Rebirth: Return to 1991 to be the richest man

Chapter 1857 Future Development Focus

After hearing this, Chen Jianghai asked directly: "Why is such a product not open to the public? Instead, it is just an accessory?"

Ma Huyue quickly explained: "We are also preparing to launch a public version, which has been put on the agenda. However, we feel that this thing has no future and there is no profit point at all."

In [-], a Chinese version of ICQ appeared in Baodao Province, called CICQ.

This year, CICQ will launch a simplified Chinese version and be renamed PICQ in China.

At the same time, similar software also appeared in China, called Internet Elf.

Naturally, Ma Huyue would not let go of such a money-making software.

At this time, ICQ made a lot of money abroad and attracted a lot of people's attention.

Before founding Penguin, Ma Huyue planned to make a Chinese version of ICQ.

Finally, after some discussion with several entrepreneurial partners of the company, I gave up.

The reason is simple, this thing is simply not profitable in China.

Now Ma Huyue is doing this for a very simple reason.

The main reason was that Shencheng Telecom announced a bidding news at that time and wanted to buy a communication software similar to ICQ.

At that time, Ma Huyue's company had just started, and this was a deal worth fighting for in his opinion.

Under this circumstance, the predecessor of the famous Penguin, OICQ, came out.

As for the outcome of the bidding, of course there is no chance.

In fact, Shenzhen Telecom has already selected its partner, the Baodao Province company that developed CICQ.

"Mr. Chen, how about I open it for you to try?"

Ma Huyue could tell that Chen Jianghai was very interested in this software, so he took the initiative to say so.

Chen Jianghai was also looking forward to this thing. He smiled and nodded: "Okay, let me try it."

After hearing Chen Jianghai's answer, Ma Huyue quickly opened OICQ.

Chen Jianghai casually registered an account number 00007.

After using it briefly, Chen Jianghai had only one feeling: this is a rough room, and there are still many areas that need to be strengthened and improved.

However, the main body was finally built, which also demonstrated the ability of the Ma Huyue team.

"If I change a computer, will the friend list I added before still be there?" Chen Jianghai asked casually.

Ma Huyue was stunned for a moment and quickly replied: "It must be gone. It must be added again."

"In other words, this software can only be regarded as a stand-alone software?" Chen Jianghai couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

Ma Huyue thought for a moment, nodded awkwardly and said, "This is indeed the case now."

At this moment, he could already guess some of Chen Jianghai's meaning.

Obviously, in Chen Jianghai's eyes, their software still has quite a few drawbacks.

"Then why don't you make a network software so that you can see your friends list even if you change your computer?" Chen Jianghai suggested.

really……

Ma Huyue's cheeks turned slightly red and he said sheepishly: "Well... we don't have money to rent a server now."

Chen Jianghai was slightly startled when he heard that this was the reason.

Is the reason so simple?
But it is also understandable.

Today's Ma Huyue and others are really short of money, and their offices are so simple. Of course, they don't have the money to rent servers.

After chatting for a while, the other two founders of Penguin, Xu Chenhua and Chen Weitong, appeared in front of Chen Jianghai.

After work every day, they would gather here.

Chat about the future of the company, type some code, or just relax here.

"Xiao Ma, is this Mr. Chen?"

Xu Chenhua glanced at Chen Jianghai and asked in a low voice.

Ma Huyue quickly gave the three of them a brief introduction, and then sat down separately.At this time, Xu Chenhua and Chen Weitong were both very excited.

They had heard Ma Huyue say before that he knew Chen Jianghai.

I didn't expect to see Chen Jianghai here today.

Still in the company founded by several of them.

When Ma Huyue told them that Chen Jianghai would come, they couldn't believe it.

Seeing so many people coming, Chen Jianghai directly put forward his ideas.

"I want to invest in your OICQ, what do you think?"

It can only be said that happiness came too suddenly, and Ma Huyue and the others were not mentally prepared.

More importantly, Chen Jianghai invested in OIQC, not their paging system.

But for them, no matter what the project is, as long as Chen Jianghai likes it and is willing to invest, that's good news.

Ma Huyue asked excitedly: "Mr. Chen, are you serious?"

No wonder he reacted like this, because judging from the situation in the past few months, the paging system they worked so hard to build was a joke.

The system has been in place for so long, and their promotion has not had much effect at all.

After people heard about their system, they immediately lost confidence.

Anyone with a discerning eye knows that there is no market for pagers now.

The emergence of PHS, the pioneer, has brought about major changes in the communications industry.

At this time, Ma Huyue had lost confidence.

He doesn't know what the company will do next.

Now if Chen Jianghai is willing to invest, it will naturally be great news for him.

With Chen Jianghai's investment, it means that the company will not have to worry about funds for a period of time in the future.

In this way, Ma Huyue can have more energy to focus on how to plan the company's future.

With time and funds, Ma Huyue believes that it will not be difficult for Penguin to develop.

Not only himself, but several other company partners also had the same idea.

Xu Chenhua and the two of them were looking at Chen Jianghai nervously. They couldn't believe their ears.

The famous Qiuhai boss Chen Jianghai actually wants to invest in their company?
For them, this was as unreal as a dream, so they didn't get used to it for a while.

Chen Jianghai smiled slightly and said: "Of course it is true! But I have a condition, that is, your company's future development focus must be on OICQ."

Upon hearing this condition, Ma Huyue and the others were stunned.

"Mr. Chen, are you optimistic about instant messaging software?"

Ma Huyue reacted very quickly and asked immediately.

Chen Jianghai raised the corner of his mouth and said: "I wonder if you have heard of CC abroad?" "

"I've heard about it.

Ma Huyue said quickly, "That software was advertised as free, so it must have lost a lot of money. It's only a matter of time before it goes bankrupt." "

Chen Jianghai said calmly: "This is my company abroad."

Hearing what Chen Jianghai said, Ma Huyue felt a little embarrassed.

He did not expect that CC was actually the company owned by Chen Jianghai.

For a moment, Ma Huyue didn't know what to say.

Chen Jianghai then said: "You just expressed your opinion, I won't blame you."

Ma Huyue felt relieved and asked Chen Jianghai, "Mr. Chen, can you tell us about this?"

When Xu Chen spoke, they also looked at Chen Jianghai curiously, wondering what he would say next.
