As soon as the phone was connected, Zhou Hongwei's laughter came out: "Haha..., congratulations on the opening of the download website!" ”

Zhang Fan smiled: "Mr. Zhou's news is too fast, right?" We haven't announced it yet. ”

"I've been refreshing your page, and a new page came out just after another refresh......"

Zhou Hongwei smiled: "I'll assure you that I'm not the only one who refreshes together at this time." Maybe before you can push it, someone will send it to the sparrow. ”

"Wouldn't it? ......" As he spoke, Zhang Fan and Zhou Yang walked into the WeChat office together.

After a few words of gossip, Zhou Hongwei said: "Will you announce the matter of our 'software security cooperation' at six o'clock in the afternoon, or will it be released later?" ”

"At six o'clock in the afternoon, my brother has a new plan?" Zhang Fan asked.

"Not really." Zhou Hongwei said: "I just determined the time, so that I can follow up here in real time." ”

"The panda client sent to us by my brother, I have asked the technician to upload it to the 360 official website and the security guard background software library......"

"By the way, my brother didn't read the news just now, Bubble Technology News said: Xiaomi plans to acquire 'Huanju', and is also preparing to enter the field of instant messaging."

"Oh? Which company is the 'happy gathering' that my brother is talking about? Zhang Fan asked, and Zhou Yang also listened attentively.

Zhou Hongwei said: "It's the company that 'crooked/crooked/language/sound', and Xiaomi Lei Jun is the major shareholder of Huanju." It is estimated that the shareholding is more than 30%. ”

As he spoke, he briefly explained the summary of Huanju Company and Zhang Fan.

……

Huanju Company was founded in 2005, when it received more than $1 million in angel investment from Lei Jun, and started with the help of "World of Warcraft".

At present, the number of crooked/crooked/language/phonetic registrations has exceeded 40 million. The number of people online at the same time reached 2 million.

In 2008, it was rated as the Internet company with the most development potential and the most investment value. In early April, it received a $30 million investment from an international venture capital firm.

Hear this. Zhang Fan pondered: "So it shouldn't be easy for Xiaomi to acquire Huanju, and it will cost at least $100 million to acquire it as a wholly-owned company, right?" ”

"Maybe $100 million won't come down." Zhou Hongwei said: "Disney has also invested a lot before, counting other financing...... The market value of Huanju has exceeded 200 million. ”

"I don't think a takeover is likely, but the likelihood of a stake is very high. Brother, you'd better pay attention to it, there is no wind and no waves, since there is news coming out, it means that Xiaomi is indeed ready to take the opportunity to enter the field of instant messaging. ”

"In addition to it, the recent 'Old Wave UU Chat' has also moved its mind. I read the news and said: they plan to repackage UU chat ......"

"Thank you for the reminder." Zhang Fan said with a smile: "I have been busy with the company for the past two days, and I haven't paid much attention to the changes in the industry. ”

"In fact, everyone is competing, which is a positive impact on the market. As long as you find your own market position, everyone has their own piece of the world. ”

"Brother, what he said is reasonable." Zhou Hongwei said: "If the penguins compete steadily, they will not face the situation of 'the wall is down and everyone pushes'......"

"This time, my brother has opened up new ideas in the design and thinking of the instant messaging field, and it is estimated that the old wave and Xiaomi will 'borrow' on a large scale. If the penguins continue to stick to the rules and are reluctant to make drastic changes, it is estimated that they will not be able to survive next year. ”

"Okay, let's talk about that first. The penguins are in a hurry to sue us, and we have to think of a countermeasure. ”

The two sides of the phone laughed in unison.

After you end the call. Zhang Fan and Zhou Yang returned to the Panda workspace to learn about the operation of the web page, as well as the various numbers. After learning that everything is stable. Summoned everyone back to Starfire for a meeting.

Now that the download page is open, it is basically the completion of the "72-hour panda online plan" set on the 19th. Just wait for the development and download at 8 o'clock tomorrow, and the entire "online plan" will be completed.

Next, everyone should improve a "booster plan", and strive to make the installed capacity of pandas reach 50 million by the end of the month, with an average daily active number of at least 10 million.

……

During the discussion, the heated discussion on 'Panda PC' on the Internet is ushering in a new peak, and the number of IP visits exceeded more than 2 million in less than one hour after the relevant download page was opened.

One of the most interesting topics is the 'Panda App Market' mentioned in the introduction of the page's features!

In the past two days, with the announcement of the PC version of Panda, there have been industry insiders on the Internet who have been debating whether Panda Chat can adapt to the multifaceted needs of computer users.

Although Penguin Chat is not good enough in some places, it is undeniable that it can meet all the needs of an ordinary netizen. And not just as a regular chat tool.

Just like an older user, you may have very little time to chat, and most of the time is spent consuming the 'Penguin Game Hall'. If this type of user should use 'Panda Chat', it may be very uncomfortable.

In addition, there are many problems with usage habits, such as the 'quick screenshot' function, which Panda Chat does not have.

In the eyes of some industry insiders, 'Panda Chat' is a simple chat tool.

Maybe users will be curious to use it for a day or two, but after a long time, they will return to the penguin because they are not used to it or the function is not rich enough.

The revelation of 'Panda Application Market' and 'Sparrow Micro-terminal Plug-in' made those who were "not optimistic" in the industry instantly shut their mouths, and supporters were even more looking forward to and excited!

The most excited are the sparrow users and fans, the appearance of the sparrow micro end, a large part of the dù minus the redundant operation links. Logging in to Panda Chat is equivalent to automatically logging in to the sparrow network.

……

Editorial Department of Old Wave Technology.

In the corner of the studio, Wu Wenbin and several colleagues from the headquarters excitedly gathered around a notebook, eating lunch and discussing 'Panda Application Market' and 'Sparrow Micro-terminal Plug-in'.

Editor Jin Ling bit her chopsticks and said: "Looking at the above introduction...... the relationship between 'Panda Chat' and 'Sparrow Net' has become a penguin chat and penguin space?" ”

"It's different."

Wu Wenbin pointed to the 'sparrow micro-end display picture' and said: "From here, the sparrow plug-in built by Panda should not be opened through the guò web page." Maybe it's the 'micro client' explained above. ”

"Also. Sparrow is just using the 'Panda Market' as a platform. Separated from the 'Panda', it remains independent. Turn off the penguin chat. Would you still use Penguin Space? ”

"This is the genius of Mr. Zhang, let the two learn from each other's strengths and complement each other!"

The editors nodded one after another, and Li Mo took a few bites of food and said: "If the plug-in built-in in the market can really achieve the 'fast response' mentioned above, it will be much cooler to use than the web page!" ”

"At least in the future, if you log in to Panda, you don't have to repeatedly open the webpage to see the sparrow.com...... And his 'dot reminder' is also very good. ”

"Brother Wu, I think the concept of this panda market. It's the same as the 'Big White APP Mall'. Panda PC is not so much a chat software as a 'micro system' with instant messaging capabilities. ”

"I don't know how the engineers of Weixin did it, and they can actually make one software run on another software, and it can be compatible."

"Hmm!" Wu Wenbin said with a smile: "This is Zhang Fan's innovative side. With the 'panda market', the shortcoming of 'lack of functionality' that some people accuse is gone. You can develop whatever you want in the future. ”

"The most subtle part is that Panda does not bind these plugins, but allows users to download and install them by themselves. It not only saves its own size, but also enriches the software functions, and at the same time does not make the software look cluttered and without a sense of design. ”

"I just don't know if Mr. Zhang will open the 'Panda App Market'. If more people can join in, I believe that this market will be in the future. It will become a 'PC software supermarket'! ”

"Platform clients such as Lianzhong Games and Haofang Battle Platform can gain new vitality in the 'Panda Market'."

……

"That's right!" Editor Jin Ling excitedly: "Many software companies can launch their own micro-terminal plug-ins on the 'Panda Market'. With the help of the panda's fiery popularity, it is rejuvenated. It's also a new area for other developers and companies! ”

"Panda micro-terminal software, micro-terminal games, micro-terminal browsers, network TV, these can be had! By the way, our old wave can also develop its own news micro-terminal! ”

"Damn, my husband's idea is simply amazing!"

Seeing that the beautiful colleagues on the side were excited and jumped up, Wu Wenbin smiled: "Calm down, pay attention to the image!" It is still unknown whether Zhang Fan will open up his own market. However, I think the probability of openness is higher, because he is not a person who only looks at immediate interests. ”

"Since Zhang Fan thought of this step, he should have thought of what we just guessed."

"That's it!" Jin Ling said excitedly: "Brother Wu, this article will be written by me and will be given to you before 3 o'clock in the afternoon." Make headlines! ”

"No problem. However, it is not allowed to 'carry private goods'. Wu Wenbin pointed.

As he spoke, more imagination began to unfold in the editing room.

……

They are not the only ones who are being excitedly discussed. On the Sparrow Network, the hot opinions of netizens are like snowflakes, and there are discussions about the 'application market' everywhere.

Ordinary netizens saw Panda's intimacy and intentions from the 'application market', and people in the industry and those parts companies and developers smelled business opportunities.

In the future, Panda is likely to become another billion-dollar instant messaging software after Penguin! At that time, the 'panda market' was equivalent to a billions platform, who would not be tempted in the face of a market of this scale?

Now sitting in front of the computer to watch Lianzhong Games, Shanda Games, VS Battle Platform and other software industry people, are rapidly turning their brains to guess the intentions of the panda and how to cooperate.

At 3 o'clock in the afternoon, with the headline of "3 minutes to read the 'Panda Application Market'" of Old Wave Technology landed on the Internet, a large number of similar news articles were logged in on major media and website portals one after another.

At 6 o'clock, Weixin 360 jointly released the "Software Security Strategic Cooperation Plan", and the Internet once again fell into a small excitement. Until this early morning, there were still media commenting on it.

Netizens also understood 'Zhang Fan's intentions' in the analysis and interpretation of industry insiders and experts throughout the day, and their hearts had a stronger sense of early thinking and expectation.

Early in the morning of the 23rd, hundreds of thousands of netizens opened the 'Panda PC download page' to refresh, and the closer the time was to the opening time, the more cumulative number of visitors were.

By 7:50 a.m., the number of visitors to the download page had reached 2.17 million.
