Chapter 43: Contracted Chat
The Internet was first launched by foreign militaries in the 60s, and it was not until the 90s that a Chinese surnamed Chen carried out reforms, which made the simple network that existed in the local domain become the Internet in the true sense of today.
It cannot but be said that the establishment of the Internet has completely changed the world, and it has also completely changed people's way of life and way of thinking. Since the Internet entered the country, it has become popular in society, not because of any high-tech storage, but because it has begun to be used in chat and is familiar to people.
Instant messaging is also the popularity of chat software, and it cannot be said that the people who developed this software are really smart. That was to find out the temperament of the Chinese people, and the use of chat software soon blossomed all over the country.
First of all, telecommunications companies in various localities have opened information ports, and the establishment of information ports has greatly broadened people's horizons. So that people can not leave the house, and understand the information that they can't usually hear or see. And the chat rooms opened by each information port are even more lively. Luzhong City's information port is no exception, and tens of thousands of people enter the chat room every night to chat.
The fact that a chat room in an information port cannot accommodate so many people is limited by bandwidth and software storage capacity. As a result, there are countless people waiting in line at their computers to enter the chat room every night.
As soon as Luzhong City opened network broadband, Long Dan took the lead in purchasing computers and connecting to the Internet. At the beginning, Long Dan also browsed the information on the Internet, at that time, the network was not very developed, and the amount of information available for browsing was not too much. In particular, Long Dan's foreign language level is not very high, most of the foreign websites are still incomprehensible, and what can make Long Dan interested are also domestic Chinese websites, and in the first few years, the number of Chinese websites is not very large.
By chance, Long Dan heard that the information port had opened a chat room, so he registered a screen name and squeezed into the chat room. Because Long Dan's screen name was just raised, and he didn't know the rules of chatting, he was kicked out after saying a few words when he went in. Long Danqi's teeth itched, but he didn't know who kicked him out, and he was helpless. Long Dan had to take a closer look at the chat instructions to know the inside story.
It turned out that the designer of the chat was very thoughtful, and if he wanted to go in and chat, he would first soak in points. The so-called bubble score is the registered screen name in the chat room to stay up for a time, a minute is a point, a day is more than a thousand points is the primary level of level 1, if you want not to be kicked out of the chat room by others, you have to be higher than others' level, and the lowest level of kicking people is 18 levels, it takes 300,000 points, it takes about a year to soak in the chat room every day, to achieve.
This measure has indeed attracted popularity, so that the chat rooms of the information port are full every day, and it is not known how much energy Lang has spent on the electricity bill of Internet users, and the only profit is the telecommunications company. Take advantage of the huge popularity to increase the number of potential customers who install and use your own network.
Long Dan hung his screen name on the chat room of the information port every day, and watched the score slowly increase day by day. has been soaked for more than a month, and his screen name is only level 7. Long Dan couldn't hold his breath, because there were too many levels that could kick people in the chat room. I don't know how they soaked their scores up to be hungry, and their scores were surprisingly high. Long Dan thought about it and felt that this score could not be obtained by bubble points, because it had been less than a year since the establishment of the Information Port, and they couldn't reach this level even if they had bubble points every day. So Long Dan asked a friend to go to the telecommunications company to inquire. Asking who is managing the chat room of this information port, the hard work pays off, and I really let Long Dan inquire. The management information port turned out to be his own alumnus, named Zhang Rong, and the specific operation was a young man named Liu Tongle.
Long Dan first invited alumnus Zhang Rong out for dinner, and when he saw Zhang Rong coming to the banquet happily, he said to Zhang Rong: "Section Chief Zhang, we are also classmates, can you tell me about the situation in your information port chat room?" Zhang Rong said: "Brother Long, what do you want to know?" Long Dan said: "It is the operation process of the chat room." Zhang Rong saw that he was asking this, so he said: "This is very simple, that is, there is a backstage, controlled by our employee Xiao Liu, he is the highest level, he has the highest right in the chat room, he can promote others, he can also demote others, and he can also monitor not to mention chatting, so to speak, as long as it is in the chat room, the control of the background is omnipotent."
"So that's the case, the one with the high score is boiled up every day?" Long Dan still didn't quite understand, so he asked. Zhang Rong said with a smile: "Most of the high-level people are added to others by the backstage controllers, if you want to count on the bubble points, it will not be a few years?" Who would be so stupid? "I see," Long Dan woke up from a dream. Zhang Rong asked Long Dan: "My brother invited me out not just to inquire about this, right?" Long Dan smiled and said: "Originally, I was just inquiring about this, but when I heard my brother say this, I thought of an idea, I don't know if it's feasible?" ”。
Zhang Rong said: "Brother, please speak", Long Dan said: "Do you think this will work, can I contract the chat room in the information port?" "Contracting? No one really mentioned this idea before, what does my brother do in a chat room? Zhang Rong asked puzzled. Long Dan said: "It's not of great use in your hands, at most it's a place to accumulate popularity, maybe it's useful in my hands" Long Dan paused and said: "For example, if I open an advertising company, I can use your chat room."
"That's a good idea, we didn't really think of advertising in chat rooms before. In this way, I'll go back and ask the relevant leaders to see how this works, and I'll give you a letter in a few days" Zhang Rong agreed with Long Dan's idea, so he said to Long Dan: "Actually, we're tired of managing the chat room now, people come to my office every day to ask for extra points and levels, and I can't even do my job anymore, if you contract it, maybe it's a good thing, maybe the leader will agree."
When Long Dan saw Zhang Rong say this, he said to Zhang Rong: "Since my brother agrees, I will do the work of being a leader for me, I am very interested in the chat room, so please ask my brother" As he spoke, he took out a calligraphy and painting from the leather bag he brought with him and said: "This is a painting by a painter named Liu Yong in Linhai City, a member of the National Artists Association, a picture of a wild goose, which can be worth seven or eight thousand yuan on the market, and give it to my brother to enjoy." Zhang Rong is also an intellectual, naturally knows the value of calligraphy and painting, took the calligraphy and painting, unfolded it, only to see the momentum of the painting, knowing that it is a good painting, he said to Long Dan: "Thank you brother for your love, I will accept your heart." We'll see you in the chat room this week." After the two talked about business, they talked about interesting things in college, and the two were very happy.
A few days later, Zhang Rong called, saying that the leader had agreed to the construction of Longdan, and agreed that Longdan's company would underwrite the chat room, and as long as a certain fee was paid every year, the chat room in the information port would be fully controlled by Longdan's company.
After several negotiations, Long Dan's old classmate Zhang Rong also tried his best to speak for Long Dan, naturally the negotiation was one-sided, and it was agreed that Long Dan would pay a symbolic contract fee of 30,000 yuan every year, and the chat room in the information port would be used by Long Dan's company. Long Dan signed a contract with Zhang Rong and handed over the money, and Long Dan got the control of the chat room in the information port.
Long Dan contracted the information port chat room, and the reason at first was indeed to chat. But now I still have to pay money every year, so I can't lose money for no reason. Long Dan recruited three more people, set up a small advertising company, and sold the advertising rights of the chat room to 20 companies, each company charged 20,000 yuan per year, Long Dan collected 400,000 advertising revenues, and in less than a month, Long Dan's chat ads also made a profit of 370,000 yuan.
Long Dan, who got the right to control the chat room of the information port, raised his eyebrows, and then entered the chat room, raising his screen name level to the highest level, and then because he was not afraid of being kicked out by others. Now, only Long Dan bullies others, in the chat room, he is the boss, and it will be difficult for others to bully him again.
