Chapter 636: World War
Yang Huan had to admit that Qiu Zaifei's preparation was really done? When in place.
As a veteran football fan for more than 20 years, he has been involved in major football websites and forums on the Internet for more than ten years, and he understands the needs of today's mobile Internet fans better than anyone else.
And many of the ideas he put forward, although they were a little different from Yang Huan's previous ideas, were eye-catching.
For example, Yang Huan wanted to put the live broadcast of the game in it at the earliest, but Qiu Zaifei felt that it was not necessary.
"The live broadcast of the game consumes so much traffic, users generally rarely use their mobile phones to watch, even if they want to use their mobile phones to watch, the first choice must be professional video applications, fast speed, no lag, and good user experience."
"On the contrary, there are some short video programs such as game highlights and wonderful goals, I think users will choose to watch them in a wifi environment, when they have free fragments, or when they are browsing the news, so the latter is more necessary!"
After listening to his in-depth analysis, Yang Huan also felt that he made a lot of sense.
For the current WeChat company, every time a product is launched, there is no need to consider the problem of users at all, because the most important thing they lack is users, so Yang Huan and others discuss the most how to provide users with the best experience and retain high-level users.
In terms of originality, Yang Huan, Zhang Ning and Qiu Zaifei initially established a virtuous cycle route after discussion.
That is, to attract users with excellent experience and high-quality content resources, a good atmosphere and positive interaction between users, to give birth to more and better content resources, and then to attract more users.
In this virtuous cycle route, there are many key nodes to deal with, but Qiu Zaifei has obviously been prepared for this for a long time, and Zhang Ning and everyone present are the core backbone talents of WeChat Company, and their ability to think about and solve problems is extraordinary.
Often, as soon as a problem is raised here, there are people there, or even several people at the same time, who propose different solutions.
Finally, among the many solutions, find the most effective and reasonable.
As a result, the whole meeting went through this cycle of asking questions, solving problems, asking questions, and solving problems again.
Sometimes, they even fight over a certain issue.
But in the end, a consensus was reached.
Yang Huan's Emperor of the Ball project was finally led by Zhang Ninglai, and Qiu Zaifei served as the deputy leader of the project team.
This guy was suddenly promoted from a product manager to the deputy leader of the project team, especially the project proposed by Young Master Huan himself, and he immediately became a big celebrity in WeChat company.
It is said that many female employees of the company have turned this guy from the original garbage stock that no one cares about and even everyone avoids, and suddenly overnight, it has become a sparrow into a phoenix, and it has transformed into a potential stock with gratifying prospects.
Even a female colleague who had rejected Qiu Zaifei in person before found an opportunity to come over and talk to him.
As a result, this guy is also quite backbone, unceremoniously refused in person, and said something amazing.
"Yesterday you ignored my love, and today I told you to be unclimbable!"
Yang Huan didn't know anything about what was going on inside the domestic WeChat company.
During this period of time in the United States, he was basically busy socializing and dealing with people from all walks of life.
Including Wall Street!
Since the WeChat founded by Yang Huan became popular, in the past year, there have been endless rumors about the listing.
There were even a few times when Yang Huan deliberately took some opportunity to mention it vaguely.
As a result, almost every time he came to the United States, Wall Street bankers and investors were up.
One by one, they came running over, boasting, saying a lot of good things, and praising WeChat companies, and American newspapers and media also reported and paid attention to them.
As a result, WeChat's valuation is rising.
But what's worse is that it has been passed on for a year or two, but Yang Huan has always held on to it, let alone going public, and not even introducing venture capitalists, which also makes many people puzzled.
But Yang Huan has his own set of logic.
It's one thing to sell it or not, but whether anyone wants to buy it or not is another thing
A very important reason why WeChat did not introduce venture capital is that once venture capital is introduced, then as an investor, their first priority is to make money, so they have to cash out.
In other words, as long as there is an opportunity, they will do everything possible to force you to go public!
But now it's different, there are no venture capitalists, although the company's employees hold shares, but WeChat is still Yang Huan's word, whether to sell or not, no one can say that it doesn't count, he says it.
Yang Huan's current approach is, I'll take out the things for you to see first, do you want to buy them?
Buy? Okay, you guys bid!
What the? That's it? Ye is not happy, don't sell!
As a result, the bankers on Wall Street, the world's famous venture capital funds, and the major newspapers and media in the United States went home full of regret and disheartened, closed the door, and thoroughly reflected on what caused Uncle Yang Huan to suddenly not sell.
Often, the final conclusion is that the valuation is not high enough!
Just kidding, WeChat is now the leader in the field of mobile instant messaging, and the global user base is so amazing, even if the game company is independent, there are still such popular applications under its command, as well as virtual reality and augmented reality.
In addition, in the past year, WeChat has entered the artificial intelligence and robotics industry in a big way, and has also achieved quite outstanding results.
If such a company doesn't give a high valuation, to whom?
As a result, every time there was news that WeChat was going public, the company's valuation soared.
"Young Master Huan, it is estimated that it should be about the same!"
Walking out of the door of a top hotel in Manhattan, New York, and sitting in the back compartment of the Aston Martin Lagonda Conqueror driven by the driver, Zhao Yuanfang said to Yang Huan with a smile.
Just now, they met with a delegation from one of the world's leading banks and had an in-depth conversation.
From the current point of view, the valuation of WeChat in the U.S. market is generally around $200 billion.
And that's after the divestment of game companies, burn-after-the-book, and businesses such as the WeChat Research Institute in China.
That's already quite a scary statistic!
Yang Huan also smiled and nodded: "Well, it's almost!" ”
The Internet industry is changing very fast, maybe you are the hottest software application today, but next year, you will decline, and even the year after tomorrow, no one will dump you at all.
Of course, relatively speaking, WeChat is now relatively stable, but the growth rate of the number of users has also declined.
In this case, if the world's media can advertise for WeChat for free with a very media news effect, then the number of WeChat users will explode.
Outside of China, it is no longer impossible for users to exceed one billion, reach 1.5 billion, or even 2 billion!
By that time, WeChat will become a global unified mobile instant messaging platform!
has really come to that point, who else can easily shake the status of WeChat?
Didn't those bankers and investors just see this prospect, so they ran over one by one, even if they were rejected again and again, but they were still waiting for WeChat to go public?
Why is Google so good?
Is it just because of their search engine?
Or is it because of their Android?
Or is it a bunch of black technology that sounds good but isn't practical at all?
Obviously neither!
The best thing about Google is that the company collects information and data from users in all aspects through a variety of software, applications, and channels.
As we all know, almost everyone agrees that the next few years will be the advent of the era of big data.
In other words, the user's effective data will become the most valuable resource for major companies in the future.
Think about it, what could be more effective and comprehensive than the user data mastered by a mobile instant messaging platform?
In other words, no matter from which field it is viewed, the time for WeChat to go public is already ripe.
"Yuan Fang, in the next few years, the world war of the Internet is coming!"
Zhao Yuanfang listened to Young Master Huan's words, and his face was also solemn, even a little panicked, and a little excited.
China's Internet has always been outside the world's Internet, but this situation will not last long.
More and more Chinese Internet companies are not only satisfied with their domestic affairs, but also begin to want to go abroad and develop to the world.
For big companies including Google, Microsoft, Apple, Facebook and Twitter, the sudden emergence of China's Internet giants, which have a user base of hundreds of millions at every turn, is bound to break the original power structure, which will worry and even frighten them.
This is because the Chinese Internet giants cultivated and trained by more than one billion users may be inferior in terms of technological strength and innovation ability, but in many other aspects, they are better than those Internet giants in the United States.
For example, the current game mode.
Free props, which has been tired of playing in China, has quickly swept the world in recent years.
As for technology and innovation, this never guarantees victory!
Therefore, more and more people in the industry are full of expectations for the next few years when Chinese Internet giants will go abroad, and at the same time, they are also full of anxiety and anxiety about the upcoming Internet world war.
But in Yang Huan's opinion, he was more excited and excited.
"When the world war comes, the user resources we currently have in our hands will become the ultimate killer that both sides are eager to fight for!"
When Yang Huan said this, a trace of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes.
"I hope to see the day when our Chinese Internet companies will dominate the world's Internet!"
Zhao Yuanfang was also enthusiastic when he heard it, why didn't he want to see this day?
As long as he can wait for that day, as long as he thinks that he can contribute to the arrival of that day, his whole body is excited and full of strength!
"Let's go, let's eat and celebrate!"
Yang happily patted Zhao Yuanfang's shoulder and said with high morale.
Go public in the United States, use American money, strengthen your own strength, and then help your compatriots to kill American companies.
It's a fucking cool feeling!
But on the way to leave the hotel, Yang Huan suddenly received a call from the United Kingdom.
Ron Gurley, the chief operating officer of Southampton who stayed in the UK, told Yang Huan that Kaka's agent, Gatano Paulilo, called the club and offered to join Southampton and gave the player specific requirements.
"You tell him we'll get back to Southampton!"
Yang Huan hung up the phone, looked out the car window, and couldn't help laughing.
Kaka, the world's number one superstar in the past, is now coming to Southampton to start from scratch!
This made Yang Huan feel proud and proud, but also full of expectations.
It is obviously impossible for the Brazilian to get back to his peak form, after all, he is thirty-one years old.
But in the end, it is a matter of great anticipation whether the former top superstar, the advertising effect he brings, and how much his transformation on the pitch can bring to the team.
I'm very optimistic about you, Kaka!
Don't let me down!
Yang Huan thought with a smile on the corner of his mouth!
