Chapter 1074 The Future of Portal Websites

After Yang Dongxu finished speaking, everyone present fell into deep thought, thinking about what he meant by saying this.

Originally, Lin Wei's first reaction was that Yang Dongxu was showing off himself and using this method to please the higher-ups. But she quickly denied this guess.

After all, pleasing the higher-ups is to gain greater benefits, but driving away players is undoubtedly putting the cart before the horse. After all, no matter how much the higher-ups support you, you can't order netizens to play your game, right?

What's more, there are many different voices on the game industry, and there is still debate without a clear statement. How can you openly support and encourage a game company?

Seeing that Yang Dongxu seemed to be really ready to do this instead of throwing a smoke bomb, she had to ponder whether there was something she didn't see. After all, Yang Dongxu didn't seem to be hot-headed, and he wasn't so confused that he knew the foundation.

"It is indeed a good idea to restrict the game time of minors." While Lin Wei was still thinking, Boss Zhang said, "But will this affect the number of game players?"

This question is not very straightforward, but it is undoubtedly what everyone wants to know.

"There is definitely an impact, but according to the average age of netizens in the country, this impact is not very big. And the current game market is a good way to say it, but it is a bit eager for quick success.

There are even some bad tendencies in the game, so taking the initiative to rectify can still seize the opportunity. Waiting for the top to knock and rectify will be a big trouble." Yang Dongxu said with a smile.

It looks very relaxed, as if he really doesn't care about the loss of some players.

Really not?

He must care a little, after all, the loss of players is equal to the loss of money. As a businessman, he is not a saintly bitch, so he naturally has to consider how to make more money.

But this step must be taken, and it is better to leave early than late, and it can also leave a good impression on the top. And it can consolidate the position of Sunrise Technology in the industry and its reputation in society.

Of course, what is more important is that if his company does this, then this measure will cause the loss of players, which will definitely benefit other game companies. It is not certain that he will even overthrow Sunrise Technology and become the boss himself.

But Yang Dongxu knew that although he had invented the anti-addiction system, as long as it was implemented, it would definitely be stipulated that all game companies should do so. This could be regarded as a kind of appeasement to the increasingly sharp contradictions in society towards online games.

So everyone suffered losses together, and the position of the leader of Xuri Technology would still be stable. It was still worthwhile to lose some money to gain such a good proof image.

As for whether his peers from other game companies would curse him, that was not a problem he considered. His peers were enemies, and he was very kind not to sell them to death.

"Then I wonder what Boss Yang thinks of portal websites?" Boss Zhang saw the meaningful smile on Yang Dongxu's lips and did not ask further, but turned to the industry he was in.

Although Yang Dongxu was professional in making games, he had a 361 browser company in his hands. Boss Zhang had actually thought about the free browser before.

After all, as one of the important diversion ports of portal websites, if he could get a browser with a relatively high market share, it would undoubtedly be a great help.

Unfortunately, when she was more thoughtful, 361 emerged and aggressively swallowed up 123. Then, in less than a year, it formed a nationwide computer coverage in the stunned eyes of everyone in the industry.

Now almost 95% of computer users have installed 361 browsers, and some of the remaining 5% still have Intel browsers built into their computer systems, which directly blocked the growth space of other browsers.

"Society is developing with each passing day, and netizens have higher and higher requirements for the content of portal websites, so portal websites should be transformed and upgraded in advance." Yang Dongxu said.

Boss Zhang raised his eyebrows. "Transformation and upgrading" is a commonplace topic. At present, everyone feels that portal websites seem to have reached their peak. No one knows how many years they can maintain their peak, and no one knows when they will decline.

Everyone knows that you must seek change for portal websites, otherwise the best performance is now, and even the risk of performance decline will increase exponentially as time goes by.

But how to upgrade is undoubtedly a matter that everyone is confused. To be honest, the rapid development of domestic portal websites is directly related to American portal websites.

Now the proud people working hard in the Internet are basically returnees, and the products they have produced are almost all clones of foreign Internet products.

There was a saying in the venture capital circle: "Don't tell me how awesome your product is, how advanced it is, and what precedent it has created in China. Just tell me which foreign software your product imitates, and I will consider the prospects."

This sentence may be exaggerated, but it is absolutely suitable for the domestic Internet industry.

So at present, these domestic portals, when the technology and routines are almost the same as those of foreign portals, are shoulder to shoulder with the boss. The boss didn't move forward, and they were all very confused about where to go.

Games are one direction they want to try to transform, but Zhang Chaoyang feels that this is not the right direction for the portal. But he still has no clue as to where the right direction is.

"The core profit of portal websites is traffic, and the source of traffic is the attraction of portal content to netizens. In the past, the older generation listened to the radio, and later there were newspapers and television.

Portals were the first web page news. After several years of development, netizens actually feel a little tired of the news on the portal website. Newer things are needed to stimulate. For example, turning text and picture news into video news is a good breakthrough point. "Yang Dongxu didn't seem to have any intention of hiding anything, and spoke without waiting for Boss Zhang to ask further questions.

"Technology is a big problem." Boss Zhang frowned.

The transition to video news is not a new proposal. But the reason why portals haven't done this yet is because of technical constraints.

After all, the news video is not like a movie. You download it and put it there, and someone can click on it and watch it. He needs to update it in real time, otherwise how can it be called news?

And you can't delete the old news after updating it. You have to find a place to continue to store it, because this is one of the resources of the website.

In fact, the current Internet speed is also a big problem. In larger cities, it is fine. In smaller cities, if you download a movie in an Internet cafe, everyone in the Internet cafe will be stuck. How can we attract netizens to browse a few minutes of news that has been buffered for more than half an hour?

Faced with Boss Zhang's concerns, Yang Dongxu did not speak, but smiled and looked at Qiu Bosong next to him.

"Technology is indeed a problem, but it is not an unsolvable problem." Qiu Bosong said.

"Oh?" Boss Zhang looked at Qiu Bosong, and then at Yang Dongxu, trying to figure out something.

I am interested in Xuri Technology's games, and the other party seems to be interested in his own portal.

"There are two solutions to this problem. One is to upgrade the website's server so that the server can carry data larger and faster. The other is that the country has once again increased the speed of broadband. The latter does not know when it will be completed, but the former has Qiu Bosong blinked slightly mysteriously.

Needless to say, the speed of broadband is improved. Once the speed is increased, I can watch anything without lag, and video news will be no problem. Upgrading the server has some meaning.

It means that all the big data is handled by the server, just like a movie downloaded on your computer, you can click on it to watch it. Rather than waiting for snail-like network speeds to buffer, the requirements for the server are not generally high.

After all, the daily pageviews of a portal website can easily reach millions, plus comments, real-time updates, previous data backups, etc. As far as Boss Zhang knows, there seems to be no server in the world that can carry these well. data. It is common for even those foreign portals to get stuck from time to time.

So when Qiu Bosong said that a more powerful server was now available, Zhang Chaoyang didn't believe it at first. Because he has been paying attention to this matter, there is no news internationally, let alone domestically.

But the next moment he suddenly thought of something: "Are you saying that Dongxu Technology's new server technology has made progress?"

Today's Dongxu Technology is a bit like Huawei in later generations. It is obviously a giant but it is low-key and shameless. But it is very famous in the circle. This fame is not because of the previous chip incident, but because of its real products and technology.

For example, in terms of servers, Dongxu Technology is the top player in the world. Almost all domestic technology companies that use servers use Dongxu Technology products.

And it is said that Dongxu Technology has won several large server projects internationally, which even made IBM a little afraid. But this is only heard, no one knows the details. But it is certain that Dongxu Technology’s server technology is very impressive.

"I wonder what Brother Chaoyang thinks about movies and TV series?" Qiu Bosong did not return to Boss Zhang's question, but asked a question with a donkey's head and a horse's mouth.

"Will it be played online?" Boss Zhang paused for a moment.

"It's not a player like Xunlei and Baofeng Video, but a real movie and TV series website. For example, in addition to columns such as news, military, sports, etc., the Sohu website also has columns for movies and TV series.

Before the movies and TV series start broadcasting, in addition to the titles of the movies and TV series themselves. Add a 30-second or even 1-minute ad before the official start. "

"This." Boss Zhang's eyes suddenly lit up, and even his breathing began to become a little heavy.

Originally unable to see clearly about the future of the portal, he suddenly saw a ray of sunshine passing through the dark clouds that had been pressing above his head.
