Just as Wan Feng was carrying firecrackers home, something big happened on the Chinese Internet.
January 25th, the 26th day of the twelfth lunar month.
GuGe has entered the Chinese Internet, using a CN URL, and officially challenged the Chinese search leader Qiansou.
As a giant in the world of search, the arrival of Gu Ge was seen as an elephant entering a garden.
This made the people in Qiansou feel a little nervous.
Qiansou has finally achieved results in recent years, with annual revenue growing at a rate of billions. It now accounts for 80% of the search market share in China.
Just when he was about to unify the country, a powerful opponent appeared.
But Wan Feng didn't take the drum song seriously.
Wan Feng was busy celebrating the New Year and had no time to take care of this matter. Anyway, he knew that Gu Ge would not last long in China, only five years.
By 2010, it will have moved away like potatoes, so there is nothing to worry about.
There are many reasons for GuGe's failure in the Chinese market, including underestimation of the Chinese market, mistakes in marketing strategy, arrogance, and the selection of a public intellectual as president.
It would be strange if it could get better.
They thought China was a small market and had no accurate prediction of China's market size, especially in 2009 when a program called "Day Day Up" almost overwhelmed its servers. With this kind of technology, they still want to gain a foothold in China. Isn't that just a dream?
The rest of the reasons are related to legal and political aspects. There are always links to websites that are not suitable for children on the GuGe website. The problem that appeared in 2007 was not solved by GuGe in 2009. Its arrogance is enough to make it die without a burial place.
Then there are some sensitive topics. Western countries' slander against China did not start in recent years. It has never stopped since the 1990s.
Since you want to make money from the Chinese people and create content that disgusts the Chinese people, and then you come to China and don't take Chinese laws seriously, if not you, who will be out?
GuGe has only been in existence in China for five years at best, and its market share was only 25% at its peak. Wan Feng didn't take it seriously at all.
During the Chinese New Year this year, Wan Feng did not stay at home as he did in previous years. Instead, he behaved very approachably. In addition to visiting relatives to wish them a happy new year, he often appeared in the Cultural Palace and various commercial places in Xiaoshutun.
Sometimes I chat with people and sometimes I participate in some entertainment activities, but I don’t gamble anymore.
Although he no longer played in person, he would sometimes act as a judge behind others when they were playing, commenting on whether they were playing the cards right or wrong without any advice or advice.
As the new year begins and the old year ends, when the firecrackers that send off the new year sound, another year is left behind.
On the fourth and fifth days of the New Year, I went to Luan Feng's house first and then to Zhang Xuan's house to pay New Year's greetings. I went to work at the group on the seventh day.
This year passed by so uneventfully, no different from previous years.
The only difference was that on the 15th day of the first lunar month this year, Wan Feng went to the Fox Fairy Cave.
It seems that he hasn't been here in recent years.
Now the Wahou Market has extended to Fox Fairy Cave, which serves as a parking lot for visitors from afar.
Wan Feng parked the car right next to the parking lot facing the Fox Fairy Cave.
Because the Chinese New Year had just passed, there were not many cars coming to the Wahou market to purchase goods, and there were only a few buses parked sparsely in the parking lot.
The Fox Fairy Cave has undergone tremendous changes now.
The open space under the Fox Fairy Cave has been completely hardened. The steps leading up the mountain are not only neatly built with cement, but also have iron railings on the outside, making it safe and beautiful.
A fox fairy temple was also built at the foot of the mountain.
After Wan Feng parked the car, Luan Feng and Zhang Xuan got out with their children. They were going to the Fox Fairy Cave to burn incense and paper and make wishes.
Two people got out of a car behind Wan Feng's car and followed Luan Feng and Zhang Xuan to the Fox Fairy Cave.
This is the person arranged by Wen Zhongguo to protect Wan Feng's family.
He sat in his car and watched Wan Feng. His task was to protect Wan Feng from any accidents.
Every year, stilt yangko teams from all over the country gather in front of the Fox Fairy Cave, and firecrackers and fireworks are set off from time to time, making it very lively.
Wan Feng opened the car window and looked at the happy crowd in the square in front of the Fox Fairy Cave with boredom.
A woman wearing big sunglasses walked past his car.
"Big-eyed thief!" Wan Feng shouted subconsciously.
The woman wearing big sunglasses turned around angrily and saw the smiling Wan Feng.
After seeing Wan Feng, the woman was like a deflated ball.
"So it's you, you bastard."
"Come here! Let me see what's changed! With eyes like yours, why do you need glasses? Draw a circle around your eyes. It's guaranteed to be more accurate than glasses."
"You mean I'm the panda?"
"Tsk! It would be great if you could become a panda. It's a national treasure."
Liang Hua walked to Wan Feng's car, opened the back door without any hesitation and got in.
"Where are your two wives?"
Wan Feng pointed at the Fox Fairy Cave and said, "Go in and make a wish."
Although Wan Feng and Liang Hua live in the same village, they seem to have not seen each other for seven or eight years or more.
Wan Feng had met her father Liang Wan several times over the years.
"Liang Hua! Why do I feel like I haven't seen you since you got married? Did you run away with someone else?"
"I knew nothing good could come out of your mouth. You're almost forty, why are you still talking like that?"
"Everyone has their own speaking style. What does it have to do with age? What have you been doing all these years?"
Liang Hua also worked with Luan Feng to make clothes. After getting married, he left the clothing factory and seemed to be doing some business in the Wahou market.
"Wholesale cosmetics at the Wahou market."
"It's a lucrative business! Making hundreds of thousands a year shouldn't be a problem, right?"
Cosmetics is a real money-making business.
Men's tobacco and women's cosmetics are the easiest businesses in the world.
It’s just that tobacco is controlled by the state, so even if you want to do something, you can’t, so women’s cosmetics have become a cash cow.
"It's so easy to make money, maybe only 200,000 or 300,000 yuan a year."
"Two or three hundred thousand is not a small amount. The workers in my company only make a little over 30,000 yuan a year."
"Compared to ordinary people, it's pretty good, but compared to you, it's nothing. You're the big boss and we're just small vendors."
"Haha! You can't blame me for this. You were supposed to be the boss lady. Who made you think I was ugly when you had your eyes on your butt?"
Liang Hua chuckled. "Come to think of it, I had such a good opportunity in front of me, but I actually gave it up. Sigh! This is fate."
"Let's talk about Wahou. I'm unfamiliar with many people and things in Wahou."
"I have to go in and fulfill a vow. I'll chat with you when I have time." Liang Hua waved to Wan Feng, turned and walked towards the Fox Fairy Cave.
Wan Feng looked at the time and it was almost half past eight, so he got out of the car and walked to the Fox Fairy Cave.
