After a night of consultations, Lin Feng and Liu Yingying held an emergency meeting again the next day.

At the meeting, Lin Feng announced that Liu Yingying became the second shareholder of the company, holding 10% of the company's equity, and the existing market sales will not be split into the planning department and the marketing department, the planning department is headed by Liu Yingying, and the marketing department is headed by Su Xiaomei, which is under the jurisdiction of Liu Yingying. The focus of the work has shifted from online trading platforms to fast food restaurants that Liu Yingying had previously negotiated in Beijing. Strive to spread fast food restaurants all over Chu City by the end of this month, in order to have more chips to counter Xia Qianhe's strong attack.

Due to Lin Feng's shortage of funds, although a fast food restaurant of about 30 square meters has a total investment of about 50,000 yuan, the funds are far from enough to form a chain. Lin Feng immediately decided to take the franchise method and charge a certain franchise fee to strengthen the company while strengthening the momentum of the fast food restaurant.

In the early franchise store, Lin Feng directly found relatives on both sides of his parents. Due to his father's accidental injury before, Lin Feng's resistance to the relatives has disappeared, and the relatives have been complaining that Lin Feng did not show them a way to make money.

"Okay, all the elders have read the contract, if you don't have any comments, please sign the contract." Lin Feng looked at the elders and said.

"Well, there is only one problem, the contradiction between you and the deputy mayor" Obviously, after the stock time and the development and growth of Lin Feng Netcity, the relatives did not doubt Lin Feng's vision, but they were only worried about the contradiction between him and the deputy mayor.

"Don't worry, I'll fix this. And this time the company licensee is not me, I think there should be no problem. Lin Feng explained.

"Yes, that's good." All the relatives breathed a sigh of relief and happily signed their names. The two invested a total of 50,000 yuan, but the return on profit was 100%, so if they still considered it, it would be really stupid.

After that, Lin Feng handed over the issues of site selection and unified decoration style to Liu Yingying to deal with, and rushed to Shenzhen non-stop.

There are only three days left until September 11, when CS Counter-Strike will be available for global download, but although Lin Feng's online trading platform has been promoted through unremitting efforts during this time, it has achieved little success, and not a single transaction has been generated so far.

Just when Lin Feng was worried about this, he unexpectedly saw the employees logging in to QQ, and Lin Feng suddenly had an idea in his heart.

Tencent was founded in November 1998 with the strategic goal of "providing users with one-stop online life services".

In April 2000, the number of registered QQ users reached 5 million.

In May, the number of people online at the same time exceeded the 100,000 mark for the first time.

On May 28, "People's Daily" reported: At 20:43 on the evening of May 27, the number of people online at the same time on QQ exceeded the 100,000 mark for the first time.

In June, the number of registered QQ users exceeded 10 million again.

Although the current Tencent is not as prosperous as it was later, the future prospects are unanimously optimistic by all people in the industry. It's just that Tencent is also facing a common problem with many network companies at the moment, the problem of breaking even. At this stage, most of the Internet companies rely on venture capital to maintain their operations, and there is no substantial income for the time being.

Earlier Sina, NetEase, etc., were listed on the NASDAQ before they raised enough funds to continue their operations, and they slowly continued to grow and became leaders in the industry. At this time, Tencent wants to be listed on the NASDAQ or Hong Kong, but it is still far away. Today, although Tencent has tens of millions of registered users, it is still just a small company struggling in Shenzhen.

Lin Feng went to Shenzhen this time to discuss cooperation with Tencent Chairman Ma Huateng, whose business card still has the title of engineer printed on his business card at the moment. Originally, Liu Yingying wanted to accompany her, but Lin Feng still decided to let Liu Yingying be in charge of the fast food restaurant, after all, the fast food restaurant is more critical to Lin Feng now. Not only must we face the strong attack of Xia Qianhe in the future, but also face the two leaders in the fast food industry - KFC and McDonald's. Without Liu Yingying in charge, Lin Feng was really not at ease.

What's more, this cooperation, to a certain extent, is Lin Feng giving Tencent the opportunity, not Tencent giving Lin Feng the opportunity to the online trading platform.

On September 7, Lin Feng took his secretary Cheng Peijia to sit in Ma Huateng's office.

Ma Huateng, aged 30, obtained a bachelor's degree in science from Shenzhen University in 1993, majoring in computer and application, and has extensive knowledge and experience in the telecommunications and Internet industries.

"Mr. Lin, may I ask what you have to do this time when you come all the way to Shenzhen?" Ma Huateng was extremely curious about Lin Feng, and he didn't know what kind of cooperation this young man who was 10 years younger than himself would propose. Although his company now has tens of millions of users and has extremely good market prospects, no company has yet put forward the intention of cooperating with him, which makes Ma Huateng secretly helpless at the same time, but also more motivates himself, and must make Tencent the most haode network service company in the country.

Lin Feng smiled slightly, but did not speak, and reached out to stop Cheng Peijia, who wanted to take out the cooperation contract.

"Ma Dong, what do you think of your company's prospects?" Lin Feng asked.

"Tencent Network Company will become the most Haode Network Company in the country." Ma Huateng made no secret of his ambitions.

"What do you think of online trading platforms?" Lin Feng asked again.

Ma Huateng has also done relevant investigations and knows that Lin Feng is now the owner of an inconspicuous online trading platform, and his development is extremely difficult, although it is similar to his own company's current situation. However, in terms of the number of registered users and prospects, it is not the same.

After pondering for a while, Ma Huateng pondered and said, "In China, online personal trading platform, eBay is the leader today, and Alibaba occupies the leading position in the company's trade, your company."

Ma Huateng didn't say what he said later, and Lin Feng also knew what he meant. In this regard, Lin Feng didn't care about it, and waited for Ma Huateng to follow.

Seeing that Lin Feng was not displeased at all, Ma Huateng nodded secretly and continued, "I have roughly browsed your online trading network, you should take the personal trading route, that is, take eBay as a competitor. But right now, in terms of popularity, you're far from being able to compare with eBay, let alone trading volume. However, you are more rigorous than eBay in the initial registration review system, although it has blocked many customers in the early stage, but in the long run, your online trading network has a more promising prospect. eBay is too simple in terms of review, and the individual merchants in it are uneven, and it is very easy to have a credit crisis, and if this development continues, there will be chaos sooner or later. ”

Ma Huateng's vision did make Lin Feng secretly admire, which was indeed an important reason for the gradual decline of eBay.

"But what I want to ask is, how is Mr. Lin going to cooperate with my company? You know, my Tencent website now has tens of millions of registered people, and this number continues to increase every day. Ma Huateng changed his words and said strongly.

Ma Huateng's strength was expected by Lin Feng, his current online trading platform and the other party are not at the same level at all, and the so-called cooperation may be more appropriate in the eyes of the other party. But this kind of "begging" does not pay a certain price, and Ma Huateng will never agree.

"It's very simple, I hope that when your company logs in to QQ, add a pop-up window, which shows my company's website address and a brief introduction." At this time, Lin Feng handed Ma Huateng a cooperation intention to prepare haode.

Ma Huateng just took a cursory look, and what he was more concerned about at the moment was what Lin Feng had just said.

Add a pop-up! -- Ma Huateng immediately thought that he could use this to advertise as a way to alleviate the company's current tight financial situation. But then, Ma Huateng shook his head again. At this moment, my company is still in the development stage, and competitors are also trying to squeeze into the instant messaging market.

After thinking about it for a while, Ma Huateng looked at Lin Feng and waited for this young man, who was 10 years younger than himself, to throw out his chips. If this chip is enough to make your heart flutter, you may not be able to say yes.

After all, this online trading platform is not an advertisement for the majority of QQ registered users. It's just another service offered.
