I was born again with 100 million

Chapter 539 Flanking!

After recruiting Ruan Ti, he handed it over to Brother Xiao Ma. The first task of the other party after joining the job was to help find various loopholes in the existing products of Eternal Network.

If the previous development of Eternal Network was to lay the foundation and make money, then, with the thriving and business expansion of Eternal Network, competition must be ushered in.

Not only to compete with these domestic Internet companies, but also to compete with foreign Internet companies.

And in competition, it's hard to say what's going to happen, it's important to consolidate at the back.

Lin Xiao doesn't want to be hacked, it often happens on the Gu network.

So Lin Xiao not only told Xiao Ma to make good use of Ruan Ti, but also told him to recruit more talents of this type.

Do a good job of protecting yourself first, and then later, if the company has accumulated enough technology in this area, it can also make computer security protection products.

In terms of economic benefits, Lin Xiao may not necessarily like this kind of product, but the user base is very wide, and if it is really fully rolled out, it will also be a force that cannot be ignored.

The most impressive thing is probably the 3Q war in the previous life. 360 developed a QQ bodyguard blocking software, which blocked 2000 million QQ users in just two or three days.

Brother Xiao Ma made up his mind at the time, requiring users to choose one of the two softwares on the grounds that the two softwares are compatible.

QQ fought this battle extremely fiercely, because Teng Xun took the lead in calling out the option of choosing one of the two, and was strongly criticized by the outside world.

In the end, even the official departments had to stand up and demand that the two sides cancel this confrontation.

Immediately after 360 published some selfless articles, Teng Xun chose to take 360 ​​to court.

Although Teng Xun won the lawsuit in the end, it was three years later, and in this battle, Tencent lost miserably in terms of public opinion.

Somewhat similar to the Internet violence in later generations, 360 threw out a fake news about QQ invading privacy, and chose to develop a software to be a messenger of justice.

However, Teng Xun's time and cost to prove his innocence are huge.

To be honest, if Teng Xun hadn’t entered the era of mobile Internet and launched WeChat, it would have been greatly affected after World War I, and Brother Ma might not be able to lead the company to the scale of later generations.

Lin Xiao naturally didn't want this kind of thing to happen again in this life.

Although making a security protection software may not be able to completely prevent such things from happening, at least taking precautions can give yourself more say.

Of course, this is a matter of the future, but this does not prevent Lin Xiao from making some appropriate layouts at this time.

……

On Lin Xiao's side, when all kinds of layouts are going on, in a teahouse in Yanjing.

Wang Zhidong from Sina, Zhang Chaoyang from Sohu, and Ding Lei from Netease got together again. This time, because the discussion did not involve CDC, and Ye Keyong was away on a business trip, no one was called to CDC.

"Have you seen the series of actions against cheating on the ancient network?" Wang Zhidong asked Zhang Chaoyang and Ding Lei.

The two clicked off, and Wang Zhidong smiled immediately.

"Mr. Ye's trick is still useful. It seems that Lin Xiao has also attracted a lot of attention from the game."

"In this case, if we release the chat software at the same time, it should be able to catch him by surprise."

Zhang Chaoyang nodded slightly, "Actually, the best way is for us to release them in sequence, so that we can avoid our own competition in the short term."

"That's it, Mr. Zhang, do you want to release it first or later?" Wang Zhidong asked back at this time.

Zhang Chaoyang didn't say a word. If the three companies announced one after the other, who would come first?

Ding Lei smiled at this time, and smoothed things over: "Actually, posting together has the advantages of posting together. First of all, in terms of public opinion, it has a greater impact and can attract the attention of netizens.

In addition, the impact effect is also better. If the three companies send it together, everyone can always find one to try. If there is one, it will also attract a QQ user. "

"That's the reason." Wang Zhidong followed suit.

"So, let's not discuss these, let's discuss the specific launch time."

Several people glanced at it, and Zhang Chaoyang said again: "I think the sooner the better, how about this Friday? When I saw Lin Xiao's products, I liked the night before the holiday."

"Also, it happens that there are a lot of people surfing the Internet on Saturdays and Sundays."

"I also agree, start the promotion tomorrow, and then go live on Friday."

After Wang Zhidong and Ding Lei expressed that they had no objections, they formally finalized the matter, chatted for a while, and then dispersed.

In the afternoon of the same day, the three major portal websites made public announcements one after another, and the next day will release news about new products.

Several major domestic portals have focused on portals for the past two years. A few days ago, China.com announced its entry into the game industry, which was the first time for several major portals to expand their business.

At this time, the news that the three major portals announced that there will be new product releases immediately attracted the attention of many people from the outside world.

Not to mention the three major portals themselves, even other media have followed up and reported.

Recently, the ability of the ancient network to capture information has been greatly improved. Naturally, Lin Xiao and others knew about such a big news in time.

"Don't you think it's a little strange?"

Lin Xiao looked at these news reports, and asked Xiao Ma and the others curiously.

"Look at Sina.com, there are reports of three major portals releasing new products at the same time. It seems that people don't know that several portals are releasing products at the same time."

After reading it, Brother Xiao Ma nodded slightly, "It's a little strange. It stands to reason that Sina's reports should pay more attention to reporting themselves, and they would put such other reports in such a prominent position. .”

Speaking of this, Brother Ma suddenly came to his senses and said, "Boss Lin, are they united to do something against us?"

Tapping the table lightly with his fingers, Lin Xiao shook his head and said, "I don't know yet, we will know when news about their new products is released tomorrow."

However, immediately Lin Xiao said to the pony:
"Don't worry too much. Let's not talk about whether their new products are really aimed at us. Even if they are true, soldiers will block them, and water will cover them. Whether it's games or chat software, if they really want to compete with us, Then come on!"

Lin Xiao said it more relaxedly, but Xiao Ma and others may not think so.

After the news was reported, he explained that he must pay attention to the dynamics of the three major portals as soon as possible.

So the next day, when the news about the new product appeared on the three major portal websites, Brother Ma immediately paid attention to it.

And when he saw the introduction of the new products of the three companies, his face suddenly became serious.

Then, Brother Xiao Ma immediately called Zeng Liqing and Zhang Zhidong, and hurriedly walked towards Lin Xiao's office.

"Boss Lin, the three of their companies have released news about new products." Before anyone entered Lin Xiao's office, Xiao Ma had already spoken first.

"Come in and tell me." Lin Xiao responded to Brother Xiaoma while opening several portals on the computer.

Since the other party will release news about new products, naturally these news will be announced on their own portal.

While Lin Xiao was operating the computer, Brother Ma continued to say:

"The three major portals just announced their new product information, all of which are instant messaging software."

"I saw it!" Lin Xiao stared at the computer at this moment, and there was a conspicuous news on Sina.com.

"Three Portals Simultaneously Enter the Field of Instant Messaging"

Hearing what Lin Xiao said, Xiao Ma and others also came over, and saw that the computer screen at this time was introducing information about the products of the three companies.

Sina launched the instant messaging software "ChatChat", and launched a registration gift activity, each registered user, as long as they log in for 30 hours in the month, they will be given 10 yuan in call charges.

NetEase has launched the instant messaging software "Netease Bubbles", and there is also an activity of "hanging Bubbles to send text messages". If you hang up Bubbles for a whole day and get a star, you can exchange 120 text messages.

Search launched the instant messaging software "Search Q", which directly moved virtual communities such as QQ Show together. After registration, you can get a costume worth 30 yuan if you spend 15 hours online.

After several people read the information carefully together, Brother Xiao Ma's expression became more serious than before.

"Are they united against us?"

Brother Xiao Ma really felt the pressure at this moment. The three major portal websites are all listed companies, and they raised a lot of money last year, although because of the stock market downturn, they may not dare to spend money extravagantly.

But if you really want to spend money, you have money in your hand.

Therefore, in a sense, the earning power of Eternal Network is not playing a big role at this time, at least in the short term.

Before this, there were basically no competitors on the ancient network. At that time, there was a Lianzhong game, but it was killed after three games and five divisions.

But at this time, it needs to face the joint confrontation of the three listed companies.

Under such circumstances, the pressure in Xiao Ma's heart is indeed not small.

Although Lin Xiao's face was not as serious as Brother Xiao Ma's, it was a little more serious at this time.

He really thought that several major portal websites would imitate the products of Eternal Network, but he really didn't expect that the pace of the other parties would be so consistent.

In my impression, these websites also did this kind of thing in the previous life, but the previous life should have happened four years later.

At that time, the foundation of QQ was already very solid, and the steps of several companies were not so consistent.

So even Lin Xiao realized at this moment that he should not be too careless.

"When will our new QQ version be developed?" Lin Xiao asked Xiao Ma at this time.

Brother Xiao Ma immediately replied, "It will take about 20 days."

"20 days." Lin Xiao thought for a while, then said in a deep voice:

"It's not too passive in terms of time. You have also done instant messaging software. It is difficult to really develop a large user group in 20 days."

"Mr. Ma, next, we must first mobilize all the employees of the company to stabilize their mentality, and try not to respond to the three major companies to the outside world. Even if we respond, we must pay attention to the methods and methods."

Lin Xiao stared at the three brothers Xiao Ma, "We want to give those companies a feeling that we don't take their actions too seriously."

"In fact, what we have to do is tighten the inside and loosen the outside. On the one hand, the development of the new version continues to maintain progress."

"On the other hand, didn't we prepare a few small games to be launched on QQ Games before? It has been perfected during this period, and we are ready to go online at the same time."

After arranging all this, Lin Xiao continued to say to the three of them: "At this stage, we should do our own thing first, wait and see what happens, and see the situation of the three of them."

Several people nodded after listening.

Brother Xiao Ma thought of the update of the next version of QQ, and the pressure in his heart was much less.

QQ itself has a user base, and it is also at the forefront in function development. It is naturally not easy for the three major portals to shake the foundation of QQ immediately.

Eternal Network is tight internally and loose externally, so naturally no one responds to the entry of the three major portals into the instant messaging field.

If they don't say anything, the outside world is full of speculation at this time.

"Three listed companies are attacking, can QQ hold its ground?" "

"Three major portals release instant messaging software at the same time, do you still use QQ?" "

……

Reports like this frantically appeared on the Internet and in major media reports in the next few days.

Amid such voices, on Friday, the instant messaging software of the three major portals went online at the same time.

Because of the uproar in the past two days, it also attracted the attention of many netizens.

For a time, there were quite a few users who downloaded and tried it out.

Everyone, including those from the Ancient Ancient Network, also downloaded several chat software one after another.

Then, the discussion on the three instant messaging software became even more heated.

There is no other reason. These softwares are very similar to QQ. Except for a small range of functional layouts and different skins, they are no different from QQ in other places.

QQ users basically have no sense of disobedience when using it.

Moreover, several chat software have online gift activities, and many people have begun to spontaneously recommend them to people they are familiar with.

So in Internet cafes, we often see a strange phenomenon, that is, 3 or 4 chat software are hung on a computer at the same time.

Ten days later, several companies announced the number of registered users one after another, all claiming that the number of registered users had exceeded 500 million.

This time, the outside world has maintained a certain degree of suspicion about the ancient network that has been silent.

Inside the Eternal Network, Xiao Ma and others are also paying attention to the data at any time. In the past week, the online time and number of simultaneous online users of QQ users have declined for the first time after more than two years of rising.
