Baidu has not been in good condition over the years.●⌒,

Once after Google withdrew from the Chinese market as a whole for various reasons, Baidu seized this unique opportunity and became the search engine with the largest market share in China. For a long time, no search engine in China could compete with it.

However, it is absolutely true that it will be declining when it is used to the giant Internet company.

To put it bluntly, being able to succeed in China is related to the relatively closed market environment of China's search engine. In the early stages of the development of the Internet, the initial Internet surfing entrance was search engines. If users want to obtain information on the Internet and find their favorite videos and music, they need to quickly locate the search engine without exception.

Due to some policy reasons, foreign search engines were completely unable to adapt to the Chinese market and finally had to choose to withdraw. This gave Baidu the opportunity to rise in China. In other words, Baidu's products were only very popular in the Chinese circle. In the early Internet stage, Chinese people were used to web pages and used Baidu to find the content they needed. Even a few years ago, there was a rumor that "If you don't decide whether to ask Baidu for internal affairs, if you don't decide to ask Google for external affairs!"

As Google withdraws from the Chinese market, it becomes a matter of internal and external affairs that requires Baidu!

Seizing the golden development period, he encountered the opportunity of no competition in the entire search market. With the support of the country for the Internet industry during that period, Baidu quickly developed from a search company to a giant Internet company in China, and successfully listed on the Nasdaq per share.

Perhaps it was Baidu's founder Li Hongyan who didn't expect Baidu's grand situation in China in the early stages of his business in Silicon Valley. The title of the world's number one Chinese search engine has reached more than 90%. The US stock market value soared fifty-two times from the initial $27, and even reached a peak of more than $1,400, and the market value reached 43 billion at its peak! All of this is like a dream.

However, the turning point occurred four years ago, that is, in 2015.

Or because of the large access to capital. Such unique development opportunities did not allow this Internet giant company to repay society, but began to crazily extract profits from society.

Like many large enterprises, Baidu's development has encountered various difficulties. First, its Tieba industry encountered scandals and piracy, and sold the mutual aid Tieba of disease patients to some traveling doctors in the world to sell some treatment methods and drugs that are not effective. Then in 2016, its medical keyword opaque bidding was exposed by some sudden notes, and cooperated with some private hospitals that were not qualified to promote various unreliable and unexpected means. Even cancer treatment methods, which squeezed out the last profit from patients who needed care the most.

Not to mention the various piracy methods in the spirit of Internet sharing, relying on their monopoly position in the search engine market in China and the halo of the most successful Internet company in China, they have obtained various documents for free, but then sold them at a fee...

Such behaviors naturally aroused the anger of countless Chinese netizens. Various news about Baidu were widely used on the Internet for a time. At that time, the time was when the Prince of Tang launched the Prince's intelligent system and virtual reality technology.

In fact, at that time, Li Hongyan had already asked Prince Wang to cooperate with him. However, given that Baidu's reputation was extremely bad at that time, and the prince of the Tang Dynasty and Google were in the honeymoon period, Prince Wang simply rejected Baidu's cooperation requirements.

Just like many similar scandals in Chinese history, some negative news finally gradually cooled down under the erosion of various public relations and time. Although Baidu paid the price, it was far from being hurt. After paying the fine and giving various misunderstandings, Baidu continued to make money in the Chinese market in a low-key manner.

Of course, after the baptism of these scandals, Baidu's search engine market share in China has also begun to decline sharply. After all, this is no longer the era when the entire market had only one search engine to play casually. 360, Yisou, Tencent, and other Internet companies have already launched their own search engines, and have taken advantage of Baidu's in a hurry to successfully seize many Baidu's markets through various publicity methods.

Then naturally, it was an era of various technological revolutions in the mobile Internet. Prince Touo Wang sold the blessing of the Tang Dynasty Prince Center. Baidu successfully cooperated with Huaxia Dingyan, and embedded its own products in the Chinese version of Prince Intelligent System, which slightly reversed the previous decline.

But that's all. It's obviously not that easy to return to its peak period. After all, as a company that has lost its basic business reputation and ethics, even if it can rely on the user's usage habits and strong technical capabilities, it can attract most netizens inertia. However, people now have their own wariness about the products promoted by Baidu. As a result, from the various trusts of people to the current doubts, everyone is now in doubt. The effect is naturally greatly reduced.

In this case, merchants are naturally not fools, so how could they be willing to spend so much money to continue advertising in various bidding rankings? In this way, Baidu's profitability is naturally declining year by year.

Prince Wang naturally knew very well about Baidu's various situations. So as soon as Li Hongyan spoke, Prince Wang understood his thoughts. Obviously, this Chinese Internet tycoon smelled a different smell at today's press conference and planned to seize the opportunity to see if he could connect with Starry Sky Technology.

The reason is very simple. Obviously, the attitude that Prince Wang expressed at the press conference today is already breaking with the United States, which is a challenge for the entire Starry Sky Technology Alliance. In this case, Starry Sky Technology has even relaxed the access conditions of the alliance, and naturally it urgently needs the support of a large number of companies.

If Baidu connects with Starry Sky Technology at this time, it can be said to be a timely help. Of course, this is also the best opportunity for Baidu. Because Baidu has also sought cooperation like Starry Sky Technology before, after all, it has the support of various high-tech technologies for Internet companies, and the effect is obvious.

In the international search engine market, Google has already made Yahoo unable to find the north. In the whole of Europe and the United States, Yahoo's market share has dropped from 30% at its peak to less than 10% now. This is already miserable enough. Even Japan, which has the highest market share in Yahoo, has fallen, and has been surpassed by Google. You should know that three years ago, Yahoo occupied more than 50% of the search engine market in Japan.

Compared with these data, Baidu, which is also a search engine company, will naturally pay attention to this. Although Baidu has always used Chinese search as its main business, when China has developed to a bottleneck, who doesn’t want to occupy more likely markets? In fact, if there is an opportunity, Baidu naturally wants to leave the circle of China and tentatively move to the world market.

Prince Wang’s analysis was correct, Li Hongyan took this opportunity!

Take advantage of Starry Sky Technology's ride-sharing and take the lead in developing the search engine that is most suitable for virtual network operations. This is what all search engine companies in the world want to do now.

This is an era of technological explosion, and anything can happen. Even a dominant position like Google may not be defeated. With the popularity of universal secretary and the development of virtual reality technology, everyone can clearly see that the future will be the era of virtual search.

But it is one thing to be able to see. Whether you can occupy this market first needs to be one step ahead of others in technology. But to talk about technology..., well, now I guess no company dares to challenge Starry Sky Technology.

For this company that absorbs talents like a black hole and then produces new technologies at the speed of light, all high-tech companies in the world are not acceptable! Although everyone knows that Starry Sky Technology's investment in R&D has never been heard or even made a big move, few companies dare to follow suit. Including those big companies that actually have a lot of spare money, such as Google, Apple, and naturally, Baidu.

Why? Because no one has the confidence that such a desperate investment can achieve satisfactory output. Scientific research cannot be achieved by investing a lot of money, but it is definitely possible to get ideal results.

If you invest a lot of money, the effect will be that unsatisfactory investments are everywhere in new technology investment. So although these large companies pay great attention to their technological advantages and will not be stingy in new technology research and development, no one will invest all their belongings in it.

Those who dare to do this seem to be the only monster Starry Sky Technology, or the genius figure of Prince Wang.

In this case, although Li Hongyan can see the future development trend and see this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for Baidu, she can't catch it at all. Because Starry Sky Technology has always had a good relationship with Google, on the contrary, its relationship with Baidu is not so friendly. At least he once took the initiative to throw out an olive branch but was directly rejected by the Prince of Datang on the excuse of having cooperated with similar companies.

However, today's press conference gave Li Hongyan an opportunity. Prince Wang used such tough measures to deal with the antitrust sanctions of the Americans, which would obviously affect the relationship between Starry Sky Technology and Google, and this is Baidu's opportunity.

If it can be launched with Starry Sky Technology at this time and obtain the latest technical support, Baidu will be able to achieve a qualitative takeoff again. This time, Li Hongyan has made up her mind to never focus on China, a country, and be the largest Chinese search engine. His goal is to push Baidu to the entire world.

Of course, perhaps in other countries, they will be subject to more supervision, and their profit methods may be different from those in China, but they follow the local customs. He believes that as long as they have technological advantages, all this is not a problem. As a boss who started his career in technology, Li Hongyan's thinking model obviously has no problem.

This is also the reason why he took the initiative to have a video call with Prince Wang as soon as possible.

Such an important idea was obviously not so formal with just one video call, so he just sent an invitation, hoping to get a chance to talk to Prince Wang in detail, and then use his sincerity to impress Prince Wang.

This is an excellent plan. Li Hongyan believes that if he missed this opportunity, there is probably no next time. As for the punishment that Prince Wang showed in a tough manner at the press conference, Li Hongyan was disdainful.

Not to mention anything else, Starry Sky Technology already has many world-class technologies. If you really give up the entire US market voluntarily, it will only be a loss for both sides. After all, Starry Sky Technology's products are extremely popular in the whole world. Even if you really give up the entire US market, although it may suffer a heavy blow, you can still survive.

As for the United States, as the most open market in the world, it will naturally suffer a heavy blow. The fact that these advanced technologies alone cannot enjoy by the public is enough to drink this government.

In short, fighting between snipe and clam is a good thing for outsiders.

But what Li Hongyan didn't expect was that Prince Wang simply rejected his good intentions and did not give him a chance to have an interview at all. Then it was only made clear in the video.

With this understanding, Li Hongyan also simply revealed his wishes.

"Actually, I have always had the idea of ​​meeting Mr. Wang, and the main thing is to talk about cooperation. Baidu hopes to establish a comprehensive strategic cooperation relationship with Starry Sky Technology. From technology to market, we have a foundation for cooperation. For example, Baidu and Starry Sky Technology are both companies rooted in China. Our search engines and a series of other Chinese products are still the products with the highest market share in China. The most important thing is that we are willing to provide all the conveniences needed for R&D for Starry Sky Technology as much as possible at this time. I believe..."

However, what Li Hongyan did not expect was that under such circumstances, Prince Wang actually interrupted himself directly.

"That's right, Mr. Li, if you want to join our Starry Sky Technology Alliance on behalf of Baidu, you can follow the process published on the official website and submit the information to us for review. If it can be approved, then congratulations and you will be able to join the internal technical communication of the alliance. If the review cannot be approved, it is a pity that we can only look forward to the opportunity to continue to cooperate next time!"

Prince Wang's words made Li Hongyan suddenly stunned.

He was full of confidence in this call before. After all, the request to extend an olive branch at this time was absolutely tantamount to helping him in time. What he didn't expect was that Prince Wang was so light and ignored his kindness.

What is the situation?

Are those analysts farting?

Starry Technology's financial situation is so good that it has no impact on him if it gives up the entire US market?

This is unscientific!
