Chapter 410: 300,000 for one number!
"Mr. Xiao, the phone has been handled, it's so expensive, at present, it is only in the municipalities and provincial capitals and some southern and coastal developed cities, and it has cost more than 100,000 yuan in total! It's another big expense. Liu Xinming grinned very painfully and said.
He didn't quite understand why Xiao Fei wanted to open a 168 voice phone with the same number in so many cities across the country.
Could it be that Xiao Fei wants to start a voice service to make money?
To say, all kinds of voice service phones are being launched now, and those that are well run are also quite profitable. However, Feixun is a high-tech network company, and the launch of voice messaging services seems to be a bit of a suspicion of not doing business.
"It doesn't matter, this money is just a small amount of money, and when the company is on the right track, it will be able to earn it back soon." Xiao Fei said with a smile.
"Mr. Xiao, what is the use of handling these voice calls?" Liu Xinming asked tentatively.
Xiao Fei hadn't told him this before.
He didn't bother.
As a professional manager, as long as you handle the things assigned by your boss properly. It's not good to have too much inquisition and too much curiosity.
Liu Xinming knows this very well. But now, he couldn't help himself.
"Mr. Liu, I am ready to launch QQ membership service, if users want to enjoy better service of Feixun Technology, and enjoy certain service privileges in the process of using QQ, then they need to buy our QQ membership business, well, a monthly service fee of 5 yuan, a one-time purchase of 6 months of membership service, can be given a one-month member, a one-time purchase of one-year membership service, can be given two months of membership, after paying can become a distinguished QQ member, and the membership privileges are currently mainly as follows: QQ level acceleration, The QQ member icon is lit up, you can use some unique fonts when chatting, you can enjoy the right to kick people in the QQ chat room, and of course, there will be more member privileges in the future. Xiao Fei said.
"But. This has something to do with voice calls...... Oh! Mr. Xiao, I know, I know, do you want to use voice phone to collect membership service fees? Is that right? Liu Xinming's face showed a look of sudden epiphany.
Now this time. Toll channels are far less convenient than in later generations.
Bank transfers are subject to a high percentage of service charges, and postal transfers are cumbersome.
If Feixun Technology wants to quickly convert the huge number of users into profit income, it must solve the problem of charging channels.
Xiao Fei thought about it and felt that the most convenient thing at present was to charge for voice calls, which was the most convenient means of charging. For customers, as long as they have a phone at hand, they can use the phone to make a voice call to pay the membership fee, which is much easier.
At this time, the 168 voice phone has developed quite maturely, and the function is still very powerful.
It is the best choice to use voice phone to deduct money and achieve the purpose of charging profits.
The reason why QQ in the previous life couldn't find too many profitable channels was that they spent too much time looking for ways to make profits, such as making money by selling QQ members and selling QQ shows. It took a few years to figure it out.
Another reason is that they haven't found the most suitable way to charge and make money from their large user base.
Xiao Fei is clear about this.
Therefore, after QQ became an instant hit, he immediately began to implement his profit plan.
Although the number of Internet users is very small now, and the country is only less than one million, the people who go online at this time can be regarded as the elite class, and if you want to make money from them, as long as the value-added services are done well, it is still very easy.
And. In the following years, it was the rapid development of the Internet, and the increase in the number of Internet users was increasing in geometric multiples.
As long as the channels to make money are unblocked, QQ's income will only continue to soar.
"Hmm!" Xiao Fei nodded.
"It costs 5 yuan a month. Isn't it too high? Liu Xinming said, "For ordinary people, it is estimated that the vast majority of people are reluctant to spend 5 yuan to buy a QQ member." ”
Xiao Fei smiled: "Mr. Liu, compared with the current Internet fee, this monthly membership fee." It's not too high, is it? ”
Now the Internet, that is definitely a high consumption, an hour of Internet cost, if you use a telephone line, the cost is often one or twenty yuan, although the use of a special line is a lot cheaper, it is also quite expensive. At this time, the people who go online are really high-income people.
"That's, that's! Nowadays, the Internet is really expensive. Liu Xinming nodded, and he self-examined, "It's because I'm too conservative to keep up with Mr. Liu's pace, and I will definitely study the market in the future and strive to keep pace with the times." ”
"Well, in fact, Mr. Liu, it's not wrong for you to think so, in terms of business, sometimes you need to be cautious and not too rash, but if you see the opportunity, you must seize it and not hesitate." Xiao Fei said.
"Yes, yes! Mr. Xiao criticized it. Liu Xinming said humbly with a smile.
Xiao Fei then held a meeting of all employees of the technology development department to understand the work process of the technology department.
Overall, under the leadership of Xia Ding, the work progress of the technical department is still quite fast.
According to Xiao Fei's plan, they have developed a QQ show and have done sophisticated offline tests, and the program is already mature.
The creation of the QQ show is definitely a genius-level idea.
In the previous life, it was the launch of the QQ Show that allowed Tencent to dig the first pot of gold and gradually began to make profits.
If there is no QQ show, then it is estimated that Tencent will continue to struggle with the mining of the money-making model.
QQ levels have also been launched half a month after QQ was launched.
Fighting monsters and upgrading, constantly becoming stronger, it can be said that it is a potential desire of human nature, which is why the vast majority of online games and online novels in later generations have adopted the mode of fighting monsters and upgrading.
After the QQ level came out, many people were very happy.
Because the longer QQ is online, the faster the level will grow, many people are used to hanging Q as soon as they go online, which also makes the online rate of QQ users continue to rise, and there are seven or eight hundred thousand QQ online at the same time every day, which is quite spectacular, which means that QQ has completely monopolized the domestic market of instant messaging software, and a small number of ICQ users have begun to give up ICQ and choose QQ.
The QQ chat room is also being tested, and it is estimated that it will be launched in a few days.
By this time, chat rooms had taken the world by storm.
There are also some regional chat rooms in China, which have been loved by netizens as soon as they appeared, and many people plunged into chat rooms to chat on the Internet.
A large group of people chatting at the same time, men and women are mixed, and you can choose to chat publicly or privately, like a huge online party.
This model is still great.
Xiao Fei knew that the chat room would be popular in China for many years, until 2009, when he finally withdrew from the rivers and lakes because of too much vulgar and illegal information, and the country began to rectify it strongly.
But now, chat rooms are definitely a very popular means of online socialization.
If QQ doesn't follow up and launch its own chat room and grow it, it will lose a big way to maintain the loyalty of its users.
Of course, there are also QQ games, Feixun portals, search engines and other products, all of which are in Xiao Fei's plan, of course, these products must be slowly developed and launched to the market step by step, and they will be launched at the same time at one time, which is not good.
Listening to Xia Ding's report, Xiao Fei was very satisfied.
"Manager Xia, I am very satisfied with your work, your technical department still has to continue to expand, and it should be subdivided into different task forces according to different products. In this matter, you report an employment plan to Liu Xinming, let him find a way to poach people, and if you have a good goal, you can also recommend it to the company. Xiao Fei said.
"Okay, Mr. Xiao." Xia Ding nodded.
"I asked the Enterprise Publicity Department to draw up a user notice, and your technical department will send it out through the QQ chat interface immediately." Xiao Fei handed over a piece of paper.
Xia Ding stretched out his hand to take it and read it first.
Surprise came over his face.
"Mr. Xiao, are you sure you want to send such a notice? It doesn't seem appropriate to sell so much money for a QQ number, right? Xia Ding said.
"It's suitable, how not suitable." Xiao Fei said with a smile.
His notice mainly includes two aspects.
On the one hand: this notice tells users that Feixun Technology is going to launch a QQ paid membership service, and the member privileges are listed one by one.
On the other hand, the notice says that Feixun Technology will sell a batch of QQ pretty accounts to users across the country.
Among them, the price of 5 8 Q numbers is as high as 300,000 yuan, 5 6 is also as high as 250,000 yuan, 5 9 is 200,000 yuan, and the cheapest number of other tractor numbers is 1,000 yuan.
When the QQ number registration system was opened, none of these beautiful numbers were released under Xiao Fei's instructions, Xiao Fei thought that it was not this day.
According to the notice, these high-priced beautiful numbers will be registered in real names, and once purchased, they will be owned forever and can be passed on like fixed assets.
Of course, the possibility of these QQ accounts being sold at such a high price is still quite small.
Xiao Fei just wants to build momentum, wants to attract the attention of the Chinese people, and wants to clearly tell everyone that QQ service is precious!
In later generations, a good QQ number is priceless, and a beautiful number is worth hundreds of thousands of yuan.
"Will others misunderstand, we are crazy about money?" Xia Ding said with a wry smile.
In today's country, there are indeed a large number of rich people, but it is estimated that few people can do such a big deal as buying a QQ number with hundreds of thousands, right? In particular, QQ has only been out for less than a month, and people are still very skeptical about whether it can survive.
"Manager Xia, don't think about it so much, this is just a marketing method, that's all! If it can be sold, it is better, if it can't be sold, it is nothing! Xiao Fei said with a smile.
"Alright then, I'll follow the instructions." Xia Ding Muran nodded.
After Xia Ding and the others left, Xiao Fei sat quietly in the office and pondered, tomorrow, the voice phone will open the business of selling QQ members, and I don't know what to do. (To be continued.) )
