Chapter Five Hundred and Thirty-Four: Five Thousand One Hundred and Seventy-Three Network's New Business

New Year's resolutions for 2004 were, of course, a joke.

However, it is a joke, but 2004 was a crucial year for Huanyu Technology.

This year, Huanyu Technology produced several core businesses.

There is instant messaging, there is portal, there is search, and there is also mobile phone.

Although it has expanded a lot from the overall business scope, it has the shadow of a giant.

But to be honest, Chen Yu, who was used to seeing the sudden collapse of a series of giants in his previous life, has always been walking on thin ice.

The temporary Huanyu Technology just looks OK from the outside.

But to say that it is truly invincible, it is far from being achieved.

Whether it is instant messaging, search engines, portal websites, or mobile phone business, Universal Technology has strong competitors. Not to mention the game business, but Blizzard is eyeing it.

After the New Year's Lantern Festival, major domestic companies are basically on the right track.

All employees of Universal Technology also rushed back from all over the country.

Chen Yu summoned a group of company executives and held a New Year's meeting.

Not the same as the meeting in late 2003.

The year-end meeting in 2003 was more of a year-end summary.

2004 is an outlook for that year and the future.

"Everyone is here, sit down."

Enter the meeting room.

Chen Yu looked at each high-level person in charge.

Every time his eyes met, Chen Yu nodded in greeting.

Later, Chen Yu continued: "Last year, everyone did a good job. Although some businesses did not meet our ideal situation, the overall situation was generally good. This year is the most critical year for our Huanyu Technology. Whether we can make further progress depends on this year. We've got it going. So, I'd love to hear what you guys think this year."

After speaking, Chen Yu looked at Xie Zhang: "Let's start with the first company established by our Huanyu Technology, Xie Zhang, you are the first."

It turned out that Xie Zhang was in charge of the planning department before.

It is planned for each company.

However, as each subsidiary becomes larger and the industry becomes more and more subdivided, a separate planning department cannot bring development to the company very well. Later, Chen Yu reorganized the entire company and regarded each department as a subsidiary. The head of each department is equivalent to the CEO of the subsidiary.

Xie Zhang was also adjusted from the former head of the planning department to the head of 5173.com.

As for Zhang Jianming, who was in charge of 5173, he was directly promoted to vice president.

"Mr. Chen, I'm the first to speak. I'm a little nervous."

Xie Zhang stood up and said with some pressure.

"Why are you nervous?"

Chen Yu asked with a smile.

"Of course I'm nervous."

"Look, I have the lowest education here, and the entire website makes the least money. I'm the first to speak, and I'm a little embarrassed."

"Whoever said that he made more money has to be the first to speak. Besides, the 5173 website you are in charge of may not necessarily make money."

Chen Yu knew that Xie Zhang had a flexible brain.

When planning before, it was full of crooked ideas.

When 5173 was able to do it, Xie Zhang made a lot of contributions.

However, although Xie Zhang is in charge of the planning department, he is only planning and has little power over the company's decision-making.

Now handing over all 5173 to Xie Zhang alone gives him a chance.

Last year, Chen Yu heard that this guy wanted to show off his skills in the New Year.

Taking advantage of this meeting, Chen Yu also wanted to hear what big moves Xie Zhang has made this year.

"Since you have said so, Mr. Chen, then I will say it directly."

Xie Zhang cleared his throat and said, "We have many plans for 5173 this year. First, we will adjust the advertising price with our partners."

"How much to adjust?"

"A 30% increase from the original."

"Mr. Xie, this is too much."

Zou Tao was the first to respond.

As the game department of Huanyu Technology, although the 5173 network and the game department are both owned by Huanyu Technology.

But the brothers clearly settle accounts.

With the increase of the company's business, the game department of Huanyu Technology also has to pay advertising fees to 5173.

There are quite a few games managed by Zou Tao, but the adjustment of advertising fees this time has increased a considerable amount of expenses.

"Mr. Zou, what is there? Compared to the money you make, we are less."

Xie Zhang did not think there was anything wrong with this adjustment.

Although online games are not as easy to do as in previous years, they are also the most profitable Internet projects.

Moreover, domestic online game users are still growing at an annual rate of more than 40%.

Adjusting advertising costs is all too normal.

"Mr. Chen, what do you think?"

After Xie Zhang finished speaking, he looked at Chen Yu.

Chen Yu also nodded: "It's normal to adjust the advertising fee, I think it's OK."

"Mr. Zou, look."

"Mr. Xie, I understand, you are taking the order of President Chen to blackmail us."

After Chen Yu said this, Zou Tao naturally had nothing to say.

Of course, Zou Tao was just talking.

Although he has some opinions, he also understands the truth.

As a game portal, 5173 has too many resources, and it is normal to increase advertising fees.

Not long, this rise is not normal.

If 5173 is not owned by Huanyu Technology, if he wants to increase advertising fees, you can only keep up.

"However, Xie Zhang, you still can't make much money with such an increase in advertising fees."

In fact, 5173 is already very profitable.

Compared with some other websites, 5173's earning efforts have made some portals jealous.

It's just that Huanyu Technology has too many money-making projects, and 5173 seems inconspicuous.

In particular, the e-commerce segment was separated from 5173 and established Huanyu Mall, and the status of 5173 in Huanyu Technology has declined even more.

"Mr. Chen, I have a second plan."

It seems that Chen Yu would ask this question for a long time, Xie Zhang said: "As a game portal, our task before was to advertise to major game companies. Of course, the most important thing is to promote our own games. Although we will also be the first Time to promote our game, but I thought about it and I think we can make our own game too.”

"Do your own games?"

The idea was beyond everyone's surprise.

Huanyu Technology already has a game department, and 5173 even wants to engage in games.

Isn't this reusing resources?

However, just for a while, everyone admired it again.

Huanyu Technology has a horse racing tradition, whoever does well will go on.

Although 5173 is only a game portal, why can't they make games?

If 5173 can also launch a good game, this will not only increase the profit of 5173, but also enable an internal competition with the game department of Universal Technology.

This also has a significant effect on enhancing the company's core competitiveness.

Therefore, as soon as Xie Zhang said he wanted to make a game, Chen Yu nodded: "I agree."

"Xie Zhang, do it well and have a pk with Zou Tao."

5173 Playing games is not duplicating resources, but not doing them is a waste of resources.

With 5173's status as the number one game portal in China, he can take the opportunity to enter the game field.

If the entry of 5173 into the game is really done by Xie Zhang, then Huanyu Technology has an additional ammunition pack for the rear transport of resources.

If this is too much money, if there is no way to deal with others in the future, then throwing money will kill them.
