Top of the big era

Boss Zhou stepped out, and he was ready to grab it!

The game copyright issue of "Three Kingdoms Killing" has been solved.

Not only solved.

The production of the game "Three Kingdoms" has already started, and the technical, design, art, music, testing and other teams are all in operation. It would be too wasteful to directly dismantle this department and give up the efforts of the past two months.

If Helo can connect with the winger game platform, the winger will have a chance to compete with the QQ game platform. Shanda definitely took advantage of this matter.

This is a development opportunity that money cannot buy.

In order to express his gratitude, the winger also showed great sincerity, saying that he would give all the members of the "Three Kingdoms Killing" team to Ziweixing.

In fact, it is only 18 people.

This is just a small game. It took 10 months to make, 2 months to sculpt, and 2 months to test. Basically, next summer, the client and web version of "Three Kingdoms" will be launched.

Zhou Buqi was very satisfied with Shanda's attitude, so he simply set up a new game studio in Hangzhou, specializing in "Three Kingdoms Killing". The game studio in Pengcheng was not very good, and when the popularity of web games passed, it would disband on the spot.

Of course, Boss Zhou personally made a trip, and it was impossible to just solve the trivial matter of the copyright of "Three Kingdoms".

Wang Yaojin and Feng Muer are both secretaries, they follow the boss and can grasp the business situation first-hand.

In the following period of contact, from the mouths of Mr. Chen and Mr. Shi, he also understood the layout of his boss.

Well, the layout is really big!

On the flight back to Beijing, the two chatted endlessly.

Wang Yaojin said belatedly: "QQ is a closed software and does not cooperate with external parties. Helo is an open product that can provide traffic support for all Internet products. The boss is powerful, much stronger than Mr. Ma, and the structure is better than others. high."

Feng Muer glanced at the boss with flashing eyes, a little disappointed, and found that he was closing his eyes and resting his mind, and said softly: "Helo is relatively stable now, many technical problems that occurred in the early stage have been solved, and the stability is almost the same as QQ. Then When we come down, we should go all out to grab the territory.”

Wang Yaojin also understands this way, "Yes, Helo now has 50 million daily active users, and QQ's daily active users are 62 million. The difference is not big. This time, the function of the game panel has been added, and Helo users can also play chess and card games through Helo... It is estimated that it will take less than ten days and half a month to surpass QQ!"

Zhou Buqi didn't want to disturb the two of them, and was pretending to be asleep, but he couldn't help it when he heard this, and said with a smile: "You think QQ is so easy to defeat?"

Wang Yaojin smiled, "Boss, are you up?"

Zhou Buqi said angrily: "You two don't talk nonsense here, people will hear it, and make fun of me as a boss who is not well educated."

Wang Yaojin blushed a little, and puffed her mouth and said, "Is what I said wrong? The most criticized point of Helo is that it is too weak for entertainment. With the game panel and popular games added, can't you compete with QQ?"

Zhou Buqi glanced at her, "Helo's positioning is not entertainment software."

"Ah?" Wang Yaojin was a little confused, "I have opened up with the winger game hall, isn't it just for entertainment?"

Zhou Buqi said: "This is just a means, not an end."

"What's the meaning?"

Wang Yaojin didn't understand, she turned her head to look at Feng Muer, she also looked confused.

This matter is more complicated, Zhou Buqi didn't want to explain more, so he waved his hand, "You will know after a while, observe quietly and think silently."

Because it is the "May Day" holiday, many executives are on vacation.

After Zhou Buqi returned to Beijing, he was not in a hurry to hold a meeting, so he called Xu Liangjie and Zhang Yiming to the office, and exchanged ideas first.

Seeing Boss Zhou's proud look, Xu Liangjie smiled and said, "It looks like this business trip was a success."

Zhou Buqi smiled, "It's not just success."

"oh?"

Xu Liangjie was very curious.

Zhou Buqi said with a smile: "In the process of resolving the copyright of "Three Kingdoms" this time, I discovered a strategic opportunity. If grasped, Ziwei Star will firmly occupy the top position of the domestic Internet tower."

Xu Liangjie quickly asked, "What is it?"

Zhang Yiming looked excited, "Great!"

It stands to reason that such major strategic issues should be discussed by the decision-making committee, or at least should be communicated by several core executives before they can operate.

However, Boss Zhou is different.

Past experience makes him qualified to act arbitrarily. The results have also proved many times that his decisions are often far-sighted and proved to be correct by time.

Zhou Buqi said: "Now Helo has stabilized, and the number of daily active users has remained at around 50 million. Social relationships and usage habits have gradually been established. The worry of being popular for a while and then disappearing quickly can be completely eliminated."

Zhang Yiming nodded and said: "Well, from the perspective of business, operation, technology, and middle platform, Helo has entered a mature stage, and it can be regarded as a very mature product. Now, the daily activity of Youyou.com is 48 million. Toutiao’s DAU is 34 million, Xiaonei’s DAU is 12 million, and Helo’s DAU is 50 million. Helo’s role in Ziweixing’s ecosystem is gradually converging to the value of QQ’s to Penguin.”

Zhou Buqi asked: "How many websites can be directly and quickly logged in through Helo?"

Zhang Yiming said: "It's mainly our own website and the websites we invest in. The external websites are not yet open...well, only Sohu is open."

"Jingdong, Youku, Kuliu, Sohu, are these all open?"

"Um."

"How is it? Is it stable?"

"Very good, very convenient." Zhang Yiming smiled, "The main thing involved here is database management, and we can solve it."

Then, Zhang Yiming gave a brief explanation to Boss Zhou from a technical point of view.

Helo users need to store some personal information in the database, such as account name, password and so on.

Each account must correspond to a userid primary key.

Under this userid, there will be a series of ids below, such as Friends.com id, Weibo id, Jingdong id, Youku id, Sohu id and so on.

Through these ids, the accounts of different websites are associated with Helo accounts, and the binding relationship between the userid and these ids will be recorded in the database.

When users use Sohu, Youku and other websites, they can directly retrieve the corresponding id from Ziweixing's database through Helo to complete the login.

It is very easy to add a new website id, just add one more entry in userid.

What is technically challenging is the reading process.

For example, a user uses Helo to log in to Sohu. During the login process, he needs to read Ziweixing's database and then jump to Sohu's database.

Sohu has a few million, JD.com has a few million, and youku, Kuliu, UC, Weibo and other websites... When users log in, they have to read Ziweixing's database.

Add up and add up, the number will be amazing.

This puts forward two requirements for Ziweixing.

First, the infrastructure is solid and capable of processing big data.

There must be many servers, strong processing capabilities, large broadband capacity, and the ability to withstand huge traffic visits.

Second, stability.

Once there is a problem with Ziweixing's database and other websites cannot be logged in, the customer must be compensated for the loss.

Just like the early train ticket website 12306, it often fails to log in, and the website may even crash. That is, the background database collapsed, the infrastructure is not enough, and the stability is not enough.

Zhou Buqi nodded, expressing his understanding, and then asked: "What is Helo's cooperation model with those outstations?"

Zhang Yiming smiled, "There is no cooperation model."

Xu Liangjie added: "It was in the testing stage before. Websites such as Youku and Sohu all helped us test the stability of Helo's quick login, and provided us with a lot of data feedback."

"Free?"

"Yes, take what you need."

"Don't use it now?" Zhou Buqi is a technical layman after all, and he has to listen to the opinions of professionals, "Is our side mature?"

Zhang Yiming smiled and said, "Very mature!"

Zhou Buqi said: "Then expand it to the outside world and open it to more peers. I went to Shanghai this time and reached an agreement with Shanda and Giant to add a game panel to Helo. Through Helo, you can directly log in their game."

Then, I briefly explained the process of this trip to the south.

Zhang Yiming and Xu Liangjie looked at each other, and they both felt something deeply.

Sure enough!

Boss Zhou is playing big again.

It is a start to enable quick login for games such as "Journey", "Legendary World" and the winger game hall. After this start, Helo will be fully open to all peers.

As long as both parties are willing, all websites and software in the future can be directly logged in through Helo.

This is indeed a card to ensure that Ziwei Xing will stand at the top of the pyramid for a long time!

Zhou Buqi said: "For new websites and new games, the link with the highest loss rate is registration. Many people lack Internet knowledge and cannot register. Even if many people can register, the tedious registration process takes several minutes. Time, if there is a mistake in a certain link, you have to start over, and your patience will be exhausted."

Zhang Yiming took a deep breath, "That's right, you must be extremely careful during the registration process. According to statistics, the registration process has a user turnover rate as high as 40%."

Xu Liangjie said: "Let's not talk about ordinary people, I'm also afraid of registering. Every website needs to register and log in, and remember the account number and password. Sometimes the account password is different, and it is often confused or forgotten. .Let’s not talk about the country, but looking at the whole world, this is a problem that just needs to be solved.”

Zhou Buqi said: "Now that the technology is mature, Helo will challenge this rigid demand problem and help netizens across the country solve the pain points of difficult registration! Helo should be able to solve all website and software problems with one-click login! This not only helps users , It also helped those Internet companies to optimize the 40% registration churn rate, which will be of great help to the development of the industry.”

Of course, helping others is helping yourself.

For example, all websites and application software in the country are logged in through the account userid of Helo, and the login information is stored in the database of Ziweixing.

This also means that Helo has become a rigid product.

As long as you go online, you must log in to Helo, and log in to other platforms through Helo.

At that time, it will be impossible to leave Helo.

Users and Helo are already deeply bound.

If he gives up Helo, it means that he has to modify the account information of dozens or hundreds of websites or software that he has registered and logged in with Helo in the past many years.

The cost of this modification is too high to remember.

almost impossible.

Users can only stick to Helo and never leave.

Although Helo is not yet profitable, its strategic significance is already the core product for Ziweixing.

If Helo doesn't die, Ziwei will live forever.
