Chapter 154: The Ecosystem of This Era
In the conference room, a total of four people gathered around an oval table for a meeting, and the meeting was presided over by Liu Yun. These four people are Liu Yun and Liu Yueru, Liu Shihua, the director of the technical department, and Zhang Lili, the director of the finance department.
After the final exams, most of the students started a leisurely and comfortable vacation, but Liu Yun rushed between the two places without making any stops.
Liu Yueru said with a serious expression: "Mr. Liu, Sina Company has agreed to our second resource replacement plan. In other words, starting tomorrow, the link to 123 will be officially set up on the Sina forum. ”
Liu Yun nodded with satisfaction, and asked again, "What about Yi, what is the reply?"
Liu Yueru replied: "Yi's opinion is similar to Sina's, they are not willing to use the portal as an exchange resource, and are only willing to give the promotion link of the forum." ”
Liu Yun frowned slightly, hesitated for a moment and decisively refused, and said: "No, then we will lose a lot, Yi Forum and Sina's forum are not the same level." ”
He glanced at the expressions of the crowd and continued, "The most valuable thing about our guide page is actually the first row at the top. There are currently six recommended slots, Taobao, Tencent, Sohu, Sina, Youyou, and. There are only two companies that really pay in the middle of the period, namely Taobao and . ”
Speaking, he continued: "123 also spends a lot of money on promotion every year, and for our company, if there are 50% of paying users, our financial situation will be more abundant." ”
Zhang Lili, the director of the finance department, opened her mouth and reminded: "Mr. Liu, five of these six companies have signed agreements, and only our own Youyou is left, what do you mean?"
Liu Yun glanced at Zhang Lili, nodded and said, "As long as Yi is willing to pay for advertising, this recommended position of Youyou will be given to him, and we will retreat this time and go to the recommended position in the second row." ”
Liu Shihua, the director of the technical department, asked tentatively: "Mr. Liu, if Yi Company agrees to exchange resources with the portal, you don't agree either?"
After hearing this, Liu Yun tapped the table with the tip of his pen and said, "That's natural, I never expected the four major gateway stations to agree to this plan, as long as one of them agrees in the middle of the term, we can use this to deter the others." Today's swap resources are ideal in my opinion. ”
Speaking of this, he stood up and took a blank piece of paper, half-bent over and propped his hands on the table, first writing a few words "Sohu!" and then a few words "chat software".
Looking at everyone's puzzled looks, Liu Yun smiled mysteriously, and then wrote a few words, "Sina Forum."
"You can think about it, from the portal, to the messaging and chatting software, to the forum community, we 123 have completed a layout that almost covers the Internet. Some friends only visit the portal, some friends only visit the forum community, and some friends only use software, but at the same time there are very few who do not use these three. It is foreseeable that in the near future, the market share of 123 in the navigation page will be further increased, and this time the resource exchange is the most reasonable. Liu Yun explained with a smile.
Everyone was stunned for a while, and suddenly found that the layout of this young boss had seen so far, from the portal to the community forum, and then to the chat communication software, in this era of 2004, this is an interconnected ecosystem, covering almost all friends in China.
However, it would be better to replace Sohu with Yi Company's 163 station. Everyone couldn't help but think that in terms of the number of station visits, Yi's 163 stations are still slightly better than Sohu.
Liu Yun also thought of the thoughts of several management. However, the so-called moon is cloudy and sunny, and everything in this world cannot be perfect. Yi was unwilling to accept this condition, so he could only change to Sohu.
"Of course, it is indispensable for our director Liu's senior brother Ma Yun to generously donate 3 million advertising expenses. He looked at Liu Yueru with a smile and added.
Liu Yueru glanced at Liu Yun a little angrily, why does this cousin like to tie himself and Ma Yun together so much, and he shouts at every turn is Ma Yun's junior sister, or directly your senior brother Ma Yun.
She knew in her heart that such a bundle of publicity could bring a lot of attention to the company. I just wonder why Liu Yun admires Ma Yun so much, but he didn't pay equal attention to Chen Tianqiao, the richest man in Shanda Company last year, and Ding Lei in Yi Company, the richest man last year.
You must know that in 2004, Ma Yun's wealth was still not visible in the list of rich people in China.
Of course, compatriots from Xiangjiang are also indispensable, with an advertising fee of 2 million. This money is the solution to our company's urgent needs. Liu Yun continued to talk eloquently, "In view of the kindness of Xiangjiang compatriots, they can continue to renew our recommended seats at a preferential price next year, and the increase will not exceed 10, that is, the total amount will be up to 2.2 million." ”
"2.2 million, it's a bit cheap, isn't it?" Zhang Lili said with a slight frown. In the two months since joining the company, she has conducted an in-depth investigation of the interconnection industry with a conscientious attitude, although as a financial executive, she only needs to know a little about this industry and do her job well.
She understands that at present, in Huaxia, there are tens of millions of friends surfing through this navigation page, and the price of 2.2 million is too cheap for her.
Liu Yueru glanced at Liu Yun helplessly, and this cousin began to fool around again. In private, Liu Yun mentioned to her more than once that he was not optimistic about the prospect at all, this station will fall at the speed of light in the future, even 123 can't save it, while it still has a little popularity in the past few years, let it spit out more advertising money.
Liu Yun smiled faintly, he understood that in recent years, rich Internet companies have gone to engage in tours, such as Sina, Yi, Tencent, and Sohu are also considering this aspect, if they don't continue to raise funds like Alibaba, they will have sufficient cash flow.
Youyouluo's 123 just gives a station promotion link, and the station itself also makes money from advertising, so the price is not low, and it is only the last recommended position in the first row, no matter how expensive it is, it is estimated that it will not be able to pay for it.
However, Liu Yun didn't say these words explicitly, just blindly said that this was a friendship price for the cooperative unit, and said that he was cheeky and withdrew from the banner of friendship between mainland and Hong Kong, even Liu Yueru was speechless for a while, and secretly sighed in his heart: full of friendly slogans, but he was thinking about how to make the other party pay a little more money. Boss, can you fake it a little more?
