Chapter 42: Future Development Conference (4)
Jiang Wende did not give an opinion on this point, but the youngest Tong Rui raised his hand to speak, and her speech gave Wang Ziyan an interesting idea.
Because the thing Tong Rui said was called a shopping card, she said that she felt that this thing was closest to Wang Ziyan's idea.
Wang Ziyan's eyes lit up in an instant, Tong Rui had never experienced that kind of life, but he had experienced it. In that era, as long as the phone was charged, the card was rich, and you didn't need to carry cash everywhere, it couldn't be more cute.
After the customer successfully purchases the stored value gift card, he or she can log in to the Alipay page at any time to bind and activate, and the corresponding amount will be displayed in the Alipay background after the binding is activated.
This requires that after the prepaid card is sold, the transaction data is immediately uploaded to the database and waiting for the customer's activation binding.
Alipay needs to develop an online payment and cashier system for supermarkets and shopping malls in a timely manner to enable timely data exchange.
Customers can use this stored value card or Alipay account to make purchases in supermarkets, shopping malls and stores that use Alipay, and they can also use Alipay account to shop online on Alibaba.
If this can be achieved, then there will be a unified set of payment channels for all of its properties, even including hotels.
Of course, a sound and secure payment mechanism is still necessary, otherwise it will be embarrassing to lose funds.
The more Wang Ziyan spoke, the more excited he became, and even began to dance.
Wang Ziyan looked at the document in his hand, and after a while, he continued to the people who were discussing: "Now that the idea is there, let's improve it, and then see if it can be realized." As for technical issues, to poach people, a large number of poaching people, do not be afraid of spending money, talent is the most valuable. ”
"All you have to do now is refine your team and then give me the operational plan, and I'll sign off and put the money in. No problem, right?"
Ji Xingwang and the others glanced at each other and said with a smile: "No problem!"
Wang Ziyan pondered for a moment, and then said, "The rest, let's not discuss it today." You research first, especially online payment and network completely, these things are not in a hurry, and after you get the office location, we will start to deal with it. ”
After saying this, Wang Ziyan picked up a folder marked with the words "Yunlian World" and said with a smile: "You have also seen that so many of the projects I just mentioned are actually based on the Internet. In the future, we will not only operate globally in TT, search engines, e-commerce, payment software, etc. In order to avoid duplicate construction and waste of financial resources, I plan to integrate the server projects of various companies to form a professional server architecture company to provide global server services to various companies in the form of leasing. I believe everyone understands the significance of this, so I won't say more. ”
Wang Ziyan continued: "There is another one, antivirus software. Antivirus software and computer system manager, to be exact. In addition to providing security protection for the payment system, these two things are also bound to TT, with antivirus, system acceleration, vulnerability fixing, real-time protection, network speed protection, computer clinic, health assistant, desktop organization, document protection and other functions. ”
"Of course, in the current Internet environment, there is no problem with antivirus software, but the computer system manager is more reluctant. ”
Jiang Wende thought for a while and said, "This is fully functional, and the fee is very expensive, right?"
Wang Ziyan shook his head solemnly and said, "No, we do it for free!
Jiang Wende looked at him in surprise and asked, "Free? It's completely free?
Wang Ziyan knocked on the table and asked: "TV stations have to pay film dealers for TV dramas, they don't charge the audience, the audience only pays for the use of cable TV, and the programs received by the antenna are not charged." How do these TV stations make money, don't you know?"
Jiang Wende said at this time: "The TV station collects money from advertisers, and we can also collect money from advertisers?"
Wang Ziyan looked at him and said: "Why not? We only need to pop up a dialog box every time the computer is turned on, telling the user that this boot has been used for 50 seconds, what things affect the boot speed, how many computers have been beaten, and which accessories can be upgraded to improve the user experience, so that you can charge a fee like a hardware manufacturer." And then you can put a picture in this dialog box, like we put an advertisement for PetroChina, and then we can charge them. ”
Jiang Wende nodded, thought for a while, and then said, "You mean, seize the market through the free model and make a profit through advertising?"
Wang Ziyan nodded, and said very stinky: "Now the price of computers has been reduced a lot, and in a few years, computers will become popular, and I think there must be 20 million units." Even if we only take half of it, we can get a lot of advertising dollars. ”
Wang Ziyan raised his hand and looked at his watch, and found that it was dinner time, so he closed the computer and looked at everyone and said with a smile: "What I need to emphasize here is that the development plan of TT should be promoted immediately, and at present, our communication is mainly through mobile phones, phone calls and emails, which cannot be very good for fast and efficient office communication." TT Enterprise is the best service for us. ”
"One of the things I want to emphasize here is to take a closer look at these things, turn the ideas into reality, and then patent them. The emphasis is on the word patent, you must pay attention to the future of the Internet to survive, in fact, is the competition of patents, who has more patents, who can make money, in order to survive. ”
Everyone nodded in understanding.
"Okay, let's talk about Starlight Culture. ”
As he spoke, Wang Ziyan walked to the edge of his suitcase, took out a tape recorder and a few cassette tapes from it, and then selected a disc from the middle and put it in, and then pressed the play button.
These are the tapes he specially recorded, a total of four cassettes and 8 songs.
The first song is "Drunk for a Thousand Years", followed by several specially selected songs, all of which were best-selling hits between 1998 and 2000 and have been circulating for decades.
After listening to one tape, I changed another.
Then Wang Ziyan paused the song, and then looked at everyone with a smile: I have hundreds of songs of similar level in my hands, some of which I have collected in the past two years, and some of which I have written myself, and there may be more in the future. In addition, I have a lot of movie scripts and TV series scripts in my hand, and I have found someone to read them, and they are all very good scripts. ”
"I have so many resources in my hands, I must make use of them, and I can't sell them to others for much money, so it's better for us to do it ourselves. These songs and scripts are enough for us to push more than double-digit stars, and I don't think I need to emphasize too much about what these stars can bring us. ”
"This includes three plans, one is the star-making factory, similar to TVB's artist training class, the second is a singing talent show, similar to the Hong Kong Sister Contest in Hong Kong or the National Young Singer TV Grand Prix in the mainland, and the third is in terms of film and television dramas, I have three TV drama scripts and four movie scripts in my hands, and I am ready to invest in filming these scripts. ”
"And based on the copyrights of these songs, we can't waste the copyrights of the songs that were recovered from the outside with the release of the album. So I came up with the idea of embedding a music website and a video website in my browser. At the same time, we can also develop a music player to support music playback. ”
"So, this project also needs to be taken care of. ”
"Now, let's go back to the billion users we just talked about. ”
"If you want to have users, you need to have a PC, and if you want to have a PC, you need to have hardware. ”
Everyone now knew that the real point was coming, so they all cheered up and got serious.
Wang Ziyan drank a glass of water, then switched to a PPT, clicked a large circle of logo on the curtain with a telescopic rod, and asked seriously: "I don't know if you know, how many computer assembly factories are there in the world?"
"IBM, Dell, New Blue, Apple, Lenovo, Wangma, Haihua, Shida, Great Wall, Inspur, and some computer brands from Dongying. The list goes on, and I'm sure there will be more brands popping up in the future. ”
"But when we break it down, the computer is really a bunch of hardware plus an operating system, and that's it. What's the most important thing about this? It's nothing more than a CPU, a graphics card, a motherboard, and so on, and everything else that an electronics factory has the ability to develop. But what are the companies that make CPUs??Intel, AMD, Cyrix, NexGen, IDT, and VIA, and that's all it seems to be for now. Intel and AMD focus on mid-to-high-end CPUs, Cyrix and NexGen focus on low-end CPUs, and IDT and VIA are all new processor projects. And what about GPUs, even less, the main chip and technology providers are none other than NVIDIA and ATI. ”
"You see, in fact, the lifeblood of the PC is in the hands of these companies, we don't use Microsoft, but also Linux, System V, BSD, etc., and most of them are free. But what about the hardware?"
"As long as the price of Intel and AMD rises, the price of computers will rise, because you have no alternative to choose. ”
"And now Cyrix and NexGen are almost unable to survive, that is to say, being acquired is the ultimate fate of these two companies, and IDT does not have its own core technology, and it is estimated that it will not be able to avoid the fate of being swallowed by whales. ”
"So, I'm going to invest in an electronics company, and my main business directions include hardware equipment research and development, operating system research and development, network relay equipment and entertainment chains. This is the program number 10, and there is no registered company yet, so how to implement it depends on your efforts. ”
"Hardware devices include mobile products and PC business, mainly involving computers, mobile phones and tablets. Among them, the computer business and OS development business are the main ones. I am going to get involved in the computer business, and the reasons and operation methods are all in the planning, and you will come up with a corresponding plan for me after discussion. ”
"The computer business involves a variety of hardware, and our current main business direction is the mainland, while the hardware equipment mainly relies on imports. In the early stage, I accepted that all hardware was purchased, but I expect that in the future, our CPUs, GPUs, motherboards, storage hardware, etc. will be able to achieve self-production, which I think you should be able to understand. As for how to do it, how much investment is needed, I need you to give me the corresponding development plan. ”
"About the OS development business,Linux,Give me full use of it.,Complete the sinicization as soon as possible.。 I got the news that Microsoft Memphis has entered the development stage, this version of the operating system will be better than Windows 95, will mix 16-bit/32-bit Windows operating system, and fully integrate Internet standards to unify and simplify the desktop with Internet technology. I expect its official release to be around mid-'98. ”
At this time, Jiang Wende spoke: "Boss, there is a problem. ”
Wang Ziyan looked at him and motioned for him to continue.
Jiang Wende smiled: "I just looked through your plan, we are developing a comprehensive operating system that adopts an "object-oriented operating system", in fact, this is a UNIX-like operating system. Steve's Miller Columns from NeXT Software is the "Object-Oriented Operating System Class", which is also a UNIX operating system. And I've been told that Steve is working on a more Windows-based beta and that it's getting closer to launch. ”
Wang Ziyan frowned, he remembered something, Steve Jobs will return to Apple in December, and Mac OS 8.0 will be officially released in the middle of next year. So he asked, "Well, it doesn't matter, it doesn't really matter which version of the UNIX operating system you're based on. I wonder how long it will take to get the test version done?"
Jiang Wende also thought about it before saying: "If there is no problem with the funds, dig some people from Silicon Valley and come back, and I personally think that the beta version will be launched around April next year." If you can feel that it has been a long time and there are enough manpower, the beta version of ANT OS can be launched before the Spring Festival, and the official version is expected to be launched in May. ”
Ant OS is the name given to the system by Wang Ziyan, and the Chinese name is Ant System.
Wang Ziyan nodded and said, "You give me a plan, give me a budget, and I am responsible for providing financial support." ”
Jiang Wende glanced at everyone else, then nodded and said, "Okay, we'll send you an email after we discuss it, and then call you back." ”
Wang Ziyan took a sip of water and said softly: "Okay, that's all I have to say." The advance of 100 million US dollars, about 800 million Hong Kong dollars, will be credited to my account before I leave Hong Kong on the 25th. The company will entrust it to you, my ability is limited, and I can only do a good job of financial security for you at present.
Wang Ziyan looked at everyone again: "Hantang software should be developed as soon as possible, and our instant messaging software should be developed as soon as possible, and our work will depend on this in the future, so we must pay attention." ”
"You people, for the time being, Ji Xingwang is the team leader, responsible for the overall control. Tomorrow we'll have an upfront planning meeting, and then I'll inject a sum of money into each company, about $3 million, and then we'll get to work. ”
A trace of excitement flashed in Ji Xingwang's eyes, and then he nodded and promised, "Okay, I know the boss, we won't disappoint you." ”
Wang Ziyan nodded approvingly, and said: "Arrange the things I said today, let's go find a place to play together in the evening, many of you are coming to Huating for the first time, I have a treat tonight, don't be polite." ”
"At 7 o'clock in the evening, Zijin Lou Restaurant, I'll wait for you to come, now let's disperse. Remember to dress up handsomely. ”
Everyone agreed with a bang and got up to say goodbye.
