Chapter 471 Thunder on the ground
Ren Yuefeng asked in surprise, "Internet cafe?"
Now Internet cafes have not yet fully emerged in China, only a few have opened in Yanjing and Shanghai. The first reason why several companies have not taken off on a large scale is of course that the Internet fee is too expensive. The average person cannot afford the Internet fee of more than ten yuan an hour.
Another reason is that there are too few games to play. Before the rise of online games, there are only a few computer games that can be played now. Naturally, no one will spend so much money to hang out in Internet cafes every day. inside.
“In at least a few years, computers will be a large household appliance for many families. After at least ten years, when the price of computers drops, they will be popular in thousands of households, and even in towns and cities. In the countryside.
During this time, Internet cafes will become the only way for many people to access the Internet, and may even be the largest computer purchase, game promotion and consumer market in China! "
Li Dongling said to Ren Yuefeng, "The benefits brought by Internet cafes are actually only secondary. If a large-scale Internet cafe group can be built, it can bring a certain amount of revenue to Tianya.com and make up for the losses in the Internet business. , in addition, it can also become the Internet promotion platform of Tianya Company! ”
There is no doubt that the huge profits of Internet cafes can make people in the country rise to the cause. Internet cafes are opened even in remote rural areas. If they don’t make money, it is estimated that no one will do it.
The Internet is also very expensive. The revenue generated by Internet cafes can cover part of Tianya Company's losses.
In addition, in the early days of the Internet, that is, in the next ten years, Internet cafes were also the most important Internet software and products. In the game promotion market, if you want to promote any software or game, tens of millions of computers in Internet cafes have been occupied, and the market will be obtained naturally. It is simple, crude and direct and costs less...
Putting aside stand-alone games such as Red Alert War and Meteor Butterfly Sword, online games such as Stone Age, Journey, Legend, World of Warcraft, Dungeon and Fighter, CF, and League of Legends were the first to seize the Internet cafe market and then push them to home computers. Yes, I don’t know which game will occupy the Internet cafe market and whether it can continue to be popular, but it is no problem to make a fortune.
“Internet cafes, in addition to providing revenue and an Internet promotion platform for Tianya Company, the most important thing in establishing an Internet cafe is to purchase computers.
The Internet cafe market can provide Tanglin High-tech with The computer business provides a large number of orders and occupies this market. There is no need to worry about computer orders in the early stage of Dongling Hi-tech! "
Li Dongling's meaning is very clear. If there is no order, then create an order, even if it is left-handed! On the right hand, as long as Internet cafes can rise, the huge computer orders brought by Internet cafes will solve a considerable part of the computer orders for Tanglin Hi-Tech.
The order of tens of millions of units is enough for Donglin Hi-tech's computer production line to be fully powered. Dongxin Semiconductor's computer chips can also be sold. Only with sales and revenue can we make money. Continuously improve technology.
If Internet cafes can really become popular, then Ren Yuefeng feels that this strategy of killing two birds with one stone is indeed useful. "If Internet cafes can really become popular in China, it will indeed be an opportunity, and it can avoid companies like Lianxiang and others." Price war! ”
“Not only in China!”
“If it is operated properly, Internet cafes can open to Hong Kong City, Bangzi, Malaysia, Siam, Cochin, and even Laomaozi, America, Old Europe and other places!
If the Internet cafe alliance formed by Tianya Company can enter these areas, it can also become a promotion platform, and Tanglin Hi-Tech's computers can also enter these markets with the help of Internet cafes. ”< br>
Don’t doubt the popularity of Internet cafes. Even in America, the world’s largest Internet market with a high number of home computers, there are Internet cafes.
How can I say that Internet cafes are like the difference between studying in a dormitory and studying in a library? The atmosphere is very important...
Of course, Internet cafes are not static. They have changed from only providing computer games to providing computer games. Game equipment such as VR and AR can also be transformed into an e-sports hotel, providing meals, drinks, coffee, hotel rooms, etc. It's not a shabby job to make money.
Of course, if you have a bad heart, you can also use this method to collect franchise fees, or even cultivate some Internet cafes and game agents in Cochin, Siam and other places, and then package and list them to make money, I guess There is no problem in cutting a few leeks and making a sharp circle. It just depends on whether you want to play with it or not.
VNG, an Internet giant company in Jiaozhi, started out by opening an Internet cafe. At the earliest, it was an agent for Jinshan’s Swordsman Love, directly occupying 80% of the game market in Jiaozhi. From then on, it skyrocketed, and then it was copied. It’s not a copycat, it’s not a copycat. It’s a copy of QQ and a Jiaozhi version of the duck social networking site. The page and functions are exactly the same as QQ, but the icon has changed from a penguin to a duck.
Then VNG crossed the river like a penguin and launched the WeChat Jiaozhi version of Zalo, with over 100 million registered users. You must know that the entire Jiaozhi only has 98 million people. It is conceivable that this social product is basically popular in Southeast Asia. Above is the fire coming out of the circle.
From games to social networking, to music, input methods, etc., VNG has copied Penguin one to one and has become the largest Internet giant in Cochin. In ten years, its valuation has exceeded three billion US dollars.
Of course, if VNG dared to do something so blatant, it must have given 48% of its shares to Penguin. Otherwise, it would have been beaten long ago.
If Tianya Company cultivates some companies like VNG overseas, then the leeks will probably be harvested one after another.
......
After Wang Yongyu left Pingyang and returned to Yanjing, it is unknown how he negotiated with Lian Xiang, but the offensive on the Shenzhou Storage side continued unabated. Under the temptation of the SD memory card project, IBM, Toshiba, Philips, and Bienwei also continued to put pressure on Lianxiang.
Unfavorable news for Lianxiang continues to spread from overseas. In Southeast Asia, Lianxiang's machines have either been banned or sued in places such as Hong Kong City, Siam, Cochin, and Malaysia. The overseas market has almost completely collapsed. . Because Lianxiang is listed in Hong Kong City, the court in Hong Kong City has jurisdiction over Lianxiang Acer in Hong Kong City. Although the most important result of the lawsuit in Hong Kong City has not been announced yet, various parties in Hong Kong City have The news that the media has found out is very unfavorable to Lianxiang Gangcheng Company, and Lianxiang Gangcheng Company has a high probability of being judged to lose.
Affected by public opinion, the stock price of Hong Kong City Lianxiang Company has almost reached the level of a penny stock. The trading volume is very sluggish. There are only sellers but no buyers, and it is almost at the point of liquidation and delisting. .
In China, Lian Xiang’s life was also very uncomfortable. The Pingyang Court held a hearing, and the result was naturally no surprise. All the demands of Shenzhou Storage were supported, and only one judgment was missing.
I don’t know how it works in other places, but in the Hanxi computer market, Lianxiang’s brand and reputation are completely rotten. It can’t be sold here at all. It is replaced by Founder, Great Wall and other local Computer brands have taken over the market.
But even in markets outside Hanxi Province, Lianxiang's life is not easy. According to statistics compiled by the media, Lianxiang's sales have begun to decline precipitously since the lawsuit began.
New products that were supposed to be released long ago were also postponed continuously, and then it was reported that due to the shortage of key components, Lianxiang’s production capacity in the first quarter was reduced by at least 20%!
The whole Lian Xiang gave the impression to the outside world that it was precarious, even a bit shaky. Even though Boss Liu was still tough when facing the media, the decline was felt by everyone.
"Mr. Liu, there is another call from Mr. Wang, let us give you a reply!"
Guo Wei walked into Boss Liu's office with a light step. Boss Liu covered his forehead with a A piece of towel, the changes during this period also tormented him a lot.
However, Boss Liu does not dare to be hospitalized for recuperation at this time. At this critical moment, news has spread. There are voices of dissatisfaction with him from the Chinese Academy of Sciences. If he enters the hospital at this time, will his position as president be preserved? It's hard to say whether he can live in it or not. After working so hard until now, he would never dare to hand over his power to anyone else.
"Li's surname is too much!"
Throwing the towel on his forehead to the ground, Boss Liu said angrily, "Publicly apologize in the newspaper, I will still have it in the future What kind of face, in front of the world, 70 million yuan in compensation, how many brothers worked overtime and worked hard day and night to earn it, was taken away like this, I am not willing to accept it!"
Looking at Liu who was heartbroken! Boss, Guo Wei stood aside and didn't dare to speak. Although he didn't know, what did these tens of millions have to do with the technicians in the laboratory and the people on the production line? Even if they didn't pay compensation, they could be given to these people. superior?
"Then...should we reject Wang Si?" Guo Wei asked cautiously.
"No!"
"I have been frustrated all my life until today, and no one in the world is looking at the setting sun." Boss Liu sighed, "How can the long sky be inferior to me? Who can know my painstaking efforts?!"
"If you keep the green hills, you won't have to worry about running out of firewood. I, Old Liu, have written down what happened today. One day, I will pay it back a hundred times to Dongling Hi-Tech!"
After speaking sternly, Boss Liu then Xiang Guowei said, "Go and tell Wang Si that Lian Xiang agreed to these conditions and asked Dongling Hi-Tech to withdraw the lawsuit!
In addition, go and meet with the mainland presidents of Intel, Sharp, and Samsung. I Meet them in person!”
…
“Lianxiang just issued an announcement announcing that it would formally issue an apology statement to Hanxi Shenzhou Storage Company, admitting that it had infringed on several U disk patents of Shenzhou Storage.
It also announced that it would cancel U The disk business and personnel will no longer be involved in the storage business, and Shenzhou Storage will be compensated accordingly.
This also marks the official conclusion of the first domestic patent lawsuit. The director of the Patent Office declared that this It is a landmark event in my country's patent industry..."
Meng Liang, a reporter from the Central Media Financial Channel who was sorting and editing the interview video with Li Dongling, suddenly saw a report from the Central Media Comprehensive Channel.
The report on the TV station made Meng Liang and the team members of the economic channel stunned. Lian Xiang actually admitted defeat, and recognized it simply and publicly, apologized and compensated, and never got involved in the storage business again, which was equivalent to accepting it completely. The conditions for Shenzhou storage!
“Quickly, the video interview with Li Dongling will be compiled today and will be shown on the station tonight!”
The supervisor of the Central Media Economic Channel ran in and shouted to Meng Liang, Apparently I just received the news.
At this moment, various domestic media have also begun to reprint the central media report. Domestic technology industry companies are in an uproar, and they have all seen this explosive news.
The so-called leader in domestic computers actually lost, and they lost so miserably, which gave them a new understanding of the strength of Donglin Hi-Tech!
