Chapter 177

You can say so.

In 2002, the hottest game in the world was not a legend, nor a legendary world, nor a miracle mu, but a chess and card game of the united world.

Lianzhong world, established in 1998, has developed into an online game platform with the largest number of monthly active users in China after several years of development. At this time, you say that some people in the legendary world may not know, and some people in the legendary world may not know, but you say that Lianzhong chess and cards, even friends who occasionally surf the Internet, know.

The business of Lianzhong world is very simple, that is, chess and cards.

Mahjong, fighting landlords, bridge... One kind.

However, although the business of Lianzhong world is simple, it is the most popular among players.

Compared with online games, players basically don't need to be familiar with it, so they can play it.

For example, if you play a landowner, you can operate it in a few seconds with a mouse.

There are many friends who don't like online games. They often play cards in Lianzhong.

Even those who play online games, when they are tired of playing online games, they also like to play cards in Lianzhong.

However, the Internet is changing too fast. When new software such as instant messaging appears, it suddenly brings great challenges to the united world.

Bao Yueqiao, founder of Lianzhong world, visited Penguin not long ago and discussed the intention of cooperation in chess and card games with penguin.

"No."

Li Nan shook his head: "it is said that the two sides have not reached cooperation. Penguin said that they don't like chess and card games, and they won't enter chess and card games."

"No."

Chen Yu said firmly, "penguins can't afford chess and card games. They must be secretly making chess and card games. As for the publicity to the outside world, it's just smoke bombs."

Think of future QQ games, how can penguins not do QQ games?

You know, future QQ games do not know how much contribution they have made to the opening up and expansion of QQ instant messaging.

According to Chen Yu's impressions, the QQ game was launched by Penguin in 2003, when Lianzhong world was still at its peak. By 2006, the number of QQ games online at the same time had reached more than 2.6 million, but Lianzhong world had fallen to only 400000 online at the same time.

Unexpectedly, today's penguins took action a year earlier.

This should be the emergence of their own side, which suddenly disrupted the process of penguin history.

However, whether there is disruption or not, as long as penguins play QQ games, it not only poses a great threat to the united world.

Similarly, for YY, there is also a huge threat.

"Mr. Chen, do you mean that we also play chess and card games?"

"Of course, why not."

Chen Yu said: "chess and card games are the most suitable games for players first. Although our online games are very popular now, this does not mean all Internet users. There are many middle-aged people and many female players. Can they play online games?"

Of course, it's not that middle-aged people and female players don't play online games.

But even if you play, the proportion is very small, far less than male players. Most of what you see are human demons.

Only after the future broadband entered thousands of households, the proportion of female players increased a lot.

But even if it rises a lot, the proportion of female players is still not much.

But if placed in chess and card games, there are many female players and middle-aged players.

Of course, it also includes older players.

In addition, there are office workers in some units. Many units are often idle, and some conditions are good. They are equipped with computers. Of course, it's not for him. It's for business needs. You say you play online games at work. Few people dare. But you said there were a lot of landlords at work.

So many YY users who want to pull but can't pull them all at once are very excited for everyone.

"OK, Mr. Chen, chess and card games are relatively simple and not complex. I'll start preparing immediately."

Although Li Nan didn't think that Chen Yu thought so much at once, she also felt that there were a lot of people playing chess and card games. Moreover, there is no technology in this area. At the same time, the number of registered and online people of YY has reached a certain volume, so it is not difficult to enter it.

However, Chen Yu immediately interrupted Li Nan: "Li Nan, what do you promise to do so soon? Have you figured out how to do this chess and card platform?"

"President Chen, it seems that this platform is not difficult."

"It's certainly not difficult to create a platform. We can get it done quickly by pulling dozens of technicians. However, what I want to ask is that we are engaged in chess and card games, Lianzhong world is also engaged in chess and card games, and penguin is also engaged in chess and card games. How can we surpass them?"

"This..."

Li Nan thought for a while and said, "we have YY instant messaging. As long as we bind chess and cards to YY, I am confident to surpass the united world."

"What about penguins?"

Chen Yu said: "you can think of chess and card binding with YY. Can't Penguin think of chess and card binding with their QQ. Now the number of QQ online at the same time is three times that of us. Although this volume is nothing, it's also extremely terrible. Once this volume goes up, it's difficult for us to catch up if we don't have another way."

In fact, QQ game did not sell destructed opium with ourgame.com.

Although the two are competitors, they really don't have a fight and don't need to fight.

As long as Penguin makes all kinds of chess and card games, relying on the volume of QQ and the so-called binding [your friend is playing cards in QQ games], he will soon surpass Lianzhong world.

However, in the face of a penguin three times the size of YY, why do you surpass them?

Once, they failed to surpass them, even far behind penguins.

Then give Penguin a certain time, and penguin's QQ instant messaging will really be invincible.

This is a battle that must be won.

Unlike before, it doesn't matter that YY hasn't exceeded QQ in terms of the number of active people.

Because there's still a chance.

But if even the chess and card platform loses the move of penguin, it will be quite dangerous.

A new battle has come, and Chen Yu is highly nervous.

"President Chen, I really haven't thought about this one."

Li Nan frowned.

To be a YY chess and card platform is simple, but it is not easy to surpass similar QQ chess and cards.

"I think we can try to dig into the executives of Lianzhong world. They have certain opinions on chess and cards and can give us some help in building a platform in the future."

Think about it, Li Nan said.

"Digging the top executives of Lianzhong world is a good way, but it doesn't work very well. The competition on the Internet is not whether you are professional or not, but whether you have their innovation. For example, our YY, if we follow the same model of QQ, we will die."

"It seems that Netease bubble is similar to QQ?"

"They will die soon."

"Er..."

Li Nan burst into tears.

Do you have such comments on your peers?

"If you want to compete with QQ, it's still our previous strategy, differentiated competition."

With decades of foresight, Chen Yu thought about how to compete with penguins.
