After Liu Yun announced these two things, he ended the meeting and walked back to his office.

After a while, management followed.

The first person to come was Liu Shihua, who walked in with a somewhat complicated face.

"Mr. Liu. ”

"Sit. Liu Yun stretched out his hand and gestured.

Liu Shihua sat in front of the boss, crossed his hands, hesitated for a while and said, "Mr. Liu, there is something I don't know whether to say or not." ”

Liu Yun shrugged his shoulders and said, "Say whatever comes to mind." ”

"Mr. Liu, you have also been mentioning that the company's strategic focus this year is Weibo, as well as the production of smart phones. ”

"Yes, a strategic shift. It will be difficult to increase the market share of the game market in a short period of time, so I have made a plan to officially launch "Swordsman Romance 3" next year with Kingsoft, and the year after that, the Riot company we acquired will launch "League of Legends".

This year will be a blank period for games, and several browser games are insignificant, and they have also been handed over to Ali to operate. ”

Liu Yun did not mention "The Moon Knife", which is not yet in development, and the five-year planning of this game, as well as the huge amount of money, have a great place in his heart.

But this game is more due to a feeling in his heart, Yoyo needs a symbolic game that has both reputation and quality, even if it is not so profitable.

Liu Shihua flashed his eyes, thought for a while and said: "Mr. Liu, "Swordsman Love 3" only has shares of our company over there, but the operation is still in charge of Jinshan, although Yoyo will provide channels for promotion. ”

In addition to being the person in charge of Yoyo Technology, he also has the identity of the vice president of the group company, so it is also his responsibility to take care of the game business.

Liu Yun nodded and replied: "I have also considered this, for Yoyo, what you can get from "Swordsman Romance 3" is only to be able to share part of the revenue and profits, and it cannot increase our market share.

But because NetEase dug too hard into the corners of Jinshan at the beginning, I intervened in this matter out of injustice and a sense of justice, and I also didn't want this relatively good domestic online game to die because of these objective factors. ”

Out of justice?

Liu Shihua couldn't help but reach out and touch his forehead, he was actually used to the boss's cheeky style of doing things and talking.

"For Yoyo, the next game to be true is League of Legends released in 2010, which may be our last battle on PC. Liu Yun continued.

The last battle?

Liu Shihua muttered to himself in some puzzlement, does Yoyo also want to try to transform like Shanda last year?

From Weibo to entering the mobile phone industry, all kinds of signs show that the boss does have this mind.

The grand transformation failed, will Yoyo repeat the mistakes of the past?

Judging from the resources that the two companies have now, it is clear that Yoyo's foundation is better. There is only one legend of the gold-absorbing monster in Shanda's hands, and Yoyo has several popular online games in his hands, as well as computer butlers like Yoyo Technology who monopolize the PC side.

So, they have plenty of venture capital.

Liu Yun looked at the expressions of his subordinates, smiled slightly, and said, "The soldiers are expensive, not too many." I don't want to fill up with a lot of shoddy games, it's pointless. ”

"League of Legends", which is planned to be launched in 2010, is a phenomenal online game that is enough to make Yoyo eat dividends for more than ten years, and on the other hand, after the opening of the mobile Internet era, the number of PC hits has been declining.

So, a strategic shift is inevitable.

Liu Shihua nodded and replied: "I believe in Mr. Liu's judgment and am also optimistic about the future of Weibo, but we should first think about how to defeat Tencent, or how to press the other party first." ”

"It's going to be a long battle, Xiao Liu, I would like to reveal that it is possible that you will be put in charge of the Weibo project in the future. ”

"That'...... , Mr. Zhang, what arrangements do you have?" Liu Shihua was a little surprised by this arrangement.

"I'm just saying it's possible, but there won't be any plans for it anytime soon. Liu Yun smiled and waved his hand.

Liu Shihua is a veteran of the company and a rare talent, and Liu Yun also has a headache about how to arrange him.

Nowadays, those projects under Yoyo Technology have almost become monopolistic on the PC side, and there are almost no decent challengers on the market, so it seems to be a waste to let a capable person like Liu Shihua continue to nest there.

"At least this year, I won't let you go to the Weibo project team. Liu Yun thought for a moment and added.

In a year's time, this battle with Tencent Weibo will begin to see its eyebrows, and no matter who has the advantage, Liu Yun will have to think about what to do next.

"Xiao Liu, do you have any good suggestions for Weibo?"

"What Tencent has, we all have, and we also have what Tencent doesn't have. ”

"I'll think about that, do you have anything else?"

Liu Shihua took out a brand-new mobile phone from his pocket and put it in front of Liu Yun.

YOYO beta phone.

Not long ago, Liu Yun handed over to those management and asked them to do event sales.

"Any questions?" Liu Yun raised his eyebrows and asked with some curiosity.

"Mr. Liu, this is the first smart phone produced by YOYO, right?"

"I can say that, but I'll be honest with you, such a mobile phone can't meet the standard of a smart phone in my heart, and can only be called a pseudo smart phone. ”

"Pseudo-smart machines?" Liu Shihua was slightly stunned, but he was a little curious about this strange and new name.

As the boss of a mobile phone manufacturer, it is a novelty to call the mobile phone products in his hand pseudo smartphones so grandiosely.

If you change to other bosses, you can't wait to say that your products are unparalleled in the world.

Liu Yun picked up the brand-new mobile phone, took out a metal pen, and swiped it on the screen.

"Frankly speaking, I personally don't like this way of operating, it's very cumbersome, so I prefer to use buttons, and I believe that there are many users who think the same way as me. So I didn't plan to bring this phone to market. ”

Liu Shihua nodded silently in agreement.

Liu Yun picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, and continued: "Last year, the first iPhone released by Apple was a smartphone in the true sense, with no keyboard on the front and complete and smooth touch screen operation. Of course, this phone also has a lot of problems, it does not support 3G networks, it also does not support copy and paste, and the battery cannot be disassembled. ”

After a slight pause, he changed his words and continued: "But I believe that this will still be the direction of the development of smart phones, and our pseudo-smart machines that still use metal pen touch screens will be eliminated sooner or later." ”

Liu Shihua was a little puzzled: "Then why do we still develop this type of mobile phone." ”

Liu Yun thought for a few seconds, and said with a smile: "You can't become fat by eating in one bite, we have to learn to walk before we can learn to run." ”

A few years later, major domestic mobile phone manufacturers have entered the smartphone industry, because the system of this industry has been very mature, and now except for Apple's symbolic launch of a test machine, there is no example to refer to, and it used to be on its own.

Liu Shihua nodded when he heard this, hesitated for a while, and said, "Mr. Liu, I have an idea. ”

"Go on. ”

"Yoyo Technology, which I am in charge of, can try to enter new fields. ”

"What field?"

Liu Shihua flashed his eyes and said: "Since Mr. Liu is so optimistic about the prospects of the mobile phone industry, we will try to develop the mobile version of these projects." ”

Liu Yun was slightly stunned, this guy really has a vision, and he began to lay out the mobile phone at this point in time.

He was silent for a moment and said: "I also agree with the layout of the mobile phone, but it is still too early, and there is no suitable operating system." ”

Whether it is iOS or Android, it has not yet been officially developed, and without this platform, it is like building a building without a foundation, which is not unrealistic at all.

At the moment, the minds of these two people are not on the same channel.

Liu Yun's mind was full of IOS or Android, but Liu Shihua's next sentence suddenly gave him a wake-up call.

"Mr. Liu, how can there be no cooperative operating system, Microsoft's indos phone is now the mainstream mobile phone system, we can develop Yoyo browser, security guard, and antivirus software on this platform. ”

Liu Yun's first reaction was that this method would never work, and the operating system of Indos Phone was a failure that would inevitably decline in his thinking. The money invested in developing a product on this operating system will inevitably be wasted.

He shook his head decisively: "It's not necessary at all, I don't think Indos Phone is a suitable operating system." ”

Liu Shihua was slightly stunned and asked: "Mr. Liu, are you waiting for Apple to improve the IOS system? But the things in this plan are the flowers in the mirror, the moon in the water, and if you continue to wait, I don't know how long it will take." ”

Liu Yun was silent, his fingers tapping on the tabletop, frowning and hesitating.

Android, he will never reveal too much, and Apple's side, the first few IOS systems, are also beta versions, until 2010 with the iphone4 with the launch of the IOS4 system, it can be regarded as a real opening of the curtain of an era.

Putting down the teacup in his hand, Liu Yun continued: "Are you optimistic about the future of Indos Phone?"

Liu Shihua thought for a while and said: "Behind it is Microsoft, this is the reason, although Apple is very powerful, at most the two will divide the world equally." ”

Only Liu Yun understands that in the mobile market, Microsoft's Indos Phone has failed, and it is a collapse.

But now, there is indeed a window period, and it would be a pity if it was wasted like this.

Liu Shihua took a deep breath and said: "Mr. Liu, you said that the mobile phone launched this time is just a test machine, and it doesn't make money, it's a test of the waters, why can't the same method be used in the program research and development of the mobile phone, based on a few Yoyo technology projects on Indos Phone, it is also a beta version, and we don't want economic returns." ”

A sentence to wake up the dreamer!

Yes, the project department of the mobile program should be set up as soon as possible, no Android, no IOS, he can first use the indos phone platform to accumulate experience, technology, and the number of users, and when he switches to the Android or IOS platform in the future, he can adapt faster.

That's the advantage of being the first to go!
