"Not bad, yes! The number of registrations is 500,000 in the morning, and it is not a steady more than one million in one day! Moreover, it is not the peak of Internet access, and there will be more in the evening, and there is hope to hit 2 million today. ”

After listening to the report of the project manager, Mr. Zhang of Sohu said happily.

Entering 2003, I feel that the entire Internet industry has entered the spring!

In fact, at the end of last year, Facebook was launched, and the harsh winter of the Internet passed.

The Internet in China is becoming more and more popular, and the number of Internet users is increasing, and similarly, there are more and more "hot models" in the Internet industry.

Of course, the number of registered users on Facebook exceeded 5 million, the number of users on the day of the launch of Sina Blog exceeded 2 million, and the number of users on the day of the launch of Sohu Blog is also expected to exceed 2 million!

These numbers were unimaginable before.

Of course, this also has to do with the quality of the website itself.

These websites are all blogs, which should not have been so popular, but after Facebook's miraculous reform, the seemingly backward blog site has been rejuvenated and turned into a state-of-the-art social platform!

Whether it is from the perspective of user experience or user interactivity, it is the original version of the blog.

That's why these websites are doing well now.

All of this is thanks to Facebook, those likes, comments, retweets, and @等功能 are so easy to use!

Of course, he is only grateful in his heart, and will not say it, let alone show it.

This is a mutual reference, what Facebook can do, why can't you do it, and this thing has not been patented.

Thinking of Facebook, he thought that the Facebook game platform was also launched today, and he didn't know what the results were.

"By the way, do you know the results of the Facebook game platform, it seems to be a little later than us, and it will not be officially launched until ten o'clock. However, based on the number of users of Facebook, it is estimated that the results will not be bad. Mr. Zhang asked again.

There are basically no secrets in the Internet industry, and these data are not trade secrets, and it will not be long before the website itself will make it public.

"I inquired, and by noon, the number of users over there was more than a million. The project manager replied.

"Oh, good grades, I expected. It seems that Lianzhong wingers have a headache on their side, by the way, and Tencent! Tencent's game platform has not yet been launched, and after Tencent is also launched, the game platform will become a four-nation competition, haha. Let them fight, with Lianzhong winger Tencent involved in Facebook's energy, we will have more opportunities on the blog side. Mr. Zhang said with a smile.

............

It really made him guess correctly, the person who paid the most attention to the launch of the Facebook game platform may not be the person on Facebook, but Mr. Wei of Lianzhong!

Before ten o'clock in the morning, he gathered a group of senior executives of the company, gathered in the large conference room, and asked the secretary to prepare computers and projectors in advance.

Prepare to download the Facebook game platform as soon as possible, and then everyone will observe and discuss.

At ten o'clock, the Facebook game platform was launched, and the secretary downloaded the platform as soon as possible, and then installed the software.

In just twenty seconds after installing the software, there were already a lot of exclamations in the office.

"Facebook's technical strength is too strong!

"No, it's not hard to do at the technical level, but why don't so many companies think of doing this, everyone is used to that kind of simple installation strip, and no one pays attention to this installation interface. ”

"There must be a very good and at the same time very demanding product manager on Facebook, the devil of details!"

"The technical director over there is Lu Qi, a top student from an Ivy League school, who used to perform mediocre in Yitang. How did it come to Facebook, it's like opening a hanging! The products made by the leader are better than the other, from Facebook to the Facebook game platform, whether it is technology or details, I really can't find any faults. ”

Of course, they don't know that this so-called product manager is actually two people in charge.

Lu Qi is responsible for technology, and the user experience is personally checked by Yu Wenfei.

In terms of technology, Lu Qi and his team didn't say that it was absolutely the best in China!

In terms of user experience, not to mention, not to mention China, there is no one in the world who has a higher vision than Yu Wenfei.

The combination of strong and strong, the result is like this, the products made to beat the whole industry!

When the game was installed and the main interface of the platform was entered, everyone was silent.

Blushing, ashamed......

I have been doing it for five or six years, and I used to think it was very good, but I was not afraid of comparing goods if I didn't know the goods.

Now that I see the Facebook game platform, and then I look at my own Lianzhong, it's really ...... No eyes!

Mr. Wei sighed, "If we fall behind, we will be beaten! We used to have no opponents, and we all did not have the consciousness of being prepared for danger in times of peace, and still less did we have the determination to take the initiative to seek innovation and change, and this responsibility is mainly ...... to me."

"Mr. Wei, don't say that, I'm blushing, our technical department hasn't done a good job. Give us a little time, and when we go back today, I'll gather the people and prepare for the new version!" said the technical director, blushing.

Mr. Wei waved his hand, "This is not the responsibility of one of your departments, to be honest, all of us here are responsible." Keep watching, open that happy landlord to play and take a look. ”

The secretary operated the computer and played a game to fight the landlord.

The whole process took less than five minutes to end, and the game of fighting landlords was very fast-paced.

During the presentation, the room was silent.

Because everyone once again found that the leadership of the Facebook game platform is not only the beautiful interface in the installation process, nor the UI design of the main interface of the platform, but also the game experience, it is much ahead of Lianzhong......

In the various details of the game, Mr. Wei looked at it carefully, and he was shocked to find that he couldn't find any place, which was Lianzhong that could perform better!

This is an all-round lead, and Mr. Wei suddenly felt a heavy sense of powerlessness.

Now the only advantage of Lianzhong may be that the platform has been established for a long time and has more users.

However, the Facebook game platform is not alone, and there is a huge social interaction platform of Facebook behind him......

If you only look at the valuation, Facebook has even become the largest Internet company in China!

Also the richest internet company!

With $400 million in hand, what other company has so much cash!

Of course, the news that 200 million of the $400 million went directly into the Star Technology account has not been made public.

"Let's talk about what we should do. After being silent for a while, Mr. Wei raised his head and said.

In the conference room, everyone except him lowered their heads, not knowing what they were thinking.

can mix with the company's executives, there are no stupid people, at least in their respective fields, how can they be considered elites.

Up to now, everyone has an ominous premonition in their hearts, that is, Lianzhong has a big crisis!

Facebook's rapid rise took only half a year to make a valuation of 4 billion US dollars, which is unique in the history of the domestic Internet!

In the first round of financing, Facebook got a huge amount of $400 million, and the first new project they launched before and after getting so much was the chess and card game platform!

Obviously, Facebook must be very important to this project, and it is only allowed to succeed and not to fail.

For Lianzhong, life is sad......

In terms of user base, Facebook is not weak at all, and even user activity and stickiness are stronger.

On the quality of the gaming platform itself, this ...... Don't mention it.

In terms of financial resources, Mr. Wei thought about the big villa he had just bought, but the balance had not yet been paid! The company only received more than 100 million yuan a year by relying on membership fees, and after deducting various expenses, the net profit did not exceed 30 million. After doing so many years, his net worth has just exceeded 100 million, and the unit is still RMB.

Take your own head and fight with others for a round of financing, which is 400 million Facebook.

Seeing that none of the executives spoke, Mr. Wei was a little disappointed and a little cold.

Usually, these guys talk loudly in front of themselves, and when they talk about the equity incentive of the company's listing, their eyes are even brighter, and they can't wait to lie down and lick their shoes.

As a result, when the real big thing happened, one by one they became ostriches again.

There are still not so many high-tech people's eyes, and people are more sincere. The technical director gritted his teeth and said: "If our platform of Lianzhong also achieves the level of Facebook, it is not impossible. ”

Mr. Wei's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked, "How long does it take?"

"If all the technicians in the company work overtime at full capacity, it will be about half a year, but during this period, everyone has a maximum of one day off a month, and the working hours are more than 12 hours a day......" After weighing it, the technical director said with difficulty.

Mr. Wei was stunned for a moment, and said in disbelief: "But, didn't you tell me yesterday that this platform was built by Facebook in more than a month? Why did we take so long!"

The technical director grinned bitterly, "Mr. Wei, then you shouldn't have paid attention to the number of employees on Facebook." Family...... The company has almost 2,000 people! Among them, there are more than 1,200 pure technical personnel, and they are all very good! However, there are only 32 technicians in our company, including me. I just said that it will take half a year, to be honest, I don't know the bottom of my heart, and we still directly copy and imitate, and there are ready-made products to learn from. ”

Mr. Wei was dumbfounded.

In the past, the whole industry was laughing at Facebook, spending high salaries to support so many technicians, just eating and not working.

Now I realize that people are far-sighted.

When you really have a project to do, you can casually pull a mature team of hundreds of people, and you can do any project quickly, efficiently and with high quality!
