Top of the big era

GitHub is the hottest open source community abroad, and it became a hit soon after its launch.

Naturally, there is no shortage of imitators in China.

The best one should be CSDN, which is the technology media website where Liang Jing used to be the vice president, and later opened up an open source community business.

However, not all free.

A website needs to be profitable.

Developers need to pay to download open source code on CSDN. Many websites in China use this business model. They get content from creators for free, and then sell it to users for a fee.

The reason is that the website is too small to complete the integration of resources, and the profit model is very single, so it can only play the advertising model or the payment model.

For large companies, there is another model of traffic conversion, which is a model in which the wool comes from the pig and the dog pays the bill.

Such as micro-point security guards.

Users can use it for free, and Ziweixing also restrains in placing advertisements for the sake of user experience. So how does this product make money?

First of all, it is to create a micro-point brand. Promote Weidian browser, Weidian account book, Weidian note, Weidian music, Weidian input method and other products, and make money through other "Weidian" products.

And more directly, it is the software library section of Micropoint Security Guard.

If users want to download any software, they can go to the Internet to search directly... Not only is it troublesome, but it is also dangerous, and they may download viruses or bundled software.

Go directly to the micro-point security guard to download the software, which is safe and reliable.

Every time a software is downloaded, it is equivalent to a promotion for the software manufacturer by the micropoint security guard, and a commission can be obtained.

To build a similar open source community, Ziweixing has unique resource conditions that those small companies do not have. We can attract domestic developer traffic through such a free open source community, and then use this wave of traffic to do business that other small companies cannot do.

Such as cloud computing.

Guo Pengfei explained this, "The outsourcing business of Ziweixing Engineering Institute is not easy to operate. Big companies can say that we send the project code to them and let them do it themselves. But some small companies with weak technical strength, Even if we give them the code, they may not be able to build it."

Zhou Buqi was deeply touched by this, and said: "Yes, just like you were back then. I heard that you dated Guan Ting, and after watching a movie at night, Guan Ting said it was too late and didn't want to go back to the dormitory. She is a girl, You did everything you could, and you ended up going to the hotel to open two rooms. This is a matter of skill level, and you may not be able to catch it even if it is delivered to your door.”

Guo Pengfei almost died of anger, "Damn! Who is spreading rumors about me? Nothing!"

Zhou Buqi said seriously: "Don't change the subject, let's get down to business!"

Guo Pengfei glared at him bitterly, gritted his teeth and said, "Anyway, that's what it means. The outsourcing business of the Academy of Engineering is not going well for some small and medium-sized enterprises and public institutions. We need to send people to help them build the environment. Once outsourcing If there is a fault, we may have to send a technical team to help them maintain it.”

Zhou Buqi nodded, "Well, Cheng Binghao told me. Because small and medium-sized customers are too difficult to maintain, his main targets are medium and large customers, which are relatively well-known technology companies."

Guo Pengfei said: "But there are only a few big companies, and the larger market has been given up to others. At the last technical committee meeting, Zhang Yiming proposed a plan, which was unanimously approved by everyone."

"cloud computing?"

"Yes, outsourcing services to the cloud."

"Integrate with open source code?"

Zhou Buqi felt a sense of enlightenment.

This group of people is very powerful. The integration and utilization of resources are really bold and sharp. The key is to be proactive. Now Ziweixing's cloud computing business has not yet launched, and the decision-making committee and technical committee are already laying out the business model after the cloud computing project is successful in the future.

Guo Pengfei said: "How many outsourced projects do we have? A few hundred is about the same, but GitHub has been online for half a year, and there are more than 100,000 open source projects. For small and medium-sized enterprises, even if there are free open source projects, they may not We can use it. We can use cloud computing engineering to put some excellent open source projects on the cloud to complete code hosting.”

"Code hosting? What's the point?"

"It can be applied online through the cloud. For example, for an open source project, no one knows how the dense code will be presented. You need to download the code and run it again. But for some small and medium-sized enterprises, this The process is not easy. We can run directly online through the cloud computing platform.”

"Is this a paid business?"

"Such a powerful function must be paid for. It can be used as the main profit model of the free open source community. It can be combined with the cloud computing platform. Even the outsourcing projects of the engineering institute can also be put in, and deployed to small and medium-sized enterprises through the cloud computing platform. We don't need it." A technical team was specially sent offline to help them debug continuously. As long as they connect to the cloud platform, all operations will run online.”

Such a concept has exceeded Zhou Buqi's cognition, "Is there any more? Competitiveness needs more powerful functions."

Guo Pengfei smiled and said: "Yes, code hosting... I'm afraid you won't understand if I talk too much. The implementation of some complex algorithms, security checks, or memory management functions will be very complicated and the amount of code will be huge. Also Including some middleware that can be packaged. If you download the code locally for execution, it will be too complicated and may not be able to operate well. It can be hosted in the cloud. Only some simple functions are designed on the local side, and the core complex functions are implemented. If they are all connected to the managed code in the cloud, it can provide great convenience for developers.”

Zhou Buqi tried to understand, "Just like Mokai Helo, Baidu Helo and Rainbow Helo all have a simple appearance, and the core is to use user data stored in the Ziweixing database. The code hosting service is to let developers Can do the simplest work, complex algorithms and middleware go to the cloud to call managed code.”

Guo Pengfei clapped his hands and applauded, "Yes! That's what it means! Boss Zhou, you are very smart! Now that you understand, let me explain in detail. Just like there are many music websites in the incubation base of Xiaonei.com, they are all built from scratch. It's very troublesome, and many college students who are new to computers can't do it. We can provide this kind of service. First, provide an open source community, and college students can download the code of the music website for free, so they don't have to write it from scratch. Subsequent modifications can be made , Coordination is also relatively complicated, and can be further simplified. Give up the most difficult functions to implement, and directly use the managed code in the cloud. College students only need to do some of the simplest web design, change the name and change the background. Combining offline and online, a website is built. In fact, it is the thinking of Python language. When encountering difficulties, don’t think about solving them, just bypass them. Do the simplest one well, and then call the existing ones for the unsolvable problems. mature solution."

"Python?"

As soon as Zhou Buqi's eyes lit up, he knew it. This is the most popular programming language in the future. It is easy to learn and extremely easy to use. C language, C++, etc., don’t even think about getting started if you don’t learn it for two or three years. Python is different. After learning two or three months, you can go directly to the development of the field of artificial intelligence.

"Yes, Python, you know?" Guo Pengfei glanced at him, "Internet projects in the future will become larger and more complex. This requires extremely high scalability of the language... Forget it, you don't understand .”

Zhou Buqi said: "Why don't you understand? Isn't it just Lenovo mode!"

"Huh?" Guo Pengfei was slightly taken aback, then laughed, "It seems to be the same."

If you encounter difficulties, just bypass them and just do what you can. Difficulties are then resolved through external services. For Internet developers, if the core code is not well done, they go to the cloud to buy hosting code services. For manufacturing practitioners, if the core components cannot be produced, they can bypass difficulties and directly purchase them.

This can greatly improve efficiency and reduce costs.

But the disadvantages are also obvious. For example, the hosting code service that Ziweixing will develop in the future, it is impossible for giants like BAT to use it, mainly to help some weak developers.

Just like the Python language will become popular in the future, it is loved by developers all over the world. But the most senior and most powerful engineers still play complex languages ​​such as C language and C++, which open up roads and build bridges when encountering water.

Zhou Buqi waved his hands, and asked angrily, "When will you and Guan Ting do business?"

"It's already been done! Who do you look down on?" Guo Pengfei couldn't forget this, and felt that he had been hit on his weakness, "I opened two rooms that night, and they were already living together. Don't listen to rumors about me! "

"Damn! I didn't ask when you two went to bed. I said when your wedding banquet will be held. I still have a lot of things to deal with abroad. I was tricked by you and came back. Are you still reasonable?"

"Oh, the night after tomorrow, at the Jade Palace Hotel."

"Who is there?"

"Only our group of people, the Ten Schools Entrepreneurship Alliance, didn't notify the public. Well, you can bring your family."

"Is Chen Dong coming back?"

"Back!"

Zhou Buqi nodded, "Then I'll send a plane to pick him up."

"What?" Guo Pengfei almost died of anger, "How can you do this? You bought a plane, but I have never been on it. How about you, send a plane to Japan to pick up Chen Dong back to China?"

Zhou Buqi laughed, "There will be opportunities in the future."

Of course not to pick up Chen Dong.

Now, "Red Cliff" has been released in Japan, and it is unprecedentedly popular. It can be called the hottest and most popular movie of the year in Japan. Under this situation, Wu Yu and Ning Yameng have already gone to Japan, and whether their blind box business can be completed is likely to depend on it.

If Zhou Buqi hadn't been abroad for a month, Wu Yu would have been anxious to go abroad to find him if he hadn't been tied down in his career.

I heard blind box sales are pretty good.

It's time to bring them back.

Warm and warm.

Especially Ning Yameng.

Her elder sister is two months pregnant, so she, as a younger sister, has to work harder.

Young people, don't be lazy!
