For Zhou Buqi, work is a way of life and a way to relax, no different from running, chatting, or playing games.

During the long holidays, many people have gone out for travel, and most of the senior executives have also left.

Boss Zhou comes to the company almost every day.

A different sense of belonging is the difference between a boss and an employee. When you come to the company every week, it's like going home. If you don't go for a day, you feel like something is missing.

On this day, Wang Xiaochuan came over to report that Weidian's new product "Microdian Mirror" would be launched soon.

Micro-mirror is a function that can store third-party web pages.

The function is very powerful.

For example, when users open a certain web page, they do not need to make continuous jumps. They only need to complete the transition in Weidian's own server to read the web page content cached in its own server.

The page opening speed will become faster, which can improve the user experience.

For example, many web pages have disappeared due to various reasons, and the corresponding content has been lost. Once users need this kind of content, they will no longer be able to see it.

"Micro-dot mirroring" has previously stored the text of this web page in its own server, so even if the original web page is lost, users can still find it.

Improved search success rate and user experience.

For example, many small websites have very small servers. Once a large amount of traffic flows in and exceeds the server load, the website will crash.

Xiaonei.com encountered this problem in the early days, and later purchased the service of Wangsu to solve the problem. However, the price of purchasing the service of Wangsu was not low, and many small websites could not afford the cost.

"Micro-dot mirroring" can solve this problem.

When a user accesses this small website through Weidian, he does not directly enter the original website, but enters Weidian's own cache. This means that it is Weidian's server that carries this part of user traffic, not the small website's.

Server. Only when the user wants to further use the website, will the server jump from the microsite server to the server of the small website.

This greatly relieves the server load pressure on the website.

This is not only true for small websites, but also for many large websites. Even for large websites such as Tianya and Maopu, once a popular network incident occurs, the server will be congested and the web page cannot be opened.

Microdot imaging can help them solve this problem.

Of course, there are limits to how Weidian can help bear the traffic. According to Wang Xiaochuan, if the daily traffic is less than 50,000 pv, it is free. If it exceeds 50,000, Weidian will not care. The original website wants Weidian to help bear more traffic.

For large traffic loads, you have to pay for services.

Through Weidian's stable and large-scale server cluster, we can help users and merchants solve the problems of dead links and network congestion, and greatly improve the Internet experience.

This function involves distributed technology, and there is still only one account in China. Only Google and Yahoo have applied similar functions in the world.

"In addition, this will have a greater promotion effect on PPC. To do PPC, all websites should be gathered together and ranked through algorithms. In the past, rankings were all temporarily captured caches.

, will cause huge waste and inconvenience. Microdot Mirror can capture all web pages for Microdot, and they will be arranged and combined more effectively."

Wang Xiaochuan was very excited and obviously very satisfied with this product.

Zhou Buqi listened in a daze, pretending to be calm, and said calmly: "The commercialization of Weidian still has a long way to go, and we must work harder."

Wang Xiaochuan said confidently: "Next year, Weidian's revenue can reach half of Baidu's."

Zhou Buqi said: "Baidu is working on the Japanese market."

Wang Xiaochuan shook his head, "That's a completely different business model. At least bidding rankings are notorious abroad. If you do this in Japan, you may be subject to legal risks."

Zhou Buqi was secretly surprised. He was able to create so much value without PPC. He was so greedy. "What do you think of Weidian?"

"Ah?" Wang Xiaochuan was slightly startled, "Are you going to Japan to work on a search engine?"

"right."

"This... I have never been to Japan, so I don't know anything about it."

"Um."

Zhou Buqi nodded, very unwillingly.

Wang Xiaochuan bit his lips and muttered: "Boss, Weidian has not really taken off in the domestic market yet. We have market share, but the road to commercialization... As you said, there is still a long way to go. I

I think we should stabilize the domestic market first. Moreover, even if we go to Japan to do search, I don’t think we should transfer the team from Weidian to parachute there.”

"oh?"

"The cultural atmosphere and values ​​in Europe and the United States are similar. One set of templates can conquer the European and American markets. But the Asian market is too complicated. There are four major religions and Confucian culture. Each country has its own set of templates.

Due to the special national conditions, it is difficult to achieve a set of templates that can be used all over the world. In China, Japan, South Korea, and Silicon Valley giants, almost all failed."

"That's the truth."

Zhou Buqi quite agrees with his point of view.

Wang Xiaochuan said: "Japan's Internet industry is much worse than that in China. I know this. Log in to some Japanese websites, even Yahoo Japan, and they are all like pirated websites, with slow response speed and poor web design. But in

In a special environment, good products may not necessarily win. Silicon Valley giants have repeatedly failed when they come to China, and domestic companies go overseas to South Korea and Japan. They cannot be as arrogant and self-righteous as Americans."

Zhou Buqi waved his hand and said, "Okay, we'll discuss this later. If that doesn't work, just acquire a search engine company in Japan, borrow their team and brand, and provide some technical support in China."

Wang Xiaochuan nodded, "This is a relatively simple method."

When Yahoo came to China, it adopted this model and acquired 3721. When Google and Microsoft came to China to do search, they started development from scratch, which is the same model as Baidu went to Japan.

After Wang Xiaochuan left, Zhou Buqi went to the refrigerator to get a bottle of Coke himself, and returned to his office to check his emails. The two secretaries were not there, looking for a house.

Most of the emails were from colleagues, some were for consultation, some were for business cooperation, some were for venture capital... Then, he saw a rather special email.

From Hurun.

When I opened the email, I was so angry!

This British guy!

The content of the email is very simple. It says that at the end of the month, this year's "Hurun Rich List" will be released. According to the Hurun team's investigation and interviews, they believe that Mr. Zhou Buqi ranks 35th in the country with a wealth of 15.8 billion yuan.

!

There are some other explanations. It is said that the richest man in the IT circle is Shi Yuzhu, who started his second business and achieved great success. With the help of "Conquest", he has 28 billion yuan.

Ranking second is Li Yanhong of Baidu, with a net worth of 18 billion yuan.

The third ranked one is Zhou Buqi!

In addition, fourth is Penguin's Ma Ge, with a net worth of 12 billion yuan; fifth is Shanda's Chen Tianqiao, with a net worth of 10 billion yuan; sixth is NetEase's Ding Sanshi, with a net worth of 8 billion yuan.

Among the top 100 richest people in the country, there are only 6 in the IT industry, and Zhou Buqi is one of them.

This is so nonsense.

At least Alibaba’s Ma Boss will definitely be shortlisted.

Zhou Buqi is a little unhappy, why should he be on the list when Lao Ma is not on the list?

Although Hurun's calculated wealth of 15.8 billion yuan is too far off. It was roughly estimated based on Ziweixing's A-round valuation of 12.5 billion U.S. dollars and Zhou Buqi's personal shareholding.

Even if it has shrunk significantly, the net worth of 15.8 billion is still staggering.

Zhou Buqi didn't want to be on the list. Having too much money would make people jealous. He didn't want to stand out too much, so he called Boss Ma and asked: "Old Ma, what's going on with the Hurun Rich List?"

"What's going on?"

"Hurun sent me an email and I said I would be on the list this year."

"Really?" Boss Ma looked very happy, "Congratulations!"

Zhou Buqi said angrily: "Congratulations! Among the hundred rich people, there are only six people in the IT circle, and I am the only one who is not eye-catching enough. Why are you not on the list?"

Boss Ma said: "I don't have enough wealth."

"Stop talking nonsense."

"It's not enough in the first place. When Alibaba went public in Hong Kong in November, the valuation given by investment banks... was about US$8 billion. I hold more than ten points of shares, you can do the math yourself."

Zhou Buqi said coldly: "Listing? You are spinning off the b2b business and listing it. The really powerful Taobao and Alipay are not included. The b2b business is worth 8 billion U.S. dollars, and Taobao is worth 18 billion U.S. dollars."

Boss Ma just laughed and didn't admit or deny it. There were too many things going on behind the scenes and it was inconvenient to talk about it.

Zhou Buqi said: "Tell me the truth, why weren't you on the list?"

Boss Ma said lazily: "Do you know how much money Hurun makes a year from his magazine?"

"How much can a broken magazine cost?"

"Hmph, let me tell you, it won't be less than 50 million!"

"Why?"

Zhou Buqi was quite surprised.

Magazines like "Hurun Report", which ranks wealth, have no real meaning except for gimmicks. How much can it sell for external sales? If I want to check the ranking, I just go online. Who will buy the magazine?

Boss Ma said calmly: "Hurun himself said that the ranking he gave is only a very small part. He listed one, but he may have missed ten."

"That's for sure. Based on the country's current development momentum, the number of rich people will not be small."

"Some of them were missed because of his insufficient investigation, and some... were just missed on purpose."

"So, you were deliberately missed by him? Why?" Zhou Buqi was a little indignant. "Half a year ago, that guy from Hurun also came to see me. We had a good talk. I didn't expect him to come to me all of a sudden.

All of a sudden."

Boss Ma asked: "Have you ordered his magazine?"

Zhou Buqi replied: "No."

Boss Ma asked: "Have you placed an advertisement in his magazine?"

Zhou Buqi replied: "No."

Boss Ma snorted coldly, "Aren't you a very clever boy? People have come to look for you. What do you mean, you can't understand? Why don't you give me some money to kill? Otherwise, how can he be a broken magazine?

Earn tens of millions? Last year, someone was unwilling to pay, so he got on board and almost hired someone to kill him, which almost caused a diplomatic incident."

Zhou Buqi was silent for a long time and said slowly: "So, you want to use money to place ads in Hurun's magazines?"

Boss Ma said calmly: "Alibaba put Taobao ads on it and spent 300,000."
Chapter completed!
