"Li Nan, I know you're interested in the overseas market. What is it?"
Chen Yu wasn't surprised that Li Nan stood up. Instead, he smiled and spoke.
Instant messaging was something that Chen Yu valued very much. Of course, he would consider it.
"Boss Chen, instant messaging has a natural advantage. We don't need to develop any internet business, but instant messaging is a necessity. If we control instant messaging, we control the flow of traffic. Currently, our YY is already profitable. We have to thank Zou Bo … "
Li Nan nodded at Zou Tao as he spoke.
Zou Tao waved his hand as if to say, "Don't even think about it."
Li Nan continued, "We estimate that the growth rate will increase by more than 30% every year in the future. ICQ in the North American market is gradually losing ground to other instant messaging platforms. At the same time, the North American market is affected by email. They don't rely on instant messaging as much as we do in China. It's not expensive for them to switch to an instant messaging platform. We can use this as an entry point. "
Li Nan had already considered using instant messaging.
Even if this conference didn't happen, Li Nan would have considered it in the future.
That was normal.
Once the domestic instant messaging market was stabilized, it was time to conquer the world.
"At the same time, since instant messaging can create an ecosystem, we can launch a portal through instant messaging. We can launch YY Space through instant messaging. We can even enter the online gaming industry through instant messaging. If we succeed in creating instant messaging, we can enter any area of the internet. Including e-commerce … "
Li Nan looked at Huang Zheng as he spoke.
Huang Zheng's eyelids twitched.
He knew that Li Nan wasn't bragging at all.
If YY Instant Messaging really entered the e-commerce industry, it would bring huge competition to Huanyu Mall.
Don't think that it's impossible.
If it was another company, it might not be possible.
However, Huanyu Technologies was different.
Boss Chen had always been in favor of horse racing. At the same time, many people in Huanyu Technologies were selected through horse racing. Also, Huanyu Technologies was getting bigger and bigger. In the future, after they controlled the market, they would definitely adopt horse racing.
Huang Zheng's heart sank when he thought about this.
He felt that there was no chance for him to venture into e-commerce for the time being.
Boss Chen will never let you go out to sea until the internal situation is completely stabilized.
"Li Nan, it seems like you've really made preparations here."
Chen Yu led the applause.
Li Nan's idea was exactly the same as Chen Yu's idea of instant messaging.
At that time, he wanted to use instant messaging to create a perfect ecological chain.
But later on, Chen Yu also learned about the drawbacks.
Building an ecosystem based on instant communication seemed perfect, but it would follow the path of the penguins in his previous life.
It seemed that Penguin did everything: portals, blogs, Weibo, e-commerce … But apart from instant messaging, none of them were good.
Only online games were slightly better.
Even the current YY was not as good as Sina in terms of portals.
It was only after launching a blog that Huanyu Gateway was able to withstand the pressure from Sina.
This was not a problem with Li Nan's ability.
It was precisely this model's problem.
Once they focused on YY, then Li Nan and the others would value YY the most in the future.
The center of their circle would also be YY.
In Li Nan's mind, the first thing he thought of was that even if the other businesses died, YY was fine as long as it did not.
At the same time, even if the other businesses were not good, as long as he made YY bigger and stronger, it would be better than anything else.
With YY's powerful traffic, he could tear a hole in any Internet industry.
This kind of thinking was not bad, but in terms of innovation in the other businesses, it was probably not good.
Penguin in his previous life also proved this point.
Penguin's strongest point was instant messaging.
So their QQ could be turned into WeChat.
But Penguin's other businesses were really ordinary.
Fortunately, he came to his senses and became more open.
That was why he invested in Jingdong, Meituan … and so on.
It was precisely because of this that Chen Yu had basically allowed Li Nan to only be in charge of YY's operations.
Even if it was Huanyu Gateway, Chen Yu also let him be independent and not rely too much on YY.
"Okay, Li Nan, sit down first."
Chen Yu nodded and did not say anything.
However, this lack of expression made everyone feel that Chen Yu was probably personally involved in YY this time.
At the same time, when they thought about how Li Nan's instant messaging defeated Penguin, Mobile, and even Microsoft in the domestic market … Everyone was even more certain that there was not much suspense.
After Li Nan, Wang Xiaochuan also stood up and expressed his intention to go out to sea to Chen Yu.
However, although Wang Xiaochuan spoke passionately, everyone knew that.
The search engine had not been done in the domestic market, yet he wanted to go overseas.
Of course, Chen Yu was extremely encouraging to Wang Xiaochuan and said, "Xiaochuan, it's not the right time for the search engine to go out to sea. However, I have always been supportive of you. In the future, at another time and from another angle, I believe that our search engine will definitely be able to compete with Google on the world stage. "
This was not much comfort.
After the emergence of the mobile Internet in the future, the search engine would make waves again.
"Who else is interested in going out to sea?"
After the representatives of the various subsidiaries of Huanyu Technologies expressed their opinions, Chen Yu looked at everyone and asked again.
"Boss Chen, we are also interested in going out to sea."
To Chen Yu's surprise.
This time, the person who spoke was the person in charge of online literature.
"No way, we're going out to sea too."
Everyone was dumbfounded.
They really did not expect that online literature would also be going out to sea.
"What's going on?"
"Is the Internet going out to sea too?"
"Are we letting foreigners watch the Internet?"
"Is this okay?"
Although the online literature business was a large business of Huanyu Technologies, this business should be the one with the smallest output.
The other businesses were often tens of billions. At present, the scale of online literature was only a few hundred million, and billions at most.
Therefore, when they heard that online literature was going out to sea, everyone was a little dumbfounded.
They were dumbfounded not because they were mocking, but because it was too shocking.
However, Chen Yu was the first to approve this.
"I think the idea of going out to sea is a good idea."
"Although the scale of online literature is not big now, its impact can't be ignored at all. We Chinese like to read online literature. Don't foreigners like it too? I think we can try this … I approve this. "
Chen Yu specially approved the idea of going out to sea and said that the headquarters would give a certain amount of support.
Of course, this was not nonsense.
In the future, as the influence of online literature became more and more terrifying, he really went out to sea.
Many online translations were made into foreign languages, and a group of foreign friends read the Internet with great interest.
It was said that they also understood what the Neidan was, what the Dao was, and what Yin and Yang were through the Internet.
There were also some addicts who read the Internet in China and even gave up a series of bad habits.
What was even more amazing was that a group of foreign guys also joined the online literature writing army after reading the Internet in China. Countless works that imitated the Chinese Internet appeared.
Did you think no one would read this?
No.
As soon as the "Imaginary War" written by a young man from the United States was released, it welcomed the love of countless readers.
Not to mention anything else, just the dissemination of Chinese culture was worth promoting.
"Oh my god … this is possible."
This was something that no one had expected.
They did not expect that Boss Chen would specially approve the idea of going out to sea.
All of a sudden, everyone could not help but have an idea. If online literature could go out to sea, they might be able to do it if they started a smaller business.
However, looking at everyone's expressions, Chen Yu immediately said, "This is just a special case for online literature. There is no such treatment for other businesses."
As soon as he said this, everyone obediently shut their mouths.
Going out to sea with online literature was just a special case. Its scale was not large, and even if it was supported, it would not require much money.
This was also the reason why Chen Yu could specially agree.
"Boss Chen, actually, we are also very interested in the overseas market."
At this moment, Li Xuelin, who was sitting in the back row, said weakly.
Li Xuelin was in charge of the Huanyu Gateway, which was the portal business.
In terms of rank, Li Xuelin was initially at the level of P7 in Huanyu Technologies. At that time, it was still in the instant communication department.
That was Li Nan's responsibility.
However, later on, when Chen Yu made Huanyu Gateway independent, Li Xuelin also mentioned the P8.
However, although it was a P8 position, compared to Li Nan, Zou Tao, Huang Zheng … there was still a big gap.
Compared to big shots like Li Nan, Li Xuelin naturally did not have much confidence.
However, Li Xuelin still wanted to fight for himself.
"Xuelin, what are you thinking? Don't tell me you want to compete with Yahoo?"
Chen Yu did not think too much about it.
Chen Yu had always thought highly of Li Xuelin.
In the early years, Li Xuelin was a portal at NetEase. He was also an elite that Chen Yu had poached from NetEase.
In his previous life, Li Xuelin was the founder of YY.
Although Chen Yu's YY was completely different from the YY in his previous life, it was more or less influenced by Li Xuelin.
Chen Yu actually thought about transferring Li Xuelin to the P9 position.
However, considering that although Li Xuelin was doing well in the portal business, he was not the best in the industry. Therefore, Chen Yu put him aside for now.
"This …"
When Chen Yu mentioned Yahoo, Li Xuelin felt a little awkward.
Currently, the most influential web portal was Yahoo.
Huanyu Gateway could not even pull down Sina. It was too difficult for them to compete with Yahoo in the global market.
"Boss Chen, I'm interested in the overseas market, not portals."
"If it's not portals, then what is it?"
"Video."
Surprisingly, Li Xuelin suddenly mentioned a business that did not seem to be related to portals.
However, when it came to video, Chen Yu's eyes lit up.
When Li Nan was in charge of instant messaging, Chen Yu did not decide. In fact, it was not the best opportunity for instant messaging to enter the global market. Therefore, Chen Yu was still thinking about it.
However, when Li Xuelin mentioned video, Chen Yu had an idea. However, Chen Yu did not reveal anything. He continued to ask, "Xuelin, why did you think of video?"
"With the popularity of broadband in China, the online video business has started to develop. Currently, there are dozens of video websites in China. Among them, Tudou has the best performance. However, although broadband is becoming more and more popular in China, the network in many areas is still lagging. Therefore, the online video business should not have a big impact for the time being. On the other hand, Youtobe is gradually showing its potential overseas. At the same time, according to the survey data on WeChat, more and more users are starting to share videos instead of pictures. "
"Continue."
"Although we have not entered the video business, I think making videos is the same as making content. Whether or not a video website could attract people did not depend on whether or not he had created the website first, but on the quality of the video content. This was the same principle as portal websites. Although Youtobe is doing well, they are still lacking in terms of content. At the same time, Youtobe is also doing very poorly in terms of community. "
"Xuelin, are you thinking of using the Godly Review from the portal news into videos?"
Chen Yu looked at Li Xuelin with great interest.
This Li Xuelin was simply beyond his imagination.
"Yes, Boss Chen. That is indeed the idea."
Li Xuelin nodded.
This was actually a community concept.
The traditional community was instant messaging.
Then, there was the most novel thing now, WeChat.
However, other than instant messaging and WeChat, YY Music, and Huanyu Gateway's community concept were also very novel.
"What about video content?"
Chen Yu continued to ask.
"For video content, I want to use the way we operate our blogs."
Although Li Xuelin's level was not particularly high, he was clearly well-prepared for this.
Although he was not very confident that Chen Yu would approve of his video business, if he missed this opportunity, there would not be another one in the future.
"Every blog is equivalent to a self-media outlet. I think every video producer is also equivalent to a self-media outlet. But currently, Youtobe's main focus is on comedy and video editing. This greatly limits the user's creativity. I think we can spend more energy on creating video content. Once the content is successfully created, we can completely overtake Youtobe. "
Li Xuelin clenched his fist and looked at Chen Yu.
He knew that this was the time to gain Boss Chen's approval.
However, when he saw that Chen Yu still had no reaction, Li Xuelin braced himself and said, "Youtobe was established in January 2005. In three months, its valuation exceeded 100 million USD. In half a year, it exceeded 2 billion USD. Some experts estimate that Youtobe's valuation will exceed 5 billion USD by the end of the year."
When Chen Yu heard this, he almost laughed out loud.
This guy.
He obviously knows that I want to go abroad to make money.
Of course, other people knew this as well.
What do you mean by going out to sea? Going out to sea is fake, and making money is real.
Of course, going abroad to make money was also a real possibility.
Youtobe had been established for half a year and its performance was already so impressive. It was ranked second on WeChat.
If Huanyu Technologies made a strong move, there would be a huge opportunity for Youtobe.
"Well, Xuelin, you've done a lot of research on Youtobe. Sit down first."
Chen Yu resisted the urge to beat Li Xuelin up. He asked Li Xuelin to sit down first.
As for whether to choose the video business, Chen Yu would have to go back and do some research.
How much money could be made from the video business was a problem.
