In 2005, QQ hadn't moved into the Teng Xun building yet. It was still located on the 5th to 10th floor of the Feiyada building in the high-tech park.
In terms of specific business, portal websites and games were still the main source of income. Although the upcoming QQ space had been advertised, the response was mediocre.
Just as QQ space's product manager, Xu Liang, said, they themselves were confused about the business operation strategy.
Especially when there were two companies that were interested in cooperation.
One was Nutshell Electronics from Jianye, and the other was Bubu Gao.
Compared to the current Nutshell, Bu Gao was already a famous company. First, it produced VCD, then DVD. Now, it had a firm market share in the repeater market. Almost all high school and junior high school students had used Bu Gao's repeater to listen to English and Jay Chou.
However, this was business. Although past glory was important, it wasn't a decisive factor. Otherwise, everyone would sit down and compare whose ancestors were "rich".
Therefore, in terms of business, Nutshell crushed Bubu Gao.
Nutshell Electronics' boss and general manager came in person, while Bubu Gao was only the deputy manager of the publicity department.
The size of the people who appeared determined the amount of funds available.
Nutshell's upper limit was 22 million, while Bubu Gao only had 4 million.
It wasn't that Bubu Gao didn't have money. It was just that they sponsored the show and invested in the advertisement. In fact, it reflected that they didn't pay enough attention to QQ space.
This was very much like a scumbag's way of "casting a net". He would tease the east and hook up with the west. He would focus on catching whoever took the bait.
Nutshell was an "honest person". He wholeheartedly wanted to marry QQ Space, and the betrothal gifts he offered were sufficient. As QQ Space's "parent", Xu Liang would definitely choose a good husband for his daughter.
Nutshell, a good match!
Bubu Gao, a scumbag!
Therefore, Bubu Gao's publicity manager only sat for a while before he realized that the opportunity wasn't great. He politely said goodbye.
What was left was a one-on-one discussion between Nutshell and QQ space's project team. The issues discussed were also substantial. One was the specific cooperation fee, the other was the cooperation period, and the last was the cooperation method.
The cooperation method was the best to discuss. It was to open a place on QQ space as an advertisement to ensure that every user who logged into QQ space could see it. The key was the cooperation fee and cooperation period.
"Mr. Xu."
Just now, it was Kong Jing who had been talking. Now, Chen Hansheng was ready to make the final decision.
Xu Liang smiled and said, "Just call me Xu Gong."
Xu Liang was in his thirties. He wore a pair of thick glasses and had a Teng Xun QQ employee tag hanging on his chest. When he spoke, he had the unique feeling of an IT man.
"Xu Gong."
Chen Hansheng immediately corrected himself. "Maybe you don't know much about me, but you should know Chairman Cheng Dejun from Shen Tong and Chairman Wang Wei from Shun Feng. They both know me. I've always said what I want to say. I'm a university student with no ulterior motives. My character and moral integrity are trustworthy."
"Oh?"
Xu Liang raised his head. Chen Hansheng actually knew these two.
"Rocket 101 was founded by me."
Chen Hansheng "inadvertently" pointed out his identity. "Xu Gong, have you heard of this brand?"
"Of course I've heard of it."
Xu Liang said in surprise. "I graduated from Huanan Institute of Technology. I occasionally go back to school to participate in activities. My juniors all have Rocket 101 packaging in their hands. It's said that it was founded by a university student. So it's Mr. Chen."
"Just call me Chen Gong. In fact, I also founded Rocket 101 by accident."
Chen Hansheng modestly waved his hand and talked about some things on campus. After closing the distance between them, he said, "Senior Brother Xu, many of my friends are not optimistic about the future influence of QQ space, including Sister Jing who is beside me."
Kong Jing smiled. She was indeed not optimistic. If she was the big boss of Nutshell, she would be in the same situation as Hong Shiyong, negotiating cooperation with the distributors in the shopping malls.
QQ was just a small thing. Without the computer, it was just a pile of data. Kong Jing really didn't see the value of developing it.
Kong Jing had a kind of amiable charm. When she smiled, she was like Spring Breeze. Xu Liang adjusted his glasses and was too embarrassed to look at her.
"However, I'm very enthusiastic about this cooperation. Can you tell me if there's any room for negotiation?"
Chen Hansheng had a sincere expression on his face.
"Okay."
Xu Liang pursed his lips and thought for a while. "In February this year, we tested it here. The daily number of people online is more than 5 million, so the annual cooperation fee won't be lower than this number."
"Okay."
Chen Hansheng nodded expressionlessly. In short, it was equivalent to 5 million RMB a year.
VIP members paid 12 RMB a month, SVIP members paid 20 RMB a month, yellow diamond and green diamond members paid 15 RMB a month. I'll pay 5 million RMB a year. It's probably SSSS … VIP members?
Well, it's okay. It's very QQ.
"What about the cooperation period?" Chen Hansheng asked again.
"Currently, there are only one and three years."
Xu Liang suggested. "Mr. Chen, I really think one year is good. Because to be honest, we are not confident about the development influence of QQ space. It's more reasonable to choose one year."
"Indeed."
Chen Hansheng nodded. "One year is relatively short. It's flexible and flexible. We can attack and defend, advance and retreat. We don't put all our eggs in one basket. We can ensure that we have sufficient funds … So, I choose three years."
"Pfft ~"
Kong Mengjie was drinking tea. She heard Chen Hansheng talking about the benefits of "one year cooperation" and thought that this was the final choice. She didn't expect that Chen Hansheng would choose three years.
The reversal was so strong that she directly spat out a mouthful of tea.
"Cough, cough, cough …" Kong Mengjie coughed.
She kept coughing, but still asked with a red face, "Since you choose three years, why do you explain the advantages of one year?"
"Ah?"
The cute Chen Hansheng scratched his head. "I'm just saying. Must there be a connection between the two?"
Kong Mengjie suddenly choked.
Xu Liang was also surprised by this reversal. He suddenly felt that this college student who claimed to be "trustworthy" might not be so simple.
"Mr. Chen, do you really want three years?"
Xu Liang still wanted to confirm.
"Just three years."
Chen Hansheng made a request. "Senior Xu, if I become a subscriber with 15 million RMB, can your company help me light up all the QQ icons?"
"No, we can't."
Xu Liang said awkwardly. "Because each icon represents a different business. Some of them are not in the same group as us."
"That's okay."
Chen Hansheng thought for a while and made a request that was not too excessive. "Can I log into QQ? I want to change my signature."
"No problem."
Although Xu Liang felt strange, he still agreed readily.
… …
It was the first time that Chen Hansheng logged into QQ in QQ company. This feeling was like printing money in a banknote printing factory. It was strange and had a bit of a perverted psychology.
"In the end, I still have to shoulder everything alone."
Chen Hansheng changed this QQ signature. He originally wanted to use "!" At the end. But after thinking about it, the full stop expressed the emotions of calmness and vicissitudes. It was more in line with the overall pretentious context.
Of course, this was for Xiao Rongyu to see. Because Shen Youchu's QQ rating was only 3 stars, she was not used to logging into QQ.
In addition, because the "5 million RMB annual super super super VIP" project was quite big, Xu Liang still had to submit it for discussion. The earliest result would be tomorrow. Therefore, Chen Hansheng and Kong Jing decided to stay in Shen City for a night.
"I just got 20 million RMB a few days ago, and now I'm going to spend 15 million RMB?"
After walking out of Feiyada Technology building, Kong Jing could not believe it.
Chen Hansheng used 12 million RMB to buy land before. Although Kong Jing felt that it was exaggerated, land was a fixed asset after all, and there was also room for appreciation. She could somewhat understand.
However, spending 15 million on QQ Space was like rushing into a game.
"15 million RMB, as long as the operation is good, I can earn 150 million RMB in three years."
Chen Hansheng was very confident.
In the evening, Kong Jing went out to have a reunion with her classmates. She graduated from Eastern Guangdong Finance College and was from Shantou. Many of her friends and classmates were in Shen City.
Sister Kong also invited Chen Hansheng, but when Chen Hansheng saw many married women with children, he immediately refused. He would rather sleep in the hotel room.
What's more, Xiao Rongyu's call came quickly.
"What's the meaning of your QQ signature?"
Little Yu 'er asked directly, "After all, you've shouldered everything alone. What have you shouldered?"
Chen Hansheng was watching "Little Soldier Zhang Ga". He immediately turned down the volume, otherwise, the room would be full of "Brother Ga Zi, Brother Ga Zi".
"I don't want to say."
Chen Hansheng's voice was low, "You should understand."
"What should I understand?"
This made Little Yu 'er depressed. It was not her fault. Who was the one who had a foot in two boats?
"I've been accepting interviews these past few days, and I even have to find excuses to deal with Senior Gao Wen. You only know how to send two simple messages!"
Xiao Rongyu felt wronged and proud, "Anyway, I'm asking you, what have you shouldered?"
"I won't say."
Chen Hansheng shook his head, "If you can't take the initiative to understand, what's the point of telling you?"
"I …"
Little Yu 'er was so angry that she directly hung up the phone.
Not long after, Xiao Rongyu's phone rang with a "ding" sound.
Chen Hansheng: "When I heard what you said just now, I couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat on such a hot day. My tears couldn't help but flow down my face. Can this society still be good? The country is full of oppression against us boys. When can boys really stand up?"
Xiao Rongyu:???
… ….
(Does anyone have a ticket? If you don't, Old Liu's tears are about to fall.)
