Chapter 059 [Entrepreneurs who love and hate]

"Boss, when will the traffic to Yunge be attracted through social search in blue space? For example, automatically jump to Yunge search and intercept the traffic of whiteness."

Feng Yi said expectantly that the traffic here is also quite terrifying. Blue Space social networking websites have already dominated the real-name social networking field. Tengxun's renren's market share is now only 15%, while Blue Space has exceeded more than 70%. The Matthew effect of the Internet is becoming more and more powerful.

To a certain extent, renren. He can no longer see his opponent's taillights, which can basically be said to be a failure.

Blue Space is no longer benchmarking against renren in China. It is even more impossible to benchmark 51 Space, but QQ. Currently, in the field of Internet social networking, blue space and QQ are evenly matched with QQ. The former is a real-name social overlord, while the latter is a virtual social overlord.

The number of users registered in QQ now has exceeded 200 million, while the number of users registered in Blue Space is 100 million. But the difference is that a QQ user may have many accounts per person. Although users in Blue Space may also have multiple accounts, the meaning is really not great, so it is better to play QQ.

In other words, the average business value of a single user in blue space is much higher than that of a QQ user.

"No, I will never let Blue Space do this. Don't think about doing something that 'helps' users make choices. Once this is done, users will develop a natural resistance and will hate it."

Luo Sheng decisively rejected Feng Yi's idea and added:

"Blue space is still in its growth stage, so don't make any decisions on it. If you do this, it will not become a social networking website that people say they like, and will even hate cloud song searches that "hate the house and the wuwu"."

A core member of the project development team at the meeting said: "But, why can hao123 do that?"

Luo Sheng smiled and said, "Why? Because hao123 is aimed at novices and basically doesn't know anything. At this time, you can guide these users, but those who play in blue space can be considered old networms, and the main force is still young college students."

Another participant said: "But the problem is something I am more worried about. This time we intercepted the search requests for hao123's Baidu Google and other searches. If competitors retaliately, they also intercepted the search in blue space..."

Luo Sheng said without waiting for him to finish his words: "This is impossible. Unless Baidu Google's decision makers are stuck in their brains, they will do this stupid thing. I can't ask for anything. It's no different to give Yunge Search a god assist."

At this time, Yu Jun added in agreement, saying: "I also agree with Mr. Luo's point of view. Mr. Li would not do this. This is tantamount to drinking poison to quench thirst. If you really do this, the growth and activity of the blue space will definitely be greatly affected, but this fluctuation is also short-term, but it will usher in a trough period and then rise against the trend. At the same time, cloud song search may surpass the whiteness."

"Because the blow to user experience is too heavy, it is the same as Mr. Luo who disagrees with sacrificing the user experience of the blue space to attract traffic to Yunge Search. Baidu has brought incredible profits due to the bidding ranking. It is also a great criticism. If you do this, it would be a reason to give users more sufficient reasons to abandon Baidu and instead invest in Yunge Search or Google's arms."

It is hard to say that blue space is abroad, but the mainland has become popular. If there are still a user below tens of millions of users, Bai Du can still take this risk by gritting his teeth.

But if you do this now, you will definitely dig your own grave, unless the search engine market is already the only one in Baidu. However, the domestic search engine market is still in a situation of a melee between the "Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period".

After a moment, Luo Sheng spoke again: "The hao123 navigation needs to continue to consolidate, mainly Internet cafes. This offline traffic cannot be ignored. I believe that many people in the industry are already secretly building their own navigation websites, especially companies or teams that want to be search engines. Navigation websites are an indispensable standard, and even if they are useless, they must have it. hao123 occupies the strength of the dominant level. If the new navigation website wants to open a gap, Internet cafes are a breakthrough that cannot be ignored."

There are only more than 30 million Internet-based machines in the country, but they can create hundreds of millions of Internet users. Internet cafes that spring up like mushrooms after a rain are one of the core contributors, and hao123 is almost the standard configuration of Internet cafes, and competitors cannot ignore this point.

Luo Sheng knew even more that this generation of Internet users has a close connection with Internet cafes. In other words, this generation of Internet users, including the next generation, have entered the world of the Internet through Internet cafes.

Although they are all aiming to play games, even if they play games, they can find strategies and other products. Search engines are definitely products that they need to use.

"I am ahead. Now our competitors must be very uncomfortable. If we don't want to be uncomfortable, we must take the initiative. We cannot wait until our competitors' offline traffic entrances make rapid progress before we realize that we must react. This money must be burned, and it must be burned in advance." Luo Sheng said unswervingly.

I thought about going with my competitors. This may be the first time in the history of the domestic Internet to start a money-burning war for offline traffic entrances. It was a full ten years ahead of schedule. Now online traffic is a blue ocean. Who can spend money offline to find traffic if you have anything to do?

But search engines are different, and the situation is different now. Luo Sheng's appearance has changed a lot, and will change more in the future.

It can be foreseen that Internet cafe owners across the country can make an extra fortune. Originally, Internet cafes used hao123 navigation website to give users who are not good at surfing the Internet better experience online, thereby bringing better business.

"How much money is going to be used to consolidate the offline traffic entrance?" Yu Jun looked at Luo Sheng, who said, "Let me think about it... the temporary budget is 50 million, which should be able to last for about half a year. The investment here is continuous, because Internet cafes across the country will continue to expand."

Feng Yi and others couldn't help but smash their tongues when they heard this. Luo Sheng paid him an annual salary of less than 200,000 yuan, but he was unambiguous when spending money. Investors felt very distressed when they saw it.

Fortunately, the VC is not present now, so I can only wait until the audit finance is delivered to them and then it hurts again.

From this perspective, Yunge Search is definitely a big money-burning player in the company. Fortunately, hao123. The monthly turnover can bring millions of revenue. With the continuous growth of users across the country, the traffic of hao123 will also increase, which will also lead to a surge in traffic monetization. In another year, hao123 may bring tens of millions of revenue per month.

The income here can also make up for the huge continuous losses of Yunge Search to a certain extent, and play a lot of role in stopping bleeding.

If Luo Sheng is asked to talk to Li Xinping again, he will definitely not be able to buy hao123 if he pays 30 million. Even if he costs 100 million, the other party may not be able to sell it.

Luo Sheng estimated that the 600 million yuan round of financing, George Charles took away $20 million in North America's expansion, and spent 30 million yuan to acquire Hao123. He decided to spend another 50 million yuan, plus the company's operating costs, and the company will be moved to Sucheng soon, and this time he will rent an office building as the company's headquarters.

In less than three months, Luo Sheng spent about half of the 600 million raised in the A-round financing.

This time, Bluestar Technology submitted its fourth financial expenditure list, which will definitely make several major VPNs feel pain and happiness. It is definitely the kind that loves and hates Luo Sheng.
