The Pioneer of the Rebirth Era

In the office of the general manager of Shanghai Ninetowns, Lin Wei can be said to be very busy during this time.

Winning CC directly can be said to have dropped a depth bomb in the domestic Internet industry. After all, there have been rumors that CC will package and sell domestic business to focus on overseas markets.

But no one thought that Ninetowns would suddenly break out, and it was 2.43 billion yuan, completing the acquisition with the highest transaction volume in the domestic Internet industry.

You must know that before that, everyone was still paying attention to what kind of satellite the Ninetowns, the groom, and Samsung's Weibo will release. As a result, the Weibo satellite here has not yet gone to the sky, but a depth bomb has arrived instead.

"Boss Lin, the data collection you want." The secretary knocked on the door and walked in, putting the folder in her hand on Lin Wei's desk.

Putting down the pen in her hand, Lin Wei opened the folder, glanced at the various information on it, and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Is Rising Sun Technology really not planning to launch any free YY activities for the time being?" Although the collected information is in her own hands, Lin Wei is still a little worried.

"There is no rumor about this at the moment, and I haven't heard about Sunrise Technology's plan in this regard. They only announced the promotion of corresponding benefits for members, and they didn't intend to free it." The secretary said.

Lin Wei nodded and breathed a sigh of relief.

To be honest, she was really afraid of a price war with Rising Sun Technology, because this battle would definitely not stop unless one side had more people.

This is undoubtedly a lot of pressure for her, but she has to take this step of giving huge benefits to attract users to return. Otherwise, CC has more than 1 million active users, and 90% of them are dead people who hang up, what can they do?

Only by activating the business of buying CC by users can they make a lot of money instead of losing money.

But even though it was imperative, she was still a little worried, worried that Rising Sun Technology would die. After all, the boss also has a boss temper.

But now it seems that the opponent is still calm, knowing that the end of the battle will not end well, so they simply ignored it.

In this way, Ninetowns will provide benefits for one month or two months to attract users who have left, and then cancel these benefits to restore normal revenue.

In fact, when making this decision, Ninetowns is a bit shameless, because Ninetowns must attract users to return, so these benefits must be released.

But on the other hand, the user activity of YY is already sufficient, and there is no need to provide these benefits to attract users.

In a real price war, Rising Sun Technology will give up this part of the income and at the same time spend other money to fill this hole. This calculation is much worse than Ninetowns.

Therefore, The9's strategy of attracting users to return with this benefit is a bit of a shameless behavior that barefoot people are not afraid of wearing shoes.

But now it seems that Rising Sun Technology is too lazy to pay attention to her scoundrel, so it avoided a big fight with money.

Lin Wei breathed a sigh of relief looking at the information collected about Rising Sun Technology.

Yang Dongxu, who was sitting in the office of the chairman of Rising Sun Technology, frowned when he saw the information Sun Yang handed over.

"What's the opinion of the game department?" What he held in his hand was a copy of the game information that was more valuable in the foreign game market, but it hadn't caught fire yet, or it hadn't been represented by a domestic company.

"Manager He Changhao and the others held a small meeting yesterday to study it. The leaders of several game groups are very optimistic about this EVE. They think this game is of high quality. If it can be done well, it can even be eaten for a lifetime." Sun Yang said .

"What's your opinion?" Yang Dongxu asked.

"It's too difficult." Sun Yang spread his hands helplessly, "This game must be a good game, and I agree with the heads of the various teams in the game department on this point.

But from a business point of view, it is too difficult for this game to become popular. It's not that the game isn't good enough, it's just too good.

It's so good that ordinary computer configurations can't play it at all, and it's so good that people with insufficient brains don't deserve to play it at all. "

Sun Yang smiled wryly.

Yang Dongxu also laughed, with a little helplessness in his smile.

Is EVE good?

Simply good blast!

It would not be an exaggeration to say that he is number one in interstellar games, or even number one in the next decade or so.

But its biggest problem is that it's too good, and this era can't keep up with it.

Just like what Sun Yang said, there is no way to play this game with the current domestic computer game preparation. Later generations often say that "eating chicken" has boosted the hardware configuration of a wave of computers.

But in fact, EVE has already achieved this step in this era, but it has not become popular, and its influence is not as great as eating chicken.

In addition to the extremely high computer configuration requirements, players who don't have a little brain and only know about PK fighting and killing are not worthy of playing it.

You have been playing this thing for a month or two, but in the end, even the most basic things that novices need to master are still confused, and you are directly dismissed by the game, how do you play?

Even though the game was later represented by Netease and made countless simplified versions, and finally became a mobile game, many players still couldn't understand it. The difficulty of this game can be imagined.

Therefore, compared with foreign enthusiasts, the more difficult the game is, the harder it is. In Huaxia's game environment, there are quite a few die-hard enthusiasts.

But this number is quite a result of comparison with foreign players. If compared with domestic game players, the number of these people is estimated to account for one-thousandth of the number of domestic game players.

So liver and brain can indeed reflect the high quality of a game, but it is not the mainstream of the game market.

Therefore, there is nothing wrong with EVE being an excellent game. This is not only agreed by Sun Yang and the people in the game department, but also by Yang Dongxu.

But from a business point of view, no matter how good a game that doesn't make money is, it's rubbish.

"I'll study this information first, and you leave the rest of the matter to other watchers. You take a YY technical team to the Google headquarters in the United States.

Use YY as a template to help Google assume a set of instant chat software. It is best to help Google complete the construction of this software before CC and MM log in to the world. "Yang Dongxu closed the folder in his hand and said.

"What does the big boss mean?" Sun Yang's eyes lit up suddenly.

In the past few days, he was also annoyed by Ninetowns' acquisition of CC, and Baidu's eyeing on MM.

And this time, CC and MM not only took the opportunity to make a lot of money in China, but the sky seems to be wider when they go abroad.

Seeing that the two failed competitors suddenly turned around so well, leaving a lot of trouble for Rising Sun Technology in China, and YY was the first to seize the market abroad, Sun Yang felt that feeling.

Previously, Yang Dongxu's eyes had always been on the domestic side, and Sun Yang thought that the big boss at home was a little out of reach for foreign matters, but he never thought that if the big boss didn't make a move, it would be a killer move.

This is Google, which released a wave of satellites last year, Google, which is brighter than Baidu satellites. And the acquisition of CC by Ninetowns is indeed amazing, but Google also won the YouTube for real money.

And at present, Baidu is only the number one search engine in China, while Google is the number one in the world, and it also has the world's number one YouTube site in its hands.

Such a giant is going to launch an instant chat software, and it is quietly cooperating with Rising Sun Technology. This is so exciting, so excited, Sun Yang began to take a deep breath.

At the same time, many question marks popped up in his head.

When did the big boss talk to Google about this matter, why didn't there be any news before? Of course, he only thought about these questions in his heart and didn't ask them.

"Don't be so excited, this is just a preliminary cooperation, and there will be more cooperation in the future, it depends on how the team you lead this time can transform YY into what it is.

Your task this time can be said to be very heavy. First of all, the problem you have to solve is not just how YY completes the structure of instant chat software based on Google.

You also need to do a good job of in-depth localization, the structure of the chat window, the habits and differences of domestic and foreign users of some YY functions, as well as various language and editing issues. You have to do your best, the best. It's best not to give your opponent any chance. "

Yang Dongxu's face became serious.

Sun Yang subconsciously straightened his body and stood up, "Understood!"

Looking at Sun Yang who walked out of the office, Yang Dongxu's eyes began to lose focus and fell into deep thought.

This cooperation is very important to him, because it is his first bright springboard to the international market.

When Sun Yang brought the technical team over to lay the structure of the instant chat software, it was confirmed that it could become a blockbuster.

He will personally fly to the United States to join hands with Google's senior executives to hold a signing ceremony that will shock the world.

It can't just be that other competitors are launching satellites and dropping bombs, and I have to make a movement that can be called a nuclear explosion on my side to show my status as the boss, right?

The result of the current discussion with Brother Xiaojie and the Kennedy family is that Google will take 11% of the shares and 3.89 billion US dollars in cash to take over 75% of YY's controlling stake in the international market.

Of course, this is just a cooperation document that will be signed and announced to the outside world at that time. In fact, Yang Dongxu will hold 70% of the controlling stake in YY's overseas market, and Jack, the Kennedy family, and the founder of Google will each hold 10%.

The 11% of the shares belonged to Yang Dongxu in the first place, so this is not considered a bargaining chip. The real deal is 3.89 billion. Jack Jr., the Kennedy family and the founder of Google jointly funded the purchase of 30% of the shares in the foreign market of YY.

The sale price of YY seems to be extremely high now, but it is actually a bit of a loss. After all, the future of YY is limitless.

However, with YY, Google will definitely take off like a tiger with wings added. He is the major shareholder of Google, and he will also make money with Google, so this price is barely acceptable.

As for the Kennedy family, Little Jack and the founder of Google.

Although they feel that this amount of money is a bit too much, they can think of the crazy growth of Google stock after YY helped Google take off. The price doesn't feel that high anymore.

As long as YY completes its overseas instant messaging software platform, it will stand in front of the world on the shoulders of the giant Google.

The money that the three parties have given out now is at most two daily limit issues. This business is too cost-effective.
