In addition to making Daqian Entertainment a top star, the most important thing was that QQ and broadband had a huge impact on the crowd.
For ordinary people, QQ was the foundation for them to pick up girls and have an online relationship.
But in the eyes of some elites, broadband was more important. This was a technology that could change the world. As long as there was broadband, then a large amount of data would no longer be a problem to transmit directly through the network. In this way, a lot of costs could be saved on data transmission.
At this time, most companies in Fusang had entered the computer era. Office software such as PowerPoint, Word, Excels, and others had also become necessary for countless companies.
As a result, a large number of work documents would be created. Many of these work documents were more than ten or even hundreds of megabytes in size. If one wanted to send an email through the previous telephone line, the time was basically calculated in hours.
As a result, many companies did not intend to transmit documents through the network at all. Instead, they directly delivered them through human flesh. Many companies even had jobs that specialized in delivering various documents.
In the era of floppy disks, these jobs were more difficult. But now, it was better. They were directly sent USB drives, and they did not have to carry a lot of things.
But now with broadband, it may only take a few minutes to transmit directly through the network. There was no need for specialized people to deliver documents anymore.
Of course, broadband was definitely not just a function of transmitting documents. Although it was limited to the era, many of the network uses that people in the future were accustomed to in this era could not be thought of at all. But in the eyes of many keen people, broadband already had the power to change the world.
Especially after such publicity this time, in a month, thousands of companies had reached a cooperation with Xiamu Network. They let Xiamu upgrade their original network to broadband, or simply apply for new broadband.
It should be known that broadband for companies was not a small amount. A broadband with the highest speed of 1 megabyte would cost up to 600,000 yen a month. Many large companies directly applied for 10 megabyte level broadband, which would cost 4.5 million yen a month.
In addition, there was also a considerable initial installation fee, which was about 5 million yen.
Don't doubt it. This was the price of broadband these days, and many times, you couldn't apply for it even if you had the money!
So in just a month, Xiamu's income was as high as 7.2 billion yen. If converted into USD, it was about 80 million.
And this was only for companies. Many people had also applied for broadband access.
Of course, home broadband was definitely not as expensive as corporate broadband. A 100 KB broadband would cost a family about 50,000 yen a month.
Well, it seems to be quite expensive. After all, the lowest income of Fusangpeople these days is 50,000 yen.
However, this was not a big deal. In any case, the poor definitely had no interest in broadband at this time. The elites who had the money to install broadband did not care about the cost of 50,000 yen a month. To them, the most important thing was to catch up with the trends of the entire era.
In a month, more than 12,000 households in Tokyo had installed broadband. Summing it all up, Xiamu Network earned nearly 150 million USD in sales in a month.
What was even more amazing was that although a portion of the initial installation fee was a one-time fee, there was still a portion of the monthly fee that had to be paid every month. Therefore, Xiamu Network's monthly stable income was about 50 million USD.
With the continuous increase in the number of people installing broadband, the stable monthly income would exceed 100 million USD in less than half a year. In a year or two, it would not be a problem to reach 500 million USD.
After all, in addition to Tokyo, all the major cities in Fusang would have broadband access. Such an income even made the people from the four major consortiums drool after a simple investigation and calculation.
But helplessly, they did not have the courage to spend 80 billion USD on the construction of broadband lines like Xiamu Network, so they could only watch Xiamu Network make a lot of money.
Well, it was worth mentioning that the four major consortiums were the first companies to install broadband.

"Mr. Fukuyama's speech today was really good. He was right. Hua Xia will definitely collapse in ten years at most. Hahahaha!!" In a five-star hotel room in Tokyo, a few people were laughing and talking.
"Yes, leader, and Shi Pingjun. Mr. Fukuyama is such a knowledgeable person, he definitely won't be wrong. Hua Xia's collapse might not even take ten years. It will be over in a few years!"
"Yoshi, when you go back, you must organize Mr. Fukuyama's thoughts and then show them to those backward idiots. Although they may not be able to be enlightened like us in their lifetime, we still have to give them a chance. Maybe they can overturn the whole house!" Another bald, round-faced guy said in unfamiliar Chinese.
"Shi Pingjun is right. Mr. Fukuyama's speech today really enlightened me. He is right. The Western democratic system is the end of history. This is a universal value. Even the backward and ignorant Hua Xia will be conquered by such a system!"
The more they talked, the happier they became. It was as if they had already seen the end of history and the collapse of Hua Xia.
Of the three people present, one of them was the famous Taro Ishihira. Of course, his original name was Ishihira, but he was now a noble Fusangpeople. Naturally, he couldn't be called Ishihira anymore. He had to be called Taro Ishihira.
By the way, there are many dogs in Fusang who like to be called Taro, but I'm not insulting dogs. I'm just stating facts.
As for the other two people, they hadn't added the suffix Taro to their names yet. After all, they were now in Hua Xia and were respected by ordinary people. Otherwise, they wouldn't have the opportunity to interview Fusang at public expense.
As for Mr. Fukuyama, he was a very famous scholar in Fusang. He wrote a book called "The End of History," which was very popular in the Western world and ushered in a great reputation for him.
Now, he was lecturing all over the world and promoting his ideas. The three people were very lucky to be invited to listen to Mr. Fukuyama's speech. They suddenly felt as if they had received a treasure. Their thoughts were thoroughly baptized, and they almost knelt down to worship him as their teacher.
However, it was worth mentioning that Mr. Fukuyama's full name was Francis Fukuyama, and he was a real United States citizen.
It was no wonder that Taro Ishihira and the others admired Mr. Fukuyama so much. After all, Mr. Fukuyama had become a perfect banana, and they were still half-baked goods.
It seemed that they still needed to work harder!
