Mobile chat software?
Seeing that Chen Fan actually planned to develop such a software, Zhang Xiaolong's expression was very interesting.
"This...is not possible."
"Mr. Chen, don't you know that QQ is the stub of Penguin Group?"
"They absolutely cannot allow a second similar product to come onto the market that threatens their survival."
"Once they appear, the Penguin Group will do its utmost to carry out a comprehensive encirclement and suppression until they are completely strangled."
Chen Fan explained with a smile: "Of course I know this."
"It's just that the biggest threat to QQ in the market right now is Fetion. Fetion alone is enough to give QQ a headache for a while."
"And the products we develop are for mobile devices. They are not a threat to QQ for now."
Zhang Xiaolong shook his head: "It's all the same."
"Excuse me, the mobile version of QQ was launched as early as 2003, and Penguin has already started to develop mobile QQ for smartphones."
Chen Fan waved his hand: "Okay. Let's not talk about whether this product will be targeted by Penguin. Mr. Zhang, let's talk about it first. If our group really develops such a national-level mobile chat software. The number of users is comparable to QQ. In the future, what do you think it will mean to Ruofan Group?"
"What does it mean..."
Zhang Xiaolong took a deep breath: "It means that Ruofan Group has mastered a nuclear-level super application, which is equivalent to having its own moat. In the future mobile Internet era, it will be almost invincible."
Chen Fan: "In this case, why don't we build our own moat?"
"Let's talk about what Mr. Zhang just mentioned. Penguin will definitely hunt down and intercept our products and strangle them."
"But doesn't the Ruofan Group have the power to resist?"
"Ruofan Group currently has Feifan Video, Feifan Weibo, Feifan Antivirus and Feifan Security Guard, which have huge user groups. Even if we really get into a promotion and marketing war in the future, will we definitely lose?"
"This is related to the company's future layout. Penguin is unwilling to give up, so we naturally cannot admit defeat either."
"The door to the mobile Internet era has just been opened. Everyone is at the same starting line. Why is it that Penguin is besieging Ruofan Group? Why is it that we, Penguin, are surpassing it?"
When he said this, the corners of Chen Fan's mouth curled up slightly.
"We'll have to fight to find out who will win."
"Let's make another assumption. If Ruofan Group really succeeds in developing such a national-level chat software, where do you think Ruofan Group will go in the future?"
Zhang Xiaolong thought about it, then widened his eyes and said with a lost voice: "Then the Ruofan Group will become a behemoth that surpasses the Penguin Group..."
Chen Fan smiled.
"That's right."
"As far as I know, Mr. Zhang has never been a person who likes to be content with the status quo."
"If you stay at Penguin, there are factions within the group and the internal struggle is fierce. It is difficult for Mr. Zhang to move up further."
"But if you come to me, I can give you a big enough platform, complete trust, and enough freedom."
"Isn't it attractive enough for you to create a product that can compete with your old company?"
Zhang Xiaolong was silent.
To be honest, Chen Fan's words were too misleading.
If he didn't have enough self-control, if it were someone else, he would probably be fooled by Chen Fan into joining the team on the spot.
But Zhang Xiaolong was very calm.
It's times like this that require you to stay calm.
He admitted that what Chen Fan said just now was very persuasive and exciting.
But what if it fails?
I am currently doing well in Penguin. Even though my position is not very high, at least I have an independent business department in Guangzhou, which is equivalent to a frontier official in ancient times.
He lives a very comfortable life now.
But then again.
Chen Fan really saw through him.
Zhang Xiaolong is indeed not a person who is content with the status quo, and his heart is full of adventurous genes.
In fact, if Chen Fan hadn't met him this time, Zhang Xiaolong would have already planned to develop the mobile industry.
His inner plan was actually to develop a mobile chat software.
He had thought about this many times in his heart.
However, whether it was fate or some strange coincidence, before he could finish the plan or propose it to the higher-ups, Chen Fan showed up.
The weird thing is that Chen Fan has exactly the same idea as him.
Zhang Xiaolong remained calm just now and there was no sign of any emotional change.
In fact, my heart was already in turmoil.
Because what Chen Fan said was exactly the same as his thoughts.
Is this what they call great minds think alike?
If he wasn't sure that this was the first time he met Chen Fan.
He even began to doubt whether Chen Fan had any special skills, but he could see through people's thoughts.
"This... matter is very serious. I... cannot give Mr. Chen an answer right away."
Chen Fan smiled: "I understand."
"If it were me, I wouldn't be able to decide right away."
"But it doesn't matter. Mr. Zhang still has time to think about it. Give me an answer then."
"It's a rare trip to Hong Kong. I'll treat Mr. Zhang to dinner tonight."
Chen Fan stood up, which meant he was seeing the guest off.
After being personally escorted to the door, Zhang Xiaolong hesitated for a moment, but still asked the biggest question in his mind.
"Why me?"
He knew that Chen Fan must understand what this meant.
Why choose him?
It was clear that the two had never had any contact before.
Chen Fan smiled mysteriously.
"When I hire people, I never look at their background or academic qualifications. I only hire the right people."
"I prefer to be a mentor rather than go to the scene myself."
This was a very clever statement. It didn't directly answer Zhang Xiaolong's question, but it seemed to have said everything. It also indirectly praised Zhang Xiaolong's ability.
"Then Mr. Chen, see you tonight."
"See you tonight."
After watching the other party enter the elevator, Chen Fan returned to the house.
A few minutes later, Zhang Shun knocked on the door and entered the room.
"Mr. Chen."
"Sent away?"
"Yeah. He only brought a driver this time, and didn't bring anyone else."
Chen Fan nodded: "It's a good thing to keep a low profile. After all, if people saw him meeting me, it would definitely cause discussion."
Zhang Shun hesitated: "Will he agree?"
Chen Fan nodded: "I definitely will."
Zhang Shun couldn't help but ask curiously: "Mr. Chen, why are you so sure?"
Chen Fan grinned: "From the moment he agreed to come to Hong Kong to meet me, he was no longer so determined in his heart."
"The reason why I am sure he will agree is because I know people like Zhang Xiaolong."
"In some ways, he is very similar to me. We are both people who can't stand loneliness and like adventure at heart."
"I've painted such a big pie for him, I don't believe he won't be tempted."
