My rebirth is different

Cai Congxin blurted out: "Internet media."

Indeed, with the growing number of Facebook users, media attributes have become more prominent. Nowadays, many netizens do not go to portal websites to read news and find hot spots, but instead read them on Facebook.

"Then do you think the European and American governments will rest assured that a company with a Chinese background will control their Internet media?" Yu Wenfei asked with a smile.

Cai Congxin suddenly realized that it was because of this reason!

But after thinking about it, it’s not right. Even if Facebook’s North American company is separated from the mainland company, the largest shareholder is still Yu Wenfei, a native of China. Isn’t that still a Chinese-funded company?

"President Fei...isn't that still the same thing? Or...do you plan to introduce some new shareholders?" Cai Congxin asked.

"By the way, if Facebook enters the European and American markets, it must introduce new shareholders. Of course, these new shareholders are European and American capital. Otherwise, Facebook's development in Europe and the United States must be very difficult." Yu Wenfei shook his head and smiled.

The media industry, no matter what country it is in, is sensitive.

Of course, the same is true for WeChat. If WeChat wants to go global in the future, it will inevitably set up a company abroad and introduce capital from Europe and the United States, just like Facebook.

Yu Wenfei has a deep understanding of foreign markets, and he will not make some low-level mistakes.

As for the Facebook game, because it belongs to the game industry, it doesn't matter. It is not a sensitive industry, and generally no one will make trouble.

Cai Congxin just mentioned this matter first today, as a foreshadowing, and the real details will be discussed after a meeting of the board of directors.

After talking about this, Cai Congxin no longer delays Yu Wenfei's time, but he knows that there are still a few bosses waiting to report to Yu Wenfei, so he got up and left.

…………

As soon as Cai Congxin went out, Li Xin walked in.

For WeChat Technology, Yu Wenfei is the CEO himself, and Li Xin is the vice president, in charge of technology.

However, Yu Wenfei has recently focused on the new Lenovo Group, and the WeChat technology has been handed over to Li Xinlai.

Walking into the office, Li Xin's face was not very good-looking, and he said, "Mr. Fei, the situation is still not very good. Recently, the number of new WeChat users has been decreasing, and the number of daily and weekly active users can't be increased. And QQ gap is still very large.

Logically speaking, it shouldn’t be. Whether it’s stability or user experience, I think WeChat is much better than QQ.I don't know why, but users just don't buy it.According to statistical information, especially among the younger user groups, QQ is significantly ahead. Our user groups are relatively older. "

After listening to Li Xin's report, Yu Wenfei just smiled and wasn't too worried.

"Didn't I tell you before that WeChat is unlikely to surpass QQ in the short term. After all, they have been in business for several years, and this first-mover advantage is still huge. Our WeChat, although it is backed by the traffic mountain of Facebook , but it will take time to catch up with QQ. Don’t worry, take it step by step.”

But Li Xin still did not give up, and continued: "Is there no other way? This is instant messaging on the Internet. I am very worried that those QQ users will develop a habit of using it. Could it be higher?"

As of the end of December, although there were quite a few companies in the domestic online instant messaging market, it was roughly a situation where Tencent and WeChat competed for supremacy. The original "second" MSN's market share was basically eroded by WeChat. .

Therefore, WeChat also replaced MSN's position and became the second child in the instant messaging industry, and it also took away some of Tencent's users.

But generally speaking, QQ is still firmly in the first place, with the number of registered users approaching [-] million and active users approaching [-] million.

And WeChat has more than 6000 million registered users and [-] to [-] million active users.

If you have to find a way, it’s not impossible, but the commotion was a bit big, Yu Wenfei pondered for a moment before saying: “Let me think about this matter, and I’ll talk about it after a while. You continue to focus on the software version. Updates, especially the software on the mobile phone, must make users feel very easy to use!"

In that era, button phones were still the world. It was not impossible to use instant messaging software such as QQ and WeChat on mobile phones, but it was indeed a bit troublesome to use.

WeChat is okay, thanks to the strong technical team and Yuwenfei's strict requirements for user experience, users have given praise after using it, saying that it is much easier to use than QQ's mobile terminal.

However, Yu Wenfei was still not satisfied, so he asked Li Xin to continue to work hard and strive to do better.

After Li Xin is Ai Fei, after Ai Fei is Dong Xiaoxue, Dong Xiaoxue has not yet left, and Yang Yuanqing has arrived over there, waiting in line to report to work...

This is Yu Wenfei's daily life, busy, boring and boring.

However, the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility. While enjoying the huge wealth and applause, Yu Wenfei must also shoulder these burdens.

…………

When Yu Wenfei was very busy in the company, a big event was happening in Shanghai Magic City. The 2003 WCG finals were in full swing!

Today is the last day of the competition. Before the finals start, the sale of commemorative skins will also stop, and a number will be fixed there on the store page.

"84093823"!

Eighty-four million dollars!

The prize money allocated to the competition is 200 million U.S. dollars.

This number blinded everyone's eyes. In history, let alone e-sports competitions, even if all competitions are included, there is no such high prize money in any competition!

Of course, it also made all the participating teams excited. If they can win the championship in this competition, it can be said that they really got rich overnight.

According to the bonus system of this competition, the CS project will exclusively account for 70.00% of the total prize pool, the Warcraft project will account for 20.00%, and the StarCraft project will only account for [-]%.

This is also distributed according to the number of game players and the number of participants. CS is the hottest game with the greatest influence and the widest audience. It is also the most watched project in this WCG finals.

In addition, according to the statistics of Facebook Game Company, in this bonus pool, CS players contribute the most amount!

Warcraft is relatively inferior, but there are still many loyal players in Asia, the United States and Europe. As for StarCraft, there are too many niche players, except for Chinese and Korean players. The influence is not as good as before.

Based on 200 million US dollars, the bonus allocated to the CS project has also reached 900 million, nearly 3000 million!

In the CS project, a total of 64 top teams were selected from all over the world, and they came to Shanghai for live competitions.

All teams selected for this global finals will have a basic bonus of 640 US dollars!This part totaled [-] million US dollars.

The 64 teams were divided into four groups, with sixteen teams in each group. The round-robin points system was used to fight each other. The top four in each group qualified. The competition was quite fierce.

Then, the top 40 teams that qualify from the group will receive an additional reward of US$ 640 per team, totaling US$ [-] million.

In other words, as long as you can enter the top 50 in the world, [-] US dollars will already be in your hands!

This amount is more than the previous WCG championship bonus!

After subtracting these two 640 million US dollars, there is still at least 600 million US dollars left in the prize pool. These are the prize money for the champion, runner-up, and third place.

The champion can take away 1000 million US dollars!

The runner-up can take away 400 million US dollars!

The third runner-up can take away 200 million US dollars!

…………

In the evening, when Yu Wenfei held a banquet and invited several bosses of the branch company, Effie was absent because she was going to attend the closing ceremony of the WCG finals tonight.

Originally, she wanted to invite Yu Wenfei to go, but Yu Wenfei didn't agree, so Effie had to go by herself.
