Chapter 696: Having the Guts to Make Money

QQ is officially launched!

When it went online, it only advertised on the home page of the Kyushu portal.

Subsequently, more than 10,000 people signed up on the first day.

There is no way, the websites that can be browsed on the Internet are too limited at present, there is only one portal website, Jiuzhou Portal.

In this regard, there is no competitive pressure at all.

With 50,000 cable modems coming online, there are currently 60,000 modems on the market, which means there are 60,000 registered users.

Most of these are owned by universities and companies, and these have anywhere from dozens to as many as one university with thousands or even tens of thousands of different account logins.

The cumulative number of logins per day currently exceeds 100,000.

Therefore, on the first day, more than 10,000 people registered for QQ.

This is so meaningful to all students.

Before this, if you want to find someone, how can you find him?

In this era, mobile phones are too expensive. The cheap ones cost more than a thousand, and the expensive ones cost several thousand. This is something that most people cannot afford.

Of course, there is also a call machine. However, call machines are not affordable for everyone. After all, the price is not cheap either. A digital machine costs several hundred yuan. Even if it’s just calling you, you still have to find a place to make the call.

This is also inconvenient.

Before this, when surfing the Internet, I could only send emails. But you don’t always remember to check emails, and the timeliness of communication is too slow.

Especially when two people want to discuss a problem online, although there are chat rooms and private chat rooms can be opened, the messages sent cannot be saved.

Moreover, there are sometimes too many people in the chat room, and it is not easy to find out whether the other party is there.

This QQ is different. You can leave messages for others at any time, and there is no need for any interference when two people chat. This is very convenient.

Just like that, the chat room on the campus network became quiet.

After all, who would use a chat room now that we have QQ? It’s inconvenient not to mention, there are too many people and it’s too noisy. Not as convenient as QQ.

Of course, there is also an inconvenience, that is, they cannot chat with each other in groups. Only one-on-one. Of course, for now, no one cares about group chats. Just one on one!

Every day, the number of QQ registrations is increasing.

Of course, this also put a lot of financial pressure on Jiang Yong.

Because until now, their company has not made any money.

There is a fee for the campus network, but it is mainly used to pay wages. Per se, they don't make money. But related servers, R&D personnel, etc., all require investment.

In particular, there are servers, and the daily electricity bill is huge.

Before this, all servers were built on campus, so except for the money to provide the servers, all other costs were borne by the school.

This is a one-time investment.

But nowadays, QQ servers cannot be placed in schools. Because I'm afraid it won't be safe.

This must be placed in the company. As the number of people surfing the Internet increases and the use of QQ increases, they have now added 5 servers, and depending on the pace, more servers will be provided in the future.

If you calculate this, the electricity bill for this day is quite large.

Of course, the company is still losing money. After all, when the company was established, it obtained 60 million in funds from game companies. 60 million is too much these days, enough to burn for a while.

However, it is not a problem if it continues like this.

"Don't worry! There will be ways to make money!" Qin Feng smiled.

"How to make money?" Jiang Yong asked urgently.

"It's very simple. When the number of people increases, we will collect members. But it is not mandatory, but voluntary. Online charging must be cautious and must be voluntary." Qin Feng said.

"Voluntary? Is there anyone willing to pay?" Jiang Yong frowned.

Will anyone be willing to spend money on this?

"Yes!" Qin Feng smiled, "Have you forgotten the evil nature of human nature? Comparison! Especially we Chinese people prefer comparison!"

"Comparison?" Jiang Yong was curious.

"Yes, as long as the members are given superior qualifications and uniqueness, there will naturally be people who don't have a little money to spend to become members. Moreover, we can provide more services to members. Then there will be no worries. No more money." Qin Feng said.

Qin Feng will do this better than Brother Ma. Since we collect money, we will definitely provide people with more benefits and services.

"How much will it cost?" Jiang Yong asked.

"10 yuan a month cannot be less." Qin Feng said, "As long as there are enough people, you can still make a profit. Of course, the real profit point is not here. As long as there are enough people, there are enough ways to make a profit!"

Before this, Penguin's main profit point was games, but Qin Feng would not put its main profit point in games.

With such a huge market of customers, but you only focus on making money from games, it can only be said that the company is too incompetent. Corporate planning is all about shit.

In other words, they are all lazy politics.

No matter how profitable games are, as a company with a huge market of customers, it cannot just make games. That would be too incompetent.

Qin Feng is preparing to develop in many aspects. Therefore, this is the reason why Qin Feng split the company into three.

Concentration! Those who make games focus on making games, and those who provide hardware focus on making hardware. Those who do network services should focus on network services, perform their own duties, and then seek common progress. Instead, just play games with each other.

In the future, several major portals, as well as the so-called BTA giants, will ultimately rely on e-commerce to make money, Baidu will rely on selling fake medicines, and the rest will rely on games to survive.

This is so underhanded. There is no backbone or pursuit of an Internet enterprise giant. Look at Google and Facebook, they are real IT giants.

Qin Feng will not be so mean to make money. Qin Feng will really stand up and raise his head to make money. It is natural and reasonable to make money.

"How long will it take to launch the membership system?" Jiang Yong asked.

"Not this year, next year! Next year we will launch a membership system!" Qin Fengxiao said, "We have to cultivate customers this year, otherwise it won't work if we are too anxious!"

In the blink of an eye, summer vacation is here.

During this period, Fujien also kept its promise and provided the goods for the second month, exceeding the previous commitment of 80,000 orders and reaching 100,000.

Of course, this is also due to the current domestic market demand for cable modems.

When QQ was launched, everyone discovered the benefits of the Internet. This is no longer just surfing the Internet and reading news before, but real-time communication and communication. Especially in this era of underdeveloped communications, the launch of QQ is epoch-making!

Especially for many companies, this is very important. This is much clearer than what can be said on the phone. Text must be more communicative and timely.
