Rivers and lakes rumored that the Lu Qi people have AI world.
This is not only due to Lu Qi’s previous excellent resume, but also from the big change he made to Baidu in any year, bringing Baidu’s market value from $60 billion to a market value of $98 billion, and more from the fact that he left to Baidu. The market value of $13 billion fell.
Baidu lost the land, the world has a total.
Tencent, Ali, Xiaomi, Didi, ..., China's Internet squad are watching: The news we get is that not only one big scorpion has obtained Lu Qi's contact information through various channels, but the intention is not simple chat. Not only that, but Chinese and foreign investors have also joined the "Lu Qi battle": In the investment circle, there has been news that "Lu Qi will give an angel of 1 billion dollars as long as he starts a business."
But Lu Qi has only one, who will laugh at the end?
First question: Does Xiaomi need Lu Qi? Will Lu Qi go to Xiaomi?
Relatively speaking, in many rumors, Xiaomi seems to be the best place for Lu Qi.
According to rumors, Lu Qi will join Xiaomi as a partner, responsible for the mobile AI business. In this regard, the Xiaomi public relations level gave a clarification for the first time.
However, no wind and no waves, Lei Jun is also a "love talent", and whether there is contact with Lu Qi is still unknown. After the news came out, the media's response was extremely consistent: this is a big plus for the upcoming Xiaomi, and Luke will be a good opportunity to show his ambitions.
First of all, from the perspective of listing, Lu Qi’s participation will increase Xiaomi’s valuation a lot: after submitting the prospectus, according to media reports, Xiaomi’s valuation may be 70 billion US dollars, which obviously cannot satisfy Lei Jun.
However, as far as the prospectus is concerned, the annual income is 100 billion yuan and the operating profit is 12.215 billion yuan. For the mobile phone business, which accounts for 70% of revenue, Lei Jun also promised that the hardware comprehensive net profit rate will never exceed 5%. These will all be important factors influencing their high valuation.
In addition, Xiaomi is also wearing the hat of “is a technology company, not a high-tech companyâ€: from the prospectus, in the three years from 2015 to 2017, its R&D investment was 1.511 billion yuan, 21.04. 100 million yuan, 3.151 billion yuan, accounting for 2.26%, 3.07%, and 2.75% of revenue; compared with Huawei's proportion of R&D investment of more than 10%, Xiaomi's R&D investment is insufficient. .
Lu Qi is considered to be a "world-class talent". Not only has he has strong technical strength, but he also lived in Microsoft and became the highest-ranking Chinese in the US technology giant. The management level is unquestionable. During the period, Baidu’s performance from the market value of 60 billion US dollars to the market value of US$98 billion was enough to make Lei Jun, who was not satisfied with the valuation, gain the best.
Secondly, from the perspective of Xiaomi's future core strategy, it also urgently needs Lu Qi in the field of artificial intelligence. In the prospectus, Lei Jun has always emphasized that Xiaomi is an Internet company with mobile phones, intelligent hardware and IoT platform as its core. From its establishment in 2011 to the current 190 million active mobile Internet users, Xiaomi has built the world's largest consumer-grade IoT. Networked platform, currently connected to nearly 100 million smart devices.
In terms of artificial intelligence, Xiaomi has spared no effort like other technology companies. For this reason, Lei Jun invited his alumnus and roommate Cui Baoqiu to Xiaomi as vice president of artificial intelligence and cloud platform.
From the layout point of view, Xiaomi has the advantages of software and data in doing AI, and has a wide ecological chain advantage. According to the prospectus, as of March 31, 2018, Xiaomi invested or incubated more than 210 companies, including 90 companies focused on developing smart hardware and consumer products to strengthen the Xiaomi ecosystem.
However, Xiaomi artificial intelligence started late, and there is still a big gap in terms of technology accumulation compared with giants such as Google, Baidu and Amazon. Therefore, Dr. Cui Baoqiu once said that artificial intelligence is the core strategy of Xiaomi in the next decade, and Xiaomi’s investment in artificial intelligence is no exaggeration.
Lu Qi’s authority in artificial intelligence has no need to be questioned.
Not only that, but Lu Qi and Lei Jun are still familiar: In June 2017, Lu Qi visited Xiaomi's home and discussed the development trend of artificial intelligence with Lei Jun. At the first IoT platform developer conference of Xiaomi, Baidu and Xiaomi To achieve cooperation and work together to build a soft and hard "IoT+AI" ecosystem, Lu Qi also came to the platform personally.
However, what kind of identity can Xiaomi and Lei Jun give to Lu Qi? Want to impress Lu Qi, can the "No. 2" character Lei Jun give? If you can give, what should Lin Bin and Li Wanqiang do?
Lu Qi will not want to have another fight.
