The richest man

Chapter 259 Fatal blow!
"At this moment, although Facebook occupies the first place in the global real-name social network market share, the existence of other social networking sites has always been a big threat!"

No matter if it is 5Q and Zhanzao.com in China, or Myspace abroad, in a short period of time, no matter how you fight, they cannot be completely killed.The Internet is changing rapidly. Maybe if you are not careful, the other party will catch up.

Therefore, it is better to determine the overlord landlord as soon as possible and drive the opponent out of the market.

Zhang Jun finally took out his secret weapon - "Happy Farm".

He called Guan Hanmeng, intending to send her the game plan of "Happy Farm" by e-mail, and said, "I will send you the plan of a small web game called "Happy Farm" later." You have to pay special attention to this game, it is my secret weapon, a magic weapon for social networking! When "Happy Farm" is launched, account registration restrictions can be lifted, and everyone in the world can register a Facebook account, But it’s still a real-name registration!!!”

Guan Hanmeng was overjoyed when she heard the words, she wanted to let go of the authority a long time ago, but Zhang Jun kept pressing it and refused to allow it.But seeing the rapid development of MySpace in the United States, Guan Hanmeng was anxious to get angry.

"Hmm??? "Happy Farm" is a small web game, the boss' secret weapon? A magic weapon? The web game is very low-end, how can a small game be a huge magic weapon in the social network field?" Guan Hanmeng was stunned. , she really can't imagine what kind of web game can have such a powerful effect.

After finishing the conversation, Guan Hanmeng started logging into her email.

At this time, the e-mail prompts that there is "new mail".

Guan Hanmeng quickly opened the new email, which was the game plan of "Happy Farm" sent by Zhang Jun. At the end of the article, it also explained in detail what is a social game? In "Happy Farm", friends "steal food" from each other, and its charm almost fully embodies the meaning of social games!
Guan Hanmeng studied it carefully for a few minutes, and couldn't help fantasizing in his mind that he opened up a farm and planted a lot of crops. When it was time to harvest, he suddenly found that his friends came to the farm to steal vegetables.Okay, you actually stole the food, so I will steal your food too...

As a farmer, if you want to earn more money to open up more land, buy crop seeds, fertilizers, etc., you must steal more vegetables.What if you don't have enough friends to steal?Then invite more relatives and friends to play this game...

As such...

The more Guan Hanmeng thought about it, the more startled she became.

"The boss is indeed a super genius. He can think of this kind of game. The key is that the development difficulty of this game is low, and it is most suitable for real-name social networking sites like Facebook. It is like a tiger with wings added!!!"

"The boss is awesome!" Guan Hanmeng couldn't help but praise, then stood up from the seat, and rushed directly to the software development department impatiently!
On the same day, Guan Hanmeng discussed the development of "Happy Farm" with the program developer.

The development of this game is not difficult. With Facebook's technical strength, it only takes 15 days to develop "Happy Farm".

"Okay, then I will wait for 15 days, and I must see "Happy Farm" in 15 days!"

"Don't worry, Mr. Guan, there is absolutely no problem!" The developer said confidently.

The "Happy Farm" designed by Zhang Jun doesn't have a lot of krypton gold. Even if you recharge to buy props, the strength will not increase too much. The main thing is to increase the strength of the farm by stealing and growing vegetables.

15 days, fleeting.

The development work of "Happy Farm" was completed on schedule.

This morning, Guan Hanmeng sent "Happy Farm" to all the Facebook staff, asking them to try it out after get off work to test whether the game is fun and whether there are any bugs.

However, Guan Hanmeng didn't expect it.

When Facebook employees play "Happy Farm", they are almost addicted.

During lunch, a group of colleagues couldn't help but chat about "Happy Farm".

"Secretly tell you, Mr. Guan forgot to collect the vegetables. I just went to Mr. Guan's farm and stole a lot of corn and wheat. Haha, Mr. Guan will be very angry if he finds out!"

"Hehehe, I also went to Mr. Guan's farm to steal vegetables!"

"Damn, you beasts, even bullying a beautiful woman like Mr. Guan, you are simply not human~"

"..."

It has only been a day or two, and Facebook colleagues have started stealing food frantically. As the CEO of Facebook, Guan Hanmeng is naturally "taken care of" extra. Every time she opens "Happy Farm", the system will remind many people Steal vegetables from her farm.

Guan Hanmeng's face puffed up with anger, and then she went back to revenge wildly. If anyone steals food from her house, she will steal it back!
"Happy Farm" has been tested for a week, but Facebook has already been conquered by this game. Apart from work, every day is planting and stealing vegetables, and I never get tired of it.

Guan Han dreamed that "Happy Farm" had no bugs, so he sent the game to Zhang Jun.

"Boss, "Happy Farm" has been tested internally on Facebook for a week. Everyone likes this game very much, and it can even be said to be "fascinated". Someone stole it... The bug in the game has not been found so far. I will send the game to your email, and you can download it and try it out to see if it satisfies you."

"Oh, "Happy Farm" has been developed, um, you can send it to me now!" Zhang Jun was overjoyed when he heard that, and nodded quickly.It's been a long time since he stole food. Zhang Jun couldn't help but find it funny when he thought of staying up late every day to steal food.

Soon, Zhang Jun downloaded "Happy Farm" from his email, logged in with his Facebook account, and started playing the game.

Although there are not many people playing "Happy Farm" at this time, Zhang Jun still enjoys playing it.

Three days later, Zhang Jun called Guan Hanmeng, "I am very satisfied with "Happy Farm", the game can be launched now!"

"Boss, I knew you would be satisfied." Guan Hanmeng said with a smile, then said after a pause, "Then I'll go prepare for the press conference!"

Zhang Jun couldn't help laughing when he heard that, Guan Hanmeng acted resolutely and had strong execution ability, before he had a word with the boss, he was busy arranging work.

"Okay, go get ready!"

"Ok!"

……

……

At this time, News Corporation, Murdoch is listening to his subordinates report on the development of MySpace website with a smile on his face.

"Since our news corporation acquired the MySpace website, the number of registered users has been increasing. Up to now, there are 3000 million registered users, and more than 200 million photos are uploaded every day. At the same time, the advertising revenue of the MySpace website has increased by four or five times! The investment firm raised the valuation of MySpace to $10 billion!!!”

Murdoch was smiling, smoking a cigar, and nodded to his subordinates very satisfied: "Well, yes, Myspace's performance has risen sharply, and its future development potential is huge. News Corp. can invest more resources in the MySpace website to help MySpace expand rapidly."

After a pause, Murdoch asked, "How is the situation with Facebook? They still insist on strictly restricting the registration of accounts by outsiders?"

"Well, as far as I know, yes." The man under him nodded and replied.

Murdoch pursed his lips when he heard the words, and showed a trace of sarcasm: "It's really incomprehensible! Facebook puts the multi-billion national market and does not do it, but guards the tens of millions of campus market. It's really putting the cart before the horse!"

"Boss, you're right, but this is just giving us MySpace an opportunity."

"Well, since that's the case, let's speed up the development of MySpace before Zhang Jun's thoughts change!"

On the same day, News Corporation announced that it would invest an additional $5000 million in its MySpace website.

MySpace began to internationalize, and at the same time added servers and broadband to improve the speed of the website and improve the user experience.

The effect of burning money is naturally good.

Before long, MySpace has more registered users than Facebook.

News Corporation declared, "MySpace is the world's largest social networking site!"

On the same day, News Corporation's stock price soared.

Many people are very optimistic about News Corporation, which owns the world's largest social networking site. The existence of MySpace will bring News Corporation's media business to a new level.

Wall Street.

"Is MySpace still accepting investment?"

"It should be. Murdoch is a smart man. He was originally an Australian. He immigrated to the United States in order to buy newspapers and TV stations in the United States. He is not as stubborn as Zhang Jun, so he should be very clear. , MySpace website can develop more smoothly with our investment!"

"That's right, and Facebook is eyeing a tiger, and it is possible to touch account registration restrictions at any time. At that time, MySpace will face Facebook's competition. It is hard to predict who will win. I think Murdoch may not be sure of winning, otherwise He and News Corp. will not be so eager to speed up the development of MySpace..."

At this moment, major investment companies suddenly received a message that Facebook was preparing to hold a press conference, and it seemed that there was an important news to be announced.

"Could it be that Facebook finally felt a strong sense of urgency after seeing MySpace received an additional $5000 million from News Corporation, so it decided to announce the removal of account restrictions?"

Everyone speculated and quickly sent people to pay close attention to the Facebook press conference.

As for the investment in MySpace, many investment companies decided to let it go.

Silicon Valley, California, San Jose.

Hundreds of journalists and industry insiders gathered outside the Facebook US building.

"What news did Facebook release this time? Do you have any inside information?"

"I don't know, but everyone is guessing that Facebook is going to loosen account registration restrictions."

"Well, I think so. MySpace puts a lot of pressure on Facebook. MySpace's parent company, News Corporation, is also powerful. No wonder Facebook is nervous!"

"MySpace has surpassed Facebook in registered users. If Facebook is left alone, I am afraid that the dominance of social networks in the future will belong to MySpace."

In the evening, the sun sets and the golden afterglow falls on the world.

Guan Hanmeng was bathed in golden light, wearing a black suit, and looked heroic.

Everyone saw Facebook's strong female CEO appearing on the stage, and the audience quickly became quiet.

"Welcome everyone to come to the Facebook press conference. I am Facebook CEO Guan Hanmeng." Guan Hanmeng introduced himself.

Then he added, "Today, Facebook will make a major decision to cancel account registration restrictions. Anyone can register an account with an ID card or other valid certificates. Unlike MySpace, Facebook still has a real-name system, and one person can only have an account. A Facebook account."

"I'm going. As expected, I got what I said. Facebook is indeed going to lift the account registration restriction. MySpace is in trouble. I don't know if it can stop Facebook's attack."

Someone next to him immediately expressed his opinion: "I don't think so! Facebook's user viscosity is very high, and the basic market is very solid. MySpace has always wanted to enter the campus social market, but it has never been successful. That is to say, Facebook and MySpace In this battle between MySpace and MySpace will be in a passive situation. I am not optimistic about MySpace. Of course, in fact, the main reason is that Facebook is a real-name system, while MySpace is anonymous. The most important thing in online dating is sincerity, if It’s me, I will choose to make friends on Facebook. Moreover, offline friends will gradually change to online friends, and when choosing a platform, I will unconsciously choose Facebook.”

"Brother, you are right. It immediately made me realize. If MySpace does not change its business model, it will definitely not be an opponent of Facebook!"

"..."

On the stage, Guan Hanmeng smiled slightly, signaling for everyone to be quiet, and then introduced: "In addition, Facebook will launch a web game at 8 o'clock tonight - "Happy Farm", I hope everyone can play it at that time Play. By the way, the game designer of "Happy Farm" is not easy..."

When Guan Hanmeng said this, he suddenly stopped.

Journalists detest this kind of peddling.

Why not simple?Not too soon.

Guan Hanmeng smiled, and said unhurriedly: "This designer is actually my boss——Zhang Jun, do you think this designer is not simple?"

As soon as the voice fell, there was an uproar in the audience.

"Holy shit, Zhang Jun actually designed the game himself again. Not only is it not easy, it's simply amazing! Zhang Jun's title as a game genius design master is not just bragging. Now I suddenly look forward to " happy farm"!"

"The game designed by Zhang Jun is still very exciting, and I will play it on time."

"Is the game designed by Zhang Jun a web game? Otherwise, how can it be played on Facebook?"

"..."

In any case, everyone is very impressed with "Happy Farm", full of curiosity and expectation.

After the press conference, the content of the conference immediately made the headlines of Yahoo News.

Other media also released the news immediately.

On the Internet, some Facebook users are very resistant. They post online and do not allow outsiders from the school to register a Facebook account, thinking that this will desecrate the purity of social interaction in the school.

However, there were so few people who resisted that Facebook simply ignored them.

With the lifting of the restriction order, Facebook users ushered in explosive growth.

In just a few hours, 150 million people signed up for Facebook.

Terrible! ! !
When Facebook announced the news, it immediately caused a huge sensation in the industry.

News Corp., Murdoch looked stunned and couldn't believe it, "150 million people registered Facebook accounts in a few hours?"

"Yes, boss, it's true, Facebook has posted the news on the Facebook homepage!"

Murdoch was in a bad mood, put out his cigar, frowned and thought.

At this time, Murdoch thought that Facebook would soon launch the game designed by Zhang Jun. He heard that this game was a web game specially designed for Facebook.

For some reason, Murdoch suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart.

He asked, "What time is it?"

"It's almost 8 o'clock in the evening!"

"Hurry up and open Facebook, "Happy Farm" is about to be launched, I want to learn more about this game!"

"Okay, boss."

……

At 8 o'clock in the evening, the highly anticipated "Happy Farm" was launched.

After "Happy Farm" was launched, the vast majority of Facebook users chose to try it out.

Murdoch also played it himself for a while, then shook his head to express his disdain: "What's so interesting about this game? It's just growing vegetables in the garden. It's too boring! Is Zhang Jun exhausted?"

Murdoch closed the laptop, took out a Cuban cigar from the exquisite silver cigar metal box, lit it, and took a puff. Sparks flickered, reflecting on Murdoch's gloomy old face, and Murdoch spit out Smoke ring, said lightly: ""Happy Farm" is useless, it doesn't deserve our attention at all!"

……

"Happy Farm" has just been launched. In order for players to experience the fun of "stealing vegetables" earlier, the game system gives players a lot of fertilizers, which can speed up the production of crops.

Just keep fertilizing, and in a few minutes, the crops will be ripe.

At this time, the game will remind the player to collect the food quickly and don't be stolen by others.

After you collect the vegetables, you can sell them for money. Players can go to the shopping mall to buy seeds, fertilizers and other products, and they can also open up a new field.At this time, players will find that their money is not enough.What to do if the money is not enough, the game will prompt, you can go to your friend's farm to steal vegetables.

Those who dare not steal things in the Internet now dare to do so in the Internet.

"Stealing food" made them feel a little crime pleasure.

As a result, many people started the journey of "stealing vegetables".

"Happy Farm" only allows friends to steal food, but you can recharge to buy props, and then steal food from strangers. This kind of props has a limit on the number of times they can be used.

Every new player has one of these props, in order to allow them to steal food as much as they want, and then...recharge money! ! !

After the number of props is used up, if you want to steal food from strangers, you will charge money to buy such props in the mall.

Because of this kind of props, countless Facebook users started a chaotic battle.

"I just planted a little bit of vegetables, and I haven't harvested them yet. Someone came to my farm to steal vegetables. It's just too disgusting! A quarter of my vegetables have been stolen, and I want to cry without tears!" Grote complained to his friend.

"Groot, I suggest you use the Stranger Stealing Vegetables prop, so that you can go to him and steal his vegetables. Also, after planting your vegetables, it's best to check the ripening time of your vegetables, and then set the Alarm clock, this way, you won’t be afraid of being stolen.”

"Great, there is still such a game. I must punish that vegetable thief severely. I will steal all the vegetables in his farm!"

"Groot, you tell me the other party's Facebook account, and I will also use props to steal food! Hehe, dare to bully my brother, I must take revenge!"

"Pierce, you are indeed my good brother, I will send you the other party's Facebook account right now!"
