Chapter 1054: Chapter 1051: Has the God of the Internet Arrived?
"I’ll definitely tell you. Enjoy your meal, I won’t disturb you any longer!" An Peng also used some code words.
Luofeng continued reviewing these confidential documents.
Around ten in the morning, Luofeng received a call from Chen Ping.
The other party informed him that Mr. Li from Baidu had come personally.
The man who was once a god-like figure in the internet world, came personally?
Luofeng had to make a trip there, inevitably.
If there are no surprises, it should take about an hour to reach the Guojin Center.
......
"Boss Luo, you’ve arrived?"
"General Chen and Mr. Li are waiting for you in the conference room!"
Upon arriving at the company, Receptionist Lin Zi began to report.
She was a newlywed, but Luofeng often came to the office, so he knew this receptionist.
Luofeng didn’t have a secretary or an assistant, he wondered if he should get one himself?
A female secretary and assistant were definitely impossible, Luofeng had no such hobby.
What he was thinking was to find a versatile talent with strong work abilities.
Someone who could handle work tasks, convey messages, and even manage trivial matters in life effectively.
Luofeng walked towards the conference room and at first glance saw Mr. Li, the head of Baidu.
This guy clearly appeared cultured and refined, yet the things he developed in business could be described as constantly criticized.
"Mr. Li, hello, pleasure to meet you!" Luofeng approached and greeted proactively.
Mr. Li immediately stood up, showing respect by shaking hands with Luofeng.
"I’ve heard of Mr. Luo for a long time, indeed you are young, and a formidable newcomer!" Mr. Li said with a smile.
"Mr. Li, you are too kind. At the time, I was your fan; Baidu accompanied my growth!" Luofeng said courteously.
This is indeed correct.
Baidu was established around 2000.
Luofeng is indeed the 00s generation, right?
"Mr. Luo is very young; I don’t envy other things, but this I truly envy!" Mr. Li continued praising.
"Mr. Li also appears very young!" Luofeng replied, "By the way, Chen Ping, Mr. Li is my idol; take a photo of us, let’s have a group photo!"
Given the situation like this.
Mr. Li dared not assume the other party was indeed his fan.
People said this youngster is a difficult character.
But if they want to take a photo together, why not?
Can one refuse?
After the photo was taken, both parties returned to their seats, and Luofeng said, "Mr. Li, regarding our collaboration, do you see any unresolved issues?"
After all, it was already discussed previously.
Both Ai Enterprise and Baidu had agreed.
Today it seems to be about signing the contract.
"Mr. Luo’s proposal is excellent; we accept it entirely!" Mr. Li nodded affirmatively.
"So are we signing today?" Luofeng asked.
"There’s no problem! Today we are here to sign!" Mr. Li nodded again.
After all, Mr. Li had already brought his legal department.
During the one or two hours of time.
Luofeng kept reviewing the contract agreement.
Although Luofeng’s legal department had repeatedly examined it and found no issues, Luofeng still preferred to check it himself.
For a multi-billion-dollar contract like this, extra caution is definitely necessary.
And Luofeng wasn’t just relying on his knowledge and the naked eye to review.
Luofeng had a tool card, a tool card called the Pit-Avoidance Signing Card.
As long as this thing is used.
Then in the signing process, all pitfalls would be avoided.
For a huge signing occasion like this, using such a tool card was quite fitting.
After both parties cheerfully signed the contract, Mr. Li once again sighed, "Seeing Boss Luo wield such control, I feel old once more!"
"Mr. Li starts again?" Luofeng said with a smile.
Mr. Li did not continue on this topic, but rather said, "By the way, Mr. Luo, I have a new collaboration proposal, are you interested to know more?"
"Of course I am!" Luofeng nodded, looking at the other party with curiosity.
"Boss Luo actually wants to integrate resources and become a giant in The Sixth Media industry, but there’s still a crucial opportunity lacking!" Mr. Li mentioned.
"Oh?" Luofeng looked at the other party.
"The current era has entered the internet isolated island era! Boss Luo must be aware, right?" Mr. Li elaborated, "In such times, every app is striving to secure its users, including us at Baidu!"
Indeed, whether it’s short videos, novels, music, news, so on and so forth.
Isn’t it the case that every company is trying hard to capture users?
Various benefits, free initiatives for newcomers, and so on.
Aren’t these just strategies?
"Mr. Li, please continue!" Luofeng had not yet heard the key information, so he did not rush to express his stance.
"Boss Luo is aware of our Baijiahao, right?" Mr. Li asked.
Baijiahao is a content creation platform for creators, integrating creation, publishing, and monetization, also serving as a new operational grounds for many corporate accounts to achieve marketing conversions.
"We can funnel Baijiahao’s business into your Fengshun Company’s numerous media outlets, thereby allowing you to gain more information channels!" Mr. Li explained.
"Then what is the cost?" Luofeng didn’t believe in good fortune falling from the sky.
"What cost does Luofeng wish to pay?" Mr. Li, being an old fox, certainly wouldn’t be the first to state the price.
"Haha!" Luofeng chuckled, "Mr. Li, I think this cooperation seems a bit unfavorable! Perhaps you have a misunderstanding of Baijiahao, but speaking from the perspective of an ordinary user, it’s a failed product of Baidu! Inside, the false messages are too frequent, a couple might be fine, but what about when accumulated?"
Mr. Li fell silent.
"There’s indeed too much false news; now many people simply ignore the information from Baijiahao!" Luofeng stated.
"However, I have a new proposal here!" Luofeng began to speak.
"Ah?" Mr. Li was taken aback.
"What proposal?" Mr. Li inquired.
"We can deepen our collaboration, the three short-video platforms under you have already reached a bottleneck phase, and the business-advertising offerings are consistently causing problems!" Luofeng pointed out, "I know you are brewing a big move: artificial intelligence, autonomous driving, smart city brains, quantum computers, and so on, but do you have enough time and funds?"
Mr. Li remained silent.
"If you did, then Ai Enterprise wouldn’t easily let go, right?" Luofeng chuckled.
"Mr. Li, we can actually establish a strategic cooperation; we focus on Fengshun Investment’s media, you focus on the search engine, and we mutually safeguard each other!" Luofeng suggested.
