Reboot 2003

Chapter 194 102: Growing Pains (Two in One)

What is growth?Chen Qin thinks that growth is planning.

Generally, children grow up according to their parents' plan. Of course, since they have been reborn, of course they have to give some advice.

And although parents all over the world have similar good intentions, the world is not completely fair after all, and there are objective differences in the planning levels of different parents for their children.

It's like when everyone else is playing with mud, the children of high-ranking officials will learn foreign languages ​​​​in advance and broaden their horizons. Popsicle, watching the unemployed young people in the village racing motorcycles at the entrance of the village.

Although the bottom layer is indeed worthy of sympathy, but after all, I have been reborn and determined to be a rich man, so naturally I can't follow the trend, so I can only make some plans for my future within the scope of my own vision.

Chen Qin's childhood arrangements for himself were not complicated. The small software that he started to make in the third grade brought traffic portals, so that he would not be abandoned by the upper echelon in the next generation. The unexpected [-] million US dollars bought the core of the top echelon Technology can be used to fight back against technological hegemony. Some improvised small plans have brought several core user platforms, and can have an ecological basic disk that is not easy to be defeated by latecomers.

Although he is only a primary school student, with such a career plan, he should be able to reach the average level of a reborn person.

However, there are stages in human growth, and there are naturally things to do in childhood. Only when you have relaxation and relaxation can you grow up healthily. After completing these plans, you only need to wait for the next stage—he originally thought so.

But...how come there is still one year left?

The time has entered April, seeing that the fifth grade is about to graduate, and the midterm exam is the first in the grade, but there is still half a semester to go, and after that, the sixth grade is going to be...

This year, he has no other plans.

Of course, you really have to finish the task at hand, and send the results of the previous "planning" to the next period smoothly.

And the rest of the year...

Probably 'growing pains'.

In the class of the second half of the fifth grade, Chen Qin sat in his penultimate window seat, looked up at the light tubes hanging on the classroom ceiling, and was not listening to the class.

But the teacher doesn't care about him anymore—after all, as the first grader, Xiao Chen is very popular on weekdays. Not only is he popular among his peers, he will give the teacher some small gifts during the holidays, although it is not considered money. However, his goodwill and demands have always been very clear, except that Mr. Xiaomeng would nag him when he couldn't see him, and the other teachers didn't care what he was doing in class.

"Chen Qin, give me your old phone to play with."

The boy next to him flattered him, and Chen Qin took out the Bird mobile phone from his bag and played with him.

In the end, the boy fiddled for a while: "Hey, Chen Qin, why can't I go online?"

"What are you doing online?"

"Look at the game news."

"What news are you watching..."

"Long Family PK in the third district. It is said that there are tens of thousands of people online, and the server is overwhelmed...By the way, Chen Qin, aren't you and Song Ziyun also playing this game?"

"you……"

Chen Qin scratched his head. Recently, the popularity of Three Kingdoms online has skyrocketed. At least he has played other free new games in the same period. And in terms of popularity, even World of Warcraft may not be able to compare.

Especially popular among elementary school students...

But why is it just a group of elementary school students?You go to play super running, okay?
It is inevitable to have troubles in growing up. In the last year, I thought it would pass in a blink of an eye.

The troubles were one after another, and they didn't stop for a month.

The first is the 'anti-counterfeiting incident'. Teacher Li has already helped clear the joints.

The problem at that time was indeed solved. The local government was also very friendly to Galaxy Software, a large taxpayer, saying that this is a matter of private enterprises. Don’t worry too much about this problem for the time being. If there is a problem, I will tell you, and I will not directly tell you. how is it.

However, the public opinion continued to ferment afterwards, and a group of incited young people began to attack the scholars of the Shencheng Science and Technology Bureau who participated in the verification. The worse problem came from overseas. As a Flash game community before, the atmosphere of Crooked Neck.com was quite harmonious. As the popularity of the website became more and more popular, Yahoo made a match, and many celebrities in the entertainment field joined Crooked Neck.com...

Then all kinds of poisonous seedlings poured in - although it is already the 21st century, Europe and the United States are much more open in market systems than they were 20 years ago due to their actual leading position, but the ideological wars that have continued from the last century are comparable. The future trade war will be much more barbaric.

In addition, Google is now in full swing, and Facebook is emerging. In addition to copyright, it is also caught in a greater public opinion storm over privacy issues. The fight between gods affects ordinary people. Chen Qin himself didn't want to get involved, so he sold Taiwan en. up.But because Crookedneck.com has implemented quite a lot of content filtering and screening and blocking functions, it was involved in this storm again as expected.

Of course this is fine...

This year, Tencent used QQ space to fight a wave of turnaround, driving Yahoo, Microsoft, and NetEase tom out of the communication software field.

Boss Chen was eating popcorn next to him and watching a movie. According to my memory, this Tencent will officially start its ecology next, and in my memory, Tencent was the first to start an ecology. Ali, such as Tenfutong and Paipai.com, were launched during this period. .

Although it didn’t work out—everyone who is engaged in the Internet knows that e-commerce makes money, but e-commerce is an asset-heavy project. Alibaba burned so much money to burn to its current position. Tencent, as a latecomer, can only burn if it wants to get involved. more money.

But Chen Qin doesn't care whether Tencent succeeds or not, he is still waiting for Tencent to buy his 'zhifu.com' domain name.

These rustic domain names are sold to this kind of old money to make a lot of money, and this year, with the boom in entrepreneurship, domain names are becoming more and more valuable. Cai Wensheng, the first generation of Chinese investor in the Internet field, started his business by tossing domain names...

As a result, we waited and waited and failed. Instead, Tencent didn’t get involved with e-commerce, and produced a bunch of input methods, audio-visual software, download software and the like. Except for the browser, almost all of those small things were brought in as they were. .

Chen Qin was speechless at the time. Fortunately, Tencent does not understand the ecology very well and is a latecomer. Galaxy Software not only has the first-mover advantage, but now has Weibo, the core user group may not be much smaller than him.

Moreover, the pile of patents prepared in advance is a bit inappropriate for ordinary competitors. It is safer to deal with latecomers like Tencent who have entered the territory on a large scale.Galaxy Software sued Tencent QQ in court with a complaint, and then there was a lot of wrangling.

Of course, although there are many bad things, there are also good things... I can't say many, but there are also some.

"Three Kingdoms Online" has become very popular since its launch. Not only is it very popular as a free game, but the per capita payment rate of paying users is also very high.

The per capita payment of "Zhengtu" launched at the same time is more than 100 yuan, but "Three Kingdoms Online" is about 40 yuan, which is not enough compared with the previous one, but it is very good compared with the latter - most free casual games now only have a per capita payment of about 15 yuan. The point card game is only more than 40 yuan per person. As the core of the charging system, the card drawing kit in the game seems to be a very successful business method. A lot of them seem to be stuffed with physical medicine, decoration kits, small speakers and the like. Together, there is a very rare 'Extreme Suit' mixed in it, and the local tyrants are drawn to the sky. In addition, the overall quality of the game is not bad, and it is a 3D game. The player volume is larger than that of the peers.

In short, this game is indeed a success. After the official opening of the mall this year, the profit in the first quarter was 5000 million, which is almost half of the return.

It's just that even this relatively promising cash cow project has a bad ass behind it...

Of course, the quality of the game is the foundation of everything. With so much money invested and so much outsourcing, this game is indeed okay now, but compared to World of Warcraft, it still seems that the content is not enough. Energy constraints require other content to fill the player’s game time , and because the game was launched in advance, a lot of content in this part is not open, and even if it is a gashapon, there are very few things that can be drawn. After March, the charging data has begun to decline.

Of course, these are all problems that can be solved. Now the development team is repaying the previous technical debt, and Chen Qin, the boss, has also written a lot of amendments for them.

However, the biggest problem with the promising project "Three Kingdoms Online" seems to be outside the game...

Chen Qin took the mobile phone from the boy at the same table, connected to the Internet, and used Monternet to open the homepage of Moyou.com, but before throwing the phone to the boy at the same table, Chen Qin took a look at it himself.

The narrow web1 page is full of news and information about "Super Run", even the news that Sky has won another championship is three rows behind.

Recently, "Super Run" is too hot.

I don’t know why it is so popular, but in short, its performance after listing has completely exceeded the expectations of Chen Qin, a reborn person. Although its quality is not high, judging from future experience, it is the reason why it is not popular—especially in March this year. After the Go Kart goes online, the quality of all aspects of the Go Kart should have been far superior to it.

But probably because the strategy of encircling the cities from the countryside was very successful, the advertisements of second- and third-tier Internet cafes may really have that much power...

In short, this game not only beats its peers, but also beats its brothers who need to be nursed. Although its payment rate is not high now, the number of players is seven or eight times that of Three Kingdoms Online. Look at most of the media’s promotional resources for this game. , it feels quite boring...

But there is no way.

No one can stop the turmoil, and anyway, according to his plan, "Three Kingdoms Online" can continue to operate.

After all, games are a content industry, and it is certainly possible to take advantage of the trend, but if you really want to make big money, you don’t have to worry about the success or failure of the game.

Thinking of this, Chen Qin's thoughts drifted to other places. For example, recently, the country suddenly started to blow the wind that online games are spiritual opium, and the development progress of the P2P universal client is not going well...Suddenly the phone vibrated, and the boy next to him hurriedly gave the phone to him : "Oh, Chen Qin, your text message."

Although Mr. Chen spends a lot of money, he hates others to touch his text messages. These boys play with his mobile phone, and when they see the text messages, they immediately return the things to him. Chen Qin didn't care at all. The number of this mobile phone is a backup number, and the text messages are probably automatic. Forwarded mail service.

When I opened it, I saw it was from Gu Wenjie.

"Aotian, I need to talk to you about something, are you free?"

Boss Chen is a busy man. If his subordinates ask questions all day long, they will be fired.

But Gu Wenjie had a lot going on recently, and he was too embarrassed to talk about him, so Chen Qin took his temper and waited until the break to go to the grove.

"what happened?"

Chen Qin pressed his voice and asked him that Gu Wenjie really had nothing serious: "Actually, I just want to ask, do you really think the stock market will collapse next year?"

"I guessed it." Chen Qin said, "If it's not next year, it's the year after, or if it's not the year after, it's the year after. In short, there are signs, and I think it will collapse."

This is of course nonsense. After all, the 08 economic crisis itself had certain unexpected factors. Of course, since he knows the answer, it makes sense whatever he says.

Gu Wenjie hesitated and said, "Look at the board of directors today. Has your lawyer reported to you? The board of directors just made a suggestion, saying that we agreed to acquire an overseas company."

It was probably said, but Chen Qin didn't read it... The directors of Kuaikan Media are now specially hired lawyers. On weekdays, you don't have to worry about too many things. As long as you watch your own equity, the rest is to shout out to Gu Wenjie. Cheer up and compete with another group of shareholders led by Yahoo.

Chen Qin said that I would ask him later, Gu Wenjie explained directly: "Today Yahoo and Ali jointly put forward a proposal, that is, we will acquire the dnf company at the beginning of the year, and now they can agree, but the conditions are a bit harsh..."

"What conditions?"

"It means to give priority to the acquisition of supercar developers."

"Then buy it."

Chen Qin nodded. He also knew about it. Now the country is developing national online games, and it is also called "spiritual opium", which is essentially for the economy. In the early years, South Korea specialized in exporting online games. Chinese companies only acted as agents, and South Korean companies only relied on channels. Fei can eat a lot of food, and now facing such a large amount of outflow of capital, and Shanda's package of messes with its agents, the government's impression of overseas online games is getting worse and worse, and this is "Zhengtu" "The reason why experts and scholars are caught criticizing "World of Warcraft" is that it is so grandiose that no one cares about it.

"Super Runner" is inexplicably popular. It is indeed a reasonable decision to directly acquire the channel party after making money, but considering the policy trend, the development company of Super Runner has to be bought as soon as possible.

Gu Wenjie asked: "Then you can't buy the DNF you mentioned?"

"Do you have money?" Chen Qin asked, "You have to have money to buy it, otherwise, let's wait until next year."

"It's rich!" Gu Wenjie said on the phone, "Although there is no plan to go public, they can raise another wave of funds recently. Besides, Yahoo's attitude has suddenly changed recently, and they are willing to invest more."

Chen Qin was a little disgusted: "Those people at Yahoo are really annoying, can't you find someone else?"

"Others want us to actively go public," Gu Wenjie felt helpless, "Yahoo's conditions are better. They say that if the acquisition is successful, they don't have to go public for the time being, and if we agree, we can represent the game you mentioned to Moyou. go."

Chen Qin was taken aback: "You mean he cashed us out directly?"

"Yes, but there are conditions. We have to give priority to the acquisition of the developer of the supercar."

"Oh……"

Chen Qin nodded, it sounds like it's okay.

Yahoo has never been very involved in personnel affairs before. Recently, it seems that it is jealous of the popularity of Weibo, and wants to talk about acquisitions with Facebook, and wants to curry favor with Santiago. It seems that it has changed a bit.

This is indeed good news, although I vaguely feel that I should be careful, there may be fraud in it... But running a company itself is not a complete zero-sum game, especially when we are at the same round table of directors, trying to get the company up and running. Compromise with each other is the norm under this framework.

Chen Qin had no objection, and the recess time was almost over. After saying a few words, he hung up the call, and then returned to the classroom with his mobile phone in his pocket, walked quickly through the corridor, and when he reached the corner in front of the classroom, the class bell had already It rang.

Chen Qin was thinking about whether he should simply skip the class, and also whether he would be caught by the dean if he ran out now.

He bumped into a girl while turning the corner.

"oops!"

The girl scattered all over the floor with her homework in her arms, and she also fell on the concrete floor.

Chen Qin himself didn't fall down, so he hurried to pull her up. Among the students with sniveling noses, this girl had recently started to "female big change". It can be seen that the youthful and soft slender curves, the soft hair is tied into a ponytail, and it is swayed when walking, which will already attract the eyes of some young and ignorant boys.

"Oh, isn't this Xu Lingling, the study committee member of our class? Why are you only returning to the classroom now?"

Chen Qin casually talked to her and helped her pick up the homework on the ground. Xu Lingling got up angrily, clutching her buttocks and complaining to him: "Mr. Xiao Meng suddenly asked me to hold the homework, it's not that I want to go... ..."

She was probably a little guilty. Recently, her grades had continued to decline, but she was still on the study committee. After Chen Qin hit her, he used this matter to tease her, and she complained angrily, but Chen Qin quickly helped her clean it up. He picked up his things, then left with his homework in his arms: "Hurry up, it's time for class."

"Oh, that's what I hugged..."

Chen Qin ignored her. After returning to the classroom, Teacher Xiaomeng was on the podium. Chen Qin took the lead in putting the homework book on the podium, and then Xu Lingling followed behind empty-handed.

"Oh--"

The bored boys started booing, Chen Qin made a serious gesture of 'quiet' and then went down first, but he didn't know what Teacher Xiao Meng felt, so he took the initiative to smooth things over: "Students usually talk to each other. Help each other, it's good to help out when you see a female classmate who can't carry things, Xu Lingfei, you go down first, let's continue the class..."
