Chapter 393 The Best Strategy Failed, the Middle Strategy!
Building a data center by yourself is usually done only when the company reaches a certain scale.
The current cloud data storage is convenient and flexible, and does not require maintenance costs. It is cheap to use and is the first choice for small and medium-sized Internet companies.
Duoyu Company can barely be considered a medium-sized company.
If the company's assets are evaluated, it is estimated to be several hundred million.
In theory, it is more affordable to use cloud space at present.
Mr. Pu does not!
Spend money? Spend money is right!
At the end of the last cycle, Mr. Pu decided to invest 11 million to build Duoyu Company's computer room, so as to move Duoyu Audiobook, Zhongshan Novels, Duoyu Games and other businesses to his own computer room.
In fact, it is useless, mainly to find an excuse to spend money.
In the early stage of the last cycle, 5 million was invested to purchase some equipment. Now it has arrived at the storage location and needs to be built. After debugging, it can be put into use.
If there is no such expenditure, Mr. Pu will earn 50 million less in the last cycle!
It's terrible!
"Next, we will invest the remaining 6 million to get the computer room up and running. In the future, the venue fee, electricity fee, maintenance fee, and personnel management fee will be a long-term expenditure. Perfect!"
During this period, President Pu did not deliberately look for new projects to lose money. He tried his hand at two projects: acquiring websites and building computer rooms, and spent 21 million.
"It seems that making up excuses is also a good way to spend money."
Pu decided to wait for the suppression of Qidian this month while thinking about some new wasteful expenses.
Xiao Hua, the director of the operations department of Qidian, is numb!
Numb!
During this week, the corners of his mouth gradually went down when he went to work every day.
From the beginning:
<( ̄︶ ̄)>
It has become like this:
(;′⌒`)
There is a problem with his best strategy!
Big problem!
It was originally agreed that Qidian's strong strength would make a better website, comprehensively crush Zhongshan International in terms of content, quality, and speed, and then win this war.
The application and establishment of the website went smoothly. We found a well-known art team in the industry and designed the interface of Qidian International. It was gorgeous and practical, and it was very different from the simple and somewhat crude interface of Zhongshan International.
This is the regular army!
As a result, the most critical part went wrong.
They did not find a group of suitable translators to translate the books on the Qidian website.
This is very uncomfortable!
Without books, no one will read the website no matter how good and smooth it is!
Xiao Hua was very angry about this and asked the people below why Zhongshan Novels could find so many excellent translators, but they could only find a few mediocre ones at Qidian?
Where are the people!
The supervisor at that time answered like this: "Boss Xiao, we really tried our best. Talents who can translate online novels into English for people to read fluently are already very scarce in China, and most of them are international students. It is troublesome for us to contact them. And according to what I know, most of the excellent translators that can be found have been poached by Zhongshan Novel in advance, and they are offered high salaries to help them translate every day."
Xiao Hua interrupted: "Then poach them! We can't afford it at Qidian???"
The supervisor smiled bitterly: "I want to, but the new manager of Zhongshan Novel is too smart. He signed a contract with all the translators, and they can only translate online novels for Zhongshan Novel within a year. They seem to have anticipated what we are going to do and made a good layout in advance. Poaching people will not work."
"In the past few months, the excellent translators on the market have been poached several times by Zhongshan Novel, and basically all of them have been taken in. We can't find anyone stronger than their team!"
Xiao Hua was silent.
He is also an international student, and he also loves to read online novels, so he understands this matter.
There are a lot of people who can translate Chinese into English. They are not necessarily international students. Many domestic students who have graduated from undergraduate language courses can do it.
However, there are too few translators who can translate online articles without changing the meaning and maintaining the story and readability.
This requires two prerequisites: first, the translator must read the online articles himself and understand the stories and expressions in them; second, he needs to understand the culture of the place of output and know how foreigners can chat.
These two points are indispensable.
In this way, most of the people who can choose are international students, and they must be short of money. Otherwise, if the rich man gives you 1,000 yuan a day, who will play with you!
Xiao Hua sat in his large office chair, moved his body, and felt a little uncomfortable.
His best strategy was not working.
Without a translator who can compete with Zhongshan International, he can't produce works better than them.
"Haha~ Interesting."
Xiao Hua's mouth corners suddenly curled up. He was blocked by a small company.
"Minghao, find out which company is providing the data cloud service for Zhongshan Novels?"
A smart man outside answered: "Boss Xiao, Duoyu's cloud services are all provided by Penguin Cloud Data."
Xiao Hua nodded: "Ask Penguin Cloud's Lao Sun to arrange a time, open their firewall, and arrange Xiao Hei and others to send stress data packets. Don't go too far, just make their database unstable and freeze and crash."
"Okay, Boss Xiao."
After arranging things here, Xiao Hua's expression eased a little.
As his first move after taking office, he must show Zhongshan Novels to the senior management of Qidian. He also wants to take the position of Xingchen in the future.
As long as Qidian's overseas business is taken, he will be a great contributor to the expansion of territory and become a leader of the company.
In addition to his relationship with the board of directors, he will have a great chance to climb up in the next one or two years.
And the first stumbling block in front of him is Zhongshan International.
Xiao Hua must bring them down!
"Don't blame me, who let you touch Qidian's cake. Small websites should have the awareness of small websites. Honestly merge into Qidian and become one of our channels. Isn't it delicious? You have to die."
Although the best strategy is the best and has no security risks, and the biggest gains after becoming famous.
However, the middle strategy is actually the fastest to take effect. It can make Zhongshan Novels lose a large number of customers and cause disputes due to cloud data problems. At that time, he will ask someone to discredit it, and soon a large number of netizens who are easily incited will trample this website into the dust.
When Qidian comes to purchase, it can also bring this group of excellent translators with it.
Zhongshan International has since been merged into Qidian International, and Qidian has taken off directly.
"There should be no more accidents now, right?"
"Put it away, put it away, all right!"
Zhang Yang directed the drivers to put all their machines in the big warehouse in Yanjiao.
The rent here is cheap, the population is sparse, the electricity is stable, and there are policy subsidies.
It is most suitable for building a data center.
"Hey~ There are so many machines, it suddenly makes me want to write a sci-fi blockbuster, a story about robots fighting humans."
