Chapter 1017: Another Global Platform: Weibo

"Wang Chang, how is our friend network?"

"At present, it has entered 50 countries and regions in the world, and it has become the first in the world in terms of IP traffic."

"Good. What about media influence?"

"We are relatively weak in this area. Our friend network is positioned as a social networking site. His main focus is social networking. In terms of media influence, it is still inferior to the old portal sites."

A phone call, Chen Yu called Wang Chang, who was far away in the United States.

The purpose of calling Wang Chang is not to put pressure on Microsoft and Intel in terms of public opinion immediately.

As Chen Yu said just now, although Chen Yu owns two global media websites, Friends.com and Huanyu Video.

But one is social, the other is video, and the influence of the two major websites on the mainstream market is relatively weak.

However, Chen Yu has his own plans.

"Okay, I'll go to the United States in a few days."

"Mr. Chen, are you coming to the United States?"

"Yes, I have a new idea to discuss with you about building a new media platform."

"Portal?"

"no."

Chen Yu shook his head: "The style of the portal website is too simple. Although it is possible to make a portal website, it is more difficult to do, and it is also very expensive and annoying. Moreover, it is not something that can be done in a short time to be recognized by the mainstream public. .I have a new mode, I believe you must be very interested."

"The new model, Mr. Chen, reveal a little bit. You made my heart skip a beat."

"It's okay to reveal, it's almost the same as the [Shuo] in the friends network. You can think about it first and see if we can make an improvement on the talk and turn it into a powerful media platform."

After hanging up the phone, Chen Yu made plans to go to the United States in China.

This time to the United States, Chen Yu not only has a new idea, he also has to unite with a number of Microsoft and Intel competitors.

Such as AMD.

The media broke out that the Intel dual-core processor,

It's not just Huanyu Technology that is worried.

More worrying than that of Huanyu Technology is AMD, Intel's most direct competitor.

As another major processor giant, Intel is the life and death enemy of AMD.

At this time, the dual-core processor that Intel burst out, obviously amd can't sit still.

Likewise, there is Google.

The Microsoft Vista system also affects not only the Universal system, but also has a huge impact on Google.

Brand new vista, he has already begun to lay out the search engine.

Obviously, this is not what Google wants to see.

Similarly, the new vista is also preparing to launch their anti-virus software and firewall, which is also a big challenge for other global security vendors.

Before joining a group of competitors to deal with Microsoft, at this time, it is completely possible to join forces again.

However, in order to join forces, the previous strategy is obviously too simple.

In order to create momentum in mainstream public opinion, Chen Yu must create a new platform.

Of course, this new platform is not only for dealing with Intel and Microsoft, but also for Huanyu Technology.

After sorting out a lot of information, Chen Yu took Zhang Jianming to the United States.

...

"My God, Wang Chang, you can do it here, it's bigger than the headquarters."

When Wang Chang brought Chen Yu and Zhang Jianming to the headquarters of Friends.com, Zhang Jianming said in amazement: "I see when you will buy the headquarters."

"Haha, Brother Jian, at the current valuation of Friends.com, it is almost possible to acquire Huanyu Technology."

Chen Yu also said jokingly: "Also, Huanyu Technology headquarters still owes friends online money."

"Mr. Chen, don't laugh at me. No matter how the friend network develops, it is still a subsidiary of Universal Technology. Two bosses, please sit down."

"Wang Chang, he has become more talkative when he arrives in the United States."

"I'm not familiar with this place, and I'm also forced. By the way, the hotel has been booked, so you should get rid of the jet lag first."

"Not for now."

Chen Yu shook his head: "I'm not tired, let's talk about business. Wang Chang, how are you thinking, do you have any clues about my new idea?"

"Mr. Chen, you all came from Mars. How can I keep up with your rhythm? I've been thinking about it for a few days, and even called several high-level meetings, but I didn't have any particularly good ideas."

In Wang Chang's eyes, isn't the talk on the friend's network just to express personal feelings, post pictures, etc.?

Such a simple thing, he wants to build a new media platform, but also a mainstream media platform?

is it possible?

"The main reason is that your thoughts are suddenly restricted. If you open up your thoughts, maybe you will think of it."

Chen Yu spread his hands.

However, he also knows that it is really hard for others to think about something as creative as this.

If you want this kind of thing, you can think of it, and if you can't think of it, you can't think of it for a lifetime.

Although such a thing is very simple, if you have a look, you will find that you can also think of it.

But before he appears, if you think about it, you are a genius.

"Well, let me give you a hint, Brother Jian, think about it too."

Having said that, Chen Yu turned on the computer, entered the friend network, and then found the talk interface of the friend network.

This is actually similar to the talk interface of YY Space.

"Wang Chang, the original idea of ​​our talk was to send users various moods and share pictures, right?"

"Yes, Mr. Chen, our words are still used by many people."

"Yes, it is indeed still used by many people, and it is even one of the most popular functions. However, most of the user's comments are not very targeted, some are sending today's mood, some are complaining about life, and some are saying It's work. Although, it's true that we guide him, but he is more about himself, and he doesn't have much to do with our society."

"Mr. Chen, do you want the users of Friends.com to comment on current affairs?"

"Yes, savvy."

Chen Yu praised: "Of course it's not just about current affairs, he can post anything, but current affairs can also be involved in many aspects."

"Then will this be something like a blog?"

After thinking about it, Wang Chang said again.

"When you talk about blogs, it's really similar to blogs."

I have to say that Wang Chang's savvy is really too high, and Chen Yu just thought of a blog as soon as he reminded him.

This is not what ordinary people can imagine.

"Mr. Chen, I seem to understand. Are you planning to start a blog and enter the mainstream media?"

"No no no."

Chen Yu shook his head: "Although blogs have some influence, blogs are actually a bit niche."

"Mr. Chen, blogs are already very popular."

"Yes, do you like to blog?"

"Well, I don't like it, but I read other people's blogs."

"That's right. Even you, an Internet practitioner, don't post blogs. Do you think others will post blogs? Although the general public knows blogs, most of them are just like you. Can’t blog. A blog that everyone doesn’t participate in, is this called the public?”

"It seems so."

"Mr. Chen, what do you mean?"

"We continue to analyze blogs, Wang Chang, think about it, why is everyone's participation in blogs so low?"

"There are many reasons for this, after all, not everyone enjoys writing online."

"That said, but I think there's something wrong with the format of the blog."

Chen Yu continued to analyze and said: "People will know that blogging is something like a long article. If you want to publish a blog, you have to write an article. And you have to write it well, and it is embarrassing to send it out. So , which sets up a huge barrier to blogging. It basically excludes ordinary people, because not many ordinary people blog well.”

"But Mr. Chen, the form of blogging is like this. He relies on blog posts, that is, articles to impress others."

Zhang Jianming on the side also said.

Although Zhang Jianming is not in charge of blogging, blogging is also one of the businesses under his management, and he naturally knows it.

"Then what if we change it?"

"Mr. Chen, how to change it?"

"We changed it to the same as talking, and only posted a short-sentence-like blog post."

"Mr. Chen, this..."

Wang Chang was a little embarrassed: "Then what's the difference between this and [talk]?"

"Of course there are differences. I didn't mean to let everyone participate more in current affairs. For example, if we discuss more current affairs, the more people we discuss, the greater our influence will be."

"But it's purely a one-sentence model. He is not as attractive as Bowen, and our influence cannot be exerted."

"who said it."

Chen Yu shook his head.

Then he went on to say: "Good blog posts can indeed exert more influence, but as I said before, blog posts have great flaws, and not everyone likes to write blog posts. Does a pure sentence have any influence? Look at it. It's not this sentence, but who said it. For example, Wang Chang, you said at this time that VIP is free for 3 months on Friends.com, you say, how influential is your sentence?"

"This?"

A sudden innovation gave Wang Chang a sudden flash of inspiration.

Just now Wang Chang felt that what he was discussing with Chen Yu was a blog, a talk, but in the next sentence, she found out that a new product really appeared.

"Did you find something to watch? Just follow what I said just now, if Wang Chang, you say that the VIP of friends.com is free for 3 months, your words not only have great influence, but at the same time, your words also It will rush to the hot search and become a current event. Not only that, there are not only you Wang Chang in this world, but also some other people. For example, Apple's Steve Jobs came to us to say a word, Buffett came to us to say a word, Kobe Bryant Come to us to say a word, the president of the United States comes to us to say a word... Do you think our platform has no influence yet?"

"Mr. Chen, I seem to understand what you are thinking."

"How about it, do you want to do it?"

"Think, I want to get him out now. By the way, what's the name of our platform?"

"Our platform is very similar to a blog, but he is not a blog. We can call him a micro blog, just call him Weibo."

Yes.

The platform that Chen Yu wants to create is the Weibo of later generations.
