Zhou Shengjun hurriedly turned off the recording of the Spring Festival Gala on the computer, and then opened his usual program development platform, and talked about his creative ideas with saliva. Storm Audio, a free shareware that is gradually coming into the sight of netizens, is still relatively weak, but it is undeniable that it is lightweight, multi-format compatible, and very easy to use.

There are only three people in the storm team, the other two are his students, who have gone home for the New Year, and he chose to stay in Yanjing in order to save the ticket back to his hometown in the northeast, fighting alone, and just made a software update on the eve of the Spring Festival.

"Have you ever thought about Storm's profit model?" Chen Bo asked, "You can't stay in the basement all the time, it's not fair to you." ”

"Well, I'm going to hold on for a while and see if I can bind some plugins to other websites, which will also reduce some of the pressure." Zhou Shengjun's situation is obviously very embarrassing, and he is still a little restrained in the face of Chen Bo, who is already a big man in the Internet industry.

"How about joining the team of ants? Condition you open. Chen Bo explained his intentions, "It is difficult to make money from shareware, everyone knows that binding plug-ins is a good way out, but it will also ruin its reputation." ”

"Team Ants?" Zhou Shengjun was like in a dream, "This ...... That ......"

"5 million, join with your workgroup and products, have a stable salary, an open environment, and future option protection. The most important thing is to get you out of the current situation. Seeing that he was hesitant, Chen Bo knew that he had no bottom in his heart, so he simply took the initiative to offer him a price that he couldn't refuse.

“5…… 500？ Ten thousand?? Zhou Shengjun's mouth opened wide, and he almost stuffed a goose egg.

"Yes, if you can, you can sign an agreement to pay tomorrow."

"I agree, but I want to have autonomy in development."

"No problem, pack up and get ready to move." Chen Bo patted him on the shoulder and walked out of this place that could only be called a "nest".

The reason why Storm Video has become a popular player is due to its strong multi-functional compatibility, and there are more users, which is naturally a huge traffic entrance. Around the entrance of the computer desktop, all major engines are fighting desperately, how could Chen Bo miss such an opportunity.

Zhou Shengjun got his due remuneration, and officially joined Yanjing's branch to continue to preside over the development of Storm Audio.

There are many free shareware like this, and most of the developers behind them are living in embarrassment, some succeeding, and some can only sell cheaply. In 2000, Kingsoft once threw an olive branch to many excellent software developers, but the price was really not flattering. The lowest is 3,000 yuan, and the most expensive is 50,000 yuan, which is almost the same as blood sucking.

In addition to Storm, he won an open source browser called MyIE2, which is a bit awkward to hear the name, but in the future he will have a name called "Travel". This browser can only end its mission early, because it has been merged into the development team of the Chinese version of Firefox.

Before the end of the year, Chen Bo began his own work, these two low-key small acquisitions did not alarm many people, after all, he and his close to $1 billion acquisition of the world's largest digital map provider, is really not worth mentioning, not even a hair.

"I'm sorry I can't spend Valentine's Day with you." Chen Bo took Chen Jinyu's little hand at the airport and said goodbye to Gao Yuanyuan, it is now the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, he wants to go back to Shanghai first, deal with the things over there and then go back to the United States, and by the way, return the little girl to Zhao, so he naturally missed February 14th a few days later. As for the board meeting of Pangu Group, it was changed to a video conference, and he is still a little uncomfortable psychologically, and he doesn't even want to see Gao Dongqing in person, anyway, adding board seats is just going through the motions.

"With you, isn't it Valentine's Day?" Gao Yuanyuan said thoughtfully, "I also have to work that day, take care of myself more outside, and don't mess with flowers." ”

"What is a mess of flowers?" Chen Jinyu interjected.

"Uh...... You'll understand when you're older. Chen Bo touched her head awkwardly, then turned around and walked into the security channel under Gao Yuanyuan's gaze.

"You can count it, a guy has been here for a long time, and he just doesn't want to leave." As soon as he arrived at the office of the Kerry Center, before he turned on the computer, Zou Tao rushed in.

"Don't worry, say it slowly, who is so persistent?" Chen Bo asked.

"A Vietnamese who wants to represent our game." Zou Tao said the urn.

"Then give it to him, why can't you get along with the money?"

"The point is that he's a poor ghost, only a newly registered company, and only 300,000 US dollars in capital, which is not even enough to deploy a server, right? Not to mention the cost of publicity. Zou Tao said angrily, "But he still doesn't leave, he is focused on this ink, as long as we go to work, he comes every day, but it annoys me to death." ”

"Let him come to me, I'll see what this nail household looks like, and I'll make you crazy." Chen Bo said with a smile, someone who insists like this is either a paranoid or a psychopath.

This kind of person has advantages and disadvantages, either they soar into the sky, or they are easy to bring down the company. So, he became interested.

After a while, a strange man walked into his office, a little dark and thin, but the suit was straight and quite energetic.

"Hello, my name is Li Hongming, please take care of me." The person who came spoke proficient English and handed over the business card with both hands, Chen Bo took a look at the position of "CEO of Vinagame" in the book, which is more remembered than Vietnam in Vietnam, but this is not an abbreviation, there is no special meaning, but it is convenient and easy to remember.

Vietnam, like North Korea and South Korea, is deeply influenced by the Han culture of the Central Plains, and this surname is naturally imitated. The top five surnames of Ruan, Chen, Li, Fan, and Huang are not surprising. They also use Chinese characters, such as couplets on important occasions, and practice calligraphy on a daily basis, similar to Korea, but they rarely speak Chinese.

"As far as I know, Vietnam is also going to celebrate the Spring Festival, and I'm curious why you want to stay in Shanghai." Chen Bo said casually, and did not directly ask him about his intention.

"In our country, the Spring Festival is a very grand festival. This is also the first time I spent the Spring Festival abroad, now China's reform and opening up is doing very well, the economy is developing rapidly, one is to get the agency authorization as soon as possible, and the other is to experience a more traditional Spring Festival. Li Hongming is neither humble nor arrogant, and it can be seen that he has a higher education, otherwise he would not be fluent in English.

"What did you do before?"

"I'm an accountant at PricewaterhouseCoopers, and I've been working on Hong Kong Island."

Sure enough, the four major firms are not so easy to enter, which also verifies Chen Bo's idea. PwC is no stranger, and is now a global partner, and if you want to check his phone call, you can know if it is true or false, but there is no need for this at the moment.

"Then why choose to start a business and choose the direction of online games, as if your capital is not enough to support operating costs."

"Vietnam has a population of 90 million, 7 million Internet users, and it will continue to increase in the future. Much like the Chinese market, we are also actively exploring reform and opening up. Despite the impact of the Asian financial crisis, the economy is gradually improving. At present, there are not many Internet companies, and they mainly use foreign websites. Fengyun OL, operated by a Thai company, is sought after by many young people in China, and the business model of online games is clear, so I can use this money to invest in comprehensive Internet services such as web portals to build my own Internet company. ”

Li Hongming came as soon as he opened his mouth, obviously a draft that had been typed a long time ago, full of confidence, and then said.

"I've reached an agreement with Viettel, a telecommunications service company in Vietnam, to rent a broadband computer room for free and apply to Dell to try out their servers. So the upfront cost is not a problem, you just need to put a little effort into publicity. ”

Chen Bo has already seen that this kid is purely a fan of Chen Tianqiao, and this trick is exactly the same. It was only after reading the report that he learned that the grand boss who won the legendary agent was a poor jingle at the time, and he flickered the two major companies one after another to put up the shelf, and then it developed like a rocket.

It's a pity that it was too late to know the news, otherwise it would have been a good profit if I had invested in the past earlier. If you want to intervene again, the cost is too high, and the profit is limited, so you just give up this idea.

"It's very planned, I don't know if you have thought of another cooperation model?"

"If Mr. Chen is willing to invest in my company, then I welcome it with both hands." Li Hongming opened his mouth and came.

This is really TMD, worthy of being an employee of the Big Four, just like a roundworm in his stomach, he is a little suspicious that this is the real purpose of his death here. But he doesn't mind, ambitious people are motivated.

"For $1 million, I want 20% of the shares. This is just one of them, in addition, I also authorize you to act as an agent for Ant Search and its business and support you to set up a Vietnamese portal, if you do well in the early stage, I will make additional investment in the later stage, and it is not a problem to support you to land on the NASDAQ" Chen Bo gave a sweet date, and did not forget to give another big stick, "If you fail, I will choose other agents." ”

"Thank you very much for your trust, I won't let you down." Li Hongming immediately jumped up from the sofa, as if a spring was installed on his buttocks, and with a 90-degree bow, he said excitedly.

"It was your plan that struck me, and I love working with smart people." Chen Bo said, "I will ask someone to take the initiative to contact you and go home to enjoy the Spring Festival." ”

This part of Vietnam, as anyone who has read history, knows that it is very dishonest. Far less obedient than the Joseon Dynasty, it's the opposite if it's okay all day long. Born in East Asia, a region with super hard game difficulty, it is also a hard dick.

And unlike other Southeast Asian countries, there are not many Chinese in this place, and they still moved in very early, with a population of less than one million, compared to 90% of the Jing people, which is pitiful. The widows of small countries will always have a sense of inferiority, don't they always feel inferior in front of Europe and the United States, and even more so in small countries, and the events of the late 70s will not be mentioned first.

Disputes in the South China Sea often cause friction, don't look at my rabbit's internal image is always condemned, in fact, in Southeast Asia, no one can provoke the lord, it is not an exaggeration to use the word "arrogant", anyway, the nine-dash line is drawn on the face of Malaysia, the door of the Philippines. Most of the accusations in the European and American media are because of the strength here, and there is little mention of it internally, after all, the fact that the 10,000-ton fishery administration ship overturned a small sampan is not too glorious.

Of course, when I see the motherland so hooligan, I am relieved.

But since you want to enter this market, you naturally have to be cautious, and Vietnam also has patriotic thieves. So this investment can't be in his name, let's let the Milhouse Foundation invest in the curve, and make Abu's local tyrant friend cheaper.
