Chapter 324: Let's Say I Set a Small Goal (3/10)
Jiang Chunhui went out with the plan. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Chen Chunxiang, as his deputy, also walked out.
Yang Ting hurriedly asked, "Director, do you really want to open for free?"
"Well, that's pretty clear. Zhang Wei looked at him with a smile, "You can just implement it." ”
Ding Chao suggested: " I think in fact, our company is not unable to make money, director, I think so, it is not impossible to absorb users for free, we do not charge on the surface, but we can launch a mailbox level, for example, the first-level mailbox does not need money to use for free, but the mailbox with a larger capacity needs to be upgraded, for example, it takes three dollars a month to use the second-level mailbox, and the third-level mailbox needs five dollars a month, these are small money, those users should be willing to spend money for a larger mailbox capacity, what do you think, director?"
Luo Yansheng agreed: "This is a good idea, I think it is feasible." ”
Zhang Wei shook his head and refused: " We are not deception, since we promise that the mailbox is free and will never make a mailbox level charge, I said that we want to absorb users for free, and there will definitely be users as for the mailbox level, but not to increase the level with fees, but to use the online time and the length of sending and receiving emails, and maybe the number of clicks on ads, you have to remember that users are not fools, and don't underestimate the wisdom of users, I can say very responsibly, now the charging websites are not long-lasting, Yinghaiwei you all know, right? Look, it won't be long before you're sure to get into trouble, and free is king. ”
These people's money-making thinking is too old, Zhang Wei didn't bother to explain to them for a long time, directly issued an order for everyone to work, and then returned to the office, and now he wants to roughly write how the website should be designed to be beautiful and practical, how the email should have an advantage over similar products, and what effect should be achieved by the configuration of servers and other equipment.
After Zhang Wei left, several people in the conference room started to talk.
"Alas, free operation, alas!" Luo Yansheng sighed twice.
Yang Ting shook his head, "It's too inconsiderate." ”
The female technician frowned and said, "Can this new company be sustained?"
"If you don't make user money, the company will be dead!" Ding Chao said helplessly.
"The director also said just now that you can also make money from advertising space. Luo Yansheng analyzed it and said: "Although I am not optimistic about how much money can be made from advertising space, but the director's family is rich, at least the company can't do it in a short time, so let's work hard." ”
Yang Ting was silent for a while, and said, "Is it possible to invest in the company if you have any money?"
Ding Chao hung his head and said: "I hope the company can develop better and better." ”
The company is related to their future, they definitely want the company to get better and better, although they are very unconfident now, but they signed a contract before, and they can only do it.
……
Office area.
Jiang Chunhui and Chen Chunxiang gathered a large number of technical personnel, because this involves free domain names, they are only the people responsible for the operation, and they don't know if they can do it, so they must first ask these professional technicians.
Chen Chunxiang posted Zhang Wei's plan on the bulletin board, "The director just made a suggestion, to make a free domain name, can you do it with your technology?"
Everyone did not answer immediately, but crowded to the bulletin board to see the specific content, and many people looked more and more ugly.
"Free... Free?"
"Isn't that fooling around?"
"This can attract users, but how can the company make money?"
"What's the use of absorbing more users? Continue to spend money on them and then give users free services? How rich does the director dare to do this? Is this going to subvert the business model of the entire Chinese Internet?"
"It's so speechless!"
"It's just that the director's family is so rich that they dare to burn money to play like this!"
"Actually, I think you can give it a try, and it is also beneficial to have more users. ”
"What's the benefit? You can see clearly, is it completely free? If there are more users, it will only burn more money, server maintenance equipment, etc., and what does not need money? Also, this free domain name system, if there are more users, it will burn money! I don't mean that it is not good to absorb users for free, have you ever thought about it, the company is not profitable and blindly throws money, not to mention growing, it is difficult to maintain, right?"
Now that Yahu is worth tens of billions of dollars, why can't the plan given by the director work? Of course, China's national conditions may be different, and you have to try it to find out. ”
"I don't think so. ”
"How to say it, I vaguely feel that it is not so simple, but reason tells me that this will fail, China is different from the US imperialists, there are many capitalists on the US imperialists, they think that this Yahu has the potential to keep throwing money and burning money into it, and the market value is going up, but do you know how much money Yahu made last year? 90,000 US dollars, yes, you heard it right, a company worth tens of billions of US dollars only earned 90,000 US dollars a year! But no matter what, the director has this courage to operate Yahu for free is still worthy of admiration. ”
"Also, the director's family has money, I heard people say when I was in Xiangjiang, his family still has shares in Yahu, although our company's business project is not a search engine, but maybe the director's purpose is to learn from Yahu to attract many investors? Think about it, if someone smashes our company like throwing money at Yahu, our company may be able to become China's Internet giant!"
"This is also true, if someone is willing to raise a large amount of money, our company can also develop and grow, since the director has tasted the sweetness of Yahu, maybe there is a certainty that we can attract investors? If we really attract investors from the US imperialists, then our company will be developed, and there is hope to become the next Yahu!
"How many Internet users are there in the US imperialists? How many Internet users are there in China? Do you think those investors are stupid? Investment depends on market share, China has a total of only 620,000 Internet users, and it is impossible to use our company's email address, right? Do you think there will be anyone who will invest?"
Everyone argued, some people thought that Zhang Wei could try this, and some people thought that he was purely burning money to play.
Jiang Chunhui was silent for a while and did not speak, it is true that he is not very optimistic about doing it for free, but if it is really like what these technicians say, what if he is favored by investors? Zhang Wei's fame is very big in Xiangjiang, and China Buffett has created miracles again and again, maybe he can really attract investors?
……
In the afternoon, I just had dinner.
Zhang Wei was about to go back to the office when Jiang Chunhui stopped him, "Director?"
"Have you asked?" Zhang Wei stopped.
Yang Ting, Ding Chao and others also looked at it, can these technicians do the free domain name system?
Jiang Chunhui seemed to be a little anxious and asked, "Did you contact an investor to invest in our company?"
"Investors? Yes, there is one. Zhang Wei replied unexpectedly.
Jiang Chunhui's face was happy, and he said: "As long as our free mailbox can attract 50,000 users, I will use confidence to persuade investors to invest more than 5 million!"
Zhang Weidao: "50,000 users?"
Jiang Chunhui thought there was a difficulty, and said, "Is it a lot?"
Zhang Wei got up, shook his head and said, "We have to set a small goal first. ”
"Little target?" Jiang Chunhui wondered.
More than a dozen people in the office area came to look at it.
Zhang Wei smiled: "Let's say I will absorb 10 million users in five years. ”
Jiang Chunhui almost fainted!
Yang Ting and Ding Chao were dumbfounded!
More than a dozen people present are all mouthful of old blood, your sister! This is called a small goal? This is called wishful thinking, is it okay? China has a total of only 620,000 Internet users, and you want to absorb 10 million fucking users in five years?
Speechless, speechless, everyone was speechless.
"That one, Superintendent. Jiang Chunhui was drenched in cold sweat and said: "Let's talk about the free domain name system first, I asked the technicians just now, and they said that although it is a little difficult, it is not a big problem." ”
Zhang Wei was very satisfied and said, "Just make it if you can do it." ”
Jiang Chunhui said again: "Considering the high requirements of your web design, I specially called from Xiangjiang to find two design masters, you see ......."
Zhang Dawei is happy, now he is in the time of seeking talents, but he didn't expect Jiang Chunhui to have this way, and immediately promised: "I want people, even if you have a way, even if you have a way, I want twenty." ”
"By the way, how much did the company invest in the early stage?" Jiang Chunhui asked, "If according to your requirements, the equipment in Xiangjiang will definitely not be enough, and the place here is too small, so you must change the office space." ”
Zhang Wei thought for a moment and said, "I'll give you 10 million first." ”
"Ten million, that's too little!" Jiang Chunhui exclaimed.
Zhang Wei said: "10 million is just for you to buy equipment, as for the rest of the money, we will talk about it when the equipment arrives." ”
"Okay, okay. Jiang Chunhui was a little helpless and said: "By the way, let's not joke, the small goal is 50,000 users, okay?"
Zhang Wei couldn't cry or laugh, waved his hand casually and walked towards the office.
It's not a problem to ask for money, but you can't fund it yourself!
In the later generations, the network company was constrained too much, and Zhang Wei knew very well what kind of partner he should pull, and in the later generations, apart from Ahri Baba, which network company would not have a national background? Therefore, he had already thought about pulling Wang Dongliang to join the shares, of course, the shares would definitely not be given too much, at most 10 to 20 percent at most, and any more would be free to be discussed.
As soon as Zhang Wei walked to the door of the office, there was a whisper of everyone behind him.
"The director just said that 10 million users is still a small goal. ”
"Are you kidding, do you understand? Just now, Deputy Director Jiang said that there is a way to get people to invest 5 million if there are 50,000 users?"
"Five million is not bad, our company's implementation policy is free, and it must only rely on financing to grow, five million angel investment is OK, Yahu's angel investment ...... Well, it seems to be an angel investment by the director's family, and it is said that the partnership with others only invested 600,000 US dollars, which is almost 5 million RMB. ”
Everyone laughed quietly when they said it, and they all said that if the company really became as awesome as Yahu in the future.
Zhang Wei shook his head and smiled slightly, 10 million users in five years is really a small goal in his mind, as for the investment of 5 million?
Million?
Angel investing?
How much do you look down on my Zhang Weila's investment!
The company's future goal is to be the leading Internet company in China, and if it costs 5 million, it will make people invest in angels, and I am sick? I have invested more than 10 million in the early stage, so I have to spend energy and money to develop because of my neuropathy? Not to mention the 5 million angel investment, even if it is increased tenfold, I may not be willing! Of course, Zhang Weicai will not tell the employees these words, and when the investment is brought back, it is enough to give them money for development, and I can still make less money.
Also, the user base should not be described as tens of thousands, hundreds of millions of netizens in the future generations are good, so 10 million users is really just a small goal!
Take your time, and you'll know if I'm a small target in the future!
Not to mention anything else, after the free mailbox is launched, you will know how much to absorb users!
The most important thing is to see how many netizens there are next year, Zhang Wei's goal is to absorb most of the country's netizens called users! )
