Zhou: Lice are not afraid of itching.

On the afternoon of September 16, after the Hong Kong stock market closed, Tencent and Sohu announced jointly that Tencent would inject its main assets into the Sogou and pay 448 million of dollars in cash to become an important shareholder in Sogou. So far, the dog's whereabouts finally dust settled.

Of course, this also shows that with Sogou's merger rumors have lasted for several months of odd Tigers 360, out! In this case, Zhou in the Search engine field at least 5 times out, had to Zhou sigh: why is it always me?

Four-war search engine three outs

Zhou and search of the story, is a secret of the "unprecedented love": from the year 3721, a net, Qihoo search, until now 360 comprehensive search has been Zhou four-war search, and the first three times are "grief out."

The first time to do the search was founded in Zhou 3721, which is the first real name service to achieve the profit of the Internet search service. At that time, users are more willing to access the Internet content and services through the address bar rather than the search box, the Chinese real name to meet the needs of users; At the same time, the whole China has more than 100,000 people to do 3721 agents, sales of 3721 Chinese real-name services, Zhou therefore known as "the Father

2002, 3721 regardless of flow, revenue, are far beyond Baidu, Google. 2003, 3721 but to 120 million U.S. dollars sold to Yahoo, the opportunity to give Baidu, Google. This becomes Zhou heart forever pain.

2003, Google listed as a new Internet benchmark. When the Yahoo China president of the Zhou 祎 launched a "search," the intention to consolidate 3721 network real name, Yahoo search (YST), become China's Google. This is Zhou 祎 World War II search.

But because of the bureaucracy of multinational corporations and the distrust of Yahoo's China management team by its headquarters, the strategy has been delayed indefinitely. And 2005, Baidu successfully listed, the day the stock price over 138 U.S. dollars, China Google's label posted to Baidu.

2005, Zhou reluctantly left Yahoo to join IDC, Transition angel investors. But he did not read the search, the same year, the odd tiger low-key set up, the target is "picture + community" search, but this demand did not exist. At the same time, Fu as the CEO of the security guards of the rise, Zhou fought free anti-virus, after the 3Q war Qihoo 360 successful listing.

Last August 15, Zhou again launched the 360 comprehensive search, but did not want the fate of its exit is still continuing.

Two times in the face of Sogou

About Sogou this time, there have been various rumors that the relationship between Charles Zhang and Zhou good. Rumors may be true, but the final outcome of the purchase decision, is Sogou CEO Wang Xiaoquan. For his own position, he will swear against "Tiger dog fit". This is a shopping mall, friendship to make a good profit.

In the newly established Sogou company, Wang Xiaoquan is the management team's Toolpusher head, has saved the position. If 360 to buy Sogou, where is the location of the Wang Xiaoquan? Search First World War, 360 life and death, Zhou will roll up their sleeves to dry, Wang Xiaoquan only to the side station.

So far, Zhou has two degrees grief Sohu: 2010, Ma Yun Bad Zhou Good things, Alibaba Investment Co., Ltd., Yunfeng Fund investment Sogou; three years later, Ma Teng broke the Zhou good things.

The reason for the two-degree sniper Zhou is simple: hatred. 2006, Zhou push 360 security guards directly to do away with 3721,3721 revenue once more than Baidu, then 3721 or Ali group most profitable business, annual revenue of more than 1 billion yuan.

2010, China's internet industry has an unprecedented impact of the "3Q War."

Zhou had such a summary of their own: broke a lot of people to the public, recruit a lot of people hate.
