NO.1 Li Dongsheng: Person of the Year or the "worst boss"
Li Dongsheng: July 1957 Health, Huizhou, and graduated from South China Institute of Technology Department of Radio, currently president and chairman of TCL Group
Time: July 4, 2007
Location: Guangdong Huizhou
People: Li Dongsheng
Where the Company: TCL Group Co., Ltd. was founded in 1981, is the largest consumer electronics groups. 2005 global revenues of 51.6 billion yuan in 2006, the company reached 36.2 billion brand value.
Synopsis: July 4, 2007, "Forbes," the 3rd release Chinese Listed Companies in China (mainly non-state-owned listed companies) the list of the worst boss, Li Dongsheng surprised listed in the "worst boss" No. 6.
In 1996, Li Dongsheng TCL Group as president, thus beginning a series of drastic reforms and capital operation, the TCL from a small local company into an international corporation. Under the leadership of the Li Dongsheng, TCL 10 years in terms of TV, mobile phone or computer industries, have made remarkable achievements. However, in 2004, on Thomson's TV business and Alcatel mobile phone business two radical and bad acquisitions, resulting in TCL devastated.
From the year 2007 three quarters of view, TCL Group achieved operating income of 28.3 billion yuan, net profit of 67.69 million yuan, it seems to avoid being delisted. However, a very dangerous practice TCL advance loss provision for accounts in 2007, the existing profit mainly from the sale of the property and its non-core business, TCL real estate contributed 30.75 million yuan of profits in the first half, while the overseas business is still not only the loss, the situation worrisome.
Overseas business model adjustments, so that TCL's color TV business in Europe and North America, the first half of 2007, a substantial 57% decline in emerging markets and strategic OEM business has also decreased by 42%, making TCL Multimedia in the first half of the sales revenue fell 37.4%, TV sales dropped 35% to 7.07 million units.
2005, TCL's turnover up 51.6 billion yuan, from 2007 years ago, three-quarter view, only 28.3 billion. First half of 2007, TCL profit 45.09 million yuan, up 96.8% reduced losses. However, its main business revenue fell 23.7% to 17.99 billion yuan, only the first half of TCL's color TV business losses of 2 billion.
International difficulties, and can not give the whole picture TCL today. Now, TCL domestic market is also falling sharply. The cell phone industry, TCL is now almost nothing worth mentioning. The TV side even worse in the past or the leader in the domestic, and now also at the 3, although strong, but behind Hisense, and the situation is not optimistic.
Square: Li Dongsheng TCL is leading out of the loss, first and foremost is a good trend. Furthermore, the unprofitable PC business divestiture, TCL can just move forward with ease. From the world's leading business growth trajectory of view, timely adjustment of enterprise development strategies, need to fully adapt to the situation. Li Dongsheng at the end of a major adjustment of the Group's business should be commended.
Against: get the "worst boss" when true to its name. Main business is still no hope of reducing losses, the group structure and senior personnel turbulence frequently rely on selling a variety of services to achieve the profit is too speculative, and not long. Li Dongsheng should be discarded as soon as possible, "Control of profit" this means the true in-depth market, understand the market, looking for a truly sustainable and profitable projects and breakthrough, big main business, this is a permanent solution.
Comments:
Li Dongsheng, the only set of Chinese "CCTV annual economic figures" and the U.S. "Forbes" "worst boss" title in one of two Chinese entrepreneurs. Circumstances before and after the fall of the great cause for regret!
1 year and a half ago, Li Dongsheng in "Eagle's rebirth" article, with middle-age eagle for rebirth in order to molt Hui-for-nail the story, a metaphor for the current TCL also at the transformation before being aroused. Imagine, in great hopes to write these words, he did not think "Forbes" will be sent to the "worst boss" in the title. Therefore, in order not too eager to prove his worst, he even resorted to selling defenses of the license "foul stroke", and then sold in the domestic influential computer business. Li Dongsheng TCL Group to give the subtraction?
In 2004, when he had also energetically to create his own saying: "bigger is not necessarily strong, do not necessarily do so is not strong." However, it is neither large nor strong TCL, but rather become a "shrink beef ", turnover of 51.6 billion yuan in 2005, diving down like 3 quarters of 2007, 28.3 billion years ago.
A large number of channel shrinkage, loss of close overseas operations, Li Dongsheng bitterly in Europe staged a "Dunkirk" for the big retreat, TCL is almost back to the "Liu-yang" before the origin.
Rome was not built in a day cold. TCL high-level turbulence, brand positioning, swing, too much emphasis on the concept of speculation, and in the core technology Quewu improvement, in competition with rivals into weakness became inevitable. Li Dongsheng at the expense of sales in exchange for a small profit, in fact, worse than the loss!
Mr. Li also worked for the former TCL Mobile Madman Wan Jianming, the book "system win" in the preface to write, "Since the buried trench," the warning, and we pray that it will not become a reality in 2008.
NO.2 Mr. Tang: TD founders or China 3G "sinners"
Mr. Tang: 1961 years old, graduated from Beijing University of Posts and microwave communications professional in 2002, became general manager of Datang Mobile
Time: December 6, 2007
Location: Beijing
People: Mr. Tang
Company location: Datang Mobile on February 8, 2002 incorporated in Beijing, is the Datang Telecom Technology Industry Group, one of the core, TD-SCDMA's founder and leader.
Synopsis: December 6, 2007, Mr. Tang was dismissed from office in Datang Mobile, whom he worked hard and had to leave the territory. Since its inception in 2002 Datang Mobile, TD Mr. Tang has become the industry leader in China. In the TD will achieve commercial point the sudden departure of Don left a lot of question marks for the industry.
March 2007, led by Datang Mobile, "Tang Line" was nearly 37% of China Mobile TD eight cities share network system equipment bidding, performance is quite good, Mr. Tang contributed. However, poor performance in recent years, Datang Mobile. As of the end of 2006, net loss of 96.07 million yuan of Datang Mobile. Some analysts believe that Datang Mobile in the market areas, poor management, TD delays in industrialization, Mr. Tang inescapable responsibility.
Meanwhile, Mr. Tang's departure was not unexpected, he, as former chairman of Datang Group, Zhou Huan, a "direct descendant", and the current chairman of Datang Group, was based not true and. They re-issue in the Tang heated argument on many occasions. Mr. Tang that Datang Mobile to be listed separately, while the base is really only want to inject quality assets Datang Mobile Datang Telecom.
Square: TD development has become one of the world's four major 3G standard, marshals have made indelible contributions to Mr. Tang should not be at risk of such outcomes. And, sadly his departure, not because of technical capacity to question, only because the true and bureaucratic restructuring was based on a difference of opinion, is the internal struggle of the victims of personnel.
Against: Mr. Tang is a 3G sinners. National policy and funding in the strong support, TD commercialization process is delayed, many times in hopes of later, the industry has lost patience waiting. And join the fray as WiMAX, TD Road, globalization will be more difficult. Mr. Tang as the head of TD, should bear the main responsibility, long overdue step down.
Comments:
Datang is a dangerous place, and then run into TD - the devoted great hope of Chinese IT industry, "aborted children," Mr. Tang destined to become a controversial figure.
Despite the great support by the State can not afford to help the fools like Datang, born and feet. But is such a loss of the mud lake in the struggling company, but there is no lack of players familiar Official Road. Administrative officials to hoodwink the public in a state-owned enterprises, the technical route of Mr. Tang walk in front of bureaucrats and politicians are too immature, defeated mess. Prior to that, there are "SCDMA father," said the letter, President Chen Wei Wei Tang was swept out of the listing because Xinwei politicians plan of reorganization with the conflict.
Then discard the power struggle between, Mr. Tang's years in office, Datang Mobile's performance really is not satisfactory, a large output less input, the industry waiting to no avail, can companies rely on loans to live the reality is that, in order to survive even to the extent patent "bondage." This term, Mr. Tang's departure might be a relief, no one volcano had a hard day.
Mr. Tang has been cleared, but many of Datang in a small microcosm of the struggle for power, certainly, TD day it is not commercial, here there will be more like "Chen Wei" or "Mr. Tang" hapless general.
NO.3 Shi Yuzhu: Marketing genius or expert Huyou
Shi Yuzhu: born in 1962, Anhui Huai, graduated from the University of Soft Management in Shenzhen, Giant CEO
Time: November 1, 2007
Location: Shanghai
People: Shi Yuzhu
Where the Company: Giant Interactive was founded in 2004, is directly under a giant Group's online game operator. The main business of "journey," "Giant," "King of Kings 3" and so on, in May 2007, "journey" at the same time the number exceeded 1 million top line.
Synopsis: November 1, 2007, giant networks in the United States listed on the New York Stock Exchange, becoming the largest IPO in the United States of Chinese private enterprises. Shi Yuzhu once again become the focus of public opinion.
From November 11, 2004 set up to May 2007 "journey," while the maximum number of people over one million online, Shi Yuzhu in a short time to create the miracle of China's online game industry. The Q3 2007 unaudited reported a Q3 net revenues of 405.2 million yuan, up 164.2%; net profit of 290.2 million yuan, up 152.6 percent.
"This year's festivals are not gifts, gifts received only melatonin!" Overwhelming bombardment of advertising, making melatonin a household name in China. But along with melatonin fraud, exaggerated effects of negative news, Shi Yuzhu been criticized in the industry more and more. The "journey" is also different from ordinary games, such as lotteries, gambling and insurance, in the "journey" of the virtual world can be good time vividly. But the "journey" is like a quagmire, go on get out; like opium, a suction on the addictive. Many people to spend money on equipment, which makes bankrupt.
Square: Mr. Deng Xiaoping put it well, whether it is white or black, can catch mice is a good cat. Shi Yuzhu is Nazhi can always capture the consumer psychology, market demand, the "demon cat" for the modern Chinese business community has set a typical case. From melatonin's hot, to get to the giant network of U.S. public, he could accurately grasp the needs of the consumer psychology, marketing the product to a peak. He proved that the Chinese market is also not in accordance with rules of the game the Wizards out of the business license is important, he did others can not.
Against: Shi Yuzhu is a downright liar, from melatonin, brain gold to the gold partner, he invariably started by 蹇芥偁, 蹇芥偁 by lying to the money. For now, the "journey" game, in the use of rich material temptation of hatred and fueled, and the use of brutal and violent deprivation of resources, inflation, etc., of the cruel exploitation of players to achieve the purpose of profiteering, which has hit the bottom line of morality, he is the destroyer of the games market norm.
Comments:
From a purely commercial point of view, Shi Yuzhu is successful, he can in Business ingenious application of Mao Zedong's military thought, created by the industry as a model case. But from a moral point of view, criticized him the most. In order to make money, he can do anything. He is an opportunist, and good grasp of the weaknesses of human nature, and to this end the design rules of the game, to profits.
No one will say he is a "big 蹇芥偁", Shi Yuzhu naturally not, but whether it is health products or the online games, must be labeled "Fudge" suspects. Melatonin actually be claimed to improve the effectiveness of sexual pleasure, since authorities have not detected this effect, I do not know Shi Yuzhu how measured, has no way of knowing whether it originated from his personal experience. The so-called "melatonin in a gold brick," turned out to be not even a stone. In the "journey", the Shi Yuzhu in turn easily, noble, entertainment directed vulgar spirit of the game of power and money, all the senior players are the "RMB gamers" were peace-loving people "despise" is bloody and violent be respected. While online games are virtual worlds, players have been part of the real world, if not a criteria, but who can guarantee he will not be out of place in real life. Shi Yuzhu may think that this has nothing to do with their own social problems.
Shi Yuzhu powerful reason than his competitors, is that he is really "black" enough "never", and his innate "Fei Qi."
NO.4 Zhengfei: to evade responsibility or passion reform
Ren Zhengfei: born in 1944, Jiangsu, university culture, Huawei Technologies Limited. 2000, the U.S. "Forbes" magazine as China's richest 50 No. 3
Date: October 2007
Location: Shenzhen
Character: Ren Zhengfei
Where the Company: Huawei was founded in 1987 and headquartered in Shenzhen, there are more than 70,000 employees, is the world's leading communications equipment manufacturers. Sales revenue in 2006 65.6 billion, of which 65% of sales revenue from overseas markets.
Synopsis: In October 2007, Huawei's "resignation" incident created a great sensation, thousands of people to resign and then Jing Gang, a great uproar in the community.
Huawei provides all the company employees have worked more than eight years, must be before New Year's Day in 2008, active handling procedures to resign, then competition for employment, re-signed with 1 to 3 years of the contract. Ren Zhengfei launched by the personnel changes, was seen as a circumvention of labor laws, to avoid social responsibility. However, Huawei said the incident was made in human resources management a number of adjustments, fully within the scope permitted by law.
Over the past 10 years, Huawei by the rapid development of the rapid number of employees increased to 7 thousand people. Ren Zhengfei, believes that companies in the expansion process, has accumulated a number of problems. He hoped that the resignation of then Jinggang, bloody wake-up staff for the company to inject new vitality. In his view, if taken into consideration every hero, then it will ruin the company's future. An enterprise over time, older workers well-paid, stable position, it will gradually sink, loss of vitality.
Square: Huawei's behavior did the work to break the long-standing cultural and solving No. competitiveness factors. Also, employees in this incident did not lose more than 20 million to compensate for many people paid too comfortable. In addition, the practice of Ren Zhengfei also responsible for a staff and business performance, Huawei need to metabolism.
Against: Ren Zhengfei of this decision, but why in the new "Labor Contract Law" issued before the implementation, not avoid the responsibility of business to employees, but also what is? And, in the long run, "resignation" incident is very large impact : in the enterprise, the senior staff left the eyes of the rift would be difficult to erase, and a threat to the cohesion of the company; in the enterprise, the large number of companies follow the trend of layoffs, to the happy and peaceful in this pre-holiday social Gaode panic.
Comments:
Chief low-key, Huawei low-key, but companies always produce the unexpected, when a large movement.
Like to create "movement" launched by the chief of personnel changes, the company injected a "catalyst" of the intent of a change in the culture of the ills of the past work number. It is said that "the resignation of the door" incident, in order to give equal treatment, he was always his own "001" number plate into the history of the showcase work.
Do not see as always to the Which child moves, the strict safety and a title, that is, "eclectic" it! Guess, definitely not smart, such as Ren Zhengfei are loss-making business, do not want to see the "permanent staff", perhaps he launched the "campaign" where the purpose of it!
Often a good thing wrong variable in an idea. Therefore, Huawei resignation door event, the mistake in the change of time, in the new "Labor Contract Law", before any sign of trouble, are prone to "Lenovo." Like studying, "Selected Works of Mao Zedong," the chief, how would not take this into account?
Tseng said that the "big soft non-flexible, flat to just not just." Chief starting point right, but rarely understood, because of his military background too Unyielding character, not know how to bypass. It appears that any general practice from the pure blue Art of War is still some distance.
NO.5 Gou: defenders of intellectual property monopoly or domineering
Terry Gou: born 1950, graduated from China Taiwan, "China's Hai." Taiwan's Hon Hai Group Chairman, Foxconn boss, Taiwan's richest man
Time: November 6, 2007
Location: Shenzhen

Synopsis: November 6, 2007, Foxconn, BYD First Instance (the largest mobile phone battery manufacturers) is suspected of stealing trade secrets case, ethnic restaurants in Beijing carried out a forensic hearings, and around the "plaintiff's business secret is not the exclusive "and other themes of the tit for tat debate.
As a company started by mobile phone batteries, a few years the rapid rise of 12.9 billion in 2006 revenue, the business has covered the cell phone battery, LCD screen, keyboard, etc. In addition to mobile phone chip mobile phone outside of almost all parts. In 2002, BYD a Nokia cell phone battery supplier, the Foxconn's dominant position have a strong impact. Since BYD has an advantage in price, originally Foxconn's customers have turned to BYD, Terry Gou is a worry.
Foxconn said the dig began in 2003 BYD Foxconn foot of a wall, more than 2005 executives to switch to BYD, and do not abide by a confidentiality agreement Foxconn's employees, the more copies of confidential documents away, so Foxconn loss heavy.
Square: Terry Gou is an intellectual property "fighters", his "no compromise" for the industry set a good example. Terry Gou and his reason to be on the BYD Foxconn sued because of intellectual property rights for investors and the company itself is a very important issue.
Against: more obvious. Terry Gou is the name of intellectual property rights "fighters" of the banner son monopoly of the real line. Foxconn's move is only the theft of trade secrets under the cover of BYD, BYD is actually hinder the spin-off handset business listing to contain rapidly growing competitors, dominate the lakes for their own cleared.
Comments:
Novelist Liu Zhen said, life can be divided into two types of sheep and wolf, the wolf is basically all the world is "a wolf dressed in sheep's clothing"; all the sheep are basically playing "Daweibalang." Terry Gou is the former, made a wolf, but also cold to.
However, Terry Gou to erase the mouth of the chicken blood, but not to erase the mouth of the feathers. On the Foxconn, the listing and financing BYD will become more lethal competitor, so it quickly before the listing in time for each other June 11, 2007 at the Hong Kong courts. September 27, BYD listing application again, Foxconn new to the Hong Kong High Court proceedings. So diametrically opposed, delayed offensive obvious - Gou like this to suppress competition, to stop and destroy each other's listing and financing. In view of this, the ever-cautious chairman Wang Chuanfu BYD Gou was openly accused of "deliberately disruptive."
In fact, Gou want to destroy his mortal malady, there is no need for a "naked" richest man richest man somehow a little grace, BYD can dig Foxconn undermining the foundation, why not poke each other Foxconn knife? Although some individual this is relentless - BYD in many business areas overlap with the Foxconn and took away a lot of orders for each other, and became the object of Nokia's train. However, Gou even vindictive, but also implied that, otherwise it not wronged their own identity.
NO.6 Kai-fu Lee: Localization of standard-bearer, or those who are disappointed
Kai-fu Lee: 1961 students, the people of Taiwan, received a Ph.D. in Computer Science at Carnegie Mellon University. July 2005 to join Google, so far as the post of President of China
Time: November 14, 2007
Location: Beijing
WHO: Kai-fu Lee
Company location: Google was founded in 1998 and headquartered in Mountain View, California, is the world's largest search engine. Listed on Nasdaq in 2004. In 2006, turnover of 10.604 billion U.S. dollars.
Synopsis: Ever since Kai-fu Lee left Microsoft to join Google that day, he is determined to realize the localization of Google China.
November 14, 2007, Kai-fu Lee admitted, 2007, Google has done a good localization in China, launched a total of 24 new localized products and services. He believes that in the past, Google through shareholding, acquisition, alliance and other efforts to upgrade their traffic. Including China Mobile, 3G gateway cooperation, into the mobile search; alliance Sina search; and End of the World co-operation ... ... In addition to the introduction of new products and services, in June 2007, Google will be the server moved to China.
Despite frequent moves, but the localization of Google in China do not satisfactory, and the market share continues to decline. From the research firm's data, the Chinese search market share, accounting for 65% of Baidu, Google is only about 20%. April 2007, Google Pinyin input method product launched, but was soon accused of theft Sohu part of their lexicon, "Sogou input method." Later, Google has been evasive on the matter, and quietly removed in the subsequent upgrade of the thesaurus with controversial content.
Square: Google in China only in 2007 on the introduction of a number of localized applications for Chinese users, its forceful, momentum Meng, Kai-fu Lee for the localization efforts for all to see. However, the localization is not achieved overnight, demanding in a short time to catch up or surpass Baidu Google China is not the reality, this is the unfairness of Kai-fu Lee.
Against: Kai-fu Lee is a native losers. Localization of international brands in the real system at the level of cultural compatibility. The higher the degree of this cultural compatibility, the higher the degree of localization of the brand. Kai-fu Lee as Chinese, also did not properly dealing with cultural compatibility, but the Google branded too much personal heroism. If we do not have to improve, Google will inevitably step Yahoo, Amazon and eBay footsteps and quit the Chinese.
Comments:
Yahoo, Amazon and eBay are frustrated to have to leave China, now the industry to open the "transnational successful Internet companies in China," the door that the keys are handed over to Chinese Kai-fu Lee. But now it seems the answer given by Kai-fu Lee is not optimistic.
The reason why the implementation of localization in China is not successful, the key is he forced to migrate to the Chinese American culture, not the Romans, integrate adaptation. Chinese people like simple, and even download Google Input great difficulty, so no one likes to beat around the bush.
Kai-fu Lee White Google more than two years, vowed from the original is still far from success. Entered in 2007, he was making every effort to change the pessimistic forecasts of the industry on Google, unfortunately that was not as anticipated as the development. Such as "Google IME", which simply is localized too far, the Chinese companies also love to spend with the plagiarism means, and accused of theft, "Sogou input method" part of the lexicon.
Everyone wants to know when Kai-fu Lee to lead the Google out of the global Internet companies failed in China's "curse," Schmidt said his boss can wait 5000 years, Kai-fu Lee did not know whether it is willing to wait that long. Nevertheless, he "localization" of the pain of suffering, but also a psychologically prepared to fight a protracted war.
NO.7 Charles Zhang: Traffic first or credit first
Charles Zhang: 1964, Xi'an, graduated from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, the current Chairman of the Board CEO, Sohu
Time: September 4, 2007
Location: Beijing
People: Charles Zhang
About the host: the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing Sohu Internet Content Service Sponsor, is a leading new media, communications and mobile value-added services company, July 12, 2000, Sohu officially listed on NASDAQ in the United States.
Synopsis: Alexa's statistics, as of August 26, 2007, Sohu, and Web site traffic in the overall rankings on the two key indicators, more than two weeks straight round over Sina. However, Charles Zhang's excitement can not last long, Alexa on August 30, 2007 public statistical data, Sohu rating fell from 22 to 48.
For this change, Sina secret that Sohu's ranking was the result of a significant decline because of traffic on Sohu previously tampered with. September 4, 2007, Charles Zhang held an emergency press conference in Beijing. At the meeting, he vowed: "I'm here to Chairman Mao assurance can swear, Sohu is absolutely no cheating."
Since the Internet to obtain the Olympic Games sponsor status, Sohu has declared: If you want to run with the Beijing Olympic Logo of online advertising, you must select Sohu. However, the September 13, 2007, a media report, FAW Volkswagen, Haier household appliances and other Olympic partners already running with the Olympic logo on Sina's online advertising.
Charles Zhang and his Sohu, seems to have become increasingly isolated.
Square: that Sohu false, but competitors of the ink, this war of words played at any time in China, surprising. Also, Charles Zhang allow a 2008 Beijing Olympics Internet content sponsor, is also the co-operation with the International Olympic Committee, the first portal, he created a precedent, and even he led the development of "Sogou input method" favored by the users , so that led to Google in China suspected of plagiarism, its innovation is evident.
Against: Charles Zhang swear to Chairman Mao, just Contrast his "guilty conscience." Sohu content when the Olympic Games is not simply motivated sponsors, would like to report a profit by monopolizing the Olympics, completely contrary to the Olympic Games, "open, fair and impartial," the concept of public participation. Charles Zhang do not want to become "the first head of the Olympic co-portal" and the ignominious fall reputation.
Comments:
As a Chinese Internet portal has been able to start three patriarchs are still working hard in the only fruits, Charles Zhang, the explanation given is "their good character." So, when false rumors Sohu flow, he would resemble that of being a great "unredressed injustice", and hurried out of Chairman Mao to prove his innocence. The results are self-defeating and will only make people feel admitting their guilt.
Charles Zhang boss to do or can understand the feelings, so Sohu Home of "China's largest portal site," in large letters down knew it was strange, though many people prefer to believe that SINA is the first global Chinese community portal.
In fact, not Dengxianzhibei Sina, although a single business model, but it indeed is second to none in the news, from traffic and advertising revenue perspective, it is the first portal directly. Thus, while Charles Zhang insisted diversified development path and its Sogou input method, Sohu Entertainment, blog, online games and other services, the company recently gained a lot of popularity, but to do the portal boss, I am afraid that need time.
Not everyone will be "about each other go", the level of attainment is not enough, inevitably self-slapped in the face. Sohu is not the first portal? Inside how much water? People had a steelyard. Zhang Chaoyang need for a catchy title and Taidongganhuo.
Finally, Charles Zhang Mao Yeye was not bothered at all.
NO.8 Ma: Internet Godfather or loose-tongued, the "cannon"
Ma: 1964, Hangzhou, who in 1988 graduated from Hangzhou Normal University Foreign Language Department, Alibaba Chairman and CEO. December 2004, won the Award for CCTV annual economic figures
Time: November 6, 2007
Location: Hangzhou
People: Ma
About the host: Alibaba is headquartered in Hangzhou, the world's largest B2B e-commerce platform for small and medium enterprises around the world to provide an effective B2B e-commerce solutions.
Synopsis: November 6, 2007, the company was listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, the opening price of 30 Hong Kong dollars, representing an issue price of 13.5 Hong Kong dollars rose 122%, finance 1.7 billion, a record size of Chinese Internet companies financing the most.
Ma has described his ideal way of e-business world: "Yahoo to use their content to affect the user's consumption preferences and habits, with the demand, the users can Taobao transactions, and their sources can be obtained from Alibaba . search is leading to these users, and Alibaba's Taobao access, and Alipay is the platform for all payment transactions. "Today, Alibaba e-commerce started to map out the complete profile and become a competitor of all Internet companies.
Alibaba sources, about 60% of the amount of the financing will be used for strategic acquisitions or business development. However, analysts pointed out that the shop may have front Alibaba wide enough, Ma can operate well on existing business are good. IResearch Consulting's data show that the first three quarters of 2007, China Baidu search engine market share accounted for 60.8%, Google 23.8%, while Yahoo was only 10.4%.
Square: founder of Alibaba, then on the C2C, search engine development, Ma is building an ecosystem of their own Internet and become a strong competitor to all Internet companies, "Internet godfather" of the throne must go to him. And this listing will help Alibaba to expand the international market and increase the international influence.
Against: Ma is too grandiose, yet to digest the existing business, we must rush to finance acquisitions, too hasty, and big or doing fine is two different things entirely different. To Yahoo search, for example, did not show due to the power, and signs of being marginalized. Ma, or should be down to earth, do not pick up the sesame seeds of a watermelon.
Comments:
"Wearing a telescope can not find our competitors!" This obscurity only "business philosopher" Ma say.
The statue did not speak obscuration of the "cannon", the least is the lack of eloquence, "satellite" is his greatest strength. In his eyes, were more daring, to the extent of production. As early as 2005, he was released in public pronouncements: "Alibaba tax 1 million yuan per day." Astonishingly, the last being exposed a tell your - from the company's earnings per day, tax is also less than 300,000 yuan.
In addition, the company was listed, not entirely a good thing, took investors money to buy, is to take responsibility, financing more burden of the more important. The most critical is that after listing the company's information will be transparent, "artillery" will possibly be as "dumb"!
Alibaba's multi-faceted attack, Ma has planted a hidden danger, the Yahoo search, Baidu and Google in the attack, completely reduced to second-class role, market share has shrunk dramatically. Diversified business, with a less mature management team, after the listing Alibaba how far?

Square: Chen Shoufu is a program that genius, QQ can find loopholes in the original version of the show based on the IP address of increased functionality, and can remove the pop-up ads, so corals becoming their favorite version, he did a good thing . Meanwhile, he also enhance the visibility Tencent flow and made great contributions to China provides a new choice for Internet users, Tencent he should not be so ruthless.
Against: With Tencent's platform for their own profit-making private, Chen Shoufu is pay the price for their greed, Tencent did what it should do. He directed the largest generated because of changes in software copyright infringement case, as a university teacher, but a weak awareness of copyright, in the interests of the temptation, made a pathetic "coral."
Comments:
Chen Shoufu always wanted to be controversial figure. Therefore, he developed the North Polytechnic FTP Union (Beijing Institute of Technology one of the four schools forum), the Forum page that says "do controversial alliance, made a controversial person."
There are two days, one is smart, one is foolish. Chen Shoufu intelligence can not be doubted, he found QQ's weaknesses and make improvements, but became a prisoner. Surface incentive is his bank account, the rapid increase of more than 110 million of deposits, the real reason he invaded and occupied Tencent vested interests.
Rang Rang world are all for money. At first, Chen Shoufu is really convenient for users, like users are thinking. Unfortunately he is not Huolei Feng, lured by the profits to be prodding, began bundling adware. Chen Shoufu is a "stop-gap of coral", is the next victim of temptation.
It seems to perpetrating a fraud of ability, but not to use it in the right path, Chen Shoufu fall into the trap of their own design, to their sigh. Now, Chen Shoufu final outcome is still unknown, but the industry hope that the lessons it brings, allows the definition of intellectual property rights in China changed from a vague definition.

As of 2005, Changhong brand value has risen to 39,861,000,000 yuan.
Synopsis: November 4, 2007 morning, Zhenjiang City, Town, high-specialized households for a duck in charge of the Changhong brand cell phone exploded, igniting duck shed, resulting in more than a hundred ducks into a "duck."
Wan Jianming, the individual ability is no doubt that high-profile access to Changhong, 2005, in the company's full authority, the National Rainbow communications growing rapidly, particularly 2006-2007, with TV direct sales, phone sales skyrocket Changhong. Wan Jianming, said a few months ago, on sales of more than 600,000 mobile phone units, the product sold out of stock. According to statistics, in 2006, the National Rainbow Communications completed 1.627 billion yuan of sales income. The view from the first half of 2007, also achieved good results, and completed 850 million yuan of sales revenue, gross margin handset business, second only to TV in the Changhong Group business.
However, the rise of mobile phone business, bringing to Changhong is a series of questions followed, first as "champion phone" quality, is frequently complaints; then, "light mobile phone" because of false information caused great controversy ; soon, Changhong cell phone explosion, triggering a fire ... ... for an old brand of Changhong suffered question.
Square: Wan Jianming, the mobile phone is a rare madman, he will Changhong phone from an unknown hand, brought the focus of the industry, contributed. Everywhere, he could focus everyone's attention. China needs foreign brands that he determined to break the superstition of the self-confidence and courage, Wan Jianming, the domestic mobile phone to bring a ray of hope and vitality.

Only sales, regardless of quality, quick success of the bad quality of Chinese mobile phone Wan Jianming, who has been reflected in his cell phone to Changhong distorted from the beginning has thought long and let the Changhong brand been controversial.
Comments:
According to the older generation of Sichuan in old areas of social Chengyu unique "Pao Ge" bad habit is to take some taste of self-worship. Therefore, the claim with "Pao Ge" Wan Jianming, also contracted the bad habit of preaching the quirks - the mobile phone market share in the domestic situation is far less well than others, he also considered the quality of Changhong's mobile phone par with foreign brands.
No one believes in vigorously advocating Changhong phone waterproof, compression, power and other functions and never after the recently Wan Jianming, never let it explode to create mobile phone.
Kraft will blow big explosion, not the pursuit of quality of Changhong phone will burst. How, when he faced only a "roasted duck breast," when, how to go chew your say those words? If there is such a thing, Wan Jianming even been duck restaurant owners forget to do.
"Stage of the problem is exaggerated propaganda, as long as there will channel integrity." Gu jump to guess that consumers also changes in function that Changhong phone exaggerated to cover up deficiencies, who dare, and with Wan Jianming of risk?
Wan Jianming, when in the TCL, we used this trick. Now he has to go on the old road.
