Top of the Great Era

Chapter 2054 Recommendation from the experience officer
With WeChat gaining a firm foothold in the domestic market and opening up a huge gap with Penguin's Q-mail, Zhou Buqi is full of confidence in Ziweixing's domestic business.

Accumulated in the PC Internet era, and exploded in the mobile Internet era.

This is already an inevitable trend.

Therefore, Zhou Buqi basically delegated authority to Ziweixing's domestic business to the extreme. Regardless of whether he is in the company or not, all business-level matters will not be reported to him.

Unless the disagreement is serious and the people below are arguing, they will come to him.

In contrast, Zhou Buqi is more concerned about Ziweixing's overseas business.

Competitors in overseas markets are too strong, Google, Facebook, Microsoft, Amazon, etc., none of them are good technology giants.

Even if Helo and Ucgram are already one of the two most popular social application products in overseas markets, the future prospects are uncertain, and the insurance factor is far inferior to the three major businesses of cloud computing, artificial intelligence and investment.

So Zhou Buqi is more familiar with Apps in overseas markets, and will often read the materials when he has time.

For example, he can casually say that the top 10 free apps in overseas markets are Helo, Facebook, Angry Birds Free Edition, Crossword Puzzle, Ucgram, Skype, Netflix, Angry Birds Rio Free version, Fruit Ninja, Twitter.

In fact, it is similar to the overall situation of the top 10 in China.

Mainly based on social products, and there are several free games.

The difference is that the overseas market is dominated by "Angry Birds", almost dominating the list.In the top 10 of the free list, two seats are occupied, and the paid list is even more exaggerated, occupying three seats, namely "Angry Birds" ranked first, "Angry Birds Season Edition" ranked third and ranked The sixth Angry Birds Rio edition.

In the first three quarters of this year, the total downloads of the paid version alone reached 1.8 million times, and the cost of each download is US$0.99.

Ziwei Star International's game division can sell such a high price, which is inseparable from the status of "Angry Birds" in the mobile game market.

However, the domestic market is not the same.

"Angry Birds" is also very popular, but more of the top rankings on the iPad, and the most popular mobile game on smartphones is "Talking Cat".

"Talking Cat" is also very popular in overseas markets. It is in the top 10 in the game list and in the top 30 in the overall list, but it is still incomparable with the domestic popularity.

And this game has nothing to do with Changyou.

Zhou Buqi was moved immediately.

This game should be taken down!

It's not just that this game can make money, because with the development of the times, super IPs like "Talking Cat" have multiple attributes of diversified development and strong vitality.

There is a more important point, that is, some ideas on the gameplay.

The future is the era of artificial intelligence.

In the early days of AI, it was actually a simple dialogue between AI and humans.If a large AI model is added behind the "talking cat family", so that pets can interact with users more intelligently, then there will be a potential for super explosions.

Zhou Buqi has now officially taken over Changyou.

Next, he's going to do something drastic.

These little secretaries unanimously provided a game like "Talking Cat", even if they have successfully completed the task of "product experience officer".

not bad!
However, this is not over.

A senior intern at Beijing Normal University, Zhuo Wensi, who has a cute ball head and small canine teeth, provided a new and distinctive material, which is a list of 20 apps that are not ranked high but are very interesting.

No matter how the 20 arrangements are selected, Zhou Buqi feels that she deserves praise just for this idea.

Look at the content again... ho!

Really in stock!

These 20 apps are Symbian Netdisk, ProcessManager, Yiyangzhi, iReader, Tinder Contacts, Amy Video Chat, Momo, AutoNavi, Cartoon Desktop, Volcano Weather, Caller, Give, Tiantian Dongting, R66+ map package, Golden Bee, Autostarts, mobile phone cutout, etc.

Zhou Buqi took a look, he really had a background!
Most of the apps actually have obvious characteristics of the times, such as Tinder Contacts, Volcano Weather, Incoming Calls, Autostarts, the task manager ProcessManager and other products, all of which are not fully functional on smartphones. Early is okay.

After a few years, there will be no living space.

There are also some apps that are so niche that they have not developed at all, and soon fell silent.

Starting a business is not easy.

Even if a very good product is made, and it has received a certain degree of praise and attention in the market, it may soon die under the big wave.

However, there are two products that impressed Zhou Buqi deeply.

One is AutoNavi and the other is Momo.

They are all famous!

"Not bad, not bad, this material is very good, Evans has worked hard!" Zhou Buqi took the two A4 papers from Zhuo Wensi, full of praise.

Zhuo Wensi smiled like a flower, "Did I do it right?"

Zhou Buqi praised: "Yes, very good. Well, is AutoNavi the most popular navigation application on mobile phones now?"

Zhuo Wensi said briskly: "No, it should be Kay Rucker Navigation."

Zhou Buqi looked at the slightly disappointed girls next to him, and they all agreed with this statement, saying that the two most popular navigation products in China are Kay Rucker and AutoNavi.

"What about us?" Zhou Buqi continued to ask, "Does our company have one?"

"This one……"

Zhuo Wensi and the sisters looked at each other for a few times, and then looked at each other in blank dismay.

Zhou Buqi raised his eyebrows, "No?"

Mai Feixue plucked up her courage and said proactively: "It seems that there is no, um... no! There should be no! I checked it specifically!"

Zhou Buqi was very surprised, "Don't we have a micro map?"

Mai Feixue said weakly: "A map is a map, and navigation is navigation, right?"

Zhou Buqi pondered for a while.

It may be that the performance of smartphones is too poor and too many functions cannot be integrated; it may also be that the navigation function is too complicated, not on the technical level, but on the road conditions that need to be inspected and updated continuously. This is a very large offline project.

After a moment of silence, Zhou Buqi asked, "Does Weidian map have an app?"

"Have."

The girls all spoke in unison, and their crisp voices were very pleasant.

Zhou Buqi said with a smile: "But the micro-point map has no navigation function, right?"

"Correct."

The girls laughed happily and spoke in unison again.

Zhou Buqi raised his head, looked at Ning Lu who was sitting on the sofa, and ordered: "Go ask and see if any of our teams are working on navigation products. If you are doing it yourself, then forget it; if you are not doing it , it’s better to acquire AutoNavi. Navigation should be an essential function of smartphones.”

Zhuo Wensi was very excited, his eyes were like two clear springs.

I didn't expect my suggestion to really work.

There is a great sense of accomplishment.

Unexpectedly, there will be more powerful ones behind, Zhou Buqi smiled and pointed to a name on the document, "What's the matter with Momo? Do you like to use it?"

Zhuo Wensi's face suddenly turned red.

Zhou Buqi couldn't help but joked, "Why are you blushing?"

Zhuo Wensi said with a dizzy face, "I just tried it."

After all, she is still a big girl with yellow flowers, so she is a little embarrassed.

At this stage, Momo has not been online for long.

Such a chat product competes with top-tier products such as WeChat, Q Letter, and Fetion, and then grabs the status immediately, why?
Because long before the product is launched, the operation behind the product has been completed, and a large number of young girls such as hair salon girls, nightclub dancers, and bar escort girls have been organized.

A beautiful girl is the greatest asset.

After the product was launched, male users found so many beautiful girls who were willing to chat and date out, and quickly opened up the market by spreading the word.

There is a well-known "School Flower and School Grass Selection" section on the school intranet, which has a similar effect.

Mai Feixue is no longer a girl, so she became more courageous, and said positively: "I have also used Momo, it seems that I just went online last month, and it is very aggressive."

The topic opened, and the other girls followed suit.

After all, socializing is Ziweixing's natal field.

Therefore, when girls experience products, they pay the most attention to social products.And Momo is the product with the fastest rising momentum in the social sector in the past month or so.

Zhao Li Muge said quickly: "Yes, I have also experienced this product, but it is smoky inside. I don't like it, so it is useless. But the results are good, and it seems to be very popular."

The school girl Yan Qiqi was even more rigorous, and even blurted out a set of data, "I have also researched, this product was launched in early August, and it is in the social section. The download volume in the second week is the 8th, the first The third week is the 11th, and in the fourth week, it ranks among the top three, second only to WeChat and QQ. Now it seems to have accumulated 6+ users.”

Zhou Buqi smiled and said, "Have you all paid attention to this product?"

"Ah."

Not surprisingly, except for Guan Nanqing who did not participate, the other girls were all nodding slightly.

Zhou Buqi asked: "Then why didn't you recommend it? Only Wensi recommended it?"

Zhao Li Muge bit his lip and said: "This product is not good, and the atmosphere is not right."

"Is the atmosphere bad?"

"Well, it's full of bad people and foul language."

Zhao Li Muge rushed to the front line.

With her taking the lead, the other girls will also talk to each other, belittling this product as useless, thinking that this product has nothing worth paying attention to... There is no way, the current Momo is just stepping on this one who trades between men and women. If the edgeball develops, serious girls will not give praise.

Many people even downloaded Momo on their mobile phones, but they were embarrassed to put it on the desktop and wanted to hide it.Many people even look at the other person's phone when they are in a relationship. If Momo is downloaded and installed on the other person's phone... Huh, bye bye!
However, the Avenue of Human Relations is just needed.

The more controversy there is, the more attractive Momo will be and the faster it will develop.The big deal is that when you grow up, you can think of a way to transform.
