Chapter 200 New Project is Coming

[Family members, who understands? The WIFI master key saves your life! ]

[Mom no longer has to worry about my data usage being insufficient! ]

[People all over the world have suffered from data traffic for a long time! What a magical tool! ]

【.】

Under Yang Xiao's arrangement, a group of soft-text writers within Shiguang Culture Media Company immediately promoted this APP on major platforms.

The number of users of WIFI Master Key has exploded in the past two days, and it ranks first in downloads in the app store every day.

The data growth is encouraging.

After the plane landed in Shenzhen.

After a night's rest, Yang Xiao immediately rushed to his office in Shenzhen Science and Technology Building.

"Boss Yang, you are finally back."

Yang Xiao nodded and asked casually: "Well, how many users do we have now?"

“Today is the fourth day since its launch, and the number of users has exceeded three million.”

In Qingsong Internet Technology Company, Huang Zhengfei's team and others were excited when they saw Yang Xiao.

The great results achieved by this popular APP have made them all full of confidence, as if they had taken stimulants.

However, Yang Xiao's expression did not change. All this was within his expectations.

After all, before it was officially launched, it was already being used by over a million people.

It is normal to have this effect with soft-text promotion on various platforms and spontaneous publicity by users.

Huang Zhengfei was a little puzzled at this time.

With this kind of data, wouldn’t the boss be happy?
This boss is too careless. He doesn’t even seem to care about the product launch?

Looking at Yang Xiao’s indifferent expression, it seemed as if he had expected this result?
I can only say that he is worthy of being the boss. Even though he is young, his mentality is very stable.

Much stronger than him.

Well, there is a reason why I failed in my own business.

"Well, keep working on it."

Yang Xiao didn't know that Huang Zhengfei was imagining something, so he said, "Boss Huang, call the heads of the technical department and the advertising and marketing department, and let's have a meeting in the small conference room."

After saying that, Yang Xiao turned and walked towards the meeting room nearby.

Huang Zhengfei went to other offices and called Fei Jie from the technical department and Guo Haiping who was in charge of the advertising and marketing department. The three of them walked in one after another.

Even though Huang Zhengfei is now a vice president, he still looks pitiful and has to go and call people in person.

He doesn't even have an assistant at the moment.

There is no other way. There are only about 10 to 20 people in the company, and some of them are interns.
Insufficient staffing!

After Yang Xiao saw everyone gathered.

He first looked at Huang Zhengfei and Fei Jie.

“How stable is the current product?”

"No problem."

Hearing this, Yang Xiao nodded and turned to look at Guo Haiping from the advertising and marketing department.

“How many ad slots are currently open?”

"Five."

“Where are they located?”

“Interstitial, Banner at the top and bottom, static in the middle.”

After Guo Haiping finished speaking, Yang Xiao shook his head.

"Not enough, not enough, give me more advertising space!"

not enough?
Several people in the conference room originally felt that five ad slots were too many and even affected the user experience.

Yang Xiao ignored everyone's expressions:
"Make me a five-second splash screen ad, and then let advertisers bid on it. Also, the contract period can't be too long. As we have more and more users, the price will have to be higher. Or we can do a tiered advertising revenue sharing settlement."

"In addition to the splash screen ads, let me rotate the interstitial ads. In short, put ads in all places where they can be put!"

Fei Jie was a little worried and said, "Oh no, Mr. Yang, will users be too disgusted? Will it affect the reputation of the product?"

"Don't worry, everyone should change their mindset. Our product is unique and is a magical tool for the benefit of users. No matter how much they criticize us, users will still love us! They can't do without us!"

Yang Xiao waved his hand and looked around at everyone.

"Here, by the way, I would like to announce something. When I was in Yanjing the day before yesterday, I received a call from a venture capital firm, expressing interest in our WIFI Master Key product and wanting to discuss financing with me. They plan to offer 40 million yuan for % of the shares."

Hearing this, Huang Zhengfei and others present couldn't help but straighten their backs and look at Yang Xiao with their ears perked up, expecting the next good news he would say.

In less than two months, the market value of this product reached 1.25 million.

If, as Yang Xiao said, venture capital comes to negotiate, this market-certified price will make them excited.

This shows that their product has potential!

It is really exciting to be so optimistic about capital!
However, Yang Xiao's next words poured cold water on them.

"But I just told them to get out because it was so far from what I expected. My product was valued at 100 million at the beginning, and now with a few million more users, it's an extra 25 million. What do I want?"

"."

Everyone present rolled their eyes in their hearts. How the hell can this be the same valuation as when you first invested?

Don’t you have any idea of ​​how much your valuation premium is?

The reference value is actually not that great!

Now it has passed the market certification of real money, isn’t it great?
But no matter what, the venture capital firm wanted 40% of the shares in one go, which is indeed a bit too much.

But this can all be negotiated!

Isn’t there bargaining when buying vegetables at the market?

Did Mr. Yang refuse without any intention of negotiating?
Yang Xiao could see all the changes in everyone's expressions at this moment.

He smiled faintly and spread his hands, "Everyone, unfortunately, I have no plans to accept financing for the time being. Without 100 million users, it is impossible for me to consider financing and selling shares."

"One hundred million?"

"No way, Mr. Yang, are you serious?"

Huang Zhengfei recalled the small goal of "one hundred million" that Yang Xiao had mentioned at the beginning of the project, and he felt unhappy.

Mr. Yang, it’s fine if you just made promises at the beginning, but why are you really doing it now?

100 million users?
In their opinion, it will take a long time.

"if not?"

Yang Xiao looked at everyone and said, "This is why I plan to open up more advertising space. We are currently only making profits from advertising, and we will consider capital financing later. I can guarantee that everyone here will be at least a millionaire by then, so let's work hard together!"

When Yang Xiao talked about being approached by venture capitalists, he was not bragging.

Someone actually asked for his contact information and wanted to invite Yang Xiao to sit down and talk.

However, he only asked about the preliminary price tentatively. Just as Huang Zhengfei and others thought, there was room for negotiation.

However, for this kind of thing, we can actually estimate the final bottom line.

It is far from meeting Yang Xiao's requirements.

Furthermore, even if you give him 1 billion now and ask him to sell it, he would not be willing to do so.

With his current operational capabilities, WIFI Master Key will definitely develop much faster than the original time and space!

At that time, you can also choose to continue operating the business, whether it is transforming and listing, or withdrawing early and selling it to someone else.

It’s all workable space.

It's far more than just a few hundred million.

So short-sighted.

At this time, Huang Zhengfei and others were still immersed in the fresh pie that Yang Xiao had painted for them.

Financing and listing millionaires.

Wow, the pancake is still steaming.

Those present were all veterans, but when they heard Yang Xiao’s grand goal, they still felt their heads buzzing.

It seems that the 100 million users mentioned earlier is not a big problem.

Think about the products they worked hard and overtime to make.

The speed at which WIFI Master Key spreads is like a virus, which gives them some confidence.

"Ahem, don't think this is the end. In addition, I plan to set up a new project and make a new product." Oh? What new ideas does Mr. Yang have?
Although this young man in front of me speaks arrogantly, he is indeed capable.

Everyone was staring at him and listening attentively.

Yang Xiao smiled and said, "Of course, I just have an idea and want to share it with you all."

"Mr. Yang, please tell me."

"In fact, it was also inspired by WIFI Master Key. During our internal testing period, when I was browsing the forum, I found that in addition to downloading from our website, many people actually downloaded through sharing installation packages between users."

"I'm thinking, can we continue to make a mobile app that allows users to transfer information between mobile phones in some way? For example, transfer application installation packages, or even photos, MP3 songs, novel texts, and even videos in the mobile phone? And the transmission method, such as Bluetooth? Will it work?"

Yang Xiao finished speaking slowly, and Fei Jie and other technical backbones looked at Yang Xiao in shock.

Yeah, why didn’t we think of that?

The boss is indeed a genius!
"But... Bluetooth doesn't seem to work? It can't support multiple people transmitting messages to each other, and the stability and transmission rate of Bluetooth are also big problems."

“Yes, and the Bluetooth compatibility between mobile phones is also a big problem.”

"."

As soon as the idea of ​​Bluetooth was proposed, the technicians thought for a moment and then began to refute Yang Xiao.

This assumption is simply not feasible.

Yang Xiao smiled and looked at everyone who was expressing their opinions.

This is starting to get anxious.

I'm just throwing out some ideas.

Then, Yang Xiao pressed the air, signaling everyone to be quiet.

"If Bluetooth doesn't work? Can we build our own hotspots through WLAN? Let's build a new transmission channel between users. Is this theory feasible?"

Hearing this, everyone fell silent again.

They are really considering the feasibility of this matter seriously.

It seems that this is really possible in theory!

The hotspot coverage and transmission speed of WLAN seem to be much better than the transmission channel of Bluetooth.

Damn, that's a genius idea!
Yang Xiao looked at the people headed by Huang Zhengfei and asked, "Is it okay?"

"Theoretically, this is really possible!"

"Okay, let's do it."

"what?"

"Is this so careless?"

"Is there anything better than a great concept? These days, this concept should still be worth millions, right?"

"really."

Huang Zhengfei couldn't refute.

Yang Xiao’s projects one after another can make money just by taking out the concepts.

In comparison, their original team is still a mess after several years of hard work.

It’s really infuriating to see people compare to each other.

Yang Xiao has the strength and confidence to refuse venture capital.

Young man, what's wrong with being a little angry?
After thinking about it, Huang Zhengfei seemed to feel that he had regained some of the energy and spirit he had when he just graduated from college.

An Internet company must have the same awesome energy as Mr. Yang!

At this time, Yang Xiao picked up the black pen behind him and wrote two words on the whiteboard.

“Since the painting can be made in theory, I have already thought of a name for this product.
——Just call it [Quick Tooth]!"

"Quick Teeth? Mr. Yang, does this name have any special meaning?"

"Well, there is no special meaning. It just means it is faster than Bluetooth! Isn't it easy to understand? Ordinary users will know what it means as soon as they hear it."

"Good name!"

"Boss Yang, you are such a genius at naming!"

Yang Xiao was not impressed by the blunt flattery of these programmers. He waved his hand and prepared to disband the meeting.

"Okay, now that we have the concept, let's do it."

"Mr. Yang, the WIFI Master Key has just been launched, and I'm afraid we don't have enough manpower here." Huang Zhengfei said hesitantly with an embarrassed look on his face.

After everyone left, Yang Xiao walked up to Huang Zhengfei and sat down next to him.

"Old Huang, you're not going to hire someone again, are you?"

"Now that this new project is online, shouldn't we hire a few people appropriately?"

"Old Huang, we are short of funds now, and we have to start new projects, so we have to spend money sparingly. Besides, aren't we not accepting financing just to let the brothers make more money in the future? If the pie gets bigger, won't we be the biggest beneficiaries?"

The biggest beneficiary is you, right? Huang Zhengfei thought to himself.

Our entire team combined only accounts for 2%.

And we agreed at the beginning that after the WIFI Master Key project is completed, we will let everyone take a break, right?

How come the second project came so quickly?
The WIFI Master Key was able to be launched so quickly, all thanks to the brothers who worked overtime and all night long.

Several employees have visibly bruised skin.

But Yang Xiao played the emotional card, and as the vice president, he couldn't say anything.

Because this second project has the same concept as WIFI Master Key.

They are all tools with unlimited prospects!

He gets motivated when he thinks about it.

Yang Xiao continued, "Old Huang, the weather in Shenzhen is hot. I know that some employees rent houses without air conditioning. How about this? The company purchases a batch of folding beds and lets them sleep in the company at night. They can enjoy the air conditioning for free. We can also build an extra shower room. The company will provide shampoo and shower gel. Isn't that good enough?"

"."

Huang Zhengfei's mouth twitched and he was speechless.

"How about this, Mr. Yang, I will go and do some ideological work for the employees."

"Well we have a difficult task, so I'll leave it to you."

In fact, Yang Xiao didn’t get the idea for Kuaiya from users sharing it on Tieba.

Rather, it is the number of user downloads previously seen at the company.

The app store download volume these days basically does not refer to the mobile app store.

It’s a mobile application store on PC!

Because WIFI is not very convenient and the data is not enough.

If users want to download a mobile app, they can’t just download it whenever they want.

Basically, everyone finds a computer, connects the mobile phone to the computer with a USB data cable, and downloads the software on the computer.

At this time, many mobile phone manufacturers were still in the start-up stage.

There is no built-in supporting app store of their own brand, and even some of the built-in app stores are mostly ignored.

Most people install apps on their smartphones through third-party app stores.

For example, on the PC side today, there is an application called "Wandoujia", which is now very popular on the entire Internet.

At the same time, other applications such as [360 Mobile Assistant] and [Huawei Mobile Assistant] were also born following the trend.

These software were originally designed to facilitate users to download apps, including syncing files, photos and some other small tools to facilitate user use.

The largest number of downloads of Yang Xiao’s WIFI Master Key comes from these third-party platforms.

It was this incident that reminded Yang Xiao of this tool APP.

Although the number of users is not as large as WIFI Master Key.

But at the same time, it is also an extremely awesome software.

They can be considered as one the eldest and the other the second in command.

Moreover, they are all products that flourished in the same era and then declined in the same era.

In this case, Yang Xiao decided to do it all at once.

After finishing the explanation here, Yang Xiao became an idle person again.

After pretending to be the boss for two days, he went to the train station to pick up Li Yuanbao and Zhou Hongyu who came by train from Lincheng.

Well, the new students will be enrolled soon.
