MTL - Rebirth 2002: Nano Life-Chapter 28 You open an Internet cafe, I sell the system

"It sounds good." Brother Hao smiled.

Of course Chen Yizhe knew what Brother Hao didn't say below - in fact, no one knew whether it was useful or not.

"Brother Hao, otherwise, I can give you the machine first. You can try it for a while. If you think it's okay, then everyone will be happy and cooperate happily. If it doesn't work, return the machine to me, and you should help a new friend." Chen Yizhe Yi Ran straightened out.

"Yongbo, look, the current post-80s generation is incredible." Brother Hao said to Huang Yongbo, then turned to Chen Yizhe and said, "Whether it is successful or not, I have made a deal with you as a new friend."

After introducing himself with Brother Hao, Chen Yizhe knew that Brother Hao's full name was Yang Zhihao. He had been a soldier for several years and only returned to Fengba to open this Internet cafe last year.

"Then you will bring the machine in a day or two, and I will try it out for a week. If possible, let's talk about cooperation." Yang Zhihao immediately said to Chen Yizhe, which shows that he is doing things in a hurry.

"I have two servers now, and I have to make a trip to Pengcheng for the client. It shouldn't be too late in a day or two." Chen Yizhe told the truth.

"Don't worry, I still have some old machines that I have taken back. I can temporarily lend twenty of them to you." Huang Yongbo interrupted at this time.

"It's too early to be profitable, Huang Yongbo, I know what you want to do with your butt. Is it possible that if this diskless system model is successful, we should promote your broken website?" Brother Hao smiled right at this time. Chen Yizhe explained, "Huang Yongbo is a first-class computer expert in the county. He can repair hardware, compile software, and even create his own website!"

"Fucking computer expert, isn't the pool shallow, the king is king?" Huang Yongbo likes to laugh at himself.

"Yo, do you still have self-knowledge? It seems that I have to call you the old man in the future."

"Try it and see if the computer is broken and who can help you."

Looking at the joking words of the two, Chen Yizhe knew that their relationship should be good. These days, all the people who build their own websites are those who stand on the trend of the times, but Chen Yizhe is very curious about what kind of websites he builds.

"Brother Bo, what website are you working on?" Chen Yizhe asked.

"It's from a small navigation website. If you make it casually, the server will be left at the Internet cafe."

"Similar to hao123?" Chen Yizhe asked. The only navigation website he can remember is hao123, which was acquired by Baidu. The latter appeared on the Internet as early as 1999 and should be the earliest navigation website in China.

"Well, I just imitated it. I didn't feel that there was any major technology, so I made it myself to play. I just made it for half a year, and the average daily traffic was less than 2,000." Huang Yongbo laughed at himself.

"Bo Ge, I don't agree with you saying that hao123 has no technology. Of course, writing such a website is not very technical, but how to operate and promote it is also a technology with a large content. The author of hao123 should be called Li Xingping, Bo Ge, you are here. After going through the hao123 website, in terms of the distribution of the pages, we can tell at a glance that Li Xingping has a good grasp of user needs. I will ask two questions, why can Li Xingping know all kinds of high-quality websites in so many rich categories? Why can he Is the quality of the included websites so important?"

At the beginning of hao123's establishment, almost all websites were like an island of information that was not indexed by search engines. In this era of using tables to lay out static web pages, there are very few people like Li Xingping who have a simple sense of interaction design, and very few people can understand the commercial value of navigation, and among these very few people, almost no one Dare to invest, so for Li Xingping, Chen Yizhe, an engineer of later generations, still admires him.

"You said this, think about it carefully, and think that the author has done a good job in meeting user needs. It is estimated that this is the core and most critical part of the success of hao123." The more Huang Yongbo thought about it, the more he felt that Chen Yizhe was right. He continued, "So do you see a future in navigating websites?"

Chen Yizhe took a sip of tea, pondered for a while, and after the language in his mind was organized, he said, "The technical cost of navigating the website is too low and the technical threshold is too low. I think that many of the next portal websites and software companies will It will use its own traffic and installed capacity to promote its own navigation software. However, although the traffic of the navigation website is large, it does not have real user viscosity in essence. Users just regard it as a transit station, and it does not have traffic. Conversion, the biggest source of income in the future, is probably just selling ads.”

That is, Baidu. Before listing, they valued hao123's huge number of users in China. In order to give American investors confidence and to inflate Baidu's market value, this is why hao123 sold 50 million shares and cash.

After listening to Chen Yizhe's words, Huang Yongbo thought for a while, then turned his head and sighed at Brother Hao, "You are right, the post-80s generation is really incredible. We post-70s are getting old and our minds can't keep up."

"Then what do you think is a promising website?" Brother Hao, who was listening with interest, asked.

"To make an Internet product, the first point is that the product and business model have value, and the second point is that you have to have money to burn. Bogo should also know that even though Sina has been listed in the United States two years ago, it is now It’s still at a loss. This year, as long as you have money and find the right position, you can do any Internet product, but you have to endure a long period of struggle.” Chen Yizhe took a sip of water, and then continued, “Actually, Brother Hao, I I think it’s not bad for you to open an Internet cafe now, you can make more money than any Internet product in a short period of time.”

Yang Zhihao waved his hand, "There's a lot of competition. When I came back to Fengba last year, there were only two Internet cafes in the entire county. This year, not to mention other places, Majiewei has opened three in succession."

"Even if there are a few more rooms, the supply will be in short supply, right? You see that the downstairs is full of people." Chen Yizhe actually doesn't like places with many people.

"I'm afraid there will be more than a few. I suspect it will double next year. The threshold for the Internet cafe industry is too low. If you have money, you can come in." Yang Zhihao sighed. He opened the Internet cafe in March last year and invested 500,000 yuan. , bought more than 50 machines, and then paid back the capital in half a year. So far, the profit has actually reached almost one million. When he is engaged in this industry, he knows the violence in this industry, and the threshold of such a violent industry is so Low, then the future must be Internet cafes blooming everywhere.

"I think if you have money now, you'd better open a few more Internet cafes." Chen Yizhe paused and continued, "You must have heard about the Lan Jisu Internet Cafe that happened in Beijing in June this year, right?"

In the early morning of June 16 this year, a malicious revenge arson incident occurred in the HD District of BJ City, resulting in 25 deaths and 12 injuries to varying degrees. Such a major casualty accident was broadcast on CCTV. How could Yang Zhihao and Huang Yongbo, who are engaged in this industry, not know .

"It turns out that it's enough to have a good relationship with the street office." Yang Zhihao sighed, "But for a while now, six or seven departments have to take care of it, it's too tiring."

Chen Yizhe continued, "Then at the end of last month, Premier Zhu of UUkanshu www.uukanshu.com promulgated the "Regulations on the Management of Internet Access Service Business Places". Do you think this matter will end there?"

Without waiting for them to respond, Chen Yizhe shook his head and asked himself, "No, this is just to appease the broad masses of the people. I believe that the Ministry of Culture will definitely make big moves in the future, and the Internet cafe industry will face a complete overhaul."

"In my opinion, with the attitude of the Ministry of Culture, their way of regulating and rectifying this market is to decentralize and operate the Internet in a fragmented manner across the country, reducing the hundreds of thousands of individual Internet cafes to only a few dozen. The best way to achieve this goal is to 'chain'." Chen Yizhe thought about how many people complained about the Ministry of Culture's Weibo account and knew that some of the practices of the Ministry of Culture were indeed unpopular.

"According to what you said, it is estimated that the ones that can open a 'chain' are those enterprises with a background of state-owned enterprises." Huang Yongbo hit the nail on the head again.

"Bogo really has insight, and then the Ministry of Culture can strengthen the formalized management of Internet cafes by issuing licenses for chain Internet cafes operating nationwide." Chen Yizhe said with a smile, the ten national chain Internet cafes approved by the Ministry of Culture were all state-owned Brand-name companies, however, were confused, and in the end, most of them sold their license plates and left, creating a farce for the people of the country.

"Then what?" Brother Hao asked after finishing the tea.

"And then, it's difficult for private individuals to get a license next." Chen Yizhe took a sip of tea and continued, "That's why I suggested Brother Hao to open more Internet cafes and get more licenses during this time, and sell licenses instead of opening Internet cafes in the future. also make money.”

"I will open more Internet cafes, and then you will sell more Internet cafes with diskless systems. Is this your goal?" Brother Hao laughed.

"If Brother Hao and Brother Bo are willing, we can also sell it together." Chen Yizhe shrugged his shoulders and said indifferently.
