Chapter 1504

Great!

No one here is a fool. After hearing Xiaoqi's words, they understand that no wonder Baidu's charge is so cheap. The feeling is that people have thought of a new profit model.

It is to build the whole film and television base into a large amusement park, and the crew and stars in their hands are the game facilities in the amusement park, which are used to attract tourists. These tourists are the place where Baidu really makes money, and they make more money than charging fees alone.

At the end of the party, Xiao Qi announced that the film and television base was officially opened to the outside world from the next day. And Xiao Qi also revealed that now the film crew of the romance of the Three Kingdoms is shooting in the film and Television City, and all the stars are in it.

As a result, when the film and Television City opened the next day, the door was completely blocked and exploded. More than 50000 tourists swarmed in one day, and in the next few days, the average number of tourists per day was more than 20000. This is absolutely the data that can be superior to the national scenic spots in the whole 99 years.

Apart from the Forbidden City, terracotta warriors and horses and a few scenic spots of the Great Wall, there is no place that can surpass the film and television base.

Just when people all over the country were curious about the sudden magic capital film and Television City, at the Microsoft headquarters in Washington state, a group of people looked at the data in their hands, their faces were blue, and their bodies even trembled.

These people are Microsoft executives, and they are holding the MSN and QQ user growth report. From their expressions, it is obvious that the figures in this report are somewhat unsatisfactory.

Or rather unsatisfactory.

"How could it be so different? There is a gap of eight million people. Tell me how it came out!" Bill Gates asked his executives trembling.

According to the survey report, at this time, the total number of global users of QQ has reached 30 million, while the number of global users of MSN is only 22 million.

In fact, these two numbers are already very great. After all, the total number of network users in the world at this time is only about 100 million, which is equivalent to that one of every two Internet users has QQ or MSN installed in their computers.

If you calculate the installation amount last year, you will find that the number of users of QQ and MSN has more than doubled in seven months. This growth rate is really terrible. If it were not for this bet, the staff responsible for MSN project would be rewarded.

But with QQ as a reference, the success of MSN is not successful.

The original number of users of QQ is 3 million more than that of MSN. That is to say, in seven months, in terms of increasing the number of users, QQ will increase 5 million more users than MSN.

Now it is only five months before the final gambling deadline. It is so difficult and almost impossible to make up the 5 million gap in five months.

So Bill Gates is angry. If he loses, Microsoft's loss is unimaginable.

Don't think that losing is just a loss of face. If you lose, you may lose the whole instant messaging software market.

Through these seven months of development, everyone at Microsoft and even all over the Internet has realized how important instant messaging software is for the network.

In an interview, Huang, President of 51 search, directly said that instant messaging software is the next 51 search. If an instant messaging software can occupy the dominant position in the market.

Once the software is listed, the market value will not be much lower than 51 search.

This makes Microsoft even more puzzled about the failure of MSN. After all, the market value of 51 search is only lower than that of Microsoft. If the future market value of MSN is the same as that of 51 search, can't Microsoft double its market value?

Thinking of this, the whole Microsoft is determined to help MSN up. As long as we kill QQ, MSN can dominate the world.

But when the report came out, the whole Microsoft was silent.

"Chairman, I think the survey data in this report is inaccurate. The situation is far less exaggerated than that in the report!" a senior executive stood up and said loudly.

"Oh!" the expression on Bill Gates's face looks much better. Yes, Microsoft fully supports MSN. It spent tens of millions of dollars on advertising and marketing alone. How could it lose to QQ? This must be the inaccurate survey data.

After all, any survey is only based on a small number of samples, and it is normal that there will be errors in the survey.

"Chairman, I studied this survey report and found that their surveys were conducted in the United States. Most of the more than 1000 samples were American. But we calculated the installation volume of the world. In this way, the data of a single country is absolutely unstable, so the survey data does not count."

"That's reasonable!" Bill Gates and others nodded one after another. Yes, people who have studied statistics know that global data should of course be investigated on a global scale. The data of only the United States is inaccurate, and the survey results do not count.

However, they seem to have forgotten that MSN, as a local enterprise in the United States, actually lags behind the data of 8 million in the survey and calculation in the United States. If it is investigated globally, should it lag more.

Of course, these elites are not unexpected, just the situation in their eyes. They are not allowed to think about this. They want to be an ostrich.

"So when we finally compare, how is this data calculated?" an executive asked curiously.

It is obviously unrealistic to determine the final result through the questionnaire. After all, there is too much room for cheating. After losing, either party will never admit the result.

"The final result is supervised and published by the world computer federation!" an MSN executive explained. "After making an agreement, the World Computer Federation will send representatives to the control room of MSN and QQ respectively to monitor all the data, and summarize the background data on the last day for comparison."

"In order to ensure fairness, the World Computer Federation will send 10 representatives from different countries to each family, and it will take effect only after 10 representatives sign unanimously. At the same time, data backup will be carried out throughout the supervision process. From a professional point of view, the probability of cheating is very small, and the probability is no more than 1%."

"Can we get the data from QQ now?"

"It's very difficult. It's not allowed to publish the data in advance. The data is written in the contract. Those representatives also have no right to contact the outside world. It's very difficult for us to get each other's data!"

"That is to say, before October 1, none of us can get the accurate data of the other party, and the result can only come out on October 1!"

"Yes"
