Rebirth of the Internet Overlord

{Time: September 8, 2003}

{Location: Flower Planting-Special Zone}

"The acquisition of Coldplay Technology will not solve Shengda's problems. Why not talk about cooperation?"

Zhai Haibin was stunned by the seemingly arrogant words of the young man named Ning Zimo opposite, but he did not put down his hand.

The disruptive strategy he had just planned to let others rush in was executed very well, but it was of no practical use.

The young man across from me also followed the same strategy, and was even better at it.

Now, the young man has come over.

If you avoid fighting, you will be at a disadvantage.

Zhai Haibin put his hands on the table. This action is well known to everyone in the team - it is a habitual action controlled by him.

At this moment, there was no other sound in the conference room except the sound of the projector's cooling fan.

Zhai Haibin raised his chin, nodded towards Ning Zimo, and generously gave up the stage.

"Mr. Ning, please tell me."

Ning Zimo looked at Zhai Haibin's actions that were quite typical of everyone across the street. The expression on his face did not change at all, and he just nodded slightly in response.

But as soon as he opened his mouth, Zhai Haibin's heart tightened.

“Shengda’s e-sales system has a fatal flaw that cannot be solved by combining everything else!”

Ning Zimo's firm words not only made Zhai Haibin tremble in his heart, but also changed the expressions on the faces of the others accompanying Shengda.

But the changes in their faces were not what Ning Zimo was concerned about. Ning Zimo had his own goals to achieve.

"e-sales' sales network with Internet cafes as the core realizes the online interaction of data information flow and capital flow. From then on, Internet cafe players can easily buy virtual cards, and Internet cafes can easily attract players. e-sales firmly controls

Sales terminal, everyone looks happy

But this model can be easily copied, so Wangyi, Jiucheng, Jinshan, etc. have all joined in. Although the price difference between everyone's virtual cards is not big, the supply to distributors is the same, the sales price is the same, and the ultimate beneficiaries are all

The owner of the internet cafe.

But those who built this system, have they ever thought about this question - have Internet cafe owners really benefited?"

Ning Zimo paused deliberately, seemingly asking a question, but in reality he was just leaving space for thinking to everyone present at Shengda, lest they be unable to cope with the situation below!

"Every time a game is launched, you must register for e-sales and remember the account and password. Each operator is prepaid, which requires a sufficient amount of funds. At the same time, an e-sales system can only sell products from one operator.

A product. Internet cafe owners originally wanted to save costs, but who would have thought that it would increase time and capital costs? Is this really convenient?

E-sales has too many inherent shortcomings. In the entire chain of operators-channel dealers-Internet cafe owners-players, no one actually benefits, so how much is its value?

Therefore, Shengda intends to acquire Coldplay to sell its own virtual cards. If other operators are unwilling to provide their own virtual cards, will Wanxiang Fantasy be able to sell Shengda’s exclusive products after the change of ownership?

In order to compete with Shengda, other operators simply developed their own Internet cafe management software, or other online sales methods. So what is the value of Shengda’s acquisition of Coldplay to promote Shengda’s e-sales?”

The space Ning Zimo just left was like the last silence in the darkness before dawn.

Then, there was a violent storm of artillery shells, whizzing and hitting the entire position of Shengda's people.

After the smoke cleared, they crawled out of their shell holes, only to see a handsome young man in white clothes and a turban, with a smile on his face.

The entire Shengda team looked at me and I looked at you, but in the end they could only turn their attention to Zhai Haibin, who was at the top.

Zhai Haibin was stunned by the handsome young man's question.

Because Ning Zimo mentioned several issues just now, which were issues that could not be solved after Shengda's internal discussions.

Who is he?

How does he know?

Zhai Haibin, who had gone through a lot, understood that his confusion at that moment was due to his wrong prediction of the young man.

After all his calculations, he just whispered to him!

But he saw that Mr. Ning was not done yet. At this time, he was asking Wu Zhenyu, who was more famous than him in the industry, to bring up a new ppt page.

"If we, as a third party, provide operators with online sales of digital cards in the form of virtual card codes, why doesn't Shengda cooperate with us at Coldplay?"

Third party?

Zhai Haibin heard it. This was a deliberate reminder from Mr. Ning, otherwise he would not have emphasized the tone.

Third party?!!!

Zhai Haibin suddenly understood and looked at Ning Zimo with sparkling eyes.

Ning Zimo knew that Zhai Haibin must have understood.

But, this is not enough.

"Our General Military Officer has prepared some information for you. You can calm down and listen carefully."

Zhai Haibin turned away from Ning Zimo's face and looked at the curtain. He was afraid of missing any part of Wu Zhenyu's introduction.

"The online sales module of Wanxiang Fantasy is currently only open to operators. Its function is to sell card-type virtual point card products. It removes the intermediate links, no middlemen make profit differences, and directly benefits Internet cafe owners.

Card keys sold through the main server of your own Internet cafe or any terminal will be directly settled to the corresponding account of the Internet cafe owner after the sale. The settlement is once a month, and there is no need to occupy the funds of the Internet cafe owner at all.

Coolplay will provide two card secret transaction methods. One is the Wanxiang open interface, in which the operator uploads the card secret and stores it on the Wanxiang server. It does not require any operator resources and only does transaction settlement.

The other is that Wanxiang does not store any operator's card secret information and only records transaction information. When a transaction occurs, the Wanxiang server sends a transaction request, the operator's server provides the card secret and feeds it back to the requesting terminal, and Wanxiang records the transaction

information, and the feedback is successful. The settlement between the operator and Coldplay can be done once a week or even once a month.

Considering that the channel dealers originally have a promotional role, the online sales system of Vientiane Fantasy will replace the functions of the channel dealers. In the next phase of updates, value-added services for game updates will be provided. The server will download the operator update files regularly, and customer service

The terminal automatically updates.

At the same time, the next version of Wanxiang will begin to provide unified records of customer information. In addition to customer information, it will also record the customer's movement track in the Internet cafe, so that the customer's preferences are well understood.

Then, this function will correspond to the development of a service interface for hardware and software service providers. For example, in response to new games launched by operators and new products launched by hardware vendors, you can choose your own promotion areas and groups.

Wanxiang will push corresponding activity information such as advertisements, trials, trials, activities and rewards to selected client terminals. This kind of push refers to the delivery as soon as the end user logs on to the computer, browses the web or system desktop

Wanxiang will help the advertiser's marketing team follow up on the effectiveness of the marketing, record what activities were carried out where, who participated, and for how long. Of course, if more data is needed, Wanxiang needs to contact the operator

Open certain interfaces to each other for docking, so that the operator's market plan can be targeted."

Linlin has dozens of pages in total, all of which are clear pictures and brief text.

The content of each ppt caught Zhai Haibin's eye, and Zhai Haibin found that he had a strong desire for knowledge just now. After finishing each ppt, he couldn't wait to know the next chapter. Until the one projected on the wall

There was no other content in the ppt, so he escaped from the feeling of returning to the classroom.

Despite this, Zhai Haibin still looked normal.

However, he placed his right hand, which was still shaking slightly, under the table to support his knee, concealing his shock.

Wanxiang Fantasy is now just an Internet cafe management system terminal, but according to the plan of this new version, it will replace all functions of e-sales, a pure online sales system, channel dealers, and local promotion.

If all these functions of Vientiane Illusion are realized, each operator only needs to plan its own marketing activities and rely on Vientiane Illusion to realize them perfectly.

But after all, only third parties like Coldplay can do this, but operators like Shengda cannot.

Because operators do not make calls to each other, any operator that does this will be naturally rejected by other operators.

Only third parties can do it, only Coolplay’s Wanxiang Fantasy can do it.

Because only it occupies 98% of the market, only it can be involved in updating games, only it can do the push, and only it currently has the ability to re-integrate the corresponding resources of Internet cafes.

The original version of Vientiane Illusion is not like this. It took Wu Zhenyu 7 years. If he could do it, he would have made it long ago.

Is this new version of the Vientiane environment what Mr. Ning in front of me wants?

Zhai Haibin was speechless, and the other Shengda members around him didn't dare to say anything. The whole narration process followed the rhythm of Ning Zimo and Wu Zhenyu.

Everyone at Shengda knows that the life cycle of e-sales is short. This has been a consensus within the team for a long time, but no one has analyzed it so thoroughly.

But the people who made the clear analysis were not the people from Shengda, but the company they wanted to acquire!

In other words, the opposite company not only rejected the acquisition, but also came up with a new set of plans suitable for Shengda.

That’s nothing, he’s telling you in front of you that only he can do this!

Very angry!

But very helpless.

All of a sudden, all the attention was focused on Ning Zimo.

The expression on Ning Zimo's face had not changed since the moment he spoke. At this time, he met the eyes of Shengda's group of people, and finally focused his eyes on Zhai Haibin.

Zhai Haibin knew that he had to say something at this time.

Before coming, Director Chen authorized himself to act according to the situation, but only for acquisition proposals.

This new plan is completely different from the expectations before coming here, but in my own eyes, it is a perfect plan, but it still has some shortcomings.

"Mr. Ning, thank you for trusting us and introducing us to your new version that has not yet been launched. This new version is very powerful and can do a lot.

But what I want to know is that I just heard President Wu’s introduction that it will be launched in the next version. So my question is, where is the current progress of this version?”

After all, he is a veteran, and his ability to grasp key points is very good.

Ning Zimo smiled and said, "Mr. Zhai, all relevant functions are currently under development. The overall completion rate is 95%. The remaining 5% is just the development and docking of a payment interface."

Zhai Haibin frowned when he heard this. Although he was not very technical, Shengda spent a lot of time on the e-sales payment interface back then.

He simply put the problem aside and said, "Mr. Ning, although the payment process is not difficult, if it is really stuck here, it may not reflect 5% of the working time."

Ning Zi remained silent, "Mr. Zhai, do you know Beibao?"

"I know, it's a company that specializes in online payments." After all, Zhai Haibin is someone who pays attention to the Internet in the United States, so he naturally knows something about Beibao.

But he was curious, "What does this have to do with the new version of Vientiane?"

Ning Zimo nodded elegantly to Zhai Haibin, "To be honest with Mr. Zhai, I was already a senior engineer at Beibao in May 2001, and I once led a team of engineers, including Beibao's CTO, to develop independent products.

When I went to the United States this time, my original partner, Mr. Levchin, the former Bebao CTO, had already come to Changhua with me. He is a security technology expert for Bebao Payment and has participated in all development aspects of security technology.

, so we at Coldplay have no shortage of professional talents.

At the same time, another link in the payment interface of Wanxiang Fantasy - the bank, is a link that Shengda has passed through before. If Shengda is willing to lend a helping hand, I believe this step can be solved faster."

Ning Zimo smiled to himself after saying that, "It is not difficult to apply for a payment interface with a bank, but with the endorsement of a big company like Shengda, we can even apply for a more favorable commission rate, which will benefit even more.

Internet cafe owner.”

When Zhai Haibin heard Mr. Ning's past resume, he took a deep breath.

Beibao, that company that was acquired for US$1.8 billion, was he a member of it?

Listening to him talk about what happened in the past seemed like a child showing off, but the moment the words changed, it made Zhai Haibin feel like he was talking to an old fox.

What does it mean to get through faster? This shows that they can do it themselves, but they have to use Shengda's channels to speed up the matter. In this matter, he is confident.

Because in addition to Shengda, people who can endorse him can also be Wangyi, Jinshan, and Jiucheng!

The important thing is that Shengda came to the door but couldn't refuse!

This coming and going creates a sense of déjà vu between one young and one old.

Zhai Haibin felt a toothache after hearing these words!

Zhai Haibin looked at Ning Zimo carefully, as if he wanted to imprint him in the deepest part of his mind.

Where did such a powerful person come from?

In the stone?

He is so powerful, why didn't he have a good reputation before?

Zhai Haibin suddenly had a feeling that one day in the future, among those who would climb high and look far into the distance, this young man would definitely have a place!
