NET-Host Technology Chairman response sleeve is denied acquisition

Recently, the Internet technology listing, has been in the gem "Public opinion Storm" core. From the initial senior management turnover, performance deceleration, to today's market, the new rumors of "senior executives two times", the acquisition of the protagonist also from Xinhua to Tencent constantly changing. These let the network host technology Chairman Liu Chengyan finally some "sit not live", recently Liu Chengyan accept "first Financial daily" exclusive interview said "even once set now have no, where two times." The news surprised me by surprise. If Tencent wants to buy, it must be the first I know, even I do not know the news, how come out? ”

June 17 before the suspension, only 6 trading days, the cumulative increase in Internet technology has been up to 44.17%, at one point the first two cities to rise. After June 21, the card-netting technology declined by more than 5%. The source of ups and downs, Liu Chengyan that is "false" rumors. In the interview with this newspaper, Liu Chengyan positive response to public suspicion.

First Financial daily: If you explain to the public, what kind of company is web-hosting technology, what would you say?

Liu Chengyan: Few people before the market to understand our company, but our customers are familiar with, for example, Sina, Tencent, Sohu, NetEase, Taobao, potatoes and so on. In a word, network technology is a platform based on the Internet Business services provider, is a technology-focused service company.

Whether on the Internet to see the World Cup or the World Expo, may be every Netizen browsing the Web site to enjoy the Internet technology services, but most netizens never heard of us, because we have been to the major sites silently do technical services. More than half of our more than 2000 customers have cooperated for more than 5 years.

Daily: After the listing of many gem companies were pushed to the front, the pressure of senior executives is very large, the Internet technology after the listing of the situation is what?

Liu Chengyan: Before listing we rely on the technology to eat, as long as more than 2000 (customer number) of the CTO (Technical director) recognized us. I think we are more like the "behind the scenes" of the Chinese Internet, the listing in some way let us from behind the scenes.

The biggest change is the public's concern is completely different, before we do technology, research and development, do business, they know it can, do not need to deal with the outside world, do not need outside understanding, now not, if not all aspects of communication are questioned. Today, communication with the outside world has become a more important task. For a listed company, to make the public understand, accurate information dissemination and ideal communication is also a part of corporate social responsibility.

Daily: Last year's annual Report and quarterly report show that the net-bed technology performance is general, how do you think of this problem? What is your forecast for the next year's performance?

Liu Chengyan: For this issue we have a bulletin, also opened a note will, in addition to last year's national reorganization of the Internet indirectly caused some losses, the introduction of high-end marketing personnel at the same time improve the remuneration of marketing staff, 2009, the company's marketing cost growth faster, year-on-year growth of 87.98%; For the long-term development of the company, we have increased research and development efforts, research and development investment amounted to 14.98 million yuan, an increase of 47.3%; In addition, the company increased IDC (computer room hosting service) and CDN (Network Accelerator Service) service platform construction input, a new batch of mobile Internet and overseas CDN Acceleration node. Last year, the new fixed assets amount of 61.6467 million yuan.

The reasons for the performance are market reasons and accidental reasons. We rely on technology to eat, rely on technology development, so in the increase in research and development on the basis of our performance has also recovered, this year's data can be found in the semi-annual report, and for this year's performance I am not convenient to predict.

Daily: Network accommodation technology listed three months after the general manager Peng resigned, since then you have been the CEO of the Post, the reason for what?

Liu Chengyan: Peng is the investment bank that comes out of the investment banking background. Undeniably, he has made a very important contribution during the work of Internet science and technology, especially in the process of financing listing. After the listing, he left the company due to personal career planning, expertise, interest and other reasons, which has little impact on the company's business and next development.

I personally was at the end of 2000 to join the net-bed technology, previously in Zhongguancun business, and then do COO in million nets. Came to the net has been 10 years, this 10 years I think found a more suitable for their own stage, the net is my life's cause.

Daily: According to the performance statement, CDN is your main business, and Tencent is your first major customer. Now Tencent has started to build its own CDN, and what is the impact on Internet technology?

Liu Chengyan: This is a misunderstanding outside, Tencent, Youku is not this year began to build CDN, before we and Tencent, Youku set up business partnerships, they have been built CDN.

We initially found Tencent, is the confidence of our own technology, let it try our products, the results of the trial, Tencent found that our cost-effective and technical advantages are very obvious, so the CDN business outsourcing to us. Tencent is a very good company, developed a lot of new products, we have a lot of their new products customized CDN business, cooperation has been very happy, we have learned from Tencent, a lot of things, a short period of time the cooperative relationship will not change.

Before someone thought we have what background and so many big companies have a cooperative relationship, in fact, I believe that as long as we continue to improve the technology level, there will be more and more companies to outsource the CDN to us.

Daily: There are rumors that Tencent is interested in acquiring network accommodation technology, via landed a A-shares, some people think that the network technology in this way "circle money" "two times".

Liu Chengyan: We are listed only 9 months, even once set is not, where to two times. If there is such a big event, the first time will be announced.

Daily: Investors are very concerned about the core competitiveness of Internet technology, we want to know from the Chairman's point of view, how do you interpret the core competitiveness of Internet technology?

Liu Chengyan: I do not want to say that the Internet technology received a variety of awards, share, recognition number. Network accommodation technology business is mainly CDN and IDC two aspects. CDN in China is still a breeding stage, these years in China to develop relatively fast. This is a highly customized service, each customer needs a different product. This needs CDN's service provider first has the core technical ability, second has the large-scale network management ability. In this regard, the Internet technology than other operators have advantages.

2009, our technical input is close to 15 million, the company is very satisfied with the growth of CDN business.

IDC, due to excessive competition and other issues, the current industry gross margin is too low, but this is the Internet platform for the basic services, we will not give up. In my opinion, the next stage is characterized by the stage of service, we also developed a number of features of new products, continuous innovation, in the search for new business model innovation.
