When Ma Fengyun was hurt and happy by such a surprise, he was actually not the only one who was hurt and happy. Alipay raised prices by supporting tutoring, and then people saw clues in expanding the field of tutoring. Later, it showed its skills in the gaming industry, making people understand what this thing is and how terrifying its ability to attract money is.
At present, there are very few B2B websites in China, only Alibaba and the somewhat different Huiming.com. But the booming game market is now full of players.
Although Xuri Technology is currently the most powerful prince, it cannot dominate the world like the Qin Dynasty. Whether it's Ninetowns, Zhonglian, or NetEase, which is becoming more and more vocal after continuous revisions and upgrades.
They are not opponents that can be defeated easily. Although Rising Sun Technology has the advantage in terms of strength, the weapons in their hands are also the sharpest. But what they held in their hands were swords instead of fire sticks, plus some minor princes of the next level.
The gaming market is expanding at an alarming rate compared to the previous Internet bubble period, and Alipay has always been an insurmountable part of this expansion process.
After all, if there was no Alipay, it wouldn't matter if everyone was selling recharge cards to play games. After all, everyone is the same. But when players of Xuri Technology use Alipay, you can't let your players buy troublesome recharge cards, right?
There are also game companies with deep backgrounds that have contacted banks and want to achieve cooperation similar to Alipay. The speed at which Minsheng has expanded its user base by relying on migrant workers and gamers has really made major banks jealous, and some private financing banks also want to follow suit.
The results are unsatisfactory. State-owned banks have tight cards that cannot be loosened at all. Private banks seem to have more freedom, but they do not have the credibility that Alipay relies on supporting teachers and tutoring.
Nowadays, when it comes to the Internet, everyone subconsciously feels that there are various insecurities. Accounts are hacked when playing games, and accounts are hacked when chatting about MM or CC.
If you want players to be able to bind their bank cards to recharge in-game with confidence, how many of them are completely confident?
Moreover, banks that directly develop this market cannot guarantee that the payment system they create is safe. Whether it is performance or functionality, even the most basic security cannot be compared with Alipay. How can this be played?
Later, some clever game companies approached China Mobile for cooperation and used phone recharges for in-game consumption. This idea is not ingenious, and both China Mobile and China Unicom are keen on this fast fat.
But in the end, when it came to usage charges, everyone was a bit speechless. First of all, whether it is China Unicom, China Mobile, or China Telecom’s mobile phone.
Their main business is mobile communications. The phone fee is the cost of making a call. They have their own system for how to deduct fees after recharging.
Turning phone calls into game recharge fees requires a separate system for settlement and docking with the previous phone bill system for deductions.
Such a system is not difficult to implement, but it is not easy to implement. After all, the current phone bill system is still being improved, and errors occasionally occur. If it is equipped with such a system, it will definitely have more data and be more error-prone.
Therefore, the three major operators all have high requirements in terms of fees. Although not as high as Lion, the internal recharge of the game is half of the game company and half of mine.
But basically the usage fee is around 15%, that is, the player spends 100 yuan in the game, the game company spends 85 yuan, and the communication company spends 15 yuan.
Although this ratio is not low, it is actually not high either. Once it is done, everyone can make money. But everyone is afraid of comparison. There is Alipay, although it is very tough to ask for 10% of the usage fee, which is a dime, but the attitude is very bad.
But doesn’t the 5% price difference sound good to him?
fragrant!
And it's very fragrant, 90% of the time. Last year, the amount of internal game consumption paid through spending was 54 million, and a 5% cost difference was 2.7 million. This much money is enough to develop a new game. When The9 originally represented "Online Three Kingdoms", the agency fee was less than 500,000.
So after struggling for a while, even well-informed people felt that Alipay and Xuri Technology had an ulterior relationship. But in the end, they all used Alipay.
Therefore, recently, payment accounts and other domestic banks have begun to sign contracts and reach cooperation, and the bosses of game companies are in a state of confusion.
What’s so popular is that Alipay has basically achieved full coverage of all Internet users. In addition, in the Internet cafe alliances all over the country, Alipay has become the most important standard equipment in Internet cafes in addition to computers and network cables.
As long as players want to recharge money in the game, everything is fast and efficient, and the recharge fee will be paid in minutes. Of course, Alipay informed us that after the first phase of cooperation ends, the subsequent cooperation contract will need to be renegotiated.
This has made many game company CEOs regretful, even though Alipay is one-third cheaper than the 15% price of communication companies.
But 10% are still cutting the flesh of the game company, and these bosses still feel the pain. Therefore, no one who has signed a contract with Alipay has signed a long-term contract. The most signed contract with Ninetowns is for three years. The others are basically signed once a year, and very few are signed for two years.
When the contract expires and is renegotiated, Alipay holds the power to cover all Internet users in the country. Although Alipay wants to kick communication companies out of this market, it is impossible for Alipay to increase the usage fee to an exaggerated 15%. But even if it only increases by one percentage point, it is enough to make these bosses suffer from liver pain.
So these bosses were calculating with their eyes gleaming how many percentage points their game sales could be increased by fully covering this time, while glaring fearfully at Alipay's verdict.
But there are also some who are bold and far-sighted, and still contact some capital and people with big backgrounds to see if they can get a share of this online payment transaction market.
At present, the domestic game industry is heading towards tens of billions at an astonishing speed, and this is far from the end of the game market. The tens of billions industry may be reached next year, and then the next stop will be the hundreds of billions industry.
And even 10% of the handling fee for a tens-billion industry is only 1 billion. Many large private companies and even some state-owned enterprises may not make so much profit in a year.
And people with outstanding vision have already seen the signs. Games are not the only way to make money on Alipay. With the diversification of network development.
As long as you spend money online, you can't seem to avoid this guy, and the Internet industry seems to have exceeded the 100 billion mark last year.
If we look at the American Internet as a comparison, the future of this industry will be a trillion-dollar Big Mac. In such a large industry, let alone eating meat, you can even drink a mouthful of soup to fill the ditch.
"Who is that Young Master Yang?" Sun Tong couldn't help but ask as he looked back at the Xinghai Hotel which was gradually disappearing from his sight.
Everyone seemed to be very enthusiastic when they met for the first time. Yang Dongxu was in a good mood and had two drinks. Hu Dashan and Miao Shan are undoubtedly good people.
A country that runs markets all over the country, looking for an absolutely huge number of suppliers, and a society that used to be a mixed society now runs transportation. Before drunk driving was written into the law, wasn't that big truck driver a wine barrel?
The worst one is Zhang Tianming, the CEO with a scholarly attitude, but even so, it is only half a catty, and you can get it by holding on to a pound.
So after drinking this big drink, Ma Fengyun was already lying on the back seat, and Sun Tong's head was also dizzy. But even if he fainted again, his curiosity about Yang Dongxu seemed to outweigh the alcohol for a while.
Ma Fengyun, who was already lying on the back seat and snoring, naturally couldn't give him an answer, so Sun Tong kept chanting like a mantra under the driver's nervous gaze.
Chen Xin was not at home, so Yang Dongxu, who felt a little dizzy and was sleeping, stayed directly at the Xinghai Hotel. Every star-rated hotel has some luxury suites that are not open to the public.
Some of these are self-reserved rooms for shareholders, while others are used to welcome important guests. Yang Dongxu has such a suite in Xinghai Hotel, and so does Li Fujin.
But later, after caring and confirming with Li Fuzhen, the two suites became one suite. In Li Fuzhen's words, the annual maintenance fee for a high-end suite is a lot of money, so what's the point of eating if it's not open to the public? This three-star princess instantly had the aura of a good wife and loving mother.
Even though Yang Dongxu and she could only stay in this room a few times a year, it was fine when Li Fujin was in Hangzhou. As long as she didn't go on a business trip, she could stay there once a month. After all, she had her own house, a very high-end apartment.
Now Li Fuzhen is flying all over the country, and is even preparing to open branches in Malaysia and Singapore. If Yang Dongxu does not need to work, he will not see anyone at Xinghai Hotel all year round, and the so-called reserved rooms are basically empty all year round.
"Stop going back and forth, go to the front desk and book a room yourself, and you will calculate the public expenses yourself how to arrange it." Yang Dongxu said to Du Fei after going upstairs.
Du Fei nodded and gave instructions to the people below, and followed Yang Dongxu into the room. If Li Fuzhen were here, then Du Fei would definitely have the sense to go down and get a room by himself.
But Li Fujin was no longer alone with Yang Dongxu, and he would definitely sleep outside that night. It is also where Li Fuzhen's bodyguard often sleeps. The bed is actually quite comfortable and no worse than the room below.
"Brother Du said when did he come back? Things are not peaceful over there recently." After entering the room, Yang Dongxu took off his coat and threw it on the sofa.
After the terrorist attacks, the United States became ruthless against terrorist organizations. Even if the president said it was useless to stand up and say that he did not do it, the anti-terrorism alert around the world was instantly raised to the highest level, and the situation in the Middle East became increasingly tense. Therefore, Yang Dongxu did not want Du Suo to go in first and asked the Sharp Blade Security Company to selectively transfer him.
"There is no news for the time being, but the possibility of coming back is not high. Even if they withdraw, some brothers will withdraw, and the main backbone will probably stay there. The last thing those who eat this food are afraid of is chaos. The more chaos, the better the business, the higher the price. ." Du Fei licked his lips with a little resentment in his eyes.
Du Suo and Jie Chengwu are both older, although their kung fu skills are beginning to reach the threshold of the master level. But combat power is for the enemy, and for Yang Dongxu, what he needs is protection ability.
Therefore, in the past few years, Jie Chengwu was able to switch classes with Du Fei, but now he stayed in the Middle East and wandered around with Du Suo. Yang Dongxu's safety work was all handed over to Du Fei, and there was no one to replace him.
This kind of thing will undoubtedly continue for a long time, because Du Fei has not seen any trace of his crew at present. I was training little Hutou before, but all the training before this damn thing went to play football was in vain.
