The Internet began in the United States in 1969 and is also known as the Internet??? ?One? See?? Book? LOOK·1?K?A?N?S?H?U?· Initially, COM was only used for computer connections between universities, but later a number of companies and laboratories joined the network, and the network gradually expanded.

In 1992, the first companies appeared to provide online web services to customers, such as e-mail services, and the Internet entered the mass age.

China began to explore the Internet in 1987, and in April this year, it was fully connected to the Internet, becoming the 77th member of the international Internet family. Hong Kong is relatively early, some large companies have been connected to the Internet last year, such as several major companies under Kang Jianfei, middle and high-level employees can use the Internet to send emails.

It's a very fashionable thing for young people in Hong Kong, and some people even pay a lot of money to send emails just to experience that high-tech way of communicating.

Don't think that Chen Baixiang is just an artist, this guy used to open a garment factory and earned tens of millions of dollars by doing business, when it was still the 70s, and the annual box office champion of Hong Kong films was only 3 million.

Chen Baixiang has the courage to try new things, and recently he has been eyeing the Internet, and has teamed up with Anita Mui, Tan Yonglin and others to create a star information website.

Five years after its establishment, the website developed into an Oriental Charm Company, and attracted big stars such as Cheng Long to join it, and successfully listed in Hong Kong to raise funds, with a market value of 2.5 billion Hong Kong dollars at its peak. Oriental Charm Company changed hands many times, and later split into two, respectively developed into the industry's famous Xingmei International and Han Media Group.

Hearing Kang Jianfei suddenly ask about the website, Chen Baixiang was a little embarrassed.

Nowadays, there are very few ordinary Internet users, and Chen Baixiang's Oriental Charm Network is called a star information website, but it is impossible to make a profit by posting gossip information star news. To read the book ???· 1?K?A book NSHU COM to be precise, this website is actually a celebrity intermediary platform, and some companies can contact Chen Baixiang through the website and ask him to act as an intermediary to invite celebrities to attend business activities.

To put it bluntly, it is the direct contact between the business and the star, bypassing the Oriental Entertainment Agency to take private work.

This is simply digging the corner of Kang Jianfei's wall, and now that he has been caught and asked, Chen Baixiang is like a thief who has been caught, and said with a red face: "Mr. Kang, I didn't expect you to be interested in the Internet." Well, I just made a fuss, and when I got back, I shut down the website. ”

As Chen Baixiang said, this is really a small fight. The business of the website is just inviting celebrities to cut ribbons and participate in cocktail parties, and the real big list, he didn't dare to take it randomly if Chen Baixiang was given ten dares.

Kang Jianfei asked people to investigate, of course, he also knew about this situation, he asked with a smile: "Is the Internet fun?" ”

"It's fun," Chen Baixiang was relieved when he saw that Kang Jianfei didn't intend to pursue it, and said, "The Internet can not only send emails, but also play cards and chess. There's a game called Night in Winterfell that's particularly fun, and it's based on the rules of DND. Mr. Kang, do you know DND? ”

"Yes, Dungeons & Dragons." Kang Jianfei had only heard of the name and knew a rough idea, but he didn't understand the specific details at all.

Chen Baixiang had a kind of joy when he met a fellow practitioner, he said: "I didn't expect Mr. Kang that you also play the DND game, I asked my friends to play together, and they haven't even heard of it." ”

At this moment, the gong suddenly opened in the arena, and more than a dozen racing horses rushed out of the barrier.

Chen Baixiang's attention was attracted by the horse race, and the emperor's demeanor under his name was relatively backward at the beginning, and he suddenly ran wild in the middle of the year.

"Come on, hurry up, hurry up!"

"Hurry up with the emperor's demeanor, hurry up a little faster, and you're going to catch up!"

"Rush Rush Rush !!"

Chen Baixiang's whole person was already crazy, he stood up and waved his fist and shouted loudly, shouting so that his face was red and his neck was thick, and he looked like a gambler.

In the last ten meters, the emperor's demeanor suddenly accelerated to overtake and become the head horse. Just when Chen Baixiang thought that he was sure to win the championship, the horse that was originally in third place suddenly sprinted to catch up as if he had taken medicine.

The two horses reached the finish line at the same time, and countless spectators who participated in the horse betting were dumbfounded.

In the end, through the slow motion camera, it was found that the No. 8 horse was a little faster than the king's demeanor, and he was the first to cross the line to win the championship, and Chen Baixiang's horse only won the second place.

"Alas!"

Chen Baixiang sighed, happy and disappointed. Naturally, he was disappointed that his horse failed to win the championship, and he was happy that the royal demeanor would definitely be promoted.

Kang Jianfei bought the emperor's style and won alone, and 100,000 yuan was directly lost. He didn't care about this, betting on horses was just for fun, and only after Marseille was over did he get down to business: "Alak, sell me your Oriental Charm Network." ”

"What?" Chen Baixiang thought he had misheard.

Kang Jianfei repeated: "I said, sell me your Oriental Charm Network, and I will bid 2 million." ”

"Yes." Chen Baixiang agreed directly without thinking about it.

He started the website on a whim, and now there are too few Internet users to make money. Even if you rely on the website to take private jobs for celebrities, that amount of money will not be able to break even, and you will lose at least 100,000 yuan a month, and it would be better if someone is willing to take over.

Whether it is now, or in 20 years, most websites are losing money, and there are only two ways to make money: one is to go public to make money; The second is to find someone to take over.

Although Kang Jianfei doesn't know much about the history of Internet development, he knows that this thing must be in front, as long as he survives the past few years and cultivates his loyal users, he will definitely be able to do it in the future.

In fact, the first wave of the Internet bubble will be set off next year and reach its peak in 2000, when countless local tyrants threw money into it, and then the bubble burst with a bang.

Kang Jianfei's initial idea was to build his own portal.

Since Chen Baixiang's Oriental Charm Network already has a foundation, it is simply a direct acquisition. The initial content of the website can be divided into five parts

First, business information. Nowadays, the mass user has not yet emerged, and business users are the main customers of the website, which is very, very important.

The second is news and information. Including international news and local news, this part of the content can be cooperated with "Ming Pao" and "Tian Tian Daily".

The third is the literature section. All kinds of poems, essays, and famous works can be obtained, and a large number of electronic copyrights can be bought for a small amount of money, because today's writers don't take the Internet seriously.

Fourth, entertainment information. All kinds of information, gossip, and even daily photos of artists can be posted online, which is very attractive to ordinary users, after all, the current news dissemination can only rely on traditional media.

Fifth, the BBS forum. In the early days of the Internet, this was a big killer for accumulating popularity, and young people were super crazy to play.

Hong Kong's Internet market is still very small and must rely on the United States and the mainland. Kang Jianfei plans to set up websites in these two places next year at the latest, and the Oriental Charm Network in Hong Kong is equivalent to military training, striving to train some website talents, and then cooperate with universities in the United States and China to build websites.

Of course, you can also open an Internet café to have fun. If history remains unchanged, it will be another two or three months before the world's first Internet café will appear in the UK. (To be continued.) )
