256. Resistance

On the 4th, Cheng Xuyuan noticed that the Nokia version of Penguin WeChat has been repaired and showed an extremely fierce growth.

This news is nothing new to WeChat, it only depends on whether it arrives early or late.

Of course, if the two companies maintain the same user growth rate, the penguin will never catch up. Especially now that WeChat's monthly growth rate has reached tens of millions, it will not be a short time for the penguin to catch up.

It would take at least several months, he shrugged his shoulders and walked towards the road boat.

"Brother, several groups in Singapore have been tested. No problem, you can release it step by step now."

Lu Zhou looked up at Cheng Xuyuan, "Have you finished Apple's process?"

Cheng Xuyuan held his hands in front of his chest, "For a long time, the test of the Singapore server was launched at that time, but it was not open to the public. Now the troublesome checkpoints are the problems of telecommunications service providers. One is delay and the other is text messages."

Luzhou, "Mengguyun's initial plan in Singapore should only have two international dedicated lines, one from Singapore to Bangkok and the other from Jakarta. This has the problem of cost restrictions. If it is not too serious, just do this first, and then adjust it based on the actual micro-information growth of various countries."

Cheng Xuyuan had to nodded helplessly after hearing this, "Please force it. If you use voice calls, you will feel a little delayed. The problem of text messages is quite troublesome. Meng Guyun had previously connected with a service provider with integrated solutions in Singapore, but the number was actually a bit limited. The monthly number was less than 10 million."

Lu Zhou pursed his lips. SMS services are required just to register and log in, and the number of users that these tens of millions of items may only be one-quarter.

Cheng Xuyuan continued, "February Mengguyun Singapore is already communicating with various telecommunications companies, but there are only three things that have made progress in feedback, including Thailand, Malaysia and Indonesia. Malaysia has not yet provided an interface, and the other two countries are Mengguyun after integration can be used."

That was really a bit skinny. Lu Zhou sighed.

"Troubleshooting one by one, Meng Guyun solved which one to which one."

After saying that, Lu Zhou fell into deep thought again, wondering if his step was considered a bad move.

The choice was started in Singapore, which was subject to Phaeton's overseas business capabilities. Only the United States and Singapore were available, which seemed to save time.

But the facts prove that Phaeton's overseas expansion is mostly customer needs rather than its own needs. The problem we are facing is obviously that Phaeton's overseas business has never touched.

Mengguyun used nearly 200 million yuan to acquire Huiteng, Guangnan Data Center would invest 400 million yuan within two years, and Singapore allocated another 100 million yuan. This would account for 70% of the B round of financing.

At this point, the remaining 300 million has not been fully received. This is also the reason why Lu Zhou can only choose one of the two in Singapore and the United States.

Now, Song Wenhui, the United States, has asked Yuan Huiteng’s staff to connect with some work, and can operate it only after the capital is invested.

So, next is Europe, East Asia, South Asia, Africa or Latin America?

In the long run, it doesn’t matter, but in the short term, you have to rely on Mengguyun’s revenue to support it, and the time cost will be much higher.

To be more tough, it is Europe and the United States first. After all, developed countries have high smartphone penetration rates, but the corresponding operating costs are much higher, and there are also local competitors.

If you farm, Asia, Africa, Latin America will be able to continue to farm. You will not have too strong opponents. You will basically push them all the way, but the corresponding supporting facilities are not as satisfying as the communication cost is high.

"You go and arrange it first, I'll go up and talk to Lao Song."

Cheng Xuyuan nodded and returned to the WeChat team, while Lu Zhou came to Mengguyun upstairs again.

"Brother Song." Lu Zhou knocked on the door twice and entered.

Song Wenhui's secretary is not surprised outside.

Song Wenhui raised his hand and signaled Lu Zhou to wait, and then continued to communicate with the other end of the phone in English.

Five minutes later, seeing Song Wenhui hanging up the phone, Lu Zhou asked, "What, the problem with Malay Telecom?"

Song Wenhui smiled awkwardly, "The other party needs us to go through some cross-border business procedures. After all, our operating entities in Malaysia are still following the process."

Lu Zhou didn't doubt it after hearing this, because the communication cost of cross-border business was really there.

He believed that if Song Wenhui was there, he would definitely be able to solve the problem quickly, but now there are many affairs in Guangnan data center, and Song Wenhui is also unable to do anything.

Song Wenhui continued, "That's what Phaeton has. The amount of Phaeton's cross-border business is very small, so it's hard to say how professional the team is. After this, I will set up a special overseas affairs department to deal with these issues.

Then I will go to various country offices or companies, and I will put the corresponding management system on the agenda."

Lu Zhou nodded. In fact, time was too tight, so he didn't have much to say.

"Brother Song, you arranged this. I came up to confirm something. If you want to expand an overseas node, where do you think it is suitable? Of course, it will only be available for WeChat services in a short period of time."

Song Wenhui was stunned, "It's too nervous. Not to mention time, the funds are too tight. Just imagine, if the number of WeChat users in Southeast Asia surges this time, you have to think clearly that you have to continue to add funds.

Eastern Eastern is still following the process. If one more is added, the pressure will be too great. Mengguyun's current revenue is not enough to support such expansion."

When it comes to money, I hate that I am not going to use it. Lu Zhou also understands the truth in the middle. Regarding this, the directors of Index Capital also have many complaints, even though Lu Zhou doesn't take it seriously.

Seeing that Song Wenhui had also poured cold water, Lu Zhou had to ask Wen Xuwei about the situation, "Can the domestic server invested last month be operated normally now?"

Song Wenhui nodded, "Xuwei reported this yesterday and will be able to supply computing power to the market tomorrow."

Hope it was good news, Lu Zhou wiped his face.

"But this year, Industry and Information Technology has successively carried out some actions on filing issues. In response to this issue, Mengguyun also reached the bottleneck of business processing in the early stage by manually handling it.

I just mentioned this matter to Xu Wei. Recently, I will arrange for the manpower and the industry and information department to negotiate a plan that both parties can accept. This is not acceptable."

Lu Zhou, "That's really... let's cooperate. If you don't have time to make a transition plan. If you have any business license problem, Phaeton's previous department will mobilize it to solve the problems in the Menggu ecology first."

Song Wenhui nodded, "Well. In fact, the enforcement is not accessible without registration. This is not a problem for Meng Guyun. It just means that one knife will affect the business too much."

Lu Zhou thought about it and gave up. What Song Wenhui said was not without reason. Not to mention the domestic situation, let alone the overseas nodes.
