Liu Yun’s investment in his hometown has three projects: playground, integrated commercial plaza, and resort.

This is a reward for his hometown after returning to his hometown.

The amusement park is a cooperation with Green City, and the trial business is almost three years away.

As for the integrated commercial square, Yoyo is responsible for management, as well as rent collection, and will not participate in the operation and sales.

The resort, Yunhan Valley, has also been open for half a year and is still in a state of loss.

These industries have nothing to do with Yoyo, but they belong to Liu Yun's personal assets.

Although they are in a slightly loss state, the land and rent will continue to rise in the next few years, Liu Yun is not in a hurry to ask for a profit, this small money he can afford to lose.

What makes him more gratified is that his girlfriend is actively proposed this time, rather than passively choosing, at least she has made her own decision on the choice after graduate school.

...

2009, at the end of August.

The second intelligent machine that has been prepared for a long time is about to be released, and Liu Yun took Zhang Xiaolong to a special trip to California.

This time, in addition to discussing with Android management the design of the system and how to further optimize it.

Of course, the most important thing is the financing of Yoyo mobile phones.

The full name of yo-yo mobile phone is yo-yo terminal equipment co., LTD., which is now an independent subsidiary wholly owned by yo-yo group.

However, this is only temporary, after the opening of the mobile Internet curtain, the era of intelligent machines with irreversible trends coming, Liu Yun's layout wants to be fully realized, and it is not enough to rely on the funds and connections of the group company.

Yoyo is not Huawei, there is no need to go the other way.

Since the mobile phone expressed its financing intention, venture capital institutions at home and abroad have flocked to consult on related matters.

After screening major venture capital institutions, Liu Yun targeted the first financing target on the well-known Google.

In addition to financial help, Google can also give itself what it wants in terms of technology and sales channels.

A year later, Liu returned to Mountain View, California, where he met with their founder and CEO, Sergey Brin, at Google’s headquarters.

On the just-released Forbes Rich List, he reached a staggering eighth place, with a fortune of $23 billion.

His wealth is almost equivalent to today’s yo-yo valuation.

"Hello, Mr. Liu, I often hear reports about you even in the United States."Sergey Brin smiled and Liu Yun shook his hand and said, “The American media always compares you to Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg.You are as young, as talented, and with a jumping mindset.I believe that the future of this world belongs to you young people.”

Liu Yun has always insisted that the words of "the future of this world belongs to you young people" are purely a bowl of unnutritious chicken soup, which deceives generations of innocent young people.

Many young people will grow old, and then they still have nothing, and these predecessors will still repeat the words to the younger ones.

“Perhaps, Mr. Brin.”Liu Yun shrugged his shoulders and replied, "But Google's strength, even if we young people are few generations, can't challenge its advantages in the slightest."

“That’s not necessarily.”Sergey Brin shook his head, “Like Baidu, although they are an emerging company for us, its rise momentum is very fierce.”We have always been in the search engine market in Huaxia.

"Moreover, they are now also high-profile into the field of artificial intelligence, and they don't want to see us Google alone in this area."

He frowned and clearly understood what the other said.

According to rumors, Google's expansion in the Chinese market has been helped, and there are even rumors that Google may be ready to withdraw from the Huaxia market.

Although Google executives have been rumored that this is a hole, only the arrival of Liu Yun understand that the company's departure has entered the countdown.

And as soon as they left, there was no time, at least at the time of Liu Yun's rebirth in 2018, although rumors about Google's return to the Chinese market were sometimes told, but there was still no sign of it.

From the perspective of search engines, this company is undoubtedly more pure than Baidu.

There are no bid rankings, and there are not so many dazzling advertisements.

Almost until 2010, Liu Yun had been used to using Google, and after 2010, he had to use Baidu.

What makes him even more mad is that since 2017, many of the results on the Baidu search box have pointed to Baidu's public number.Although the company's public relations letter swear that we did not move any hands or feet in the search technology, the search point is random, but the eyes of the blind know that they are open to say blind words.(Everyone should be very interested in this.)

Monopolies are the rule-making as they please, and that is their hegemony.

Liu Yun thought of this and replied: "Mr. Brin, Yoyo and Baidu do not merge much in the business, the only intersection is that they have a small part of the shares of Jiangnan in the era, about 5%."

Originally, Baidu had about 15% of shares in Yoyo Music, but after the reorganization of the subsidiary, Yoyo Music and Youku, and YOYO voice have been merged to the banner of Times Jiangnan.

Even if Baidu's old Li is dissatisfied, but Yoyo is a major shareholder, can be forced to carry out, his shares can only be diluted to 5%.

What makes old Li depressed is that Jiangnan is the only loss-making subsidiary of Yoyo, not only has no profit every year, but also has to follow the investment, and there is no right to speak, but if it is not invested, this share will be further diluted.

The only gratifying thing is that the valuation of Jiangnan in the era is rising, and after the number of financing and IPO, their stocks should be able to appreciate a lot.

"Of course, Yoyo has cleaned up Baidu's shares on Weibo."Liu Yun added a word indifferently.

"That happened last year."Sergey Brin nodded with satisfaction and said, “President Willow, you know.”At that time, I was on the other side of the ocean, and I was always watching the dynamics of this thing through the Internet.You handle it very well, and I appreciate your strong style of work.So when the phone wanted to raise money, we Google also showed enough enthusiasm."

"In short, I have always believed that only the two companies with close ideas will have a good cooperation scenario."Google and Yoyo have similarities, we like to be more true, have their own ideals and pursuits, will not blindly profit first."

And he laughed, but he laughed.

The so-called enemy of the enemy is a friend, Yo-Yo and Baidu, the two giants of the company fell, Google's side must be happy.So the rich man looked at Yoyo a lot.

"Mr. Brin, it's not hidden."Liu Yun looked at the other party and continued, "I personally have not appreciated Baidu's bidding ranking, as well as the commercialization policy of posting.One of the key points of the outbreak of our contradictions in the last year, two companies with different ideas cannot cooperate all the time after all.”

Sergey Brin thought about it and said, “Yes, I don’t agree with their model, even if it’s a good profit.”Google can't do that much, and now we feel that the company's living space in China is getting smaller and smaller."

Liu Yun sighed for a few seconds and said seriously: "Mr. Brin, to be honest, Yoyo is just a larger company, it can't control the policy of the country, and for a great company like Google, even in the Huaxia market, this period is not very successful, can not cover up your light and glory."

“What’s more...” he melodiously picked up his cup and took a sip of coffee and continued, “Google can continue to show your presence in China in another way, such as your Android system and our Yoyo phone.”

“Yes also!”Sergey Brin was also happy with his smile, "Mr. Liu, I have observed the first yo-yo intelligent machine, sales more than we think, obviously you than the Taiwan company, HTC, is a better partner."

"Of course, we have that confidence."Liu Yun continued, "Although there are many gaps in the yo-yo smartphone compared with the iPhone, we are also catching up, but the technical difficulties are also inseparable from the help of Google."The advantages of price can sometimes make up for the gap in the system, but this is not a decision.”

The iPhone 3GS, known as a revolutionary, has indeed brought a revolutionary impact to the industry.

Mobile enthusiasts around the world are holding Android and IOS system to compare, hardcore Apple fans also a number of Android shortcomings.

Sergey Brin also understood that the young rich man sitting across from Huaxia, thousands of miles to come here, his top priority is the financing of smart phones.

“Mr. Liu, tell me about your idea.”He took a deep breath and said.

A word from Liu Yun really hit his heart.Even if one day Google’s search engine had to leave the Huaxia market, the great Google could still exert its influence in another form.For example, financing a promising company, such as the yo-yo mobile phone in front of you.

The potential of Huaxia's Internet market is unlimited, and in the foreseeable future, it is likely to surpass Europe and become the second largest market in the world after the United States.

Liu Yun cleared his throat and said: "First of all, I hope to get financing of not less than 100 million US dollars, I need to have a comprehensive upgrade to the design, workmanship, and hardware configuration of the phone."

In terms of price, I plan to try to pull down the profit as low as possible to increase sales, and continue to seize the market, when the slow launch of a slightly higher price of high-end smart machine.

I need to fully roll out the sales channels online and offline, and set up a physical store called Yoyo Home.

In the future, I’m not just thinking about making phones, I’m trying to build a web-based electronics ecosystem through Internet thinking.

Smartphones are the core, but not the only ones, we can also have tablets, notebooks, brand machines.

There may even be appliances, speakers, projectors, sweeping robots and so on.

“Do you want to go into e-commerce as well?”Sergey Brin was a little confused and asked for an interest, "Remember that you should invest in Jingdong, another giant company in China."

“E-commerce?It's hard, but it doesn't conflict with JD."Liu Yun smiled faintly, "I do in the future, about three years to build a yo-yo mall, which belongs to all the series of yo-yo smart phones with their own APP software, can not be deleted."On this website, it is a self-produced idea product.

I want to make Yoyo better for those loyal users to provide better service.”

Sergey Brin frowned, “This model is adventurous, and it’s hard to be strong and big if you only buy your own products.”

Liu Yun said: "It is a bit risky, but the premise of my move is that our Yo-Yo mobile phones use a large enough number of users, and a large part of them will come to buy our products."The original intention of the yo-yo mall is not to compare with Taobao or Jingdong, it only sells our own products.In the future, the official authentic channels, Jingdong self-operated stores will have some yo-yo products, Taobao mall flagship stores will have some, but most of the electronic goods will be sold in our own mall.

"Of course, more than that, we will continue to add more yo-yo imprints to the factory settings, such as yo-yo music, yo-yo application market, Youku video, Jingdong network, and ... yoxin, maybe there are more in the future."

Sergey Brin heard this, can not help but a little moved, this is a huge plan, not even a year or two can be completed, but he can think of one day, if someone buys a yo-yo mobile phone, he does not even need to even download a small APP software, because the mobile phone with the software can almost meet the requirements.

Yo-Yo and Google are both large companies, the two helmsmen talk very invested, and there is not too much entanglement in the amount of financing.

Sergey Brin also understood that Google's exit from the Chinese market had entered the countdown, but Liu Yun's words made him determined.Google needs to find a suitable company to let itself continue to show its presence in the Chinese market, and after some talk, Yoyo is indeed the best and only partner today.

"Mr. Brin, there is another important thing that I have deliberately done here for the very purpose of my very purpose."He said with a smile.

"There's something else going on, I'll say it straight."Sergey Brin laughed.

"For a very, very important app software that I think."Liu Yun mysteriously smiled, "I need Google's technical assistance."

"Just an app software, can make Liu always attach so much importance to?"Sergey Brin was also interested.He even felt that this young man was interested in this APP software, even a little higher than the smartphone.

Liu Yun pointed to the middle-aged man who had not spoken around him and said, "Before this, let me introduce it first, this is the head of the Youxin project team, Mr. Zhang Xiaolong."
