Chapter 007 [Targeted by an old horse? 】
"it!"
Early this morning, Xu Yong in the 407 dormitory woke up Luo Sheng, who was sleeping with a sigh of surprise, and immediately scolded and reprimanded.
"You're caught in the door?"
Xu Yong ignored him, but stared at the background data and said excitedly: "The number of visits has reached 22,000, and the number of registered users has reached more than 6,000. ”
Xu Yong was taken aback when he saw the background data, don't look at the 22,000 visits and more than 6,000 users, this data is indeed not a big number, but the entire university is only more than 20,000 people, in just one week, more than a quarter of the students have registered blue space accounts, the key is that there is basically no publicity.
Xu Yong was pleasantly surprised by this growth rate, and Luo Sheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief, this popularity shows that his judgment is completely correct, and Facebook's model is indeed feasible in the current environment in China.
"Every time a new user is refreshed, there is a new user registration, which shows that Company B is very popular on campus." Xu Yong said excitedly.
Most of the students on campus have started to sign up for accounts, volunteering to provide their personal information such as name, address, hobbies, and photos. Students on campus are increasingly using Community B, a free platform to keep abreast of their friends' latest news, chat with friends, search for new friends, and so on.
Luo Sheng also turned on his computer, entered the background program, glanced at it and said: "According to this trend, more than 90% of the students in the school will join Club B in the next two weeks or so, and the number of user registrations will reach as many as 20,000, and some will be busy next." ”
B is a social networking platform based on user relationships and sharing mechanisms, on which users will share a large amount of content, and the data will skyrocket.
Luo Sheng: "You look at the website, and continue to optimize the website, don't let the user surge crash the website." ”
Xu Yong immediately said: "You need a server, otherwise it will collapse sooner or later." ”
Luo Sheng nodded: "The server must not be delayed, we must rent a server as soon as possible, I will solve this matter, it seems that we have to move the nest, and if necessary, we have to recruit some additional manpower." ”
The company's current funds are only about 200,000 yuan, which seems to be a lot in this era, but Luo Sheng knows very well that the Internet industry will never spend this money.
Renting a server costs about 800~1000 yuan, and it is impossible to live in the dormitory all the time, you must rent a studio, and you don't need too much space at this stage, about 100 square meters is enough, about 600 yuan / month, as long as the house below 1000 Luo Sheng can accept it.
Money in this era is still worth a lot so far.
The other is to recruit manpower, and now the two of them still have no problem coping with it, but Luo Sheng treats Bluestar Technology as a real career, and it is a matter of time before he recruits manpower.
The current situation must be based on local materials, and finding helpers from the school can also save a lot of money.
Luo Sheng finished explaining the matter and left the school to look for a house and a server outside.
……
City.
"Mr. Ma, are you looking for me?"
In the CEO's office at the company's headquarters, a man in formal clothes knocked on the door, his name is Xu Chenghua, one of the co-founders of Tengxun Company, is a very easy-going person who has his own opinions but does not express them easily, the famous "Mr. Yes", his biggest hobby is to chat with people, and his interests are diverse.
Brother Xiaoma, who was sitting in the CEO's office, said seriously: "There is a news from the company's office in Shencheng that a new social networking site called Fuda has suddenly become popular. ”
Hearing this, Xu Chenghua said curiously: "? I've never heard of a new social networking site, so what's so special about it? It can actually arouse such a great interest from Mr. Ma. ”
Brother Xiao Ma nodded silently and said: "It is very special, it can be said that it is completely opposite to QQ, but it has been a great success in Fuda, and the number of visits on campus has reached 22,000 or even higher." ”
Xu Chenghua couldn't help but show a surprised expression when he heard this: "You said that there were 22,000 visits on the campus of Fuda alone? ”
As the company's senior management, it is natural to know very well what the concept of 22,000 visits is, the number is indeed not large, and QQ is not comparable, but QQ is a national perspective, and the blue space is only in a university of more than 20,000 people in the intranet of the school to create a number of visits, which is incredible.
Mr. Ma said: "I also learned about this website today, they are commonly known as B community, or B society, or blue space, only college students use this, but after learning about this website, it is really amazing." The above users actually put their mobile phone numbers, home addresses and other private information related to themselves on the B company, incredible! ”
Xu Chenghua couldn't help but be stunned for a moment when he heard this.
Mr. Ma added: "This shows that B has won the trust of users, this is a new social platform based on real names, and QQ is diametrically opposed, we are a social platform built on a virtual basis." Another point of interest is that Blue Space was founded by a student at Fudan University who registered a start-up company called Bluestar Technology ten days ago. ”
"A young man born in the 80s, with a very simple idea, in a simpler way, faster speed, less investment to achieve success, at least in the University of Fu, since in this university can be successful, then in other universities are also very likely to succeed, for their achievements to have a little awe."
Xu Chenghua couldn't help but look sideways when he heard this number, nodded, and said, "It makes sense." ”
Mr. Ma continued: "I have created Tengxun, and I have dominated the market in the field of instant messaging, but we are not successful, the company seems to have entered a stable period, user growth has slowed down, and recently I am trying to find a new direction for the future development, and the blue space has appeared." ”
Xu Chenghua pondered for a moment when he heard this, and seemed to think of something, and immediately looked at Mr. Ma in astonishment, and hurriedly said: "Mr. Ma, the core gene of the blue space is completely contrary to QQ, should you want to ......?"
Mr. Ma knew what he wanted to say, shook his head and said: "Of course, I don't think that QQ is on the wrong path just because I see the blue space that suddenly appears, and the social platform built on the virtual foundation has a lot to do, which I never doubt." ”
Xu Chenghua relented when he heard this, the company is actively preparing for the listing, at this time, if Mr. Ma suspects that the company is on the wrong path, and even wants to make a big rudder, investors will question and the members of the company will think that he is crazy, and Teng Xun's IPO plan next year will definitely be cold.
Mr. Ma continued: "I firmly believe that QQ is on the right path, but what I want to know more is whether Blue Space, an Internet social network based on reality, is also on the right path, which is contrary to QQ, but how to explain that Blue Space has become popular almost overnight in Fuda?" ”
Xu Chenghua wanted to stop talking, because he found that this was a confusing question, especially for Teng Xun.
