When the Legend Department was finally fully staffed and the company began to develop new games, Yang Dongxu began to focus on the current domestic game market.
Stimulated by legendary games, the domestic game market can be said to be in full bloom this year, and it has been called the first year of domestic online games.
First, Zhonglian, which makes small games, represented "The King of Kings" and started its public beta. Then Ninetowns Game Company, which was newly established for more than half a year, began to be aggressive. It first represented "Online Three Kingdoms" and within a few months, it started negotiating for "Stone Age". 》It looks like it wants to dominate the domestic online game market.
However, what focused Yang Dongxu’s attention was not this, but the fact that QQ, the instant messaging market he had always been obsessed with, did not appear. Instead, a Feixun Technology CC appeared.
Moreover, this chat software was not initially introduced into the market in China after being modified according to foreign software, but directly cooperated with the foreign MIBI company.
With a lot of start-up capital, he took root in China in less than three months. When Yang Dongxu noticed him, he had already registered one million users, and the number of registered users was still growing rapidly.
This is a cross-generational product. In the past, when Internet cafes first came out, everyone could only play online games in a local area network. Now, online games have begun to be networked across the country.
Countless netizens are eager to communicate with each other on the Internet, and the emergence of CC just meets the needs of all netizens, so it has been launched and is so popular.
CC did not do any publicity before, not even any advertising. Instead, it is somewhat similar to the plug-in sales model and it is directly promoted in Internet cafes.
So when Yang Dongxu discovered him, he already had millions of users. But this is not what surprises him. What surprises him is that currently the domestic chat soft armor market is not dominated by one company.
CC has shown itself to be a domineering figure since it first emerged, but at the beginning of this month, that is, in early July, another giant crocodile came into the country and obtained the Microsoft MSN agency rights. Parkson Technology, which also brought 10 million start-up capital, was quietly established. , and carried out the inside of the domestic version of MSN three days ago.
If the sudden rise of CC made Yang Dongxu a little confused, it was because this did not exist in his memory at all. The emergence of MSN made him completely dizzy. Such a pattern of the IT market made him feel extremely unfamiliar and he couldn't help but panic.
So he made great efforts to collect information about these two chat software companies. After careful study, his heart slowly returned to his stomach, but his brows could not relax.
I don't know if his appearance caused a slight deviation in the development of IT, so he didn't appear. However, two more powerful companies appeared directly.
In 1999, he was definitely fearless when facing the newly established Tencent. He was even waiting for the story about Boss Ma selling QQ for 100,000 yuan to see if he could rob it.
But what he didn't expect was that this opportunity didn't appear at all, and two chat software giants appeared directly. Whether it is CC belonging to MIBI Company, which has occupied a huge market share in the international chat market.
It is still MSN owned by IT giant Microsoft. This makes all companies that want to enter the network communication software market undoubtedly have to face two big mountains at the beginning. If they are not careful, they will be crushed to pieces, and both of them will be crushed. Currently, the company has shown that it wants to dominate domestic netizens and does not give other companies any room to survive.
"Everything is correct, the development progress and current functions are correct, but why does it make me feel completely different?" Yang Dongxu rubbed his forehead in distress after reading the information in his hand.
Originally he wanted to figure it out slowly, but the irresistible change caught him off guard. This undoubtedly created a huge gap in his heart and even made him feel a little confused.
At this time, Qiu Bosong, who was familiar with the current working environment, called him and asked him about the development of chat software and CC and the upcoming MSN. When are we ready? Let's start.
"Wait a minute. At present, we will build the internal chat system of the game first, and then develop a separate chat software based on this. We have lost the opportunity. Did you know CC for a long time?" Yang Dongxu rubbed his hands. He asked with his forehead on the side.
"I learned about it before. Didn't you prepare to make communication software because you saw the CC fire and Microsoft suddenly came to China to get involved?" Qiu Bosong asked a little strangely.
When Yang Dongxu lured him over, although he gave him the browser task he had promised before, he also asked him to prepare for the communication software. He thought that Yang Dongxu was like the current popular online game company. He saw that online games became popular instantly. They all popped up, so I wanted to imitate CC as a chat software.
"Um... I didn't care about this before. After all, I make online games, and Dongxu Technology operates telecommunications products and services. Originally, I wanted to facilitate game communication and expand the chat software. I just saw CC in the past two days. So let’s build the browser first and assist in the development of the in-game chat system.” Yang Dongxu’s mind worked quickly to sort out his messy mind.
He couldn't say that the empire in his memory had disappeared. He occasionally searched the Internet for news about communications and found nothing. He told his subordinates to pay attention to the company Tencent, but because the other party did not show up, he didn't care. As a result, other companies in the chat software market were simply ignored, right?
"Then let me build a browser first. There is currently no decent browser in China. Although 123 is good, the number of users is not high. Other browsers are basically agents from foreign countries. We need to develop a browser that is suitable for domestic netizens and belongs to us. browser." Qiu Bosong said without any doubt that he followed the idea in his mind.
"Well, let's do this first, but don't leave behind the in-game chat system. You can communicate with Chang Hao. The development of Swordsman is going very smoothly. Fortunately, he has been working on the chat system. Which game happens to be familiar to you, so You can work together to make this first."
"Okay, I will communicate with Chang Hao later." Swordsman was originally a product under the leadership of Qiu Bosong. Although one theme was a stand-alone game, it has now been changed into an online game with many game elements added, and some versions have even been changed.
But just cooperating to develop the in-game friend chat system is not difficult for Qiu Bosong, and it won't take too much time, because Chang Hao will definitely do the specific work, and he and Chang Hao can communicate with each other and give instructions.
Compared with games, he is more optimistic about browsers and Yang Dongxu's description of computer security guards. This is what an aspiring programmer like him should do.
"If you have any difficulties or lack of manpower, you can ask Dongxu Technology Software Development Department for help." Yang Dongxu reminded.
At present, Dongxu Technology is divided into two major departments, one is the hardware department and the other is the software department. As for other industries that have nothing to do with computers and software, they have been temporarily assigned to Lei Jun's mobile phone R&D department, such as MP3.
Yang Dongxu's current idea is to integrate this thing into the mobile phone, so assigning it to Lei Jun to manage it will allow him to get familiar with the functions of MP3 and see how to integrate it into the mobile phone.
The two major departments of Dongxu Technology are currently developing rapidly without any weaknesses. In terms of computer hardware, needless to say the hard drive can be said to be the best. Although the processor is currently not ranked among the top in the world, it is not among the top five. If there is any problem, the software in the graphics card memory module can also reach the domestic first-class and foreign level.
And the research and development of mobile phone chips has also reached the forefront of the world. At least 40% of the mobile phone chips currently used by Nokia are produced by Dongxu Technology, and Dongxu Technology has many patents in the chip concentration.
In terms of software, the MP3 system currently launched by Dongxu Technology and the Fuxi mobile phone system independently developed by Nokia mobile phone system are also in steady progress. In addition, the cashier system developed for supermarkets, the management system currently used in Internet cafes, and the current Alipay system, It can be said that the results are quite fruitful.
Even now, because Minsheng Bank feels that the old banking system is too slow to use, it has discussed with Dongxu Technology to develop a bank management system. After all, now that the whole country is connected to the Internet, a stable and secure management system can get twice the result with half the effort. For example, the simplicity and speed of Alipay made Minsheng management very envious.
"Where did Cheng Yunxiang and Qian Jincai come from? I haven't heard of these two big names coming out of nowhere before?" After reciting the names of the current CEOs of the two chat software companies, Yang Dongxu scratched his scalp and threw the information in his hand on the table. superior.
He originally planned to dominate both the game market and the communication software market, and then expand to the entire IT market. However, just at the beginning, two turbulences came, or two tsunamis swept across the country, which made him extremely frustrated. My balls hurt.
I secretly decided that in the future, in addition to paying attention to the game companies and big names that I was familiar with, I also had to grasp all the dynamic information in the industry at one hand. Being beaten for two seasons was indeed extremely depressing.
Sitting in the office, Yang Dongxu closed his eyes and calmed down for a while, smoothing out the confusing thoughts in his mind. He found that the advantage he had was still huge. The reason he was confused just now was just because two unheard of spoilers suddenly appeared, leaving him in a state of confusion for a moment while he had always been sure of victory.
Turning on the computer, Yang Dongxu skillfully used the five-stroke input method to start writing a business plan, and made some adjustments to the previously prepared development plan.
At first, Gongzu's cell phone that he had placed on the table rang not long after. When he saw the phone number, his face was stunned for a moment.
"Why did Boss Zong think of calling me?" Yang Dongxu asked with a smile.
"Why are you disturbing me?"
"How is that possible? You can just call me every day."
"Haha, I won't talk to you anymore. There is a party tonight if you have nothing to do, come and join it."
"Party?" Yang Dongxu had a surprised look on his face, obviously not expecting that the other party was calling about this matter.
"They are all people in the circle."
"Oh, oh, I understand. Where are you at what time tonight? I will definitely be there."
