It's still that office.

It's still the same group of young people.

But unlike before, everyone was confident and ready to make a big move.

This time, the young people in the office lowered their heads one by one, and their momentum was extremely low, and they lost their previous self-confidence.

On the contrary, it is a little more depressed.

"Let's talk about it, what's going on now?" After all, it was Ma Huateng who spoke first.

But.

Relatively compared to others.

Ma Huateng is very worrying at the moment.

He has always liked to be clean and tidy and pay attention to his personal image, but at the moment he has a scruffy beard, his eyes are bloodshot, and his hair is greasy and greasy, and he is extremely sloppy.

It's so tiring.

In addition to high-intensity work and staying up all night every day, the most important thing is that the pressure from his heart makes him feel physically and mentally exhausted.

This time.

It was definitely an unforgettable time for Mawalteng.

"During this period of time, because of the Spring Festival, the number of our users has also ushered in a surge, and so far, the number of our registered users has approached 90 million!"

"If nothing else, according to the current growth rate, the number of our registered users will exceed 100 million by March at most!"

This is good news.

Put it before, and it will immediately make everyone cheer.

But now.

In the face of this news, no one present could laugh.

On the contrary, everyone only felt the pressure rushing to their faces.

After all.

The more users there are, the higher the pressure on their servers. The investment of one million meters of knife that they got from Yuanxiu Investment before was used by them to expand and upgrade the server as soon as possible.

But no one thought that these two months would not be there.

The server has ushered in another surge.

This means that in order to stay afloat, they need to keep updating and upgrading their servers!

It's not that there is a lack of funds, after all, a million meters of knife can not be spent so quickly.

The real problem is that they see the terrifying speed at which penguins are burning money, and they understand that the growth of penguins is now in the fast lane, and the number of users is soaring rapidly.

What does this mean?

This means that the demand for servers will only get higher and higher, and the capital investment required will also be higher and higher.

But the problem is that until now, they still have no way to prove that their profit model is correct.

Yes.

The question finally comes back to profitability.

"Our penguin colony has been developed and has begun to be installed with some enterprises in the early stage, but so far, the benefits are not good."

"So far, we've only completed 11 orders, eight of which have only purchased access to our penguin colony, and three are willing to buy our intranet version of the penguin program."

"This sales volume is very low, because after all, we have just started and need to open the market at a low price, so these eleven cooperation has only brought us 30,000 yuan at present."

"This is only RMB, and it is still far from our goal of 500,000 meters."

"We've started to change our plans and start with small companies and start-ups, but the acceptance is not high, and those who are willing to accept it also feel that our price is too expensive."

"This VAM agreement, we are afraid ...... I'm going to lose. ”

Silent.

With one bad news after another, it was reported one after another, and the young people in the office fell silent at this time.

No one thought of it.

Just before, they were confident that the project would be in less than two months.

Give them a head start!

Before, they felt that although 500,000 meters of knife was not a small amount, if it was in the right direction, it was actually very easy to earn.

But now reality tells them.

The company is profitable, and even to some extent, more difficult than pulling an investment.

Not to mention 500,000 meters, even if it is 50,000 yuan, it is a very difficult number.

"What's the problem?"

"Why is this happening?"

"This shouldn't be the case, we have no problem with our plan, why should we lose?"

"Are those companies stupid, why don't they want to accept our group chat, don't they know that the most important thing in the 21st century is efficiency?"

"I'm not reconciled, we should be very marketable, and the price is not expensive, why is no one willing to accept us?"

“……”

After the silence, there is chagrin and bitterness.

The ability to resist pressure is weak, and even scratches his head and pulls his hair down, but he still can't think of a way.

Why?

Why lose?

Why did a project that should and must be able to make money end up with such a result?

Most people don't know.

But a small number of people actually have a faint understanding in their hearts.

"We were in the wrong direction from the start."

Or Ma Huateng, at this moment, he sighed deeply, and said in a depressed voice.

Wrong direction?

The crowd was puzzled.

Penguin group chat, which in itself is something beyond the chat room, is something that no other software has today.

It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a unique and excellent weapon to seize the market.

Not to mention, they now use group chats, coupled with the enterprise office attribute bundling, which can greatly improve the office efficiency of the enterprise, which can be regarded as an accurate solution to the needs.

This should have been promising.

Why is it said that the direction is wrong?

"Enterprises can indeed be our target, and there is indeed a lot of room for group chats, but we are not qualified to make enterprises our users."

Ma Huaten shook his head.

He had actually figured it out, but he didn't want to admit it before.

But now......

"In the beginning, we targeted big companies because we felt that big companies had money and were willing to spend money."

"This step is actually wrong, big companies are very rich and willing to spend money."

"But they are more important to some of their company's information and confidentiality."

"They won't be willing to accept a product from a company that is not big in size and has a lot of recognition."

This......

The crowd fell silent.

"But don't we offer an intranet version?" Some people are puzzled.

"Electronic software, there can be a lot of vulnerabilities in itself, and we don't have the ability to trust these big companies yet."

Ma Huaten shook his head:

"Even if the risk of us stealing secrets is low, it is still inevitable that there is such a chain of suspicion, and for a large enterprise, as long as one person suspects, it is enough reason to reject us."

"But are they going to give up that efficiency?" The employee was still a little unwilling.

"That's the stupidest thing about us."

But seeing Ma Huateng shook his head, he said bitterly: "Our group chat model can indeed increase the efficiency of many companies, and large companies are willing to accept such a model." ”

"But it's the same."

"Group chat software, although we are the only one at the moment, does not mean how difficult this thing is."

"In that case......

"They could have found someone to make one themselves, even if it's more expensive, but it's also safer, so why should they come to us?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone's hearts suddenly felt cold.

Before they ......

How naïve!
