his pupils slightly, and then smiled happily.
From the beginning, this old friend had been playing riddles with him, and it wasn't until the stone landed that he finally got some clues. (.)
