My Age of Investment

On the first day of November, 360 made a high-profile announcement that the download volume of the KouKou Bodyguard software, which had only been launched for three days, had exceeded 10 million, with an average of 40 independent downloads and installations per second, setting a new record. Collected the download records of new software released on the Internet in China.

In addition, according to the Qianxun search rankings, 360 Bodyguard immediately topped the real-time hot search rankings on the day it was released. The search volume far exceeded hot events such as "Big S Engagement" and "Li Gangmen", becoming a The software product that currently attracts the most attention from netizens.

Correspondingly, a large number of QQ users who have installed QQBodyguard on their computers are living a happy life that they could not even dream of in the past ten years.

There are no annoying QQ pop-ups, no annoying ads, and even unnecessary panels in the sidebar of the QQ chat window can be closed, making the QQ interface look less cumbersome and run more smoothly.

The most important thing is that QQBodyguard is free!

In the past, if users wanted to block some ads from Penguin, they had to recharge their membership for ten yuan a month.

Therefore, the law of free prostitution came into effect quickly, and a large number of users who heard about the magical functions of KouKou Bodyguard chose to download this software.

Seeing the white money slipping out of his hands like this, Penguin naturally couldn't sit still at all. Official announcements were issued one after another, and each one was more harshly worded.

In addition to verbal protests and pressure, Penguin also took practical actions. Soon they found Zhou Hongyi's old friend and subordinate Fu Sheng for help.

Fu Sheng worked in both 3721 and 360. He was also the developer of 360 Security Guard and made great contributions to the rise of 360. But later, I don’t know whether it was because of his great achievements that shocked the master, or because the young man had too much temper, or because he had a relationship with Zhou Hongyi had differences of opinion, and Fu Sheng eventually left 360 and chose to join Matrix Partners China to engage in venture capital. It was he who made the final decision to invest in Baofeng Video.

Last year, Fu Sheng, who was described by Lei Jun as one of the top three senior talents in client software in China, was sent by Zhang Ying, the founding managing partner of Matrix Partners China, to serve as the CEO and chairman of Keniu Imaging, which is invested by Matrix Partners China. So I joined the entrepreneurial army.

After choosing to start a business, Fu Sheng soon started working in his old business and launched Kanniu Antivirus, a product that conflicted with the 360 ​​security business. Coupled with the various unhappiness caused by the resignation process, Zhou Hongyi and Fu Sheng This pair of former Bole and Qianlima turned against each other and became enemies. They both regarded each other as an enemy that they wanted to get rid of quickly.

When Bonima called on the entire industry to issue a joint statement to boycott 360, Keniu, Qianxun, and Jinshan all signed the statement.

Therefore, at Bonima's sincere invitation, Fu Sheng quickly announced that the company would soon release a product called "361 Special Police".

Ironically, the various functions claimed by 361 Special Police are to speed up 360, clean up 360 junk, remove 360 ​​pop-ups, protect system software, etc., which are exactly the same as the methods used by QQ Bodyguard to clean up QQ.

However, unlike 360, which suddenly came online, 361 Special Police cannot be online yet because it takes time to develop software.

360, on the other hand, came prepared and completed all the development work of KouKou Bodyguard early.

Zhou Hongyi also hesitated whether to throw this hugely lethal nuclear bomb. In the end, it was Bonima's "strongness" that did not know how to praise others that angered the red cannon.

Pengcheng.

At Penguin Company, a anxious Bonima and a group of senior executives are having a meeting.

This time, Bonima could no longer maintain his calmness as before, and smacked the table angrily, "Zhou Hongyi, this bastard, has started to use illegal means to deal with us! He must be sent in and kept there, and he must not Let this scourge be allowed to harm people outside again.”

After saying that, Bonima looked at Liu Zhiping with burning eyes, "Martin, you go to the Yamen now to report the case and ask the police to arrest Zhou Hongyi across the province immediately!"

Liu Zhiping looked solemn and did not answer, as if he was weighing something in his mind.

Zhang Zhidong was relatively honest and said with a frown, "Boni, you won't arrest anyone, right?"

Upon hearing this, Bonima immediately became angry, "If 360 is not killed quickly, we will be the ones lying on the ground!"

Xu Chenhua comforted him: "Bonnie, don't worry. Zhou Hongyi will definitely have to deal with it, but we need to find a valid reason."

Seeing Bonima's eyes turning to him, Xu Chenhua explained: "Coral Polyps QQ, Bonima, do you still remember?

The nature of KouKou Bodyguard is similar to that of Coral QQ. They are both plug-ins and infringe on QQ's software copyright. "

Chen Yidan studied law and obviously knew the law better than others. He quickly shook his head and said: "It's a bit far-fetched to talk about software copyright. Coral QQ is modified on the basis of QQ, while QQBouncer is independent of QQ. external products.

The most important thing is that the bodyguard service is free and there is no profit-making behavior. I am afraid it will be difficult to convict 360 on this basis. "

"It won't work this way, that won't work either. Are you just going to watch 360 destroy it like this?"

Bonima said angrily: “Currently, the number of downloads of KouKou Bodyguard exceeds three million every day, and it is growing at an extremely fast rate.

In just two months or even a month, no QQ users will watch ads anymore.

No advertising means no income. How can we maintain the company's operations?

Li Yikai has been calling me frantically these past two days, putting pressure on me and asking me to handle this crisis immediately! "

Upon hearing Li Yikai's name, all the executives present frowned.

It's different from the past. Now there is an extra emperor on the penguin's head. Moreover, this emperor also likes to point fingers, as if he is afraid that the penguin's empire will be ruined, which is very annoying.

Liu Zhiping waved his hand towards Bonima, "Bony, don't talk about this anymore, just leave it to me to take care of Li Yikai.

If he said something unpleasant to you, you should be more open-minded. The situation facing Penguin is very serious now. We must tolerate each other for the sake of the country and not start internal strife. "

Bonima let out a long breath, "Oh, I know all this, but I've been under too much psychological pressure recently."

Looking at Bonima, whose face was exhausted and even had dark circles under his eyes, a group of founders and senior executives fell silent.

Some time ago, I was very ambitious to crush WeChat and defeat 360. However, I attacked from both ends, but neither end went well, and I was attacked by soldiers.

Seeing that the morale of everyone around him was a little low, Liu Zhiping quickly stood up and cheered, "Everyone is optimistic that Penguin still has a lot of cards that he can play, and he is far from exhausted."

Hearing this, everyone including Bonima looked at Liu Zhiping expectantly.

"I have a plan here, but it's not very mature yet. We need to brainstorm and improve it together."

Liu Zhiping paused, glanced at everyone, and then said: "This is a plan that kills one thousand enemies and damages oneself eight hundred. The advantages and disadvantages are equally obvious."

"Martin, stop being so pretentious. Tell me what your plan is." Ponima looked impatient, eager to resolve the turmoil created by 360.

"360 Company itself is not under our control. Whether we threaten to sue them or mobilize public opinion to condemn them, we cannot make 360 ​​stop.

The only way is to hurt them!

How can we hurt them? We can only trade injuries for injuries to see who can't hold on first! "
