Chapter 172: Countdown to the release of YY software
However, to acquire Feiyang Internet Cafe, a subsidiary of Zhengfei Technology, it is really not something that can be done in a short time. Zhou Xuan didn't know how long it would take for the government to complete the combing, but it should be needed in a month or two.
Therefore, after confirming that the dust had settled on the collapse of the Xue family, Zhou Xuan also returned to NC County, Rongzhou on November 1, preparing to prepare for the final exam of the first semester of the third year of high school.
Yes, for Zhou Xuan, a super scholar, it is just to deal with it.
In fact, if it weren't for the promise of the principal and his parents, Zhou Xuan wouldn't even want to go back for the half-term exam, who called the exam would be too simple for Zhou Xuan. However, in order to eliminate the doubts of Zhou's parents, teachers, principals and others, Zhou Xuan must come back at the end of the semester and the term.
During the half-term exam, Zhou Xuan's appearance naturally caused a discussion.
As for Zhou Xuan's ability to come to class, many students can be said to be envious, jealous and hateful. Of course, there are also some people who are very unhappy with Zhou Xuan's privileges, and they are holding a breath in their hearts that they must defeat Zhou Xuan in the half-term exam.
Zhou Xuan scoffed at such thoughts, and after the scores came out, Zhou Xuan would let them know what despair was.
In this way, the two-day exam ended quickly and happily.
Then Zhou Xuan stayed at home for another day, and then quickly returned to the provincial capital.
As for why it came back so soon, of course, it was because the official release of YY software was not far off.
November 11th, Singles' Day in the future, Double 11! Zhou Xuan's decision to this date is very meaningful!
YY software is the core of Zhou Xuan's Internet empire in the future, and Zhou Xuan will of course put it in the top priority.
For Zhou Xuan, who has mastered the development process of TX buckles in later generations, he has a lot of confidence in YY. If the only worry is that they are about to set up a TX company in Pengcheng.
After all, as the five founders of Buckle, whether it is Lao Ma or others, they are all rare talents in the development of the Internet. If they insisted on following the pace of the previous life and developing buckles, Zhou Xuan would not be able to stop them. I can't say that the two families have to do a big war.
Therefore, on the way back to the provincial capital, Zhou Xuan felt that he should dig up two of the five people by himself. In this way, it not only strengthened the technical strength of Zhou Xuan's side, but also weakened Lao Ma's side.
However, thinking that Lao Ma was either a classmate or a relative, Zhou Xuan still dispelled this idea.
When he came to Huanyu Technology Company, Zhou Xuan quickly summoned Kuang Yufei and Feng Jing to inquire about YY's situation, including software testing, server construction, and advertising promotion.
Unlike the tight funds on Lao Ma's side in the previous life, the release of the buckle was not as clear as any publicity. Zhou Xuan decided to invest 5 million yuan to advertise YY software, and strive to gain a firm foothold in the instant messaging software market in the shortest possible time.
After all, at this time, in addition to Zhou Xuan, and the information company on Bay Island, there is also Jinling's Polaris Software Company, which will launch the Chinese version of the instant messaging software at the end of 1998, and there should be nothing else.
The rest of the software, such as the buckle and the "network pager" Netpager produced by Yifang Company, and the Xinlang paging SinaPager, took 99 years to come out.
The consultant company in Bay Island is now only launching the traditional version of CICQ, and it is only being promoted on Bay Island, and it will not be launched until August next year to launch PICQ on the mainland. By August next year, there will only be ashes.
As for the Internet Elf launched by Jinling's Polaris Software Company, although it developed well in the first year, it was also deducted and cut off in the end, so Zhou Xuan was not worried.
Now Zhou Xuan has money, someone has technology, and he is almost the first person to eat crabs in the field of Chinese instant messaging software. If you can't become the hegemon in the field of instant messaging software, it will really be in vain and reborn.
After a simple trial of the official version of YY software, Zhou Xuan is very satisfied with the current YY software. It can be said that Zhou Xuan planned the YY software according to the experience of TX buckles, and then added some of his own ideas.
The first version of YY software was reduced to 188k in size, which can be said to be a great advantage for the current snail-like network speed. This is smaller than the more than 200K buckled at the beginning, Zhou Xuan doesn't know how Lao Ma felt when he saw YY software. I don't know if they will streamline the buckle to more than 100K if they continue to develop the buckle.
There is also a beautiful icon designed by Zhou Xuan for YY software, a bright and cute logo. As a symbol of YY in the future, Zhou Xuan added color treatment to the two letters of YY on the basis of deformation, so that YY looks like two flying birds. It symbolizes that YY will spread its wings like a bird and soar above the nine heavens.
The first version of YY does not have many functions, only supports adding and searching friends, grouping friends, chatting with friends, picture file transfer, user-defined system avatars, system preset chat expressions and other functions. In addition, it absorbs the drawbacks of unclear login prompts at the beginning of the deduction, and displays the login input box in the most conspicuous place. And added an eye-catching help prompt interface, so that users know how to register a YY number when they click on the software for the first time, as well as some other operations.
I guarantee that there will be no jokes that I have to re-register a YY number every time I get on YY, which makes people laugh. Moreover, after the first registration and login deduction, when the user wants to log out of the deduction, the user will be prompted to remember the deduction number and its password in order to log in next time.
"Yes, Kuang Yufei and Feng Jing, you two have worked hard during this time. Zhou Xuan spent half an hour to experience the current YY software, and it felt very good.
It can be said that the current YY software has beaten all the instant messaging software that appeared in the last 99 years, including the buckle, with such a product in hand, Zhou Xuan why not be able to dominate the market and occupy the hegemony of instant messaging software.
In the face of Zhou Xuan's praise, General Manager Kuang Yufei said with a smile: "Mr. Zhou is polite, we are all optimized on the YY software core you developed." Actually, we didn't do much work, but we just added more things to the security area. There is also a lot of work on user experience and fluency. But what we're a little curious about is, Mr. Zhou, why do you value this instant messaging software so much?"
Facing Kuang Yufei's question, Zhou Xuan smiled: "Yufei, you must know ICQ, now this instant messaging software is very popular abroad." On the first anniversary of ICQ's launch in October last year, the number of users exceeded 5 million, with 1.3 million daily active users and more than 300,000 simultaneous online users. This year, the number of ICQ users has increased by 1.2 million per month, and it is now close to the 20 million mark. And right now, my friend in the United States told me that Imperialism Online would acquire ICQ for $400 million. Do you think our YY software will have no future in the future?"
"$400 million!"
"How is that possible!"
When Kuang Yufei and Feng Jing heard Zhou Xuan's words, their mouths grew and they were extremely shocked!
