MTL - Rebirth Starts at 7 Million-Chapter 85 The development direction of Star Chat
The small-scale discussion started by Star Chat did not attract many people's attention, let alone alarmed a giant like Penguin. Compared with Star Chat, Penguin was more concerned about the game rankings launched by the Star Far app platform.
From the moment Xingyuan application platform 2.0 was launched, Penguin has been paying attention to the game rankings.
In just 7 hours, the national rankings of the game rankings of Xingyuan application platform have been refreshed nearly 10,000 times.
At present, the number of users who have upgraded the 2.0 application platform of Xingyuan is only more than 5 million, which is only a drop in the bucket compared to the fixed users of Penguin's products.
But the enthusiasm of these users for the game leaderboard is far beyond Penguin's imagination.
For this reason, the Penguin executives even directly pulled a countermeasure group to discuss.
"Tell me! What do you think of the game rankings on the Xingyuan application platform?" asked the leader of the countermeasures team.
"Team leader, I personally think it's just that the players are moved by the money offensive of Xingyuan Technology Co., Ltd. After all, there is no precedent for giving players money except in some online game leagues." A middle-aged man wearing glasses said.
"I don't think it's that simple. You must know that even large-scale online game leagues are only for high-end players, and there are few opportunities for ordinary players to participate in game competitions and get rewards." A capable player in his early 30s said the woman.
"I agree. I think the ranking list of Xingyuan application platform is like the CF Hundred Cities League that our company launched last year. Their goal is to fully mobilize registered users to participate in the game." said Zhang Jian, an old acquaintance of Luo Fan.
"To mobilize players' enthusiasm in this way, the boss of Xingyuan Technology Co., Ltd. is not easy!
Lao Zhang, you talked to him before, what is your impression of him? ' asked the leader.
"To be honest, it's quite ordinary, I went to him for the patents under his company's name.
My first impression of this young man was not good. He was too immature. Let me, Meng Xianbin from Ali, and Yu Yin from Baidu meet up, and they talked to us about the two patents in front of us. Consider whether we will join forces to lower prices.
Moreover, his patents are still placed under the company's name, which we can find as soon as we check, rather than the practice of personally holding the patent and licensing it to the company.
Combining the above two points, I think he is still a little immature in terms of business operations.
But this young man is very thoughtful and capable. The two mobile games 2048 and Fruit Ninja are excellent. It is said that he wrote the two patents himself. "
"But I heard that he didn't study computer science, but economics! How did he know how to program?" asked the team leader.
"According to my investigation during this period and the reports of the official media, I feel that his programming is likely to be self-taught." Zhang Jian replied.
"Can self-study be able to learn this level?" The capable woman asked in a daze.
"He can get 211 without an English score, which shows that his IQ is different from ordinary people, and it is not surprising that he can be self-taught." Zhang Jian said.
"Is this the legendary genius?"
"maybe!"
"Such talent, do you think it is possible to absorb into our company?"
"Geniuses are arrogant, and it is unlikely that his Xingyuan application platform is booming to win him over." Zhang Jian said after thinking about it.
"I think so, and I think financing his company is a better choice than pulling him directly to our company," said the team leader.
......
At the same time, in Luo Fan's office, Xu Jiale and Cao Shuai were chatting with Luo Fan about Xingchao.
"Boss, is your idea of Star Chat really just a built-in social software for the game?" Xu Jiale asked straight to the point.
"Then Brother Xu, what do you think the positioning of Xingchao should be?" Luo Fan asked rhetorically.
"It is definitely impossible to compete head-on with Penguins, but we can learn from Weibo, avoid its edge, and open up a battlefield in another field!" Before Xu Jiale spoke, Cao Shuai said one step ahead.
"Another field? Which one is it?" Luo Fan continued to ask.
"Business, I think our Star Chat should be positioned as a business person. At present, Penguin is mainly for young and middle-aged social networking, and there is no action in the professional business social field. We can take the opportunity to seize the opportunity from this aspect." Xu Jiale said .
"I think so too. At present, there is Weibo for collective social networking, and yy for real-time voice in games. It is impossible for Xingchao to start from these two aspects.
Therefore, the most suitable direction is social networking in business, and our face-to-face group building is very suitable for promotion in this area.
Imagine that two companies have just signed a contract and want to keep abreast of each other's work progress. Isn't the best way to set up a group chat like this? You can ask in the group anytime, anywhere. "Cao Shuai echoed.
"If we can add a file transfer function to our group to transfer some ppts or documents, it will be more convenient and more suitable for us to develop in this area."
"That's right, I can add..."
When the two of you spoke to me, Luo Fan's head was big when he heard it.
"Okay! I know what you think, but there is only one development direction of Star Chat at this stage, and that is - the in-game voice.
Any action we make now may attract the attention of others. At this stage, it is because the game leaderboard has helped us attract the attention of most people, otherwise there would have been a big problem.
Since you have all come to ask today, I will simply tell you all about it. My future plan for Xingchao is to occupy about 20% of the social market.
With penguins around, our limit is around 20%. In fact, if it exceeds 10%, it is considered a success.
As you may think, my positioning for Xingchao is also business, but in addition to business, I also want to develop Xingchao in an education-related direction.
My goal is that in the future, every class in every school will use our Star Chat.
The work-related social interaction of office workers is inseparable from our Star Chat. Do you understand what I mean? "
Xu Jiale and Cao Shuai looked at each other and nodded.
