Chapter XXXVIII: Ministry of Legal Network Commerce

The center number of the satellite network is currently located in Baoyang, and the waveguide signal of the satellite network is naturally based on Baoyang City as the core point and radiates to the surrounding areas.

The transmitted signal of each waveguide can be linked to the signals of other waveguides up to 50 km.

The waveguide connection signal with 10,000 series connections can form a more intense waveguide signal source with a depth of 1,000 kilometers, radiating a wider area.

Therefore, as long as the waveguide signal has not radiated to the area, the star network company will never go through the audit and go to the installation service.

In the Sims world, Wu Xiang was busy earning money to buy waveguide production lines and waveguide source materials for real-world companies, and was so busy that he didn't have time to meet Pei Qi, his lover who lives in Liuxi.

After returning to reality, Wu Xiang was so busy that he was dizzy.

The production line of the waveguide factory needs him to install and debug, and after it is incorporated into the packaging production line, Wu Xiang also needs to reprogram the production program.

After being busy, Wu Xiang had to look at whether the community's star catalyst system was stable?

More importantly, the Star Catalyst Company and the server company are not wholly-owned, but joint ventures with foreign capital from SoftBank and Sequoia, and many documents must be approved and dealt with by Wu Xiang in a timely manner.

Financial oversight is a top priority, with both SoftBank and Sequoia sending representatives to the finance departments of the two subsidiaries to monitor the financial situation of the two companies.

Of course, the two financial representatives oversee the finances of the two companies, Star Catalyst and Server, and are not in charge of the use of the $400 million that SoftBank and Sequoia have invested.

The $400 million, after exchanging for shares in Star Catalyst and Server, is already Wu Xiang's property, and no matter how Wu Xiang uses the funds, it has nothing to do with SoftBank and Sequoia.

Because of this investment, before the cooperation was reached, Wu Xiang had already indicated in the contract that the right to use the funds was free, rather than limited to the development of the two subsidiaries of the server and Star Catalyst.

Commercially, there are indeed many VCs who impose a lot of restrictions on the use of the funds they invest in because they are optimistic about the companies they invest in.

But most of that is when the investor is strong and the investor is in demand.

Wu Xiang's Star Network Company is just the opposite, it is SoftBank's Sun Chunsan and Sequoia's Michael who are optimistic about Wu Xiang's Star Network Company, and take the initiative to wave money to invest in Wu Xiang's Star Network Company.

It's a pity that Wu Xiang's equity in Xingwang Company is not in the oil and salt, and he will not give up the slightest share.

Later, it was Wu Xiang who threw out two concepts of server and star catalyst that aroused the great interest of Sun Chunsan and Michael, and opened a breakthrough from these two subsidiaries that had not yet been established.

Rao is like this, at the beginning, Sun Chunsan proposed to invest 10 million US dollars in exchange for 50% of the shares of the two subsidiaries of Star Catalyst and Server, but Wu Xiang refused without hesitation.

Even if Sun Chunsan and Michael took turns to increase the investment amount, the investment amount was as high as 100 million US dollars, Wu Xiang never let go.

$100 million in exchange for 50% of the shares of the server and Star Catalyst is absolutely impossible.

After some tug-of-war bargaining, in the end, Sun Chunsan and Michael were really beaten after Wu Xiang told more beautiful concepts that existed in the server and Star Catalyst, and those concepts were already 100% realized.

The final result is that SoftBank and Sequoia each invest $100 million in Starnet server game platform company, a total of $200 million, and get 15% and a total of 30% of the shares, respectively, and another 100 million US dollars, a total of 200 million US dollars, respectively.

Wu Xiang was in a completely strong position and dominated the business negotiations.

It was not so much SoftBank and Sequoia that invested, but Wu Xiang who sold the shares of the server and Star Catalyst.

Once the server is opened, even if there are only ten game companies, they are already profitable companies.

Depending on the number of people online selected by the game company hosting the server, the price of the server will vary.

For example, a host server that can accommodate 100,000 players online at the same time has a monthly rent of 100,000, a host server that can accommodate 300,000 players online at the same time has a monthly rent of 300,000, and so on.

This price may seem expensive, but it is actually not expensive at all.

Any game, even the simplest browser game, is extremely easy to monetize as long as there are 100,000 simultaneous players on a single server.

There are so many players, it proves that this game is worthy of players' love, as long as players like this game, then they must be willing to spend money and spend a little money.

It doesn't take much, as long as the player spends one or two yuan a day, 100,000 people, then at least 100,000 yuan, how much profit will be a month.

This is just the simplest proportional algorithm.

Players actually really like that game, how can they spend a dollar or two a day?

Not every player will spend money on playing games, but there are also players who will spend a lot of money on playing games and are not afraid to spend a lot of money.

Among the 100,000 people, if there are 10,000 or 20,000 such tyrant players, the game company will never lose money, but will only make a lot of money.

When Wu Xiang opened an Internet café, he often saw someone playing that kind of web game, and as soon as he opened a new server, he immediately recharged hundreds of thousands of yuan into the game, and he was fighting for the ranking that was the first in everything.

Being rich is capricious, and Wu Xiang sometimes really envy those local tyrant players who don't take money seriously.

However, due to the limitation of the number of people online on the game server, it has always been the reason why the game can be really popular and continue to develop, the new server of the game company is opened one after another, and the local tyrants also appear one after another, but they are just a flash in the pan.

The reason is also because there are too few people playing in the server, and the local tyrant spends money to smash the god costume, which makes the local tyrant unbearable, and the civilian player feels that no matter how hard he tries, he can't play the local tyrant player, so he AFK and no longer plays, and the guide zhì server soon became a ghost suit.

The operation of the Star Network server game platform will definitely break this shortcoming.

As long as the game is hosted on the Starnet server platform, the players of the game will interact in the same server, and there will be no diversion of players to other servers to reduce the load on the server.

Today, the number of people online at the same time has always been between six or seven million, and the number of people online at the same time has exceeded 10 million during the peak period.

It also means that the installed capacity of Starnet's star media system exceeds 10 million units.

After the re-installation service, the waveguide signal source continued to radiate outward, and the satellite network is truly changing with each passing day and developing rapidly.

The apocalyptic catastrophe of community games has glued countless players who love survival adventure games, and the launch of Community Star Catalyst has made countless business-sensitive merchants pour into the community map, wanting to make a lot of money in business with the help of Star Catalyst, a three-dimensional shopping platform.

In order to conform to the synchronization of the community map and the real map, Starnet has also specially established the Star Catalyst Legal Network Business Department, referred to as the Commercial Law Department.

Since the community is a map realized by real-world ingestion and transformation technology, Wu Xiang set up a copyright protection law.

For example, a commercial street, a certain shop, or a large supermarket or shopping center in the community map, the real property owner or operator automatically obtains the copyright owner of the building in the community map.

If someone else wants to operate the business in the community, they must contact the copyright owner of the business in reality, obtain the permission of the copyright owner, and then apply to the Star Catalyst Legal Network Business Department for business qualification review and registration.

This also needs to be carefully reviewed by the Star Catalyst Business Law Department of Star Network, and after it is believed that the other party does have that qualification, it will register the other party and issue the seller's version of the Star Catalyst watch.

It is not only those small businessmen who have a foresight, Ma Yundong, who made a fortune as an online shopping platform, is no less than a giant company in his investigation and discovery of Xingwang.

The team under Ma Yundong also made several discoveries by the engineers of the giant company, and the conclusions obtained were surprisingly consistent.

Although Ma Yundong didn't want to admit it, he finally had to admit that the general trend of the star network had become a success, and if there was no strong force to stop the development of the star network, there would be not only one Internet in the future, but also a place for the star network.

If the Internet does not solve the bandwidth limit, even if the bandwidth limit is solved, if there is no better service, Ma Yundong is not optimistic about the future of the Internet.

Since the rise of Starnet, many Internet tycoons have found that Starnet is not just a simple computer window system, but has the same as the Internet, multiple computers can be connected into a new local area network, this new network, more high-speed than the Internet, almost no bandwidth limitations, after the performance, they all want to take the opportunity to plug in.

It's a pity that the development of the star network is too fast, and after they found out that the core of the star network is not a pure window system to improve bandwidth performance, but it is very likely to become another Internet, another more advanced Internet, and they want to intervene, but it is too late.

SoftBank and Sequoia, two major international venture capitalists, have already taken a step ahead of them and invested in Starnet, and only two subsidiaries of Starnet, not Starnet's parent company.

With the huge funds and strong backgrounds of these two major international venture capitals as the backing, several networking companies that want to try to get a foot in the star network do not dare to reach out casually.

Rational people decided to retreat first, and after the same hope to invest in servers and star catalysts was rejected, they started the idea of a three-dimensional shopping platform for community star catalysts, and Ma Yundong, who started as an online shopping platform, was the fastest to make a move.

Relying on his real-life identity and status, Ma Yundong sent a commercial team to preemptively negotiate with those large supermarkets and shopping malls in several major first-tier cities across the country.

In those famous first-tier cities, most of the waveguide signals of the star network have not yet radiated, and when Ma Yundong's team suddenly came to the door, the operators or property owners of those supermarkets and shopping centers were still confused for a while, and at first they thought that Ma Yundong wanted to acquire their companies and properties.
