Seeing that Mr. Ma asked himself, Xu Yiyang smiled slightly and said: "Gao Jian actually can't talk about it, but I have a little bit of my own shallow opinion." ”

Ma Huateng hurriedly said, "Mr. Xu, please speak." ”

Xu Yiyang smiled modestly: "I'm an amateur, so if there is anything unprofessional, please don't mind Mr. Ma and Mr. Zhang." ”

"Where, where!" the two of them waved their hands busily, with serious expressions.

Xu Yiyang said humbly: "Actually, I personally think that it is okay to imitate the product form, just like you produced the world's first pair of jeans, I can also follow the production of jeans, as long as I do not completely copy your style and do not steal your brand, this is understandable." ”

Speaking of this, Xu Yiyang changed his words and said: "However, if I even imitate your brand name, it will really be a problem." ”

Ma Huateng said with some embarrassment: "What Mr. Xu said is that I have also considered this problem, and I also wanted to make a trick at that time, so I named the name OICQ." ”

Xu Yiyang nodded and said, "Mr. Ma, let me tell you the truth, imitating the name of ICQ, I personally feel that you are a bit of a fascination with the authorities." ”

Ma Huateng hurriedly asked, "How do you say it?"

Xu Yiyang said: "You see, the name ICQ, in our country, there are only a very few people who have a deep understanding of the Internet, only to know what it is and what it means, but now you pull a random person from the street and from the Internet café, most of them don't know what ICQ is, so your name ICQ, not only can't borrow light, but also bury mines for yourself." ”

Ma Huateng and Zhang Zhidong both nodded slightly, with solemn expressions.

Subsequently, Xu Yiyang said: "And I'll be honest, the name OICQ is the first difficult to hear, the second is difficult to remember, and the third is difficult to say, and it is really difficult to read." ”

After saying that, he smiled and said, "Look, the two of them met, A asked B, do you know OICQ? Do you have an OICQ number? What is your OICQ number? Doesn't it sound awkward?"

Ma Huateng thought about it seriously and said, "What Mr. Xu said does make sense, this name is indeed relatively long and difficult to pronounce......"

As he spoke, Ma Huateng asked, "Mr. Xu doesn't know if there are any good suggestions?"

Xu Yiyang smiled slightly: "My suggestion is very simple. ”

As he spoke, he stretched out two fingers: "It's called QQ"

"QQ?" Ma Huateng asked rhetorically, "What does QQ mean?"

Xu Yiyang asked rhetorically: "Does it need meaning?"

Ma Huateng subconsciously asked, "Isn't it needed?"

Xu Yiyang nodded: "No need." ”

After saying that, he said, "What do you do whatever it means? You just need to know that the name is easy to remember and easy to say!"

"As soon as users talk about your product, they will have you played QQ, what is your QQ number? than you have played OICQ, what is your OICQ number, is it much more smooth?"

"Moreover, we Chinese people say that the overlapping words themselves seem intimate, and many parents give their children nicknames and nicknames between couples are overlapping words, QQ just is. ”

As he spoke, Xu Yiyang asked again: "As for the meaning, do you think domestic users will pay attention to what Video Compact Disc means?"

Ma Huateng came to his senses in an instant, and immediately replied: "No, I believe that 99% of domestic users don't know what Video Compact Disc means." ”

Xu Yiyang said: "Yes, because English is not our mother tongue, why do we need to know what VCD stands for? We only need to know that VCD is a disc player, as for why VCD is not KCD and FCD, they don't need to know at all, and they don't need to know." ”

Ma Huateng said in surprise: "Mr. Xu, you really made me feel empowered!"

In Ma Huateng's eyes, Xu Yiyang is almost a genius.

A genius who has the courage to invest $4.8 million in a start-up at the age of 18.

An eighteen-year-old can see through the essence of many Internet things, and even meet future geniuses.

If OICQ continues to use this name, it is likely that in the next year or two, or even less, ICQ will find out and sue for infringement.

So, it's a wise decision to change your name ahead of time.

Moreover, Xu Yiyang even woke up the dreamer with a sentence.

Ma Huateng himself is an entrepreneur with a technical background, so he has a deeper pursuit of Internet things.

He knew that ICQ's name was taken from the homonym I seek you, which means "I seek you".

So he named his product OICQ, in which the meaning of ICQ is the same as that of its creator ICQ, and the meaning of O is Opening, which can be understood as an open platform.

However, Xu Yiyang's analogy about VCD made him understand a truth.

In the future, they will only know that OICQ is a chat software, and they will also feel that this name is annoying, difficult to remember and difficult to read, and they don't understand what people have drawn their brains and give such a name.

Rather than that, why do you have to stick to OICQ? After all, your users don't even bother to figure out what OICQ means.

And QQ is really good to listen to and remember!

Xu Yiyang picked up the teacup at this time, poured a small pool of water on the surface of the round glass coffee table, and then dipped his fingers in the water, and wrote two huge QQ letters on the glass surface.

When he wrote, he deliberately wrote these two letters more cartoonishly.

Then, Xu Yiyang looked at Ma Huateng and Zhang Zhidong, pointed to these two letters, and asked with a smile: "Look, these two letters are written like this, do they look like two very cute big eyes?"

The eyes of the two immediately projected over, and at this glance, their eyes flashed with excitement!

Xu Yiyang is right, these two letters were written by him like this, and they really look like two cute big eyes.

All of a sudden, it gives people a feeling of finishing touch.

In comparison, the four letters of OICQ, no matter how they are written, seem very mediocre.

The two of them were so impressed by the QQ written by Xu Yiyang.

Ma Huateng even thinks that if you design a logo or visual materials based on this concept, users will definitely feel very charming!

Almost at this moment, Ma Huateng made the decision to change the name of OICQ to QQ.

But for the sake of insurance, he turned his head, looked at Zhang Zhidong, and couldn't hide his excitement and asked, "Zhidong, what do you think?"

Zhang Zhidong was also very excited, and blurted out: "I think it's very good! If we change our name to QQ, then our promotion will also save a lot of worry." ”

Saying that, he said: "Promoting this kind of thing is to make the other party remember it better than anyone, and from this point alone, QQ is countless times stronger than OICQ!"

Ma Huateng nodded approvingly, immediately looked at Xu Yiyang, and said excitedly: "Mr. Xu! Your suggestion is really too valuable! If it weren't for your reminder, I might never have found out about this problem until I received a ......lawyer's letter from ICQ."

Xu Yiyang smiled slightly, and his heart was extremely agreeable.

In fact, Mr. Ma really didn't expect this in his last life, he just wanted to rub the popularity of ICQ, but it turned out to be crooked.

Later, ICQ sued OICQ, and Mr. Ma really had no choice, so he simply changed his name to QQ.

But I didn't expect it to be clumsy.

After changing the name of OICQ to QQ, Tengxun has developed by leaps and bounds, and has laid its own giant foundation in a short period of time.

And Xu Yiyang used his mouth in advance to tell him about Mr. Ma's future in advance.

However, this can help Tengxun avoid some detours, and it can also avoid the risk of legal action.

But Ma Huateng didn't know that the brilliant idea that Xu Yiyang told him turned out to be a flash of inspiration that he would produce in a state of stress in the future.

At this time, deep in his heart, his gratitude to Xu Yiyang was sublimated to a new height.

He felt more and more that he was really a lucky person, as if he had been walking for a long time in a row, and then God suddenly favored him and sent him such an amazing investor.

So, after thanking Xu Yiyang repeatedly, he blurted out: "After I go back, I will have a meeting with you to explain that OICQ will be officially renamed QQ in the next version!"

Xu Yiyang nodded and said: "It's best to find a talented artist, find a way to make this QQ two letters more detailed cartoon, and it is best to reflect it on the company's logo and company virtual image." ”

Ma Huateng was taught-minded and said: "Okay, Mr. Xu, don't worry, I have written it down!"

Xu Yiyang didn't expect that he kindly reminded Mr. Ma to avoid legal risks, but Mr. Ma was full of gratitude to himself.

A good investment relationship is a good start, if it continues, but the cooperation between everyone can be easier and more enjoyable, and it may even become a good story in the industry.

……

The drafting of the contract is a technical task.

Both parties need to ensure that the contract not only reflects all the details that were agreed upon, but also avoids all possible loopholes.

This is like a technician developing a software, not only to develop the functions of the software, but also to find the potential bugs of the software, and then fix all of them, so that the software is as flawless as possible.

The three lawyers sat together for a morning, and the body of the contract was only 70% complete, so Xu Yiyang said happily: "Let's go, let's go downstairs to eat first, and then continue to sort out after eating." ”

In the luxury box of the Hilton Hotel, Xu Yiyang ordered a table of high-end meals.

Six people ate more than 10,000 yuan in one meal, which is equivalent to the wages of ordinary workers in Guangcheng for more than a year.

Not to mention entrepreneurs like Ma Huateng, even lawyers like Fang Junhui, who often partner with clients, were shocked by the luxury of Xu Yiyang's meal.

Xu Yiyang didn't care, he hoped to create an impression for the Tengxun team that he was not bad for money and was very generous, so that it could also give them more confidence.

Since they want to be the financiers of Fujixun, they have to give them the illusion that the financiers' fathers are very rich.

After lunch, the six returned to their rooms, and the lawyers continued to work on the contract.

After several rounds of exchange modifications, as well as the confirmation of Xu Yiyang and Ma Huateng, after the contract was finalized, the time was almost three o'clock in the afternoon.

Subsequently, Xu Yiyang, in his personal capacity, signed an investment agreement with Ma Huateng regarding his personal investment in Tengxun Company.

After Xu Yiyang signed his name on the contract and pressed his own handprint, Ma Huateng also stamped the official seal of the company on the contract.

Now, this contract, as long as Xu Yiyang puts 4.8 million into the account of Tengxun Company, it will officially take effect!

Xu Yiyang was excited and excited, but he had been strong and calm, but Ma Huateng could not hide the excitement in his heart, stretched out his hand to Xu Yiyang, and said seriously: "Mr. Xu, thank you for your support and trust! I wish us a happy cooperation!"
