The country is large and has a large population. To build a cloud computing center, you must do more.

If the distance is far, there will be delay; if the scale is small, there will be insufficient storage.

According to Ziweixing's plan for cloud computing business, within three years, three major cloud computing centers, one will be prepared, one will be held in the capital, Pengcheng and Chuncheng.

The total investment will reach 10 billion yuan.

In the next year, 2 billion yuan will be invested, which is a phase one project.

In another year, 3.5 billion yuan will be invested, which is the second phase of the project.

The third phase of the project was completed around 2010 and the remaining 4.5 billion yuan was invested.

Leaders and experts from various ministries and commissions, municipalities, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Institute of Computer Science and other institutions attach great importance to this major project.

The main reason is that Zhou Buyi’s PPT is good and can draw big pie.

In addition to its main business, Ziweixing's cloud computing platform will also involve some vertical fields, such as government cloud demonstration bases, industrial cloud platforms, police cloud platforms, medical cloud platforms, and education cloud platforms, which will promote online office and digital promotion in many important fields.

Especially the government cloud and the police cloud are crucial. Ordinary companies cannot play with them at all and need to obtain official certification.

Ziweixing has this advantage.

The construction of the platform is still far away. First, enclose land and build a building first!

In the morning, Zhou Buqi went to Yizhuang and saw a piece of land.

Talk to several leaders.

According to the plan, the capital's cloud computing center needs 8 data center modules, each module has 20,000 servers, and a total of 160,000 servers.

In order to ensure data security, each module must build a building.

In case the building catches fire, explodes or collapses, destroying all data.

This requires that the data center building cannot be built with high-rise buildings, the 4th or 5th floors are almost the same, and the lower floors are more reliable. Moreover, the building cannot be too close to each other.

There are also mountains nearby to prevent landslides; there are large rivers to prevent floods; there are no complex traffic to prevent traffic accidents... More importantly, there must be stable electricity and water supply.

In order to prevent accidental power and water disconnection, we also need to have our own generator module and reservoir.

In order to cool down the server, there is also a huge cooling device.

Many requirements.

The land requirements are also very high, and 160 acres of land are required.

Such a large piece of land must be outside the Fifth Ring Road.

The capital's cloud computing center has a budget of 2.5 billion yuan for the purchase cost of 160,000 servers alone. It also needs 500 million yuan to arrange a powerful cooling system. The remaining 1 billion yuan requires purchasing land, building buildings, operating expenses, risk prevention and control, and some infrastructure...

This requires the city to make concessions in land prices.

It is best to give it for free.

The leader did not agree.

It is already under great pressure to give Ziweixing such a large land support policy last time. The government must treat every company fairly, otherwise others will have opinions.

However, the land price will not be too much.

This is close to the Sixth Ring Road, and it is commercial land. The area is a bit larger, the price is only about 50 million, not too high. There is not only one voice in the city. Ziweixing has to pay a sum of money to block Youyou’s mouth.

Zhou Buqi agreed happily.

On the way back, I received a text message from Jiang Bingjie, which roughly means that she has recovered and has signed a contract with the company successfully. I want to invite the financial supporter’s father to dinner in the evening and express my gratitude.

Zhou Buqi thought this girl was quite interesting and grateful, and replied to the text message: "Where is Yang Mi?"

"She's back home, I'm in the company."

"Well, then call her together."

...

In the afternoon, Zhou Buqi held four meetings in a row, all of which were related to Friends.

The trend of "Happy Farm" is becoming increasingly obvious.

At present, there are more than 24 million players.

There are 14 million active players!

Among them, 5 million active users have only joined Friends.com in the past two months and are attracted by "Happy Farm". Driven by this increasingly popular web game, Friends.com has more than 75 million registered users.

More than 18 million daily active users!

The traffic generated every day exceeds 350 million.

For Friends, with traffic, everything is there.

Today is August 25th, and there are still a few days left for this month. But these few days are not counted, and the rough financial report of this month has also made great progress compared to last month.

Information flow advertising revenue increased by 15% from July to 160 million yuan; open platform revenue increased by 46% from July to 62 million yuan; Taobao channel transaction volume increased by 22%, order volume increased by 25%, commission revenue increased by 23%, reaching 29.5 million yuan; promotion service revenue increased by 120%, and exceeded 10 million yuan in one fell swoop.

Roughly estimated, the net profit of Friends this month may exceed 150 million yuan!

It’s a pity that the business of the open platform is not mature enough, with only more than 60 million in revenue, but it is used to distribute dividends, subsidies and commercial promotions, and no profit was generated.

At the development strategy meeting of Friends.com, Vice President Gao Jun said that Friends.com can achieve higher achievements and pursue higher goals. The popularity of "Happy Farm" is still in the fermentation stage and is far from reaching its peak. However, Friends.com must be based on the next explosive point.

The goal is clear - next year's Capital Olympics.

This is almost an opportunity that domestic Internet giants are competing for. Relevant departments and Olympic Organizing Committee are also actively promoting it to use this Olympic Games to show their style of a great power.

As the largest social network in China, Friends.com must respond to the call and actively participate in the reporting.

It's impossible not to participate.

Since we have to do it, we must do our best and take advantage of the Olympics to increase traffic.

The best way is to reach strategic cooperation with Sohu.

Sohu can be regarded as the "No. 1 Olympics in the Capital".

Recently, under the call of relevant departments, several major websites have launched a wave of preheating reports on the Olympics, and the results are clearly divided. Under the special reports of websites such as NetEase, Sina, Tencent, Global, Xinhua, CCTV, etc., the number of replies is about 1,000.

Sohu has 10 million.

Zhou Buqi will understand now.

No wonder Zhang Yiming called himself over to start this small meeting.

Taking advantage of the popularity of the Olympics, this little thing is worthy of Boss Zhou’s personal attention? Now I understand. I want him to come forward and settle Sohu in person.

Zhou Buqi pondered for a moment and immediately volunteered to accept the task.

Taking advantage of the popularity of the Olympics is not just about Friends.

Toutiao is also OK!

Weibo is even more awesome!

It's really important!

When he returned to the office, he called Zhang Chaoyang, but he was not in the company.

I made an appointment to go to the bar together in the evening and have a small gathering.

At around 6 o'clock in the evening, Zhou Buqi took Yang Mi and Jiang Bingjie out for Western food, which was a Spanish-style restaurant. Yang Mi looked embarrassed and said that she would go home tonight and could not stay overnight outside.

Boss Zhou is understanding and of course he won't make things difficult for her.

After finishing the meal at around 7 o'clock, he hurried back to his residence with them.

Don't waste time!

Jiang Bingjie was in a panic. When the financial owner's father stripped her and Sister Yang Mi stripped her clothes and put them together to make various looks, she wished she could take the pillow over and cover her face.

This big drama gave her a new understanding of life.

At around 8 o'clock, Yang Mi returned home.

At around 9 o'clock, Zhou Buqi and Jiang Bingjie put on their clothes and set off together to go to the bar!

Zhang Chaoyang's life is very casual.

Unlike other Internet giants who always work overtime at night, he never works at night. He usually just asks a group of friends, either go to KTV to sing, go to bars to drink, or just sauna and massage...

It would be fine if it was irregular, but Zhou Buqi could understand it. Many bosses in traditional industries also had social events at night, and basically they played irregularly.

But Lao Zhang plays green.

I really don't know what it means.

It is probably too high for mediocre fans to look down on them.

The bars that Lao Zhang went to were definitely not popular low-end bars like Houhai, Gongshi, and Sanlitun. He usually went to five-star hotels.

Tonight I chose the Aliya Bar at the Grand Hotel in China. It has luxurious decoration and a red and peach-wood-colored platform, giving people a simple and quiet feeling.

As soon as he arrived, Jiang Bingjie showed a little timid.

I feel that this place is too formal. There is a British singer on the stage, singing jazz, high-end... but I don't understand it. I feel embarrassed to come if I don't wear an evening dress.
To be continued...
