"Okay, let's digest it slowly."

Zhang Ning is not in a hurry. In fact, Zhang Ning couldn't be in a hurry if he wanted to. If something is in someone else's hands, if you want him to sell it, you can only fool him into selling it to yourself. However, even if he is not in a hurry now, Zhang Ning does not want to wait for Ma Huateng to think it through completely. He was going to call Ma Huateng in the next few days and ask them for the acquisition.

Fukasei City.

Tencent Information Technology Co., Ltd.

said that it was a limited company, but in fact, there were not many people in the company, plus Ma Huateng, Zhang Zhidong and a few other friends, there were only 5 people. Of course, even if there are 5 people now, they feel that the number is okay. After all, Tencent doesn't have any other business at the moment, only operating an instant messenger called OICQ.

However, now they are also experiencing great difficulties in their operations.

Servers alone are a big expense every month, not to mention, the cost of fiber usage for telecommunications.

Although Ma Huateng's conditions are good, his family background still has some background. However, Ma Huateng is not that kind of big family after all. No matter how good the family is invested in the bottomless pit of the Internet, it will soon be difficult to help. Now on Ma Huateng, there are only two ways to go...... Either sell OICQ, or go out of business for a few more months.

Obviously, going out of business is something they don't want. But to sell OICQ, Ma Huateng is a little reluctant.

After all, now is no more than before. Previously, Ma Huateng and his partner Zhang Zhidong did think about selling OICQ, and even, not only thought about it, but also sold it. Unfortunately, no one was interested in this instant messaging at the time. For this reason, this instant messaging that was not sold had to be kept here. But I didn't think about it, after a period of development. OICQ already has 10,000 or 20,000 concurrent online users, which is also a big achievement.

This made Ma Huateng see a glimmer of hope and felt that if he could hold on, there was still hope for the future.

However, Ma Huateng is in a very bad mood now, very bad.

Just now he was chatting with a senior in the computer industry, but he didn't think about it, but the senior pointed it out directly with an extremely vicious eye. Their OICQ is not outstanding, and not only will they not be very competitive in the future. Moreover, even the entire instant messaging market does not have much potential for profitability in the future. If you want to keep doing it for free, and you don't want to make money all the time, that's another story.

Although Ma Huateng didn't want to believe it in his heart, he didn't have any reason to refute it.

Yes, that senior's vision is too powerful, and moreover, too professional. When he talks about instant messaging features. A few functions casually said were eye-opening to Ma Huateng. For example, he mentioned that if OICQ introduces a handwriting input setting, I am afraid it will be a big competition. However, this technique is very difficult. Whether it is domestic or foreign, handwriting input still requires a certain hardware device to drive, and it seems that it cannot be achieved by software alone.

Anyway, though. The senior mentioned that instant messaging handwriting input is already a big innovation, if it can really be realized. I'm afraid this will be a very powerful attraction for many new netizens who can't type now.

His heart was very confused, Ma Huateng made a phone call and called his partner Zhang Zhidong over.

Zhang Zhidong is a classmate of Ma Huateng at Shencheng University, but Ma Huateng didn't study until he was an undergraduate, but Zhang Zhidong went to graduate school. The source code of OICQ, including the interface architecture, is the responsibility of Zhang Zhidong.

"Zhidong, take a look at these paragraphs."

"Who is this?"

"That white jade hall of the Tianya Forum."

"Oh, is that Bai Yutang that Ding Lei mentioned last time?"

"Yes."

At an Internet party, Ma Huateng met Ding Lei. Of course, Tencent only participated in that party as a small role, and it could not be compared with the three major portals that were in the limelight. When chatting at that time, Ding Lei specifically mentioned the Bai Yutang of the Tianya Forum. said that this Bai Yutang is definitely a hidden master, but he just doesn't know who it is. Subsequently, Ma Huateng and Zhang Zhidong also watched him on Tianya.

It wasn't until some time later that they found out.

Although Bai Yutang didn't talk much on the Tianya Forum, every reply was thought-provoking and made them admire.

"Hey, how did you add him?"

"It's a long story, you read what he said first."

"Hmm."

Zhang Zhidong looked through Ma Huateng's chat history, and after ten minutes, Zhang Zhidong fell into deep thought.

"Zhidong, what do you think of what he said?"

"This ......"

Zhang Zhidong didn't know what to say.

"Let's talk about it, we're in the most difficult time now, let's just say anything."

"I think he's talking in a heavier tone, but it seems like that's the future of instant messaging. And, one of the things he said was critical. That is, instant messaging is not profitable. And the way we thought of monetizing advertising before, now it looks like he can't make a profit. For example, ICQ has hundreds of times more users than we do, but they are not profitable yet. ”

Zhang Zhidong is from a technical background, and his considerations for technology are more realistic.

"It seems, Zhidong, you think so too."

"What do you think?"

"That's what I thought, too. It's just that I just feel a little weird. ”

"What's the blame?"

"I don't know."

Ma Huateng shook his head, but he didn't understand it in his heart.

I knew that Yutang was very reasonable, and he had no reason to refute it, but why did he still feel strange.

"So what do we do now?"

"What to do?"

"It's ......"

Zhang Zhidong didn't continue, but Ma Huateng already knew what he meant.

"I've been in contact with 21 websites before and feel like they're interested in buying our OICQ. What do you mean? ”

The idea of selling OICQ has long been discussed with Ma Huateng and Zhang Zhidong, including other partners. Zhang Zhidong didn't feel anything about it, although he didn't want to sell this software either. But do they really feel like they don't know what to do in the future? Moreover, they are now struggling with their finances. If you don't think about it, I'm afraid you can only go out of business in the end.

"21 funds are there, but they shouldn't give us much. Moreover, 21 wanted to sell OICQ to them completely, but I still don't quite approve of it. ”

"I mean the same as you, although we say sell, we still have to keep a certain amount of shares."

"Would you like to talk to them again?"

"Okay."

It's a new day.

Although Zhang Ning was thinking about buying OICQ, Zhang Ning still had to ride a bicycle to No. 2 Middle School at this time.

However, even when he arrived at school, Zhang Ning was still thinking about the future of instant messaging.

What if Little Pony doesn't sell?

Although he fooled Brother Pony yesterday, Zhang Ning didn't dare to guarantee whether he would sell it.

Forget it, don't think about it.

It should be Brother Xiao Ma who is in a hurry now, why is he in a hurry.

Putting aside his thoughts, Zhang Ning was about to take out his textbook and review it.

The college entrance examination is not a joke, although during this period of time, Zhang Ning asked himself that the knowledge points of high school have been fully mastered. But it is usually very powerful, and there are many people who have accidents in the college entrance examination. Zhang Ning didn't want to fail again in the college entrance examination after starting over for a lifetime. It's better to put down other things and review with peace of mind when you come to school.

"Huh......"

As soon as I picked up the textbook, I suddenly found that Shen Jiayi on the side seemed to be a little different from usual.

Strange, how did she get asleep?

There's nothing wrong with that.

Shen Jiayi, who has always been very serious and hard-working, actually slept during self-study.

This discovery made Zhang Ning very happy, but he didn't expect that Xueba would also be lazy. Like a prank in his heart, Zhang Ning snorted softly on the side and said, "The head teacher is here." ”

This sentence is very effective, Zhang Ning just shouted, Shen Jiayi immediately raised his head, and his mouth was still muttering from time to time, "I didn't sleep, I didn't sleep, I didn't sleep." Such an expression made Zhang Ning on the side couldn't help laughing, "Beauty, you also have a day of sleeping in class." ”

Thinking about the situation when she was stabbed with a pen cap in her sleep before, and now it is Shen Jiayi's turn, this feeling is really amazing.

"Zhang Ning, it turns out that you are lying to me again."

Seeing Zhang Ning's snickering, Shen Jiayi realized that he had been spoofed.

"How could I lie to you, it's self-study now, you're the top in the class, you have to be responsible, where can you sleep."

"Well, I don't want to."

Wiping her eyes that were a little sleepy, Shen Jiayi said softly, "I reviewed until 3 o'clock last night, and I didn't sleep well." ”

"No, you're desperate."

Zhang Ning was dumbfounded.

"If you don't work hard, you can't do it, just like you, don't you also review until 3 o'clock?"

"When did I say that?"

"Last time, in Garden Bay, don't you say you lied to me again?"

"This, this ......"

Zhang Ning was speechless, he just found a random reason last time. In fact, Zhang Ning has never reviewed to 3 points. At most, the code code reached 3 o'clock over.

"What this and that, I don't want to lose to you again in the college entrance examination."

"Could it be that you just review until 3 o'clock every day for this?" Zhang Ning felt that the little girl's competitiveness was too strong, "Besides, I haven't won much against you." You see, in the past few years of high school, which exam you didn't have the first in the class, I was just lucky last time. ”

"No matter, I just don't want to lose to you anyway." After saying this, Shen Jiayi looked at Zhang Ning and said, "Do you think you can still win me in the next mock test?" ”

"Win you?"

Zhang Ning shook his head, "I didn't think about it, and I didn't think about it." "If you are still thinking when you were a teenager, maybe Zhang Ning will be quite interested in scores such as exams. At the same time, for competition such as classmates, they may also be more desperate. But Zhang Ning, who has come again, doesn't pay too much attention to the exam and scores.

"Why don't we make a bet?"

"What bet?"

"If I win you, you promise me one condition?"

"Lost."

"If you lose, then I will promise you one condition."

"Well, although I find your bet boring, I promise you. But what do you want me to agree to? ”

"Well, it doesn't matter if you sue you first. I think your hair is too long, so it's good to get a haircut. ”

Hair?

Touching some of the hair that covered his face, Zhang Ning felt that the hair was indeed a little long, "Okay, if I lose, I'll go get a bald haircut." ”

"Don't don't, it's not good to look bald, just keep it short."

"That'll do fine."

Agreed, Zhang Ning prepared to review again.

It's just that Shen Jiayi asked again, "Why don't you say your conditions." ”

"My conditions." Zhang Ning thought about it, he didn't care about this bet at all, where would he think of any conditions, so he said, "I don't have any conditions." ”

"No, since it's a bet, then you have to put forward a condition, otherwise you won't gamble."

"Okay, okay, I'll think again."

was thinking about what conditions to mention, when he suddenly saw Shen Jiayi's right hand on the table. His eyes lit up suddenly, and he said evilly, "I feel that your hands are very easy to see, if I win, how about letting me touch them?" ”
