Lee Hae-jin. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Li Haizhen, 46 years old this year, looks far younger than her actual age, with an ordinary appearance, an ordinary figure, ordinary clothes, regular hair, glasses, a somewhat big nose, and a gap when she laughs, which is easy to give people a good impression.

Such a person, walking on the streets of Seoul, is afraid that he will be drowned in the flow of people.

Who would have thought that he would be the founder and head of NHN, Korea's largest gateway group?

However, this is in line with the outside world's impression and positioning of him. On the contrary, a dazzling person like Park Ji-hoon will make people feel unreal, even unfair, and God will inevitably favor one person too much!

At this moment, the head of the NHN Group is using his mobile phone to browse Park Ji-hoon's information.

I've been watching it for a long time.

There was only one thought in my head - how bad this man must be!

In the past two days, Park Ji-hoon seems to have gathered all the attention of South Korea! A streaming website that may break the old pattern, the first costume movie he directed, the sky-defying income of "Lost Dragon", and the good deeds he has done silently in the past two years...... If South Korea is compared to a stage, then Park Ji-hoon is the one standing in the center in the past two days, all the lights are focused on him, and he is the only protagonist!

However, there are good and bad, and he alone has taken away almost all the aura, how can others agree? Reality is not a script, and no one is willing to play a supporting role.

After the "Central Daily" reported the financial statements of "Zhilong Maze" for the second quarter, some strange voices suddenly appeared on the Internet.

Park Ji-hoon is Korean, and "Wisdom of the Dragon" was developed in South Korea, but now "Wisdom of the Dragon" is contributing such a dazzling tax revenue to Japan.

As a result, some people began to call on the Internet for Park Ji-hoon to move "The Lost City of the Dragon" back to South Korea, otherwise boycott his voice.

Completely illogical statements. But it has formed a lot of force on the Internet.

This has nothing to do with Lee Hae-jin.

It was meant to be.

But. Park Ji-hoon just pulled him into the water!

It's like being in the same swimming pool. Everyone had fun, some had fun, some had a mess, and some choked...... There are all kinds of things. Some people can't get used to Park Ji-hoon, a latecomer, being so strong and squeezing his own territory, so he stumbles on this guy. Originally, he wanted to see how this admirable newcomer would deal with this crisis, but who expected that this guy would only symbolically resist a few times, and then hug himself!

The two had not crossed paths before.

But Park Ji-hoon hugged him unreasonably and insisted on pulling him into the water together.

How bad this guy has to be!

"It must have been the one he came up with personally, only he could have thought of such a convenient and labor-saving idea!" thought of a call from his old friend and competitor, Kim Fan-so. Li Haizhen couldn't help but grit her teeth again.

This is what it means to sit at home and bring disaster from the sky!

When people think of NHN Group, the first thing that comes to mind is Naver, Korea's No. 1 portal. However, at the beginning of this year, another name is getting more and more dazzling.

line！

This is an instant messenger developed by NHN Japan.

In June 2011, LINE was officially launched, in July 2012, LINE held its first "LINE World Congress", announcing 45 million users, and this year, the second conference, the number of users has grown to 230 million. And it topped the AppStore free app rankings in 41 countries!

LINE's results are extremely dazzling, and they are in no way inferior to the game "Lost in the Dragon".

Now. LINE sends 7 billion messages per day, sends 1 billion stickers per day, and TIMELINE has 73 million monthly active users...... As a member of the LINE family, LINEGAME has 190 million downloads today. In the past July, Linegame earned 2.6 billion yen.

In Japan, Linegame is the biggest competitor to Dragon's Maze.

After the July report came out, Linegame couldn't wait to announce that it had fully surpassed "Dragon Maze". Compared with the first half of the year, the revenue of "Wisdom Dragon Maze" decreased in July, of which Linegame "contributed a lot".

Ji Sang-hyuk and others are naturally unwilling to admit defeat, and while formulating new strategies and tapping their own advantages, they are engaged in a war of words with Linegame.

Since the beginning of 2013, "Dragon Maze" has become a giant in the Japanese mobile game industry, always ranking first in the revenue list, and its supremacy is unshakable! Once you step down from the altar, there will be many adverse effects, even if LineGame is a synthesis of 36 games, you have to show your own attitude.

Originally, the war of words between the two sides was called a lively one, but in the past two days, the attitude of the "Wisdom Dragon Maze" side suddenly changed and sang praises for linegame!

As if not to be outdone, the South Korean media also hyped LINE's results, which are much more detailed than the second quarter financial statements of "Wisdom Dragon".

However, LINE is a product of NHNJAPAN, which is exactly the same as "Dragon's Maze".

And, anyway, "Wisdom Dragon Maze" is just a mobile game, and from the data point of view, LINE is much more dazzling.

In this way, if the force that suddenly appeared on the Internet wants to target Park Ji-hoon, Lee Hae-jin will inevitably be involved. Lee Hae-jin believes that even if those people don't mean to target them, Park Ji-hoon will make them interesting.

Again, how bad this person must be!

However, I have to admire Park Ji-hoon's methods, and easily transfer the pressure to himself.

After shaking her head, Li Haizhen glanced at the time, finally closed the computer, and got up to go to the appointment.

and Kim Beom-so.

The two were friends of the same age and worked in the IT department of Samsung Group at the same time. Later, the two left the Samsung Group one after another, one founded the search website Naver, and the other founded the online game Hangame. Three years later, the two formed an alliance over a drink of soju in a bar. In 2001, Naver merged with Hangame to form a new company, NHN. Over the next six years, the duo expanded their business into search, gaming, and email, and their website became the country's version of Google in terms of number one visit.

However, Kim Beom-so is a person who is not willing to be lonely, and his life in NHN is too comfortable, so he decides to quit.

In 2010, modeled after WhatsApp, Kim Beom-so began to invest in the development of Kakaotalk, which became an instant hit in South Korea.

Soon, business giant Samsung and its old club NHN launched similar software. In 2011, Kakaotalk entered the Japanese market and managed to accumulate some fans, but it was "beaten back to the pre-liberation period overnight" because of the free call feature launched by LINE in October.

An old friend has become a competitor today.

In the past two years, the two have had little contact.

But because of Park Ji-hoon, the two sat together again. Not in a bar, but in a café.

It doesn't have much to do with the current matter, but I just want to sit down together and talk about Park Ji-hoon as a person. The two are 46 years old, and Park Ji-hoon is only 30 years old. In terms of career, Park Ji-hoon has not yet succeeded in the two, but in terms of personal wealth, after this year, Park Ji-hoon will definitely be above the two of himself.

"Speaking of which, Kakaotalk wanted to enter Japan at the beginning, but it failed because of the success of the line, and later Kakaogame wanted to develop overseas, but he set up a situation and delayed it for half a year. Jin Fanxiu said with emotion.

This "he" naturally refers to Park Ji-hoon.

"He's scheming?" asked with a smile on his face.

This is a formal competition in the business field, and there will be no resentment over it.

"It's not so much that he's scheming, it's that he has a great sense of the big picture. Jin Fanxiu said, "Short-sighted people only stare at a little in front of them, those who are powerful are staring at the space they are in, and no matter how powerful they are, they have a strong view of the overall situation and a long-term vision, but they are only fan-shaped, or circular with many intervals." He's different, his big-picture view is like a net, stretching everywhere!"

"Is there such an exaggeration?" Lee Hae-jin was surprised that this restless and high-spirited old friend actually spoke so highly of Park Ji-hoon.

"And that's not all. Jin Fanxiu shook his head and said, "Our people have specially done some research on him, and found that when he faces crises and chooses, he stands at a different height from ordinary people! ”

He also thought it was incredible!

But this is the case, and it can only be attributed to the gift given by God. There are always some people who are different from ordinary people.

Li Haizhen pondered the meaning of his words.

Jin Fanxiu didn't say anything more, drinking coffee while looking out the window.

I saw a display screen showing an advertisement for the N.E.W website.

Even he couldn't help but feel the urge to complain about "God's injustice" when facing Park Ji-hoon.

However, he greatly appreciated Park Ji-hoon's behavior of dragging Lee Hae-jin into the water.

Because this is the simplest, most labor-saving, and most effective way, it is quite wonderful.

As the largest gateway group in South Korea, NHN is more than capable of removing that voice from the internet. Originally, this argument was untenable, and it can be attributed to the behavior of anti fans and some extremist people. "JoongAng Daily" will only be a person who "hands the knife", and it is impossible to personally participate in it.

That's why Lee Hae-jin is in the mood to have coffee with him here.

"You know him well?" Li Haizhen suddenly asked after a while.

"It's not cooked. Jin Fanxiu paused slightly, retracted his gaze, and said.

Although Park Ji-hoon set up a game, Park Ji-hoon proposed to develop mobile games together, but they also left Park Ji-hoon alone. Although the two did not have a grudge because of this, the relationship was not very good.

"Can you introduce me to me?" asked Li Haizhen.

If you are dragged into the water for no reason, you will definitely not be happy. However, from another point of view, he still admires Park Ji-hoon's method.

Moreover, one is an instant messenger and the other is a mobile game company, and the competition between the two sides is not fierce.

"I'll try. Jin Fanxiu was stunned for a moment and nodded. (To be continued.) )
