The day is bright and the air is clear. Enter from the east gate of Beijing University and head west.
Passing by Weiming Lake, the wind passed without leaving a trace, and the lake surface was covered with sparkling waves. Willows clung to the lakeside, and winding paths led to secluded areas. Lu Fei turned left and reached the lawn of Jingyuan.
In the outermost open space, there is a row of display racks, with posters swaying slightly in the spring breeze, with the book signing event for "The Legend of Wukong" printed on them.
Students coming and going occasionally stopped to watch.
He looked away, gnawed on the apple, and walked forward quickly, making a phone call as he walked.
Tang Danian on the other end asked doubtfully: "Zeng Li, who is she? What works does she have?"
"I am an actor from the zong trade union art troupe, and I am a senior."
Such an identity is worth a thousand words.
Tang Danian immediately told Jiang Wei that there was no problem at all, and arrangements must be made.
"Who else did you find to audition Mei Xiangnan?"
Lu Fei raised his eyebrows after hearing this. Jiang Wei and the others actually preferred Xu Jinglei because she was a talented girl in the Beijing circle, one of the big flowers, and also Da Sa Mi.
No, sir, do you want to be so ridiculous?
He vaguely felt that the casting was unreliable, and sure enough, "An Jiahe" was picked over and over again, and the ones to be chosen were all positive and good gentlemen like Pu Cunxin, Wu Ruofu, Sun Chun, and Gao Shuguang.
Which of these four is considered pathological or crazy?
Split personality and psychological distortion, you have to look at Feng Yuanzheng.
That's someone who only appeared in thousands of years. He's like a homosexual, a murderer, a paranoid, and he's so evolved that he doesn't need to be acted out. Just poke at it and it will make people shudder.
Tang Danian was confused, "Feng Yuanzheng, who is he?"
"Teacher Fu Dalong recommended him. I originally wanted to find him."
What Lu Fei said was half-truth, and he had indeed approached Fu Dalong. The role he played as Yang Guang was cruel, violent, and vicious, which was quite suitable, but he had no time and was busy working as a network administrator.
He walked into the Ziyuan Hotel with his hands behind his back.
The workers were carrying boxes in and out of Room 1416. Tao Yao and a man were carefully counting and registering the goods. The man was a newly recruited warehouse manager who was responsible for Feigou.com's goods.
They said in unison: "Mr. Lu."
Lu Fei glanced at it casually and saw that they were all "The Legend of Wukong".
Tao Yao said: "Mr. Lu, should we get some more goods from Kyoto University Press? There are only 400 copies. The Yanjing Auditorium has 600 seats. Will it not be enough to distribute?"
What you want is not enough hair!
Lu Fei shook his head and refused, and walked straight into Room 1418. Xu Lei was not there. He was doing final inspections in the auditorium and communicating with the media inside and outside the school.
I went to the research and development team and went around to confirm the pre-sale status of "The Legend of Wukong" on Feigou.com. It has already been pre-heated at Mizuki, Beijing University and other bbs, as well as on the Internet.
Wang Huiwen said it would be on the shelves tonight, but she was worried that the first batch of 500 copies might not be enough.
Let "The Legend of Wukong" fly for a while!
Lu Fei showed a mysterious smile, hid it, and slowly returned to the office, boiling water and making tea, accompanied by the whirring of the hot water kettle and the sound of "didi" from the stereo.
QQ has only reached the second stage. In the third stage, services such as ring tones and videos have not yet been put on the agenda due to bandwidth constraints. The top priority is QQ Show.
This is a Penguin fossil-grade product, the first krypton gold product, and the cornerstone of the real Penguin empire.
Although the SP business is also profitable, with more than 30 million mobile QQ text messages sent in February alone, and at least a monthly turnover of 2.3 million, the more you earn, the more you spend.
After 2001, QQ has 500,000 new users every day. At the beginning of the year, the scale exceeded 35 million. Server costs have skyrocketed. It is simply an endless black hole for swallowing money.
With the addition of super accounts and super members, the financial statements can achieve break-even, with a profit of hundreds of thousands.
"Didi didi~"
The group called "Antarctic Goose City" kept ringing.
Lu Fei's nickname in it was "Nine Tong", and he received the large QQ show file sent by "Five Tong" from Zeng Li Qing, which was more than 10 MB. Fortunately, he installed ASDL broadband, otherwise it would have taken a long time to download.
"Mr. Lu, Hua Teng has different opinions." Zeng Liqing said.
"I feel that since the Penguin department has been re-adjusted internally according to Monternet, it should strike while the iron is hot and add additional R&D SP business."
[Three tubes] Lu Huateng spoke.
He was afraid of being poor. There were two paths at the moment. Monternet was definitely making money, but QQ Show was not necessarily making money. Of course, he would take the former, path-dependent.
"The Internet is afraid of path dependence. Penguin's current situation is like a mercenary helping China Mobile hold on to its platform. We need to find our own base and be self-sufficient."
Lu Fei clicked on the keyboard, and now Monternet is making money. This is because China Mobile shares the profits from the SP business for promotion.
When the banker becomes big, it will be the main deception.
70% of them belong to other people!
"We can't rely on others for food, we have to make our own blood."
Lu Fei sent: "Although the QQ show is the first in China, similar products are already profitable in Bangzi country. You can take a look at the documents."
In fact, QQ Show is not original to Penguin. It is borrowed from Bangzi’s Avatar game, etc. The image design of the first generation QQ Show was all hired designers.
In 2 months, 800 models can be produced.
This is also the current situation of the Chinese Internet in the past. In terms of search, online advertising, and e-commerce, we should learn from the United States. In terms of infinite value-added, online games and other experience-oriented consumption, we should look for sticks to learn from.
After all, they started earlier than China.
Of course, Lu Fei is not copying it. He successfully applied for the Olympics in July and entered the World Cup in October. These QQ shows with football and Olympic themes have to be designed and planned by Penguin himself.
"Hua Teng, what do you think now?"
":)."
Lu Huateng made an expression and decided to give it a try.
"Okay, let's vote again. Who is in favor and who is against?"
[Three tubes] Lu Huateng: "I agree."
[Five Tubes] Zeng Liqing, who is in charge of marketing and operations, also agrees. [Four Tubes] Zhang Zhidong, who is in charge of R&D and technology, [Six Tubes] Chen Yidan and [Seven Tubes] Xu Chenye, who are in charge of administration, all agree.
Looking at this core group of penguin power, Zeng Liqing sat in the office and breathed a long sigh of relief.
With Mr. Lu here, Penguin runs more smoothly.
The previous decision-making mechanism was that if one of them disagreed, the plan would be aborted unless the person who agreed could convince the person who disagreed.
But now, it has completely changed.
Due to the successive successes of super members, super accounts, and Monternet, a leadership group with Lu Fei as the core was initially formed.
Lu Fei intervened in the discussion, but did not intervene in the voting. He acted as a five-person judge. He only had veto power at critical moments, such as strategic plans like today.
He typed and suggested: "This report was completed by Wang Yuan and Xu Liang. I think QQ Show can be left to them to take the lead, with the technical department cooperating."
"I think we can promote them, and you can decide how to arrange them."
After Lu Fei discussed the QQ show, he dived offline.
At this moment, Tang Danian called again, "You really don't want to play An Jiamu?"
"Nonsense, of course it's true, I don't have time."
Tang Danian asked: "Is there anyone you would like to recommend for audition starting tomorrow?"
Lu Fei took a sip of tea and a personal name came to his mind.
…………
I'm going to audition?
That night, in the dead of night, Deng Chao lay on the bed in the dormitory, staring at the ceiling with his eyes wide open.
"Hey, Chao'er, what's going on?"
Zhu Yuchen crossed her fingers and sat in front of the computer, "What did Director Xu tell you?"
"nothing."
Deng Chao turned over and stretched his head out of the bed, "What are you doing? The lights will be turned off in a few minutes."
"Robbing for books!"
Zhu Yuchen, staring at the page of Feigou.com, with 2 minutes left, started to buy "The Legend of Wukong".
"I heard that Gao Lu likes to watch it. Let's buy it and borrow flowers to offer to Buddha. Maybe we'll get along."
Deng Chao pouted, "Yuchen, don't you think it's not that you lack opportunities, but that you have no chance at all, and you and Gao Lu have no chance."
"Go, go, go, how will you know if you don't try, don't talk to me, the 30-second countdown is on."
Zhu Yuchen wiped her sweat with a tissue, her heart was in her throat. When she saw the time jump from "01" to "00", she immediately operated frantically and clicked to buy.
He had just managed to choose the payment method, EMS cash on delivery, credit card, wire transfer, or Caifubao, when suddenly the page froze.
500 copies were sold out in an instant.
“Damn it, they’re so popular, so fast!”
At this time, piercing screams also erupted in the corridor outside the house, and then, with a snap, the lights went out, and it instantly became pitch black.
Deng Chao bent his hands and rested his head on his arms. He still didn't understand, who recommended me?
After thinking wildly, Lu Fei's face suddenly appeared.
His whole body trembled and he shuddered. The image of him smoking backwards lingered in his mind. It was over and he was going to have insomnia again.
