Chapter 366: Internet West Lake Discussion Sword (Ask for Subscription)
"TT was done by the original founding team of Penguin?"
In the office, Chen Yu called Li Nan and Zhang Jianming over?
"Yes. ”
Li Nan nodded.
"Why didn't you find it before?"
"The previous company registration was not the original Penguin team, but another unfamiliar name, and they recently changed the corporate name and re-introduced the Penguin company name. ”
"Well, I'll take a look first. ”
Chen Yu downloaded TT on his computer.
This TT has been heard by Chen Yu before, and it is a newly established voice chat tool.
In fact, there are some mold anti-YY.
However, at that time, the company considered that the domestic broadband speed was not particularly fast, and it did not involve much in the voice business. Therefore, Li Nan's side only launched the voice function, but it was not the main focus.
"Why are there so many people?"
casually watched a few channels online, and there were thousands of people, Chen Yu was a little surprised.
"TT acquired [e-phone] some time ago. ”
"E talk, wasn't it investigated?"
E-talk can be said to be a rookie that emerged in 2003.
They mainly do voice and video business.
In half a year, eCall reached 3 million registered people, and 300,000 were online at the same time.
In itself, normally speaking, it is impossible for e-phone to develop so quickly all at once.
But just like the e-talk, it's like opening a hanging.
However, Chen Yu didn't dare to learn from this open-hanging.
The reason why E-phone has developed so fast is completely in the name of rubbing the edge of the eighteen ban business.
In the end, an inventory came from above, and the e-call was also taken down
However, although e-call has been taken, potential users exist.
TT spent a sum of money to acquire the database of e-call, and the original users of e-call were directed to TT Voice.
"Does TT also play eighteen forbidden rubbing edges?"
Chen Yu took a look and found that the entire chat room was relatively clear, and there was nothing to rub the edges.
"They are modeled against our business, focusing on games + entertainment. ”
Li Nan said.
"Ma Huateng is a talent. ”
Chen Yu sighed.
He also thought that after the penguin failed, Ma Huateng and himself might never have anything to do with each other.
Unexpectedly, Ma Huateng made a comeback in another way.
Moreover, it looks menacing.
"They can't just do voice and video business, what they're going to get into is instant messaging. ”
In 2003, although broadband speeds were not as fast as in later generations, they were able to support voice and video services.
Of course, although it is supported, not all regions support it.
First- and second-tier cities and coastal areas have relatively fast broadband speeds and more users.
Fourth- and fifth-tier cities have average broadband speeds and fewer users.
Overall, there are still not a lot of users.
However, even if it is not a lot, there will be more and more users as time progresses.
"Focus on our voice and video business. ”
Chen Yu had a familiar feeling.
When they came out of YY, they also wanted to use group chat to enter the instant messaging market.
The current Ma Huateng actually used the method he used before.
Hehe, do you still want to use the tricks I used to defeat me?
"Launched a reward model and signed contracts with major chat rooms. ”
Almost immediately, Chen Yu thought of a strategy to deal with it.
In addition, a new YY voice and video version was launched. ”
YY used to do group chats, but after defeating Penguin, he officially focused entirely on instant messaging.
Therefore, in the voice and video section, YY did not go deeper.
This is what Chen Yu meant.
It's not that Huanyu Technology doesn't have the strength to go deeper, but that there will be conflicts between instant messaging and voice group chats.
Voice group chats are just entertainment products, and he is not the main one.
Therefore, although Ma Huateng is coming back with the skin of e-talk, Chen Yu is not particularly anxious.
Let's not talk about whether Ma Huateng can eat the voice and video market.
Even if he can eat it, he is only YY in his previous life at most.
Of course, although Chen Yu was not particularly anxious, Chen Yu also didn't want to see Ma Huateng in any way that threatened him.
"Alibaba's Taobao, Brother Jian, what do you think?"
After processing YY, Chen Yu turned to Taobao again.
In the past, Huanyu Technology actually had an e-commerce business, but it had been busy with games and instant messaging before, and the e-commerce business was just hanging there, and there was no focus on development. But now, it's time for e-commerce to enter.
Alibaba recently raised $50 million to launch a new C2C business, Taobao. Relying on their previous B2B business, and Taobao also launched a completely free model, many individual merchants went to Taobao at once, and the transaction volume increased rapidly. ”
"It's free...... It is estimated that the cost will be recovered elsewhere in the future. ”
Taobao is, of course, free.
You can open a store for free, you can sell things for free.
However, this is only to attract sellers.
When the Taobao platform becomes bigger and stronger, then it will start to gather wool.
"That's what we think too, but free is a good model. Mr. Chen, I think we should make efforts in the e-commerce market. ”
"Indeed it should. ”
Chen Yu nodded.
Although Taobao was established first, it also launched its C2C business first.
But that's okay.
It will take a long time for e-commerce to go from beginning to maturity.
"Brother Jian, immediately set up an e-commerce department and launched a new C2C business platform. Like Taobao, we also offer a free model. In addition, set up an e-commerce marketing team to get more sellers to join our platform. ”
E-commerce in 2003 was still in its early stages.
For the initial e-commerce, the first step is to pull more sellers.
E-commerce products can only be diverse if there are more and more sellers.
Furthermore, with the emergence of diversified products, ordinary users are interested in the online shopping experience.
......
After giving instructions to Zhang Jianming and Li Nan, Chen Yu did not stop, and called Wang Chang over again.
"Wang Chang, is there a suitable candidate for the portal?"
YY is Li Nan in charge, however, Li Nan has some research on instant messaging, but he is a layman for the operation of portal websites. When Ma Huateng and Mr. Ma got together to launch a new business, Chen Yu realized the cruelty of the market.
If you're not careful, your competitors can get ahead of him.
It's like a voice video business vs. an e-commerce business.
Under the influence of Chen Yu's butterfly, 2003 and 2003 in his previous life have slowly begun to change.
Although the portal business is not in a hurry, he does not want to wait, he must make his portal as big as possible.
"Chen Tong, editor-in-chief of Xinlang, is very experienced in content construction. ”
"Can you dig it?"
"I'll give it a try. ”
"Don't let you go, let the headhunter communicate with him quietly, they are more professional than us in poaching people. ”
Although the YY portal has just been launched recently, it has not made any major moves.
At the same time, it cannot compete with Xinlang in terms of professionalism and IP flow for the time being.
Even, it can't be compared with NetEase Sohu.
But after all, with YY, an instant messaging artifact, any portal will regard Universal Technology as a competitor.
If Wang Chang goes in person, the probability of success is not great.
"Mr. Chen, Jack Ma, chairman of Alibaba, invites you to participate in the Internet West Lake Debate. ”
After flipping through the arrangement, the assistant Xia Zhu handed the fax invitation he had just received to Chen Yu.
"Oh, who's in attendance?"
In addition to you, Ma Yun also invited Ma Huateng, Cao Guowei, chairman of Xinlang, Ding Lei, president of NetEase, and Zhang Chaoyang, founder of Sohu...... In addition, Microsoft's Bill was also invited. By the way, there is also Mr. Jin Yong. ”
"It looks like they're all coming against me. ”
Chen Yu smiled: "Reply to Ma Yun, thank you for the invitation, you must participate." ”
