Chapter Seventy-One: The Drawbacks of Renren
Li Zhe's initial plan was to develop in a low-key manner and make a lot of money, but now as the company grows bigger and bigger, it is receiving more and more attention.
Not only Renren, but also many other companies have taken the initiative to contact Peanut Technology, some have expressed investment intentions, and some are seeking business cooperation.
Even the R&D company of QQ Xuanwu has expressed its intention to cooperate with Peanut Technology.
Speaking of Yao Yong, the owner of QQ Xuanwu R&D Company, there is a very interesting thing, he is not only the founder of QQ Xuanwu, but also the nephew of the famous writer Wang Xiaobo, and also a rock singer.
Yao Yong heeded his uncle's advice, gave up rock and roll to become a programmer, and finally founded a software company.
But halfway through, Yao Yong still couldn't forget his musical dream, and ran to join a music group called 'Shuimu Nianhua'.
That's right, it's the Mizuki Nianhua who sang "Life with You".
In this way, QQ Xuanwu and Shuimu Nianhua, two things that can't be beaten by eight poles, are related because of Yao Yong, giving people a feeling of breaking the dimensional wall.
So, someone is ostensibly the owner of a game company, but in fact he is a singer.
Li Zhe also considered copying a song and singing it himself, but after thinking about it for a long time, he couldn't find a suitable one, and finally only thought of two songs, "My Skateboarding Shoes" and "Thunder".
Let him sing other songs, at the level of this incomplete five-tone, for fear of being beaten by the audience, he can only sing these two songs.
"My Skateboarding Shoes" not to mention, it is a song that makes Director Jia cry, and the lyrics reveal a feeling of loneliness, but the song "Thunder" is more terrifying, if you really sing this song, when it is developed in the future, it will not be taken out by sand sculpture netizens every now and then?
Rather than this, it is better to make good money, and in the future, invite a million-year-salary tuner to sing a song "Blooming Life" on the spot, wouldn't it be beautiful.
Although he didn't plan to cooperate with Renren, he still had to give the basic face, Li Zhe asked Zhu Yuhan to transfer his mobile phone number to Chen Yizhou.
In the evening, Li Zhe received an unfamiliar number from the imperial capital.
Pressing the answer button, a hearty laugh came out of the phone.
"Hello Mr. Li, I have admired my name for a long time. ”
Li Zhe said politely: "Mr. Chen has won the award, Chen is always a senior, if you want to say that I have been looking up for a long time, it should be my long-term admiration." ”
Chen Yizhou smiled lightly and said, "Listening to the voice, Mr. Li should be relatively young, he is really young and promising, I am still studying abroad at your age." ”
Li Zhe said: "Chen is always a talent who studied abroad, and naturally he is not comparable to me. ”
"Mr. Li is modest, Mr. Li was able to start from scratch at a young age, and in just over half a year, he created a company with an annual revenue of more than 100 million yuan, which can be called a business miracle, and I myself admire it very much. Chen Yizhou said with a smile.
Li Zhe smiled, stopped continuing to blow with him, and said straight to the point: "Is Mr. Chen's call this time because of the page tour?"
Chen Yizhou said: "Page games are on the one hand, on the other hand, I am very interested in the competitive platform in Mr. Li's mouth, I don't know which one Mr. Li is referring to?"
Li Zhe sighed and said, "Mr. Chen, even if there is no competitive platform, I am not optimistic about Renren." ”
Chen Yizhou was silent for a moment and said, "Because of the content?"
Li Zhe shook his head and said: "Content is only one of the reasons, in fact, the disadvantages of Renren have started since its establishment. ”
"What are the drawbacks?" Chen Yizhou was stunned.
"The positioning of Renren. Li Zhe said.
Chen Yizhou frowned and said, "Renren's positioning is to face the student group, and Facebook is also doing this, is there a problem?"
Li Zhe shook his head helplessly, Chen Yizhou is really stubborn in this regard, and he is determined to follow in the footsteps of Facebook, almost completely copying it, and even a saying has been circulated on the Internet: When a candidate goes to Renren for an interview and puts forward an idea, HR will ask him, does Facebook have this function?
Chen Yizhou is not a fool, and naturally knows the problems of Renren, but with the rapid development of Renren, he has gradually put his worries behind.
Although Chen Yizhou didn't want to think about it, he still couldn't change the existence of the facts.
"Mr. Li, if you have any ideas, you can tell me. Chen Yizhou saw that Li Zhe didn't speak and said.
Li Zhe smiled and said, "Mr. Chen, it doesn't make sense to say it. ”
In fact, what Li Zhe thought in his heart was that there was no benefit to half a dime, so he was too lazy to get into this kind of trouble, after all, it is estimated that he will not have anything to do with Renren in the future.
Chen Yizhou said: "Mr. Li, I can authorize several web games of Renren Games to be an agent of Peanut Technology." ”
Li Zhe showed a smile on his face, although he didn't look down on the other party's few page games, but after all, talking is better than nothing, and it can also increase some revenue, anyway, he only needs to talk a few words casually.
Chen Yizhou gave the benefit, and Li Zhe coughed lightly and said, "Mr. Chen, do you know the biggest difference between Renren and Facebook?"
"The biggest difference?" Chen Yizhou was stunned, he has always been specifically imitating Facebook, and it can be said that there are really few differences.
"Yes, the biggest difference between Renren and Facebook is that Renren is platform-centric, while Facebook is user-centric. Li Zhe moistened his throat with a sip of water, and continued: "With the platform as the center, Renren needs to independently produce a large amount of content to attract users, and user-centered can mobilize the wisdom of users and let them create high-quality content by themselves, forming a virtuous circle, which is a normal social platform." ”
"In this regard, Renren is far inferior to Weibo, users want to view the homepage of a public figure, and they actually have to add friends, and even the number of friends is limited, this design is really unnecessary. ”
Hearing the word Weibo, Chen Yizhou sighed in his heart, because Li Zhe's words hit his sore spot, and the reason why Renren was in a hurry to go public was to alleviate the impact of Weibo.
Although the number of users of Weibo is not as large as that of Renren, even fools can see that Weibo, a new platform, has great potential and will sooner or later surpass traditional SNS platforms such as Renren.
Chen Yizhou thought for a while and said: "Are you talking about competitive platforms referring to Weibo? They are indeed developing well, and I am more optimistic about Weibo, but the impact of Weibo on Renren should not be very big, right?"
Li Zhe smiled, Weibo really can't affect the root of Renren, and can only take away some users, but WeChat is enough to take away all the remaining users of Renren.
