Chen Tianqiao and his wife Luo Qianqian looked at each other for a long time, and finally looked at each other and nodded secretly. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Mr. Ma, we agree to your conditions!" Chen Tianqiao said.

Ma Huateng's face was overjoyed, and he said: "Okay, let's sign the contract as soon as possible, and then start promoting "Legend"!"

Luo Qianqian's eyes rolled at this time, and she asked: "Mr. Ma, the Hongnian Internet Cafe Alliance is the property of Mr. Henry Williams, right?" I think that if every Internet café can install "Legend", this game will definitely become popular immediately!"

"ICQ and the Hongnian Internet Café Alliance are not the same company, but the Hongnian Internet Café Alliance is indeed Henry Williams' property. This Internet café alliance is a chain of Internet cafes established by Hongnian Technology Company with Hongnian Computer as a shareholder and local people, and there are about 3,000 Internet cafes in the country......" Ma Huateng looked at them and said with a smile, "Don't worry, I will talk to Mr. Williams and ask him to help us!"

"That's great!" Chen Tianqiao said excitedly.

After sending Ma Huateng away, Chen Tianqiao and his wife looked at each other excitedly.

"Tianqiao, this time, Shanda is really going to soar!!" Luo Qianqian said.

"Hmm!" Chen Tianqiao nodded heavily, a stone fell to the ground in his heart, and he was full of hope for the future!

"However, it's a bit strange that we have also looked for ICQ before, and it seems that they are not interested in our game, but this time they took the initiative to invest in us!" Chen Tianqiao wondered.

Luo Qianqian laughed, "Have you seen the recent news?"

"What news? I'm so busy right now, how can I still have time to watch the news......" Chen Tianqiao shook his head.

Luo Qianqian smiled and said simply: "Yesterday, Henry Williams went to Shenzhen!"

"Henry Williams went to Shenzhen?" Chen Tianqiao muttered and repeated, and suddenly seemed to suddenly realize, "Could it be ......?"

"That's right!" Luo Qianqian said with a smile, "It must be Henry Williams who took a fancy to our Shanda Network Company and ordered Ma Huateng to come and invest in us!"

"Well, it should be like this!" Chen Tianqiao nodded, and suddenly laughed, "It seems that Henry Williams is really discerning!!"

When Luo Qianqian heard this, she couldn't help but "flutter" and laughed out loud, "Are you exaggerating yourself in disguise?"

"Originally, I firmly believe that "Legend" will be a success!"

……

The next day, Ma Huateng came to Shanda Network again, and this time, the two sides signed a contract directly.

After the signing was completed, Ma Huateng said: "Mr. Chen, the headquarters of Shanda Network Company does not have anything precious, so I suggest that it is best to move to Shenzhen and stay in the same city with the parent company ICQ, so as to facilitate the management and operation of the company!"

"Okay, that's fine. Chen Tianqiao said that since the parent company ICQ has asked for this, Shanda Network naturally has no reason to refuse.

At the beginning of May, Shanda Network moved to Shenzhen.

Ma Huateng took Chen Tianqiao and his wife to ICQ to meet Henry.

"Hello, Mr. Williams!" Mr. and Mrs. Chen Tianqiao said in unison.

"Please take a seat!" Henry couldn't help but look at the legendary figures in his previous life, Chen Tianqiao was not tall, slightly fat, and had a calm personality. And his wife Luo Qianqian has a good figure, a handsome face, high knowledge, and a beautiful temperament.

Henry wasn't interested in his subordinate's wife, just glanced at it, then turned his head to look at Chen Tianqiao, and asked, "Chen Tianqiao, now that the funds are available, how do you plan to promote the game?"

"Mr. Williams, I think the game was free to start out, which attracted a lot of players. After that, when there are more players and they like the game, we will charge for it!"

"Very good, please continue!" Henry nodded in satisfaction.

"Yes, Mr. Williams. The charging model of Legends is very different from that of traditional games, and Legends is charged according to the length of time the game has been played!

Ma Huateng was a little dumbfounded on the side, "Mr. Chen, are you not mistaken, you will be charged according to the length of the game?"

"Yes, that's right, you pay according to the length of the game!!"

Chen Tianqiao replied in a very affirmative tone, and at the same time, looking at Henry, Ma Huateng's questioning has a point, Henry is the real decision-maker!

Bang Bang Bang !!

Henry applauded and smiled, "Very good, almost coincides with me!"

As he spoke, Henry handed Chen Tianqiao and Ma Huateng a document each, entitled "On the Operation Model of Legend". It not only contains what Chen Tianqiao just said, but also more detailed, because China's Internet e-commerce and third-party payment market is immature, so that most Chinese netizens do not know how to use PayPal. Therefore, although you can buy game time directly through PayPal, you still need to launch a "game point card". The game card designed by Henry is an ordinary card with an account number on it, and the password is set by the player himself. The card is sold by local Internet cafes, and players who do not use PayPal can find Internet cafes to help them top up if they want to top up. In fact, the "game point card" is a disguised "offline PayPal", and the account and password of the "game point card" can be used directly to log in to the PayPal system.

PayPal The only difference is that the Internet café can get a commission! Otherwise, the Internet café would not be happy to be busy in vain......

Henry's ambition is huge, using the "game point card", you can train all "legend" players to become PayPal users, and not only that, "game point card" solves the current payment problem, which is bound to make other game companies choose this way, which leads to all gamers may become PayPal users, if Ma Yun launches Alipay in the future, I really don't know how he can play?

Chen Tianqiao and Ma Huateng are both smart people, and after reading them, they are all deeply impressed! The three of them looked at Henry with different eyes, they have always heard in the past that Henry Williams is a peerless genius, and he still doesn't believe it, but when he sees it today, if he is really a genius, it is no wonder that he can become the richest man in the world!

"Mr. Williams, the game time can not only be purchased by the hour, but also yearly, monthly, weekly, this idea is very good! Yearly, the price of the monthly package is much cheaper, I believe that many people will choose these two ways, and in this way, we can quickly collect a lot of funds, with funds, we can go to South Korea to act as a game agent!!" Chen Tianqiao said excitedly.

"You can't always find Korean affiliate games, you want Korean online games to dominate the Chinese market?"

Henry shook his head, in his previous life, Shanda didn't have a decent game development team at all, and as a result, he couldn't represent a good game, so he was "dogged"!

When Henry said this, Chen Tianqiao's face turned slightly red, and it was very troublesome to represent games, and no one would be troublesome, right? Moreover, the risk of developing games is too great, what if gamers who have worked hard and spent a lot of money on development do not buy it? Isn't it a wasted water? Therefore, in China, there are not many companies that develop their own games! Henry knows that since "Legend" After the fire, one game company after another followed suit, and all went to South Korea to represent games, resulting in Chinese games being conquered by Korean games, while domestic games collapsed and collapsed......

Henry continued: "Acting for games is only for a while, how can you completely rely on other game companies to live? This is like pinning your hopes on other people, if one day the other party is unreliable, won't you be doomed?

"Mr. Williams, I have been taught, follow your lesson!" Chen Tianqiao couldn't help but bow his head and said in a deep voice.

Henry waved his hand and smiled, "It's already May, and it will take some time to prepare and publicize, probably ...... In July, "Legend" can be released, and then it will operate for free for a month, and it will start charging in August! Hongnian Internet Cafe Alliance, ICQ, PayPal have all informed them, you then go to contact them, a total of cooperation!"

"Yes!" Chen Tianqiao nodded in response.

"Okay, then let's do it, you just arrived in Shenzhen, you're tired of traveling, let's go back and rest first!"

"Thank you, Mr. Williams!"

Henry watched them go, and then turned on his computer to surf the Internet. At this moment, Henry wants to build a Chinese station, but lacks a team. And he is now looking for a target. At the same time, he also has an understanding of the ups and downs of China's Internet in recent years!

"There is a golden house in the book, and there is Yan Ruyu in the book!"

In 1988, the Golden House website was the most famous, and it was claimed that "if you don't know the Golden Book House when you read books on the Internet, it would be in vain to call it a networm"! At that time, the Golden House had already monopolized the Chinese market, and if there was no accident, I am afraid that there would be no previous life! Unfortunately, the intervention of capital changed the trajectory of fate.

In December 1999, Doremi acquired 16 of the top 20 personal websites in NetEase's personal website ranking for 4 million yuan. Including the Golden Book House, China Football Network, Haikuo Sky Download, Xiaolin Guangji and other well-known domestic websites. After the acquisition of the Golden Book House, out of copyright considerations, it did not dare to be too free to plagiarize and copy in operation, and many readable works could not be included in it, but there were not many originals, resulting in the gradual loss of readers, and the initiative to give up the hegemony of the online book site.

Rich people are reserved, and they talk about what is genuine in China, and they end up pitting themselves to death.

At this time, Boku was established in Silicon Valley, with American industrial capital and deep pockets, as soon as he came to China, he carried out overwhelming advertising in major media, and then cooperated with China Youth Publishing House, Peking University and other units to launch activities such as "Walking the Yellow River" and "Dunhuang Tour", creating a big momentum, and later in addition to acquiring a large number of electronic copyrights of works, in the name of cultivating China's "Stephen King", signed contracts with a large number of writers such as Wang Shuo and Chen Cun. However, Boku's operating model is to pay for downloading and reading for a fee, and it is naturally out of place in China's Internet environment when piracy is common, so it will go out of business at the end of the year. The most important thing is that in 1999, there were not many Chinese netizens, and there was no convenient payment method! Henry launched the "offline PayPal" point card this time, which is different, first of all, it can solve the payment problem, and secondly, the number of netizens in 2001 has increased significantly, and the conditions for paid reading are ripe.

The website that Henry is currently browsing is "Dragon Sky", and "Dragon Sky" quickly replenishes the space left by the Golden Book House by relying on the stable space and the popularity accumulated in the Western Continent BBS, and has become the well-deserved boss of the Fantasy Book Station!

At present, with the increase of traffic, Longkong's server resources are insufficient, and the access speed is getting slower and slower, which has begun to be unbearable, which has also made its popularity slowly decline, and its leading big brother status has been challenged more and more.

In order to get out of the predicament, Dragon Sky has two development directions, one is to invest money in the purchase of new servers and expand the Longkong website, so as to maintain the monopoly advantage on the Internet, but the prospect is unclear; As for the result, Henry naturally knew that the sky of the dragon chose the latter, which can be said to be a handover!

"The founder's name seems to be Bao Jianfeng, and it would be best for the original founding team to run the company......" Henry muttered.

Henry also often browsed in his previous life, in addition, as an engineer, he also specially studied the second version of the revised version of the starting point website, because this revision is the most successful revision in the history of online literature, and other stations have plagiarized, almost 80% of the interface is the same as the starting point. At the same time, Henry also witnessed the rise of the starting point. The early starting point was full of dangers many times, but each time it was turned around by a best-selling book! The transfer turmoil in October 2003 can be said to be the most serious crisis since the establishment of the starting point. When the VIP road at the starting point was in a desperate situation, the toad who had just wandered to the starting point saved the starting point. The hot sale of "Tianpeng Vertical" brought a large number of members to the starting point, and finally survived the difficulties.

In 2004, the online game novel craze quietly arrived and dominated the new book list, so that other types of new books were completely lost, so they were quietly poached by other websites. And the reason why these online game books are so powerful is actually behind the scenes, because the competitors at the starting point uniformly teach new authors how to write online games and how to hit the list, and all these works can basically be on the new book list!!

Hidden arrows are hard to defend against!

Too many online game novels cause aesthetic fatigue, and naturally VIP subscriptions are low. However, at this moment, "Shenglong Dao" was born out of thin air -- "As soon as Shenglong comes out, who competes for the peak", from the day Shenglong was put on the shelves, it has constantly refreshed the records of the starting point VIP! After that, Shanda acquired the starting point, crushed other stations with powerful and unparalleled financial resources, and blatantly said that if you don't accept it, you will do it, accept your girl, and finally dominate the Internet literature!

Henry soon found Blade on the internet and joined his ICQ book group. No way, Bao Jianfeng was a bit awesome in 2001, and he happened to create the web novel "The Legend of the Magic Knight Hero", which became one of the super popular works of early online fantasy literature.

"Hello, are you the edge of the sword?!"

Henry's ICQ name is Williams, and there are many people around the world who take this name for ICQ, and there are many people in China, just like many people in previous lives changed their ID to "Bill Gates".

"Yes, I'm Bao Jianfeng, and you are welcome to join the "Legend of the Magic Knight Heroes" book friend group!"

At this time, a video pop-up message will be displayed on the ICQ.

Bao Jianfeng hesitated suddenly, this one started the video without saying a word, is it appropriate?

Bao Jianfeng thought about it, and finally opened the video. However, as soon as he saw the face in the video, Bao Jianfeng was stunned.

"You, you're Henry Williams?" At this point, Swordblade was so shocked that he couldn't even speak coherently.

"That's right, it's me. Henry smiled at him.

"Hello, Mr. Williams, it's my pleasure to have a video chat with you!

"Yes!" Henry nodded, "Here's the thing, I'm going to set up a Chinese station, and I'm going to invite you to join ......"

Bao Jianfeng was shocked at this time, and thought to himself, my book is so well written, even the richest man in the world likes to read it (Henry said he hasn't read it), and he personally came to dig himself, so moved, really moved, so he rushed to Henry Williams's attitude of Corporal Lixian, and my next new book will only be published on their website!!

Bao Jianfeng's gaze suddenly became very determined.

"Bao Jianfeng, can you bring some of your like-minded friends along?"

"No problem, Mr. Williams, don't worry, I know a lot of friends and are planning to set up a fantasy literature club together!"

"Hehe, that's good, then pull them all over! Here's my phone number: xxxxxxxxx. Call me when you're ready!"

"Okay!"

The video call ends.

Bao Jianfeng looked excited and excited, and hurriedly picked up his phone and began to call his friend......
