"As for portals, I believe everyone knows that Huanyu Technologies is also doing portals. "Of course, we're not doing portals to compete with you. We're doing portals to better serve Huanyu Technologies' various businesses. "The profits of portals alone are too low. It's not as profitable as online games. "Therefore, I don't think everyone should have time to think about making games."
Since it was a bluff, Chen Yu could not be bragging, let alone completely empty words.
If he really wanted to bluff them, he naturally had to come up with something real.
"Boss Chen, forget it. Online games are not necessarily very profitable. Our Shin-Lang did not make much money when we entered."
Cao Guowei smiled and said.
At that time, Shin-Lang had also entered the gaming industry, but the market's response was not good.
Instead of being jealous of them, it was better to do well in portals.
Moreover, he felt that this guy was trying to divert attention.
"Mr. Cao, temporary failure is nothing. As long as you succeed once, you'll realize that all your previous failures are nothing. "Just like Uncle Ding's Journey to the West. Uncle Ding, your Journey to the West must have made a lot of money."
"Uncle again …"
Ding Lei was so angry that he vomited blood. "First of all, I'm only a dozen years older than you. I'm not at the level of uncle yet. Moreover, I can't afford you to call me uncle. Don't call me uncle. I don't want to take advantage of you. "However, our Journey to the West is not very profitable. Even if it is, it's not as profitable as your popular games."
"Look at what Uncle Ding is saying. Let me calculate how much Boss Ding's Journey to the West 2 has made."
Since he wanted to bluff them, he had to come up with more temptations.
"Journey to the West uses the point card system. One hour is four points. One point is ten cents. One hour is forty cents. That's 9.6 yuan for 24 hours. Currently, Journey to the West has broken through 500,000 simultaneous online users. The daily income is about five million. Because it's impossible to have 500,000 simultaneous online users for 24 hours, a 20% discount here is four million. Four million a day, 120 million a month. That's at least 1.2 billion a year. But in fact, Journey to the West doesn't only have this amount of income. Because of the addition of the point card consignment system, the actual sales volume of the point cards is often more than 30% higher than the revenue. In other words, the annual income may reach 1.5 billion, or even more … In this amount, the profit is at least 800 million. "
"Chen Yu, you can come to NetEase and be our financial officer. You're so precise with your calculations."
Ding Lei coughed up blood.
However, he was just joking. This kind of debt could be settled by everyone.
Cao Guowei, Zhang Chaoyang, and the others knew what was going on. A yearly income of 1.5 billion and a profit of 800 million was a lot, but they couldn't really invest all of it into online games. Take NetEase for example. Because they were fully invested in gaming, their portal was not as good as Sohu or Shin-Lang.
Of course, Chen Yu knew that the profits from NetEase would not tempt them.
But this was just the appetizer.
"In my opinion, you guys are the ones who earn the most money. Come, come, come, Chen Yu, calculate how much money your games make in a year. "
"This is what I wanted to tell everyone."
Chen Yu smiled. "Huanyu Technologies currently has three games. One is Legend of Mir, one is Fantasy Journey to the West, and the last one is Bubble Hall. Let's calculate Legend of Mir and Fantasy Journey to the West. Both of these games have exceeded 1 million. This means that these two games are four times more profitable than Journey to the West 2. Just from these two games, Huanyu Technologies' revenue can exceed 6 billion and make 3.2 billion in profit. Also, Bubble Hall is a free-to-play game. You guys might not be able to calculate its profits, but I'll be frank with you. This game's profits have exceeded 500 million. "
"Tsk …"
Cao Guowei, Zhang Chaoyang, and the others didn't really care.
But now, after hearing Chen Yu's words, the two of them felt an extremely strong fluctuation in their hearts.
"Just from these three games, they can make 3.7 billion in profit … How many years will it take for their portal to reach the level of Huanyu Technologies?"
Although he was shocked, Cao Guowei calmed himself down. "Then we can only congratulate Boss Chen."
He felt that Chen Yu was trying to drag them down.
Zhang Chaoyang also had the same thought. "Our Sohu is also making online games. Although online games are very profitable, it's not like any game can make money."
"I'm just suggesting. The gaming industry is huge. Everyone can only do better if they all join in. There's no competition."
Chen Yu didn't think much of it.
It seemed like the two of them didn't care about what he said. But was that possible?
Even Microsoft's Bill was slightly surprised when he saw Bill's expression.
He was the world's big boss. Even he was surprised that online games were so profitable, let alone them.
"Boss Chen, don't trick everyone into making online games. If online games are so profitable, you can earn it yourself. Why do you want everyone to earn it?"
Baidu's Li Yanhong knew that Chen Yu was trying to trick the two bosses, Shin-Lang and Sohu.
"Boss Lee, that's not right. I'm not trying to trick you. We're all on the same side. I'm doing this for everyone's sake. Everyone is making money. Don't you think so? "
We're on the same side?
Li Yanhong finally understood how shameless Chen Yu was.
Our own people will beat others until they go bankrupt?
Our own people will mess with Baidu?
Our own people …
However, Li Yanhong also knew that he had to be polite.
So, it wasn't a big deal.
"If that's the case, you can focus on making online games. Why do you want to make a search engine? You have to know that based on your calculations, we can't make as much money as you do online games. "
"It can't be helped. We can do whatever we want because we're making money."
"I …"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was dumbfounded.
How could there be such logic?
However, what he said made sense.
It was just like what a joke on the Internet said.
You can do whatever you want with money?
Yes.
That's right. You can do whatever you want with money.
Looking at the group of big bosses present, although they were the leaders of various industries, they were only the leaders of one industry. They couldn't do anything outside of their industry. It wasn't that they didn't have the energy. The key was that they didn't have the money … How could they have so much money to do these businesses?
However, Huanyu Technologies was different.
They had money.
But why did they have money? It was to make online games.
So …
Many big bosses rolled their eyes. Although they knew that Chen Yu was bluffing, it was too tempting.
"By the way, you can ask Boss Ma if you don't believe me. Online games are indeed very profitable."
Chen Yu looked at Ma Huateng.
Back then, Penguin also created an online game called Triumph.
"Indeed."
Ma Huateng nodded and said with certainty.
Although their Triumph failed, it wasn't because online games weren't profitable. On the contrary, it was very profitable in the beginning. It was a pity that they were competing with Huanyu Technologies. Of course, the key was themselves. If they knew more about online games, Penguin might be able to survive for a long time.
"It seems that those of us in e-commerce have to make online games?"
Ma Huateng said at this time.
He felt that this guy was bluffing.
However, Ma Huateng wouldn't be fooled by Chen Yu. He was determined to do e-commerce and didn't want to make online games.
Although online games were very profitable, Ma Huateng would say that in the future, the profitability of e-commerce would be 10 times or 100 times more than online games …
However, this didn't happen. He couldn't refute Chen Yu here.
However, how could Chen Yu continue to bluff?
As the host, he said this in a teasing way.
"Boss Ma, you must be joking. Those in e-commerce shouldn't make online games."
Just now, Chen Yu was thinking about how to bluff Teacher Ma.
He didn't expect Teacher Ma to talk to him directly. Naturally, Chen Yu wouldn't let go of e-commerce.
Speaking of which, the person Chen Yu wanted to bluff the most was Teacher Ma.
The influence of e-commerce was too big. Even if Chen Yu didn't make a portal, he had to enter the e-commerce market. Moreover, Teacher Ma was the most difficult person to deal with here.
"Hehe, Chen Yu, I thought you were going to suggest that we make online games too."
"Boss Ma, you misunderstood. The reason why I suggested to Boss Cao and Boss Zhang to make online games is that portals are naturally compatible with online games. However, e-commerce and online games aren't very compatible. You look at me as if I'm here to bluff everyone. "
Everyone laughed when he said this.
Chen Yu didn't care if they laughed or not.
He might be bluffing, but he also wanted to let the big bosses know that he was bluffing.
Chen Yu was just stating facts, reasoning, and using money to tempt them.
Chen Yu wasn't bluffing or scheming. It was an open conspiracy.
As for whether others would be fooled by him, that would depend on whether they wanted money or not.
"However, seriously, the e-commerce market has a bright future. Huanyu Technologies also wants to enter."
"Of course, that's good."
Ma Huateng clapped and said, "We welcome Huanyu Technologies to join us."
"Thank you, Boss Ma. However, I'm not very optimistic about the C2C model."
"Oh, what do you mean?"
Ma Huateng asked.
Their Taobao was actually C2C.
"It's simple. C2C is consumer to consumer. However, the economic foundation of individual consumers is limited. It's not that they don't have money to buy goods. The problem is that they don't have money to buy computers. "
"That's true."
Ma Huateng nodded.
E-commerce requires one to make purchases online, and in order to make purchases online, one must have a computer.
Although the price of computers had dropped a lot in 2003, ordinary families still couldn't afford them.
"Of course, I'm not talking about buyers, but sellers. Buyers can go to internet cafes if they don't have computers. However, sellers can't do business if they don't have computers. "
The C2C model meant that sellers were also ordinary people.
Although they also wanted to do business, they couldn't do business without computers.
Of course, they could also spend money to buy computers for e-commerce business. However, the initial investment was too high.
All of a sudden, this would definitely limit the number of shops that sellers could open.
"Boss Chen, what model do you think is the most suitable?"
Jack Ma didn't know whether to agree or disagree with Chen Yu.
Although he felt that what Chen Yu said made sense, computers would become more and more popular as time passed and electronic technology developed.
“b2c。”
"Amazon model?"
"Yes."
Chen Yu nodded. "The Amazon model is a very successful e-commerce model. Especially now that computers are not very popular in China, B2C can perfectly solve the computer office problem. "
The B in B2C was a business and also a company.
For a company, it wasn't difficult to buy a computer.
"Moreover, the B2C model can solve the problem of counterfeits in e-commerce. You have to know that there are many consumers on eBay who are complaining that the goods they buy on the e-commerce platform are all fake and inferior products. Of course, there might be a lot of counterfeits on Taobao. "
EBay's model was also C2C.
"Of course, I know that some of them are illegal sellers. However, if we only focus on the C2C model, there will be more and more counterfeits. The higher-ups might not have the energy to crack down on counterfeits for now. Once they do … I'm afraid there will be another reorganization of the internet business. "
What model was China's e-commerce market going to take?
In the early days of e-commerce, many websites were confused and couldn't find the right direction.
Everyone was trying to cross the river by feeling the stones.
8848 was because of the confusion on whether to do B2C or C2C. In the end, the founder, Wang Jundong, left.
Jack Ma didn't really believe in C2C when he started Taobao. He was also trying it out.
Although Taobao was launched and had a certain number of users, the sales were not much.
Up until now, Taobao had only sold 20 million yuan in sales after such a long time.
This wasn't the profit at all. It was the total price of the user's goods.
Because the goods didn't belong to Alibaba, how much they sold had nothing to do with them.
As for the turnover, because Taobao was free, their turnover was negligible.
As for the profit …
Well, not to mention the profit, Taobao was currently losing money.
