Great country technology, I have a system where hard work pays off!

#62 - Penguin Company: China is too small to accommodate two communication giants!

Shenzhen, Tencent headquarters, inside a large conference room.

"Creak."

As Ma Huateng slowly walked into the conference room, the dozens of people inside immediately stood up in unison, causing the chairs to scrape against the floor.

Looking at the people who stood up neatly to greet him, Ma Huateng nodded with satisfaction, and then strode towards the head of the conference table.

Sitting down slowly, Ma Huateng waved his hand, and the people who received the signal sat down in unison.

In just under ten seconds, Ma Huateng's immense prestige within Tencent was on full display.

"Next, let's officially begin the meeting."

After saying this as usual, Ma Huateng turned his gaze to Liu Zhiping, the general manager of Tencent.

Liu Zhiping's reputation isn't very prominent, but he is actually the biggest contributor to Tencent.

Because without Liu Zhiping, Tencent would not have become the super internet enterprise it is today, involved in mobile value-added services, news portal services, game services, music platform services, online shopping platform services, angel investment, and other businesses!

"Lao Liu, tell us about your observations."

"Okay."

Liu Zhiping responded and then stood up to introduce his findings and predictions about the future internet landscape.

When people heard about the huge potential harm of Geek Internet Cafe Management Software unifying the internet cafe management software market, they immediately became highly vigilant.

After all, as insiders, they naturally knew why Tencent was able to achieve its current success and what the secret to their success was.

Whether it was the news portal website, the Paipai online shopping platform, QQ Music, or the many wildly popular games, the reason they were able to achieve such impressive results was not because their products were so excellent that they far surpassed their competitors.

It was because QQ, with its more than 30 million concurrent users and 800 million registered users, was constantly importing massive amounts of traffic!

Without QQ's constant influx of traffic, the many games they launched, the Paipai online shopping platform, QQ Music, Tencent Portal, and other products would never have succeeded.

Therefore, the people present deeply understood how powerful it was to import a large amount of traffic into a certain product.

They also deeply understood how much help Geek Internet Cafe Management Software would give to Geek Computer Company's products once it really unified the domestic internet cafe management software market.

And how huge the damage to their Tencent would be!

"This Geek Computer Company is simply ambitious!"

Someone in the conference room said something that made everyone present secretly nod in agreement.

That Geek Computer Company was indeed ambitious. Fortunately, they discovered it early, otherwise, if Geek Computer Company had achieved its plan, Tencent would be in danger.

After all, once Geek Computer Company's conspiracy was achieved, and Geek Internet Cafe Management Software occupied more than 90% of the internet cafe management software market share.

At that time, if Geek Internet Cafe Management Software were to make their QQ chat or game products incompatible or have bugs, Tencent would be in trouble.

Moreover, not to mention such dangerous things, just in terms of normal business competition, what if Geek Computer Company also entered the game industry?

And then launched games similar to "QQ Speed", "QQ Fantasy", "QQ Tang", etc., wouldn't that pose a huge threat to Tencent?

After all, the number of game players in China is limited, and the number of new game players added every day is so small.

In this stock market competition, you can only find ways to snatch meat from other companies, otherwise, you can only go hungry.

Therefore, if Geek Computer Company really came up with similar games to grab Tencent's market share, it would be the worst situation.

"I propose a targeted crackdown on Geek Computer Company's Geek Internet Cafe Management Software!"

Ren Yu, the operations director in charge of the game business, who was known as the 'King of Games' in his previous life, expressed his opinion.

"I agree too."

Zhang Zhidong, the director of Tencent's technology research and development department, also expressed his opinion.

"Since that's the case, let's start discussing how to solve the problem of Geek Internet Cafe Management Software."

Looking at the core executives who had expressed similar opinions, Ma Huateng glanced around the room and asked:

"Do you have any suggestions?"

Hearing Chairman Ma Huateng's question, the people present looked at each other, and then Operations Director Ren Yu immediately gave his suggestion.

"I propose to directly acquire Wanxiang Internet Cafe Software Company and bring Wanxiang Internet Cafe under our command.

Then, we will cooperate with Shinco Computer Company, and our Tencent Wanxiang Internet Cafe Software and Shinco diskless servers will dominate the internet cafe management software market.

At that time, if we can control more than 90% of the internet cafe management software market share in the country, and 90% of the internet cafe management software is our Tencent's Wanxiang Internet Cafe Software.

Then, when we recommend any games or products in the future, the effect of our traffic import will definitely become even stronger!"

Hearing the words of Operations Director Ren Yu, the people present looked at each other, and then their eyes lit up.

"This is a good suggestion. Acquiring Wanxiang Internet Cafe Software Company can not only attack Geek Computer Company.

It can also make our Tencent's traffic import advantage even stronger. This is a triple-win strategy."

"But our funds are not very abundant."

Chief Financial Officer He Min expressed her opinion.

As the chief financial officer of Tencent, she naturally knew the fact that Tencent's actual funds were very scarce under its surface glory.

After all, Tencent is involved in too many industries: news portals, online shopping platforms, games, music...

Among these many product businesses, only the game business can actually make a lot of money.

The other businesses are either in a state of slight profit or are purely super pitfalls.

For example, the online shopping platform business has deeply pitted Tencent. QQ has given so much traffic to Paipai and given so much financial support.

As a result, Paipai has not even defeated TaoBao, and even Jingdong Mall is somewhat unable to win. It is purely a pitfall.

Finally, coupled with the fact that Tencent has set a plan to vigorously expand the game business this year, preparing to invest money to buy the agency rights of Korean games, while also developing its own games...

So the current Tencent looks very majestic and is called the 'BAT' three major Internet giants by the industry, but the company's financial situation is actually not optimistic at all.

"We can always squeeze it out, just like toothpaste, we can always squeeze out a little."

Operations Director Ren Yu expressed his opinion.

Tencent currently does not have spare money, but it is impossible that it can't take out any money at all.

Seeing this, Ma Huateng thought for a while and said:

"Since that's the case, then let's slow down the matter of purchasing the agency rights of Korean games.

Let's squeeze out the money to acquire Wanxiang Internet Cafe Software Company first, and when we have money in the second half of the year, we will go to acquire the agency rights of Korean games."
