Chapter 541: A New Concept: Mobile Reading
"Brother Zhang Ning, what did you say, put your creation novel on our China Mobile Dream Network to sell?"
In order to change the topic, but also to cut into their own business.
Zhang Ning quickly threw out a very creative reading concept - mobile reading.
This is the business that Zhang Ning thought of before he was in South Korea.
Back in China, Zhang Ning was the first to want to start this business.
With the continuous development of electronic technology, people have slowly changed in reading carriers. In the past, people used to read books on paper, but now they can read them electronically. For example, reading on a computer and reading on the Internet has become a popular way of reading. However, with the rapid development of mobile phones, Zhang Ning also believes that soon, people's reading methods can also gradually enter mobile reading.
"Mobile reading?"
"Yes, it's a new type of concept that means reading anytime, anywhere."
"I know that. It's just, according to what you said, reading with a mobile phone, this, isn't it too inconvenient? ”
Wang Jianzhou did not have the habit of reading on the move, and likewise, he did not experience the habit of reading on the move. Subconsciously, his favorite thing is to read paper books. Even now you can read on the computer, but he still thinks that the mainstream is still mainly paper-based reading, and it hurts your eyes to watch it for too long on the computer. Moreover, mobile phone reading is technically possible. However, how can he use such a small screen to read novels?
"Why is it inconvenient, Brother Wang, you can read text messages on your mobile phone, if we stretch the text messages a little longer, it will become an article and a novel. Moreover, it is not impossible to watch so much news on the Internet on mobile phones now, and it is not impossible to read novels. ”
As he spoke, Zhang Ning took out his mobile phone.
Tong guò on his own mobile phone, chose a novel to read online.
This is a site of Genesis, through the Guò mobile phone access to the Wèn Genesis mobile website point, users can use their mobile phones to read novels. However, because Genesis is only a Chinese station after all, he does not have a channel to promote users. Therefore, there are not many users who use mobile phones to access the Wèn Genesis mobile site.
Then, at this time, it is necessary to cooperate with China Mobile.
China Mobile's Monternet business covers almost all mobile phone users.
This is a market of hundreds of millions of mobile phone users, and the most important thing is that he has not tapped it at all.
"Brother Wang, you see, I'm just reading on my mobile phone now."
Holding the mobile phone, Zhang Ning pointed to the typeset novel on the mobile phone and said to Wang Jianzhou.
It's just that Wang Jianzhou still doesn't have much interest.
"The words are so small, even if they can be read clearly, it doesn't seem inconvenient."
"Convenient, of course."
Although the current experience is somewhat inferior, it is not as good as the smartphones of later generations, and the screen is also very small. But in any case, such a function is still realized. The most important thing is that he can read anytime and anywhere, "Brother Wang, the so-called mobile reading, that is, you can read at any time and at any time." You think, we're going on a business trip, or waiting for a car, and there's too much boredom in the car. At this time, what if we want to read? You can't always go out with a book every day, it's too much of a hassle and it's also heavier. However, holding a mobile phone will do the trick. As long as you enter our website, you can read it anytime and anywhere, which is very convenient. Even when you have nothing to do before bed, you can take out your phone and read it. ”
"Brother Zhang Ning, I'll forget it."
Wang Jianzhou still shook his head, "It's not that I'm not interested in your business, although the mobile reading you mentioned does look good." But, as far as I know, your creation, so far, has not been very profitable. In other words, the profit is relatively small. Not only that, but the entire online novel market is still very small, and it doesn't make sense for us to get in. ”
China Mobile is a giant company. Perhaps, for some small companies, mobile reading or just fiction-type websites such as genesis are also a huge market. But for China Mobile, he only thinks that this is a small market.
However, Zhang Ning is deeply aware that when the future generation really enters the era of mobile reading, taking 2014 as an example, China's mobile novel reading market will reach as much as 10 billion. Although 10 billion is still a big difference from the mobile phone bill, a small classified novel business with a mobile dream reaches more than 10 billion, which can be said to be a miracle. Moreover, such a market is still growing rapidly in the future.
Of course, Wang Jianzhou could not have seen the popularity of the mobile reading market in later generations, and it was even less likely for him to know that many people who did not read novels in later generations have also become mobile reading users under the opening of the mobile reading market. Of course, Wang Jianzhou can't be blamed for this. In fact, mobile reading has become a completely new Internet concept.
The world Internet in 2002 was still just a new thing, not to mention the mobile Internet era that mobile reading had entered. With such a business, he seems to be a little ahead of his time.
However, it doesn't matter if it's ahead of its time. Zhang Ningdu believes that now he does have a chance to enter.
"Brother Zhang Ning, it's not me who hits your business. In fact, on the one hand, it is more difficult to promote your business. And, as I said earlier, the whole market is relatively small. In addition, the speed of mobile phone Internet access is still relatively slow. Or you wait, when we launch the 3G business, I think this will be a matter of course. ”
3g, damn it.
Zhang Ning scolded in his heart.
Later, China's 3G license was issued in 2008, and it will take at least five or six years to enter the 3G era.
With this time, mobile reading has long been very mature.
"Brother Wang, otherwise, you don't want to enter this market for the time being, you can sell this business to our penguins. In other words, as long as you implant the business of online novels in Monternet, we will pay you a similar rent every year. That is to say, you don't need to take care of the system, promotion, and all the operations inside, as long as we do it, you see how it is. ”
"This ......"
Wang Jianzhou seemed to be thinking about it, but after a while, he said, "Brother Zhang Ning, this is not in line with the rules of our movement, I can't reply to you so quickly for the time being." ”
"Okay, but, I think, Mr. Wang, this is a new way of thinking. In the future, you Mobile can develop Montnets business, you only need to build a mature platform and let other merchants operate it themselves. ”
"That's a good idea."
Wang Jianzhou nodded.
China Mobile is only good at communication business, and they are not good at business outside communication.
Although Montnets is also one of the communication businesses, Wang Jianzhou often feels that they are not very good at running this website, because it involves the Internet. However, this is an additional business developed by mobile communications, and it is impossible for him to hand it over to others to operate. So, they have to run it all the time. But now Zhang Ning mentioned that China Mobile is responsible for making the platform and letting other businesses operate it themselves, which seems to be a good solution.
