However, the penguin is confronted by Yu Song, a prophet.

As the most popular mini-game in the last life, as long as it can be bound to WeChat, it can not only enhance the interaction value between users, but also greatly improve the stickiness of users.

Xie Tao didn't understand it very well, but Yu Song didn't expect him to understand it at once, as long as he could do what he explained.

"In this way, you keep an eye on the data of WeChat these days, and recruit several Flash technology developers at the same time, and it will be in place in a week, and I will give you a plan at that time. Yu Song commanded.

Xie Tao was curious, but he didn't ask, just nodded and agreed.

On January 1st, WeChat was officially launched, which was also the first step taken by Yu Song in his career.

The publicity did not stop because of this, but the focus of the publicity on the second day has changed, from Li Ci's new song to WeChat.

Not only that, but the main body of propaganda has also begun to slowly change.

The first to spontaneously promote WeChat was Li Ci's fans. In yesterday's post bar, two people sent out the interface of chatting with Li Ci.

At first, netizens didn't believe it.

It wasn't until Li Ci's verified Tieba account also sent the same screenshot that the matter was finally confirmed.

Li Ci's fans are naturally crazy, and the temptation to become WeChat friends with their idols is naturally great.

Even netizens know that such a probability is very small. But what if you become the next lucky one?

This kind of propaganda, Yu Song remembered that there was a name in his previous life, called tap water.

At around 12 noon, the number of downloads of WeChat has exceeded 300,000!

Xie Tao and Jiang Zheng didn't dare to think about this data, but it really happened.

The penguins soon learned of this data, and Ma Huateng called the senior management together again.

In two days, two high-level meetings were held in succession, which is hard to imagine in today's penguins.

In 2000, the penguin had already conquered the domestic instant messaging field, and the occasional challenger was easily defeated by it.

But now, it has a serious challenger.

"You've all read the data, what do you want to say?" asked Ma Huateng calmly.

"It's a lot better than when we started, and it's a dangerous opponent. ”

Some people are worried, and naturally some people ignore the threat of WeChat.

"I think we're still too worried. Now the domestic market has been completely occupied by us, as long as before next week, the launch of group chat and personal show function, WeChat will definitely die!"

Listening to these two completely opposite opinions, Ma Huateng fell into deep thought.

Ma Huateng is the top management of Penguin, and everyone is waiting for his decision.

"Pull all the staff, and within three days, I'm going to see new features go live!"

Penguins are now like a big enemy, and Baidu is not a small thing to see the excitement.

"I didn't expect this Wen123 and the Internet café housekeeper to make such a big move. Baidu's vice president gloated.

In one day, the number of registered users has exceeded 800,000, and it is expected to exceed one million by this evening!"

Hearing this data, Baidu's executives here gasped!

In today's era of the Internet, that's an astronomical number.

WeChat is a product, and there is only one evaluation from Baidu people, which is awesome.

"Don't be overly optimistic about WeChat, after all, WeChat doesn't care much about us, and it's the penguins that should be worried. The vice president's words made everyone laugh.

"What I care about the most is the product of Tieba! If Tieba can be used by us, relying on our search service, Tieba will definitely become the most popular and popular Internet community in China!"

The vice president's words made everyone present feel like an initiation.

The director who is responsible for launching new products is really embarrassed.

I thought that by relying on the MP3 download service developed by myself, I could put the post bar to death.

As a result, people's focus is not on the song at all, and the post bar is their trump card.

"It's better to do it like this, let's post it and MP3 download it together!"

The vice president hated iron and steel, "We must do it to post it and MP3, but how to do it?"

Now the domain era has come to the forefront with Tieba, and it is difficult for Baidu to surpass it from this aspect.

"The current post bar still has a weakness, that is, it does not have its own search service support, and the content is thin, we can start from this point. ”

Hearing this suggestion, the vice president's eyes lit up, this is the best proposal he heard tonight.

"Keep talking!"

"In the past two days, I have studied the post bar in detail, and the most popular of them is Li Ci bar, and the rest are not in the climate, we can set up a star post bar and let the stars settle in, so that it will definitely be able to surpass the post bar!"

The vice president's eyes lit up, this plan can be!

At this time, someone said, "I checked, this post bar is not bound to Longtang, the other party has registered a domain name." In other words, they are ready to make Tieba a separate brand. ”

For Song, Longtang is just a forum for himself to try his hand, how can he bind something as powerful as Tieba to it.

Yu Song now only needs to combine the search function of Wen123 with Tieba, then the time for the development of Tieba Express has come.

The person in charge of development at Baidu sighed, "This domain company is not simple, and the domain name of Tieba has been registered by them, so it is very passive for us." It seems that our company's products can no longer be called stickers. ”

Someone objected, "It's not very difficult to make a sticker, and besides, they are a small company, they haven't found a profit model yet, as long as we can make a similar product immediately, it will definitely fall down immediately." ”

The vice president shook his head, "You're thinking too simply. For such an emerging thing as Tieba, as long as venture capital is interested and has the support of capital, it is difficult to find benefits from Tieba. ”

After listening to the vice president's words, the people present were speechless.

The Internet seems to be fighting for technology and creativity, but in the final analysis, capital is the driving force.

Behind the Internet tycoon in the previous life, there is no longer this large amount of capital support, and without the help of capital, it is difficult for Internet companies to start.

Now the post bar can not be compared with the Baidu box, but once it gets the support of capital, the post bar will definitely have a period of rapid development.

As long as there is no big mistake in the post bar, the B round and C round will definitely be supported by more capital, and then the two will be compared, and Baidu may not be able to take advantage of it.

"I think we can get in touch with the domain company first and talk about cooperation... Or something about acquisitions. "Someone proposed.

The vice president asked the man, "What do you think would be the right price to buy them now?"

The man thought for a moment, "Longtang is not very valuable, mainly because of the price of the sticker, I think according to the current market, the price of the sticker is estimated at about 800 to 10 million." But the price we gave him must be much lower.

After all, their company has just been established, and their knowledge of the product is definitely not enough, and their expectations are not too high. As long as we show enough sincerity, I don't think they will care too much about the price. ”

The vice president thought for a moment, "Okay, I'll leave this matter to you." ”

Back at Splendid in the evening, Yu Song received an email from Zhu Qi, claiming to be Baidu's investment director.

The content of the email is very concise, Baidu is more optimistic about the development of the post bar, there is a tendency to acquire, and I want to make an appointment with Yu Song to talk about it.

Yu Song's reply is also very simple, the acquisition is not negotiable, only accepts financing, only 10% of the shares are sold in the early stage, and Baidu will send an email after valuing the value, and then consider it after seeing the valuation.

Yu Song is very clear about the development prospects of the post bar, and now it is packaged for sale at this time, that is, there is a problem with the brain.

As for financing, Yu Song is really short of money. I said before that I wanted to become my own capital, but now that I think about it, it's really a bit whimsical.

Since you can't do it yourself, then the introduction of capital is naturally the best means.

However, Yu Song also knows that he can't dilute too many shares in the early stage, which will cause great hidden dangers to his future.

As for what kind of valuation Baidu will give him, Yu Song didn't think much about it. The price they are offering now must be very low, and Yu Song only wants to dry them for a few days now.

Zhu Qi opened Yu Song's email for the first time, and after reading it, he was shocked, this refusal was too decisive!

In the Internet area, Zhu Qi has also been doing it for many years. In general, most of the Internet people have technology, but unfortunately there are very few who have a far-sighted vision.

Therefore, there are few people who can really become Internet bigwigs.

After all, in the current Internet market, the start is the most difficult. Once capital is attracted, most people are willing to give up a certain amount of shares in order to get the favor of capital.

What's more, they dared to give up 51% of their shares in the A round, just for the benefit of hundreds of thousands or millions.

As a result, what you may lose in the future is tens, if not hundreds, times what you get now.

The more Zhu Qi thinks about the moon, he feels that the other party is not simple, this guy must be very optimistic about the prospects of the post bar, otherwise he would not be so fearless.

This person is not simple!

...

When Penguin and Baidu were busy, Yu Song was idle.

Over there, Xie Tao is busy developing a new project, WeChat Farm.

The business of Internet cafes is getting better and better, and the income is increasing day by day.

As for Li Ci, he received an invitation to the Spring Festival Gala, and everything was in Song's plan.

Li Ci, who received the news, rushed home non-stop, saying that he wanted to give good news to his parents.

Before leaving, Li found Yu Song and said a lot of words of gratitude. But there is one meaning in and out of the words.

I'm going to the Spring Festival Gala, Brother Song, you must give me a whole awesome song!

After getting Yu Song's assurance, Li Ci went home with peace of mind.

Li Ci got such an opportunity, and Yu Song naturally sent people to hype it up.

Wen123, the Internet café housekeeper and the water army are three-pronged, and in half a day, the news that Li Ci is going to the Spring Festival Gala has spread throughout the Internet world.
