"Boss Chen."
"Li Nan, have a seat."
"How's YY doing?"
"YY has surpassed QQ in terms of registered users and concurrent users. However, QQ still has a certain number of concurrent users, so we can't relax. "
"I'm glad you're so careful."
After the discussion with Duan Yongping, they signed a contract and established a new company, "Pear Technologies".
According to the agreement, Bubugao would provide the funds and technology.
Huanyu Technologies would provide the funds and resources. Of course, they would also be responsible for strategic arrangements.
This resource was YY.
Hence, before launching the MP3 player, Chen Yu still needed to consolidate the internet resources on his side.
"What are you going to do next?"
"Boss Chen, our next goal is to increase the stickiness between YY and users."
"Oh, tell me about it."
"YY itself is an instant messaging app. Everyone needs instant messaging. However, the internet isn't just instant messaging. Other than instant messaging, our users also have other needs, such as playing games, sending emails, reading the news … Therefore, our next step is to launch our YY email and YY portal. "
Chen Yu was quite satisfied with Li Nan's reply.
Although QQ was defeated by YY, it wasn't dead yet.
It would take a long time for QQ to die.
Therefore, during this process, YY had to arm itself step by step.
This was what Li Nan meant by stickiness.
If YY could satisfy all the needs of internet users, then YY would be a success.
"Don't worry about the portal. It's a bit big, so we can't do it right away. We can start with the email first. After all, we have a certain advantage by binding YY to the email. Also, I'll give you another business. "
"Boss Chen, what business?"
"YY music."
Chen Yu said, "There are too many users who listen to music online. In fact, there are more users than instant messaging users. However, we didn't pull this group of users to our side. If we can gather these music lovers, it will be of great benefit to our YY. "
Of course, the YY music that Chen Yu mentioned was not only for YY, but also for the future MP3 players.
"Boss Chen, you're right. There's a huge demand for music. However, we don't have any talents in music. If we do it ourselves, the cycle might be a little longer. "
If it was email, web portals, and the like, it would be fine.
These were all Internet products.
Everyone had heard and seen a lot. Even if they weren't experts, they more or less knew what was going on.
But combining music and the Internet, how should this be done?
Was it going to be an ordinary music website, or was it going to be innovative?
But how exactly should he innovate?
The website was still a website, but the content of the website was different. The way he operated was also different.
Something as artistic as music was somewhat difficult to consider.
"You guys study it for a while first, then buy a powerful music website."
"That's doable."
Li Nan also nodded. "Currently, the traffic of the major music websites is considerable, but there's no way to make a profit. If we buy them, it won't cost much."
This was a very good deal.
"Okay, that's it. I have to go to Bubugao to meet with them."
After giving instructions, Chen Yu went to Guan City.
Bubugao's headquarters was located in Guan City, not far from Shencheng.
This was the headquarters of China's electronics companies. Countless electronics companies were located here.
"Chen Yu, you actually took a taxi?"
"Uh, it's quite convenient to take a taxi."
Although Huanyu Technologies already had many cars, most of the time Chen Yu didn't need them.
When he needed to go somewhere, he would take a taxi.
Shencheng and Guan City weren't far, so it was convenient to take a taxi.
"Teacher Duan, your Bubugao headquarters is very impressive."
Although the current Bubugao couldn't be compared to Bubugao in the future, Bubugao was already a famous company.
Naturally, their headquarters was also very large.
"This time, you're giving me a show of strength."
Chen Yu joked.
"Come on, Bubugao can't be compared to Huanyu Technologies. You're in the high-tech industry. We're just a processing factory. Look, behind us are all factories."
"Teacher Duan, are you being modest again?"
"Let me introduce you. This is our Bubugao's deputy general manager, Jin Zhijiang."
"Hello, Mr. Jin. I've used the Bubugao repeater you introduced. The quality is just right."
Chen Yu shook hands with Jin Zhijiang.
Jin Zhijiang was known as one of the Duan Yongping's three disciples in the future, the person in charge of Bubugao.
It could be said that each of the Duan Yongping's three disciples was awesome.
Jin Zhijiang was the most low-key one.
But the most low-key one, the Bubugao repeater, the little genius phone of the future, and the Bubugao repeater, were all made by Jin Zhijiang.
Of course, other than Jin Zhijiang, there were a few others who were also very good.
But the Duan Yongping didn't bring them. Presumably, Bubugao was still in the education electronics industry.
The other two only showed their talents after the smartphone market exploded.
"Boss Chen is being modest. I'm also using your instant messaging system."
Jin Zhijiang replied with a smile.
"Come, let's go to the conference room."
After calling Jin Zhijiang, the three of them went to the conference room.
"Boss Chen, Mr. Duan has already discussed the MP3 business with me in detail. But there's something I don't understand. "
"Please go ahead, Mr. Jin."
"Currently, there are already people making MP3, but it's not selling well. Is it worth it for us to invest so much?"
"Of course it's worth it."
Chen Yu said, "The market needs to be cultivated step by step. In the past, our instant messaging system only had tens of thousands of people online at the same time. Now, there are millions of people online."
"But similar companies are already making this product. How can we compete with them?"
"First, quality."
A few days ago, Chen Yu only gave a rough explanation to Duan Yongping. But now that they were officially working together, everything had to be clarified.
Jin Zhijiang's question was also what Duan Yongping wanted to ask. It was just that Jin Zhijiang asked it on behalf of Duan Yongping.
Chen Yu knew that in order for Duan Yongping to fully immerse themselves in the MP3 process, all their doubts had to be dispelled.
"With your company, I believe that we will definitely have no problems with quality. Also, in terms of product design, Huanyu Technologies can provide some help."
Chen Yu took out two design drawings as he spoke. "Although Huanyu Technologies's main route is the Internet, in fact, all roads lead to the same goal. In terms of product design, we are most concerned about user experience. In this field, we have a term called UI design. It refers to the overall design of the human-computer interaction, operation logic, and aesthetic interface of the Internet product. Although hardware is not software, I believe that UI design can also be used on hardware. "
Chen Yu's words made Jin Zhijiang and Duan Yongping's eyes light up.
He didn't expect the Internet to have the same thinking as hardware.
In fact, to a certain extent, the Internet was more specific and detailed.
For example, UI design didn't exist in their hardware. Although they had been working in this direction, the concept of UI design simply pointed the designer in the right direction.
No wonder the innovation of the Internet was faster than the innovation of the electronics industry.
This kind of concrete theory could greatly inspire the creativity of the industry and create countless products.
Of course, this was only their initial opinion.
Anyone could say it, but no one knew how well they could do it.
Duan Yongping and Jin Zhijiang each took out one of Chen Yu's MP3 designs.
"Eh …"
"This design is very novel."
"Not only novel, but it also looks very high-tech."
With just a glance, the two of them were conquered by these two designs.
One of the two MP3 designs was square, and the other was rectangular.
But whether it was a square or a rectangle, he made people want to own this kind of product.
"These two designs were drafts I made a few days ago, and there are still a lot of imperfections."
Chen Yu looked at the two and explained.
Of course, this was to show off.
Although it wasn't perfect, these two designs were based on a series of future classic MP3 designs by Chen Yu.
What was more amazing was that Chen Yu also incorporated some smartphone design into these two designs.
If such a product was launched, forget about them, even Chen Yu would be tempted.
"CEO Duan, I think it's time to fire our designer."
Jin Zhijiang sighed and looked at Duan Yongping.
"Chen Yu, are you a design major?"
Duan Yongping was also very emotional.
He had seen so many designs for electronic products, but he had never seen one as perfect as Chen Yu's.
This wasn't an electronic product, it was a work of art.
"Now that I see it, I have a lot more confidence."
Those who were handsome and beautiful were naturally more popular.
The same was true for electronic products and people.
With a good appearance, it could be said that half the battle was won.
In addition, there wasn't much technology in the MP3 itself. The appearance design was probably the most important technology.
"By the way, Chen Yu, is your music website mainly to promote our MP3?"
"Not just for this."
Chen Yu shook his head: "Part of the promotion, but more importantly, it's to provide content for our MP3."
"So it's to download songs?"
"Yes. We can make a program in our MP3. As long as this program is connected to the computer, it can enter our music website. Users can download the most popular songs on this music website. "
"I don't think that's necessary."
Jin Zhijiang shook his head: "Ordinary MP3s can also download songs online."
"I know, ordinary MP3s put the downloaded songs in the MP3 music folder, but the songs downloaded by ordinary MP3s are all pirated. That is to say, they don't pay, but our MP3 users have to charge for downloading."
"Charge?"
"Yes, our music website is equivalent to a music store. Users can buy whatever songs they need in this store."
It was just that after Chen Yu finished speaking, Jin Zhijiang looked at Chen Yu in disbelief: "Boss Chen, you mean to let users pay to download songs?"
"Is there anything wrong with that?"
"Boss Chen, are you …"
Jin Zhijiang really wanted to ask if there was water in your brain.
In the end, it was Duan Yongping who said, "There is a problem in this. If there is free download, why should we pay?"

PS: Brothers, after a few days of rest, Big White is going to explode again in these few days. Let's set a small goal first. Before the New Year, there will be at least 3 chapters a day, and each chapter will be at least 3000 words. Let everyone read to their heart's content.
In addition, I'm very grateful to brothers for their continuous support. Just like this chapter said, if there is free, why should everyone read Big White's chapters? I know, it's because everyone loves Big White deeply. Hehe, just kidding. I know that everyone pays because they want to support their favorite authors and hope that some of our authors can write better.
Thank you, Big White can only repay everyone with explosiveness.
