City: From Inheriting a Courtyard To a Giant

rta\u0026#;compared, the latter seems so cheap

But what Microsoft did was fill in the J. The concept of Wikipedia is subversive and crazy. Not only the user is free, but also his content provider is also free. , which is written entirely by volunteers. "

"At that time, encyclopedia experts believed that Wikipedia did not have the ability and funds to independently write an encyclopedia. Wikipedia's model was illogical

But now we look at it. Wikipedia has undoubtedly become the most authoritative encyclopedia in the world, and its visits are larger than Microsoft and Google. Wikipedia redefines the existing form of the encyclopedia, changing

Changed the rules of the whole game es”

Qin Yan smiled and said, "I can say with certainty that the price of Encarta will not_ drop any further. But this year, Microsoft will definitely shut down this business.

The reason is simple. As long as free ones exist on the market. No A is willing to spend money to buy a paid version.

All encyclopedia users have formed an inertia and want to know what content. Will log on to the Internet for the first time to search Wikipedia. "

"Wikipedia. It's not the first company to create an Internet encyclopedia, but why can it call on countless online names to contribute their knowledge. I said Wikipedia

Baike is a disruptive enterprise. Where did he subvert?

"When it comes to technology, Wikipedia really doesn't have any technical content. His website structure is extremely simple, and no one needs to work hard to build a platform. In the simplest website design, only one idea is needed to successfully dig out and implement it. mobilized the motivation of netizens to produce content.”.

"There are many examples like Wikipedia, and its core element is an open and popular Internet collaboration model: only open source and sharing can allow an Internet company to have more product content.

Qin Yan felt that this was the end of the story. Every time there was a meeting,

They will all be carried out first: Brainstorming, but as you talk, it will become the speech of others before you know it

Lu Kefa, everyone in the conference room is in a continent or the whole world. Only he - the one who stands above history above the dimension of time

Zheng An sighed deeply in his heart. Although he still didn't understand how to make the video website into cash, he could only lower his head and whisper to Cheng Ming next to him. "Our President Qin has such a mouth. I think the only one in the industry who can compete with him is Boss Ma who is suffering from a headache. But compared with our old lady. 2 He can't speak, okay? "Cheng Ming said.

"Uh." Zheng An

For a moment, he was speechless and ignored this sycophant._Looking at Qin Yan again, "Our boss Qin, I have benefited a lot from listening to him."

Everyone in the conference room looked at Qin He's people, except for admiration.

why do you always have such good ideas

.

Time went back to the afternoon, above the dinner party. Zheng An articulated the questions that had been in his mind all afternoon:

"Mr. Qin. In the afternoon, I took time to understand the development history and current situation of Wikipedia. Our HonllengVi dea. There is no problem following this model.

but the problem is

. Wikipedia has not been commercialized until today.. It is difficult to survive by relying on feelings and crowdfunding. Of course, Wikipedia is not a profit-making enterprise. It is equivalent to a non-profit charity organization, which cannot realize the huge user base. This is his fatal weakness. "

Zheng An took a sip of red wine. Solemnly

"Wikipedia can't be realized either. He and the others chose to commercialize. This is their end."

After hearing this, the others nodded secretly. The executives at the dining table were also a little worried about the future of HongLengKi deo. Zheng An continued,

"So I worry

,Hello Hello hello. Will Hongmeng Video IHnellengVidea use Wikipedia's development method to finally face the embarrassing situation that Wikipedia cannot be commercialized?

If there is no such risk, how can we achieve a perfect balance between users, content, and monetization?"

After Zheng An finished speaking, everyone else at the table put on an attitude of listening attentively and waiting for an explanation. ,

Qin Yan smiled slightly. Said very calmly. "It's very simple. In our business, traffic is always king.

No traffic. No matter how good the project is, it is meaningless.

Doing encyclopedia does not make money. But his traffic is too much. Why should I insist on carrying Hongmeng Encyclopedia on Hongmeng Search?

What I am pursuing is not how much economic benefits the product can directly bring.. but to enrich the entire Hongmeng search engine. A He really can't generate profit. But it must be there. "

"If you have to ask the reason, it is to increase the user experience.. In the end, Hongmeng Search will seize the domestic search engine market and let the search engine have K-long vitality and vitality.,

"As the founder of the company, I didn't get a month's salary, I'm not interested in money, I've never touched money...

.”

"The topic goes back to Wikipedia. Think about it. Wikipedia doesn't make money, so why does Google insist on donating money to it? Google seems to be the dominant search engine in the world, but it still keeps donating money to Wikipedia. Isn't this worth pondering_9"

"In a word, as long as you have traffic, you don't have to worry about finding opportunities to monetize. HonglengVide is different from Wikipedia."

Qin Yan looked at Zheng An, "Don't worry, cultivate the market and users first. After the website has _ content and scale, then buy film and television drama copyrights from major European and American film companies. Isn't this going to be able to realize it?

"

"Still keeping Chen Cang in the dark!"

Zheng An looked at Qin Yan I with some astonishment, and immediately wrote bitterly: _"Okay. Sure enough, it is worthy of being praised by Silicon Valley,-" Global Internet Product Manager NO.! ".I'm completely convinced. I find that my ideas don't work at all."

He felt a little frustrated. He thought that he was more or less a think tank and a decision maker by Qin Yan's side. , but is only an executor from beginning to end.

Speaking of which, Silicon Valley Magazine praised Qin Yan as an "Internet giant". It can be changed completely - an "Internet Godfather", "Internet Mentor", "Internet Emperor"

More domineering names like "Emperor".

If Qin Yan knew what Zheng An was thinking. I'm afraid it was him who smiled wryly.

Now that I am so young, it would be inappropriate to be called godfather or mentor no matter what. People who don't know him think he is an old-fashioned old guy.

And the title of "Internet giant" is very appropriate. The first impression given to people is that this person is not only awesome. And still very young.

.With Qin Yan's current achievements, a more domineering name is of course acceptable, but it is not necessary to immediately

Next, we didn't talk much about work. Just eat, drink and be happy. _

454 Practice Magic Together, Times Have Really Changed (4/7)

Qin Yan didn't go back to the courtyard, but went to Andy's house. Oh and Zou Yu.

At this time, it was already ten o'clock in the evening.

After a simple wash, Qin Yan returned to the living room in his nightgown and watched two women sitting on the sofa not far away, drinking red wine and chatting.

Qin Yan smiled, knowing that he could have a big meal at night - \u0026 the meat was finished.

I really wanted to walk over, but the two women got up at the same time with a tacit understanding, giggling and ran away
