Chapter 1061 What Is a Brother

What a great idea, but Feng Yiping Music remembered that 58.com and Ganji.com seemed to have poor returns, or they had been losing money for a long time.

The main source of income for such classified information websites is naturally advertising. However, many of the people who post demand information on it are individuals, or a job advertisement of their own, or looking for a tutor for their children, or rental information, or other of second-hand items for sale….

In short, individuals who post this information are generally unwilling to pay for advertising.

Naturally, there are also companies that publish information on the website, such as recruitment, real estate agencies, and some service companies...

However, in terms of total volume, information published by individuals always accounts for the majority.

And later, various professional websites continued to emerge, such as professional real estate websites, recruitment websites, etc., and some large-scale real estate agency companies even established their own websites.

Therefore, their main dilemma should be that they have a very large amount of traffic, but they do not have a good means of monetization. Relying solely on the payment information of a small number of customers really cannot give good returns to shareholders.

Moreover, such classified information websites also need to use search, and if search is involved, there must be a ranking problem.

Naturally, paid information will be ranked first, and free information posted by individuals will definitely be at the bottom. This may lead to some bad experiences. For example, if you send a message, the result may be Can't even find it myself.

Or you just sent a message, and the website salesperson immediately called you. The subject was naturally only one, "Become our paid member."

If you get annoyed by being forced, you may end up having an unhappy relationship with the website salesperson on the phone, and then, is it possible that your information will disappear?

However, this idea is indeed a good idea. The question is to find a good way to monetize the traffic.

Feng Yiping thought for a while, and now, this doesn't seem to be a problem.

For example, the first thing that Xiao Zhijie and others think of is job hunting and recruitment. Although there have been some recruitment websites in China for a long time, there seems to be no successful ones. This should be a good direction.

The other is ticketing. Although there are also websites involved, they have not established an absolute advantage. This is also a direction.

Since it involves ticketing, it is naturally related to tourism and hotels. There are also opportunities for these now.

As long as you can make some achievements in one or two of these directions, the website can maintain itself, and then cooperate with other websites to drive traffic, you should be able to live a good life.

Therefore, in some fields, this first-mover advantage is something that latecomers cannot catch up with despite all their efforts.

Of course, what makes Feng Yiping the most happy are his two classmates. They have never been reborn, and they can now see such opportunities keenly. They had never had such an idea before.

In fact, the most critical reason why they can have such an idea is because of Feng Yiping.

Because of him, Xiao Zhijie and Wang Changning also opened their minds and not only dared to think, but also had the courage to do it.

Feng Yiping's influence and leadership are very important. In the original time and space, when the three of them went out to work after graduation, their families were still owed a lot of debt. They could only work their way up from the front lines of factories and shopping malls. How could they? Do you dare to think about such a high-end business as building a website?

If you have time to think about things, you might as well work overtime or take a nap!

To a certain extent, this reason that Feng Yiping has not yet figured out is another very gratifying change he has brought about after his rebirth.

…………

"It's a very good idea. Let's make a business plan first, and I'll invest in it," Feng Yiping said happily, patting them both on the shoulders.

"I'm going to call Silicon Valley right now and ask them about Craigslist." He looked at his watch. It was already past four o'clock and it was already midnight there. "I'll send them an email and they'll have specific information tomorrow. "

"Are you responsible for investment?"

"Brothers in the war, who do you support if you don't support me?" Feng Yiping said, "Besides, if you can't bear to let me work hard alone and don't come to help me, I have no choice but to come here to find you."

"Haha, in a few years, we will all be well-known figures in the domestic IT field,"

"Yiping, why don't we support you? It's just that we feel that if you just graduate from college and don't have much practical work experience, you will work in Huasheng. Not only will you not be able to help you, but you may also create trouble for you, so we thought of coming." The south is working hard and accumulating more experience," Wang Changning said.

"Understood, I understand,"

"There is also Yiping. Although we have thought of such an idea, with Changning and I's level, we really can't do such a thing," Xiao Zhijie said. "For the past few months, we have only been going to school at night. After taking several classes, I just understood what it was like to build a website, but I really didn’t understand the specific operation and how to make money.”

"So, what we are saying is, if you think this idea is really good, you should do it, we will study hard and try to contribute as much as possible,"

"That's what I mean," Wang Changning said. "We also know that to build a website now, you have to burn money first. If you really let us two take responsibility, it is very likely that we will keep burning money and nothing will be produced. The effect comes,"

"You are overthinking, and I don't understand it either? As long as we make a business plan, we can find knowledgeable people to do the work?" Feng Yiping said.

He really didn't want to take their ideas as his own.

"We knew you would say that," Wang Changning said, "Yiping, but not only do we not understand the technology, but we also don't understand how to run a website. We just have an idea, and we don't even know the business plan. Where to start,”

"Building a website like this requires an investment of tens of millions, at least. To put it bluntly, if you give us tens of millions now, we don't know how to spend it,"

"Yiping, if you want us to do it, it's not impossible, but it will take at least two years before we can have some confidence. However, after two years, other similar websites will be online long ago. Look, what do you think? This is a good idea, and we have the ability to operate this project now, why don't you take the lead and start it right away?" Xiao Zhijie said.

"In fact, the essence of any company is similar. The first thing is development. While developing well, it is enough to manage people and money well. It is no different from Zhichang," Feng Yiping said. "Now the group is familiar with this aspect. There are a lot of people. It is easy for us to form a team. You just need to grasp the general direction."

"We can't," they both shook their heads in unison.

"I really can't be sure. If you really push us two, then you will embarrass us. You don't understand anything. A layman leads an expert. It will definitely be a disaster. We definitely can't use your money to burn and play." Wang Changning said.

"That is, if you think this idea is good, then you can do it. If you don't do it, then we can just do the furniture leasing now. After a few years, if you think we can help, we can do it again. Go to the group to help you," Xiao Zhijie said.

Wu Qian, who was sitting in the passenger seat, had her eyes opened today.

Xiao Zhijie and Wang Changning can be said to be an entrepreneurial team. Their own boss can be said to be a venture capital. When faced with a good project, it is unheard of for an entrepreneurial team and a venture capital to put all their efforts into considering each other.

It seems that the relationship between the boss and his two classmates is really good!

"Don't belittle yourself like this. Look at the two people at Google who started their own businesses as soon as they graduated. Bill Gates also started his own business before he even graduated," Feng Yiping said.

"Yiping, don't say any more. We can't compare to Bill Gates or those two from Google. Moreover, they themselves are the core technology of the company. What about us? We can't even build a web page now. How can they be compared," Wang Changning said.

"Yiping, we have discussed it. If you think this idea is good, then you can start working on it right away. For both of us, you can arrange an internship at a website in the provincial capital or the capital." Xiao Zhijie really wanted to say that in Shanghai, that would at least I can see Fang Yingzhi often.

However, Auto.com is in the capital, Jiayuan.com is in the provincial capital, and currently in Shanghai. Jiasheng does not have website business. "As for Zhichang, if the furniture company is unwilling to take over, we will get rid of it,"

"In that case, let's arrange Zhichang first, and then you two will return to the provincial capital immediately to have an in-depth understanding of how Jiayuan.com operates. In addition, we will immediately form a technical team to carry out relevant preparations and research and development, okay?"

Feng Yiping also took a step back. What they said was indeed reasonable. It would actually be beneficial to them to do it themselves.

"It should have been like this a long time ago!" Xiao Zhijie clapped his hands, "Hey, how about going directly to Lan Kwai Fong?" He lowered his voice and said.

"Can't you just control yourself and skip dinner so early?" Wang Changning said.

It seems that this guy is also an experienced driver and knows that Lan Kwai Fong is not busy yet.

In front, the border crossing is in sight, and on the opposite side, there is another kind of prosperity.
