Rebirth of the Cyber ​​Hegemony

Before Friends.com, Chen Yu kept Wang Chang in charge.

But now, Chen Yu will take charge personally.

He had to quickly expand his network of friends and surpass Facebook in one fell swoop.

Of course, surpassing Facebook is not the goal.

The social network that Chen Yu wants to do is to spread all over the world.

……

"Wang Chang, I will come to the United States tomorrow."

"Mr. Chen, are you coming to the United States?"

"Ah."

"Travel or?"

"How can I be in the mood to travel? That John came to me and said that our friend's valuation is only 5 million US dollars. I was not very happy, so I had to come here in person."

"Mr. Chen, I..."

Wang Chang was a little embarrassed when he received Chen Yu's call.

Looking at Huanyu Technology, the performance of the business she is responsible for is average.

"Well, I'm not here to blame you. We started social networking later than Facebook, and we're not fighting locally. Of course, we won't be able to overtake Facebook for a while. However, although we started late, as long as we use the right strategy , is not impossible.”

"That's it, see you tomorrow."

Without further ado, Chen Yu made arrangements at the headquarters and set off for the United States.

Speaking of the United States, this is the first time for Chen Yu to come here.

However, although Chen Yu came for the first time, Wang Chang and other American teams had already greeted Chen Yu at the airport after he settled down.

When Chen Yu walked into the friend network in the United States, which is the branch of Huanyu Technology, Chen Yu looked it up, and then said: "It looks pretty good, at least it looks decent."

"Mr. Chen, when we first arrived in the United States, we were not familiar with it at all. We also encountered a series of troubles in starting our business. Fortunately, we have become familiar with it during this period of time. We have recruited many industry elites here. Our Business development is on the right track."

Seeing Chen Yu's smiling face, Wang Chang breathed a sigh of relief.

She used to think that Chen Yu thought she was incompetent.

"Mr. Chen, I have already arranged a hotel for you. You just came to the United States, so take a rest first."

"It's okay, I've already rested on the plane, and I'll go to the hotel after identifying someone."

"Row."

On the first day in the United States, Chen Yu didn't have much plans.

After getting acquainted with the company employees, Chen Yu returned to the hotel.

Although he had rested on the plane, there was still jet lag after all, and Chen Yu had to get used to it for a few days.

After almost three days, Chen Yu was able to adapt to the jet lag, so he held a company meeting.

However, Chen Yu held a company meeting and did not directly mention the company's specific arrangements and corresponding strategies.

Chen Yu put aside an Internet topic.

This topic made everyone talk freely.

Everyone knows a lot about the Internet.

The heads of various departments also successively expounded their views on the Internet.

Some people think that the reason why the Internet is fascinating is that the Internet is virtual, and everyone can go online to do whatever they want.

Some people also say that the Internet provides convenient communication conditions, so there are social networks, instant messaging, search engines... and so on.

Chen Yu recognized all of these.

From their answers, Chen Yu also saw that they all had a good understanding of the Internet.

It is precisely because of their understanding of the Internet that they have always performed well on Friends.com.

Although Chen Yu was not particularly satisfied, it was from his point of view.

For them who haven't cheated and can't predict the future, they have actually done a great job.

"Next, we have a formal meeting."

Sitting in the middle, Chen Yu said, "Wang Chang, tell me about the current situation of our Friends Network."

"Mr. Chen, Youyou.com is a social network based on student groups. At present, the number of registered users has exceeded 3000 million, but there is still a gap from Facebook. Our current goal is to continue to expand the student group and strive to connect global universities, And high school students join forces to make the world's largest social networking site for student groups..."

If it was before, Chen Yu would approve of Wang Chang's approach.

But now, Chen Yu shook his head and said, "The student group is too small. To make it bigger, everyone in the world must be absorbed."

"Mr. Chen, we have also considered it. When we finish all the student groups around the world, it will be open to the public."

"But there is another problem. What about student groups' opposition?"

Chen Yu asked back.

You know, Facebook at the time was opposed by the student community in this way.

They first used Harvard University as the main website, and then slowly moved to other universities.

After almost finishing a series of college student groups, they thought of expanding to the general public.

But unfortunately, a group of students have always opposed it, thinking that Facebook should not be promoted to the public.

To this end, Friends.com also took the opportunity to launch at this time.

Although the strategy seemed successful at the time.

Friends network up, Facebook is also restricted.

But now, because it was only targeted at playing with the student group at the beginning, the friend network is also restricted.

If Friends.com wants to expand at this time, then he will definitely be resisted by the student community just like Facebook.

Moreover, Friends.com was advertising at that time, and they were only for students.

If this is extended to society, it will become a joke.

"For the time being, we haven't considered the latter."

Wang Chang obviously didn't consider how to reverse the concept of students group rest.

In other words, now is not the time.

The main task now is to expand the market and include all student groups around the world into the entire website.

"I think that's our number one consideration."

Chen Yu shook his head: "At present, Facebook has almost completed the layout of global colleges and universities, and we have only completed half of it. Sooner or later, we will face the same problem as Facebook, facing the problem of expanding positioning. If we can't get it right now, wait until we successfully deploy all colleges and universities. , then the resistance we will encounter will be even greater. Just like Facebook, they now have some who don’t know how to break through.”

The last time Facebook was resisted by a group of students, it has also been seriously injured.

They want to expand users, but they are afraid that the student group will resist again.

You know, the last time a group of students resisted, then Friends.com became a success.

Come again, maybe Friends.com can catch up with them one step faster.

"Mr. Chen, we conducted a survey and found that it is very difficult for the student community to accept social users. They think that friends.com should only be students like them."

Deputy General Manager Xu Anhua said.

She's been thinking about it all the time.

If you don't expand the user base, then Friends.com will be the number one in the world, and its users will be those people.

He's only for students, he's not really social.

In real social life, he needs not only students, but also all kinds of people living on the earth.

Only in this way can the entire social interaction continue to be layered and show greater charm.

"Then what if they invite other friends to join?"

"We tried and they only invited groups who were students like them."

"If we change the method and replace this kind of invitation with a game, and invite friends to join through the game, what do you think..."

There are always more ways than difficulties.

Facebook in the previous life can solve the positioning of the student group, and Chen Yu can do the same.

And his way is through games.

However, his game is not that kind of big game, but that kind of small game.

Chapter 708: Global Chip Development Seminar

"I have a game plan here, everyone can take a look."

Chen Yu took out a game plan.

"Steal food?"

Looking at this game plan, Wang Chang was a little confused.

She has always believed that Huanyu Technology's game research and development capabilities are very strong, and it has produced various awesome games.

Of course, even small games are well developed.

When Chen Yu talked about the game, Wang Chang was actually looking forward to it.

Although Chen Yu is not very in charge of the game department now, the entire company knows that Chen Yu is the top game expert in the company.

However, when Chen Yu laid out this game plan, Wang Chang was a little silly.

What game is this?

Isn't it too simple.

It doesn't seem like there's any fun way to play this game either.

It is to buy seeds, pour chemical fertilizers, grow vegetables, and then steal vegetables.

Although Wang Chang doesn't like that kind of PK killing game, she also doesn't like this kind of extremely boring game.

"Mr. Chen, isn't this game too simple?"

The whole game setting is very simple, and Wang Chang finished watching it in ten minutes.

After reading it, Wang Chang didn't know how to comment.

If he didn't say that Chen Yu came up with this plan, he really wondered if it was made by a small game planner.

"Of course it's simple, if it's too complicated, people won't play it."

In fact, the game market is huge.

Online games are not the most attractive to players.

After all, although online games are fun, they actually have certain thresholds.

For example, if he wants to download a relatively large client, he also has a relatively large demand for broadband.

At the same time, he has to spend a lot of time.

Plus every game takes a while to learn before you discover how this one works.

Therefore, not everyone likes to play the kind of game that fights monsters and upgrades.

But if it is a simpler game, relatively speaking, he can attract more players.

Such as fighting the landlord.

He does look ordinary, but there are definitely more people who have played Doudizhu than online games.

What Chen Yu needs is not that kind of online game player, what he needs is to promote this kind of small game to the public across the country.

Stealing food is the most suitable.

It's just that Chen Yu thinks it's suitable, but obviously Wang Chang and the others don't think so.

Not only Wang Chang, but also some employees in the United States are not optimistic about this game.
