It is not an easy task to read through the 12 business plans and the corresponding analysis and evaluation reports. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

The green light came in through the window, Zhang Ke stretched his waist, sat for a night with a sore back, Du Fei said that he wanted to help him read the information together, and he fell asleep after lying on the bed and didn't stay up for long, and the data slipped to the ground.

Zhang Ke walked over, checked the materials on the floor, sorted them out, and put them in the file box.

The 12 applications selected, although there are more or less minor problems, are all projects worthy of support from the perspective of information alone, and many factors outside the business plan - these factors are often quite critical, Zhang Ke does not have enough time to examine them one by one, he asked Zhao Zilin's team to contact as many applicants as possible - even if the business plan is not so impressively written applicants may have other aspects of the charm of appreciation.

Therefore, Zhang Ke still left the final decision to Chen Xinsheng and them - it was regarded as kicking the ball back.

turned on the computer and saw an email from Tang Jing in the early morning, it was raining at midnight in Hong Kong, Tang Jing said that she couldn't sleep listening to the sound of the rain ticking outside the window; But I don't know if the rain has stopped at this time.

After Zhang Ke replied to Tang Jing's email, he didn't feel sleepy for a while, browsing the news on Quantum Information, and the computer could be connected to the campus network in the graduate student apartment. In the early hours of the morning, the Internet speed is fast, in other words, Zhang Ke is not in the mood to browse the news on the Internet slowly, he has regained his habit of reading newspapers in recent years.

When the youth apartment is completed, fiber will be laid in the youth apartment, and the speed of Internet access will be improved. However, the Internet at this time could not be compared with ten years later, especially the domestic Internet construction had just started, and access to overseas websites was also restricted.

Quantum Online's news is a bit lagging behind, and the need to strengthen this aspect means further increasing the construction of the Quantum News Center and working more broadly with traditional news outlets, which means investing more money.

Ma Xiangdong is a guy who can burn money, and the 20 million that Kumho invested in Quantum again at the beginning of the year will be used until now, and it will be in less than three or five months.

At the beginning of September, the public computer Internet was interconnected with the China Science and Technology Network, the China Education and Scientific Research Computer Network, and the China Jinqiao Information Network. Looking back on the history of domestic Internet development in the next ten years, this period should be the first upsurge of the domestic Internet after the exploration and development in the early stage of commercialization, driven by the Internet boom in Europe and the United States.

The so-called boom is just more ruthless than burning money. At least before the real development of the Internet, before zero zero or zero year, there is no direct opportunity to make profits, and most of the typical cases of website business failure are those websites that lack sufficient financial support and are eager to make profits.

Zhang Ke will not directly interfere with Quantum's specific operations, but Ma Xiangdong insists on the policy of the portal and free operation for individual users. As for the funds needed for operation, Zhang Ke will not invest money in Quantum Online without restrictions, he has already clearly told Ma Xiangdong that it is time for them to beg from other investment institutions, and overseas venture capital funds are also the first to enter the domestic Internet industry at this time - without overseas venture capital institutions to join, even if Zhang Ke ruthlessly invests one billion and eight billion in Quantum, he will not be able to successfully list on the NASDAQ in the United States.

Can't be listed, the Internet cold wave after 01 year is not so easy to overcome, the stable profit period of the portal will be stranded until 03 years later, Zhang Ke doesn't want to have such a large amount of money in Quantum for a long time.

In September, before the real interconnection of the domestic Internet, there were already overseas venture capital institutions that were optimistic about the domestic market, the emerging market with a population of 1.3 billion, and the fast-growing economy -- venture capital was not optimistic about these prospects, invested, and then packaged and publicized these prospects, and then packaged and repurchased them to ordinary investors in Europe and the United States.

Ma Xiangdong has also been in contact with overseas investors, in any case, after a year of vigorous development, Quantum Online has only just had the moment when the domestic portal has only taken shape, and the results of Quantum Online are dazzling enough, in mid-June, the average daily traffic was suddenly one million people.

This is quite an impressive statistic in the middle of '97.

Among the three major portals in the future, only the average daily traffic of Sina's predecessor, Lifang Online, followed by Quantum Online, which exceeded one million traffic in late August, and at that moment Quantum Online had exceeded two million daily traffic.

At present, Quantum Online has not reached an agreement with overseas investors on the number of shares and shares of private placement.

Kumho will manage the investment in Quantum together with the venture capital fund.

The principle of venture capital funds is only to support technology-based and R&D enterprises in the initial stage, once these enterprises are on the right track of development and growth, venture capital funds will no longer continue to participate, but to seek the possibility of reasonable exit, and withdraw funds to support more technology projects to commercialize.

At the beginning of the year, when Quantum Online was changed to a joint-stock company, Kumho successively injected 25 million yuan and held 8 million shares, and Ma Xiangdong, Liang Wenjiang and other founders held a total of 2 million shares. Zhang Ke hopes to issue an additional 5 million shares at a price of no less than $1 per share, and if he can raise more than $5 million this time, it will be enough to support the second issuance until the middle of next year.

In addition to the 12 business plan applications selected, Zhang Ke also asked the staff of the venture capital center to type a catalog of all the applications to him. He had browsed a little, but there were many applications for website operation projects -- the real attention was paid to those projects that had demands on network technology, and one of the twelve business plans was a project application for the development of network classified information search engine technology.

Zhang Ke noticed that there was an application for a word game project called the Legend of the Three Kingdoms in the list of eliminated directories, Zhang Ke remembered that the earliest contact with word games was the Legend of Jin Yong's Heroes, when a group of people crackled at the window and knocked on the text very happily, Zhang Ke had no idea of contacting this kind of word game at this time, he was very curious about how this kind of game was made, he called Zhao Zilin, and asked her to send the project information to Ma Hailong.

Zhang Ke slept beautifully in the morning, and in the afternoon, he went to the grade with the game development materials of the Legend of the Three Kingdoms.

The number of freshmen who took leave to not participate in military training for various reasons increased by 12 the next day, but most of them were girls in their menstrual cycles. Zhang Ke, Du Fei and Xie Zijia were responsible for writing posters in the activity room - there were not a few posters to write, and after writing the posters, the posters were handed over to others to do, and Zhang Ke dragged a chair to read the game development materials of the Legend of the Three Kingdoms in the window.

The lag in the construction of domestic networks, the 2D online games that have appeared and gradually become popular in Japan, South Korea, Europe and the United States are still unable to survive on the domestic Internet soil -- don't complain about the speed of the Internet, the performance of the vast majority of domestic computers is not even enough to support the hardware needs of 2D games, but in the next few years, the Internet cafes that use optical fiber to access the Internet and the rapid upgrading of computer hardware equipment will quickly spread in large and medium-sized cities in China, and only then will a suitable soil be cultivated.

The bleak profit prospects, and the direction of technological development, are not in line with the main purpose of the Oak Park project, which is why Zhao Zilin and the others were shot in the first batch of project applications for the Three Kingdoms Liehao.

Zhang Ke is well aware of the development of domestic online games, and the success of online games depends largely on the success of operation and marketing, and the excellent production of the game itself is not the most critical factor.

Naturally, the profitability of word games is bleak, and the project documentation mentions the concept of graphics. Zhang Ke feels similar to the business strategy web games that will prevail ten years later, and in his previous life, Zhang Ke liked to soak in the office and play this kind of web game.

Web games that use flash technology as the game engine are more casual, and they became popular after 2D and 3D online games, but Zhang Ke does not think that web games will appear later than 2D and 3D online games. If you think about it, even if web games and 2D games appeared at the same time, in the context of the Internet in the early 90s and early 2000s, there is still more room for the survival and development of 2D online games.

Zhang Ke has no interest in 2D online games, and is very hesitant: will it be too extravagant to spend a sum of money to develop this game for himself?

Zhang Ke threw the development materials of the Legend of the Three Kingdoms to Du Fei: "Look at this ......"

"What's that?" Du Fei took it and flipped to the title page, "Hey, our school's ......"

"Huh?" Zhang Ke hadn't looked at the information of the project applicant carefully, and only when he turned his head sideways did he see that the name of the project applicant was still a little familiar, and he opened the description page of the project applicant at the end, and it was really the group of people who constructed the BBS of Dongda University in the campus network, and Du Fei had already mixed in in the past two days.
