MTL - Back To 1995-Chapter 951 The wind is rustling and the water is cold

  Chapter 951 The wind is rustling and the water is cold

  Blog is not a new term. It can even be said to be the earliest product of the Internet. It appeared two years earlier than Song Yang's entry into the Internet.

Even when the Internet was booming, there were a large number of hosting companies for websites and blogs. These hosting companies provided servers, domain names, and even webpage editing. As long as you paid the hosting company, the hosting company would create and open a private blog for it. .

In the past few years, the hype has been quite hot, but blogs have not had any "rules" these years, and many people even regard this thing as a "diary on the Internet". .

And many American celebrities have also launched various blogs of their own. Many people post their photos, poems, essays, and even science fiction diaries on their personal blogs. There is no unified brand. In the past few years, although some influential personal blogs have appeared and attracted many users, that’s all. The entire blog industry is still a barren land. In the Internet industry, only It can be regarded as a niche industry.

Hearing that Song Yang wanted to start a blog, Wesley did not dare to question Song Yang's decision, but frowned and said, "Blogs have become quite popular in recent years, but...there is not much market, and even those hosting companies , is also a serious loss!"

  As soon as these words came out, Song Yang couldn't help but glanced at Wesley appreciatively. It seems that Wesley has indeed lived a life of value in recent years.

Whether it is a blog or later Twitter, they all face a problem, that is, profit, because the webpage of the blog is so large, and the content is so small. Think about opening a webpage, which is full of advertisements. Look at ten Word, browse a minute ad? !

  Compared with the number of advertisements, the number of webpages of portal websites and search engines can beat blogs, and naturally there are much more advertisements.

  “ICQ needs more traffic if it wants to maintain its status as the king of social networking. Twitter and Skype don’t need to make too much money, and they can even make a small loss, as long as they can bring traffic back to ICQ!”

Song Yang said to Wesley, sometimes, certain things are not directly measured by the amount of money earned, as long as half of the entire Internet traffic is controlled, in the Internet social networking industry, a large area of ​​territory belongs to ICQ, ICQ will Mastered the pricing power of this line.

As for other brand companies, if they want to advertise in the social industry, whether they advertise on ICQ, Skype or Twitter, they are all in the same pot. If the meat is rotten, it is also rotten in the same pot. Or ICQ.

Wesley's teeth were sore for a while, feeling that Song Yang's game of chess was a bit big, and obviously, ICQ would not only launch three social brands, ICQ, Twitter, and Skype. In order to maintain its position and market share, it must We will continue to acquire and launch new social brands!

"The Twitter launched by ICQ will redefine the entire Twitter industry. Twitter will launch computer and mobile versions at the same time. A tweet can only post 140 characters, whether it is text or pictures or videos that do not exceed a certain period of time. GIF image.

   As for what Twitter content the user wants to post, it is up to the user to decide. No matter what they post about their daily life, what they do, where they travel, or what they see, they can post it on Twitter.

  What Twitter needs to do is to let people in America and even the whole world use Twitter to share their daily life and knowledge.

  Everyone is their own director, and Twitter is the stage for that performance! "

  Listening to Song Yang's request, Wesley nodded and memorized everything. He didn't know what would happen to the two new products that Song Yang requested to develop after they were launched.

  If it doesn’t work out, it’s not going to be a blow to ICQ, but it will allow other social platforms to further narrow the gap with ICQ, and even come to the same starting line.

   And if Twitter and Skype can reach the grand occasion that swept the world after the launch of ICQ, then the entire ICQ will be even more powerful. In a short period of time, no one will be able to challenge the position in the social industry!

   "The research and development of Twitter and Skype will be launched next year, and ICQ will launch new products every year in the future!"

  Song Yang explained to Wesley that the next ICQ is expected to be as productive as the old sow, and new products will be launched every year in the future. If there is no challenger, ICQ will create a challenger by itself.

  Facebook, LinkedIn, INS, Burn After Reading, etc. When the Internet speed increases, Youtube, Douyin and other short video platforms can also start to operate.

   No matter what the social industry is like, it is enough to ensure that the meat is rotten in one pot. There is a pot of broth on the left and right, and it will not be cheaper for other opponents!

ICQ occupies the social industry, plus the media business in hand, if there is an opportunity to include the divorced Time Warner, then ICQ will own ICNC, NBC, and Time Warner. In the social business, in the future in America, you will have the absolute right to speak, and you will no longer be afraid of being silent.

   On the contrary, as long as you are wronged, you can use its social platforms and media platforms to shout all over the world, not only to let American people know that you have been wronged, but also to hear it all over the world!

   "The latest news from Silicon Valley, ICQ recently officially announced the launch of the new employee induction plan. The first batch of recruits has exceeded 850, becoming the first Internet giant company in America to formally recruit new employees.

  The person in charge of the San Jose Municipal Office announced that ICQ is expected to provide jobs for 5,000 to 13,000 people within two years, and the Internet has begun to recover! "

   The Wall Street Journal was the first to report the news, claiming that ICQ was once again recruiting engineers everywhere.

   Immediately afterwards, the San Jose Daily and the Oakland Tribune and other media also released news one after another, "ICQ has launched a new project!"

   "It has been more than three years since ICQ was released. ICQ has started new product development again. Can it perform the miracle of ICQ?"

  “Two products are launched at one time. According to sources, ICQ is expected to develop two new products. At present, ICQ has acquired a number of patents related to the blog industry…”

  As soon as ICQ made a move, rumors began to spread. The stock price of ICQ, which fluctuated up and down all day, also rose sharply.

  Although I don’t know what kind of bird ICQ can develop, the shadow of the famous tree, Song Yang personally supervised the battle this time, made many people think about it.

After all, Song Yang's record since his debut is really too brilliant. From the earliest double-click company, to Hotmail mailbox, to ICQ, Xueleshan online game platform, PayPal payment, almost every time, he is leading the trend of the Internet, changing even Created a new industry!

   Now that he is out of the mountain again and is back in ICQ, many Internet people are looking forward to it. They don't know how much skill Song Yang, who is obsessed with cutting leeks, has left in the past few years.

There is never a shortage of geniuses in the internet industry, but too many have fallen. When Song Yang first debuted, he was known as a "genius", but Hotmail, PayPal, etc. were all from Song Yang's "early years". The product, which has not been hanging out on the Internet in the past few years, now that it has entered the Internet industry again, Song Yang will prove himself again, or will he fall, and there is a lot of speculation in Silicon Valley for a while.

   "The Enron Group case will officially start tomorrow in the Houston Federal Court. There are rumors that the Federal Department of Justice will initiate a lawsuit against 29 executives of the Enron Group, including President Kenneth!"

  After returning to the villa, during the meal, a sudden report on the TV attracted the attention of Song Yang, Greg and others.

  Watching the news on TV, both Song Yang and Geleike could feel the current situation of An Ran, and they might be in danger.

   "Now it's up to Kenneth to see if he can shut up Enron's executives. If he can withstand the pressure from the Federal Department of Justice, Enron can live a few more days.

  If the little cowboy really becomes the great commander, he might be able to save An Ran and Kenneth's lives..."

   As soon as Greg said this, the words on the TV news made both Greg and Song Yang stunned.

  "In an unexpected situation in Houston, Baxter, the vice chairman of Enron, suddenly fell from the building. There are rumors that he jumped off the building on his own initiative."

The hosts in the news also obviously just received the news, and their faces were very serious, "The investigation team of the Federal Department of Justice, which is in charge of investigating Enron's financial fraud, suddenly announced the news that it has reached a plea agreement with nine Enron executives, including... who just resigned. Jeff Skilling of Enron's presidency!"

   "Enron Group is over!"
