Chapter 128: The Development Direction of the Forum
Spark Office.
"Are you here?"
Zhang Fan closed the document casually, and through the glass wall, he could see the founder Guo Jiang and three technicians for five minutes, and looked around curiously under Dong Gang's introduction.
Since the 28th of last month, Five Minutes has been making detailed changes to the game "Happy Farm", mainly adding the image of Dabai to the game, and making some design adjustments to the value-added items in the game.
On November 2, the work was basically completed, and the three founders of the company discussed it and decided to go to the boss first to help the Dabai community make some preparations before the game was launched.
After a few days of processing the details of the game, it will be officially launched according to the boss's wishes.
Office.
"He is our President Zhang Fan." Seeing Zhang Fan and Su Xiu walking out of the office, Dong Gang whispered in Guo Jiang's ear.
Guo Jiang's ears twitched, his eyelids jumped, and so did the three technicians beside him. No one expected that the boss behind the 'fireworks project' would be so young.
"Boss, this is five minutes Guo Manager Guo Jiang, these three are the company's game development engineers, Wang Min, Li Song, Xiang Yang ......"
"Huh." Hearing Dong Gang introduce the 'Xiangyang', Gao Ting, who was passing by, said with a smile: "Xiangyang's house has good feng shui. ”
When the words fell, Guo Jiang and Xiang Yang's three engineers smiled at the same time, and Zhang Fan smiled = Shao said: "This is Gao Tingting, the design director of our company." ”
"You haven't decided on a hotel yet, have you?"
"Not yet, we got off the plane and went straight to the address to find the company. Boss. Guo Jiang was a little nervous when asked.
Zhang Fan smiled and said, "Well, I'll help you arrange it later." Su Xiu, you go and call Mr. Zhou. By the way, I asked Yutang to come too. ”
"Okay boss." Waiting for Su Xiu to nod and leave, Zhang Fan invited the four of them to the office. After receiving a few cups of hot tea, he smiled and said, "How is the company progressing recently?" ”
"Thank you." Guo Jiang hurriedly took the water cup. A little excited: "Now the company is doing well. People are working on some of the details of the game...... We discussed expanding the recruitment work, one is to develop the second generation of "Big White Happy Farm", and the other is to develop the Android version mentioned by the boss. By the way, I would like to be able to go online with the company's mobile phone. ”
"Is it difficult to develop the Android version?" Zhang Fan asked.
Wang Min, a game engineer, said: "With the results of the previous first-generation products, the research and development should be very fast. ”
After three or two sentences, the atmosphere in the office began to become harmonious, and Zhang Fan learned an overview of "Dabai Happy Farm" from the four of them.
The trio also came this time to bring a beta version that has not yet been revised. The main thing is to show Zhang Fan the content of the game.
……
"Boss." Qian Yutang, the head of the web team design, came in.
"I'll introduce you." Zhang Fan introduced Guo Jiang and his party to him with a smile, and at this time, Zhou Yang also came from the opposite side of the micromessage.
Everyone sat down and chatted for more than 10 minutes. Zhang Fan called Wang Zhi to open two sets of rooms in Wangjiang, and said, "Guo Jiang and Xiangyang, you have been working with Yutang and their team in the past few days. ”
The four of them nodded one after another, and Zhou Yang said, "By the way, I remembered something." Is our forum also launching a mobile WAP version? Just now I read the post and saw that some netizens mentioned this article, and I think this can maximize the convenience of users to follow our forum. Nowadays, there are many people who use mobile phones to surf the Internet, and then spend some money to advertise on mobile phone browsers. It should increase the popularity of the project. ”
"Also, I think our forum is so popular, I will also consider adding news and information content in the future, and it is best to do it together with the video! Let users come and not leave, and meet their needs for social, gaming, video, and other needs in one stop. ”
Zhang Fan said with a smile: "I think it's better to split the forum." It is more suitable to set up an independent website. ”
"Haha......" Zhou Yang took the lead in laughing, and Guo Jiang and the others also laughed. When they arrived, they were always curious about what kind of company Spark would be. When they came into contact, they found that there was a unique harmony throughout the company.
Zhou Yang said: "Isn't the boss's plan to make Dabai an independent social network? By the way, how many people are registered now? ”
"Close to 40,000 registered users." Qian Yutang said.
"40,000!" Guo Jiang asked in surprise: "I read the news yesterday and said that the company's community was not launched at noon on the 3rd?" Now there are 40,000 people? ”
"Hmm." Qian Yutang said with a little pride: "From noon yesterday to noon today, 30,000 users have increased in 24 hours. From noon to now, nearly 10,000 more users have been added. It should be the reason why all the media are talking about it, and there may be a spike in today's registration after the evening. ”
Zhou Yang clapped his hands and said: "At this speed, the previous operation was really not in vain." Tomorrow 100,000 is no problem. Boss, I think we should also keep up with the footsteps of users, do our best to launch the game that should be launched, and don't delay the game. In addition, add some people to the subordinates of the 'fish pond', and it will not work without soldiers in the war. They are tired enough every day for 10 days. ”
"Hmm." Zhang Fan leaned on the table and thought: "But we can't mess with our steps, and it's not realistic to do portals like Tianshan Forum, Old Waves, and Penguin in one go." ”
"That's it, Yutang. In the past two days, we have sorted out a list of people who need to be added, and the big white mobile phone community mentioned by Mr. Zhou, as well as the forum video, are also prepared. If the server needs to be expanded, it will be expanded as much as possible. ”
"In terms of video forums, you can consider opening a video column in the navigation bar above the forum to provide netizens with video upload ......"
Thinking of this, Zhang Fan remembered some information about the 'meager video' and 'micro game' he had heard from the future broadcast, and then a set of ideas spread out in his mind.
Zhang Fan continued: "This video column is as soft as possible with the social nature of the forum. For example, netizens can 'add a video' in the SMS chat bar. After sending it to his private space, his friends can use the guò reprint function to forward the text content of his text messages and videos to their own space. And you can play the video directly in that text message. ”
"......, with '@用户', 'fan attention' and 'reprint and sharing', users can experience social sharing in a timely, fast and convenient way. Form our own 'micro-structured social network' in the Dabai community. ”
Be quiet.
After speaking, Zhou Yang, Qian Yutang, and Guo Jiang and others all looked at Zhang Fan quietly. Guo Jiang and the others listened to it with little understanding, but Zhou Yang and Yutang knew what Zhang Fan meant very well.
In the past few days, Yutang has been discussing with team members how to create a 'user social network' proposed by Zhang Fan to prepare for the transformation of the forum in the future.
In order to find a style, they also borrowed a lot of characteristics from Facebook, Twitter, and Renren, but they did not find a style that is exclusive to or applicable to the Dabai community.
The 'micro-structure social network' proposed by Zhang Fan just made Qian Yutang suddenly find the direction of the future development of the forum, and the vague ideas in his mind instantly became clear.
"I don't really understand what you mean by 'microframing social networks'." Zhou Yang said: "I know that social networking is not to create a user-to-user network communication platform. The boss means 'microarchitecture', is it a small platform? Aren't we wasting our current resources in vain? Not going to go big? ”
"Of course not. ' 'Microarchitecture' originally meant: microprocessor architecture ......"
As he spoke, Zhang Fan first told them what he had learned about the 'microstructure' and explained: "But in my case, I have another explanation. The 'micro-architecture' I am talking about is to fine-tune the big framework and big framework of social networks to design a 'big white social platform' that belongs to us. ”
"The word 'micro' is not just about fine-tuning. There is also 'tiny' as Mr. Zhou said, but tiny is not a simple small platform. ”
"There's a saying that 'a sparrow is small, but it has all the organs'. We don't need to borrow the strengths of other websites everywhere, but we need to absorb their strengths. For example, the old wave news network is very hot. Do we make a copy of one and move into the Great White Community? Youku video is well done, we also design a bloated video to stand out? ”
"When I say 'micro-framing social network', I actually mean 'flattening' the Dabai community in terms of socialization. News and video games can be done, but the bloated parts of the big sites need to be removed. The main feature of the Dabai community is social networking, and videos, games, and news are also to increase the stickiness of users. ”
"If social networking is the heart and brain of the Dabai community, then games, videos, news, applications, and shopping malls are its other internal organs."
"Got it!" Zhou Yang clapped his hands and said: "The boss means that we should also have functions, but the theme is social." And this big white social! Be small, light and fast. Just like a little sparrow. If you go around learning from others, you will carry too many things on your back and can't fly. ”
"Mr. Zhou's incisive explanation." Zhang Fan gave a thumbs up and praised.
Zhou Yang laughed and said, "When the boss said this, I was completely transparent." In the future, whether it is Dabai, Weixi, or Five Minutes, we will form our own unique place. By the way, Boss, in the future, when the Dabai community breaks away, I think it will simply be called 'sparrow'. It's easy to catch.,The image also reflects the characteristics of our forum.,You can also add it to the animation when you go back.。 ”
After hearing this, Zhang Fan nodded and said to Su Xiu: "Mr. Zhou's 'golden and jade good words' are written down, and I will print it out and hang it on the bulletin board." ”
The words fell, and there was another burst of laughter.
……
After a few jokes, everyone left the office, and Zhang Fan asked Su Xiu to call Wu Ge, who was in charge of the system.
Wu Ge is currently responsible for the entire software department, including the design of the Dabai system, and is also the person who knows Android best in the company.
Zhang Fan called him here to talk to Wu Ge about the development of the 'exclusive system'.
The future news in the morning mentioned the 'hummingbird system', and the Zhongguancun news just now said that 'Dabai's exclusive Android may be a new layer of clothes' reminded him: long-term parasitic on Android, it is better to develop your own operating system earlier.
In the future, the company is making its own system, which means that it has reached the time when it is needed, and Zhang Fan should prepare in advance since he knows it.
