MTL - Internet 2010-Chapter 46 Trade secrets

When Lu Zhou heard Wen Xuwei say he was not interested in coming to Dream Valley, he was not surprised.

After all, they had worked together for so long in the previous life, and the two still kept in touch even after resigning. Naturally, he knew Wen Xuwei's temperament.

For Wen Xuwei, going deep into technology is what attracts him more, and even if Lu Zhou mentioned that he wants to do cloud computing, this bargaining chip is obviously not enough to attract Wen Xuwei to change jobs.

"Bro Wen, I have a question for you."

Lu Zhou asked Wen Xuwei, "What do you think is the advantage of cloud computing compared to traditional server leasing?"

Wen Xuwei gave the answer almost without thinking, "Inexpensive. Suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and developers."

Lu Zhou nodded, "Yes. For users whose business needs are less than one physical machine, this is the most affordable solution. And it can be handled more flexibly when adjusting the business."

"The second question. If Phaeton develops a corresponding cloud computing platform, how should it be priced? For example, the original monthly rent of a physical machine is 5,000, and it is divided into ten cloud servers. The total rent of these ten units should be higher than 5,000. Or less than five thousand?"

On this issue, Wen Xuwei thought for a while.

"From a reasonable point of view, it should be lower, because its original intention is cost-effective. However, Phaeton itself has invested manpower, material resources and funds in research and development, and it should not be low from Phaeton's point of view."

Lu Zhou couldn't help sighing secretly, Wen Xuwei is still Wen Xuwei, and his point of view in his professional field is quite accurate.

"The third question. If there is a service provider with a lower price in the market, and the price is much lower than 5,000, how should Phaeton respond?"

"Impossible!" Wen Xuwei said almost decisively.

"It's not logical."

At this time, the waiter was serving the food.

Lu Zhou was not in a hurry, and said slowly, "Assume that this service provider has its own business and needs a large number of servers to cope with peak demand, but usually it has a large number of redundant servers?"

"This?"

Wen Xuwei thought for a while, and then he understood that Lu Zhou was referring to several large Internet companies in China.

But he still tried to refute Luzhou's hypothesis, "Phaeton also has a high idle rate now. The price issue does not hold."

"There is an essential difference between the so-called idleness of the two. The former is brought about by his own business needs, while the Phaeton is determined by Lao Song's own thoughts. In fact, you also understand that since Lao Song decided to enter cloud computing, a lot of profits have been transformed into Server assets. The bayonet is really fighting, and the judgment is made."

Lu Zhou went on to make up for the knife, "Then again. There are hundreds of millions of users, the load of the server is not the same, and the technical depth is also very different."

"Brother Wen, after asking so many questions, you should understand in your heart. Let me be frank here. Ever since I started working under you, I knew that you would leave Phaeton sooner or later. Phaeton Temple is too small, I can't stand your great god."

Wen Xuwei was happy when he heard it, "Why does it sound like you're complimenting yourself?"

Lu Zhou greeted him and moved his chopsticks while saying haha.

"Haha, that can't be done. Don't wait for the dishes to cool while you eat."

On the contrary, Wen Xuwei didn't do anything. Instead, he straightened his expression and said to Lu Zhou, "You've come to this point, and I'll ask you a few questions."

When Lu Zhou heard it, he also put down his chopsticks, "Okay, brother Wen, say it."

"First, since Phaeton can't do it, why can your Dream Valley do it?"

"Menggu advertising combined with the future banana market will gather a group of developers, and these developers will inevitably need server resources. These developers can divert traffic to the cloud computing business. To put it bluntly, Menggu has its own business needs and certain requirements. user base.”

"Second, you mentioned the issue of carrying capacity. Do you have other plans for the next step? Don't fool me with the two businesses of Dream Valley just now."

Lu Zhou only said two words, "Communication."

Wen Xuwei couldn't believe it, and asked in a doubtful tone, "Penguin?"

Lu Zhou nodded, but Wen Xuwei, who saw Lu Zhou's confirmation, felt as if the river was overturned. He was shocked by Lu Zhou's crazy idea and didn't know what to say.

As long as they are engaged in the Internet, no one will not know the energy of penguins and want to make trouble in the social field of penguins?

It's too much of a heart, and it's more difficult to choose to start a business in this field.

After a long time, Wen Xuwei pinched his thigh, picked up the food with the bowl and chopsticks, and ate it in big gulps.

He said vaguely, "It's either that I'm dreaming, or you're crazy."

Lu Zhou also ate together, and he responded with a smile, "That's not right, let's go crazy together."

"Last question, how far do you think you can do it?"

"People have gathered, one billion in five or six years."

Wen Xuwei replied speechlessly, "The RMB is still the U.S. dollar, don't you need to brag without drafting?"

"I mean a billion users."

"..."

Lu Zhou couldn't help but complain, "Otherwise, I would only provoke penguins when I have a sick brain, and I must do it all the way to the end."

"It's also you who asked me how far I can do it, it's too simple to say it's boring. I won't tease you, right now, there are a lot of developers and users connected to Dream Valley. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com Two weeks of running water of 600,000 yuan, the unit price is 10 cents, you can calculate the approximate flow by yourself."

Wen Xuwei suddenly choked, he hammered his chest, "cough cough cough. What?"

"It's true, brother Vancouver. It will be expanded in a while. I really hope you come, and you must also want to ponder more in-depth techniques. No matter from which perspective, Dream Valley is more suitable for you."

Lu Zhou continued, "The early planning of Menggu Cloud Computing is a two-step process. The first step is SaaS, which provides statistical analysis and operation analysis tools for developers, and the second step is application engine. I won't say anything else, old man. Song's application engine is still letting you just do research, and I'm going to start it right away. You can measure it yourself."

"really?"

"Can I still lie to you? I have prepared the framework design planning and product documentation."

Wen Xuwei's eyes lit up when he heard it, "What are you going to do? Let me take a look first?"

Lu Zhou didn't have time to write, he just flicked Wen Xuwei's remarks first, and some were just drafts and thoughts in his mind.

"Wait until you confirm that you want to come. Trade secrets."

Wen Xuwei was speechless, "The secret of the fart, you won't die if you glance at it."

"Come on, I'll talk about it when you come. I still have to dig my mind out of you, and I have to worry about whether I will be beaten to death by Lao Song when I look back."

"Let me think about it."

Lu Zhou was not in a hurry, "Okay."

After the two had finished eating, Wen Xuwei returned home and continued to investigate the work of the Xinlang application engine last night.

But before and after, Lu Zhou's words always lingered in his mind.

And he was constantly thinking about how to do this part of the function according to Lu Zhou.

In the end, he still picked up his mobile phone and called Lu Zhou.
