Chapter 592: Live Streaming Platform
Weibo mobile assistant makes money by tipping and advertising, and the current monthly profit is very unstable, with millions when it is less and tens of millions when it is more. However, Daxiong Technology has few people, only more than 130 people in total, and most of them are technicians, so the expenditure is also small.
Xiong Jun is unique to the company's organization, he doesn't pay much attention to planning, finance, personnel and the like.
It's just a mobile phone assistant, and he can manage the little money he earns, he can manage more than 100 people, and he can do a good job in product planning. Xiong Jun does all the work such as planning, finance, and personnel by himself and technical management.
In other words, his management is basically a technician, and he also holds other positions.
How to position the product, how to update, how to allocate finance, what people to recruit... These matters are discussed and decided together. For specific types of talents, Xiong Jun recruits relatively little, and he is completely assisted in Daxiong Technology.
He doesn't have finances here, finance is his assistant.
The reason why this happens, is related to the nature of the Weibo mobile assistant product. Although this product is excellent, it is not a particularly high-tech product, and its success is a bit similar to that of 123 navigation.
Mobile assistants are a new model, not a new technology.
Xiong Jun himself has a deep understanding of this model, and he can complete a lot of planning and management work by himself.
And the profit method of the mobile phone assistant is also very simple, there is no need to think too much about this aspect, what Xiong Jun wants to do is to make the mobile phone assistant more popular, anyway, Hang Yu does not ask him to open up new ways to make money, and he himself does not have that idea.
Of course, this doesn't mean that Xiong Jun doesn't want to make money, it's just that he doesn't plan to make money with his mobile phone assistant.
"If we don't rely on mobile phone assistants to make money, do we want to develop new products?" Wang Ding asked.
"That's right, the time is ripe for us to build new products around the mobile phone assistant. Just like the headquarters, I think Weibo's profit model is very good. Xiong Jun said.
Although we have a lot of users, most of them just come to download software, and the experience is very short, and there is almost no stickiness. And most of our users are also from Weibo, rather than taking the mobile phone assistant as the foundation, it is better to continue to develop new products around Weibo. Wang Ding was skeptical.
"I think so too, and I believe that the headquarters will support us. Yu Hongyan said.
Xiong Jun's analysis made Xiong Jun quite disappointed and frustrated, after leaving the headquarters for so long, the influence of the headquarters is still so deep. But calm down and think about it, this is also a thing that can't be helped, the headquarters is the headquarters after all.
Putting aside that little bit of caution, Xiong Jun said expressionlessly: "My idea is to develop a new product with high market value and go independent. ”
Hearing Xiong Jun's words, Wang Ding and Yu Hongyan both raised their eyebrows, and it was difficult to answer for a while. Xiong Jun's meaning is very clear, after the new product is independent, they can own all the shares.
Such a plan made Wang Ding and Yu Hongyan quite frightened, but soon, they were also excited. It's not that the mobile phone assistant is independent, it's not a betrayal of the headquarters, it's hard to work for Hang Yu for the rest of your life.
Thinking about it again, Wang Ding showed a worried look again, and said analytically: "The new product is independent, in case it angers the chairman, recall the mobile phone assistant." Or don't let our new products work with mobile assistants, as well as Weibo products, what should we do?"
Xiong Jun replied: "So this matter can't be told immediately, we have to use the power of mobile phone assistants to make new products grow rapidly, and even if the connection is cut off, new products can develop independently." ”
Yu Hongyan was surprised: "It's not good to develop new products without telling the headquarters, it will be more troublesome if it is known." ”
Wang Dingding nodded and said: "Yes, it is better to talk openly and honestly and win the support of the headquarters." ”
Xiong Jun was even more frustrated in his heart, he thought about it for a long time before deciding to tell his right-hand man, but he didn't expect both of them to veto his plan. Is the shadow area of the headquarters in their hearts so large? Xiong Jun sighed in his heart.
The right hand and right men all expressed their vetoes, and Xiong Jun suddenly became a little entangled.
"What if the headquarters doesn't support it?" asked Xiong Jun.
"It should be supported, you look at the software park, so many teams developing new products, and the headquarters doesn't ask for all their shares. As far as I know, the contract signed by the headquarters with them stipulates that the preferential investment shall not exceed 30%. The big deal is that we also signed a contract with the headquarters, so that the headquarters will have priority to invest 30% of the shares, and the remaining 70 is enough. Wang Ding said.
"What do you think?" Xiong Jun looked at Yu Hongyan.
"I think it's a safe plan. Yu Hongyan replied.
Thirty percent of the shares is enough, and Xiong Jun is somewhat reluctant.
But he had to consider the idea of his right-hand man, because Wang Ding and Yu Hongyan did not support him, and it would be difficult for him to complete the development of new products alone, unless he was willing to give up everything he had and start a new business.
The development of Weibo mobile phone assistant is so good, how can Xiong Jun be willing to give up.
Thinking about it, Xiong Jun can only make a choice.
"General manager, do you have any particularly good ideas, which will definitely be popular?" Wang Ding said curiously.
"I'm going to make a video site. Xiong Jun said.
"Isn't there a Weibo video, it's useful to make another one?" Wang Ding said.
"It's not an ordinary video site, it's a live video site. Xiong Jun said.
Xiong Jun saw the live video network on the Internet a long time ago, but the live broadcast method is very rough, the live broadcast content is relatively vulgar, and the live broadcast equipment is relatively backward, so it has not become popular.
Xiong Jun didn't care at the time, but later he saw Hang Yu's annual meeting speech on the Internet, Hang Yu told about his imitation of Twitter to create Weibo, and said that it is a very convenient entrepreneurial model to move successful experience from developed countries.
Although Hang Yu's speech was criticized by many righteous people at that time, I have to admit that he inspired many people with wooden thinking. Xiong Jun is one of them, he saw that Hang Yu was developing so successfully, and the moral barrier in his heart was quickly left behind.
Learning from successful experience is not murder and arson, in the past, those nouveau riche went to the sea to smuggle, and they did even more excessively.
Thinking about it this way, Xiong Jun immediately began to pay frequent attention to the development of foreign Internet, and it happened that he saw foreign live broadcast platforms again. Xiong Jun found that the foreign live broadcast industry was already very good at this time, so he reacted suddenly, this is an experience that can be "learned".
With the development of smartphones and computer devices, Xiong Jun is becoming more and more certain that China can also play live broadcasting.
