Chapter 172: The Future of Portals
Everyone present fell into deep thought after Yang Dongxu's words fell, thinking about what he meant by this.
Originally, Lin Wei's first reaction was that Yang Dongxu was flaunting himself and using this method to please the above. But she quickly dismissed the speculation.
After all, pleasing the above is to obtain greater benefits, but driving away players is undoubtedly putting the cart before the horse. After all, no matter how much the above supports you, you can't order netizens to play your game, right?
What's more, there are many different voices on the game industry, and there is still a debate about it, and there is no clear statement. How is it possible to openly support and encourage a game company?
Seeing that Yang Dongxu seemed to be really ready to do this instead of putting a smoke bomb, she had to ponder whether there was something in this that she didn't see. After all, Yang Dongxu doesn't seem to have a hot brain, and he is not confused to the point of knowing his own foundation.
"It's a good idea to limit the amount of time minors spend playing. While Lin Wei was still pondering, Boss Zhang said, "But will this affect the number of gamers?"
It's not a straightforward question, but it's undoubtedly something everyone wants to know.
"The impact is definitely there, but based on the current average age of Internet users in the country, the impact is not very large. And the current game market is called a hundred flowers blooming when it sounds good, and it means a little quick success when it is ugly.
There are even some bad tendencies within the game, so you can take the initiative to rectify it. Wait for the above to be hammered and then rectified, then it will not be an ordinary trouble. Yang Dongxu said with a smile.
It looks very relaxed, and it seems that I really don't care about the loss of some players.
Really don't care?
I definitely care a little about it, after all, losing players equals losing money. As a businessman, he is not a, so he naturally has to think about how to make more money.
But this step must be taken, and it is better to leave a good impression on it than to walk early if you go late. And it can consolidate the position of Glorious Sun Technology in the industry, as well as its reputation in the society.
Of course, what is more important is that if he does this, then after this measure causes players to lose, it will definitely make other game companies profitable. Even if you overturn Rising Sun Technology, you may not be the boss yourself.
But Yang Dongxu knew that although he made this anti-addiction, as long as it was implemented. It must be stipulated that all game companies must do this, which can be regarded as a kind of appeasement to the increasingly acute contradictions in online games in society.
Therefore, everyone will follow the loss, and the position of the boss of Rising Sun Technology will still be stable. It's still cost-effective to lose some money and get such a good proof image.
As for whether these peers from other game companies will scold his mother, that's not a question for him to consider. Peers are enemies, he didn't sell them, kill these peers, and he is already very kind.
"Then I don't know what Boss Yang thinks of the portal?" Boss Zhang saw the meaningful smile on the corner of Yang Dongxu's mouth and did not ask any further, but transferred to the industry he did.
Although Yang Dongxu is a professional gamer, he has a 361 browser company in his hand. For free browsers, Boss Zhang actually thought about it before.
After all, as one of the important diversion ports of the portal, if you can win a browser with a relatively high market share, it is undoubtedly a thing like a tiger.
It's a pity that she is more thoughtful here, 361 came out, and aggressively ate 123 directly. Then, in the stunned eyes of everyone in the industry, it took less than a year to form a full coverage of computers across the country.
Now almost 95% of computer users, the browser loaded is 361, and the remaining 5% is still part of the computer system with its own Internet browser, which directly blocks the growth space of other browsers.
"With the rapid development of society, netizens have higher and higher requirements for the content of the portal, so the portal should be transformed and upgraded as soon as possible. Yang Dongxu said.
Boss Zhang raised his eyebrows, 'transformation and upgrading' is a common topic. At present, everyone feels that the portal seems to have reached its peak, and no one knows how many years it will be able to remain at the peak, and no one knows when it will decline.
Everyone knows that you have to change your portal, otherwise the best results are now, and even the risk of declining performance over time will increase geometrically.
But how to upgrade is undoubtedly something that everyone is confused about. To be honest, the development of domestic portals is so fast, and there is a direct relationship with American portals.
Now the proud people who are working hard in the Internet are basically returnees, and the products they come up with are almost all clones of foreign Internet products.
There was once such a sentence in the venture capital circle: "Don't tell me how awesome your product is, how advanced it is, and what precedent it has created in China, just say which foreign software your product is imitating, I will consider the prospects." ”
This sentence may be exaggerated, but it is definitely very suitable for the domestic Internet industry.
Therefore, at present, these domestic portals, when those technologies and routines are almost exactly the same as foreign portals, are all drinking the boss shoulder to shoulder, and the boss is not moving forward, and they are very confused about where they should go.
Games are a direction they want to try to transform, but Zhang Chaoyang feels that this is not the right direction for the portal. But where the right direction is, he doesn't have a clue yet.
"The core of the portal's profitability is traffic, and the source of traffic is the attractiveness of the portal's content to netizens. Older generations used to listen to the radio, and later there were newspapers and television.
The portal was one of the first web pages of news. After several years of development, netizens actually feel a little tired of the news on the portal. Something new is needed to stimulate it, for example, text plus picture news to video news is a good breakthrough point. Yang Dongxu didn't seem to have any intention of hiding his secrets, so he opened his mouth without waiting for Boss Zhang to continue asking.
"Technology is a big problem. Boss Zhang frowned.
The transition to video journalism is not a new proposition either. But just because the portal hasn't done this yet, the technical shackles are a big reason.
After all, the news screen is not like a movie, you download it and put it there, and someone can click on it and watch it. He needs to be updated in real time, otherwise how can it be called news?
And update the new news, the old news you can't delete yet, you have to find a place to continue to store it, because this is one of the resources that belong to the website.
In a city that is now the Internet speed is actually a big problem, a larger city is fine, a smaller city Internet café you download a movie, the whole Internet café with the card. A few minutes of news buffering for more than half an hour can't be finished, how to attract those netizens to browse?
Facing Boss Zhang's concerns, Yang Dongxu did not speak, but smiled and looked at Qiu Bosong next to him.
"Technology is a problem, but it's not an unsolvable problem. Qiu Bosong said.
"Oh?" Boss Zhang looked at Qiu Bosong, and then at Yang Dongxu, thinking about a little meaning.
I am interested in the games of Rising Sun Technology, and the other party seems to be interested in his portal.
"There are two solutions to solve this problem, one is to upgrade the website's server so that the server can carry more data and faster. The other is that the country has once again accelerated the speed of broadband. The latter doesn't know when it will be finished, but the former has eyebrows. Qiu Bosong blinked slightly mysteriously.
Needless to say, the broadband speed is increased, and there is no card to watch anything when the network speed goes up, and video news is naturally no problem. Upgrading the server is a bit of a trick.
It is to let the server take care of all the big data, just like a movie downloaded from the computer, you can click on it and watch it. Instead of waiting for a snail's speed to buffer, the server requirements aren't ordinary.
After all, the daily number of views of a portal is millions at every turn, plus comments, real-time updates, previous data backup, etc., according to Boss Zhang, it seems that there is no server in the world that can carry these data well. Even those foreign portals are often stuck from time to time.
So when he heard Qiu Bosong say that there are now more powerful servers coming out, Zhang Chaoyang didn't believe it at first. Because he has been paying attention to this matter, there is no news in the world, let alone in China.
But the next moment, he suddenly thought of something: "You mean that the new server technology on the side of Dongxu Technology has made progress?"
The current Dongxu Technology is a bit like the Huawei of later generations, obviously a giant but low-key is not like it. But it is very famous in the circle, not because of the previous chip incident, but because of the real products and technologies.
For example, in terms of servers, Dongxu Technology is the top existence all over the world. Almost all technology companies that use servers in China use almost all of Dongxu Technology's products.
And it is said that Dongxu Technology has also won several large server projects in the world, which even made IBM a little jealous. But I've only heard about this, and no one knows how. But Dongxu Technology's server technology is very bullish, it is certain.
"I don't know what Brother Chaoyang thinks of movies and TV series?" Qiu Bosong did not return to Boss Zhang's question, but asked the donkey head to the horse's mouth.
"Is it broadcast online?" Boss Zhang's face paused.
"It's not a player like Thunderbolt and Storm Video, it's a real movie and TV series website. For example, in addition to the columns of news, military, and sports, the Sohu website also has columns such as movies and TV series.
And before the start of the movie and TV series, in addition to the title of the movie and TV series itself. Add a 30-second, or even 1-minute ad before the official start. ”
"This ......" Boss Zhang's eyes suddenly lit up, and even his breathing began to become a little heavy.
Originally, he couldn't see the future of the portal clearly, but at this time, he suddenly saw a ray of sunlight through the dark clouds that had been pressing on his head.
