Chapter 490 Bait
We are still in the "ancient" period of the Internet. Technically, it is far from as convenient and perfect as in later generations. Whatever you want to do, you must first see whether there is corresponding supporting technology.
If you want to listen to songs on your computer, you also need software that supports song playback. The same is true for Ximalaya Internet Radio. You need to create podcast content first and store it on the server, and then the user can open Ximalaya on the computer. Software, but how to release it on the computer was a problem before!
In fact, what Ximalaya Silicon Valley Office mainly does is to solve the troubles users encounter when using Ximalaya software to play audio on their computers.
However, the AMPMP3 digital playback engine program allows users to click and listen to the content played by Himalayan Radio on their computers.
It is no exaggeration to say that Justin is a genius. He has helped Himalaya Radio and even countless Internet companies and users solve the problem of using software programs to listen to songs on computers!
Justin, who Lu Kui said, is obviously not very old, but he has an unruly and unruly personality. At first glance, he is a person with the attribute of "thorny head". Even if people from the headquarters arrive, Justin Ding's eyes were also fixed on the computer in front of him.
Lu Kui obviously knew Justin's character and was afraid that people from the headquarters would be dissatisfied with Justin, so he told him in advance that Justin was a genius in program development and his role in Himalayan Radio.
When Li Dongling saw Justin, he just smiled casually. Geniuses all have personalities. Being withdrawn and unruly are the labels attached to many geniuses.
I want to ask, is there a person who is both a technical genius and a very high emotional intelligence? Of course there is, there is a person like America, called Bill Gates, and there is also a person in China. The same character, his name is Lei Jun...
He is technically a genius, his emotional intelligence is top-notch, he has no obvious flaws in his character, and he is even a perseverant person. To be honest, it would be strange for such a person to be unable to make a name for himself!
As for the Justin in front of him, Li Dongling is certainly not surprised that he has a genius temperament. Even Li Dongling wishes that Dongling Hi-Tech would have more such geniuses!
Just like this AMPMP3 digital playback engine program, this technology alone is worth how much money it is. It is no exaggeration to say that all companies involved in audio playback in the future will need to use this technology. Whether it is a music website, video website, or MP3 player, you need to pay patent fees to Himalayan Radio!
“Now the player, equalizer, and playlist of Himalayan Internet Radio have been developed!”
Lu Kui opened the Himalayan Radio interface and demonstrated to Li Dongling and Yao Luoying that this set The interface was made according to the requirements sent by Feiyan Technology, and it is quite simple.
Unlike websites such as Netscape and Yahoo, which require operations, the interface of Himalaya Radio is designed to be operated by fools. As long as you open the page and click on it with your mouse, you can play the content.
Lu Kui clicked on a piece of music used for testing by Himalayan Radio. The sound quality was not very good to be honest. It was certainly not comparable to Sony CD, but after buffering for a while, it was finally played!
It doesn’t matter how good the sound quality is, whether the buffering speed is slow or not, as long as Himalayan Radio can play the content, that’s enough!
“Thank you for your hard work!”
Li Dongling patted Lu Kui on the shoulder and said to him. Lu Kui was also a Chinese who came to America in the early years. He worked at Wangan Computer and Cisco I have worked for many companies.
Himalaya Radio hired Lu Kui to manage the Himalaya Silicon Valley office. Lu Kui is currently doing a pretty good job, and he has basically completed everything required by the headquarters.
Of course, joining Himalayan Radio is also an opportunity for Lu Kui. His career in companies such as Cisco has reached its ceiling and he cannot be promoted at all.
Joining Himalaya Radio will allow Lu Kui to take a key step in his career and become a manager. If Himalayan Radio can achieve results, his resume will be very eye-catching, and his salary will be much higher than before. Much stronger.
After entering the conference room in the office, Li Dongling didn’t say anything else and said directly to Lu Kui, “When the first batch of Himalayan Radio creators are recruited, after recording the program, you must put these in as soon as possible. Program, put it on Himalaya Radio!”
“I understand!”
Lu Kui hurriedly said that even if he didn't know that Feiyan Technology wanted to use Himalayan Radio to complete the feat of going public, he could see the importance Li Dongling attached to Himalaya Radio and would not dare to lose the chain at this time.
Li Dongling then turned his attention to Zhou Hualiang, "Now there is too little content in Himalaya, and it is impossible to purchase songs and publish books on a large scale in America.
For Himalaya Radio, you can Seek cooperation with other open radio stations and let them settle in Himalaya Radio. We can provide these radio stations with an exclusive entry fee!”
Himalaya Radio can enter music websites and launch music platforms such as iTunes and Spofify in the future! business, but it will take a few years, at least when pirated music becomes rampant and causes heavy losses to several major record companies, then those record giants will lower their heads and be willing to become music suppliers.
When it is impossible to obtain a large amount of music copyrights from America, in addition to self-made content, if you want to add content to the Himalayan America website, you can only obtain content from America Open Radio.
What is an open radio station? To put it bluntly, it is an outdoor radio station that does not charge money and plays for free. There are so many radio stations in America. In addition to a few large radio stations that cover the entire America, there are countless small radio stations, among which the largest They are music stations from various states and localities.
Some of these radio stations are more formal and are owned by local TV stations, while others are the kind that put an antenna on the roof, build a set of radio equipment that someone knows how to use, and start blaming them on the radio. Fang Qiu got up. These music radio stations actually serve as channels for promoting records. They are the same channels as TV stations, newspapers, and magazines, but the quality and influence vary.
In addition to music radio stations, there are also different radio stations such as sports, current affairs, talk shows, etc., which are basically free of charge and their influence is limited to the local area.
When the Himalayan website is unable to obtain large-scale recording and book publishing copyrights, cooperation with these open radio stations is also a stopgap measure. It is hard to say how effective it will be, but at least it will not let America’s The Himalayas looked empty.
"I'm afraid these open radio stations will not be so easy to talk to. It will not be so easy to get them to enter the Himalayan website!"
Zhou Hualiang frowned and said, why do so many wild small radio stations exist? Generally speaking, it is a true hobby. If you like this industry, most of them go there for the US dollars.
It would be no problem to invite several open radio stations to settle in Himalayan Radio. One radio station would cost hundreds of thousands of dollars, and even a somewhat famous radio station could handle it by paying up to tens of thousands of dollars for exclusive Internet entry fees.
But it’s not that easy to invite everyone there. There are so many radio stations in America. I don’t know how much money it will cost to invite them all!
In the meantime, if we encounter a lot of radio stations with big mouths, just like demolition houses, we don’t know how much blood will be shed!
Li Dongling glanced at Zhou Hualiang, "Who said that we need to spend all the money at once to invite these open radio stations to enter the Himalayan website?"
Hearing this, Zhou Hualiang looked at Li Dongling doubtfully, not knowing what Li Dongling was doing. What's the meaning.
"First recruit a group of open radio stations, give these radio stations an exclusive entry fee in the early stage, select a few radio stations with potential, and focus on supporting them so that they can become leaders among open radio stations and earn profits !
As long as these radio stations on the Ximalaya website have developed and made money, are you afraid that there will be no other open radio stations to cooperate with Ximalaya?" Li Dongling said lightly.
After hearing this, Zhou Hualiang couldn't help but widen his eyes, and then couldn't help but slap his head. He knew that he had fallen into a fixed mindset.
Li Dongling's simple and unpretentious trick is to use people's envy. It is just like buying a lottery ticket. As long as five million is offered, even if they know that it is chance, they will never win in this life, but there are still countless people who do not remember it. A loser buys lottery tickets every day just for the day when he can make a comeback.
Similarly, as long as one of the open and wild small radio stations that have settled in the Himalayas can make a splash, other radio stations will come over and beg Himalayas for cooperation without even asking the Himalayas website. More and more radio stations will come and even settle in All costs are saved.
“I’m going to send someone right now to contact the open radio station in America!” Zhou Hualiang stood up and hurried out.
......
The arrival of Li Dongling and Yao Luoying, with the supervision of big donors, made the entire Himalayan Silicon Valley office busy.
The next day, when Soxin founders Steve Kihir and Li Yanhong arrived, they saw a busy scene in the office.
When he was introduced to the reception room, Steve Kircher also saw two other figures. He was not familiar with David Burnett, the founder of the GeoCities website, but he was familiar with David Burnett, who was also a search company. Gruner, the founder of ASK, knew him.
When Steve Kihir saw Gruner, his heart sank. They were both from a search company. Gruner came here today, which had to make him suspicious. Did Li Dongling not want to It already supports information search, but is going to support its rival ASK.
Peers are enemies. Even if the search industry is not popular with investors, after Steve Kircher and Gruner met, they just nodded to each other and didn't say a word at all.
Gruner and David Burnett discussed in a low voice the latest rumors in Silicon Valley, "I heard that Yahoo rejected America Online's offer!"
