Chapter 343: Setting up one's own business
With the help of the co-branded Shenzhou USB flash drive, Tianya Input Method has been able to survive the past few years, and the domestic Internet is almost in full swing.
When the time comes, whether the input method is advertised online, or hardware products such as simultaneous translation headsets and translators are launched, Tianya Input Method will not be able to lose money. If it is more aggressive, it can be split and listed on the market.
Furthermore, in the future, it will also become one of the most important traffic drainage platforms under Donglin Hi-Tech. Even if it really suffers a loss, Tianya Company can afford it.
For Tianya Input Method, whether now or in the future, Li Dongling has given corresponding countermeasures, which also allows Zhou Zhijin and the input method R&D team to continue to develop and upgrade Tianya Input Method with peace of mind.
After hearing Li Dongling's proposal to bundle with the Shenzhou USB flash drive to solve the urgent problem of Tianya input method, Zhou Zhijun, Zhu Chongjun and others all looked at Li Dongling with complicated eyes. They felt that this method would definitely work.
Shenzhou USB flash drives are still hot-selling. In other words, as long as new computer users continue to increase, the number of users of Shenzhou USB flash drives will continue to increase.
Is the Pinyin input method a rigid need? Before other Pinyin input methods appear, in a sense, it is also another rigid need. For users who are new to computers, or do not have time, or do not For those who are willing to learn Wubi, it is a must-have!
Together the two rigid needs, Tianya’s co-branded Shenzhou USB flash drive, cannot be justified if the sales volume does not increase.
Now Zhou Zhiyi and the others suddenly understood why Dongling Hi-Tech was able to develop so rapidly!
Guo Jingyun and Zhou Hongyi also looked at their senior brother sitting in the first place in amazement. They had a preliminary understanding of Li Dongling's skills and vision, and it also gave them the feeling that they could still play like this and use routines so freely.
At this moment, the way Master Zhou looked at Li Dongling was no less than the way he looked at Rebus in his previous life, who was constantly using marketing methods on the Internet, whether selling mobile phones or new energy vehicles. The longing but unfulfilled eyes...
"If the Shenzhou U disk is willing to help the brother department, enter the legal group The team definitely doesn’t have to worry about funding issues!”
Guo Jingyun said with a smile that a 16M Shenzhou USB flash drive now sells for 60 US dollars, 480 RMB. If it can increase sales by 50,000 units, then The revenue is 24 million, which is divided into the Tianya Input Method team. The funding of one to two million is enough to fund the next upgrade.
“How far is the development of Tianya Forum now?” Li Dongling asked.
Compared with the input method, Li Dongling pays more attention to the Tianya Forum. Of course, with it, in addition to being able to fill in water, the most important thing is that Li Dongling certainly hopes that the Tianya Forum can become Dongling Hi-Tech's flagship store on the Internet. A flag!
In future generations, the forum may have declined with the emergence of various websites and mobile apps, but from now on, in the next ten years, or even more than ten years later, the forum will be in its heyday. On the domestic Internet, there are an astonishing number of users and influence.
Even, to a certain extent, the forum’s activity and traffic-draining ability are somewhat stronger and more influential than portal websites. At its peak, there were 100 million monthly active users. The number of users may be a bit exaggerated, but it is definitely higher than that of all types of peers.
Of course, Tanglin Hi-tech cannot stick to one forum, but as long as Tianya Forum is here, Tanglin Hi-tech can advance, attack, retreat or defend in the PC Internet era within ten years. The place where the cone stands.
Guo Jingyun looked at Zhou Hongyi, "The technical development of Tianya Forum is currently mainly carried out by Hongyi's technical team!"
Being able to leave the work of developing the forum to Leader Zhou obviously shows great trust in him and recognition of Leader Zhou's technical ability.
“Now we have reached the later stage, mainly in accordance with your requirements, Mr. Li, to develop the functions of the five major sections of Tianya Zatan, Tianya Entertainment, Tianya Sports, Tianya Literature, and Tianya Finance!
Now there are several Several sections have been developed and are being tested. If all are developed and tested, Tianya.com will probably be officially launched around the end of the year!"
Zhou Hongyi said to Li Dongling, hesitated, and said again, "Tianya Forum, if there are too many online functions, I am afraid that I will need to rent or purchase a server to maintain the website with so many functions!"
There is no such thing as "crossing the river by feeling the stones" now. Dongling Hi-Tech and Tianya Company , can be regarded as the first person to eat crabs on the Internet. Even his colleagues in Silicon Valley do not have these, and can only explore bit by bit on their own.
Li Dongling put forward some requirements for Tianya Forum, but Tianya Forum is completely different from the current BBS forum. Website interface design, layout, functional design, etc., all need to be explored by Master Zhou and others.
As for whether the forum will make money after it is opened, or how much it will lose, no one can be sure. Just like the BBS forums in various parts of the country now, they completely rely on the passion of the webmaster to use his own pocket to enter it. Fill in, I really can’t afford a BBS site if I don’t have any worth.
Tianya Forum is much larger than the various sites of Huiduo.com. If you add a server, the cost will be even higher!
“After the website is launched, buy a server as a backup!” Li Dongling said directly.
Unlike the input method, even if the Tianya Forum suffers a temporary loss, it is acceptable for Dongling High-tech. This is a fortress of Dongling High-tech in the Internet industry, and it must be defended. Everyone on Tianya.com could tell that Li Dongling valued the Tianya Forum and obviously did not care about the early gains and losses. Naturally, he would not mention whether there would be losses after the site was opened.
After talking about Tianya.com, Li Dongling glanced at everyone in the conference room, "The agency rights of Silicon Valley Internet company Yahoo are currently with the Zhixing Foundation!"
"If next year, Yahoo! If it can be successfully listed on the Nasdaq as expected, the Yahoo mainland website will also start to be established.
If nothing unexpected happens, Yahoo mainland company will be operated by Tianya Company. The president of Yahoo mainland, He will also be appointed by Tianya Company!”
Li Dongling once again released a shocking news. After hearing this, all the executives of Tianya Company showed looks of expectation on their faces.
If Yahoo is listed on the Nasdaq, it will be a listed company worth hundreds of millions of dollars. If you become the president of Yahoo Mainland, you will also become a big shot in the domestic technology industry!
“Mr. Li!”
When the meeting was about to end, a voice with a Lu provincial accent suddenly came out, and it was Wang Jiangmin who spoke.
Wang Jiangmin has a slim figure but a look of perseverance on his face. Wang Jiangmin got polio when he was a child and has some inconvenience in his legs. However, he likes mountain climbing and swimming and has a much stronger personality than ordinary people.
Among the programmers in the conference room, he was a person who entered the computer industry without any formal education. However, no one present dared to question his strength, especially in the field of computer security.
He is responsible for the development of the security program of Tianya Input Method and the security of Tianya Forum that is being developed.
After arriving in Zhongguancun, although Wang Jiangmin is with Tianya Company, his reputation has spread out to Zhongguancun. He does not yet have the title of the father of anti-virus software, but he is already known as the Zhongguancun computer virus expert. Appeared in Zhongguancun.
Wang Jiangmin has made several anti-virus software before, including KV100, but they are basically small-scale projects. Only companies that have heard of his reputation or companies in need buy some.
Coming to Zhongguancun, many companies encountered difficult computer virus problems, and they all came to Jianghu for help, and Wang Jiangmin could basically solve the trouble. In other words, domestic virus problems None of the computer viruses that came out were any match for Wang Jiangmin.
Li Dongling looked at Wang Jiangmin. Wang Jiangmin hesitated for a moment and then said, "Mr. Li, I want to withdraw from Dongling Hi-Tech and Tianya Company!"
As soon as these words came out, Zhou Zhijun moved his lips, but the expressions of Zhu Chongjun and Wu Xiaojun did not change. They were obviously informed.
"Donngling Hi-Tech and Tianya Company treat me well, and the salary offered is much higher than what I received at Lu Province Bearing Instrument Factory!"
Wang Jiangmin subconsciously He touched the pocket where he kept his cigarette, and then moved his hand away, with a hint of apology on his face. The treatment given to him by Tianya Company was indeed high enough. Guo Jingjingyun, for some unknown reason, had always had some problems with him. Leader Zhou respected him very much.
"But I am already 45 years old this year, and time is not forgiving. If I don't do something I want to do, I'm afraid I won't have much chance in this life!" Wang Jiangmin said to Li Dongling.
When Li Dongling heard this, he chuckled, looked around at the people in the conference room, and asked Wang Jiangmin, who was a consultant at Tianya.com, "Consultant Wang, what do you want to do?!"
"In the anti-virus software industry, I plan to establish Jiangmin Anti-Virus Software Company and treat this industry as a serious business!" Wang Jiangmin said without thinking, obviously having already thought about it.
Li Dongling nodded, was silent for a few seconds, and then raised his head, "Consultant Wang, if you are willing, Dongling Hi-Tech and Tianya Company can venture capital in your anti-virus software company!
Even if you leave, you are still considered to be from Tianya Company, and you must help each other. In the future, if the people of Tianya Company break up peacefully with Tianya Company and go out to start their own business,
As long as they do not compete with Tianya Company. If there is a need for jobs, Tianya Company will definitely help!”
Li Dongling’s words were also telling Zhou Zhijin, Zhu Chongjun, Wu Xiaojun, including Zhou Hongyi and others, as long as they don’t compete with Tianya Company for jobs after they leave. That is to set up their own business, and Tianya Company is also willing to invest in the company they establish.
Early technology companies, whether it was Kingsoft, Sohu or Alibaba, all had many big names. Sohu, for example, was known as the Whampoa Military Academy of the Internet, and many big names on the Internet came out.
