"360 really got rid of 3721."
"What the f * ck, 360 really did that?"
360's removal of 3721 as a plug-in shocked countless people.
Especially those who knew that Zhou Hongyi was the founder of 3721. They were dumbfounded.
After selling 3721 to someone else, he created a software to remove 3721.
This was simply cheating Yahoo.
"I finally understand why Zhou Hongyi is a big shot."
"Why?"
"Why else? To be able to do such a shameless thing, he's definitely amazing."
"Okay, I'm a fan of 360 now."
"Well, just because of Zhou Hongyi's shamelessness, I'm going to use 360."
Of course, even the three major anti-virus software companies did not think of such a shameless thing.
They were still leading the charge, thinking that Zhou Hongyi would not dare to mess with these plug-in giants, let alone remove 3721. But now they could see that Zhou Hongyi was not human. This guy was capable of doing anything.
Not only did their lead not affect 360, but it also did not affect 360.
On the contrary, 360's download volume increased greatly after removing 3721.
Many users wanted to try this shameless system security software.
This market performance also made the three major anti-virus software companies very worried.
On the same day, the three major anti-virus software companies held a company meeting.
"Everyone, 360's market has increased greatly. It will definitely affect our market in the future. How should we deal with it?"
Jinshan's chairman, Qiu Bojun, said at the meeting.
"Boss Qiu, 360's methods are too shameless. I believe Yahoo will not let this go."
"This is Yahoo's business. It has nothing to do with us. Moreover, it doesn't matter whether Yahoo and 360 fight or not. What's important is that if we don't take any countermeasures, I'm afraid they will enter the anti-virus market sooner or later. "
360 was a system security software, but its current business was only removing garbage and plugins.
It had not entered the anti-virus market yet.
However, anyone could see that as long as 360 developed steadily, they would definitely enter this market in the future.
Anti-virus was the most important business of Jinshan, and Qiu Bojun valued it greatly.
"Boss Qiu, 360 is not just Zhou Hongyi. It's also supported by Huanyu Technologies."
"Yes, Boss Qiu, Huanyu Technologies has a considerable share of 360's security guards."
"Sigh, if we had put Zou Tao in an important position, this wouldn't have happened."
Once this was said.
Many people began to reminisce about the past.
If West Mountain Residence had used Zou Tao, Zou Tao would not have gone to Huanyu Technologies.
If Zou Tao did not go to Huanyu Technologies, Huanyu Technologies would not be able to earn so much money from games.
If Huanyu Technologies didn't have money, they wouldn't have joined forces with Zhou Hongyi.
If Huanyu Technologies had not joined forces with Zhou Hongyi, there would not be the 360 today.
All of this seemed to be related to the release of Zou Tao.
Although he said so, Qiu Bojun snorted. "It's useless to talk about this. Let's do something practical."
At that time, Jinshan was in the midst of a power struggle. Zou Tao naturally became a sacrifice.
"President Qiu, I think we should immediately introduce Jinshan Assistant."
Seeing Qiu Bojun's displeasure, the CTO said immediately.
This proposal was unanimously approved by everyone at the meeting.
As long as they introduced a Jinshan Assistant with similar functions as 360 Safety Guard, they would not have to worry about the threat of 360 Safety Guard. Moreover, the senior management of Jinshan thought that in terms of technology, Jinshan was more awesome than 360 Safety Guard. If they introduced Jinshan Assistant, they would definitely be able to quickly grab 360 Safety Guard's market share.
Regarding this, Rui Xing and Jiang Min also thought the same.
Like Jinshan, Jiang Min also created a software called Jiang Min Assistant.
Ruixing had Ruixing Kaka before, so there was no need to make a new one.
However, Ruixing Kaka Assistant was only a marginal product in Ruixing Company. It was a free software and did not make much money. The company did not pay much attention to it. After this incident, they raised Ruixing Kaka Assistant to the same status as Ruixing Antivirus. Even if Ruixing Kaka Assistant did not make money, they would take back the market share.
…
"Boss Zhou, isn't 360 too shameless?"
"President Xie, please don't say that."
"What else do you want me to say? You sold 3721 to us, and now you want to kill it. Is this how the Internet works?"
"President Xie, we had no choice. You see, we were forced by the three major antivirus software companies. They asked if I dared to kill 3721. I thought there was nothing I wouldn't dare to do, so I killed it. "
"Don't talk to me about this."
The CEO of Yahoo China, Xie Wen, called Zhou Hongyi.
Yes.
These few days, he was so angry that he almost exploded.
He did not expect Zhou Hongyi to do this.
Of course, if it was the three major antivirus software companies who did this, he would not be so angry.
However, the key was that this guy had just taken nearly one billion yuan from them.
He had been in the Internet for so long, but he had never met such a shameless person.
Because of this, Yahoo's headquarters was very angry and ordered Xie Wen to give them an explanation.
Explanation? What explanation could he give?
Could he say that he did not expect Zhou Hongyi to be so shameless?
"President Xie, I can only apologize to you."
"Sorry? Is it enough to apologize? Zhou Hongyi, let me tell you. You have violated the agreement. "
"President Xie, I think you are mistaken. 360 Security Guards and 3721 are not in competition."
"You …"
Normally, when a company acquires a company, it will sign a non-competition agreement with the company.
For example, when a company acquires an instant messaging company, the company's CEO will not be able to do instant messaging for a certain period of time. When Yahoo acquired 3721, it also signed a similar agreement with Zhou Hongyi. The agreement stated that Zhou Hongyi will not be able to participate in 3721's content for the next three years.
This agreement was normal.
After all, 3721 was created by Zhou Hongyi. If Zhou Hongyi created 3721, it would be a big threat to 3721.
However, Zhou Hongyi's reply angered Xie Wen.
That's right.
Zhou Hongyi did not violate the agreement.
They did not enter the Internet related to 3721.
They also did not compete with 3721.
They only created a software to destroy 3721, that's all.
Of course, 360 Security Guards was not created to kill 3721. It was to provide system security.
Killing 3721 was just one of their jobs.
"Okay, Zhou Hongyi, you are ruthless. Just you wait."
Xie Wen knew that he could not use the agreement to embarrass Zhou Hongyi. He did not say anything else and hung up the phone.
"Sigh …"
"Headache."
Zhou Hongyi pressed his head and sat on the sofa. "Chen Yu, look, we have offended Yahoo."
"So what if we've offended them? Huanyu Technology has offended many companies as well."
"That is true, but the other party is Yahoo."
"So what? Although Yahoo is powerful, don't worry. They can't do anything to us."
Chen Yu was not worried about Yahoo at all.
Although Crow Tiger looked powerful now and its market value was the world's number one Internet company.
However, Yahoo's number one position was too weak.
They could still maintain their number one position now. In a few years, Yahoo's market value would shrink.
As for the reason …
That was because Yahoo did not have any core products.
Just like now. Do you know what products Yahoo has?
At most, it is a portal.
Who else could he threaten with a mere web portal?
"The ones who should be worried are the three major anti-virus software companies."
Yahoo aside, Chen Yu reminded Zhou Hongyi. "The three major anti-virus software companies have better technology than us."
