With ten thousand phones as the opening, the atmosphere in the venue reached a climax.
Originally, the annual meeting's process was not like this.
At the beginning, there would be a cultural performance, followed by the distribution of prizes.
But since Li Dong had already said so, the organizing team for the annual meeting could only go according to Li Dong's wishes.
But Li Dong not only changed the time, but also the target, which caused a lot of trouble for the organizers.
Fortunately, the employees' entry numbers were sorted. Helplessly, the backstage could not screen them one by one, so they could only remove the employee numbers and start the lucky draw again.
While the backstage was changing the program, Liu Qi ran over, sweating profusely. She begged, "General Manager Li, please don't say so much later. We've already arranged everything, but with this, it's easy to make a mistake. This is a live broadcast, please give us a way out. "
Li Dong said disapprovingly, "This is also a test for you. If you can't even pass such a small test, how can you take on a bigger responsibility? Not even a hundred thousand people. As a large company, don't we even have the ability to organize this? "
Liu Qi was a little tired. Following this person was not just a little annoying.
Many times, they really wanted to beat up Li Dong.
Liu Qi could not help but look at Er Ma. These two cowards, didn't they say they wanted to beat up Li Dong a long time ago?
How long has it been? Just do it!
If they beat up Li Dong, half of the people in Far Away would be happy to see it.
Of course, if Li Dong beat them up until they begged for mercy, the entire Far Away would be cheering.
Fantasy was fantasy, but reality was reality.
Liu Qi did not have the time to continue arguing with Li Dong. Later, she would not give Li Dong a chance to go on stage. She still had to do her own things to avoid trouble.
Phones worth tens of millions, she could not let anyone find a loophole.
…
On stage, a few big screens had already started to light up.
The host said loudly, "Now, the entry numbers of the employees who are not Far Away have been entered into the system. I have to mention that the large data center project Far Away has entered the trial operation stage.
Tonight, although it was just a small lucky draw, it was not a big deal.
Far away's most cutting-edge technology, including the following series of activities, were all related to Far away's big data intelligence system.
According to Mr. Li Dong, Big Data would support the entire Far away System in the future.
Living in this world was inseparable from data.
Data analysis would bring major changes to society in the future.
This was a technological innovation, a brainstorm!
Lastly, the future is Far away. Only when there is Far away can there be a future! "
"Alright!"
The audience burst into applause. Unbeknownst to them, Liu Chuanzhi came over and said with a smile, "Dongzi, is this an artist under your company? The way I see it, you can be the person in charge of our training department. Are you willing to part with your treasure? "
Li Dong smiled and said, "Boss Liu, you're not young anymore. Take it easy."
Liu Chuanzhi's face immediately darkened. He glared at him and said, "You bastard, what dirty words are you saying to an old man like me?"
Li Dong said with a wronged expression, "Boss Liu, I didn't say anything. You're thinking too much."
Liu Chuanzhi did not know whether to laugh or cry. He could not be bothered with him and turned to chat with the others.
This guy, do not talk business with him in this kind of situation. If you talk business, he can lead you into the ditch.
While the preparations for the lucky draw were still on stage, some of the guests below the stage began to discuss.
Some were discussing the topic that Li Dong had shared earlier, while others were discussing the big data system that the host had just mentioned.
The concept of big data was proposed in 2008.
The so-called big data was actually not complicated. Its purpose was not to grasp large amounts of data, but to professionally process meaningful data.
In other words, big data was actually a kind of deep processing and data mining.
Whether it was traditional industries or the Internet industry, they all needed this kind of data analysis and mining.
However, big data was not a simple problem. The initial investment of this thing was not low, and the benefits were limited. Ordinary companies did not have the capital to do this.
Nowadays, there were not many domestic companies that were doing big data and cloud computing.
More Internet companies and financial institutions were doing this. Of course, tonight's lucky draw was not as mysterious as the host said. It was nothing more than flattery for Far away.
While everyone was talking, Ma Yun stopped thinking about Ali's tenth anniversary celebration. He walked to Li Dong and whispered, "Far away's cloud computing can enter the practical stage?"
Li Dong smiled and said, "Guess."
Ma Yun frowned and said, "I'm not interested in guessing. Your cloud computing is not systematic yet. I think it is only in the most superficial stage of application. I'm afraid that even Faraway Group itself can't support it. "
Li Dong smiled and said, "You don't have to worry about this. In short, it is faster than you. I can't help it. I have money, and I'm willing to spend money. Didn't you establish the Ali Research Institute and Ali Cloud Computing? I heard that it is still an empty shell, and there are only a few data centers. I say, if you don't have the money to invest, why are you making such a big name? "
At this moment, the famous Qiandao Lake data center and Zhangbei data center did not exist yet. There might not even be a plan.
At the beginning of 2009, big data was not Ali's main focus.
Ali did not have the ability to invest a large amount in this area.
Far away did not invest much, but since 2007, Far away began to invest in this area.
Whether it was big data or cloud computing, the premise of everything must be based on the hardware foundation.
Only then would you be qualified to talk about data analysis and data mining.
If they didn't even have the hardware facilities, then everything was just on paper.
Ma Yun was too lazy to argue with him. He thought about it and said, "I know about your data center construction, but it has not formed a cluster of industries, and it is not competitive. In the next few years, I think this kind of decentralized data center is most likely to be eliminated and left empty. What do you think about it? "
Li Dong raised his eyebrows and said, "Hold on for now, we'll talk about it when we have the money."
"Are you interested? Let's work together again. If we invest in a large scale data center now, it will put pressure on both of us. If we want to form a scale and provide better and better data analysis, the investment will be in the tens of figures. The current market is not enough to absorb it. If we invest alone, it will be a waste. If we work together, we can more or less absorb it and make full use of the resources. "
Li Dong smiled and nodded. "Sure, but let's make this clear. You only have the right to use it, not the right to operate it."
Ma Yun's face darkened, and he turned to leave.
There was another important point in the construction of a data center, and that was the data itself.
Data sharing was the main source of big data.
Was Ali willing to share some data with Far away?
Not possible!
Similarly, Far Away was not willing to share data with Ali.
But from the looks of it, if they were to share data, Ali would have the advantage. That was why Ma Yun made this suggestion.
In the end, Li Dong said that they did not have the right to operate it, and that extinguished Ma Yun's hope.
When the time came, they would not be able to share Ali's data Far Away, but they would not be able to share Far Away's data. Only a fool would do that.
If they really wanted to share it, they could consider it.
Far Away's database might not be the largest in Hua Xia, but it was extremely rich.
PP, Weibo, Million Cartoon, Far Away Mall. Far Away had a lot of customers.
Even the bank hoped that Far Away could share data. In fact, there were many companies that coveted Far Away's database.
But everyone just thought about it. It was very difficult, and it would not be easy to steal such a huge amount of data.
The VIPs below the stage did not keep moving around. After all, it was the annual meeting. If they kept moving around, it would be disrespectful to Far Away.
As the lucky draw on the stage came to an end, everyone returned to their seats.
Following the confirmation of the numbers, hundreds of employees wearing cheongsams walked out from backstage with trays in their hands.
In the trays, there were stacks of mobile phone packaging.
Cheers and shouts of joy could be heard at the scene.
Far Away's executives were having a headache. In fact, the reason why this segment was placed at the end was to prevent chaos at the venue, so that everyone would not be in the mood to continue watching the show.
Now that the mobile phones had been distributed, how many people would still be in the mood to watch the show?
No matter how much they complained, it was a foregone conclusion, and everyone could only accept it.
Far Away was very efficient. The mobile phones were distributed regionally, and the distribution ended in about 20 minutes.
Those who got it rejoiced, while those who did not could only be envious and wait for the next round of activities.
At this moment, the emcee began to quiet the venue, and the first performance began.
Many artists from East Star Entertainment came this time. They did not go on stage alone. Seven or eight people went on stage at once, and they began to sing together.
After all, the people on the stage were all stars, and it was rare to see them. The disturbance below the stage gradually subsided, and everyone's eyes were on the stage.
Li Dong was not idle at this time. He chatted with several government officials for a while, and then began to look for his target. From time to time, he would whisper a few words in the crowd.
…
On the other side.
Shen Qian was accompanying Li Dong's parents and two children to eat and watch the show.
At this time, a figure suddenly appeared on the seat. As soon as Hu Xiaorui sat down, she smiled and said, "Hello, Uncle and Auntie. Xiaoyu, Shitou, did you miss me?"
As soon as Little Shitou saw Hu Xiaorui coming, he immediately squeezed into her arms with a smile.
Hu Xiaorui was overjoyed. The little girl was giving face. Next time, I won't steal your snacks.
After accompanying Little Shitou for a while, Hu Xiaorui looked at Cao Fang and said with a smile, "Auntie, the view here is not very good. Why don't you sit with me? Li Dong is too much. Why did he arrange for Uncle and Auntie to sit here? "
Cao Fang also knew Hu Xiaorui, but they did not meet many times. They had only met once or twice in the provincial party committee's courtyard.
Seeing that Hu Xiaorui was so polite, Cao Fang quickly smiled and said, "It's okay, it's okay. It's good here. It's quiet with fewer people."
"That seems to be true. Our place is very noisy. Auntie, why don't I sit here and accompany you to chat? Do you know those celebrities on the stage? Auntie, do you usually watch TV series and variety shows? These celebrities are all artists signed by the company that Li Dong and I opened. Why don't I let them accompany you and Uncle to chat later? "
"…"
At this time, Shen Qian on the side couldn't help laughing. This stinky girl was deliberately ignoring her.
Did she think that she could please Li Dong's parents by doing this?
After waiting for a while, Shen Qian chuckled and said, "Xiaorui, don't be polite. Uncle and Auntie don't chase after celebrities. Also, we're watching the show, so keep your voice down. "
Hu Xiaorui immediately pouted, glanced at her, and snorted inwardly.
Shen Bingshan was too hateful!
While she was angry, Little Shitou, who was in her arms, said happily, "Sister Xiaorui, I like celebrities. Let's go play with them, okay?"
Hu Xiaorui was speechless. She had doted on this little girl for nothing. Wasn't she making trouble?
As expected, Shen Qian took advantage of the situation and said with a smile, "Xiaorui, Xiaoyu and Shitou both like these. Why don't you take them backstage to play for a while? I'll accompany Uncle and Auntie to watch the show."
"I …"
Hu Xiaorui looked unhappy, but when she saw Cao Fang and her husband looking at her, Hu Xiaorui immediately smiled and said, "Okay, then let's go watch first. Uncle and Auntie, I'll come back later to chat with you."
With that, Hu Xiaorui held one of them in each hand and glared at Shen Qian before reluctantly leaving.
After she left, Cao Fang curiously asked, "I've seen this girl a few times. Is she a friend of Dongzi?"
Shen Qian said with a smile, "She's a business partner. Her parents are also businessmen and have business dealings with Far away. She's a bit playful and has a good relationship with Little Shitou and Xiaoyu. "
Cao Fang nodded and didn't ask further.
Shen Qian laughed inwardly, 'Little girl, I've already put you in the same generation as Little Shitou and Xiaoyu. Let's see how you can fawn on them now.'
…
With the start of the show, the activities of the annual party also began.
For example, during the show's rotation, a large QR code appeared on the big screen, and people could receive red packets after scanning the code.
Tens of thousands of people raised their phones to scan the code, which was unprecedented at this time.
During this period, Far away's technical department also did a few small-scale fixed-point red packets, which only covered a small area of the Pingchuan Sports Center.
As long as they opened the PP at this time, they could receive red packets.
The small ones were only a few yuan, while the big ones were hundreds of thousands.
However, this kind of fixed-point red packet was not very mature yet, so the coverage was a little off. Some people didn't receive it, but some off-site PP users could also receive red packets if they opened the PP at this time.
Many lucky users who were not far from the Pingchuan Sports Center also received red packets and began to show off on the Internet.
There were even some audience members who casually tested it through the screen, scanning the code through the screen and actually received red packets by chance.
At this time, many people became interested, and the number of viewers watching the live broadcast of the annual party increased.
Far away's annual party became a test site for new technology at this time, Far away's.
The in-depth exploration of the red packet function, the sharing of big data, and a small-scale fixed-point trial.
At the scene, Far away Logistics even demonstrated a simulated small automatic sorting device, which was the first demonstration of an unmanned sorting system in the country.
Seeing this scene, many of the courier companies and logistics companies began to have serious expressions.
They knew that Far away was currently only testing, and it was also only implementing the unmanned sorting system on a small simulator.
However, since even the simulator had appeared, the real large-scale application was likely to be coming soon!
Once it was really launched by Far away, could these courier companies still compete with Far away?
Whether it was present or not, the faces of the logistics industry tycoons were gloomy.
And Ma Yun, Liu Qiangdong, and the others who were present also had serious expressions.
Far away was constantly undergoing a revolution!
Before they started to enter this field, Far away had already begun experimenting.
In this annual meeting, ordinary people would probably only see a rare sight, but they saw the strength displayed in the distance, in all directions, and in all fields.
Internet, express delivery, and even offline retail!
Since Li Dong invited so many heads of retail companies to attend the annual party, there would definitely be some action later.
The more they thought about it, the heavier their hearts became.
To them, this was a deterrent and a blow.
Of course, at present, Far away's technology had not reached the point where they could not catch up. Li Dong did not have too much money to burn in this area, and most of them were just dabbling.
But no matter what, Li Dong had opened up new ideas and new directions for them.
Many people were a little puzzled. Was it not better to use these things as trump cards?
Or was it like what Li Dong said, that he was really sharing everything?
The others were suspicious, and so was Chang Yuanshan. He said with some confusion, "General Manager Li, in my opinion, these are all applications of new technology. It doesn't seem to have entered the operational stage for the time being. Isn't it inappropriate to show it now?"
Li Dong said with a smile, "Mr. Chang, what's the saying again? There's strength in numbers.
Actually, these technologies are not too complicated, but to a company, developing these technologies is too costly.
If we rely on ourselves, we'll have to spend at least billions to achieve results.
But it's different if everyone develops it together.
It's the market, after all. It's only good if it's big.
I don't have much of an advantage if I do it alone. When the entire market expands, we, as the pioneers, will be able to obtain greater benefits. "
Chang Yuanshan said with some regret, "Then we should look for Jiangbei's government to cooperate. There are many enterprises in Jiangbei …"
Li Dong smiled but did not say anything. How many enterprises were there in Jiangbei?
How many well-known enterprises were there?
When would there be real results from cooperating with enterprises in Jiangbei?
Only when the entire industry's market expanded would there be a chance to eat meat.
And using this annual meeting as an opportunity to launch it was also considered a deterrent. Some things were not technical problems, but hardware that could not meet the standards.
A single technology development was not as powerful as imagined. Once it was put into production, it could produce a shocking effect.
Today, when these technologies appeared, some hardware manufacturers would immediately follow suit and analyze it.
And this was what Li Dong needed!
Mobile Internet. Currently, the network was not a big problem. The key was that there were too few terminals.
This time, Feng Yu's actions had made all the major terminal manufacturers anxious. Not long later, there will be a large number of smartphones in the market.
With market demand, there will be efficiency. This was an unchanging truth.
OPPO smartphones had the upper hand now, and its reputation was getting bigger. How can Huawei, ZTE, and the rest of the companies not be anxious?
Li Dong also needed the mobile Internet era to arrive faster. His next series of plans will need the support of the mobile Internet.
Without the mobile Internet, how are they going to play with internet finance? How are they going to promote WeChat on a large scale? How are they going to make plans for the shopping festival?
Without automated and unmanned sorting machines, how are Far away express delivery companies going to maintain their efficiency?
The expansion of the online shopping market was not just a matter of e-commerce websites. There were many related industries involved.
To further promote online and offline was not something a single company can do.
All these required the cooperation of many industries. Far away will not have a large scale advantage.
But Li Dong did not mind. What he wanted was to expand the entire market and not just one company Far away.
So what if one company Far away took over the entire online shopping and express delivery market?
Year 2009 had just started, and based on Feng Yu's previous life, the current market share was not even 7%.
Rather than fighting for 7% of the market share, it was better to expand the market share to 100%.
By then, even if Far away could only get a small portion of the market share, it would still be several times bigger than the current market share.
Another thing Li Dong was curious about was if he could push the market seven to eight years earlier. How will the market develop in the future?
This feeling of the unknown was sometimes frightening, but at other times, it was extremely exciting.
