PT1.0 supports real-time chatting, sending messages and files on the Internet. In December 1995, it received the company's invention patent granted by the International Trademark and Patent Office (WIPO). Now it is popular in PN and GPN. No Internet user can register a free one. PT number gradually replaced Email.
ICQ only received the company's invention patent granted by WIPO in December 1997, a full two years later than PT1.0.
PT1.0 has been upgraded to PT4.0, which has more powerful functions. The mobile version of PT1.0 has been released on third-generation mobile phones.
When ICQ applied for the company's invention patent at WIPO, PENG, as the owner of the world's first instant messaging tool company's invention patent, represented PENG and went to the WIPO headquarters in Geneva to raise objections to ICQ. After carefully viewing and comparing the codes on the computer, Liu Xiaokun found that there were obvious traces of imitation, but the core was developed by the other party. After receiving instructions from Sun Jian, he allowed the other party to apply for the company's invention patent.
Only Sun Jian knew that in his previous life, ICQ, developed by four young Jewish people, was the world's first software that enabled rapid and direct communication on the Internet. QQ drew on ICQ's creativity and vision.
PT1.0 draws on QQ’s creativity and vision.
Sun Jian also wants to establish a strong competitor for PT, otherwise PT will not be able to make rapid progress.
In December last year, ICQ obtained the company's invention patent granted by WIPO, becoming the world's second instant messaging software used on the Internet. I heard that AOL was negotiating with Arik Vardi to fully acquire Mirabilis, mainly because of its interest in ICQ. chatting software.
"Mr. Sun, the company is developing an I-based instant messaging network tool, OICQ. The market prospect is very good, but it lacks funds for promotion."
Ma Huateng was a little shy in front of Sun Jian, not only because of his young age, but mainly because of the huge difference in status and wealth between the two parties.
Tencent's development of OICQ was influenced by PT4.0, but it did not dare to imitate PT4.0. After reading the ICQ code, it decided to learn from the other party's creativity and ideas.
"Mr. Ma is not worried about OICQ being developed and being accused of infringement by Mirabilis."
In the previous life, OICQ imitated ICQ and added a letter O in front of ICQ, which means openingIseekyou, which means "open ICQ".
"Mr. Sun, I promise not to infringe."
Ma Huateng saw the problem at a glance by Sun Jian, his cheeks were hot, and he was worried that the other party would give up financing, so he hurriedly promised.
Ma Huateng and Wang Zhidong did not think too much when they decided to start OICQ. In addition to the fact that this product can mutually promote the main business of Tencent, in addition to PENG, many domestic companies such as Feihua.com and China.com are also working on Internet instant messaging projects. , with the rapid increase in the number of domestic Internet users, the market prospects are broad.
"Mr. Ma, with all due respect, Tencent's current main business is about to be eliminated by the market, and the OICQ under development will also face infringement accusations. I am not particularly optimistic about Tencent's development prospects in the short term, but I am optimistic about Mr. Ma, Mr. Wang, and Taobao." The holding company is willing to spend US$1 million to hold 30% of Tencent’s equity.”
In a previous life, OICQ was taken to court by Mirabilis. The court ruled that Tencent had infringed the company. Tencent had to compensate, delete the plagiarized code, change its name to QQ, and settle the lawsuit.
Since PT1.0 was born, it has already occupied the domestic and foreign Internet instant messaging market. No matter how innovative QQ is, it is impossible to shake PT's leading position. Sun Jian would not invest 1 million US dollars, not for the sake of his previous boss Ma.
Even $1 million doesn’t just fall from the sky!
"Thank you, Mr. Sun, we are willing!"
Ma Huateng and Wang Zhidong were flattered to be favored by the world's richest man, and also admired Sun Jian's magnanimity. If they could get $1 million in real money, Tencent could quickly develop OICQ and seize the domestic Internet instant messaging market share.

"Mr. Sun, Zhang Chaoyang, the CEO of Sohu.com, wants to meet you. Mr. Zhang wants to use 30% of the equity of Sohu.com to raise US$2 million from Taobao Holdings."
On March 3, Sun Jian attended the opening ceremony of the political meeting in Beijing. While having lunch, his phone vibrated. He saw that it was the phone number of Chen Changmin, general manager of HTIC Investment Consulting (Beijing) Company, and had a premonition that another Internet company was approaching him for financing. , put down his job and went outside to answer the phone.
The company's senior executives all know that Mr. Sun is holding a political meeting in Beijing and will not disturb him during the meeting.
After Tencent received financing, it also followed the example of Alibaba e-commerce company and placed an advertisement on PN, which was equivalent to advertising for Taobao Holdings.
Sun Jian hopes to fund a few more domestic Internet companies, which will not only create good relationships, but also make a fortune. In time, these Internet companies will be the real high-tech companies in China and can rank high in the world's high-tech circles.
"Mr. Chen, tell Mr. Zhang to meet at the Zhongguancun headquarters of Taobao Electrical Appliance Group at 5:30 pm."
On the first day of the opening ceremony of the Tianzheng Conference, the agenda was full. Sun Jian was embarrassed to ask for leave from the leader. The opening ceremony was held on March 5th, and he had to rush back to Pengcheng on March 7th. On March 8th, he went to Dongxiang Ping got married and asked for two days off, but he would not talk about getting married. For a company CEO like him, the company is busy and it is impossible to sit here for two weeks of meetings. The opening and closing ceremonies will be attended, so it is common to ask for leave in the middle.
Sun Jian learned from the leader that he had been nominated as a member of the Political Standing Committee and would have to be voted on by the representatives.
"Okay, Mr. Sun!"

"Mr. Sun, I'm sorry to bother you!"
Zhang Chaoyang saw Sun Jian walking in and hurriedly stepped forward to greet him. The other party had been holding a meeting in the Great Hall for a day and had to rush here to receive him. He was a little touched that the other party could postpone seeing him for a few days.
Nowadays not everyone can see the hidden richest man in the world.
Zhang Chaoyang was very happy to be interviewed by Sun Jian. The company's financing is going well. Among domestic Internet websites, PN stands out, and Yinghaiwei, Sina, NetEase, Sohu, and Tencent have already emerged.
"Mr. Zhang, I kept you waiting."
Sun Jian did not eat the conference meal and rushed back to Zhongguancun by car. As soon as he entered the door, he recognized the lanky Zhang Chaoyang. In his previous life, he was the chairman, CEO and founder of China's largest portal website, Sohu Company. He was an undergraduate at Huaqing University in Massachusetts. PhD from MIT.
"Mr. Sun, I just arrived!"
On May 27, 1994, PN was born. Zhang Chaoyang, who was the liaison director of MIT Asia Pacific (China), also browsed PN for the first time. Although from the page design, PN looked like a replica of GPN, but A young person is better than an old man, and he added the Kunpeng game platform. The spring of the domestic Internet is coming, and business opportunities are endless. He immediately came up with the idea of returning to China to start a business.
In August 1995, Aitexin Electronic Technology Company (Beijing) Co., Ltd. was officially registered. On October 13, Zhang Chaoyang finally saw US$170,000 in his account. This was the first venture capital investment received by Atesin. Investors included Professor Negroponte of MIT and Edwards of MIT Sloan School of Management. ·Professor Robert.
