Global monopoly of technology

"In my opinion, Cheng Ye Xiao He defeated Xiao He, precisely because of the business model of'biding ranking', while bringing continuous sources of income to it, it will also bring countless criticisms to it in the future. Denying that this model is a bright spot in business, but the brand's reputation is overdrawn."

Luo Sheng said that he erased the "Inktodi" written on the whiteboard, put the whiteboard marker aside, found a place to sit down and looked around everyone, adding: "Whiteness is to choose to win in the present, but to lose the future. We do well. The decision to make Yunge lose for five years or more is to choose to lose in the present, but we win the future!"

In the next week or so, Luo Sheng was taking care of the company's operations, mainly about the company's entry into Sioux City. In addition, his main focus was on Yunge's search project department spending the most time.

With the joining of Yu Jun, new members were added in the following week, and the entire project development team expanded to 40 people.

Yu Jun discovered that he liked the engineer culture of Bluestar Technology more and more. Luo Sheng often came to the project team these days and found that this new boss not only has leadership that is different from ordinary people, but also a great technical master.

If you don’t know each other and sit together to communicate, Yu Jun will never think that he is the founder and CEO of a company valued at 5 billion, but a top engineer and creative master.

It was just too strong. Thinking of Luo Sheng's characteristics, Yu Jun immediately thought of Jobs. Isn't he also an extremely powerful and domineering person?

He also understands this kind of people very well. After all, this kind of person is considered a genius, and geniuses are generally unruly, and it is difficult to listen to others' opinions that are contrary to him, or simply refuse to listen.

After all, in their worldview, they would never think that they would make mistakes.

But Luo Sheng is also a very easy person to get along with. His strength is mainly reflected in the company's management and some decisions, nothing more.

After Yu Jun joined the company, he soon became one of the core builders of Yunge Search. The products he designed, even if they were as simple as a user interface, would use a lot of data and facts to explain the reasons for each setting. .

The argument came from his own long-term monitoring and analysis of various search engine data. He explained that during Baidu's work, he lived in the company with only a sleeping bag for a long time.

This sentence was said by Yu Jun on the second day after joining Bluestar Technology. Feng Yi and the others did not believe it, but now they do.

Joining Bluestar Technology for a week, Yu Jun has spent four days in the company with a sleeping bag. He loves data monitoring and analysis. Unlike many people who have a headache when seeing massive amounts of data, he is very obsessed.

When working at Baidu, the data that Yu Jun monitors and analyzes comes from search engines, and after joining Bluestar Technology, he also has a lot of data for him to analyze, that is, the hundreds of millions of users in Blue Space, and the data generated by it. The amount is also very scary.

...

"No, no, you can’t associate the advertisement with the user’s search results. The user experience is too bad. Change to another form of display and create a separate placement on the search results page to complete the display of the advertisement. Of course, this way Advertising monetization ability will be greatly reduced, but as long as the user experience is OK and everything is OK, once Yunge Search is online, there is no need to consider the issue of turning losses into profits for at least three years."

At this moment, Luo Sheng, Feng Yi, and Yu Jun were sitting together on the sofa in the lounge. Luo Sheng took a whiteboard the size of an LCD screen and a pen, and immediately drew a simple interface window on it. Then said:

"The content displayed in the advertisement and the actual page must be clearly distinguished, so that users can identify which are advertisements. By the way, the weight of the advertisement display is optimized by the two-line indicator of'keyword point price + advertisement quality' At this point, we can benchmark against Google, and we can’t get the highest impression and click logic just by bidding high."

The upcoming cloud song search, all of which is more from the perspective of the user side, to complete the search engine design.

In comparison, the rule of whiteness is extremely rough.

The first is to adopt the pure "biding position, the higher the price" standard, and to mix and match the advertising content and the content of the normal search results on the actual display results. Not only that, but also the advertiser's promotion content in the search The top few results.

This makes it difficult for users to distinguish between real search results and advertisements, and thus clicks on the advertisement page unintentionally, creating profits for the whiteness.

"If this is rolled out, the loss of Yunge Search is not a small amount, and the blue space has not considered the realization of the problem until now. It will not take a few months for the A round of financing to burn up." Yu Jun said After a while, he added jokingly:

"Speaking of speaking, three rounds of financing have been completed, angel round of 1 million, pre-A round of 77 million, and A round of 600 million. The company has only developed for 10 months. The ability to burn money is really exaggerated, but it makes me incredible. The VC is actually rushing to smash money."

Yu Jun was very moved, and he was curious how Luo Sheng let investors willingly give him a lot of banknotes to squander, and the VC money was not brought by the wind.

Luo Sheng wiped off the pattern on the whiteboard and looked at Yu Jun with a smile and said, "There is sunlight, soil, and various nutrients, but the most important thing for growth is to have a seed in the soil that can become a big tree in the sky. This One point, I have seen all the VCs I have invested in. The key is that VCs have enough appetite.

Yu Jun couldn't help but nodded with emotion. As the time of working together continued to extend, he knew more about Luo Sheng and became more and more convinced that he was with the right person. Although he was so young and too much, there was no communication. Obstacles, even occasionally gain a lot of experience.

It seems to understand why investors would be so willing to play Luosheng to throw money on him. Three rounds of financing were successfully realized in just ten months, and the amount of financing was getting bigger and bigger. None of the early investors withdrew early. No doubt he will not follow the vote.

It is undeniable that the development momentum of the blue space website is the main factor, but Yu Jun also firmly believes that the founder himself is definitely one of the main factors.

Such a person, as long as he understands it, no matter what he does, investors will not stingy to invest a sum of money in him and let him do it.

After chatting for a while, Yu Jun organized a few words in his mind for the idea he had been brewing for a long time and said: "Mr. Luo, I have recently analyzed the content shared by a large number of blue space users, especially for mutual attention. The content shared by users is analyzed and it is found that they all follow each other because of the same hobbies."

"Not only that, when I checked the search logs at my old club, I also found that many people were searching for the same keyword. Whether it was a search engine or a blue space social network, there was an amazing similarity."

When Yu Jun watched his involuntary gestures and touched his speech, he didn't notice that Luo Sheng suddenly smiled. This talent dug from Baidu has the title of "Father of Tieba", which is surprising. Outside is also reasonable.

At this time, Yu Jun looked at Luo Sheng, and let it go, and a simple and curious question was raised: "If you gather these people with common interests together, and communicate on common mood topics, wouldn’t it be possible? Contribute more information that is not on the page?"

Feng Yi subconsciously said, "Isn't this just BBS? Or Tianya forum?"

BSS is the abbreviation of English BulletinBoardSystem, which translates to "electronic bulletin board", but it is generally referred to as a network forum in China. It is the same in nature as the bulletin board on the streets and campuses, except that it is used to disseminate information through computers.

Yu Jun immediately said: "It can be classified as BBS, but it is different. The participant becomes every user. Any user can create an interest group on any keyword and write relevant information in it, and other people can also search The engine found them."

Feng Yi thought for a while without saying a word, and immediately slapped his legs and exclaimed: "Wonderful, I think this idea is very interesting, do you think Brother Yu is called?"

Yu Jun smiled and said: "I had this idea when I was with my old club. I was about to take some time to discuss it with Mr. Li. As a result, people from the headhunting company came to my door... Call Yungepost. kind?"

Luo Sheng immediately made a final decision: "That's it."
