Chapter 402 QQ platformization
Hu Yiting continued: "In addition, I want to give you a task, I have been thinking about the products of Chongguang Software recently, and finally I have made up my mind.
I think that all the business of Chongguang Software in the future should be based on the QQ platform and integrated into the QQ platform, so you should now carry out an integration, put the mailbox system and QQ Super Solution into QQ, so that users can directly enter the mailbox with QQ number as the address from the QQ platform after downloading QQ, and when users need to put VCD, they can easily download the new version of QQ Super Solution from QQ.
In this way, QQ will undergo a transformation, it will no longer be a simple communication software, it will become a software platform, users can freely choose to download software from this platform, and they can also simply delete the software. β
As he spoke, Hu Yiting looked at Wang Baoliang.
Wang Baoliang nodded and said: "This is not difficult to achieve, but you need to write a download program, embedded in QQ, and make an uninstallation and installation management software similar to that provided by indos, which is also embedded in it." β
Xiao Ma said: "Mr. Hu, are you planning to enter the mailbox? This is a big investment, and there is a conflict with AOL and even Yahoo in business, and it is estimated that there will be a fight! Yahoo is a web portal, and its software download page is very helpful to the popularization of QQ, and once the fight starts, it will be more difficult for us to promote it on Yahoo. β
Hu Yiting said: "Let's make a little fuss first, add a small mailbox icon option in the horizontal bar at the top of QQ, so that users can easily enter the mailbox without entering the address, username and password, and our mailbox should not be too big, Yahoo now provides 1.5M attachments, we provide 1M first." β
Xiaoma looked grim and asked, "Mr. Hu, when do you want to push the mailbox business up?"
Hu Yiting said: "The development and integration of the platform system will be carried out first, and the email business will be added last, after all, as you said, this is going to be a war, don't alarm the opponent at the beginning." β
As he spoke, he asked Wang Baoliang: "Mr. Wang, how long do you think it will take to complete the system development and integration of the QQ platform?"
Wang Baoliang said: "At most one year, as soon as half a year, I feel that it is not very difficult, but it is estimated that it will not be small after the product is made, and it will definitely increase the burden for new users to download." β
Hu Yiting nodded: "At the beginning, you can download it selectively, providing two versions, one is the platform version, the other is the lite version, don't force users, and when the Internet speed is faster in the future, we will cancel the lite version." But keep in mind that the operating habits and appearance of the two versions should be completely consistent, and there can be no differences, and the differences can only be in the functions. β
Wang Baoliang understood Hu Yiting's concerns, nodded admiringly: "I know, Mr. Hu, you are right, there can be no differences, otherwise it will cause confusion to users in terms of use and adaptation." β
Pony said: "In this case, it seems that our mailbox will be embedded in QQ, at least 97 years." β
Hu Yiting nodded: "I think it's good, QQ mailbox should be our gift to Hong Kong's return." β
Pony agreed: "That's good, the teacher is famous, it's better to have a reason than to kill it abruptly, if Yahoo negotiates, we will use this reason to explain, let's say it's a political task, I guess it's okay to fool them for a while." β
QQ's Chinese mailbox is developed by Wang Baoliang, he proudly said: "Our company's mailbox system is personally developed by me, now 90% of the domestic telecom operators are using our heavy light Chinese mailbox system, as the first domestic independent intellectual property rights of Chinese mailbox system, we were the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications as a designated product, recommended to all post and telecommunications offices that provide Internet access services across the country, QQ to integrate mailboxes, I guarantee that at least in China, with other mailbox systems can achieve 100% high-speed docking." β
Hu Yiting said approvingly: "Yes, Mr. Wang has made great contributions to the mailbox! Our Chongguang is supported by such excellent technical research and development personnel as you!"
Xiaoma said: "I think the enterprise mailbox business has great prospects in the future, now large enterprises almost all build their own mailbox servers, some use foreign mailbox systems, but almost all in China use our heavy Chinese mailbox, because it is compatible with the mailbox of post and telecommunications, and the speed is fast." However, judging from the development trend of foreign countries, many small and medium-sized enterprises also need mailbox systems, but instead of investing in building servers and managing them, it is obviously not cost-effective, and there is a security issue to consider, so I think that enterprise mailboxes must be a profitable project in the future. β
Wang Baoliang said: "Yes, like Yahoo and AOL, they are already providing hosting services for enterprise mailboxes. β
Hu Yiting nodded: "Yes, the paid mailbox is a profitable direction." β
Wang Lili also said at this time: "I think the reason why we are afraid of Yahoo is because they control the portal and the search service, and it would be nice if we had our own portal." β
As soon as this remark came out, everyone nodded in agreement with her.
Xiaoma said: "In fact, we can also engage in portals, now our QQ forum is doing well, the number of users is increasing rapidly, has surpassed Shuimu Tsinghua, is the largest BBS forum in China, and now there is a four-way party, ranking third."
Hu Yiting originally didn't plan to engage in a web portal, thinking that this thing involved news dissemination, and he was a layman in this regard, but whenever news involves ideology, he didn't want to be involved. But in the current situation, since QQ is to be operated as a platform, if there is no portal, some places will be restricted, which he does not want to see.
"What do you say, pony, do you have the confidence to build a portal?"
Xiaoma's spirit perked up: "Mr. Hu, you know that I used to engage in C-FIDO, I know too much about the forum, the portal is just a forum with richer content and more complete layout, to say that I am an expert in China, my pony station is still open, but the server has been set up in our company, hehehe, it can be regarded as helping our QQ forum cultivate users." β
Hu Yiting said happily: "That's okay! You are responsible for expanding our QQ forum!"
Pony excitedly says, "No problem!"
Hu Yiting nodded: "When it comes to search engines, I'm not afraid of Yahoo, I can write this thing myself, Yahoo's manual work is not the future of search engines, it can only be done quickly, and the algorithm is the direction of search engines." β
As soon as Hu Yiting's big words were released, no one objected to the result, everyone was almost half superstitious about Hu Yiting's ability, plus the algorithm of the search engine is indeed closely related to mathematics, in their opinion, Hu Yiting, who can even solve the PoincarΓ© conjecture, if he writes a search engine, it is not as easy as chopping melons and vegetables.
