"I'm very happy to have such an interesting conversation with you!" Li Jiuding sipped his coffee and looked at Fang Tian with a smile on his face.
Big Brother's company was an Internet media company that specialized in IT technology media and information services. It was the most influential IT media information website in the country. All the IT elites in the country were members of his website.
Li Jiuding was very curious and asked, "Who's your fiancée?"
Fang Tian smiled and said, "You should know her. She's the head of the Siskin Group."
"What?" Li Jiuding's eyes widened and said, "Kim Woo-yeon, Miss Kim is your fiancée?"
"Yes." Fang Tian nodded with a smile.
Li Jiuding said, "It's only a matter of time before you become successful in this life."
Fang Tian shook his head and said, "Money can only mean that there's enough water. It doesn't mean that success will be guaranteed. If you want to build up the entire ecosystem, it's not enough to rely on sufficient water. "
"Yes." Li Jiuding nodded in agreement.
Fang Tian did not seem like a student. He was more like an old fox in the industry.
Li Jiuding suddenly thought of a question and said, "There are two major categories in IT, hardware and software. Many entrepreneurs have hardware interests, but why do you prefer software?"
"It's a long story." Fang Tian said, "To put it simply, software is more sticky than hardware and has more tenacious vitality!"
"What do you mean?" Li Jiuding asked. It was the first time he heard such a thing. Fang Tian had surprised him too much.
Fang Tian swirled his coffee cup and said, "Let me give you an example. Two companies. Both companies are in the communication industry. The first is a hardware manufacturer of mobile phones, and the other is a company that makes social chat software. This hardware manufacturer of mobile phones may decline and be eliminated with each generation. It's difficult for hardware products to be sticky. This time, I used this brand of mobile phone. Next time, I want to switch to another brand. There's not much stickiness to speak of. "
Fang Tian cleared his throat and continued, "But what about social chat software? It was easy for users to form a habit and not be willing to leave. This was because in this software, they had already formed their own social circle and were bound to too many things. What was even more frightening was that once the software had a large number of users, it would only become more and more sticky. Later opponents would not be able to find a way to overthrow it. No matter how times change, no matter how new hardware products are, it can still live comfortably in different times, on different platforms! "
This was QQ. Fang Tian didn't say the last sentence because he didn't know.
As a big shot in the industry, Li Jiuding was experienced and knowledgeable in the field of software and internet. However, Fang Tian's words stunned him for a long time. There was too much new information.
There were still some things that Fang Tian did not say. What was the competitiveness of the iPhone? Was it his hardware?
No, in terms of hardware, Apple does not have any advantage over Android.
It had been around for more than ten years and still had a large number of loyal fans all over the world because of its operating system and the ecosystem of applications formed in the system.
Fang Tian took a sip of coffee and looked at Li Jiuding opposite him. "Soft doesn't mean that it's weak and can be bullied. It has more tension. For example, if a person's cerebral blood vessels harden, won't they burst easily? "
"Haha! Very philosophical! "Li Jiuding praised. He felt that the young man opposite him was not simple.
"Other than stickiness. Also … "Fang Tian took a sip of coffee and said seriously," The profit margin of software is higher than hardware manufacturing. A 5% profit margin for hardware is already very impressive. However, the profit margin for software is usually 20% to 30%. Therefore, I'm determined to make a living as a software developer for the rest of my life. "
"This is what you mean by living off a woman, right?"
Fang Tian smiled. "Yes."
"Haha! Interesting! "Li Jiuding laughed. After some thought, he took out a photo from his pocket and placed it on the table. "Do you know who this is?"
Fang Tian looked at the photo. The man was quite handsome. He wore a white suit and looked like a Prince Charming.
"He looks familiar. I think I've seen him somewhere before."
Li Jiuding said, "Maybe you don't know much about the hardware industry. He's Bai Wanjun! He's the king of the hardware industry in China. His company produces almost all kinds of electronic products. "
King of the hardware industry? Fang Tian remembered. Bai Wanjun was the one who gave the New Year's greetings on stage on New Year's Eve. Some people even said that he was the king of the hardware industry and was the most capable young man in the country.
Fang Tian paid close attention to Bai Wanjun in the photo. He was in his twenties and should be the heir to his family business.
Li Jiuding smiled. "Bai Wanjun is quite capable. He's now in charge of a company worth tens of billions. He's handsome and is the king of the hardware industry. I heard that he's also one of Miss Kim's admirers. "
Wouldn't Miss Jin's pursuer be my rival in love? Fang Tian looked at Bai Wanjun in the photo and became alert. He had to be wary of this person!
Li Jiuding said, "Do you think that your software business can surpass the king of the hardware industry?"
Fang Tian took a sip of his coffee and smiled. "I can't tell you. I'm worried that if I tell you, you'll think that I'm bragging!"
"Haha!" Li Jiuding laughed.
Li Jiuding suddenly reached over and patted Fang Tian's shoulder. "I'm on your side because I'm also a software programmer. When I started my business in China, many people rolled their eyes at me. But I persevered. Now, I've proven that I'm on the right path. "
Li Jiuding was a prominent figure in the industry, but he did not put on airs and spoke with sincerity. Fang Tian had a good impression of him.
"There are still many opportunities for the internet industry in the future. Mr. Li, have you ever thought of starting a second business?"
Li Jiuding shook his head. "I'm already in my forties. To be honest, I don't have the passion for it. The internet in the future belongs to you young people, or maybe it's your world! "
"Haha, let's hope so." Fang Tian laughed.
"Alright, that's the end of the conversation." Li Jiuding smiled. "I'm very happy to have an in-depth conversation with you for an hour. It's refreshing. Your words will be published in the new week's issue of 'Strong Science and Technology Weekly'. "
Fang Tian was stunned. He did not expect it to be an interview.
Li Jiuding only wanted to have a chat with him. He did not expect it to be an interview.
Interviews were not supposed to be done by a big boss like him, but he found the conversation with Fang Tian to be very interesting. It was very suitable to be published in the Technology Weekly.
A conversation turned into an interview just like that.
"Is your name Fang Tian?" Li Jiuding asked with a pen in his hand.
Fang Tian nodded. "Yes, but don't publish my real name. I'm a low-key person. Just publish my online name. "
"What's your online name?"
Fang Tian thought about it. He had always used the same online name in his previous life. "I'm King!"
"Thank you, King, for accepting my interview. I believe … "Li Jiuding stood up and shook his hand." One day, your name will shake the world! "
Li Jiuding's voice was a very magnetic baritone. His words were very shocking!
"I'm very happy to be recognized by a big boss in the industry!" Fang Tian smiled. "But now, I'm just an unknown person."
