Rebirth in 1985

Chapter 961 Four Years (Part 1)

Phoenix Group is developing at a high speed. With Lu Shaohua as the boss, the employees are working very hard. It can be said without hesitation that Phoenix Group without Lu Shaohua is a carriage with two horses. The power is enough, but it has not reached the limit. Phoenix Group with Lu Shaohua is like a carriage with four horses, full of power.

Under this circumstance, Phoenix Group worked hard as a whole and achieved remarkable results in its development. Four full years passed like this. When the calendar turned to 2006, the summary of the year was finally here.

That's right, when Lu Shaohua went to Phoenix Group to take charge it was already the end of 2001, and there were only a few days left until the beginning of 2002, which was almost negligible. Now it is January 2006, and it is not an exaggeration to say that four years have passed.

To be honest, in the past four years, Lu Shaohua has truly felt that Phoenix Group is different from before, not only in development, but also in the cohesion of its employees. Lu Shaohua also feels that the current Phoenix Group is an integrated whole, with everyone working together to continuously push this giant Phoenix Group to the top.

But now Lu Shaohua no longer has the mind to think about what happened in the past four years. What Lu Shaohua is thinking about now is this summary meeting. Phoenix Group will hold a summary meeting once a year. This summary meeting is attended by a large number of people, from all the senior executives of Phoenix Group to all the low-level managers.

As the person hosting this meeting, it was natural for Lu Shaohua to feel pressured. Fortunately, Lu Shaohua had many years of experience, so he didn't have to cram at the last minute.

What Lu Shaohua didn't expect was that when he started writing the speech, he found that there was a lot of data that needed to be queried. As a last resort, Lu Shaohua could only call each subsidiary and ask them to provide a year's data one by one. Lu Shaohua then picked out some key points and added them to the speech as strong evidence of his speech.

It took Lu Shaohua one day to finish writing the speech, and a summary meeting was held the next day.

This summary meeting lasted nearly five hours, from 8 am to 1 pm. If it weren't for the fact that everyone hadn't eaten, the meeting wouldn't have ended. But now it's finally over, and Lu Shaohua breathed a sigh of relief.

Watching the employees of Phoenix Group leave one by one, Lu Shaohua suddenly felt a little proud. Yes, those who left the conference room were the pillars of Phoenix Group. Without them, there would be no Phoenix Group today.

On the contrary, those who can enter Phoenix Group and serve as senior management, middle management, and lower management are all capable people, the elite among the elites, and these people work under him. How can Lu Shaohua not be proud?

After a long time, Lu Shaohua sighed lightly, and when he came to his senses, he found that besides him, Qin Sichen was the only one left in the conference room. At this moment, Qin Sichen was staring at him in a daze without any movement.

Seeing this, Lu Shaohua smiled gently, and then said, "Let's go home and have dinner."

The summary meeting is over and it is time for Phoenix Group to go on holiday. The holiday lasts for a week. Except for some staff on duty, everyone else will enjoy a week's holiday. The same goes for Lu Shaohua and Qin Sichen. They also give themselves some vacation time.

After returning home and having a quick lunch, Lu Shaohua was about to go back to his room to rest for a while, but was stopped by Qin Sichen. "Xiaohua, I want to bring Yuting to Hong Kong. She is already eight years old, but she has always been in her hometown."

"Yeah." Lu Shaohua was a little slow to react, and after a pause, he said, "Yes, Xiao Yuting is already eight years old, and it's time to take her over."

"You agree?"

"agreed."

……

Lu Shaohua returned to his room, but he was not sleepy at all. The reason for this was that Lu Shaohua was lost in memories. As Qin Sichen said, Lu Yuting was already eight years old and had been born for eight years, but Lu Shaohua left her in her hometown and only went home to see her occasionally, but he never let her experience the warmth brought by her parents.

Guilt, Lu Shaohua felt very guilty, but fortunately Qin Sichen's reminder prevented Lu Shaohua from making a big mistake. It is not too late to take her in and make it up to her now.

"Hey……"

Lu Shaohua, lying on the bed, sighed deeply, his thoughts flying around in his mind. Everything that happened in the past appeared in his mind one by one, like a movie.

Especially in the past four years, these four years have not been peaceful. Although there have not been any major disturbances, Lu Shaohua truly feels that undercurrents are constantly surging.

The rapid development of Phoenix Group has made everyone feel uneasy, and various obstacles have appeared one after another. Fortunately, Phoenix Group is strong, and Lu Shaohua is very intelligent, so they have overcome all the obstacles and brought Phoenix Group to where it is today.

Apart from the obstacles, Phoenix Group has also achieved gratifying results, especially its several major businesses, which have made rapid progress and are truly second to none. Well, it is the kind that has a long gap and will not be surpassed in the next ten years unless there is a major change in Phoenix Group.

Phoenix Computer has a global market share of 73.2%, which is an absolutely terrifying number. If it were a few years ago, it would have been easy to occupy 60% of the market share, but as the market share increases, it becomes more difficult to go further.

But now it has improved to 73.2%, which is definitely an overwhelming figure. Almost all computers on the market are from Phoenix Group, and other brands of computers only account for a small share.

However, with the development of the economy, computers have become popular. There are billions of people in the world, so there is a lot of room left, which will not make it impossible for computer companies of other brands to survive.

This is true for Phoenix computers and Phoenix cars. With the continuous advancement of technology, every part of Phoenix cars is now at the forefront of the world. It can be said that compared with other brands of cars, Phoenix cars are perfect.

As the production line expanded, Phoenix Automobile's costs decreased and its prices also dropped accordingly. As a result, Phoenix Automobile's share became even larger, now accounting for 66.1% of the market share.

The figure of 66.1% is only for one Phoenix Auto brand. You should know that Phoenix Auto has two other brands, namely Toyota and Rolls-Royce. However, these two brands are not the main brands of Phoenix Group, so the market share they occupy is not very large, accounting for 13% and 2.3% respectively.

Phoenix Computer and Phoenix Auto have achieved unsurpassed results, but they are not the best. The best is Phoenix Tencent. Phoenix Tencent is the best subsidiary of Phoenix Group. It now occupies 90% of the global instant messaging market share and is almost monopolized.

Phoenix Tencent has also transformed from a multi-billion dollar company into a network communications company with a market value of hundreds of billions of dollars. Yes, hundreds of billions of dollars, of course, this is the entire Phoenix Tencent, not just the QQ chat software.

You have to know that Phoenix Tencent includes the information sector, and has launched a variety of casual games and online games. It is normal that the market value will reach hundreds of billions of dollars.

It is worth mentioning that Phoenix Tencent now completely belongs to Lu Shaohua personally. Ma Huateng withdrew his shares three years ago. It was not that Ma Huateng did not want to invest, but that Ma Huaben took the initiative to withdraw his shares.

As for the reason, it started with a major event that happened three years ago. Three years ago, a super virus appeared on the Internet. This super virus was written for QQ chat software. Any user who started the QQ software would be infected.

In this way, Phoenix Tencent was involved. Many users once refused to use the QQ software, and some users demanded compensation from Phoenix Tencent.

At that time, Phoenix Tencent almost went bankrupt. Fortunately, Phoenix Group was strong, which saved Phoenix Tencent. In the end, the virus was successfully resolved, which prevented the QQ software from sinking.

However, on that occasion, Ma Huateng withdrew his shares. Speaking of withdrawal, it was Lu Shaohua who asked him to withdraw on his own initiative. To use Ma Huateng's words at the time, he wanted to live and die with Phoenix and Tencent. But in the end, he was persuaded to withdraw by Lu Shaohua. Lu Shaohua bought 20% of the shares from Ma Huateng at the market value and paid Ma Huateng hundreds of billions of dollars in cash.

It is undeniable that Lu Shaohua had some sinister intentions at the time, and he took advantage of that opportunity to take over the entire Phoenix Tencent for himself. But we cannot say that Lu Shaohua was so sinister, because once the incident escalated and could not be resolved, Phoenix Tencent would go bankrupt, and Ma Huateng would not get a penny, and might even be involved in a protracted lawsuit.

Ma Huateng sold his shares, but he still stayed in Phoenix Tencent, serving as the executive president of Phoenix Tencent, his only identity minus that of a shareholder.

Once, Lu Shaohua asked Ma Huateng whether he regretted selling his shares. Ma Huateng replied that he did not regret it. On the contrary, he should thank Lu Shaohua.

But think about it, Ma Huateng should be content. 20% of the shares exchanged for hundreds of billions of dollars. If he spends frugally, it will be enough for his descendants to spend. More importantly, Ma Huateng is now the executive president of Phoenix Tencent. He can get tens of millions of dollars in salary and dividends every year. He is the working emperor. What is there for him to be dissatisfied about?

Think about the past, he had nothing. If Lu Shaohua hadn't found him, he wouldn't be where he is today. People should be grateful. It was Lu Shaohua who changed his destiny. If he is still not satisfied, then people like him are destined to be kicked out of Phoenix Tencent by Lu Shaohua.

But no matter what, Lu Shaohua has completely taken control of Phoenix Tencent. The current market value of Phoenix Tencent has exceeded hundreds of billions of dollars. It has grown into a giant in the Internet industry, and no one can threaten its position.

Isn't it? 90% market share, that's no joke, nine out of ten people who use online chat software use QQ, this is really a once-in-a-century grand occasion.
