Global monopoly of technology

Chapter 7 Looking at the old horse?

"Fuck!"

Early this morning, Xu Yong in the 407 dormitory woke up the sleeping Zhengxiang Luo Sheng with an exclamation, and immediately scolded him.

"You got caught in the door?"

Xu Yong ignored him, but stared at the background data and said excitedly: "The number of visits has reached 22,000, and the number of registered users has reached more than 6,000. Ma, this is the rhythm of the fire!"

Xu Yong was taken aback when he saw the background data. Don’t look at 22,000 visits and more than 6,000 users. This data is really not a big number, but the entire university has only more than 20,000 people. In just one week, More than a quarter of the students have registered a blue space account, the key is that there is basically no publicity.

This growth rate surprised Xu Yong, and Luo Sheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief. This heat shows that his judgment is completely correct, and the Facebook model is indeed feasible in the current domestic environment.

"Every refresh has a new user registration, which shows that B is very popular in the school." Xu Yong said excitedly.

Most of the students in the school have started to register for an account and actively provide their personal information such as name, address, hobbies and photos.The students in the school began to use the free platform of Community B to keep up with the latest news of friends, chat with friends, search for new friends and so on.

Luo Sheng also turned on his computer and entered the background program. He glanced at it and said: "According to this trend, more than 90% of the students in the school will join B in the next two weeks or so, and the number of user registrations will reach 20,000 So many, some of them are busy next."

Company B is a social network platform based on user relationships and sharing mechanisms. Users will share a lot of content on it, and data will skyrocket.

Luo Sheng: "You look at the website and continue to optimize it. Don't let the user surge and crash the website."

Xu Yong said immediately: "You need a server, or you will crash sooner or later."

Luo Sheng nodded: "The server must not be dragged. I must rent a server as soon as possible. I will solve this problem. It seems that we have to move, and if necessary, we will have to recruit some extra personnel."

The company's current capital is only 200,000 yuan, which seems to be a lot in this era, but Luo Sheng knows that the Internet industry will never spend this little money.

Renting a server will probably cost 800~1000 yuan, and it is impossible to stay in the dormitory all the time. You must rent a studio. At this stage, you don’t need too much space. About 100 square meters is enough, about 600 yuan. Qianyue, as long as Luo Sheng can accept a house under 1,000.

The money of this era is still very valuable so far.

The other is recruiting personnel. Now the two have no problems dealing with it, but Luo Sheng treats Bluestar Technology as a real business. It takes three steps to recruit personnel. Sooner or later.

In the current situation, it must be based on local materials. Finding a helper from the school can also save a lot of money. At the start-up stage of the company, every expenditure must be carefully calculated.

Luo Sheng finished explaining the matter, and left the school by himself to look for a house and server outside.

...

Pengcheng.

"Mr. Ma, are you looking for me?"

In the CEO office of the company headquarters, a man dressed in formal clothes knocked in. He was named Xu Chenghua, one of the co-founders of Tengxun, and he was very easy-going and had his own opinions but did not express his opinions easily. , The famous "Mr. Hao Hao", his biggest hobby is chatting with people, and his interests are varied.

Xiao Ma, sitting in the CEO's office, said seriously: "The company has a news from the Shanghai office that a new social networking site called BlueSpace.com has suddenly become popular at Fuda.

Hearing this, Xu Chenghua curiously said: "BlueSpace.com? A new social networking site. I have never heard of it. Is there anything special? It can actually arouse such great interest from Mr. Ma."

Xiao Ma nodded silently and said: "It's very special. It can be said to be the complete opposite of QQ, but it has achieved great success at Fuda. At present, the number of visits within the school has reached 22,000 or even higher."

Xu Chenghua couldn't help showing a surprised expression: "You said that there were 22,000 visits in Fu University alone?"

As the company’s senior management, he naturally knows the concept of 22,000 visits. The number is indeed not big, and it is not comparable to QQ, but QQ looks all over the country, and the blue space is only in a family of more than 20,000 people. The number of visits to the campus intranet in the university is incredible.

Mr. Ma said: "I only learned about the BlueSpace.com website today. They are commonly known as Community B, or B Community, or Blue Space. Only college students use this, but after learning about this website, it is really amazing. The above user actually put his mobile phone number, home address and other private information related to him on the B company, incredible!"

Xu Chenghua couldn't help being stunned for a moment.

Mr. Ma added: “This shows that B Club has gained the trust of users. This is a new type of social platform based on real names. In contrast to QQ, we are a social platform based on virtual reality. Another value of attention At the point, Blue Space was founded by a student in Fuda. They registered a startup company ten days ago, named Bluestar Technology."

"A young man born in the 1980s, with a very simple idea, succeeded in a simpler way, faster, and with less investment, at least in Fuda. If you can succeed in a university, it is very likely to succeed in other universities. You should be a little in awe of their achievements."

Xu Chenghua couldn't help but glance at this number, nodded, and said, "It makes sense."

Mr. Ma went on to say: "I have created Tengxun and have dominated the market in the field of instant messaging, but we are not successful. The company seems to have entered a period of stability and user growth has slowed down. Recently I am trying to find new developments in the future. Direction, blue space appeared."

Xu Chenghua thought about this for a moment and seemed to think of something. He looked at President Ma in amazement, and said quickly: "Mr. Ma, the core gene of the blue space is completely contrary to QQ, you shouldn't want it. ..."

Mr. Ma knew what he wanted to say, shook his head and said, “Of course I don’t think that QQ is on the wrong path just because I see the blue space suddenly appearing. A social platform based on a virtual foundation is promising. Never doubt."

Xu Chenghua eased up after hearing this. The company is actively preparing for the listing. At this time, if Mr. Ma suspects that the company is on the wrong path, or even wants to make a big turn, investors and company members will feel that He is crazy, and Tengxun's IPO plan next year will definitely cool down.

Mr. Ma went on to say: "I firmly believe that QQ is on the right path, but what I want to know is whether Blue Space, an Internet social network based on reality, is also on the right path. It runs counter to QQ. But how can you explain the fact that the blue space became popular almost overnight at Fuda?"

Xu Chenghua hesitated to speak but stopped, because he found this to be a confusing question, especially for Teng Xun.
