Once you open IE, you can find the website you want to visit. It was such a simple and intuitive thing.
Even the author of the website did not expect hao123 to be so popular. Later, the website was sold to Baidu for 50 million RMB.
How much was 50 million RMB? That was in 2004, when buying a house in Beijing was only a few hundred thousand RMB.
An Internet cafe manager from a rural area used it to realize the legend of wealth.
When a reporter asked why Baidu wanted to buy an extremely simple URL navigation website, the founder said that the website was simple.
Baidu's founder said that it was too simple, so simple that no one could surpass it!
If that person did not call the website 123, perhaps the website would not be so popular. In the Internet economy, simplicity was the most popular.
Not many people understood this concept. In this era, there were only a few people who truly understood it.
Back in this era, Fang Tian instilled the concept of simplicity into every programmer's mind and infiltrated every application under Soft cloud. This was why Soft cloud applications were so popular and had such a large number of fans.
Today, the number one URL navigation website in the country was no longer hao123, but Angel URL Navigation.
The URL navigation website that was used every day was deeply ingrained in people's hearts, and its market share was as high as 95%!
With the help of this URL navigation website, a huge amount of traffic was sent to Golden Jade Novel Website.
This was also one of the main sales channels for authors to write novels on Golden Jade Novel Website.
"What are you laughing at?" Wen Zhiyuan was not happy, "How about we go to the ring and compete?"
In Jianghu Bar, there was a ring built in front of it. Every night, there would be a few fights, and it was quite exciting.
Fang Tian looked at the ring and shook his head, "It's boring to fight with you. Our match is online."
What he said was also reasonable. So what if he could defeat Fang Tian on the stage? It was just a show of power for a while. The real battle was on the line.
Wen Zhiyuan thought for a while and said, "How about we make a bet?"
"A bet?" Fang Tian was stunned.
"Yes, a bet." Wen Zhiyuan smiled, "Let's bet on whether 'Wulin God of Swords' can become popular."
Your website is fully promoting it, no matter how bad the book is, it will still become popular.
Fang Tian shook his head and said, "It's boring to bet like this. How about this, my website is promoting the Legend of the Sword and Fairy. Let's see which one is more popular, Wulin Saber God on your website or my website's Legend of the Sword and Fairy. "
It would be strange if a novel with an unpopular theme could become popular. Wen Zhiyuan said without hesitation, "Alright. What about winning or losing? What's the price for winning or losing? "
Fang Tian rubbed his chin and thought for a while. Then, he said, "First, whoever loses will have to admit that they lost on the front page of the official website.
Secondly, in a prominent position on the website's homepage, they had to admit that their website was No. 2's literary platform and that the other party was No. 1 in the world!
Third, provide links to the other party's website on every page of the website.
For example, if you lose, you have to provide links to the Golden Jade Novel Network on every page of the Fantasy Realm website and write a sentence — Golden Jade Novel, the world's number one novel platform. The most exciting and rich novels are here. Please click here to enter! "
If he lost, he had to admit it. This was very reasonable. He could completely accept the first agreement.
The second one was a little humiliating, but it was very interesting, so he could accept it.
However, if he lost the third one, it would definitely be a disaster for the website!
Not only did he have to admit that he was No. 2, but he also had to admit that the other party was No. 1 in the world. Then, he would provide links to the other party's website.
What would the result be? The users of his website would run to the other party's website.
The loss of a large number of users would definitely be a disaster for the website!
Wen Zhiyuan quickly said, "The first and second terms are fine, but not the third one!"
"Why? Are you afraid of losing? "Fang Tian looked at him with a smile.
"Haha!" Wen Zhiyuan drank a mouthful of white wine and laughed wildly. "Why would I be afraid of you? What a joke. I just feel that the agreement is unfair! "
"Unfair? How is it unfair? "
Wen Zhiyuan poured himself a glass of wine and said, "My website has eight million active users. However, as far as I know, your website only has three million."
"If I lose, my website's eight million users will all go to your side. However, if you lose, you can only get three million users at most. It's not fair! "
This feeling was like a tycoon gambling with a beggar. Whoever lost would lose all their wealth.
The tycoon had a few million net worth. If he lost, he would lose a few million to the other party. However, the beggar's entire net worth was only a few hundred yuan. If he lost all his net worth, it would only be a few hundred yuan.
Obviously, it was very unfair.
Fang Tian drank a mouthful of black beer and said, "My website's popularity is far from your website's. This kind of bet is indeed a little unfair.
However, don't forget that the novel website is only a small part of Soft cloud's huge territory.
How about this, if I lose, I'll provide a link to your website on the Angel Cloud Browser's homepage! "
Hearing that, Wen Zhiyuan's eyes lit up!
The Angel Cloud Browser was now the country's number one browser. Countless surfers in the past started from there. Back then, Wen Zhiyuan wanted to spend money to buy a link to the Angel Cloud Browser's homepage.
It was to add the novel category to the Fantasy World Novel Network on the homepage.
However, the price shocked Wen Zhiyuan. It was just adding a link, and it cost five million yuan!
Five million yuan was fine. Thinking that it could bring a lot of traffic to the Fantasy World, Wen Zhiyuan gritted his teeth and accepted it. However, Soft cloud was unwilling to add his website no matter how much money he spent.
The Angel Cloud Browser's homepage only had one novel website, and that was Golden Jade Novel Network.
Now, Soft cloud was going all out to build a novel platform. Fang Tian could not open this link to his opponent.
Just like Alibaba's Taobao, would they provide a link to the Jingdong Shopping Center?
Now, hearing that Fang Tian was willing to open this link, Wen Zhiyuan was really excited. Although he had to win first.
However, no matter what, this was something he had always wanted.
"Okay. I agree to all three conditions! "Wen Zhiyuan put down his cup heavily.
He agreed. Next, the two of them talked about some details.
For example, whoever lost would have to add a link to the opponent's website for up to three months. It could not be removed …
Fantasy World's Wulin Sword God and Golden Jade Novel Network's Legend of the Sword and Fairy were going to compete!
Between these two books, whoever had better results would win.
It was not just a competition between the two books, but also the survival of the two websites!
