Liu Yun's hometown of Donghai City once had such a proverb: If you have five cents in your pocket, you will spend 1 yuan.

A lot of people in this city have this mentality: eat it all, use it up, spend it all, and then be healthy.

What is that?

Therefore, many people here like to eat, drink, earn and spend as much as they want, but many foreigners who work hard in the city work hard and save money to buy a house. This can only be said to be a difference in consumption concepts.

For the three projects that are ready to be invested, Liu Yun feels that it is not difficult for resorts and comprehensive commercial plazas to make money, but it is just a matter of more and less. As for the large amusement parks, you should put some thought into it and think about how it should be operated.

He remembered that Disneyland in Japan was also a loss at the beginning, but in the end, all those high-paid Western management were cut off, and it turned into a profit. It's a good way to cross the river and tear down the bridge, and by the time you're familiar with Disney's operations, there's no need for these Western executives to continue to exist. However, this is also very much in line with the character of Japanese people all along.

It's just that this time Liu Yun also feels that this method is feasible, and he is also a little eager to try...... , but everything will wait until it is finalized.

After discussing with Wang Haibin for a while, he left under the driver's car. These three are not small projects, and they need to be discussed and decided between the top levels of the government. Liu Yun had already thrown the hydrangea, so it was up to them to see if they could catch it.

……

A few days later, a video of Liu Yun's speech at the conference began to circulate widely on the Internet.

"Yoyo Group will never be involved in the real estate industry. This promise echoed in the ears of netizens like a deafening oath.

At the same time, Liu Yun updated his personal blog, which read: I must make an explanation, the real estate that Yoyo Company does not involve only refers to the commercial housing of residents, but it may involve the accommodation inn of the resort in the future, or the comprehensive commercial plaza, for everyone's eating, drinking and entertainment, but that's all. ”

Of course, whether these projects can take shape depends on the results of discussions on the part of the city government, and it is expected that there will be no conclusion for a while.

In fact, most netizens, like Liu Yun, saw that Yoyo promised not to involve the real estate industry, but they simply thought that it was referring to residential commercial housing. After all, most people don't care about the cost of resort accommodation, or the price of playing in the commercial plaza, these are inconsequential things, which make netizens feel sad and beat the keyboard to denounce social injustice, and it is always the high housing prices.

Liu Yun did this, just to make a more satisfactory explanation of this video that went viral on the Internet, and not to leave a loophole in the future.

Soon after, netizens frantically poured into Liu Yun's blog, but almost no one cared about the paragraph he just posted on the blog.

What kind of inn, commercial plaza, it's our business? We only care about the house price! All the messages are almost praise, praising Youyou as a conscientious enterprise.

"If Mr. Liu engages in real estate and lowers housing prices, then we will support you even more. You will become a character who feels Huaxia. ”

A netizen left such a message, and countless netizens immediately liked it, putting this piece of information in a prominent position.

Someone else replied: "Strongly support Mr. Liu's entry into real estate!"

Liu Yun looked at the message, and rubbed his eyebrows helplessly, didn't he write that this blog will involve some real estate? For example, holiday inns, as well as commercial plazas, maybe in the eyes of the majority of netizens, only residential commercial housing is considered real estate, right?

He is going to reply to this netizen, but let's be tactful and not too direct.

"If I set a low price, I'm going to be the target of public criticism, so it's better not to get out of the muddy waters. ”

So far, it can't be too obvious. But even so, you still won the favor of many netizens, at least you didn't go along with it.

The management of Yoyo Company was also a little caught off guard by the boss's sudden idea. They originally wanted to say to Liu Yun that the company's capital flow was sufficient, and they wanted to enter the real estate industry, but they didn't expect the boss to suddenly come out like this.

In the past year, the increase in housing prices in Ningjiang is like a rocket, this is an opportunity for the world to lose money, and the boss actually took the initiative to give up.

People are sometimes such strange creatures, hating the high housing prices, and wanting to get in and become one of the real estate developers.

……

This turmoil came and went quickly, and it quickly dissipated in the eleventh holiday. It's just that netizens occasionally talk about Yoyo and will praise the young boss.

On October 1, Yoyo Technology had the first ticket bounce in history, and the release of Yoyo antivirus software was postponed to October 8.

But on the first day of the National Day holiday, Yoyo Technology was not idle, and they released another new product, Yoyo Smart Input Method.

Today's operating system,Microsoft's own input method,And most netizens are used to pinyin input,After all, there are few keyboard masters with five strokes。 Therefore, when the novel simple spelling input mode and the Yoyo input method with a rich thesaurus came out, it was welcomed by countless netizens, and the Yoyo security guard also provided netizens with a one-click installation function.

In just seven days, the number of downloads has exceeded 20 million, which makes the industry exclaim that Yoyo has once again a heavyweight product.

However, this time, most netizens did not over-interpret the announcement of the postponement of Yoyo Antivirus, thinking that it was just a normal adjustment of the company.

Only Liu Yun understands that the ecological chain of Yoyo Technology has been upgraded from 3 rings to 4 rings because of the horizontal appearance of Yoyo intelligent input method. This seemingly inconspicuous step has made this already powerful ecological chain more airtight and invulnerable.

In this world, many things are closely linked step by step. Because of this financing of up to 150 million US dollars, Yoyo Technology frantically recruited, burned money, and developed the Yoyo intelligent input method within three months, and then released it on the first day of the 11th National Day. He understands that software problems can be solved in subsequent patches, taking the lead and seizing the opportunity in the market, which is fleeting, and he can't hesitate.

What's more, this step also paves the way for Yoyo Technology's most heavyweight product, Yoyo antivirus software. With such a product, Yoyo Technology has more than 10 million users.

On the last day of the National Day holiday, Yoyo Technology issued an announcement that the anti-virus software was officially launched, and what made netizens crazy was one of the sentences: even if netizens who do not have a Yoyo pass, as long as they download the Yoyo smart input method, they can use Yoyo anti-virus software for free until the end of this year, that is, on December 31.

In all previous announcements, Liu Yun has always emphasized that if you want to try antivirus software for free, you must sign up for a Yoyo pass.

After all, it's all free for you, what's the trouble with signing up for a pass?

But this time, because of the emergence of the Youyou input method, Liu Yun's ambition is growing, and he also feels that the steps should be bigger.

Those netizens who don't have a Yoyo pass, as long as they download the Yoyo input method, they can still get a free trial period of nearly 3 months. In this way, it kills two birds with one stone, which not only increases the number of users of antivirus software, but also allows many netizens who do not have a pass account to experience the products of Yoyo Technology.

This is through the setting of these four projects one after another, so that netizens have a sense of dependence on the use of these products, and over time, the pastability of these users will continue to improve.

Antivirus software is a key part, but it is backed by the browser, input method, security guard, three traffic weapons, and then relying on various preferential measures, with the momentum of thunder, but with the momentum of boiling frogs in warm water slowly devouring the market.

A year and a half later, Liu Yun believes that with antivirus software as the hub and the remaining three products as the branches, an unbreakable ecosystem will be built.

As Liu Yun expected, netizens have a great interest in this new antivirus software, and in the past period, this product has been overwhelmingly promoted, and there has even been a rare bounce.

Some people are curious: "What is Yoyo trying to do this? It is said that this antivirus software has cost hundreds of millions of dollars from development to launch, including advertising, and now the longest free trial period has even reached one year. Do they think they don't have enough money to burn?"

"Liu is always a good person in the Internet, there are security guards, browsers, input methods and anti-virus software, and they don't charge money, they are here to benefit our netizens!"

"Yes, plus he announced not long ago that he would not engage in real estate, Yoyo is really a rare conscientious enterprise. ”

"I'm thinking, how many people will choose to pay, 60 yuan a year, with the investment of Yoyo Technology, it takes more than 1 million paying users to return to the cost, which is simply impossible!"

It has only been 3 days since the launch of Yoyo antivirus software, and the installed base has exceeded 5 million, but there are only a handful of netizens who directly choose 60 yuan a year to pay, after all, most people prefer to use free things. This is also what Liu Yun wants to see.

Netizens can't see the strangeness, which doesn't mean that those in the industry don't understand.

For example, Zhou Hongyi, the president of Youyou Technology, looked at the almost skyrocketing number of downloads of antivirus software, his expression was solemn, and he couldn't see joy, anger and sorrow.

"In just seven days, the installed base of antivirus software has reached 10 million, and the installed base of the input method is close to 20 million.

There was a little complexity in his heart. It stands to reason that he, as the president of Youyou Technology, should be happy to see that these four projects have achieved good results, but at this moment, Lao Zhou's heart is not happy, and an inexplicable complex emotion lingers in his heart.

Not long ago, Liu Yun announced an appointment, Liu Shihua, the company's technical director, will also serve as the vice president of Youyou Technology, and be fully responsible for the technical research and development of four projects.

He understands that the young boss has been preparing for a rainy day, and after the expiration of his contract, he can take over his work without hindrance, and now he has more or less the mind to check himself.

A thought suddenly rose in Lao Zhou's heart: If I propose to continue to stay in Youyou after the expiration of my two-year contract, will he agree?

No, he wouldn't agree! The young boss was too controlling and didn't want too much autonomy for his employees. As a bigwig of the Internet, he also has the mentality of a superior, and he doesn't like to be ordered and instructed.

During this period of his leisurely period, he had a greater degree of freedom because of the agreement in the contract, and because the period of time was only two years.

"Last time, he had already tested me and asked me if I would like to promote the Yoyo input method, but I chose to be perfunctory. He certainly wouldn't like disobedient subordinates. ”

That conversation meant that as soon as the two-year contract expired, parting ways was an inevitable result.

Thinking of this, Lao Zhou couldn't help but smile wryly, how could his ambition suddenly dissipate. Isn't his goal to build an Internet company and argue with those powerful bigwigs, but now he has the idea of working for others.

He quickly shook his head vigorously to shake off this unrealistic idea.

When Lao Zhou's heart went through a period of hesitant needle. Liu Yun met with Liu Shihua in his chairman's office.

"Mr. Liu, your proposal last time was really powerful, Warcraft's latest expansion film "Burning Expedition" has undergone these revisions, we have used several experts and professors to publish a press release on the Internet, and even let the news column of the TV station make some positive reports, and the approval of the Ministry of Culture is relatively smooth, of course, I and those leaders have also quietly ventilated. ”

Liu Shihua paused slightly, and said with some admiration: "Mr. Liu, you are simply prescient. The last time the changes were proposed, such as the change of thieves to stalkers, the growth of undead flesh, and the transformation of corpses into graves, which is where the Ministry of Culture has objections to this game. We took the initiative to make changes in the new information film, and the leaders of the Ministry of Culture were very satisfied and thought we were interesting. ”

He was surprised how the boss knew what the Ministry of Culture was dissatisfied with Warcraft, and then acted in advance and asked Blizzard to make adjustments. Could it be that he has an inside line on the side of the Ministry of Culture?

Of course, Liu Yun will not say it explicitly, this is his relationship. It is impossible for the other party to get to the bottom of it.

Now that Burning Crusade has been won, the game will continue to bring a steady stream of wealth to itself for the next two and a half years.

It's just that there is still a problem in front of Liu Yun, and Blizzard wants to make some adjustments to the contract agreement.

When the original contract agreement was drawn up, it did agree to five years, but it was limited to the initial Level 60 version, excluding subsequent expansions. So every time you expand, there is the possibility of re-editing. If you don't agree, then use this old-world version for five years, which is obviously not realistic.

This is not that Liu Yun is unwilling to add this clause, but the overlord clause left to him by the shrewd Americans.

In terms of negotiation skills, it is true that the level of the Americans is much higher than that of the South Koreans.
