Chapter 944 Binding(1/2)
This Spring Festival, there are 117 overtime employees staying at the company.
On New Year's Eve, Ziweixing booked a large auditorium at the Jade Palace Hotel and set up ten tables for everyone to celebrate the Spring Festival together. Someone also arranged a program and performed on stage.
Zhou Buqi didn't go up, he just walked around the ten tables in turn and had a round of drinks with the employees.
It was originally a happy party.
But someone dragged him to talk about work.
Just returned from Japan, uc's chairman Yu Yongfu.
This guy drank a few glasses of white wine, his face was very red, but his mind was very clear: "UC browser passed SoftBank."
"oh?"
Zhou Buqi was a little surprised.
Yu Yongfu was drunk a little too high, smiling and his eyes almost became a line, "But they also have a condition. SoftBank owns 40% of Yahoo Japan's shares, and Masayoshi Son is the chairman of the board of directors of Yahoo Japan. They are all part of the same family.
If our browser wants to enter SoftBank's mobile phone retail business, it must set the default homepage of UC to Yahoo Japan. This is what they have done in the past."
Zhou Buqi nodded, "Yes, I have repeatedly emphasized that we must respect the local social culture and user habits, and don't learn from the arrogant style of Americans. We don't need to transform local customs, make value judgments, and follow the trend to make money."
That’s it.”
Yu Yongfu smiled and said: "However, we are not vegetarians!"
"oh?"
"The default homepage of UC Browser is definitely Yahoo Japan. However, there will be a default plug-in bar on the browser, which is our yikyak."
"Well, okay!"
Yu Yong replied: "Yahoo Japan has a sub-channel of yikyak, and there is a default shortcut entrance on the browser. As long as the uc browser can be rolled out smoothly, the mobile traffic entrance will be opened."
Japan's 3G network has been popular for many years, and there are more mobile Internet users than computer Internet users.
Therefore, building a website in Japan is different from that in China.
in the country, we mainly work on the PC side.
The mobile terminal mainly focuses on business, and the 2G network cannot provide many services.
In Japan, however, PC-side websites and mobile-side websites need to be developed at the same time. The general structure is the same, but the layout design needs to be different.
The speed of 3G network is not too fast, which means that many computer-side website functions have to be castrated on mobile-side websites. There are too many functions, the network speed is too high, and the loading time is too long.
Yu Yongfu said with a smile: "You are right about one thing. Most Japanese users are stupid. This is why they prefer feature phones to smart phones. Smart phones require more operation by themselves.
, it is very complicated to use. Function phones are set by the operator, and you can just use it directly. The uc browser opens an entrance for yikyak, which is equivalent to building a bridge across the river for mobile Internet users."
Zhou Buqi nodded, "If SoftBank passes it, we can operate under SoftBank's banner. We need to negotiate with other operators as soon as possible and roll out uc browser as soon as possible. This is free software and it is competitive."
Yu Yongfu was a little embarrassed and said: "If the operator purchases the browser from outside, it is easy. We provide it for free and they save a lot of money. However, some operators have their own software departments and make them themselves.
Mobile browser. This doesn’t work well.”
Zhou Buqi smiled and said: "That's easy, just wait! Once the economic crisis breaks out, all companies will be affected, especially Japan's overly traditional social model. Even if it is lifetime employment, under the financial tsunami, there must be
Massive layoffs. The uc browser is provided for free, which is a big help to them."
Yu Yong replied: "Well, we can design it along this line of thinking."
Zhou Buqi said: "By the way, what you said suddenly made me think of something. Japanese users are all stupid and sweet. Isn't this the same as domestic netizens in previous years?"
Yu Yongfu said with a smile: "In general, it's the same. Most people don't dare to do too complicated computer operations for fear of damaging the computer. The same goes for mobile phones. They don't even dare to uninstall or install them. They are all pre-installed by the operator."
Whatever, they use whatever it is.”
Zhou Buqi narrowed his eyes, "This is an opportunity!"
"Um?"
"A few years ago... well, before Micropoint Security Guard appeared, there was a super powerful virus-like marketing method in the domestic Internet market. With this trick, Taobao beat eBay to the ground.
Even if eBay buys out the advertising space on all major websites, it won’t work.”
"I'm going!"
Yu Yongfu's expression changed, and he immediately thought of something.
Rogue plugin!
All kinds of rogue plug-ins and rogue software are sweeping across netizens' computers crazily, using virus-like methods for marketing. This is of course very powerful.
There is a term in marketing called "viral marketing", and rogue plug-ins are true viral marketing.
This phenomenon has caused great distress and pain to netizens across the country.
Because of this, once Micropoint Security Guard is launched, it will quickly become popular all over the country, and the installation rate will reach 90% at its highest. This is because everyone has been deceived by rogue plug-ins and rogue software. This is a rigid demand.
Zhou Buqi waved his hand, "It's definitely not possible to copy from China, it's too much. However, with appropriate tricks, you can make some use of it. For example, design a yikyak plug-in. Cooperate with some software manufacturers. When users install this kind of software
, you can choose whether to install the yikyak plug-in."
"Bundle installation..."
Yu Yongfu nodded, this is much weaker in nature. Although it is somewhat irregular, it is permitted by the installation agreement and the user's consent, so it is not too rogue. Unlike the domestic ones in previous years.
Those plug-ins are all forced to be installed, installed secretly, and cannot be uninstalled.
Zhou Buqi said: "Let's study this plan. If it is feasible, it will be a big help to the promotion of yikyak. The mobile phone is bundled with the uc browser, and the computer side installs the yikyak plug-in through software sharing.
Enter the user's browser to facilitate users to access the website directly through the browser plug-in."
This kind of thing is definitely not possible in the country.
Similar operations have become notorious.
But Japan is fine.
They have never experienced the troubles of rogue software, forced installation of rogue plug-ins, inability to uninstall, and constant advertisement pop-ups, and their aversion to this kind of marketing behavior is not that strong.
Then it is very easy to operate.
It's all silly. When installing software, you usually just go to the next step, default all program settings, and then complete the installation. Then, the yikyak plug-in is installed in the browser.
Yu Yongfu pondered for a moment, "We can make a computer version of UC Browser. Well, change the skin and name of Microdot Browser, focusing on fast, simple and lightweight Internet access."
Zhou Buqi said: "Then let's do it! Take two paths together. On the one hand, we will launch the UC browser for PC, which will have the yikyak plug-in by default. On the other hand, we will cooperate with some commonly used software and put the yikyak plug-in on it. Do some research and apply for promotion.
Come up with the budget.”
It’s half past ten in the evening and the show is over.
Zhou Buqi went home to celebrate the Spring Festival.
The scene is very warm.
Mom, Aunt Liu, and Aunt Xue, these are the elders; Wen Zhixia, Shi Jinglin, Wu Yu and Xue Baoshan, these are the girlfriends; Zhou Nan, this is the young and beautiful girl; the sleeping little guy Zhou Nianyi, this
It's my daughter, my biological daughter.
They are all beautiful.
There was only one person who was an eyesore, his father Zhou Jianjun, who was sitting on the sofa watching the Spring Festival Gala.
I feel very irritable when I don't have a week.
How can a second man appear in my harem? Not even the Supreme Emperor! According to the rules in history books, he must be placed under house arrest.
Zhou Jianjun saw that he looked unhappy and asked strangely: "What are you doing?"
Zhou Buqi coughed lightly and said, "It's okay, Dad, this room is full of my women. Don't wander around and don't go upstairs. It's inconvenient..."
Zhou Jianjun glared angrily, "You bastard!"
Zhou Buqi was too lazy to pay attention to him, so he had to go and have a look.
The real owner is back. You can make dumplings and prepare for the New Year's Eve dinner.
Aunt Xue was a master of cooking, so she got up and went to the kitchen.
When it's ready, take it to the living room and make dumplings with the whole family.
Zhou Buqi also went to the kitchen, intending to make dumplings with his hands clean. He walked over and nervously asked in a low voice: "Aunt Xue, is my dad okay?"
Aunt Xue was puzzled, "I just said hello to him and didn't say much. What's wrong?"
"That's okay," Zhou Buqi breathed a sigh of relief, then said with a serious look, "I'll say it again, stay away from him. He's not reliable at all. You have a face, breasts, figure and temperament.
, I guess he must have some evil thoughts."
Aunt Xue was furious, "I think it's you who has evil thoughts, right? You are so..."
Then, I couldn't talk any more.
Zhou Buqi looked strange.
Aunt Xue's face turned red. She was afraid that others would hear her, so she lowered her voice and said, "You have something special. That's your dad. You have to respect him and respect your elders."
Zhou Buqi coughed lightly and said, "Aunt Xue, you may have misunderstood. I just like to make a little joke with you sometimes. I really don't have any evil thoughts."
"What are you talking about?" Aunt Xue's face turned red suddenly, and she looked back carefully, "You can go out, you are not needed here."
