Chapter 402 - 267: Anguo Anzao or Anjing Anzao? (2)
The two sides tore each other apart, attacking each other, accusing each other.
On the evening of November 3, 2010, at 6:00 PM, Penguin released an open letter claiming that its chat software would stop functioning on computers with 360 software installed, demanding the uninstallation of 360 before logging into their chat software. This was Penguin’s most dramatic action in a series of disputes with 360, leaving many netizens caught in the crossfire.
This move caused a stir in the industry, and netizens were outraged. Industry insiders felt that Penguin’s tactic was forcing users to make a choice between the two.
According to 360 CEO Zhou Hongyi, the number of 360 software users forced to uninstall reached 60 million.
Due to the widespread concern caused by the incident, on the morning of November 5, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and the Internet Association held a meeting to discuss measures in response to this issue.
Government departments intervened, using administrative orders to demand both parties cease their disputes and refrain from releasing any news or information that incites the matter.
On November 10, 360 announced that it had restored compatibility with Penguin and published an announcement titled "Thank You!" on its official website to thank users for their support of 360 software, providing contact details of relevant departments, and reminding users to report any conflicts between the two software.
"No abandonment, no giving up, 360 thanks you! Only during times of crisis do we know who is the most trustworthy. Today, we send you a thank-you letter, and everyone who receives this letter is the most trusted person by 360."
On November 21, 2010, Penguin Company released an apology letter titled "Together With You." The conflict between the two sides was formally resolved under the intervention of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology.
"Learning from pain, there are many aspects worthy of reflection in our approach to handling and communicating with users. Initially, we focused on issues like ’who’s right and who’s wrong’ and ’true or false,’ while ignoring the feelings of the users.
Whether in the past, now, or in the future, our wish remains unchanged: to be together with you."
Since then, although the 3Q battle has come to an end, the subsequent development of the 3Q battle has not ended, with three lawsuits still ongoing.
The third lawsuit is 360 suing Penguin Company, with 360 accusing Penguin Company of abusing its market dominance and launching an antitrust lawsuit, seeking compensation for the significant losses caused by Penguin Company’s "one or the other" behavior during the 3Q battle, demanding 150 million Huaxia currency. This 360 lawsuit against Penguin Company is dubbed the "First Huaxia Antitrust Case."
These three lawsuits dragged on for a long time, and by the time the final judgments were made, it was already 2014.
Besides the attention drawn by the 3Q battle, the thousand group battle was also raging fiercely at the time.
However, Yi Anguo already knew the outcome long ago, so he did not pay excessive attention to these matters, nor did he have any intention to intervene or get involved.
No matter who wins or loses, it does not have much impact on him.
Yi Anguo returned, much to the joy of the children, and of course, the women around him.
However, today there’s a special mother and daughter duo at home—Han Ying and her daughter Duo Duo.
After years of business training, Han Ying is now vastly different from the Han Ying of the past. She is now a bona fide businesswoman who has gained Hu Jing’s trust, assisting Hu Jing in business expansion, developing the Anjing franchise convenience stores to neighboring provinces in Guangdong, and doing quite well.
Meanwhile, Han Ying’s current income is naturally quite substantial, earning millions each year, which is quite normal.
As an Executive Director of the Marketing Department at Anjing Business Trading Company, how could the salary and benefits not be high?
Little Duo Duo addresses Yi Anguo joyfully as "Dad," which makes Han Ying blush, feeling quite embarrassed.
Yi Anguo always brings gifts for the children, and Duo Duo is rarely left out. After all, Duo Duo frequently visits his home, and after all these years, he truly regards her as his own child.
Now, Han Ying is more mature than before, even her overall demeanor has changed significantly, making her look more beautiful and poised than before.
Previously, Han Ying gave the impression of being timid and in need of protection, but now she is completely different, embodying the image of a strong businesswoman.
"I haven’t been home for so long, has anything important happened?"
After playing around with the children for a while, Yi Anguo sends them off to play by themselves, then sits on the sofa, takes a sip of tea, and smiles slightly as he speaks.
"Nothing important has happened, everything’s fine at home. The company affairs are managed by the executives and professional managers, and everything is running normally. What big event could occur?" Hu Jing said with a smile.
"Why talk about company matters at home? In the future, let’s not discuss company affairs at home," Li Shanshan objected discontentedly.
"Speaking of which, many of the current daily necessities are either poor quality or too expensive." Li Sisi remarked.
"We not only have Anjing Online Supermarket but also offline supermarkets and franchise convenience stores. We don’t even know how many various daily necessities need to be sold every day. We can completely launch our own brand, primarily producing daily necessities such as bedding, everyday clothing, and shoes, and even products like rice, noodles, grains, and oils, focusing on high-quality and affordable prices. Not only is the quality good, but the price is also not expensive, and the profits shouldn’t be bad either."
