Rebirth of the Evil Life

After Lin Feng and Liu Yingying negotiated overnight, an emergency meeting was held the next day.

At the meeting, Lin Feng announced that Liu Yingying became the second shareholder of the company, holding 10% of the company's shares, and split the existing marketing and sales into a planning department and a marketing department. The planning department was headed by Liu Yingying, and the marketing department was headed by Su Xiaomei. Under the jurisdiction of Liu Yingying. Shift the focus of work from the online trading platform to the fast food restaurant that Liu Yingying had negotiated with in Beijing before. Strive to spread fast food restaurants all over Chu City before the end of this month, in order to have more bargaining chips to counter Xia Qianhe's strong attack.

Due to Lin Feng's shortage of funds, although a fast food restaurant of about 30 square meters has a total investment of about 50,000 yuan, the funds are far from enough to form a chain. Lin Feng made a prompt decision and decided to adopt the method of franchising, charging a certain franchising fee to expand the reputation of the fast food restaurant and at the same time expand the company.

In the initial franchise store, Lin Feng directly approached relatives on both sides of his parents. Because of his father's accidental injury before, Lin Feng's resistance to the relatives has disappeared. In addition, the relatives have been complaining that Lin Feng did not point them to a way of making money. Allowing them to owe their favors can also strengthen the momentum of the fast food restaurant, which can be said to serve multiple purposes.

"Okay, all the elders have read the contract, if you have no comments, please sign the contract." Lin Feng looked at the elders and said.

"Uh, there is only one problem, the conflict between you and the deputy mayor..." Obviously, after the stock market time and the development of Lin Feng Wangcheng, the relatives have no doubts about Lin Feng's vision, but are worried about his relationship with him. Conflict among deputy mayors.

"Don't worry, I will solve this. And this time the licensee of the company is not me, so I think there should be no problem." Lin Feng explained.

"Well, that's good." All the relatives breathed a sigh of relief, and signed their names readily. The two companies invested a total of 50,000 yuan, but the profit return rate was 100%. If they still consider such a good thing, they would be really stupid.

After that, Lin Feng handed over issues such as site selection and unified decoration style to Liu Yingying, and rushed to Shenzhen without stopping.

There are only three days left until September 11th when "CS Counter-Strike" will be available for download worldwide. However, although Lin Feng's online trading platform has been promoted unremittingly during this period of time, the results have been minimal, and no transaction has occurred so far.

Just when Lin Feng was worried about this, he accidentally saw an employee logging into QQ, and Lin Feng suddenly had an idea.

Tencent was established in November 1998, with "providing users with one-stop online life services" as the company's strategic goal.

In April 2000, the number of registered QQ users reached 5 million.

In May, the number of simultaneous online users of QQ exceeded 100,000 for the first time.

On May 28, "People's Daily" reported: At 20:43 on the evening of May 27, the number of concurrent QQ users exceeded 100,000 for the first time.

In June, the number of QQ registered users exceeded 10 million again.

Although the current Tencent is not as prosperous as it was later, its future prospects are unanimously optimistic by everyone in the industry. It's just that Tencent is also facing a common problem with many Internet companies at the moment, the balance of payments. Most of the Internet companies at this stage rely on venture capital to maintain their operations and do not have any substantial income for the time being.

Sina, NetEase, etc. in China in the early days only raised enough funds to continue their operations after they were listed on Nasdaq, and then gradually continued to grow and become the leader in the industry. For Tencent at this time, it is still far away if it wants to be listed on NASDAQ or Hong Kong. Although the current Tencent has tens of millions of registered users, it is still a small company struggling in Shenzhen.

Lin Feng went to Shenzhen this time to discuss cooperation matters with Ma Huateng, the chairman of Tencent, who still has the title of engineer printed on his business card. Originally, Liu Yingying wanted to accompany him, but Lin Feng still decided to let Liu Yingying be in charge of the fast food restaurant. After all, the fast food restaurant is more important to Lin Feng now.

Not only do they have to face Xia Qianhe's strong attack in the future, but they also have to face the attack from the two leaders in the fast food industry - KFC and McDonald's. Without Liu Yingying in charge, Lin Feng was really worried.

What's more, this cooperation, to a certain extent, is the opportunity that Lin Feng gave Tencent, not the online trading platform opportunity that Tencent gave Lin Feng.

On September 7, Lin Feng sat in Ma Huateng's office with his secretary Cheng Peijia.

Ma Huateng, 30 years old, obtained a bachelor's degree in science from Shenzhen University in 1993, majoring in computing and applications, and has extensive knowledge and experience in the telecommunications and Internet industries.

"Mr. Lin, may I ask why you have traveled all the way to Shenzhen this time?" Ma Huateng was extremely curious about Lin Feng, wondering what kind of cooperation plan this young man, who is 10 years younger than himself, would propose. Although my company now has tens of millions of users and the market prospect is extremely good, so far no company has proposed to cooperate with me. This makes Ma Huateng secretly helpless, and at the same time motivates himself even more. The best web service company.

Lin Feng smiled slightly, but did not speak, and reached out to stop Cheng Peijia who wanted to take out the cooperation plan contract.

"Director Ma, what do you think about the future of your company?" Lin Feng asked.

"Tencent Internet Company will surely become the best Internet company in the country." Ma Huateng made no secret of his ambition.

"Then what do you think of the online trading platform?" Lin Feng asked again.

"This..." Ma Huateng has also done relevant investigations, and knows that Lin Feng is now the owner of an obscure online trading platform, and the development is extremely difficult, although the situation is similar to his own company now. But in terms of the number of registered users and prospects, they are not the same.

After pondering for a while, Ma Huateng said carefully, "In China, eBay is the current leader in online personal trading platforms, and Alibaba is the leader in company trade. Your company..."

Ma Huateng didn't say anything later, but Lin Feng knew what he meant. Lin Feng didn't care about this, and waited quietly for Ma Huateng to finish.

Ma Huateng saw that Lin Feng was not displeased at all, nodded secretly, and continued, "I have roughly browsed your online trading network, and you should be taking the personal trading route, that is, using eBay as your competitor. But right now, in terms of popularity, It is said that you are far from being able to compare with eBay, let alone the transaction volume. However, you are stricter than eBay in the initial member registration review system. Although you blocked many customers in the early stage, in the long run, your The prospect of online transaction network is even more promising. EachNet is too simple in auditing, and the individual merchants in it are uneven, which is very easy to cause credit crisis, and it will lead to trouble sooner or later if it continues to develop like this.”

Lin Feng secretly admired Ma Huateng's gaze, and this was indeed an important reason why eBay gradually sank.

"However, what I want to ask is, how does Mr. Lin plan to cooperate with our company? You know, my Tencent website now has tens of millions of registered users, and this number is still increasing every day." Say.

Ma Huateng's strength is expected by Lin Feng. His current online trading platform is not at the same level as the other party's. The so-called cooperation may be "begging" in the other party's eyes. But this kind of "begging" does not pay a certain price, Ma Huateng will never agree.

"It's very simple. I hope that when you log in to QQ, your company will add a pop-up window that displays my company's website and a brief introduction." Lin Feng then handed the prepared cooperation letter to Ma Huateng.

Ma Huateng just took a cursory look. He was more concerned about what Lin Feng said just now.

Add a popup! ——Ma Huateng immediately thought that he could use this to advertise to ease the company's tight financial situation. But then, Ma Huateng shook his head again. At this moment, my company is still in the development stage, and competitors are also trying to squeeze into the instant messaging market. If I add advertisements rashly, I may lose a lot of customers because of small losses.

After thinking about it for a while, Ma Huateng looked at Lin Feng and waited quietly for this young man who was 10 years younger than him to throw out his chips. If this bargaining chip is enough to tempt him, he might as well agree.

After all, this online trading platform is not considered an advertisement for the vast number of registered QQ users. Just another service provided.
